A bowl of porridge should not be handled by too many people.

Dongfang Yi first plugged in from the people in the kitchen, and every day under the pretense of caring about Sister Nalan's body, he personally went to the kitchen to watch them cook.

"Uncle, I'm here to cook for Miss again." The cook said with a grin.

"Yes, Jin'er has just recovered from a serious illness, and her body is already hot. I can't replace her pain, so I have to worry about her more in these little things. Dongfang Yi spoke, but his eyes had already swept the kitchen.

Looking at the busy people in the kitchen, I feel that each of them is very sincere, and their faces are not like people who can harm people. Murderous poison does come out of their hands.

Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, it is just right to use it on their bodies.

"It's still my uncle's distress for Miss, it's really a blessing for Miss. The stove is ready, is there anything else you need help with? The cook cast an envious look.

"Help me prepare the ingredients for the porridge. That's right. Dongfang Yi was moved, "Are these ingredients usually purchased by you personally?" ”

Dongfang Yi will never let go of any detail, including the purchase of ingredients, although it is impossible that someone from outside poisoned Nalan Mansion, such a unit is too wide, but this possibility cannot be ruled out.

"We buy some simple ingredients every day, like the precious ones used by the young lady, they are all bought by the housekeeper, and we can't get our hands on them." The cook put away the kitchen utensils that were not used next to her.

When Dongfang Yi heard this, the spoon stirring in his hand paused, and then continued to talk to the cook as if nothing had happened.

There were many people in the kitchen, and Dongfang Yi seemed to have heard a lot of rhetoric here, which somewhat disturbed his initial judgment.

He was in a hurry, calmed down and thought about it, maybe this is the reason why there are so many disturbances in the house, and there is chaos.

Dongfang Yi summarized all the information collected and found out the suspicious places.

After careful consideration, Peony finally decided to start in advance.

She couldn't wait for Zhao Wenlu to fail and the knife was on her neck before she went to Nalan Jin for revenge, then it would be too late.

Peony must use him for his own use in advance before Zhao Wenlu's rebellion fails, and move to Nalan Jin, so that even if he is buried with Zhao Wenlu, he will die without regrets.

Such a blatant Zhao Wenlu advance, or borrowing his position, will definitely be noticed by Zhao Wenlu, and it will be a little tricky to explain when the time comes.

So, Peony prepared to design for Zhao Wenlu to let him take the initiative to form a bond with Nalan Jin, such a plan to kill two birds with one stone, and he didn't know it.

Peony mentioned Nalan Jin in front of Zhao Wenlu many times, which also attracted his attention, but he ignored it.

"It's been a long time since you've come to see me, don't you miss me, don't you even want this in your stomach?" Peony pretended to be angry and pulled Zhao Wenlu to question.

"Don't make a fuss, you know I've been busy lately, and I can't take a break from business matters, what do you need

Just find the maids around you, they will take care of you. Zhao Wenlu's face was in a hurry.

"As a royal family, you shouldn't be short of silver, how can you still start a business, this is not like what a dignified son should do." Peony looked at Zhao Wenlu, and in the blink of an eye, it was a plan.

"This ...... You'll find out later. ”

Zhao Wenlu pursed his lips in embarrassment, patted Peony's shoulder gently, and then a guard came over and muttered a few words in his ear, and he followed the guard towards the study with a solemn expression.

Peony felt that Zhao Wenlu's every time he met secretly was not simple, so he kept an extra eye.

In order to prevent his painstaking plan from becoming a dream. Peony didn't dare to fake his hands to monitor others, and did everything himself.

After more investigation, Peony found that Zhao Wenlu's business model was very similar to Nalan Jin's back then.

It's also a loss when I was in Fengcheng, and my family also ran a business, so I was exposed to it, and it can be said that I had no teacher.

So Peony intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the business matter, and let Zhao Wenlu rest until his business was the same as Nalan Jin's.

And in front of Zhao Wenlu, he mentioned that Nalan Jin is a rare good hand in running a business.

As a result, Nalan Jin jumped into Zhao Wenlu's sight.

"Why don't you find someone from Nalan Mansion to cooperate, wouldn't this be twice the result with half the effort." Peony's soft-voiced proposal.

"This ......" Zhao Wenlu couldn't help but be similar to the previous thing about wooing Nalan Mansion, "I had this idea before, but then I gave it up, and this matter will be discussed later." ”

The more Zhao Wenlu avoided Nalan Jin, the fatter Peony felt that there was a problem between them.

Dig out your mind and know the truth of the matter.

Dongfang Yi made a secret visit, and finally found out that the person who poisoned Nalan Jin's food during a quarrel between his subordinates turned out to be a maid in the house.

may be because Dongfang Yicha has been relatively tight recently, and the fish is not easy to start, so he deliberately let the other two maids fight because of trivial things.

The so-called, the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind.

The self-proclaimed smart fish took advantage of the quarrel with others to poison Nalan Jin's food, and happened to be seen by Dongfang Yi, who was passing by, the whole process of poisoning.

