Hongdou saw that most of the people had walked to the position she had specially vacated, and she was not worried, anyway, she had enough cold powder, so she simply mixed a pot of money and let everyone present eat some.

Interested people successively fenced off the location where the red bean was located, and also blocked the red bean's view.

At the same time, a fire-burning girl stood up silently in front of the stove.

She had been waiting for a long time, but there were so many people in the kitchen that it was difficult for her to find an opportunity.

If I miss this time again, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

She saw that everyone's attention was all on the girl of the Xie family at this time, so she pretended to take a few steps around casually, and came to a special location for preparing cold powder and ingredients.

Seeing that no one would see her at this moment, she endured the nervousness in her heart, took out the medicinal powder hidden in advance in her sleeve, and the next moment she was going to sprinkle it in the spice basin on the side.

The fire girl was also very nervous, this was the first time she had done something bad and hurt someone, but that person said that it would just make her stomach a little uncomfortable, and it wouldn't be a big deal.

And the other party also gave her a sum of money. It's the first time she's seen so much money.

Seeing that it was about to be done, at this moment, a pair of hands suddenly stretched out and grabbed the wrist of the fire girl.

The fire girl was already a thief, and the sudden touch made her scream in fear.

"Ah~"

Everyone was gathered on the side, but when they heard the movement, they turned their heads at the same time, and happened to see Xiao Ya, who had been playing outside, holding the wrist of the fire girl at this time.

Steward Zhao in the kitchen walked over as soon as possible and noticed what was in the hands of the maid in the house.

Steward Zhao is the old man of the Zhao family, and in the blink of an eye, she already had a guess in her heart, her eyes couldn't help but widen, and she asked in a calm voice:

"What's in your hands?"

The fire maid saw that everyone had their eyes open, and looked at her in disbelief.

At this moment, she was afraid, flustered, scared, helpless, and all the bad emotions filled her mind.

She was so scared that she didn't know what to say.

"I, I, I don't know anything, I don't know anything."

The fire maid tried her best to break free from Xiaoya's hand and escape. But Xiaoya's strength is too great, and a big man can't compare to it, let alone a little girl.

"You let go of me, let go of me."

The fire maid just wanted to escape at the moment, but now that she was caught, she couldn't imagine what the consequences would be.

"Someone, grab her for me." Steward Zhao gave an order, and the two mothers-in-law who dared to work rough immediately went up and set up the maid's arm, making her unable to move.

Seeing this, Xiaoya returned to Hongdou's side, and at the same time winked at Hongdou proudly.

After Hongdu blinked in response, he stepped forward to talk to Steward Zhao.

"Steward Zhao, look at this... But how is it good? ”

"Everything was inspected in the house when it came, and now that something has happened in the house, you must be in charge of our sisters."

"We are just the surname of the little boss, and we eat together, but we don't dare to offend the master of the house and the distinguished guests who came to the door today."

Hongdou had an aggrieved expression on his face, as if he had fallen into bad luck.

(It's a bad luck indeed.) Shopkeeper Zhou is harmful, but I can't say it now. ）

Steward Zhao naturally can't blame the Xie family for this matter, the people in the house were caught and debunked in front of them, and it was impossible for her to beat her upside down.

She signed a death contract, and she was in charge of the kitchen, even if what this person wanted to do didn't succeed in the end, she couldn't escape it.

A negligence management responsibility is not able to escape.

Phew, this kind of eating inside and outside the steak is now harming everyone in the kitchen, and she will never let it go.

"Tie up the people and lock them in the firewood room, I'll go back to the second son first, don't watch it carefully."

After Steward Zhao finished speaking, he sighed and went to find Zhao Jinyuan nearby.

Zhao Jinyuan already knew about this at this time, and Ah Chang had already listened to Zhao Jinyuan's instructions and observed in secret, so as not to blind anyone.

I didn't expect someone to die.

So Steward Zhao was only halfway when he bumped into the oncoming Zhao Jinyuan.

"Second son, I... Before he finished speaking, he was blocked by Zhao Jinyuan raising his hand.

Zhao Jinyuan walked straight to the big kitchen without stopping for a moment.

The helpless Steward Zhao had to look at Ah Chang and ask silently, and Ah Chang signaled that Gongzi already knew, and quickly followed.

In the firewood room, Zhao Jinyuan took the two red beans, as well as the kitchen steward Zhao, and the two rough mothers-in-law, and began to interrogate the unclean maid in Fangcai's hands.

"Say, whoever instructed you, as long as you confess the person behind the scenes, I can still let you live."

Zhao Jinyuan was quite impatient to deal with this kind of thing, as if he was a wicked person.

But who let him take care of the kitchen today? And today is his mother's birthday, he can't let his family follow him to embarrass him.

The maid's face was full of fear, and she didn't dare to look at Zhao Jinyuan's eyes, so she only blindly kowtowed and admitted her mistake: "Childe, the slave and maid know that she is wrong, the slave and maid are just confused for a while, and there is absolutely no intention of harming people, please spare your life." ”

Zhao Jinyuan stood in front of her and looked at her condescendingly: "As long as you say who instructed you, I will spare your life." ”

The maid held back for a long time, but she still didn't say anything, but just glanced at the red beans in dodge.

Hongdou was a little speechless, didn't she let the Zhao family misunderstand her like this?

"What did the girl think of me, but blame us for catching you and not allowing you to harm the guests who came today?"

Red Beans won't help people with the black pot, "Or look at me, but you think I offended you somewhere, so you let you poison me to take revenge?" ”

When the maid heard the word poison, she reacted a little big: "I didn't poison, it's not poison at all." ”

Obviously, it's just a medicine that makes people sick and uncomfortable, and it's good to rest for a few days.

"Oh, really?" Zhao Jinyuan looked at Ah Chang and asked Ah Chang to say what the medicine the doctor had tested.

"Returning to my son, this prescription has just been seen by the doctor, and it is an addictive medicine." Ah Chang was also a little surprised when he heard the doctor's words.

Nothing is addictive.

Once a person is addicted, he will not feel uncomfortable once, and it may be fatal in severe cases.

"Girl, do you still believe that you are not poison? This thing is so harmful, if you don't tell the person behind it, it will really make a big deal. ”

"I'm afraid the people who instigated you to do this didn't want you to live."

Hongdou looked at the maid and reminded kindly. She didn't believe it, at this time, the other party would help Zhou's shopkeeper hide it.

The maid really didn't expect that there was really something wrong with this medicine, she really thought it was just making people feel uncomfortable, she was deceived.

Thinking of this, the maid could no longer bear the anxiety in her patience, and she knelt and moved two steps forward, at this moment she only wanted to pluck herself clean:

"Childe, it's not a slave, it's really not, someone instructed the slave to do this."

"The man gave the slave a sum of money, saying that it was just to make people feel sick and would not harm people's lives."

"The slave doesn't know what enmity that person has with the little lady of the Xie family, the slave and maid are just confused for a while, and they ask the son to spare his life."

The maid kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, the reason why she dared to have this courage was that she felt that it was not too big a problem to make a stomach, anyway, the summer sun was big, and it was normal for the food to be bad.

Even if someone really finds out, he won't lose his life, at most he will be sold.

What's more, the money given by the other party is enough for her to redeem herself and live a good life later.

She was emboldened by money, but she really didn't have the courage to harm others.
