Chapter 582

About half an hour later, Bai Ling left through the side door of Lanzihao again wearing a gauze hat.

Standing on a high place, Feng Qi watched Bo Ling leading the people trot all the way, disappearing into the winding deep alley at night——Since entering the Lanzi Shop, Bo Ling has hardly stopped.

However, Lan Zhijun didn't stop him and let him do what he did. Feng Qi wanted to see that he was innocent, but he didn't expect Lan Zhijun to take all the matters related to Bailing to his side.

After a cup of tea, a maid nearby walked towards Feng Qi.

"Aunt Fengqi, the matter has been clarified."

Feng Qi glanced at her, "So fast?"

"Yes, this matter was widely circulated in Hua Lane in the afternoon, and we found out the whole story after a little inquiry."

Feng Qi snorted, "...so why didn't that Li Mian come today?"

"Both their husband and wife were arrested by the Yamen today. They were said to be suspected of stealing, so they were detained for trial first."

"Stealing?" Feng Qi frowned, "Li Mian seems to be quite responsible, is her man committing crimes outside?"

"It's not clear exactly how. Anyway, this morning, Li Mian and her husband took a jade bracelet to Xu Ji's pawnshop in Baihua Yadong to pawn it. Shopkeeper Xu said that the bracelet was at least 500 taels of silver at first glance, but Li Mian Mian said that her man only asked for 20 taels of silver, so shopkeeper Xu became suspicious and asked him where the things came from."

"Her man couldn't explain why, he only said that it was his wife's dowry. Shopkeeper Xu decided to plan, saying that the jewelry looked good, and asked him if he had anything else. Xu Ji's pawnshop could take it together. Her man Sure enough, I went home and brought another batch of jewelry.

"After that, shopkeeper Xu saw the logo of the inner palace on one of the pearl hairpins, and guessed where the family got the stolen goods, so he went to him to sell the stolen goods, and immediately reported to the official. Later, the yamen When people came, they took their family away.”

Feng Qi sneered, "So now Li Mian is also in prison?"

"Yes," the maid nodded and said, "After all, things are related to the palace, and the yamen dare not neglect."

"Understood." Feng Qi nodded, "Go down."

The maid didn't leave immediately, she raised her head and looked at Feng Qi, "Then, are you going to talk to Miss Bai Ling about this later?"

"No need," Feng Qi glanced at Hua Nong in the distance again, and said with a smile, "Didn't she have to go and see for herself, let her find out by herself, don't worry about it."

"clear."

……

This night, when Bo Ling came back, Ai Songqing had been waiting in the house for a long time.

As soon as she heard the sound of footsteps, she greeted her outside the house—it was indeed Bai Ling, and she still held a sleeping Nian Nian in her arms.

Ai Songqing's eyes widened immediately, "You...why did you bring Sister Li's child here!"

Bo Ling freed up one hand and made a "shh" gesture to Ai Songqing, Ai Songqing quickly fell silent, and the two carried the child to the back room to sleep together.

Because of the hot weather, Bo Ling only covered Nian Nian's stomach with the quilt, and then the two left the room.

The two sat down in the living room, and it was only then that Bai Ling told Ai Songqing what she had heard from Baoyuan's neighbors tonight.

"This is too bad." Ai Songqing frowned, "That man doesn't even know the value of the jewelry in Sister Li's box, he must have secretly pawned it behind Sister Li's back... What should I do now? ? Are you still going to the Yamen to catch people tomorrow?"

"No need..." Bo Ling shook his head, "I don't think there should be any major problems."

Bai Ling sighed, she was really tired at the moment, looking at the cup and kettle on the table, Bai Ling stood up and poured water for herself.

She continued, "Sister Li's background should be found in the yamen, and the origin of those jewelry can be explained clearly. It's just that the yamen is busy during this time, and I don't know how long the two of them will be locked up in prison...so I Take Nian Nian back first."

"Is Nian Nian at home alone?" Ai Songqing was a little puzzled, "Is there no one to take care of you?"

"Yeah." Bo Ling nodded, "I asked a few nearby households, but they didn't want to take care of them. I think Sister Li's rice tank is also empty. At most, I can make up for tomorrow's ration."

"Why is it still empty?" Ai Songqing was stunned for a moment, "What about the rice and noodles you sent earlier, didn't you say that Fengqi asked someone to carry several bags over there, so you can't just eat them within half a month Is it over?"

Mentioning this, Bo Ling turned pale with anger.

She gritted her teeth and said coldly, "Bao... Li Mian divided up those things."

"Divided?" Ai Songqing frowned, really confused, "Isn't there only three people in her family now, who can I share it with?"

"Just a few residents near her."

Bo Ling's hand carrying the pot fell heavily, and the pot hit the table, making a crashing sound.

"She probably thinks that if she distributes the things from these flower kilns to others, they won't chew on her tongue. Anyway, she has hands and feet, so she can earn back food and clothing for Nian Nian."

"..."

Ai Songqing didn't know what to say for a moment.

Bai Ling took a deep breath, she only felt that her mind was buzzing, and many emotions were mixed together, which made it difficult for her to think.

Bo Ling held his forehead with both hands, "Anyway, let this child sleep in my room for a few days."

Ai Songqing looked at Bai Ling in front of him and sighed.

She could understand a bit of Berlin's irritability and anxiety at the moment, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Ai Songqing glanced at the teapot, the water in it was almost bottomed out, she stood up holding the pot, and went out to call the maid outside to come in for more water.

Then, Ai Songqing sat back beside Bo Ling again, "Then have you been to the Huzi shop this morning?"

"Yeah." Bo Ling nodded.

"Have you heard any useful news?"

Bo Ling nodded again, "...I met the owner of the Huzi shop today."

"How?" Ai Songqing asked with some concern, "Is what Sister Li said yesterday true? They really accept three or four-year-old girls?"

"Yes, they accept it," Bo Ling's expression returned to the coldness of the day, "...and there is one thing, Li Mian made a mistake."

Ai Songqing listened intently.

"It's not that the child is sent in, and I will raise it safely until you are seven or eight years old." Bo Ling said expressionlessly, "There is a business in the Huzi shop that is exclusively for the elderly... Regardless of age, how old are people can be arranged.”

"what business?"

Bai Ling's expression became a bit complicated.

Every time I think of this, the familiar nausea comes up again.

"They will stun the girls and keep them in the house for one night." Bo Ling said as concisely as possible, "...whatever the guests do in it."

Ai Songqing's hands froze there, shivering unconsciously.
