Chapter 171: A Strange Sweet Smell (2nd Update)

Xu Jing suddenly thought of something and asked, "It's impossible for Mrs. Jiang to only have such a little jewelry?" ”

"Of course."

Jing Dan's face couldn't help but reveal a little pride, and her chin raised slightly: "Our young lady has a lot of jewelry, and there is a special warehouse in the house to place the young lady's jewelry."

Whenever there is a new style on the market in various silver buildings in Xijing, someone will personally bring these jewelry to the door to ask the young lady to choose. The jewelry in the jewelry box is the latest model that the young lady often wears during this time, and some of the more expensive or outdated jewelry is put away because there are not many opportunities to wear it, and we will regularly help the young lady replace the jewelry in the jewelry box. ”

Xu Jing couldn't help but secretly sigh at the extravagance of the life of the powerful in Xijing, thought about it, and asked, "How often do you usually replace the jewelry in your young lady's jewelry box?" ”

Jing Dan glanced at Xu Jing strangely, not understanding why she asked this question, but still said truthfully: "We all change it once a month, and we all change it at the beginning of the month." ”

It's early August, and according to Jing Dan, it's not long since they replaced the jewelry.

Xu Jing, who has the memory of the original owner, knows how fanatical the pursuit of the so-called new jewelry and clothes in the circle of Xijing nobles is, it is simply to the point of perversion, but whenever a noble girl wears outdated jewelry or wears outdated clothes and appears in front of people, she will be ridiculed and ridiculed by people, and she will not dare to go out again for half a year.

Although the Xu family did not give much dowry to the original owner, and the dowry of the original owner's wife had already been divided up by them under various pretexts, the Xu family gave it and gave a lot, but it was all used by the original owner to buy all kinds of the latest jewelry and clothes, which made her desperate after being driven out of the capital in the end, and she was so depressed that she couldn't even give the rental money for renting a house.

Therefore, Xu Jing was sure that although the thieves stole most of Mrs. Jiang's hairpins, Mrs. Jiang would never wear those hairpins that were outdated.

Most likely, she will have people buy back the stolen jewelry, or just use these four steps until the new jewelry is available again.

However, according to the fanaticism of the Xijing ladies circle for the latest jewelry, many jewelry is often sold out not long after it is listed, just like the limited models of many luxury brands in modern times, even if the merchants have the goods, they must say that they are not in stock, otherwise how can they highlight the uniqueness of those goods?

Xu Jing's eyes became darker and darker.

Therefore, after the thieves stole Mrs. Jiang's hairpin and hairpin, Mrs. Jiang could probably only use these four steps to shake, is there any purpose in this?

Xu Jing raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Jiang who was not far away, and said, "I don't know if Mrs. Jiang doesn't mind if I pick up these steps and shake them to check?" ”

These steps can be imagined to be expensive, and Xu Jing, an ordinary person who has just run to a well-off life, does not dare to touch it.

Mrs. Jiang was slightly stunned, and her face couldn't help but show some doubts, and she nodded, "Of course." ”

Xu Jing cautiously picked up a step shake and looked at it carefully for a long time, on the surface, there was nothing wrong with these steps.

After thinking about it, she put the step shake under her nose, sniffed it lightly, and the whole person paused for a moment.

On this step, there was a faint sweet fragrance, because the taste was relatively light, and there was a strong smoked fragrance in the room, so she couldn't smell it if she didn't get close.

She looked up at Jing Dan, who was looking at her curiously, and asked, "You young ladies usually use incense, right?" What kind of aromatherapy is used? Can you give me a sniff? ”

Jing Dan was stunned for a moment when she was asked, and replied completely subconsciously, "Our young lady likes the fragrance of laurel, so she uses the incense of laurel on weekdays, which is the smell in the room now." ”

Xu Jing's brows furrowed suddenly.

No, the sweet scent on the step shake is not the same as the smell in the room!

