"Hingyu, what's the matter with you?" Su Li put down the messy embroidery of mandarin ducks playing in the water, and asked the absent-minded maid Qingyu.
Herring only recovered after she asked her a question. The little girl is not very old, and her personality is relatively simple.
"Young Mistress, today I saw... I saw Qing Guan sneaking out of the Lian Mansion. She walked through the small door in the backyard. The door there was locked long ago, and no one usually goes in or out. But Qing Guan But Guan went out secretly..." The more Qingyu said, the more she felt strange, "We servants are free to go in and out of the mansion, and we won't be so careful when we go out to run errands. Unless, unless she is uneasy and kind."
"The little door over there in the backyard?" Su Li asked.
Herring nodded, "Yes, that place is already deserted, but a piece of purple jade grass has grown out. That kind of grass smells very good, I want to pick some back to make sachets for the young lady. Then I just walked to that area , I saw Qingwan go out from there. I went to check later, the small door was not locked, she should have opened it with the key."
Su Li looked at Herring, "You didn't bring back the purple jade grass, so what did you do?"
Qingyu pursed her lips and said, "I... I locked the door. Then I was worried that Qingwan would find out that I did it, so I hurried back."
Su Li couldn't help but curl her lips when she heard this, "You're forcing her to go through the front door. If there's anything unusual about her, other people can see her, right?"
Herring nodded, "Young Mistress is really smart, that's what I thought."
Su Li raised her hand and tapped her forehead, "You, cleverness is cleverness, but not cautious. If Qingwan really harbors evil intentions, wouldn't she be aware of something like this?"
Herring was stunned, "Then did I do something wrong?"
"Not really, you can go and see if Qingwan is back later." Su Li knew in her heart that Wei Qingwan probably went to see Chu Minghuai, but at the moment they are at most making arrangements in the early stage.
In the original plot, it was the original owner Wen Su who married into the Lian family for three years before those things happened. But now Chu Minghuai has not completely won the trust of Young Master Lian.
So, everything is still in time.
In the evening, Qing Yu hurried over, and Su Li was eating with Lian Qi. She was holding a spare rib in her hand, gnawing on it slowly, and raised her eyebrows when she saw the herring approaching.
"She has come back?"
Herring nodded, "I just came back. I just met her. She looks normal. But... there is a beautiful hosta on her head."
"I see, you go down first." Su Li nodded and let her go.
Lian Qi was a little confused, "Who are you talking about?"
Su Li gnawed the ribs clean, picked up a handkerchief and wiped off the oil stains on her hands, and then said: "Herring found that Wei Qingwan was a little strange, so I asked her to keep an eye on it."
"Wei Qingwan..." Lian Qi thought for a while, his brows furrowed, "Is that the girl who wanted to cram into our yard before?"
"That's right. I didn't like that girl at first glance, so I was a little concerned. Lian Qi, since you are so good, go and check it out." Su Li smiled and looked at him expectantly.
Lian Qi just wanted to nod, but stopped, and said seriously: "I will help you check her, do I have to get paid?"
Su Li was very kind, "How many kisses?"
"Let's talk about it after your menstruation is over." Lian Qiyi pointed out.
