Seeing Mrs. Qiao away, Eleven Niang returned to the inner room and saw Xu Lingyi in a daze on the pillow of the big kang near the window.

She smiled and stepped forward to make Xu Lingyi a cup of tea.

Xu Lingyi came back to her senses when she heard the movement and asked her: "Look, how about putting the child in his hometown and helping Xiangyi take it?" ”

Eleven Niang's mind came to mind the woman with a strong figure but a somewhat generous face.

"She served in front of her mother." She smiled, "Master Hou is also familiar with her, and he must know her temperament." Since I think it's good, I can't go wrong with it. ”

Xu Lingyi got up: "Let's go, let's go to my mother's place - this matter always has to be told to her old man." ”

Eleven Niang felt that it was better for Xu Lingyi to discuss this matter with Mrs. Tai by herself. If you are there, if the old man can't hang it on his face, won't he go to add to the blockage in vain.

"Isn't Master Hou going to see the child?" She said, "I said I hadn't eaten all the time." I've been worried. ”

Xu Lingyi hesitated for a while: "Forget it!" Anyway, I'm going to send it away in a few days. ”

looks like I'm afraid of more contact.

In the flint light, Eleven Niang suddenly realized.

People and people build their feelings through contact.

Although he was worried about the child's situation, he only called Amber to ask without looking at it. To put it bluntly, I am also afraid that I will have more contact with my children and develop feelings......

She couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Xu Lingyi thought that Eleven Niang was disappointed in herself, and hesitated for a while, and said, "Or, you can go over and see for yourself, right?" I'll go to my mother's. Tell my mother about it. ”

Eleven Niang didn't want to go, so she naturally responded.

Sending Xu Lingyi away, she was hesitating whether to go see the child there, and Amber ran in.

Her face turned a little pale, and she gave a hasty salute to Eleven Niang, and glanced at Eleven Niang: "Madam, Manager Bai asked me to come to you." ”

Mr. Bai asked people to come and find ...... Eleven Niang's first thought was what happened to the child!

She immediately took Amber to the inner room.

Amber couldn't wait to say, "Young Master Fengqing is gone?" ”

Eleven Niang's brain "buzzed", and her heart was pounding: "Speak clearly." What is the child gone! "His face was as pale as paper.

Amber said in a low voice: "I brought something over, and Young Master Fengqing hid in the corner of the bed, so we couldn't coax us to come over to eat." You can take a bath and wash it by force, but this food is ...... Later, it was Sister Holly who said that if you put things on the kang table, our people will go out, and he will naturally eat them. Later, we followed Sister Holly's instructions and put things on the kang table, and after half an hour of entering, Young Master Feng Liao and the food were gone. ”

Eleven Niang breathed a sigh of relief, "It may be that the child is hiding in some kind of eating." ”

Amber shook her head, her expression a little panicked: "Manager Bai, Linbo, and Zhaoying all helped to find it, but they didn't find it." ”

Eleven Niang suddenly thought that the person who bought the child had never been found......

She felt that something was going wrong.

"You go to Mrs. Tai's side and inform Master Hou without alarming others." Eleven Niang's face was solemn, and there was a solemn aura between her eyebrows, which made Amber feel a pang in her heart, "I'll go to Banyuepan." ”

Although Amber doesn't know as much as Eleven Niang, a three-year-old child has disappeared from the half-moon, how to think about it is weird.

She nodded repeatedly.

Take a deep breath. Don't let people see the flaws. Eleven Niang instructed Amber, and she took a breath first.

Things have already happened, and it is useless to think about it. The only thing that can be done now is to find a way to deal with the aftermath.

When I think about it, my mind immediately calms down.

Eleven Niang walked out with Amber with a straight posture, and then asked the little maid to call Zhu Xiang.

"They're packing up at Half Moon Pan, and we're going to see it too." She smiled and ordered Zhu Xiang.

Zhu Xiang was not suspicious, and said with a smile: "The slave has always wanted to go and see." Madame would also like to see it? ”

"yes!" Eleven Niang chatted with her while taking her and Amber to the back garden. Amber broke up with Eleven Niang at the gate of the garden, and went to Mrs. Tai along the channel next to the leaky window wall, but Eleven Niang led Zhu Xiang past the Biyi Gate Pavilion, on the bluestone road in the east-west direction, and after the Chunyan Pavilion, along a sheep intestine path next to the hillside.

Zhu Xiang remained silent, and saw that there were occasional thorns sticking out from the side of the trail in front of her, and she walked in front of Eleven Niang. Soon I saw a river that was wide by a zhang, and a half-zhang wide red sedan chair was set up on the river.

This should be the only small bridge in the back garden that Luyun said can lead to Banyuepan.

She turned around and helped Eleven Niang: "Madame, be careful." ”

Eleven Niang nodded and looked at the three thatched houses under the hillside in front.

The surrounding is full of towering trees that are planted and hugged, and the people are high fences made of yellow mud and straw, which are divided into acres and acres, and the well platforms made of adobe and willow are all complete, and if you raise some geese, ducks and chickens, it is really a small farmhouse yard.

The two of them walked quickly to the fence gate, and were about to call someone, when a handsome boy of sixteen or seventeen years old walked out. Seeing Eleven Niang, he was overjoyed: "Madam." You're coming. ”

It is a photograph.

Eleven Niang nodded.

Zhaoying has taken three steps and made two steps to open the fence: "I'm afraid that Young Master Feng Liao is hiding somewhere, so he has been closing the fence gate." He explained.

"It's better to be cautious!" Eleven Niang responded on the one hand, and entered the half-moon pan with the shadow.

Different from the simplicity and nature outside, the thatched house is paved with bluestone, glass windows, gauze cabinets, and pineapple furniture.

