Chapter 8: Clues

Afternoon.

Evening Song basks in the sun in the courtyard, and Aoba follows along.

The sky is blue and the white clouds are long. The warm sun covers the whole body, the warm breeze blows in the face, and the falling flowers float down. The fragrance in the courtyard is pervasive, refreshing and refreshing.

"Is there any news from the Qingshui Pavilion?"

"There is no news for the time being. It's just that Biyun next to the second lady has something wrong these days. ”

"What's going on?"

"Yesterday, I heard Cuiyun say that it seems to be for silver. In the past few days, Biyun has also been a little worried. ”

"Tell Cuiyun to be optimistic about her. There is a timely reply to the news. ”

Aoba hurriedly responded, "Miss, since the bracelet incident has been determined to be done by the second lady." Why don't we tell the old lady and let the old lady call the shots. ”

"It's not the best policy to tell my grandmother, I'm free to advocate this."

Although Aoba didn't understand Miss's approach, she still obeyed Miss's orders.

When Song and Qingye walked into the house, they saw Qinglan cleaning up the bottles and cans.

"Qinglan, it's already very clean here."

"Sister Qinglan is an idle person."

Qinglan listened and glanced at Qingye.

"You girl has learned to tease me now, huh!"

Aoba hurriedly moved, "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

"Alright, alright, you two go down and rest first."

About two teas passed.

Aoba got the news from Cuiyun, so he hurriedly reported it to the evening song.

"Miss Yu, there's news from Cuiyun."

"What's the news?"

"Biyun stole jewelry from the second lady today and went to Ruyi Xuan to sell it."

"Do you see what kind of jewelry it is? Has anyone else found out? ”

"Listening to Cuiyun, it's about a red object. The specifics are not clear. It shouldn't have been discovered by anyone else, and now only Cuiyun knows about it. ”

"You quickly go to Ruyi Xuan to see if you can redeem the jewelry sold by Biyun, regardless of how much silver. Be careful, don't alarm others, and go back quickly. ”

"Yes, slave and maid will go."

Half an hour later, Aoba came back to say goodbye to the evening song.

"Miss, Ruyixuan's shopkeeper said that he couldn't do this, and he had to go back to their master's house, and asked the slave to go back in two days."

"You say, the matter of silver is easy to discuss?"

The slave said, but the shopkeeper's attitude was resolute. He said that he could only give an answer to the slave and maid after asking the master's house. ”

After listening to the evening song, he thought about it, and secretly said that it was not good.

Immediately instructed Aoba, "You quickly go and inform Steward Wang, and ask him to send someone to the front door and back door of Ruyi Xuan to guard, don't alarm the people inside." Let them keep an eye on someone to deliver a letter to Ruyi Xuan for the past two days.

Then he sent men to the gates of the city to watch in which direction the messenger went. Remember, tread carefully and don't get noticed. ”

"The slave and maid understand, so go and inform the king's steward."

After Aoba left, Qinglan looked at the evening song.

"Miss, this is to know who is behind Ruyixuan?"

"That's right. Qingye can't redeem the jewelry with no amount of silver, so it can be seen that the jewelry is related to Ruyi Xuan, and it is also related to the people behind the scenes. And I suspect that Biyun stole the bracelet. ”

"Miss can just know the origin of the bracelet through Ruyi Xuan."

"I hope so.

Qinglan, you go and inform Cuiyun and ask her to come to me on the grounds that she saw Biyun stealing the jewelry of the second lady. Remember, hide it from others and don't let the people of Qingshui Pavilion know. ”

"Yes."

Evening.

Qinglan said to the evening song and said, "Miss, Biyun is here."

"Let her in, and you all go down first."

Biyun walked in, uneasy.

"I've seen Miss Three."

"Biyun, I like people who tell the truth. As long as you're willing to tell the truth, I'll try to keep you.

If I tell the second sister now, you took her jewelry. What will happen in the end, you know in your heart. As long as you tell me everything you know, I will do what I say. ”

Biyun hesitated slightly, "Third Miss, what you said is true?" ”

"You can only trust me now and think it through for yourself."

Biyun seemed to hesitate for a while, and finally made up his mind.

"Third Miss, the slave said.

A few days ago, the slave maid was sick and urgently needed silver. The slave maid put all her monthly money into it, but it was still not enough.

The slave maid thought about borrowing some from the second lady, but after hearing this, the second lady scolded the slave and maid and drove her out. The slave really didn't expect that the second lady would be like this.

The slave maid thought of some time ago, the second lady and Bizhu once came back from outside, and Bizhu was holding a very beautiful box in her hand. The second lady also instructed Bizhu to put it away. Don't let others find out, you don't have to put your usual jewelry together.

They didn't notice the slave when they spoke, so the slave watched Bizhu put the box away and walked out. The slave was curious for a moment, so she wanted to open it and take a look. After opening it, I saw a very beautiful red bracelet, and the slave quietly put it back.

The second lady refused to borrow the slave's money, and the slave and maid really had no choice but to make such a decision. ”

"If you do this, Bizhu won't find out?"

"No, the slave has observed it for a few days before, and Bizhu hasn't looked at the box since that day."

Wan Ge pursed her lips and smiled, "It's a little clever."

You go back first, and as usual, Cuiyun will help you keep it a secret. Remember what to say and what not to say, and I'll let you know if necessary. ”

"Yes, the slave and maid stepped back first."
