Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Hanguan again, only to see that there seemed to be infinite deep meaning in his eyes, so he also bowed slightly to his younger brother.

The brothers went out, and Qing Boding said: "You go to the cosmetics store and take a look, Grandma Zhu is there every day, I see her, greet me and your mother, this child is sensible, he comes to see us every three or five days, and he takes a lot of things every time he comes to the door, which really makes us unhappy." ”

"Dad, don't worry, I know all this," Qingwan said with a smile: "I said, there is nothing big in the shop, and it is not too late to go back in the afternoon." I'll check your mother and your mother's pulse to see how your body is now. ”

"After taking the pills you brought, plus your eldest sister is here, your mother and I have felt much tougher recently," Qing Boding stretched out his wrist and said with a smile.

Qingwan concentrated on the pulse and smiled: "It's really like this, father, mother, as long as you are all fine, we can rest assured as children." ”

The maid came in with tea, and Qingwan talked to her father and mother about trivial matters at home, and asked if everything was okay, so she could feel at ease.

Lunch is only for three people. After the meal, Qing Boding urged: "Hurry up to the shop, it's not too late to come back and talk in the evening." ”

Qingwan thought about it, and then got up: "Dad, mother, then I'll go first." ”

The capital is still full of traffic, lively and prosperous, and before I got to the shop, I saw that the outside was full of people, and it was crowded.

"Second sister-in-law!" Lu Xiufang was busy working in the store, her forehead was full of sweat, when she saw her, she was pleasantly surprised, and she grabbed her hand when she came up: "I received a letter from my second brother, saying that you are coming back, I have been looking forward to it day and night, and just now I said that I would go to your house to ask, but I didn't expect you to fall from the sky!" ”

"Seeing so many people outside, business is not bad?" Qingwan asked with a smile.

Lu Xiufang's brows suddenly furrowed, and her voice was lowered: "Second sister-in-law, come with me to the back, this matter is very tricky, tell you slowly." ”

Qingwan nodded, followed her to the backyard, and let the maids retreat, Lu Xiufang said 1510: "Second sister-in-law!" If it weren't for the urgency, I wouldn't have written that letter to you, these days, I've really been in a hurry! You see so many people waiting to buy goods outside, our shop business is good, every day is like this, but the stock is limited, if the secret recipe theft can't be solved, the stock is gone, then how can it be good? ”

"Don't worry, you speak slowly," Qingwan said, "How did you find out?" ”

"Alas," Lu Xiufang sighed: "Blame me for this, I originally locked the secret recipe you left behind before leaving, I was afraid that something would go wrong, and it had been kept in the bedroom of Zhu's mansion. I didn't go back for a few days and nights, Zhang Luo made goods, I thought that with me here, there should be no problem with the box, but when I got up early that morning, I went to the cabinet to take a look, which frightened me, and the box disappeared! ”

"You mean, it was taken away in the inner room?"

"That's right," Lu Xiufang said with annoyance, "I think ordinary people in the inner room can't get in, how can there be a problem?" At that time, I called everyone in the shop, and after careful questioning, no one would admit it, and then I ordered all the rooms to be searched, and guess what? ”

"Did the guy in the shop really take it?"

"I didn't expect it," Lu Xiufang said, "I actually found a box in Cheng Yong's room!" ”

Qingwan was also taken aback: "Wouldn't it?" I've always seen Cheng Yong as a responsible person, not like the kind of person who steals chickens and dogs. ”

"No, that's how I've always seen it." Lu Xiufang nodded: "Second sister-in-law, since I took over the shop, I also know something about these guys, originally I thought Cheng Yong was the most reliable and shrewd, but I didn't expect him to do such a thing!" ”

"This is not a trivial matter, it is related to a person's life, and it cannot be rashly determined. Didn't you just say that you only found the box? ”

"The problem now is here, the sheepskin box is indeed in Chengyongfang, but the secret recipe in the box has never been found!" Lu Xiufang said, regretting it: "If I can memorize all the secret recipes, I don't have to take them to the shop, people are lazy, and their brains are lazy, and it turns out that such a big thing happened!" If this secret recipe is taken by another cosmetics store, it will be amazing! Now there are several companies in the capital that are eyeing us, originally they dominated the business of the capital, but now most of them have been robbed by our shop, and they have been ready to move, I am afraid that the case will not be solved for a long time, and if it is known, things will be complicated! ”

"Have you ever thought that the theft of this secret recipe was premeditated, maybe it was done by the people in those shops?"

