I'm going to become rich after being dressed as a five-year-old woman
Chapter 97 Finding the Culprit
Zhao Qiqi gritted his teeth and asked, "I also want to ask you why you are like this."
Gu Yansui was very anxious and scratched his head trying to recall when he left.
"Mom, I remember now. I had a severe stomachache just now, so I went to the toilet. I thought there were people outside Zuixianju, so it shouldn't be a problem."
Zhao Qiqi looked at him with a look of disappointment: "Have you asked someone to help you look at it?"
Gu Yansui lowered his head and shook his head: "No."
"I'm sorry, Mom." His voice was muffled, filled with regret and self-blame.
Seeing this, Zhao Qiqi couldn't bear to blame him any more. The child had never seen the world and thought he was still in the village, so he left everything open and unattended.
"It's okay, I'll go ask, and you come with me." Zhao Qiqi felt that he should be taught to understand the ways of the world and not just know how to farm in the village.
Zhao Qiqi walked up to the two servants guarding the door. The two servants naturally recognized who she was and asked politely, "Madam Zhao, what can I do for you?"
She sighed: "I don't know who took away all the peppers in my carriage while my son was going to the toilet."
The two looked at each other in surprise: "Didn't the servant move into the back? I saw the few people coming in from behind, and they were wearing the same clothes as the ones in the kitchen of Zuixianju, so I thought they were not enough to move out."
Zhao Qiqi frowned at this and waved her hand: "It must be an imposter."
Zhao Qiqi got on the carriage and thought, it was obvious that this person came prepared. To be honest, based on her years of experience in reading novels, she already had a suspicion as to who it was, but without evidence, it was impossible for her to search rashly. Besides, the person might have moved to a place she didn't even know.
Gu Yansui had a stomachache and Chili was quickly moved away.
Zhao Qiqi thought of this and suddenly lifted the car curtain and came out: "Yan Sui, you said you drank a glass of water and the pain started shortly afterwards. Where did you buy the water?"
Gu Yansui quickly looked towards the place where he had just bought tea, but it was now empty and there was no trace of anyone.
No matter how stupid he was, he guessed what had happened. He looked at Zhao Qiqi with some fear to verify whether his guess was correct.
Seeing A Niang nod, he hit himself twice, blaming himself for drinking these things. If he hadn't drunk them, he wouldn't have had a stomachache, and if he hadn't had a stomachache, the chili peppers wouldn't have been taken away by others.
"Don't overthink it. They are targeting you on purpose. Whether you drink that cup of tea or not, the chili peppers will be taken away."
It was obvious that everything had been prepared long ago, from tea to clothing. Otherwise, there would be other ways to steal the peppers, and maybe even stronger means would be used. Now that Gu Yansui did not run into that group of people head-on, not getting hurt was already the best outcome.
Zhao Qiqi got off the carriage and walked towards the little boy she had noticed at the beginning. She took out a bag of pear candy and said, "Little boy, do you know where the person who just moved the things on the carriage went?"
The boy took the thing from Zhao Qiqi's hand without hesitation, opened it, picked one and threw it into his mouth. Although he took the thing, he still did not answer Zhao Qiqi's words.
Zhao Qiqi took out a tael of silver and handed it to his broken bowl: "If you lead me to find it, I will give you another tael of silver after the task is completed."
The boy stood up, put away his bowl, and walked silently in front.
"Just stay here. The carriage is too eye-catching." Zhao Qiqi said to Gu Yansui.
Although Gu Yansui was worried, he knew that his mother was much smarter than him and would definitely know how to handle this matter.
Zhao Qiqi followed the boy, and after many twists and turns, they arrived at a small house.
She didn't go to He's house. She guessed that He Honglian did it, so it was normal that she wasn't at He's house. It would be terrible if she was discovered.
He pointed inside, and then slid away like a little loach, and disappeared in a flash.
Zhao Qiqi was a little scared, so he stepped forward bravely.
Hearing the sound of someone putting down the bolt and about to open the door, Zhao Qiqi quickly hid aside and completely concealed himself.
A tall and burly man walked out. Zhao Qiqi carefully looked outside. Wasn't this Gu Dafu who had come to Zhao Qiqi's house to cause trouble that day? !
Zhao Qiqi retracted his head and thought about what to do next.
"Really? What the hell is this? It's so choking, how can I burn it?"
"That is to say, there is no point in snatching something like this. The young lady is really something. She snatched it and burned it."
"Hey, you don't know this, right? The eldest lady can't get any good things, so naturally she doesn't want the cousin to do it. Now Chili is embarrassed, Zuixianju has it, and the cousin is going to make a fool of herself in front of everyone."
Zhao Qiqi watched Zhang Dafu and his men go away, feeling anxious. He wondered if all the peppers had been burned, but from what they said, it shouldn't have been, right?
After remembering this location, Zhao Qiqi hurried to Penglai Pavilion.
"I'm looking for Miss Shen from your family. Please pass the message on for me."
The servant went inside to invite the person and came out after a while.
"Oh, who was it? It turned out to be my sister. Why did you come here to look for my niece instead of my sister-in-law?"
Zhao Qiqi frowned and looked at the person who came. It was He Honglian, who looked very proud and proud in red. Her hands were well maintained, with nail polish painted on and jewelry and jadeite on, making her look particularly wealthy.
Zhao Qiqi looked so shabby that the servants around him thought he was a relative who came to beg for money, and they all looked at him with contempt.
It seems that Shen Shihui is no longer here. Zhao Qiqi let out a sigh of relief.
"Why, you feel disappointed when you see me? Why did you come here today, sister? If you ask me, sister and I are a real family, so we should work together."
He Honglian had been fanning herself and smiling before, but now the smile disappeared from her face. Instead, she said this sentence with a vague warning in her eyes, gritting her teeth.
