After the incident slowly faded, Su Wei quickly left, and after returning to the Flower Dance Workshop, she didn't call me again for a long time. She didn't worry about me staying alone in Banjinghuayuan, and deliberately told Ah Mao Chang to take care of me, after all, this family, that is, Ah Mao Chang, can make us trust.

"Miss, the police can't find any clues about Qijun's matter, and inform us that the case will be closed if there are no new clues." Ah Mao Chang stood behind me and said to me.

"Yes, I'm coming back this time for this, is there anything strange happening these days?" I sniffed the tea leaves while sipping the lid on them.

"Except for the incident when Qiu Feng moved back, nothing other weird happened."

"By the way, what about the sachet you had before?" Mao Chang suddenly lowered his head and looked at me.

"Sachets?"

"Is it the sachet that Qijun left behind?"

Ah Mao nodded, looking a little nervous, which made me have to be a little wary.

"I forgot where I put the sachet, maybe I accidentally threw it away when I was packing up." I pretended to be careless and drank down a cup of hot tea.

Then, I pretended to have something to do and went out, and asked Ah Mao to wait for me outside the door.

Seeing that Ah Mao Chang left, I turned out Qijun's sachet in the box under the bed, and when I opened the drawstring of the sachet, the fragrance of flowers inside was still so strong, just like the dried flowers that Qijun bent over to prepare for me at that time, in fact, this sachet was nothing special, but Ah Maochang's expression just now was really a little strange, and it was very different from the usual look he looked at me.

I can't believe it, for the first time, I became suspicious of Ah Mao, and from beginning to end, it was Ah Mao who was stating everything to me.

The sachet is nothing special except that it is the close object of the Seven Monarchs.

I sprinkled the sachet upside down on the ground and rummaged through it, and found a rag, except for the dried flowers, and Ah Mao asked me if the sachet was for the sake of the cloth in the sachet. I put the strip of cloth carefully in the palm of my hand and looked at it carefully, it was in the shape of an irregular strip of cloth, like a torn strip of cloth, the color of the strip of cloth was blue-gray, with the texture of linen, this must be the clothes worn by the servants, blue-gray, not the female servants, like the clothes worn by Ruosheng are orange-pink linen, the male waiters are dressed, that is, Ah Mao Chang and several men who take care of the yard.

Although I tried to put all my trust in Ah Mao Chang, my behavior couldn't help but look into this matter.

Every night, in addition to maintaining the security of the courtyard, Ah Mao Chang is also responsible for transporting the Gu family in and out, so at this time, he must go out to the tavern to pick up the law and come back.

I poked my head out of the window of the room and watched Mao Chang's car gradually drive out, and I quietly walked to the male waiter room in the backyard on the first floor.

I looked left and right, followed a small dirt road, turned another corner, and there we arrived.

The man's room was as cluttered as I had imagined.

The room is not big, and each room can fit the size of a bed, and there are few places to put clothes, so they will pick up a few wooden boxes outside, put the things they need to use in the wooden boxes, and then place the wooden boxes under the bed, so that it is convenient to take things, and it does not take up space, which is really a good method.

However, the waitress room will not be placed like this.

Because Ziyang is popular with a legend. If you accidentally put something unclean under the bed, you will become pregnant in the future, and the baby will either mutate or be deformed.

Everyone is extremely evil-believing, and this incident has happened more than once, and has appeared in the small township of Ziyang many times. There was a very poor family of three people, including a pregnant woman. The area that can be lived in at home is very urgent, so this method is also learned from this pregnant woman, I heard that the elderly woman said to put a ginger under the bed, a jar of freshly brewed liquor, and a vat of pickled cabbage, after October, the baby must be a big fat boy, the pregnant woman is very convinced, it didn't take long to be ready to be placed under the bed, after October, it was born a stillbirth, the stillborn was like a wound cabbage, the umbilical cord tightly wrapped around the neck and suffocated, the pregnant woman died of dystocia. Everyone was frightened by this incident and lost their minds, and all the pregnant women who heard about it hurriedly pulled out the things placed under the bed, and after October, there were still the same death characteristics, the same entanglement around the neck, and the last pregnant woman still died of dystocia.

Later, no one dared to follow suit, and the incident of a dead baby did not happen again.

But a man is not pregnant in October, and he will not take these things to heart at all, and he is very fortunate to be able to save a piece of land, which doesn't matter what is evil.

I lay on the ground, trying to rummage through the contents, a burst of dust came to my nose, the air was mixed with a smell of stinky salted fish, I pinched my nose with two fingers, and fanned away the smell with the other hand, but I didn't expect the smell to get stronger, the source of the smell was actually the pair of cloth shoes I was lying on the ground and pressing, the cloth shoes were worn out, and the insoles inside were also pulled out of a worn-out fold.

I hurried out the door and took a big breath of fresh air from the yard.

