Chapter 41: Camphor (1)
Shochikusai.
Under the supervision of the whole manager, Bai Tang obediently stayed at home to solve the order sprinkled with gold paper at hand. But he was worried about Qin Wu's matter in his heart, and he didn't know how to solve it? Did Qin Jian catch the real murderer?
Just when he was worried, Su Shi pushed the door in and said suspiciously: "Bai Tang, the son of the Qin family has sent you a gift!" β
Bai Tang was overjoyed, put aside his pen and smiled: "Invite him in." β
Su Shi wanted to speak and stopped, full of worries: the previous Lanxue tea incident was so big, although it was solved, she was always unsteady in her heart. Qin Jian, this young man, has a very good family background and a good person. But Bai Tang really shouldn't have anything to do with these sons of the family anymore. Otherwise, when he recovers his daughter's body in the future, how can he marry?
Qin Jian swept away the previous sadness and decadence, refreshed and smiled, and when he saw Bai Tang, he gave him a deep look: "Bai Tang, thanks to you this time!" β
Su Shi's heart jumped when he heard this: Bai Tang? He screamed so affectionately! I couldn't help but look up at them again. Seeing that Bai Tang was as if nothing happened, he had to cover the door for them.
Bai Tang returned the salute with a smile: "It's Sister Ling's deep blessing." Then he smiled slightly and asked in a low voice, "Can you find out the mastermind?" β
Qin Jianjun's face was cold, and he said coldly: "Who else can there be?" β
On the day they settled in the Hot Spring Villa, Qin Jian remained quiet, privately borrowed Wei Guogong's manpower, and arranged a good scene of catching turtles in Weng.
In the evening, after Qin Wu's maid waited for her to take a bath, she had to destroy and change her dirty clothes. Just as Bird Ling was lighting the fire, she was suddenly surrounded by a group of mother-in-law and maids who rushed into the house and snatched the dirty clothes from her hands!
Bird Ling was shocked and angry, and before she could shout, she was covered by a mother-in-law and pushed to the ground directly with her hands and feet.
The woman lifted the dirty clothes and put them under her nose and sniffed hard, her face changed slightly. Turning around and nodding to the man outside the door.
Bird Ling's beautiful face was as pale as snow, her eyes widened, and she shook her head vigorously and shed tears at the young master who was walking towards her. A pair of teary eyes full of affection.
Qin Jian only felt disgusted, but said calmly with anger: "My sister treats you well. Thou hast murdered her like this! β
Finching shook her head uncontrollably, whimpering incessantly.
Qin Jian didn't bother to listen to her explanation: "No matter what your reason is, you are the one who betrayed and murdered the master. He took the garment, and the tentacles were as soft as nothing, and the texture was fine, and it was indeed the best material.
The mother-in-law on the side sighed: "This is Su Juan, only blue and white." It is most comfortable to wear as underwear. β
Qin Jian lowered his head and sniffed the clothes lightly, first with a faint but unignorable floral fragrance, and then with the familiar smell of camphor wood.
"You cover the smell of camphor wood with the fragrance of flowers, so calculated." Qin Jian lifted her chin on her tiptoes, "I will pay back a hundredfold for the evil you did to Sister A today!" β
Finch Ling hissed in her throat in terror: "Woo, no-"
Kicking her away, Qin Jian said to the mother-in-law: "Take her to my sister's house!" β
In Qin's house, Poria hadn't seen Finching come back for a long time, and when she felt strange, she was surprised to see that the young master had tied Fina Ling's flowers over. couldn't help but be angry: "Young master! What's going on? Why do this to the finches? β
Qin Jian looked at her for a while, and saw that Poria was hairy, but she was still stubbornly staring at him.
"I ask you. Sister's clothes, did you take turns washing and destroying them, or was Queling alone in charge? β
Poria was stunned and said: "I am in charge of Miss's diet and medicine, and Bird Ling is in charge of Miss's clothes and accessories." β
Qin Jian raised her eyebrows, and the cold in her eyes suddenly retracted: "In other words, since Sister Ah has been sick these days, all the clothes have been handled by Que Ling?" β
Poria nodded.
