2247 The people around caretaker li
Gu Xin took a long look at que ‘er and realized that que’ er did not seem to be afraid of Lady Feng san’s corpse at all. She stood up straight, unlike Ying ‘er who subconsciously moved away from the bed and her legs were trembling slightly.
Gu Xin could understand the young lady’s fear when facing a dead person. She did not know if que ‘er’s fear was due to the huge contract or something else. In any case, compared to miss Feng san’s corpse, que’ er seemed to be more afraid of the living second Madam Feng.
When she was being questioned in second Madam Feng’s room just now, que ‘er had a very scared look.
“Do you know that miss Feng san’s cause of death was poisoning? moreover, she ate a poisonous pastry!” After a moment of silence, Gu Xin suddenly said.
Ying ‘er looked up at Gu Xin in horror. Que’ er also looked up with a confused expression.
“Princess, no, no, this servant doesn’t know.” Ying ‘er quickly waved her hands when she regained her senses.
“What Do you not know?” Gu Xin asked with a frown.
“Third young lady only eats the cakes and pastries made by this servant. But, but, but this servant didn’t poison her. This servant doesn’t know, this servant really didn’t poison her!” Ying ‘er immediately knelt down and cried.
Her face was full of panic, and she was no longer afraid of the body on the bed.
“I didn’t say you knew, nor did I say you poisoned it. Are you confessing?” Gu Xin looked down at her and said coldly.
no, no, it’s not like that, Zhenzhen. Ying ‘er shook her head vigorously.
“Princess.” Que ‘er also knelt down beside Ying’ er. I’ve eaten the pastries that Ying ‘er made. When this servant sent it back to sixth miss yesterday, sixth miss didn’t want it anymore, so she let this servant eat it with Ying ‘er. This servant and Ying ‘er have already eaten it. ”
“But que ‘er, you were the one who brought the pastries from sixth young lady. You’re the only one who encountered it in the entire process, right?” Gu Xin asked que ‘er.
“Yes,” Que ‘er was stunned for a moment before she replied. However, she did not refute on her behalf.
“But it’s just a plate of pastries. We don’t know which piece third miss wants to eat!” Ying ‘er said anxiously.
“That’s why I’m asking you how much you made yesterday. How many people will be able to get your desserts?” Gu Xin continued to ask.
“This servant only made some in the morning and afternoon. They were all placed in sixth young lady’s room.” Ying ‘er said.
“Do you still have it now?” Gu Xin asked again.
“This servant makes it every day, but because of the incident this morning, this servant hasn’t made it yet. They eat however much they cook.” Ying ‘er replied.
“Then, after you guys finished cooking in the kitchen, did you share it with the others?” Gu Xin asked again.
N-No, I don’t think so, Yingluo. Ying ‘er looked at que’ er with uncertainty.
“There is.” Que ‘er answered without hesitation, ” last night, sixth miss gave the remaining desserts to this servant and Ying’ er, but this servant did not finish them all. On the way to the kitchen, I met Xiao Shunzi and he said that he was hungry. This servant thought that there were still some left, so I gave the remaining two pieces of pastry wrapped in a handkerchief to Xiao Shunzi.”
“Who’s Xiao Shunzi?” Gu Xin asked.
“Xiao Shunzi is Butler Li’s errand boy.” Madam Yun interjected.
“Butler li?” Gu Xin’s brows furrowed even more as she looked at Ying ‘er, ” is what she said true? ”
this Lao Ai … Ying ‘er looked at que’ er awkwardly and said, ” this servant went to the kitchen with que ‘er. When we were about to reach the kitchen, this servant’s stomach suddenly ached and I went to the outhouse, so this servant doesn’t know.
After saying that, Ying ‘er lowered her head guiltily. Why did it hurt at that time?