I wanted to rush up and capture it in one fell swoop, but after thinking about it for a while, I still came to Nalan Jin to get all the stolen goods and let her grind her edges in vain.

Dongfang Yi was pondering, and even Shen Caiyi came over and shouted several times and ignored it.

She was still wondering what could make Dongfang Yi so carried away. When I looked at it, my face immediately changed.

It's really not enough to succeed, more than enough to lose!

After Dongfang Yi left, Shen Caiyi went to Yu'er's room.

"Miss Shen." The fish hurried to salute.

"It's been a hard day, and this is a pastry for you." Shen Caiyi took the prepared pastry to the fish.

This girl has no other hobbies, she just likes to eat. For this

Stealing food in the kitchen is not less punished by the cook.

Looking at the pastry, the fish's eyes glowed green, Shen Caiyi put it on the table, she couldn't wait to pick it up and stuff it into her mouth, whipping it and thanking her.

The two mouthfuls were poisoned, the fish felt wrong, the abdominal pain was unbearable, and the mouth vomited blood and fell. Vicious eyes stared at Shen Caiyi.

Shen Caiyi messed up the food given to Nalan Jin, pretending that the fish had eaten it secretly and was poisoned to death.

"Uncle, Miss, it's not good, the fish is dead." Cui'er ran over in a panic and told Nalan Jin.

"What's going on?" Nalan Jin was puzzled.

"Which maid is it that delivers food to Jin'er?" Dongfang Yi suddenly realized that something had changed.

"Yes, I heard the housekeeper say that he died of food poisoning after eating Miss." Cui'er shuddered.

Dongfang Yi sat on the stool in disappointment, relying on his reaction, Nalan Jin seemed to have guessed something.

"Let the housekeeper take care of the aftermath and appease her family."

Nalan Jin settled Cui'er and handed over all the things of the fish to the card exchange. She understands that Dongfang Yi has broken her heart day and night for her business these days.

Her heart was touched. just didn't say anything, just quietly accompanied Dongfang Yi.

In such a house, it is as simple as crushing an ant to death by a maid, and it is only a matter of two meals, and the people in the house will no longer talk about it.

After this incident, Dongfang Yi found more and more that the house was not peaceful, and all kinds of ghosts and gods were ready to move.

Nalan Jin felt that her body was almost better, and she looked at Dongfang Yi all day long, and her brows were tightly locked. I was very reluctant to go, so I proposed to live in a private house outside the city for a few days to relax.

Dongfang Yi saw that Nalan Jin finally raised his spirit, so he looked forward to it, so he didn't object, and agreed to it.

The two of them explained the affairs of the house to the Pei family and the Li family, and explained the business of the workshop to Nalan Wenyuan.

"Uncle, this is the account book of the workshop, if there is anything unclear, give it to the shopkeeper to discuss, the housekeeper can also help one or two, and if it doesn't work, there is Uncle Xing." Nalan Jin arranged everything as much as possible.

"Don't worry, although I don't have much experience, but I've been taking care of the workshop for so long, I can still put this snack. I'll go to you when something happens. Nalan Wenyuan waved his hand impatiently, and he also wanted Nalan Jin to have a good rest.

Everyone can see that Nalan Jin has been pushing the whole person too tightly recently, and the strings have collapsed very tightly, and she is really worried that one day she will collapse her body.

"Well, the eldest uncle has bothered a lot, and the eldest aunt ......" Nalan Jin shifted the topic to Pei's again.

"Alas, you don't have to tell me, I've been taking care of the house for so many years, and I don't need you to teach me what to do." Pei Shi directly interrupted Nalan Jin's words.

Nalan Jin smiled bitterly and nodded and looked at Dongfang Yi.

Although Nalan Jin simply packed up her things, it seemed that she could live for at least a month, and she didn't have to worry about coming back halfway because of insufficient preparation

。

The two got into the carriage, and Nalan Jin seemed to have something to worry about, and kept looking back at the people who saw them off at the gate of Nalan Mansion.

"Now that you have decided to go out for a walk, don't think about anything else, there must be a way before the car reaches the mountain." Dongfang Yi put his arm around Nalan Jin's shoulders and comforted.

"Hmm." Nalan Jin let out a long sigh, "It's been a long time since I've gone out alone with you." ”

Nalan Jin seemed to be relaxed all over, and the whole person leaned on Dongfang Yi's arms, handing over all the safety to Dongfang Yi.

Shen Caiyi originally packed up her things and wanted to go out with her, but when she arrived at the door, she saw that the carriage had already gone away.

She stomped her feet angrily and didn't move. Li glared at Shen Caiyi viciously, and Pei even glanced at her as a joke.

In the past few days, the list of the workshop has been shown to the housekeeper, and looking at the astonishing income of that line, the housekeeper has a crooked mind.

At this time, the person in charge of the mansion is not there, Nalan Wenyuan is just a decoration, and if he doesn't put all the property of Nalan Mansion in his name at this time, how long will he stay?

With this in mind, the butler began to plan secretly.

He quietly changed the figures on some of the accounts, put all the income into his own pocket, and replaced some of the seals on the accounts with his own.
