The little girl opposite exudes the fragrance of gardenias, and the taste is very light, if there is nothing but just right.

This is the taste hidden in the depths of Shen Xiao's memory, every time he wants to remember what happened after the amnesia, there is only this familiar gardenia fragrance.

It doesn't smell like it's smoked on her clothes, it's flower dew, does she bathe with it?

The last time I passed by a shop that sold flower dew, he bought two bottles of flower dew, and when he came back, he felt that a big man was too sissy to use flower dew, so he gave the flower dew to Ping An Joy and let them take a bath with flower dew.

"Shen Sigongzi?"

The little girl's soft voice sounded in his ears again, Shen Xiao hurriedly put away the reverie just now, raised his eyes, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Hua Jingyao had no choice but to patiently repeat the question just now: "Have you inquired about the whereabouts of Yuan Laozuo?" ”

It turned out to be asking Yuan Lao what he had done.

Shen Xiao actually felt a trace of disappointment in his heart.

But he was soon relieved, he originally wanted to discuss this matter with Miss Huada, how did he get into the carriage, he remembered it crankily.

"There is something strange about what Yuan Lao has done......"

Shen Xiao told him what he had inquired about from Yin Zhutou, and as he spoke, Hua Jingyao asked at the same time, and the two of them asked and answered, talking about stopping, and when the talk came to an end, it was already an hour later.

Sting shouted loudly outside the carriage, "Girl, my eldest brother is back." ”

A touch of annoyance flashed in Shen Xiao's eyes, come back and come back, what are you doing so loudly, is this to bombard him away?

Hua Jingyao was very happy and said to Shen Xiao: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, I'll ask Shi Jia first if they have gained anything." ”

Shen Xiao rolled his eyelids, how did Miss Hua see that he was in a hurry to leave? He had nowhere to go, and the Guogong Mansion was deserted, so he didn't want to go back.

"Hmm." Shen Sigongzi bowed slightly, as if he was a little reluctant, and like the indifference and alienation unique to the children of nobles.

Xiao Ai lifted the curtain, and a cool breeze came in from outside, and Shen Xiao subconsciously moved his body forward, blocking the coldness in front of him.

Shi Jia said: "Girl, according to your orders, we only checked a few shops with cold business, and there are nine such shops. Among them, there are seven shops, and there are people of the same age as Qiao Wenlian. Three were shopkeepers, one was a bookkeeper, and the other two were men. ”

Hua Jingyao frowned slightly, and said, "What are these nine shops selling?" ”

"There are five pen and ink shops, all of them are also doing pleadings for a living, here is very close to the yamen, there have always been a lot of shops that do this kind of business, every year there are not able to open and do not do, every year there are new ones, now it is the New Year, there is no complaint in the yamen, they have no business; There is also a fan shop, which mainly sells women's fans, and there is no business in the cold winter wax moon, and the business will gradually improve after the beginning of spring; There is another shop that sells southern pastries, this shop is newly opened, it should not be in the right place, it would be better if it was opened on Suzhou Street, by the way, this shop is being subleased; And two more ......"

When Shi Jia said this, he raised his eyes to look at Shen Xiao, who was sitting in the wind, and was speechless for a while.

"What's wrong with the other two?" Hua Jingyao asked.

Shi Jia had no choice but to continue: "There are two other industries of Yongguo Mansion, no, the entire shop on Yamen East Street is Yongguo Mansion, but only the innermost two shops are not rented out, they are Yongguo Mansion's own business, these two are selling antiques, why are they divided into two, instead of combining the two shops into one, the small one doesn't know, but all the shops that make a living like this kind of business, as the saying goes, don't open for a year, open for a year, so they are deserted on weekdays." The little one remembers that these two antique shops have been open for some years, and the little one often passes by there, but he has never entered. ”

Shen Xiao frowned, a while ago, he looked at the account books every day, there seemed to be two antique shops on Yamen East Street, as for why he opened two doors instead of one, he didn't know, and he didn't ask, maybe these two shops were older than his age.

But it's true that the business of these two shops is not good, but it is their own house, and all the shops on Yamen East Street are rented out, and it is not bad that these two lose money.

Suddenly, he felt something stabbing him in the back, in the back? By the way, just now he moved forward, and now across a small tea table, behind him sat Miss Huada.

Thinking of this, Shen Sigongzi's back tensed, like a tight bow that was about to burst!

"What's wrong?" He didn't look back, and his voice was as stiff as his body.

Hua Jingyao withdrew her outstretched fingers and asked, "The guys in those two shops are all born in your house, or were they recruited outside?" ”

Shen Sigongzi was stunned, how could he know about such a complicated matter?

As the only surviving heir of the Yongguo Mansion, how could he even know who the guys in a certain shop were, Shen Sigongzi's head was injured and he still hasn't healed, it is not easy for him to remember that there are still two shops.

"Uncle Xiang should know." Shen Xiao said.

"Then who are the suspicious people in these two shops?" Hua Jingyao asked.

Shen Xiao was stunned, and then reacted that Miss Hua was talking to Shi Jia.

Shi Jia said: "It's Mr. Tent, among the nine shops, only the shop in Yongguo Mansion has a tent, but there is only one Mr. Tent in the two shops, Mr. Wang, who is in his early forties, polite and polite, and is a scholar at first glance." ”

These nine shops are all in a deserted business, and such shops will not hire a separate account room, most of them are the owners and shopkeepers, and then the account room, and their relatives are partners.

That is, the Yongguo Mansion has a big business, so it will set up a tent in the two shops that have little business.

Shen Xiao finally understood at this time, it turned out that after checking and checking, he actually found their Yongguo Mansion.

"I'll take a look." Shen Sigongzi was about to go out.

"Don't", Hua Jingyao stopped him, "If that account gentleman is really Qiao Wenlian, if you rush over like this, you will be startled, Shen Sigongzi, have you never been to those two shops?" ”

Shen Xiao snorted: "I haven't been there." ”

"Yes, you have never been there, and now it has suddenly passed, and anyone who looks at it will know that you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace." Hua Jingyao said.

"Then let's go ask Uncle Xiang." Shen Xiao said.