I tried tying a petal-soaked handkerchief behind my ears so that I didn't smell it if I covered my nose. I took a deep breath and re-entered the room, just as I heard the voices of several men returning.

I hurried to hide behind a tree.

"It's all you, every time you go out and forget something like this."

"I remember checking it before I went out, and I forgot it when I came out."

"Hurry up, I'll wait for you here."

I heard footsteps, and a man rushed to the door and opened it, not knowing what he had taken inside, and left.

"Okay, let's leave quickly, wait for Ah Mao Chang to talk about us again."

A Mao long? What did Ah Mao do to them, I analyzed.

"They all say that he is not Chinese, of course he will definitely have selfish intentions towards us."

"Let's go."

After I came out, I found that the two male servants were the little housekeepers in the back kitchen, and Wu Xu was in charge of the affairs of the back kitchen. This doesn't make sense, but I haven't been in the Semi-Jinghua Academy for too long, and many things may have changed when I left, so it's understandable that the law has promoted Ah Mao's position and made him the chief butler.

In that case, I should be able to let down my guard against Ah Mao.

When I re-entered the room, I found that the tattered shoes were gone, and they had been replaced by a new pair of shoes.

Could it be that the little butler said just now that the thing he was going to take was a broken shoe? But why take away these broken shoes?

I looked for Ah Maochang's bed with questions, looking for Ah Maochang's name under each bed plate, and after searching back and forth several times, I didn't see Ah Maochang's name, I closed the door and walked back slowly.

At this time, Ah Mao called out to me: "Miss, why are you here?" ”

I was frightened, and before I could recover my senses, he was already standing in front of me.

"I was looking for you, but I didn't see you, so I came to your room to look for you, but there was no name for you in the room?"

"You came to my room looking for me?" He seemed to read my suspicion and hesitated for a moment.

"Yes, it just happened that the door didn't close after someone came out, so I went straight in to find you."

"And what do you see?"

"When I saw that there was no one, I left."

He seemed upset about my arrival, kept asking me questions, and completely forgot that I was the master.

"My room is not here, the lord arranged a room for me, in the attic on the third floor." Mao breathed a long sigh of relief and pointed to the attic on the third floor.

"Why did you change rooms and didn't tell me?"

"It's not a big deal, and there's nothing unusual about the master of such a thing as changing rooms." Mao scratched his hair and laughed.

When Ah Mao Chang said this, I felt as if everything had changed, and he knew that I had never treated him as a servant, except just now.

"Your business is also mine." I patted Mao Chang on the shoulder.

Mao Chang nodded.

I've never been to the attic on the third floor.

I heard that the attic on the third floor is vacant, and it is dedicated to some miscellaneous items, but from the downstairs, it looks like the attic has a large floor-to-ceiling window, and the curtain is never opened, but now that Ah Mao Chang lives here, it is better to rummage through his things.

In the evening, while Ah Mao was on duty, I changed into darker clothes, and when I saw him outside the window, I was sure that it was a good time.

I came to the third floor, there was no light in the stairwell, I went back to the first floor and found a candle to light it, and slowly followed the light of the candle all the way to the third floor, I shone the light of the candle to the doorknob, but I didn't lock the door, and I also brought a needle to try to unlock it, like the Seven Monarchs taught me to do.

I pushed the door and went straight in, while rummaging through the light, Ah Mao Chang is a very self-disciplined person, every corner is neatly tied, at a glance, it looks like a place where soldiers live, even his quilt is folded into a tofu shape, squarely placed at the head of the bed.

I rummaged through the drawers again, and they were all small items, which were the pen and ink that Ah Mao usually practiced studying. When I couldn't find anything, I began to dispel my doubts.

The last place, the most doubtful place, is under the bed.

I carefully poured the candle down, lit a few drops of wax on the ground, and then placed the candle firmly on the ground, and after making sure of the light, I lay on the ground.

I turned my head slightly to the left under the bed, the wooden box in front of me was placed in the most place, I moved the box away, and found that I couldn't use any strength, the box was too heavy, and the strength of one hand was not enough to push it, I squatted up again, grabbed the box with both hands, and tried to pull it out, I gritted my teeth and held my breath, and pulled forward hard, and finally pulled the first box out, and the box was full of stones.

It's so strange, why did Ah Mao put the stones in the box, and most importantly, put the box of stones under the bed, which is not anything of value.

I mustered up the courage to try to reach through the gap and see what I could find, and I was half-crouched on the ground, my face against the edge of the bed, and my hand groped in it, and I felt some fabric or something.

I stretched out my hand, loosened my shoulders, pulled the candle off the floor, and tried to look under the bed.

I looked the candle inside, this is the dress that Lan Xin was sleepwalking in that day, why did Lan Xin's clothes be under Ah Mao's bed?

As I was puzzled, a dark shadow behind me gradually approached me, and his shadow grew larger and larger until it covered my entire body.