Mr. Bai and Lin Bo had hurried up to salute.

Eleven Niang said: "What are you searching for?" ”

There was an awe-inspiring aura between her eyebrows, which made Manager Bai and Lin Bo stunned. After a pause, Manager Bai said, "It's all searched." I was preparing to search the outer courtyard. Before the words fell, Holly and Hamaju, whose eyes were red and swollen like walnuts, walked out of the east room with a cower.

"Ma'am, it's all our fault." The two knelt down in unison, "I didn't do what you told me to do." ”

"Get up!" What's the use of pursuing these now, it's important that everyone works together to find people.

Zhu Xiang stepped forward to help the two.

Eleven Niang was accompanied by Manager Bai, Lin Bo, and Zhaoying to observe the house.

The east room is the study. It is all a book with a masculet, a big kang near the window, a generous kang table, and a book of "Heart Sutra" on the kang table. The west room is the bedroom, with a six-pillar Wanzi head inlaid with a Nan wood bed, a half-new stone blue brocade forging tent, and a bright blue mattress royal blue quilt. The agarwood screen next to the bed, the high cabinet with four doors, a Longquan sword hanging on the wall, and a guqin on the window.

"Where is the child missing?" She asked.

Holly muttered, "It's not in the bedroom." ”

Eleven Niang looked carefully, but did not find the back door, and asked Zhaoying: "Except for the fence we came in just now, where else can I go out?" ”

Zhaoying led Eleven Niang out of the door, stood on the steps and pointed to the bluestone paved path under the hillside: "From here to the sandwich road leading to the outer courtyard, out of the sandwich road to the west all the way forward, there is a corner door." After the corner gate, there is the outer court. It's just that this corner door is locked on weekdays, and the key is only for me and Linbo. As he spoke, he took out a copper key strung with a red string from his collar and came out, "This is mine." ”

Lin Bo on the side listened to it and hurriedly pulled out the copper key he hung around his neck and showed it to Shi Niang: "This is mine." ”

"We went to see it just now, the key to the corner door is good, the secret mark left last time is still there, and no one has touched it."

Eleven Niang nodded, and entered the house with Lin Bo, Zhaoying, Manager Bai, Zhu Xiang and others.

She instructed Zhu Xiang, "You go and get a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and write down all the places that everyone has searched to see if there is anything missing." Then we divided it into blocks by place, and we searched again - children are not objects, they can run. He looked at Mr. Bai again, "This matter is still troublesome to Mr. Bai." Let's just say that Banyuepan lost something, please ask Mr. Bai to check, except for us, who else has entered Banyuepan. You'll give me a word in half an hour. I know what to do, so I can make arrangements. ”

Mr. Bai saw that Shi Niang was softly speaking, but he did things in an orderly manner, and spoke clearly and clearly, even if he was himself, he could only arrange it like this, and he thought that Hou Ye had moved all his daily habits to the main house...... Bow "yes" and check the whereabouts of the servant.

Zhu Xiang first made a cup of hot tea for Eleven Niang, and then got together with Binju, Holly, Linbo, and Zhaoying, and made a list of the places that had been checked.

"Under the bed, behind the tent, behind the screen, in the high cabinet, under the bookcase......"

I seem to have searched everywhere I could.

Eleven Niang asked Zhaoying: "Who is in charge of the east room?" Who is in charge of Nishima? Who is in charge of the hall? ”

Zhao said: "Holly girl and Hamaju girl are in charge of the east room. I'm in charge of Nishima, who is in charge of Linbo. Amber Girl and Mr. White are in charge of the hall. ”

"That's good. Now Holly and Terukage are in charge of the hall, Hamaju and Zhuxiang are in charge of the west and east rooms, and Lin Bo is in charge of the west rooms. Let's search again. ”

The six of them responded in unison, and searched the three rooms again, but still found nothing.

Under the auspices of a shrewd and capable person like Mr. Bai, there is no gain, and it is impossible to come forward by himself to have a qualitative change. This was originally expected by Eleven Niang, but the stakes were so high that I didn't search again, and I didn't give up.

Now it seems that we can only wait for the news of Mr. Bai.

Everyone was very discouraged, especially Holly and Hamma, like frosted eggplants.

You know, it was Holly who proposed it and Hamaju joined it at the time, and if this is investigated, they are the culprits.

Eleven Niang smiled at everyone soothingly: "Let's all sit down and rest!" I've been busy for most of the day, and I'm tired. Then he instructed Zhu Xiang to make a cup of tea for everyone, "Refresh." Let's search the yard again! ”

No one wants such a thing to happen, but also to be calm, and must not chase responsibility at this time, which chills everyone's hearts - if you still need to search for people at the meeting, you are afraid of being responsible, not seeking merit, only seeking no fault, and you will definitely not do your best.

Zhu Xiang quickly went to make tea.

Except for Holly and Hamaju who were still crying and mourning, everyone else looked slightly gloomy.

Eleven Niang's mind didn't stop.

She always felt that if someone was taken away, the captor would not take the trouble to take the food with him.

But it's searched up and down, and if it wasn't for being kidnapped, it would still be able to fly......

A thought flashed, and she couldn't help but look up at the roof.

Probably in keeping with the simplicity of the thatched house, Banyuepan did not pretend to be dusty, but painted the beams and pillars black and exposed to the outside.

"Linbo, Zhaoying, you come with me!"

The two hurriedly dropped the teacup and followed Shi Niang to the west room where Xu Lingyi was the bedroom.

"Go up and have a look." She pointed to the top of the six-pillar bed.

The two of them were startled and did not speak.

Lin Bo quickly took the pestle, stepped on the pestle, and looked up at the pillar with the shadow.

"Madame!" He turned his head sideways with a happy face, "Young Master Fengqing is on top." ”
