When Yan Ran arrived at the warehouse, she first asked for the candied fruit ordered by Mother Park, and then followed the cook who managed the warehouse to gossip, "Hey, is there a lot of time in the second lady's yard to get candied fruit?" ”

"Many, in addition to the fifth lady who is still a child, the second lady asks for the most candied fruits. But it's strange to say, except for candied fruit, she is not interested in other sweet mouths. The cook carefully held the fruit bowl while talking to Yan Ran.

"Oh, isn't honey interested either?" Yan Ran responded, looked at the several jars placed in the corner of the warehouse, smelled the sweetness in the air, and pretended to sigh and said, "You guys smell a lot of honey here."

"There are a lot of people in the house, and they want miscellaneous things, so small things and miscellaneous items like honey candied fruit are purchased by special people, what acacia nectar, osmanthus nectar, broken tree honey, jujube tree honey, stone honey are all available, and the nectar for the little ladies to nourish and beautify is also full." The cook lady is quite honored, "The second lady has always asked for not much, does Yan Gongzi want to bring some back this time?" ”

"Oh, no, I'm just asking." Yan Ran smiled and glanced at it as if unintentionally, "Who usually likes to eat honey in the house?" ”

"There are some examples in each courtyard, the second and fourth ladies are the norm, and the fifth lady lives with the eldest lady, so they are also sent to the eldest lady's courtyard, and they don't use much. However, Aunt Qian and Miss San both like honey. However, Aunt Qian likes osmanthus nectar, and the third lady likes flower nectar and rose honey. Well, there was originally no rose nectar in the house, only rose dew, and later because the third lady asked for it, Aunt Qian specially asked the beekeeper to get better. ”

"In this way, Aunt Qian is really motherly." Yan Ran smiled.

"Alas, it's not, although it doesn't seem close on the surface, but when Aunt Qian was in charge, the third lady loved to eat and use, and the treasury was fully prepared, and everything was available. It's just that such a trivial thing is really inconspicuous, and I know a thing or two when I see the warehouse all day long. The cook nagged twice, and then blamed herself, "Oh, the old woman talks a lot, which makes the son upset." ”

"Not really, I like to listen to your old man." Yan Ran smiled, "When was the last time Aunt Qian came to get honey?" ”

"Just a few days ago, it seems to be the day of her accident," the cook replied while thinking, and then patted her head, "Yes, that day, I remember that the kitchen first made the dim sum that the second lady wanted, and the second lady ordered to marinate the sugar and then steam, instead of steaming it and then staining it in the sugar water, so we pickled the food with sugar first, and when we were busy, Aunt Qian came to get the honey." So remember it very clearly. ”

"I'm busy, how can I remember it clearly?" Yan Ran asked with interest.

"Because she came in person that time, it was usually Fleur from her yard, she came in person that day, and said that she was passing by, and came to see by the way, and after taking the honey, she chatted with us a few more words, and then left."

"Does she know that what you're doing is for Second Miss?" Yan Ran asked keenly.

"Yes." At that time, she was standing by the stove and said that the second lady was sweet, so let's put more sugar.

Yan Ran nodded, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows stretched slightly, as if he had solved some big problem, but soon wrinkled again.

"No, if that's the case, why would she eat it?"

"What?" The cook listened to Yan Ran's sigh and asked curiously.

"Oh, nothing." Yan Ran came back to her senses, fooled the cook's question and answer with a smile, talked a few more gossips with the cook, talked about the candied fruits from the south to the north, and then took what Zhao Liusi asked for and left.

"Ah, help, help!"

Zhao Liusi was fluttering in the water, struggling desperately, and from time to time there were big waves on the boundless water, which seemed to slap her heavily into the bottom of the sea. Just when he was desperate, a driftwood suddenly floated on the water, and he climbed up regardless of the thirty-seven-twenty-one, and then tightly picked at the branches on the tree, panting desperately.

"It's all right, it's all right," a warm, thin hand patted her on the back and pulled her out of the suffocating coldness. Zhao Liusi opened her eyes, but found that the monstrous waves and the water surface that could not see the sky had disappeared, and in front of her was Mother Park, who cared about him, and the driftwood he held was Mother Park's arm.

"Why am I here?" Zhao Liusi let go of her hand and looked at Mother Park in a daze, looking like she didn't know where her figure was. The next moment she came to her senses and shouted loudly, "Zhao Qiaoyun! ”

"I know that she pushed Miss into the water, if it weren't for Yan Gongzi, I'm afraid that Miss would have become a water ghost at this time," Mother Park helped her to follow her breath and said it first.

