Chapter 112 There is indeed a problem

For this reason, Chu Qinglan thought in her heart that when her master came out, she must find a way to punish him properly.

Who knew that the old nanny would actually tell her that the master of the mansion was not there!
Chu Qinglan couldn't help frowning, and immediately asked, "Where did your master go, and when will you be back?"

"I don't know about this, because our master often likes to go out for various kinds of sightseeing, and rarely returns to the house, so it is possible to come back once every ten days and half a month, and it is normal not to come back for a few years. "

It's not surprising that he doesn't come back often. What's strange is that since the owner of the mansion is away, why would he suddenly think of asking someone to come back and clean the backyard.

Although cleaning up the backyard is not a big deal, it is quite important for small households, and it will cost a lot of money to hire someone to come back and clean up the backyard. If there is no permission from the master, which of the slaves will Dare to assert yourself?
The old mother seemed to see through the doubts in her heart, and quickly explained with a smile: "Princess, don't get me wrong, I didn't invite someone to come here on my own initiative, but my master just came back a few days ago and happened to see The backyard is in a mess, so I ordered the old slave to find someone to do the work, and after explaining the matter, my master set off for another trip to the mountains and rivers."

This explanation did not sound like a big problem, but for some reason, Chu Qinglan always felt something strange in her heart.

For example, she obviously didn't ask anything verbally, why is the old mother so proactive? She took the initiative to tell their master's whereabouts without waiting for her to ask.

Looking at it, it is clear that the old mother has seen the doubt in her heart, but she obviously hides this doubt very deeply, how can ordinary people see it easily?

unless……

Chu Qinglan's mind froze, she thought of something in a trance, and couldn't help but look at the old nanny intentionally or unintentionally.

The old mother was so uncomfortable being stared at, she laughed a few times, and then said: "Princess, the old servant has already explained to you very clearly what happened today, this is just a misunderstanding. Please forgive me, princess, don't blame us."

The other party's posture is so low, it will teach her not to find anything wrong in a while.I had to say: "This matter can be put aside for the time being, what about the work? I heard that you pick on them in every possible way for their dirty work, and even claimed that something was lost in the mansion, but it was stolen by them." Go. This matter is of great importance, so we must investigate it carefully and discuss it, right?"

As Liu Sanniang said earlier, although their group of women were poor, they were absolutely noble. At least in the one month or so that she worked under her, there had never been a situation like today.

And she also absolutely believed that they would never do low-level sneaky behaviors.

So no matter what this innocence is, she will ask Liu Sanniang and the others to get it back.

The old mother also knew the truth: "Well, this is just a misunderstanding. You ladies have done a good job. As for the things, it was all the old slave's misunderstanding. It turned out that the things were not lost. They were sent by the servants of the mansion. It was misplaced, so that people would misunderstand that it was stolen.”

At this point, the old mammy made a special appearance of being ashamed, and bowed down to everyone to apologize.

Duo Duo is a posture that can be lowered as low as it can be lowered.

When all the women saw that their grievances were finally cleared up, they were all so happy that they burst into tears.

Although Chu Qinglan was very comforted in her heart, she couldn't let go when she thought of the many doubts before.In addition, she still has important matters waiting to go back and investigate, so she won't waste time on it right now.

He said coldly: "That's very good, as for the matter of Ru Niang's drowning, let's wait for the Yamen to interrogate and find out what happened."

After speaking, Chu Qinglan turned around and left.

When he returned to the mansion, Mo Beiyu was already waiting in the main hall.

Seeing that she finally came back, Mo Beiyu hurriedly got up to greet her, and said, "I've heard about what happened in the west of the city, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, but Ru Niang died, and I always feel that the family is weird, something is wrong?"

When Mo Beiyu heard the words, he immediately asked, "How do you say that?"

Chu Qinglan didn't hide anything from him, and immediately told him everything she had seen and heard in the mansion in the west of the city.

Finally he said: "Think about it, one, if that family is not weird, why is there no one in the family who can take care of such a big matter.

Two, that old mama is just an ordinary slave, but she seems to be able to read minds, and she can understand what I am thinking and confusing.These two things alone are strange enough, let alone others. "

Mo Beiyu listened thoughtfully, and said after a long time: "It's really weird to hear you say that, besides, I remember that during the previous inspection, the west side of the city seemed to have been run down, and there were no such rich and noble families, but now they are out of thin air. If you take it out, you can see that there must be something strange in it."

After speaking, he suggested again: "How about this, I'll first find a way to sneak into it and find out."

Chu Qinglan naturally has no objection to this, but she feels that it is not enough for people to sneak in to find out the truth, so she proposes to prepare with both hands. See if you can find out where the old nanny and the slaves are sent from.

Mo Beiyu was worried that she would go alone, so he went with her.

What a coincidence.

Originally, Chu Qinglan was just lucky enough to see if she could find out the identities of the old mother and the servant or where they came from, but she accidentally learned from the dentist that the old mother and the servant were not Local people, and they were sold to Fucheng by other powerful people a few days ago.

Coincidentally, not long after the old nun and the servant were sold here, they were bought by one person just last night.

Ya Ren said: "That master was very generous, and he bought him away without asking the price. Not only that, that master also bought several other servants from me."

Chu Qinglan and Mo Beiyu were very surprised when they heard it, and thought, since that family was able to buy so many slaves and go back in the middle of the night, it is obviously not the mansion that has always been so prosperous as the old woman said before , but more like it was gathered overnight.

It is not uncommon for some people in this world to suddenly buy a house or a slave to enjoy themselves after they got rich overnight.

However, if the other party is really just going back to enjoy the purchase of slaves, then it is absolutely impossible to turn around and go outside to play in the mountains and rivers without caring about the enjoyment after all these arrangements are made.

It can be seen that there must be problems in this mansion.

Thinking of this, Chu Qinglan immediately asked Yaren: "What does that man you're talking about look like?"

"I don't know about that. It was dark that night, and I couldn't see clearly at all. The man was still wrapped up tightly, and he was wearing a bamboo hat on his head. It was hard to see how long he was No matter what he looks like, the only thing that stands out is his stuttering."

"Stuttering?"

"Yeah, such a tall man stutters when he speaks. I feel tired listening to him talk."

Chu Qinglan nodded when she heard the words, and for a while she didn't know whether to be moved or disappointed by this.

Although they found out that the other person's characteristic is stuttering, but who can detect this kind of thing as long as the other person doesn't speak?
At least it's not like the facial features. After knowing it, you can directly draw a portrait, and then conduct a large-scale search.

Seeing her sad face, Mo Beiyu quickly held her hand gently, and comforted him: "Don't worry, although we don't know what that person looks like, we have some clues at least, as long as we continue to investigate according to this clue, we will be able to find out." Don’t be afraid that that person will escape.”

He also said: "Besides, didn't we send Eleven to find out the news? Maybe he will bring us good news later."

"I hope so." Chu Qinglan forced a smile, and had no choice but to pin her hopes on Eleven for the time being.

Eleven's infiltration did not bring back any useful information for the two of them. At most, they only found out that the person who bought those slaves brought them all to the mansion, and after explaining the relevant matters, he never appeared again.

This is one of them.
