Seeing that the housekeeper with bright red eyes finally swallowed his breath, Yan'er stared at Lin Jin'er and was about to ask.
"Why are you helping me?"
"I think he bullied you?"
"What room are you from, why haven't I seen you?"
"I'm following Mother Zhang now, and I haven't divided the master yet."
Yan'er nodded, and then said.
"You go back with me to see Grandma."
"Why? If you kill someone, I won't say it. ”
Lin Jin'er pretended to look at the maid with a simple face, and the maid also looked at Lin Jin'er's eyes, and after a while, she seemed to have figured out something, and said.
"Then you shouldn't have seen what happened today."
"I haven't been here today."
After speaking, Lin Jin'er was about to sneak into the housekeeper's room.
"What are you doing here?"
"The housekeeper took my brother's burden, and I came to find it."
Yan'er didn't speak, and followed Lin Jin'er into the house. Through Dashan's description of herself, Lin Jin'er quickly found the gray-blue furoshiki, and when she opened the bag, she saw that in addition to a pair of brand-new insoles, there were also a little bit of broken silver and some copper plates.
The maid saw that what Lin Jin'er said was good, and she also lowered her guard a little, and then asked.
"Since you are in the hands of Zhang's mother, why are things being taken away by the housekeeper?"
"My brother is in the steward's charge, but I can't tell you who my brother is, and you sue the province."
Lin Jin'er's righteousness made Yan'er feel a little good, and she finally let go of her hostility.
"Then go back, thank you for today's business."
If it weren't for Lin Jin'er's move, maybe Yan'er might not be able to do it today, although she brought a weapon over, but she was obviously not a practitioner, and the housekeeper was a big man, and it was not easy to deal with if she was blind.
"Let's just pretend that we haven't seen each other, and we will keep our secrets."
Lin Jin'er knew that although it was not a big deal to come over and steal an insoles, she was really going to be arrested, and at most she would be fined a month's monthly money, and it was the right thing to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
"Hmm."
Yan'er was worried that the young grandmother would blame her for not being neat enough, so she naturally didn't want to say anything about Lin Jin'er, so the two of them smiled tacitly and went back to their respective places.
…………………………
"Here you go, is this it?"
"You really have the ability, you stole it in just one day, it seems that you really like that hero."
Dashan took the insole handed by Lin Jin'er, his eyes were red, and then he relaxed and said.
"Because I don't want it, I'll buy you candy to eat."
"I don't want it either."
Lin Jin'er knew that Dashan Yue didn't have much money, and if she really ran away, she would definitely have a hard time along the way.
"Oh no!"
The two men were still pushing each other for a few pieces of broken silver, and a voice in the distance interrupted the conversation between the two people.
"What's going on?"
Oyama stood up and looked at the place where the voice came from, then asked.
"It's the butler who died."
Lin Jin'er shrugged her shoulders, and when Dashan heard this, she sat on the ground.
"You, in order to help me steal this insoles, you actually killed Steward Zhang?"
The whole body trembled so badly that Lin Jin'er didn't want to explain, and after a while, Dashan seemed to have made some decision, grabbed Lin Jin'er's hand and said.
"Let's run today, I'll take you with me, if you really can't run away, I'll say that I killed the housekeeper."
tremblingly hid the insoles in his arms, and the mountain was about to open the back door and drag Lin Jin'er out, but Lin Jin'er stopped him and said.
"Death is death, but I didn't kill him, he was already dead in the courtyard when I went, his face was full of blood, and there was a bowl of overturned soup on the ground, he should have offended the ruthless subordinate and was poisoned."
Saying this, Dashan breathed a sigh of relief, and then nodded with a serious face.
"He's really too much of a bully, if I didn't do it, I would have wanted to kill him."
"I don't know about that."
Lin Jin'er didn't want to involve herself in it, after all, when she just went to find the housekeeper, she might be seen by someone on the road.
"You don't know, but there are a lot of men who hate him."
Oyama explained, then listened to the movement.
"You should go back quickly, maybe you will be called for questioning in a moment."
"Hmm."
Lin Jin'er instructed Dashan to say two words, asking him not to tell others what he had just said, and then slowly moved towards the firewood room.
As soon as they walked to the gate of the courtyard, Zhang's mother and a leader in charge were already standing in the open space.
"One by one, you guys said what they were going to do."
At this time, Lin Jin'er also quietly walked to the back, thinking about what was still imperfect in her words.
"You say."
Zhang's mother pointed at Lin Jin'er, and then crossed her waist.
"I first went to the grandmother to deliver something, and then came back to deliver the errand, and then found a housekeeper Zhang."
"What?"
As soon as Lin Jin'er said this, the person in charge immediately took two steps forward and held her.
Lin Jin'er didn't panic and continued.
"But halfway through, I noticed that my sleeve was torn, and I thought it wasn't appropriate, so I came back to mend my clothes."
As she spoke, Lin Jin'er raised her arm and asked Mama Zhang to look at her sleeve, Mama Zhang nodded, and then said.
"Steward Zhang is young, Lin Jin'er is so thin, she really can't beat her, the key is that she and Steward Zhang hardly know each other."
Although Mama Zhang is usually fierce, she still protects this group of little girls at critical moments.
The steward glanced at Zhang's mother, and then said.
"It's all said that it's poisoned, so what strength is needed."
"Then it is even more impossible to be from my side, first, we have no grudge or grudge with Steward Zhang, come, we don't even have a small kitchen here, it is impossible to send food to him."
The steward looked at Mama Zhang's shrew-like appearance, and then at Lin Jin'er's indifferent expression, and nodded after pondering for a while.
"What Mama Zhang said is good, but Steward Zhang and you seem to be relatives, right?"
As soon as she said this, Zhang's mother became even more angry, picked up the broom and threw it at the person in charge.
"I've been waiting for the family since I was a child, and if you talk like this, I'm going to find the old lady."
After speaking, Zhang's mother was still angry, and scolded a few words in a row, and finally the person in charge kept apologizing, and Zhang's mother spared him.
Seeing the steward limping away with her shoulders covered, Mama Zhang glanced at Lin Jin'er, and then said.
"Hurry up and go to bed, when is it?"
After speaking, he grabbed Lin Jin'er's wrist and went back to his house.
"Mom Zhang, what are you looking for me?"
Lin Jin'er stood in the house, naturally knowing that Zhang's mother had something to ask herself.
"Don't be afraid, of course I know that it wasn't Steward Zhang who you killed, and you have no grievances with him, but you should see who did it, right?"
Mother Zhang's eyes were shrewd, Lin Jin'er was stunned for a moment, and then stayed in place with a stupid expression.
"Just looking at the back, I was scared and hurried back."