"Yan Ran?" Zhao Liusi muttered a few words, and then quickly recovered, but as soon as he lifted the quilt, he stepped on his shoes and was about to run out, "No, I have to go see her!" ”

"Who are you going to see, who are you going to see? Look at Yan Gongzi? He's gone to fetch you preserves and will be back soon. Mother Park was a little confused by her reaction, and immediately chased after her ass and shouted, "You just wait here, you'll see you later." ”

"No, I'm not going to see him, Zhao Qiaoyun, where is Zhao Qiaoyun? I want to see her! She's the murderer! Zhao Liusi was grabbed by Mother Park and said incoherently.

"Oh, don't worry, Yan Gongzi is staring at her, I have sent someone to Madame to inform the that she is going to harm you, it is estimated that she has been controlled by Madame's people now." Mother Park helped her and comforted, "You rest first, and when the master comes back, let's go and complain." ”

"I'm not going to sue, I am, I am," Zhao Liusi's mind was messy, she grabbed Mother Park's hand, looked at the old lady's loving eyes, and didn't know where to start for a while, her mouth was only open, and tears slipped down uncontrollably.

She wants to tell Mother Park, the second lady you love is no longer there, she is dead, she was quietly poisoned in bed, no one in this world knows about her death, and no one has shed a tear for her.

She's a bear child, but she shouldn't have died quietly.

But she couldn't say.

If the second miss died, what was the self standing in front of her?

Zhao Liusi was speechless with Mother Park, and when she was crying inexplicably, a bunch of people suddenly poured in outside the door, led by Mother Zhou.

It is very similar to the scene when Zhao Liusi woke up, she brought many people, but the difference is that she looked at Zhao Liusi's gaze at this time, a little frightened, as if she was looking at some ghost.

"Mother Zhou," the nervous Mother Park greeted her with some surprise when she saw a group of people rushing in at the door, and opened her mouth to ask with a smile, "But Madame is back?" ”

"Well, Mrs. and Grandpa are back, please come over for a visit," Mother Zhou glanced at Zhao Liusi, but subconsciously avoided her gaze, and explained vaguely, "It was the third lady who pushed her into the water." ”

"Then the master is going to administer justice to the second young lady?" Park's mother showed a look of surprise.

"Hmm." Mother Zhou answered vaguely, but she didn't dare to look at her master and servant.

Something is wrong, Zhao Liusi thought uncomfortably, if she administers justice, then she should be an upright person, why do you bring so many strong men? But it's not right to arrest her, last time she killed someone, she also knew that she brought some healthy servants, why did she bring so many family members this time?

But the situation in front of her didn't allow her to think too much, Zhao Liusi nodded, and raised her hand to Zhou's mother, "It's just right, I'm going to see her too, please lead the way." ”

**

The place I went to this time was very strange, not in the courtyard of the eldest lady, nor in the courtyard of the old man, but in the ancestral hall where Zhao Liusi was closed last time. On the books along the road, something yellow floated, and the wind blew, swaying slightly with the leaves, and it seemed to be ...... Spell?

What's going on? Zhao Liusi came to the ancestral hall in confusion, and as soon as he entered the ancestral hall, he saw that the main hall of the ancestral hall was empty, except for the eldest lady and Zhao Qi who were sitting on the right seat, it was Zhao Qiaoyun who was kneeling on the ground.

Zhao Qiaoyun was half-lying on the ground at this time, judging from her appearance, she was not tortured, and there was no blood at all, but her expression seemed to be not very good, and she was lying there weakly, like a living dead.

"Sisi, you're here." Zhao Qi saw Zhao Liusi coming, and smiled at her, but the smile was very strange and very deliberate, just like two people holding small sticks and pushing his cheeks to both sides.

"Father, mother." Zhao Liusi nodded and saluted them. The eldest lady coughed with an ugly face, but still put on a smile that was no less stiff than Zhao Qi.

The eldest lady never smiled when she saw her, how could she be so polite today.

"Sisi, how are you doing with the case recently?" The eldest lady seemed to open her mouth and asked, "Have you found the person who killed Aunt Qian?" ”

"I," Zhao Liusi didn't have time to answer, when he saw Zhao Qi open his mouth to reprimand the eldest lady, "What do you say about murderers and murderers, what do you do when you talk about such bad things in broad daylight." After speaking, he turned to Zhao Liusi and showed a standard fatherly smile, "Sisi, your mother's death day is coming, I want to do a Dharma service for your mother, what time do you think it's good?" ”

Zhao Liusi heard this, and panicked. Liu's death day? She didn't have that information in her head.

"This kind of big thing is naturally decided by my father." Zhao Liusi lowered his head to hide his panic, and replied pretending to be respectful.

"Well, how about the seventh day of August?" Zhao Qi coughed and asked, "It's an auspicious day of the zodiac, it is advisable to start moving the grave, the craftsmen hurry up, just in time to complete the construction period before the death day, and do not delay the worship." ”

"Daddy's choice is naturally a good day." Zhao Liusi nodded and praised, but found that Zhao Qi's face suddenly turned sideways, and the whole person fell from the chair in fright.
