Chapter 30: Preventing Thieves
Qin Li nodded happily, "Okay, good." ”
When she watched the third prince leave the courtyard and return to the bedroom, she told Qinghe the good news.
“…… I really didn't expect that the third prince would tell me what his name was. Qin Li's eyes showed irrepressible joy and said.
Qinghe saw Qin Li smile, his eyes instantly bent into two crescents, and he couldn't help but snicker.
"Miss, you see, you only know the name of the third prince now, and you are very happy. If you know the mind of the third prince, I am afraid that I will be happy to paint his portrait. ”
Hearing Qinghe say this, Qin Li suddenly remembered that the original owner did have such a hobby. In his spare time, the original owner would paint portraits of his relatives, such as his grandparents and parents.
But in the memory left by the original owner, she never painted a portrait of the third son when she was a child, let alone a portrait of Fu Yu, a man with little affection.
Qin Li glanced at Qinghe in embarrassment, "If I have that spare time, I'm afraid I can draw a few more medicinal herb drawings." ”
The third son is just her savior, the apprentice of her father's friend. She doesn't have much idea about other people, what does she do with their portraits?
"Really?" Qinghe saw that Qin Li avoided her and looked at her, knowing that what the young lady said at this time was not what she was talking about, so she asked.
Qin Li said half-jokingly and half-seriously:
"Really, of course it's true. You think, whose portrait I paint, I can't paint the portrait of the third son, can I? ”
"Why?" Qinghe couldn't understand Qin Li's thoughts, and said:
"Who said to the servant, as long as it can be with the bastard thing surnamed Fu, lift the vagueness. In the future, even if you paint and sell money to make money and open a pharmacy, you have to work hard to become the first doctor in the world? ”
That's what she did. Qin Li didn't deny it, "Yes, I said that. But I didn't say, whose portrait I was going to paint, did I? ”
"You can paint, needless to say." Qinghe pursed his lips and smiled.
Qin Li looked at Qinghe and felt that this woman was quite funny when she was laughing with her. In fact, when she was in the new world, she was all three, but Qinghe in front of her was only eighteen years old.
Her mental age is naturally older than Qinghe's.
Now chatting with a little woman like Qinghe makes her feel very relaxed.
Qin Li smiled evilly and said:
"I don't know if anyone remembers, she once told me that the third son is much better than the bastard surnamed Fu. You think, if I draw the portrait of the third prince, I won't be able to steal it one day. In this way, I lost more than just a painting. ”
Qinghe sneered, "Miss, you're too careful, aren't you?" You see, wasn't the only female thief in our mansion, Mo Yu, already tied up to the mansion to be punished? ”
There is no maid in the house, and the young lady is still afraid that she will lose things again?
As Qinghe spoke, he looked at Qin Li's makeup box and said, "Miss, since Moyu is no longer in the mansion, in the past few days, the objects in Miss's makeup box have been the same. Why don't you go and see it again? ”
The implication is that what Miss fears will not happen.
If there is no thief in the house, the paintings drawn by the young lady will not be stolen by anyone.
In this way, I am not afraid to listen to anyone, the young lady broke off the marriage contract with Fu Gongzi on the front foot, and went home on the back foot to draw a portrait of the third son.
Qin Li didn't think so, shook his head slightly, and told Qinghe what he thought in his heart:
"If it is true as you say, there are no thieves in our house, then everything is easy to say. But I also observed it secretly, and I felt that some things were not as good as we imagined. I'm still worried in my heart, I'm afraid that in our mansion, in addition to Mo Yuer, there will be other thieves. ”
"It is precisely because I have concerns about this that I have repeatedly instructed you not to mention it to other girls, I recently want people to clean up the abandoned firewood room, and wait for the third son to send the pheasants back, and raise the pheasants in the firewood room." Qin Li told him frankly.
Hearing this, Qinghe fell into deep thought.
The young lady does not joke with her in these aspects. The young lady said that there may be thieves in the house, and she should have seen some clues, but she didn't say it clearly.
After thinking about it for a long time, Qinghe finally remembered one thing, and also thought of another servant girl in the house.
In order to avoid that what he said would be overheard by the people standing outside the door, Qinghe approached Qin Li's side and said softly:
"Miss, did you think that your pills were stolen and think that there are still thieves in the house?"
Qin Li's eyes flashed with a hint of relief, Qinghe, this girl, was really good to her. If there is something, I will never hide it from her, as long as I think of it in my heart, I will tell her.
Not long ago, the third prince gave her father a few pills, which were contained in a quaint little wooden box. Her father took the little wooden box to her mother, so that the next morning, he would come with her mother to see her and take care of her pills.
Her mother took the small wooden box and put it in the bedroom. Who knows, just one night later, the little wooden box is gone.
This happened after Mo Yu poisoned her medicine and was locked up in an abandoned firewood room. Her mother had privately investigated the matter and had only one result:
The small wooden box was stolen by Moyu.
Her mother didn't believe it.
Because Moyu was heavily punished, he not only suffered external injuries, but also internal injuries. When no one went to the abandoned firewood room to release Moyu, how could Moyu escape and go to her parents' bedroom to steal pills?
But Mozhu was sure that the pill was stolen by Moyu, and said that she had seen it with her own eyes.
This matter was found to Mozhu, and her mother did not continue to investigate.
But she knew in her heart that it was her mother who wanted to give Mozhu a step down. After all, Mozhu came to the Qin Mansion to serve their family and took care of them for many years. Her mother had already driven away Moyu, and it was not good that within the same month, Mozhu would be driven away.
As soon as Qin Li thought of those things, there was a hint of unwillingness in his eyes. But in front of Qinghe, she didn't have much to say. He just nodded slightly, "hmm".
Qinghe gave Qin Li a knowing look, and it seemed that his guess was correct. In the future, you will have to watch out for that thief.
He told Qin Li in a very soft voice: "Miss, after you have suffered a little, when you wake up again, it will be not the same as before. Before going through that incident, if the maid mentioned these things to the young lady, the young lady either didn't want to listen to them, or didn't let the maid mention them again. ”
"I always think that if there is a thief in the family, it is also a scandal, and I can't say more. Just like the Yun'er girl next door came to see Miss and mentioned to Miss that Fu Gongzi had a good relationship outside, and he was a girl surnamed Li in the east of the city. The young lady listened to it and didn't take it seriously. ”
