Chapter 24 The Disappearing Nurse
Fortunately, Master Hua Si had the eyesight and volunteered to take Captain Yin with him. Master Hua's face regained his blood.
Hua Jingyao watched coldly. No matter whether her death or whether it was Linlin's death, Master Hua should not know who the murderer was, but what about Mrs. Cai? Madam Sun and those mothers were hers. Without her orders, these people would not be able to smuggle Linlin's coffin out of the house.
I can't let Madam Sun be a scapegoat, I must think of a way.
"Little guy, where are you from?"
Luo Jiong's voice suddenly came from behind him. Hua Jingyao turned around and saw that Luo Jiong had run behind her at some point and was smiling at Hua Xiaoli.
Hua Xiaoli raised her head proudly and said loudly: "I am from my sister's family."
Hua Jingyao burst out laughing. This was her first laugh after seeing herself. It was not right. It was Linlin's body.
Xiaoli looked over in surprise and showed a big smile on her face. His teeth were white and neat, and there was a crystal light in the sun.
"Sister, you are smiling." Xiaoli quickly stood beside Hua Jingyao and gave Luo Jiong a look of disgust. The fat white man had a bad smell of sauce-fried pork buns, which he didn't like.
Not only this fat man, but the people around him were smelly, the smell of sweat and feet. He even smelled the smell of dog shit on a yamen runner.
Only my sister is fragrant, but my sister is always fragrant.
When Luo Jiong noticed that Miss Hua had seen him, he had no choice but to smile helplessly.
Because of this special hobby, he has been despised since he was a child, and he has become accustomed to it.
Seeing the helplessness in his smile, Hua Jingyao suddenly remembered what Luo Yingjun said, and she couldn't help but recite it: "I stood among the dead, feeling the pain before their death. I seemed to hear them talking to me, without disdain, only trust. At this moment, I am no longer lonely."
Luo Jiong looked at her in surprise, and suddenly burst into tears: "Miss Hua, you are saying it too right, I often feel this way. I want to write what you said into the book... By the way, can I write it?"
Hua Jingyao was dumbfounded, and after a while, she nodded: "...write..."
"Thank you, thank you!"
Luo Jiong wiped tears. He was born in a noble family. A few generations ago, the Jianming Body Mansion was still the Marquis' Mansion. At that time, Luo family had a bright son Luo Qi, but unfortunately the Luo family only had one Luo Qi, and his descendants were inferior to the other. Luo Jiong's uncle was sued for the lawsuit, and Jianming Hou Mansion was demoted to Jianming Body Mansion. His uncle died in depression. Since then, the Luo family has become strict with their children. Luo Jiong's cousin Luo Chi is the hope of the family, and he was the least popular one in the family since he was a child.
Qin Wei was far away, but he saw Miss Hua as if she had said something to Luo Rongzhu, and then Luo Rongzhu actually cried, cried, cried!
At this time, Master Hua Si and Captain Yin came over with a group of panicked women.
Hua Jingyao looked at those people and asked, "Why didn't the wet nurse come together?"
Hua Jingyao actually doesn't remember her wet nurse any longer. Since she can remember, there is no wet nurse by her side. It is said that she was stung by a poisonous bee and escaped from death, but her wet nurse was not in good condition and was still bombarded by the mansion.
Later, her father took Liu Ma who had returned to her hometown to take care of her. Liu Ma Ma was her father's wet nurse. From four to ten years old, she was beside her maid, and was Liu Ma Ma. Later, she was exiled to Guangxi with her father, and then she separated from Liu Ma Ma.
At this time, Mama Liu has not returned to the Hou Mansion, and the person next to Miss Wu should be her wet nurse.
Now it seems that the wet nurse in her previous life might not have been really bombarded by the mansion, and she might have silenced her.
Hua Jingyao was anxious to ask someone to bring her tamper over, just because she was worried that things would develop like she did in her previous life.
But most of these maids and mothers knew each other. Judging from their clothes and age, there was no wet nurse among them.
Hua Jingyao waved at Shi Yi, and Shi Yi came over. She whispered a few words to Shi Yi, and Shi Yi turned around and left.
Luo Jiong kept paying attention to Hua Jingyao. When he saw her sending someone away, he didn't know what the young lady was selling.
Sure enough, Captain Yin said to Qin Wei: "Sir, Miss Hua Wu's wet nurse is not in the mansion. After these people said that the fifth girl was stinged by poisonous bees, the wet nurse said that she had a prescription for bee venom at home, so she hurried out of the mansion and has not come back until now."
"Oh?" Qin Wei looked sarcastic and said, "The girl she was serving was injured. She did not stay with the girl, but instead left the house by herself? Can't she send someone to her house to get the prescription?"
As he said that, Qin Wei looked at Master Hua: "Can the servants in the mansion leave the mansion at will?"
Master Hua's back felt cold and he felt cold sweat coming out.
Of course, the servants in the mansion cannot leave the mansion at will. The servants in each court must obtain the cards before they can leave the mansion after obtaining the cards. The one in charge of the cards is the eldest lady, Lü.
"This... I will never ask about the affairs of the Hou's house." Master Hua squeezed out this sentence.
"Report to Lord Qin, I know this."
As soon as Master Hua finished speaking, he heard Hua Jingyao's voice. This niece not only had no rules, but also became more and more annoying.
Qin Wei looked at Hua Jingyao and said, "I'll ask Miss Hua to talk about it."
Hua Jingyao pointed to a maroon-colored woman in the group brought by Captain Yin and said, "The one Zhang Fa is the one in charge of my father's yard. A few years ago, my father went out for a trip, and she was in charge of the affairs in the yard. Later, when my father came back, she had to go out. The wet nurse went out with her consent and then took the cards from her hand. The cards in the mansion were in charge of Mrs. Lu. How many cards were sent out in the morning and how many cards were handed back in the evening. I heard that my sister was stung by a poisonous bee in the afternoon, so the wet nurse should have received the cards from the mansion yesterday afternoon. She has not come back yet. I wonder how Zhang Fa's home asked Mrs. Lu to reply to Mrs. Lu?"
Zhang Fayou's family was only about 30 years old. He used to be the first-class maid next to Mrs. Cai in Chunhui Hall. Later, he married Zhang Fayou, the eldest son of Master Hua, and became a steward.
In his previous life, there was a little bit of trouble in the yard of Hua Yukun, the Grandma Cai, who was the third master of Hua San, and Mrs. Cai knew that it was all due to Zhang Fa's family.
Hua Jingyao pointed to Zhang Fayou's home, and the woman was calm. She walked over slowly and blessed her blessing, and said to Qin Wei: "Report to the master, when Huang Li left the mansion, she did ask me for the cards. She was the wet nurse of the fifth girl. Although I was in charge of the affairs of the Third Master's yard, I couldn't take care of the wet nurse of the fifth lady. She came to ask for the cards, but for the fifth girl, I never gave it to me. Yesterday, Huang Li did not return to the mansion, but sent someone to send the cards back, and I handed over the cards. The person who sent the cards for her said that she did not find a prescription when she went home and asked for it at her relative's house. I didn't even see her. What else can I do? Alas, even if the adults don't ask today, I will report it to the old lady and the eldest lady."
After all, Zhang Fayou's family was a maid and a woman who had been a steward for several years. She spoke eloquently and without any leakage. She pushed her responsibilities completely and took out Mrs. Lu.
