The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 231 Whose hand

Before Meng Renji said that it was related to his sudden hysteria, he didn't know the ins and outs of Mrs. Qiao's lawsuit against Xi Yanxie, so he had to ask first.

After learning that the case had indeed been closed and that Meng Shisan hadn't been in any trouble because of it, he signaled Wen Yuan to come forward.

Originally, Wen Fang followed him on weekdays, but because he had something to report and didn't leave the house, he just went to the backyard, so he asked Wen Fang to stay at Senwanyuan and took Wen Yuan with him.

Wen Yuan took a step forward and began to report: "Miss, my servant inquired that Kunzheng Pavilion did not have the gecko inkstone before. It was only about half a month ago that the shopkeeper Liu of Kunzheng Pavilion put it on the shelf. It’s the innermost corner that no one cares about.”

"Second Brother, didn't you say you broke it accidentally after touching it?" Meng Shisan asked, "Since it is placed in the innermost corner of the shelf, how could Second Brother accidentally touch it?"

The servant who followed Meng Renji to Kunzheng Pavilion at that time was Wen Fang, not Wen Yuan. This was also the question that had always lingered in his mind after the inquiry: "Sir, the slave in that corner went in specially to look at it. According to that placement, unless It's a male... Well, unless someone touches it intentionally, it's very unlikely that it will fall."

Baozhu opened her eyes wide and listened, and her intuition told her that the second young master suddenly became possessed by a demon, it must not be accidental!
Meng Shisan had the same idea as Baozhu: "Second brother, think about it carefully, what was the situation at that time? If you really can't think of the details, then let Baozhu call Wen Fang over, and I will ask him face to face."

"No need." Meng Renji thought hard, but it happened too suddenly. Afterwards, shopkeeper Liu quickly asked the store clerk to clean up. He thought it was just an accident and didn't think too much, so naturally he didn't He noticed too much, "At that time, I happened to send Wen Fang to Baolai Building diagonally opposite to buy snacks. After buying, he returned to Kunzheng Pavilion, only to find out that I had broken the inkstone."

Meng Shisan thought for a while: "Second brother said earlier that the inkstone was an antique, and it was sold in Kunzheng Pavilion for a long time, but it was not sold, but the result of Wen Yuan's inquiry, it was only half a month ago. It was put on the shelf by Shopkeeper Liu. It is an antique and has words that have not been sold for a long time. Who did the second brother listen to? "

"Shopkeeper Liu!" Meng Renji knew this, and at the same time he also remembered another thing, "By the way, I didn't notice the inkstone at first. It was shopkeeper Liu who pointed it at me and introduced it to me, saying that the inkstone was an antique and was for sale. It's been a long time, but because it can't be sold, the price is not expensive, so let me have a look."

"Then where was the inkstone placed at that time?" Meng Shisan asked.

Meng Renji shook his head: "I didn't notice, I can't remember."

"If you can't remember it, don't think about it." Meng Shisan said before that he was afraid that his brother would have sequelae. He was not joking, but he was serious. Now his brother's memory is missing, and what is missing is the point before the inkstone broke. It should be the sequelae after my brother recovered.

Since it is a posthumous evidence of crazy behavior, it is impossible for the missing point to be recalled no matter what the elder brother thinks.

From the current point of view, my brother suddenly suffered from hysteria, which is closely related to the Gecko Inkstone, and also to Shopkeeper Liu who strongly recommended the Gecko Inkstone to his brother.

She then asked Wen Yuan: "Can anyone find out the origin of the inkstone?"

Wen Yuan said: "My slave has been guarding Shopkeeper Liu outside the Kunzheng Pavilion store, but until I came back, I didn't see Shopkeeper Liu come into the store. The waiter in the store told my slave that Shopkeeper Liu is often not in the store. Where to go?" No one knows. As for the origin of the inkstone, the waiters said they didn’t know. Shopkeeper Liu suddenly took out the inkstone and put it on the shelf for sale. They only greeted the customers who came into the store and never asked about the origin. "

"Where is Shopkeeper Liu's home?" Meng Shisan asked. "Shopkeeper Liu is not from the capital. His parents, wife and children are all in his hometown, not in the capital." Wen Yuan was always considerate when doing things outside. He also thought of what Meng Shisan thought of, "Slave servants also went to shopkeeper Liu in Li Shengzhou." I searched the house in Lantern Hutong not far away but couldn't find anyone. I asked the neighbors and they all said they haven't seen Shopkeeper Liu for two or three days."

"Two or three days?" Meng Shisan said, "It seems that we have to find Shopkeeper Liu to know the origin of the inkstone."

Meng Renji asked: "Why must we find out the origin of the inkstone?"

Wen Yuan had finished reporting what he had inquired about. Meng Shisan asked him to step aside and Baozhu no longer had to wait on him. He and Jin Yin invited Wen Yuan to have some snacks.

Baozhu was indeed a little hungry. When she heard that she could eat Jinyin's freshly baked snacks, she jumped back with joy.

And Wen Yuan was overjoyed to hear that he could have snacks with Jin Yin.

There were only two brothers and sisters left in Mingxiaotang, and several pieces of the three plates of cakes had been eaten. The teapot contained fragrant slices brewed by Shang Chun himself, and the taste was just right.

Meng Shisan held the pot and filled Meng Renji's empty cup. Fang Xuxu explained to Meng Renji: "Only by finding out the origin of the inkstone can we know whose hand it came from. Second brother, don't forget, you no longer live in On Zhuangzi in the western suburbs outside the city, he lives in the Meng Mansion in the city. As the son of the Shangshu Mansion and the grandson of Meng Tianguan, the second assistant in the cabinet, the second brother is worth a lot of money. If someone is dissatisfied with the Meng Mansion, or is dissatisfied with the Meng Mansion, If any of the masters in the Meng family are dissatisfied, then targeting a descendant of the Meng family and infecting them with hysteria will not only make people criticize and speculate about the Meng family, but also destroy a descendant of the Meng family."

Meng Renji could understand the eldest sister's words, but when it came to him, he didn't understand: "Was all this trouble just to destroy me, who is already useless?"

"Outsiders say behind our backs that we can't hear it, so we can't care about it. But if they dare to say that to their face, we dare to go up and give that person two slaps in the face." Meng Shisan bit into the crispy sesame pancake. It was so delicious that she narrowed her eyes slightly, "So Yaoyao cannot agree with the second brother saying this about herself."

"That's because you and I are brothers and sisters, so protect me." Meng Renji's eyes softened unconsciously when he saw his elder sister eating cakes, eating like a cozy little squirrel. If you're choking, don't eat too much. You've been tired for the whole day, so don't eat until you accumulate food, which will make it difficult to sleep later."

"I know." No matter how delicious the cake is, Meng Shisan still has a sense of proportion in his heart, "Second brother, if I arrange a place for him to go, and it is to a far away place, will he be willing?"

She had wanted to ask this question for a long time, but she had never found a good place to go. After Qiao Sang's death, she suddenly realized that she might be able to do that. If it happened, her brother's future would be secure.

"Where are you going?" Meng Renji paused as he picked up the tea cup.

"It hasn't been decided yet, let's keep it a secret for now. Second brother, tell me, are you willing?" Meng Shisan said, "If you are willing, then second brother will have to endure some hardships in the future."