"Okay." Qin Jian smiled gently at her, "It's none of your business." β
"Young Master, what the hell is Que Lingβ"
The movement outside the house had already alarmed the Ruan family inside. When she heard the sound, she came out and saw the finch curled up on the ground, and her heart was shocked, and her beautiful face was bloody for a while: "What's the matter?!" β
Qin Jian arched her hand to her and said sadly: "Mother, I finally know where Sister A's illness started!" β
Ruan Shi was stunned and asked inexplicably: "How do you say this?" β
Qin Jian said to Poria Cocos: "Go, take out all the dirty clothes of the young lady!" β
Poria was puzzled, but the governor also knew that the matter was very important, and hurriedly went into the house and came out with a stack of clothes.
"Sister A's clothes smell of spices." He looked at Poria, "Is it from Finch?" β
Poria glanced at Finch, nodded and said, "Miss likes the faint fragrance of flowers." And she stained the incense on her garment. Some of the floral scents can also help you sleep, and the lady likes it very much. β
Qin Jian sneered, his eyes were like poisonous arrows: "It's really calculating." β
At this time, the mother-in-law in the Zhuangzi had already sent a basin of water and put it at Qin Jian's feet.
Everyone looked confused, not knowing what the young master meant by this move.
Qin Jian took a piece of profane clothes, and while staring at Ruan's expression, he threw it into the water, Ruan's expression was extremely well controlled, even if there was some panic, it was hidden in the depths of her surprised eyes and difficult to peek.
"Young Masterβ" Poria exclaimed, pointing to the little bit of dark yellow floating on the water, "What is this?" β
At the same time, a pungent smell gradually followed.
"It'sβ" Nguyen was shocked. "Ah Jian, what the hell is going on?"
Qin Jian looked at her like a cone for a moment, suddenly smiled, and said lightly: "As Madame can see, this dress is made of camphor sawdust into powder, mixed with rice milk, and then smeared on the clothes. Camphor powder can cause skin damage when accidentally touched on the skin. The symptoms are very similar to leprosy! It's only because there is the fragrance of flowers to cover it, and it is Poria cocos that is handled from beginning to end, so it does not show any flaws. β
Nguyen's heart was shocked: Madame? He even called her Madame?! There was a stinging pain in her heart, and the pain made her nose sore, and tears actually floated in her eyes! Although she had already prepared for the mother and son to turn against each other, when this day suddenly came, she found that she couldn't bear this cold and cruel reality!
Poria cried with joy: "Is Miss suffering from leprosy?" Is it really not leprosy? β
She stopped crying suddenly, and her black and white apricot eyes were full of anger and resentment: "Queling, you are so ruthless! Miss treats you and me as sisters, and has never treated you badly. You're going to do this?! Why? β
Que Ling knew that the general trend had gone, and looked at Qin Jian blankly, and then looked at Ruan Shi, her covered mouth couldn't say a word, and she could only cry powerlessly.
Poria cocos grew up with her since she was a child, and she knew her mind somewhat, and she guessed a little bit of the inside story when she looked at her expression, and couldn't help but scold angrily: "It's stupid!" β
There was silence all around.
Ruan Shi coughed lightly and said tactfully: "Ah Jian, I don't think this maid will murder her for no reason." Listen to her explanation. β
Qin Jian shook his head very simply and refused: "No need." β
"Why?" The Qin Chen brothers and sisters who came to hear the news were surprised and spoke in unison.
Qin Jian glanced at them, and her voice was cold: "Because she is a slave, I am the master." No matter what kind of hardship she had, it was not the reason why she murdered her master. So, I didn't have to listen to her for any explanation! β
Ruan's nails hidden in his sleeves stabbed his palms with sharp pain: Qin Jian, you are really cautious! directly made the retreat she had already prepared nowhere to go.
