Chapter 411: Why Does the Coffee Smell of Mud?
Old Man Bai has been drinking coffee for decades, and his tongue is still smarter than that professional food critic, he only took a sip, and then squirted it directly, Xin Ying stood opposite him, and was almost not sprayed by him.
"What's wrong?" Xin Ying reflexively flashed to the side, and his heart also lifted, and he even stammered when he spoke.
There's nothing wrong with the way she makes coffee, that's what she did on the day of the interview, and I've never seen him so exaggerated?
"What kind of coffee are you? Could it be that it was picked up from the mud? Old Man Bai glared at her, angrily buckled the cup on the table, pointed to the liquid inside, and said, "You pay it yourself!" ”
Xin Ying looked confused, what's wrong with this coffee?
However, seeing that the old man Bai was bubbling with cold air all over her body, she didn't dare to hesitate anymore, she directly picked up the cup, took a small sip, and carefully tasted it on the tip of her tongue before swallowing it.
"Did you drink it out?" Old Man Bai looked at her with a not very good face and asked.
Xin Ying's body shook, she actually didn't taste it, but the pressure of Old Man Bai's gaze was too scary, if she shook her head directly and said no, she was afraid that he would grab the things on the table and smash them directly in the next second, and she would be swept out of the house.
She had managed to get in, and of course she couldn't just be swept out, so she had to take another sip, this time, slowly, and after swallowing, she carefully tasted the taste that had been left between her teeth.
This time, she seemed to have something to offer, but she wasn't quite sure, so she took another sip.
Old Man Bai's face has turned from black to blue, looking at her stupid appearance, he is really angry, just like that, how did she stay in the Xin family for three years, is it possible, after leaving the wealthy family, has his son's taste dropped so much?
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and just as his anger was about to reach its peak, Xin Ying looked at him cautiously and asked, "Why does this coffee smell of mud?" ”
Old Man Bai raised his voice and reprimanded: "Then I want to ask you, how can there be a smell of mud!" ”
He slapped the table loudly, Xin Ying was scared and her little heart was beating, the first time she saw Old Man Bai go crazy, in her impression, this is an old naughty boy who loves to pretend, from the contact in the past few days, she can see that Old Man Bai really gives the Xin family face, just because she mentioned the Xin family, he has always been kind to her, even if she is sometimes clumsy, he has never been angry.
This time, it was probably because his old man's noble mouth actually tasted muddy, so he roared.
Thinking like this, Xin Ying was also very strange in her heart, the coffee beans were all in jars, she just poured them out of them according to the amount, she had never been to the garden, how could she be stained with mud.
"I'll go and see the beans." Xin Ying withstood the coercion of the old man Bai, with cold sweat on his head, and said stiffly.
Old Man Bai didn't speak, she knew that he acquiesced, so she slipped out of the study, slipped into the kitchen, opened the closet, took out the can of coffee beans she used before, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it carefully.
However, the smell of the coffee was so strong that even if there was a little dirt on it, she would not smell it, so she poured out a little and rubbed it repeatedly on her hand.
There was a layer of mud on my hands!
Xin Ying frowned, she knew very well that these coffee beans were all good beans, and they were all very clean before they were packaged and sold, and there would definitely be no reality of losing powder, besides, the beans of coffee beans were relatively hard, and it was impossible for ordinary collisions or transportation to break them into powder.
The only possibility is that someone has done something to the coffee beans in the jar.
So, she checked all the coffee beans in the closet and found that only this one jar had mud and nothing else.
In other words, some people know that Old Man Bai likes to drink this one the most on weekdays, so he specially made his hands and feet in this can of beans.
Who is so boring?
Xin Ying immediately narrowed her eyes, if she followed the normal development route, the coffee that Old Man Bai drank every day was made by her, so she would definitely be blamed if something went wrong.
The other party wants to fix her!
Xin Ying lowered her head and smiled, holding the can of coffee to find the white butler.
"Butler Bai, someone has done something in this can of coffee beans that the old man likes to drink, I want to ask, is there surveillance in the main building?" Generally, large families should install monitoring, after all, there are so many servants here, if there is no monitoring, it is not easy to manage.
Xin Ying thought so, and heard Butler Bai say unexpectedly: "No." ”
Xin Ying's shoulders collapsed, and he asked in disbelief, "How could it not be?" If someone has done something in the main building, can't they be found? ”
In such a big building, there is no surveillance, is this teasing her?