"This Zhu Yan also told me," Lu Xiufang said, "But now that there is no evidence at hand, how can you determine who took it?" I didn't even find out what was going on at home, after I found the box, I was going to report to the official, Zhu Yan said, it's better not to make a noise first, so as not to make a fuss known to everyone, the city is full of wind and rain, first check carefully in the shop, I will imprison Cheng Yong, but he resisted death, and insisted that he was framed by someone, Changyong said it with his own eyes, and said that he had seen it with his own eyes, Cheng Yong had secretly entered and left my inner room the night before, and I wanted to interrogate them again today, just the second sister-in-law, you came back. ”

"Changyong said he saw it?"

"Yes," Lu Xiufang nodded: "It was said that at night, I saw Cheng Yong take out something, but he didn't see it clearly." ”

Qingwan pondered for a moment: "Don't rush yet. There are many guests outside, and we can't show that something is wrong, how many of our goods do we have? ”

"It's only enough to sell for two days."

"It's okay," Qingwan said: "I remember the recipe, help you prepare three days' worth of goods first, and then check it when the store is closed in the evening." Don't worry, within three days, you will definitely be able to get things out! ”

"Second sister-in-law, with you, I will be down-to-earth," Lu Xiufang almost burst into tears: "It's all my fault, I have the trust of the second sister-in-law, I didn't take good care of the secret recipe, and I didn't run the shop."

"How can I blame you for this?" Qingwan hurriedly said: "No matter who took it, I can already be sure that this is something that someone has been deliberately doing for a long time, and it can't be prevented." The shop is in your hands, and the business is booming, so I should thank you. ”

"Second sister-in-law" Lu Xiufang choked up and couldn't speak.

"Okay, wipe your tears, wash your face, and hurry to the front to take care of it. I'll help you stock up in the back. ”

Lu Xiufang answered, hurriedly freshened up, and went to greet the guests. Here, Qingwan was mixing makeup in the back, and she was busy for most of the day, until it was completely dark, and it was all done.

"Okay, the guests have all left," Lu Xiufang returned to the backyard with a tired face: "Second sister-in-law, you can rest too!" Anyway, it can be sold for two days, and it will be too late to prepare tomorrow. ”

"It doesn't matter," Qingwan said, "It's all done, what's the matter, it's already closed?" ”

"Guys are cleaning, second sister-in-law, you can eat something first, and then go to the front."

"I'm not tired," Qingwan is still in the mood to eat at this time? "I just sent someone to my house, told my father and mother, and said that you left me here for dinner, so that they don't worry. Wait a minute, I'll ask. ”

The two came out together, only to see that all the guys should sweep and wipe, all of them were busy in an orderly manner, but when they saw Qingwan, their faces were full of nervousness.

"Quick, get me a box of gardenia!" Suddenly, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl hurriedly broke in and said breathlessly.

"This girl, I'm sorry, our store is closed, please come back tomorrow." Chang Yong hurriedly stepped forward and said.

The girl was taken aback and was about to cry: "No, I have to take it back today!" Otherwise, I beg you, sell me a box anyway! ”

"Girl, I'm really sorry, tomorrow's goods haven't arrived, where can I find you now?" Changyong was also very embarrassed and said, "In this case, you better come tomorrow!" I'll leave you a box at any time! ”

"No, no," the girl begged, "do well, save me!" If I can't buy the gardenia dew back today, I'm afraid I'll lose my life."

Before the words fell, only a plop was heard, and the girl passed out on the ground!

For a while, the people in the shop panicked, and came over with all hands and feet, shouting, pinching, and pouring.

But the girl was as if she had died, motionless.

"This woman's qi and blood are too weak, take the needle first!" Qingwan separated the crowd, stepped forward and touched the pulse, and immediately said.

Changyong had already brought the silver needles prepared in the shop, and Qingwan kept his eyes on it, and stabbed it at the acupuncture points!

After a moment, the girl slowly opened her eyes and spit out a few words with difficulty: "How am I?"

"This girl, you fainted just now, thanks to my owner who saved you," Changyong said busily, standing next to him.

"Thank you" The girl's breath is faint, "I"

"Don't talk yet," Qingwan said, "You're too weak now, so carry her to the backyard and make another bowl of ginseng soup." ”

"Ginseng soup?" The guys were stunned, and someone couldn't help but say: "Owner, there are only two old ginseng trees in our shop, if you go to buy them, the pharmacy is almost closed now"

"What to buy? Just take out the old ginseng and cook it immediately, right? ”

"What?" Now the guys were even more surprised, "That's a priceless treasure, it's a wild ginseng outside the gate."

"Is human life important or medicinal herbs important?" Seeing them struggling, Qingwan said sharply: "Don't you listen to my words anymore?" ”

The guys were so frightened that they hurriedly agreed and went to the back to make ginseng soup.

Here Changyong and another guy carefully carried the girl to the backyard and placed her on the bed in the guest room, the girl had tears in her eyes, looked at Qingwan, and wanted to say something, but she tried her best to speak, and her voice was still intermittent.

"I know, you have something to say to me, don't you?"