She picked up the step shake, handed it to Jing Dan and said, "I just smelled a slight sweet fragrance on this step shake, do you smell it, can you use similar incense on weekdays?" ”

Jing Dan was stunned, and quickly took it and sniffed it, his face changed instantly, "This ...... What does it taste like? The slave didn't seem to have smelled this before! ”

As she spoke, she quickly picked up the other steps, sniffed them one by one, and her face became more and more heavy.

Every step is shaken, and there is a similar taste!

Couldn't it be poisoned?

Seeing Jing Dan's pale face, Xu Jing guessed what she was thinking, shook her head and said: "It shouldn't be poison, the smell on these step shakes is very light, even if it is poison, its amount is very small, to rely on such a small amount to poison people, you must let that person wear these step shakes for many years, but you just said that you will change your jewelry once a month."

Of course, it would be difficult to say if the thief did the same for other jewelry. ”

Jing Dan's face suddenly became even more ugly.

Xu Jing continued to ask: "After your young lady got sick, you shouldn't have touched these jewelry, right?" ”

Jing Dan nodded hurriedly, "Yes, in fact, we are not sure if those hairpins were stolen three days ago, but three days ago, the slave accidentally found that the second layer of the jewelry box was not closed properly, revealing a gap, and when I opened it, I found that the hairpins were missing!" ”

You can steal the hairpin, and you can shake your hands and feet for the rest of the steps......

Xu Jing looked at everyone present thoughtfully, and already had some speculation in her heart.

Unexpectedly, Xu Jing really discovered some abnormalities that they hadn't discovered, and Mrs. Jiang couldn't help but panic and said, "Doctor Xu, what's going on, could it be that someone in this family really wants to ...... Kill me? ”

Although she had some bad premonitions before, because there was no evidence, she only thought that she was sick and cranky.

Even if, even if someone really wanted to harm her, she thought it was just some prank against her, and if that person was coming for her life, the severity of the matter would be completely different!

Xu Jing said suddenly: "I don't think it should be poison on Bu Shao, after all, there are not many people who can enter Mrs. Jiang's room and shake their hands and feet at Bu, and this is still a long-term job, you have to do it at least once a month, this time he took advantage of Mrs. Jiang Shao's illness to get it?" What's next time? It's all too easy to spot. ”

The other party is the wife of the Jiang family, what will be the consequences of annoying the Jiang family, everyone in Dachu knows.

Xu Jing felt that this mastermind behind the scenes should not be so stupid.

Zhao Shaohua couldn't help but say: "That's ...... What's the deal with the sweet scent on the step? ”

Xu Jing suddenly asked: "How did Mrs. Jiang see the painting of the fourth lady?" At that time, Mrs. Jiang should have been sick, right? ”

What happened recently around Mrs. Jiang Shao is not only the theft of the hairpin.

Xu Jing originally felt that it was too much of a coincidence that so many things happened at the same time, maybe there was some unknown connection between these things?

Jingshui immediately gritted his teeth and said: "It was the fourth lady who took the initiative to show the young lady when she came to visit the young lady, we thought at the time that the fourth lady actually took the initiative to visit the patient, which had never happened before, who would have thought that the fourth lady would have such a vicious mind!" At that time, the fourth lady came with the woman Hua Niangzi, who knows what role that woman played in it! ”

Xu Jing glanced at her, nodded and said, "Can you take me to see the place where the painting is drawn?" ”

Just now they said that the painting of the fourth lady is a road leading to the courtyard of the old lady of Huaiyin, and Xiao Xueqiu liked to play on that road the most when he was alive.

Although this request was confusing, they didn't dare to underestimate Xu Jing now, and Mrs. Jiang immediately asked Jing Dan to take Xu Jing over.

Zhao Shaohua casually found an excuse to follow, took Xu Jing's hand and whispered, "Doctor Xu, do you really think there is a conspiracy against Mrs. Jiang in this mansion?" If you are mistaken, I am afraid that Young Lady Jiang and the people in the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion will have opinions on you. ”

Xu Jing could hear that Zhao Shaohua was worried about her.

If she thinks about all this too much, I am afraid that Mrs. Jiang Shao will think that she is deliberately dividing the relationship between her and her husband's family, that is, she raised these doubts with good intentions and did bad things with good intentions. (End of chapter)