"It's really not, because there are only two people living in this building, me and the old man, and now there is an extra you, and, usually, except for meal time, no one else is allowed to come in, and there are bodyguards outside to monitor 24 hours a day, so I don't think there is any need to install monitoring." Butler Bai looked at her helplessly and said, "Besides, the old man doesn't like to put this kind of thing in the place where he lives. ”
Xin Yingmo.
Before she came, she knew that this old man had a strange personality and a strange temperament, but she didn't expect it to be so weird.
Obviously, he has raised so many servants, and he wants to drive them all out of his sight, and he doesn't need to be served closely, and he doesn't know whether to say that he has a lot of money and is panicking, and he invites so many people just to be a decoration, or that he is an old man who is so individual, and he is even stranger than Ye Xun.
Phew, how did she think of him again!
"Well, there should always be surveillance around the main building, right? Otherwise, if anyone sneaks in and does something, don't you know? Xin Ying asked.
This time, the white housekeeper didn't hit her, nodded and said: "Yes, yes, but there are a lot of people coming in and out this day, after all, there will be servants coming in and out for three meals a day, plus daily cleaning, so even if you know who has been to the main building, you can't know who did it, right?" ”
This range is a bit large, however, Xin Ying has already guessed some in his heart, but there is no empirical evidence, after all, he can't do anything to others.
She made the coffee, and if she couldn't find the suspect, she would have to carry the pot.
"Then you can come with me to the monitoring room." Butler Bai knew that she had an idea in her heart when he saw her appearance, and he didn't say anything, just took her to the monitoring room on the side of the annex building.
However, just like the white butler said, judging from the number of people who walked into the main building, there was a lot, and there was no monitoring inside the main building, so it was impossible to see who brought the mud in and made it bad.
In other words, this pot can only be carried by her!
Xin Yingqi froze.
"Don't worry, the old man won't do anything to you, I will help you find out about this matter, and I won't let you carry the black pot." Butler Bai actually has a number in his heart, and the rule of five to keep three that he mentioned at the beginning, he thought that there would be someone in it who would be a demon.
Because, no one will want to leave, there will always be so many people with crooked minds who will be demons.
"Usually the servants are mostly in the kitchen, and there are no cameras elsewhere, but you can also install one in the kitchen, aren't you afraid that someone will poison the old man?" Xin Ying was puzzled.
All big families will prevent themselves from being plotted, and they can't wait to install two cameras in their bedrooms, but this old man Bai is strange, and he doesn't pretend to be one.
It's just that he has invited so many servants here, and the fish and dragons are mixed, who knows who is mixed in it.
How the hell did he get to this point!
"Don't you know? There is an iron rule in the Bai family, assassinating the head of the family, there is no way to live, if someone dares to poison the food, none of the people in the kitchen can escape, everyone has to die. When the white housekeeper said this, he smiled very gently, but Xin Ying felt that there was a yin wind blowing behind him, pulling out the cold.
She believes that with the means of Old Man Bai, this is definitely not an exaggeration, and the people who come to work here do not want to die.
"Besides, the people who do things here are all old people, and they know this rule very well, and they don't dare to do it with a hundred dares." For this, the white butler is extremely confident.
This is why the old man has to drive Bai Feng's family outside to live, they live here, and many things are out of their control.
Although Old Man Bai can't help them at the moment, they can't do it if they want to make a move against Old Man Bai.
For now, they can only maintain a semblance of peace until the person who broke the balance appears.
"Okay, then I'll ask the old man if he wants to change his taste." Xin Ying hugged the can of coffee beans, silently returned to the main building, threw the can of dirty beans into the trash, sighed, and muttered, "What a waste, this can will cost at least tens of thousands." ”
However, if the dirty things are dirty, Old Man Bai will definitely not drink them again, and he can't wash them and dry them, so even if the flesh hurts, she can only throw them away.
It's just that she threw away the coffee beans with her front foot, and a voice sounded from behind her with her back foot: "Yo, throw away a can of coffee beans worth tens of thousands at will, have you asked the white housekeeper?" Be careful to deduct your salary, I heard that you already owe that ugly man a debt before you came, and if you continue to deduct it, you will have to pay it off with a promise, right? ”
Xin Ying's face darkened, and when she turned her head, she saw Guan Lu carrying a flower hoe, like Lin Daiyu, stomping in with small steps, and her eyes were full of schadenfreude when she looked at her.
Xin Ying clasped her hands around her chest, looked at her condescendingly, and asked straight to the point, "You did it, right?" ”
Guan Lu looked at her innocently and asked, "What did I do?" ”
Xin Ying didn't like this kind of person who secretly used tricks the most, and even snatched her flower hoe.
