Chapter 569: Is the Owner of This Finger the Thief?
Liu Yue smiled, tapped the tip of the girl's nose lovingly, and just said: "Silly girl."
The girl looked at the person in front of her. Although she felt that he was familiar to her, it was strange that he was so close to her after meeting her for the first time. However, she couldn't bear to see that everyone was beautiful and fragrant. The girl looked confused and her face He became even redder, his head lowered, and his ears felt hot.
Liu Yue looked gentle, but in fact, her scrutinizing eyes circled the girl several times, but she became more and more doubtful.
Is it really possible that this girl is the daughter of the Seventh Prince?
It’s okay to have a rough face, but she still has a little family spirit about her, but her clothes, although clean and tidy, are not noble at all. If you say she is an ordinary girl, that’s it, but she is the Seventh Prince...
To put it bluntly, in Kyoto, even a maid from a wealthy family can see better than this child.
Liu Yue covered up her thoughts and wanted to say something, but Rong Su said coldly: "Just let it go."
Liu Yue was stunned for a moment, and realized that this sentence was meant for herself. She frowned slightly and thought to herself, did he really treat her as a servant? But without pausing, he honestly started clearing the table.
Seeing this, the little girl hurriedly wanted to help, but Rong Su held her hand down and said, "You're tired, go get some sleep."
The girl shook her head: "I'm not tired, let me clean it up, don't dirty the girl's hands..."
"Go to sleep." Rong Su's voice turned colder and his tone became more severe.
The little girl was frightened and stood aside, not daring to move, but she felt extremely aggrieved.
I feel like an orphan now. My sister, Young Master Liu, Third Young Master, Young Young Master, and even Pearl and Gugu are not around. I feel like I have been kidnapped by the Seventh Young Master. I have to watch his face all the time and bear his moody temper.
The little girl pursed her lips and wanted to leave. She didn't like being alone with the Seventh Young Master at all.
Liu Yue cleared the table obediently and slowly, her mind always focused on the interaction between the two.
But Rong Su saw that the little girl was still for a long time, so he simply stood up, took the little girl by the back of her collar, lifted her directly to the small soft couch, put the quilt over the little girl's head, and said coldly: "Sleep."
The girl pulled down the quilt, revealing a pair of dark eyes, and begged: "I...can I go back to my room to sleep?"
"No." Rong Su refused without hesitation. Rong Leng said that putting the three patients together would make it easier to take care of them.
The little girl got into the quilt pitifully and timidly turned her back to Rong Su, expressing her dissatisfaction in a small way.
Rong Su looked at the girl's movements, as if he didn't notice anything, and just stood up. When he turned his head, he saw that Liu Yue had not finished cleaning up, and he frowned.
Liu Yue had been paying attention to Rong Su, and when she saw this, she quickly moved quickly, put away the food box, and then resigned obediently.
The door closed and the room became quiet.
Rong Su held a book and sat on a wide chair. He glanced at the motionless bed, and then at the girl who had her back to him, as if she had fallen asleep.
Open the pages of the book and read slowly.
The sunshine from the window shines in. Instead of the coldness last night, it turns out to be a warm day.
At the same time, in the yamen, Liu Wei was wearing gloves, holding the severed finger in his hand, looking at it very seriously.
Sun Qi shrank from the side and asked cautiously: "Master Liu, this... this is Zhong Xian... bah, is it the thief's finger?"
Liu Wei said nothing, only looked at it for a while, then put down the severed finger, crossed his hands, and looked at the people in the hall: "Who discovered this severed finger?"
Several government officials looked at each other, and finally Sun Qi said: "This is what Shanda Niang found out."
"Sheng Sheng Niang?" Liu Wei was confused.
Brother Hu said: "Sir, Madam Sheng is the cook in the back kitchen of our Yamen. When Madam Sheng came to the Yamen this morning, she saw it outside the gate. She saw that it was in a beautifully embroidered box, so she picked it up and took a look. Who knew? Once you open it, it’s..."
Liu Wei listened, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Where is Madam Shanda?"
Brother Hu pointed outside: "At this time, I'm probably going to buy groceries, and I'll prepare lunch later." There are many people in the yamen, many mouths, and few people in the kitchen, so meals must be prepared in advance, otherwise they will arrive It's too late.
Liu Wei nodded and said: "Call that lady Sheng, I'll just ask you a few questions."
Since Mr. Liu insisted, and since this was related to the case, Brother Hu agreed and sent a small yamen servant to find someone.
While looking for the person, Sun Qi asked Liu Wei: "Master Liu, how do you tell me whether the owner of this finger is the thief? If you can't tell, then..."
"Master Sun, please be patient." Although this case is under the control of Zhengemen, after all, the case occurred in Guyong Mansion. As the governor of Guyong Mansion, Sun Qi has no shirk of responsibility. Even if he does not participate in the case process on weekdays, at critical moments , still keep an eye on it.
You know, other things come second. Seeing that the Guyong Mansion Tourist Base is about to open, if this serial murder case remains unsolved, then no matter how beautiful their Guyong Mansion is, no one will come to visit.
After all, who knows if he might happen to be targeted by a murderer on the run?
Sun Qi was very anxious, but Master Liu still told him to calm down, which made him even more anxious, who was already impatient.
Just at this time, the young yamen servant outside dragged a middle-aged woman in. Next to the woman, there was a little girl carrying a vegetable basket.
"Sir, sir... Madam Sheng just happened to come back from shopping for groceries, so I... I brought Madam Sheng here." The little yamen servant said, still out of breath and unable to work up the energy, obviously running in a hurry.
Also, he had been out for less than a quarter of an hour, and he came back so quickly, which was obviously a move.
But looking at the grand lady and the little girl next to her, they were all running smoothly and didn't have any breath at all.
Liu Wei looked at her calmly, and just when she was about to speak, she saw the little girl carrying the vegetable basket took out two pieces of sesame cakes from the basket, stepped forward cheerfully, handed them to Sun Qi, and said crisply: "Master Sun, Mrs. Sheng said that you came to the Yamen too early today, and I'm afraid you may not have time to have breakfast. I brought this from the stall. Eat it quickly, don't go hungry."
Sun Qi took the sesame seed cake with a smile and said in a calm voice, "Xiao Qing is a virtuous person. Whoever marries you in the future will be really lucky." He held the sesame seed cake and took a bite.
Xiao Qing's cheeks turned red when he heard him praising her. She put down the vegetable basket shyly and said to Sheng Niang: "Auntie, I brought the basket back for you. I, I have to go back to take care of the stall. Dad can't do it alone. I Let's go first..." After saying that, he glanced at Sun Qi shyly, snickered, and turned to leave.
Seeing this scene, Liu Wei raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at Sun Qi teasingly.
But at a glance, all he could see was that Sun Qi was eating sesame seed cakes with big mouthfuls and making secret glances at the girl. He didn't take in the slightest bit of attention. He only ate to the end, smacked his lips, and poured himself a glass of water.
Liu Wei's face suddenly fell down, and she thought to herself, no wonder Sun Qi is still single!
