Chapter 343: Strange (2)
Butler Gu felt that something was wrong, "Miss, you can sue the officials, but you..."

Qing Shu waved his hand and cut off his words, "Just do it like this. The people from the Wu Mansion haven't left yet? It's just right, let the yamen arrest them and let the yamen interrogate them. And our people will do their best to track down the affairs of the Wu Mansion Son."

After the butler Gu took the order to do the work, Qing Shu sat quietly alone, trying to think about all the possibilities.Wu Fuming knew that she was keeping a filial piety, why did she do this?Furthermore, the people sent by Wu's family came yesterday, why didn't they leave that day, but stayed in Dagujia Village?The carriages of wealthy people appear in the village, so eye-catching, why don't they stay there?Aren't you afraid of being discovered by her?Aren't you afraid of her methods?

She believed in Xiaozhi County, and these two things were mentioned in Xiao Zhixian's letter.One is that the Wu family sent a matchmaker to Gu Hoe's house in Dagujia Village.The second is that the Wu Mansion wrote letters to the Ye Mansion and Song Mansion in the capital, as well as the mansion of the wolf-hearted Gu Yunfu.There is only one purpose, to ask any of these people to nod and promise her to the Wu Mansion.

Gu Hoe knew that she was keeping a filial piety, but the people in the capital didn't know.There was no funeral report from Gu Yunfu, no funeral report from Ye Mansion, and no funeral report from Song Mansion, which she didn't know about before.Could it be that Wu Yeshi wanted to take advantage of this loophole?

"Miss, miss, miss..." Xiao Yu called out five or six times.

Qing Shu, who was too absorbed in her thoughts, came back to her senses, "What's the matter?"

Xiaoyu reported, "Miss, several beggars came to beg for food outside the back door. The kitchen gave some leftovers, but they didn't want it. They just said they wanted to meet the boss and kept beating on the door. The gatekeeper wanted to go out and beat them away. But Miss once told the servants in the mansion not to beat beggars. Now the housekeeper is out to handle errands, and Steward Ding is not around, so the doorkeeper has to come to ask Miss for instructions."

Qing Shu immediately stood up and walked out. When she walked out the door, she stopped immediately and thought for a while, "Let the young master come here, let the young master come alone."

Xiaoyu quickly invited Qingyang over.

Qingshu stuffed a prepared oil paper bag into Qingyang's hand, and ordered in a low voice, "A few beggars came from the back door, sister prepared some pastries, you help sister to share with them. Remember, don't think they are dirty, you Put the pastry in their hands with your own hands."

Qingyang didn't even ask why, and agreed, "Okay, Xiaoyang will go now."

"Wait a minute." Qing Shu opened the oiled paper bag he held in both hands, squeezed out a palm-sized pastry from the inside, and turned it over to show Qing Yang the other side, "Remember, when you put it in their hands, this side face up, the side with this mark on it."

Qingyang stared at the mark that Qingshu was pointing to, a pattern drawn inside a circle that looked like a word but didn't look like a word.There was no pattern on the pastry, but it was cut out on the pastry with a sharp object.He nodded and said he remembered.

Qing Shu put the pastry back into the oiled paper bag and fixed the oiled paper bag, "You give them pastries, and they will talk to you. No matter what they say, you can just listen to it, you don't need to respond, but remember what they said, Come back and tell my sister. You can only tell your sister, not others, not even Brother Yan."

Qingyang made it clear.

Only then did Qingshu lead Qingyang out, and said to Xiaojuan, "Take the young master there."

Xiaojuan responded, took Qingyang out of the inner courtyard, and soon appeared at the back door.Afraid of accidents, the gatekeeper also called two other servants.When these three people saw Qingyang, they hurriedly saluted Qingyang and greeted him.

Xiaojuan asked the servant how many beggars there were outside, and the servant replied that there were four.Xiaojuan then said to open the door.

When the back door was opened, four disheveled beggars rushed to say begging words, such as good people, such rich and noble people, begging for alms.

The three servants refused to let the beggars approach Qingyang, and stared at the beggars covetously.

Xiaojuan casually pointed at the thin one, "You, come in."

The servants thought they heard it wrong, "Miss Xiaojuan!"

Xiaojuan waved her hand, "No problem, let him in."

The servants looked at Qingyang and saw that Qingyang nodded, so they let Xiaojuan's beggar go in.

Xiaojuan protected Qingyang by her side, led the beggar inside a little and then stopped, then she nodded to Qingyang.

At this time, Qingyang opened the oiled paper bag in his hand, took out a piece of pastry, turned the marked side up, then stood in front of the beggar, and put it into the beggar's dark palm.

The beggar bent down and held the pastry in both hands, glanced at the mark on the pastry, shouted "Boss" excitedly, and knelt down to kowtow to Qingyang.

Qingyang didn't know why, but according to Qingshu's instructions, he didn't speak.

The beggar stood up after kowtowing, and said in a low voice, "There are more than a dozen new faces in the town, and they all have knives hidden on their bodies. Thank you boss for giving me alms." After speaking, he bit the pastry in his hand and ran out .

Xiaojuan asked the servant to let in the second beggar, then the third, and then the fourth.The fourth beggar hunched over and seemed to be quite old.After Qingyang gave him a marked pastry, there were still several pieces left in the oiled paper bag.Without even thinking about it, he even sent out the oiled paper package.

Afterwards, Qingyang went back to give Qingshu his life back.

Qing Shu pulled him into the room, "What did they say?"

Qingyang relayed the words of those four people, "The first person said, 'there are more than a dozen new faces in the town, all with knives hidden on their bodies'. The second person said, 'Yesterday two people hid in the forest outside the town. There are strange carriages, one is parked at the same place today, and the other is parked at the entrance of the town.’ The third said, ‘There are traps on the way to Zhuangzi.’ The fourth said, ‘Don’t go out.’”

Qing Shu grabbed his hand, "Are you afraid?"

Qingyang looked up at her, "Don't be afraid, they listen to my sister."

Qing Shu was stunned for a few seconds, then pinched his nose and asked with a smile, "Where did you see that?"

Qingyang grinned, "They listen to my sister, and my sister is willing to let them approach Xiaoyang."

Qing Shu smiled, "Hehe... you're smart. Go! Xiaorong should look for you later."

When Qingyang was about to leave, he remembered something and asked Qingshu, "I almost forgot, the first thing they said was 'boss', sister, what is 'boss'?"

Qingshu leaned over and whispered in his ear, "They are calling you young master." Then she held Qingyang's face in her hands, and seeing Qingyang's surprised expression, she blinked at him, "We Another little secret."

After Qingyang left, Qingshu started to pace again, something was not right, she hated this uneasy feeling. "Little fish, go ahead and call Guard Du and Guard Luo over."

Du Zhongxia and Luo San arrived one after the other.

Qing Shu looked at them, "Did you notice anything unusual?"

Du Zhongxia spoke first, "There are two unfamiliar men wandering outside the mansion. If the guess is correct, they are watching."
