"Nope! Not me! The maid shook her head in panic, but the two little maids who clamped her still brought her to her knees in front of Xiao Zhiyuan.

"Master Hou, this girl has the smell of jasmine on her hands." Steward Wu said.

Xiao Zhiyuan frowned, and glanced coldly at the person on the ground: "It's you?" ”

"Nope! It's not me, it's not me who did it! I don't know anything! The maid hurriedly denied it.

"And what do you explain the smell of jasmine on your hands?" Steward Wu said.

"Slave maid...... The slave maid ......" Her eyes wandered, and she was speechless.

"Humph!" Xiao Zhiyuan snorted coldly, then turned his head and asked Xiao Yiran, "Do you know this girl?" ”

Xiao Yiran looked at Xianglan, and Xianglan hurriedly replied: "Her name is Guo'er, and she is just a second-class maid in our courtyard. ”

"How can a second-class maid get in and out of Miss's boudoir?" Zou said.

Xianglan stared at Guo'er for a while, and suddenly remembered: "The slave remembers, last time the slave was coming back from the kitchen, and met Mama Zhao on the way, she suddenly pulled me to talk, I was afraid that the food would be cold, so I asked the passing Guo'er to deliver the food to the young lady's room first, could it be that ...... at that time"

Xianglan covered her mouth, and her eyes immediately looked at Mama Zhao.

Since the moment Guo'er was pulled out, Mama Zhao was very flustered, and when she saw Xianglan say this, she immediately knelt down and said: "The old slave is wronged, I didn't know that such a thing would happen!" ”

"Really?" Xiao Yiran stared at Mama Zhao for a while, and then she carefully looked at Fanguo'er's appearance and said, "Mama Zhao, what is the relationship between you and Guo'er?" ”

"Yes...... It's ......" Mama Zhao was speechless.

Xiao Yiran said in a cold voice: "Blood relationship." ”

She said why she thought Guo'er was familiar just now, but now when she saw Mama Zhao, she suddenly understood that Mama Zhao and Guo'er looked a little similar, and if they had nothing to do with each other, ghosts didn't believe it!

Xiao Zhiyuan and the others also saw this, and immediately said angrily: "Mama Zhao, what is the relationship between you and this fruit?" ”

"Yes, yes...... "Mama Zhao closed her eyes, "she is my daughter." ”

It turned out to be a mother-daughter relationship! Xiao Yiran couldn't help sneering in his heart, with Mama Zhao's status in Bai Huaping, where is her daughter not good, why did she want to be sent to her courtyard? This look, I want to put an eyeliner in her!

"Did you do what you did today?" Xiao Zhiyuan continued.

Mama Zhao was silent.

At this time, Xiao Yijing finally couldn't stand it anymore, she stood up and said, "Father, there must be a misunderstanding in this matter." Mama Zhao is an old man next to her mother, and she has always been loyal to her mother, how could she harm her. Someone must have deliberately misled us! In the end, she glared at Xiao Yiye.

Xiao Yiran said: "I don't know my heart if I know people, I don't know my heart, second sister shouldn't excuse Mama Zhao directly because she has served by her mother's side for many years!" ”

Xiao Yixian also said: "Father, I think what the second sister said is right, Mama Zhao really has no reason to harm her mother!" ”

Xiao Zhiyuan couldn't make up his mind for a while.

Seeing him hesitate, Zou on the side suddenly smiled: "Big brother, we can't get any conclusion if we continue to argue like this." But everything must be evidenced, since this fruit has the scent of jasmine on its hands, it is better to check the fruit carefully, and then everything will be known. ”

"How do I check it?" Xiao Zhiyuan asked.

Zou said: "It's not simple? The woman's hands have these aromas mostly the aroma of fat powder, we just need to check how many maids in the house use this jasmine-scented fat powder. ”

Xiao Zhiyuan pondered for a while, and then glanced at Steward Wu beside him, and Steward Wu hurriedly retreated.

Zou glanced at Mama Zhao on the ground and said, "Then again, Mama Zhao, you serve your sister-in-law yourself, but why did you send your daughter to this Tingyu Pavilion?" ”

Mama Zhao smiled and said, "This is all arranged by Mrs. Although the slave and maid have served by the lady's side for many years, they will not beg the lady for this, and everything has to be done according to the rules. ”

"Oh~" Zou said meaningfully.

I really didn't expect that things would take a big turn in the end, and I would find the head of the person who painted the white screen, and this person was still her confidant. If this matter is really done by Mama Zhao in the end, then she must take the opportunity to cut off her right-hand man this time!

Zou's series of actions, even Xiao Yiran almost applauded her. Sure enough, as long as her second aunt was involved in the white painting screen, she would bite it until she gnawed off a piece of meat on the other party's body.

After a while, Steward Wu finally came back, still carrying a vial in his hand, and he presented the vial in front of Xiao Zhiyuan: "Master Hou, this was found from Guo'er's room." ”

Xiao Zhiyuan only glanced at it and did not speak. But Zou Shi took it very actively, she opened the vial and smelled it, and said, "That's right, it's jasmine fragrance, the same as this fruit and the puppet." Have you ever found anything with this scent in other people's houses? ”

"Not found." Steward Wu said.

Zou smiled, turned his head sideways and said to Xiao Zhiyuan: "Big brother, now the matter is very clear, it is this fruit that put the puppet in the house of the three girls." and this Mama Zhao, according to Xianglan's recollections, must also be aware of it, and she also helped to cover up. ”

Xiao Zhiyuan said gloomily: "Mama Zhao, what else do you have to say?" ”

"Slave, slave maid......" Mama Zhao opened her mouth.

The Xiao Yixian sisters on the side were already anxious, whether this matter was done by Mama Zhao or not, in fact, they knew best in their hearts. This plan was foolproof, but I didn't expect this kind of mistake to occur.

Thinking of this, both of them couldn't help but look at Xiao Yiran, their eyes were cold.

Xiao Yiran said: "Mama Zhao, you have served your mother for many years, and you are already an old man in this mansion, why do you want to use this witchcraft on your mother and grandmother?" ”

Mama Zhao was silent.

Zou on the side said: "How can a subordinate have such the courage to harm the old lady, maybe someone is behind it!" ”

"What do you mean by that, brother and sister?" Xiao Zhiyuan glanced at her.

Zou laughed and said, "It's not that I suspect the eldest brother, but what this evil servant did is really unclear." Say! Are you under command? She asked sharply at Mama Zhao.

But Mama Zhao still didn't say a word, this dead duck's hard-mouthed posture made Zou angry, she sneered: "Don't think that you can rely on the old and sell the old if you are the old man in this mansion, although our Zhongyong Marquis Mansion has always been kind to the old servant, but it will never tolerate people who harm the master!" ”

As she spoke, she said to Xiao Zhiyuan beside her: "Big brother, since this evil servant refuses to speak, then we should take some special measures." ”

"You want to torture?" Xiao Zhiyuan frowned.

"Yes, this is also a last resort! If this wicked servant is willing to recruit all the good, then forget it. Zou looked down and said, "We'll give you another chance, Mama Zhao, do you mean it or not?" ”
