Zhang Xiuhua saw Su Jizhi and Wanyan again after a few hours, and was stunned for a moment.

"Master Su..."

Wan Yan took advantage of the opportunity to look into the mansion, the courtyard was tidy and tidy, with gray brick walls and tiles, it was not considered rich and expensive, and the mansion also showed a touch of luxury.

The servant girl was timid and cowardly: "Madam, they said they are from the yamen, so I will bring them in." After speaking, she lowered her head.

Zhang Xiuhua waved his hand, "You go to serve tea, of course Master Su and Miss are the guests here." Turning around, he asked Su Jizhi: "Master Su, is there any clue to the case?"

The maid turned around, Wan Yan and Su Jizhi looked at each other, and followed the little girl: "I want to go to the toilet, can you lead the way?"

The two walked up the corridor, Wan Yan turned her head and saw that Zhang Xiuhua had welcomed the lord into the main room, she smiled, and stopped in her tracks: "This is such a mess, I suddenly don't want to go anymore."

The maidservant was eleven or twelve years old, and she didn't know what to do: "Then..."

"It's okay. My lord wants to talk about something. It's okay if I'm not around. Aren't you going to serve tea? Let's go together and go back together."

Wan Yan has a pretty face and a gentle smile. The maid looks at her intentionally or unintentionally, her eyes are full of envy.

Wan Yan was very familiar with this kind of gaze, she took the opportunity to grab the servant girl's arm, "Let's go, I see Mrs. Zhang is very strict with you, so hurry up so you don't get scolded."

These words reached the heart of the little maid, and her dissatisfaction and fear of Zhang Xiuhua exploded instantly.

"Did the girl see it too?"

"That's right, when Mrs. Zhang was talking to you, you were holding your fingers and lowering your head. It looked like you were scared. How long have you been here?"

"It's only been a few months. Oh, I want to leave, but now there is no one in the mansion. Madam said, I will leave now, and I won't pay the previous wages."

"I see that Madam is well-dressed, and you will be paid a lot, right?"

"How can there be? It was fine when Mr. Zhang had no accident before, but Mr. Zhang had an accident and Miss disappeared again. After that, Madam lost her temper every day."

"Master Zhang is very rich. I know he runs a porcelain workshop. He treats his wife so well. Why don't they get married?"

The little maid lowered her voice and looked around, "Yes, I am also strange, but Madam and Master are quite strange, they don't live together."

what?
Wan Yan raised her eyes, "Just live here, each with its own room?"

"I discovered this by accident. Once my wife had a stomachache during menstruation, and I was the first to enter the inner room. In the past, my wife and Mr. Zhang didn't need to take care of me in daily life."

Wan Yan's back felt cold, and she was very close to the little maid, even though there was no one else here except them, the two of them kept their voices down as much as possible because it was a secret.

The little maid seriously recalled, "I entered the inner room only to find that it was connected to the outer room. It looked like one room from the outside, but actually there were two separate rooms inside. The master lived in the outer room, and the lady lived in the inner room."

What is this operation?
Wan Yan doesn't understand, nor does she understand.

There are more important things to inquire about, Wan Yan tentatively asked: "Where is your lady? How did she disappear?"

The servant girl shook her head, "I don't know. When I woke up that morning, Madam suddenly said that Miss was gone, but I saw Miss the first day and she was fine."

"when did it happen?"

"Four months ago, on the day Master Zhang had an accident, Miss disappeared in the morning, and then I heard that Master Zhang had an accident before noon."

Wan Yan looked deeply into the distance.

the same day?
Yes, why is Zhang Xiuhua more sad about Zhang Kairong's accident than her own daughter's disappearance?
"How is Miss's usual temperament?"

"It's not bad, actually, I came to the mansion because of the young lady. Usually, the young lady likes to go out to play, and there is no maid around who looks bad."

Wan Yan understood that her father also thought about buying a maid to serve her by her side.

Maybe the heart of the elders is like this, no matter what kind of life they live, they want the best for their children.

"So, you haven't lived with your young lady for long?"

"Well, it's only a few dozen days."

"Where is the lady? How about the lady?"

"Beloved in the palm of my hand, the food and clothing in the house are close to the young lady, and they are all the best."

Wan Yan didn't understand. In this case, why didn't Zhang Xiuhua care about Miss Miss?
My lord's analysis is correct, Zhang Xiuhua ran to the government office last night, and didn't mention a word about the child's disappearance, which is not normal.

"I heard that Mrs. Zhang is from Heli."

The little maid was mysterious, "It's true. I overheard the young lady talking to the madam once. I really can't believe that I can live so well with the madam who has left the queen."

"What did they say?"

"Let's think about it. I can't remember the specifics. At that time, I was afraid that Madam would be angry, so I hurriedly withdrew. It seemed that the young lady said something bad about my father. Fortunately, she was the one who followed Madam to Lingjiang Mansion."

The little maid racked her brains, and was still nervous about hearing this gossip, "By the way, there is one more thing, but this matter is neither good nor bad, and now it's a good thing. I heard only a few words, and it's hard to say that they say what."

Wan Yan understood.

"Besides, when she saw me go in to deliver tea, Madam gave Miss a look, and Miss stopped talking when she saw me."

The two chatted for a long time, and the servant girl remembered something important and slapped her forehead, "Oh, I forgot to bring tea to Madam."

The maid was flustered and flustered for a while, Wan Yan held her arm, "Don't worry, you can just say that I was delayed in the toilet for a long time?"

Seeing this, the little maid felt relieved, walked into the kitchen with Wan Yan, made tea and poured water, and placed teapots and cups on the tray in no time.

"By the way, I still want to ask you, Mr. Zhang lives here on weekdays, does he still often live at the Porcelain Workshop?"

The little maid tilted her head, "It seems that I don't really go there, but every day, Master Zhang goes out in the morning and comes back very late. I take care of the young lady every day, and the master's side is taken care of by the wife."

"Master Zhang keeps a lot of pigeons, do you know that?"

"I know, the lady often goes to play, and I even fed it."

"How is the relationship between Master Zhang and Miss?"

"Very well, it's almost the same as Madam. Sometimes Miss and Madam are angry, and they go to Master Zhang to act like a spoiled child."

Wan Yan really couldn't understand this relationship, but two thoughts flashed in Wan Yan's mind.

"How does Miss usually call Master Zhang?"

"master!"

Wan Yan wondered if there was any special relationship between Miss and Zhang Kairong?
In that case, would her disappearance be related to Zhang Xiuhua?
Thinking about it again, the idea of ​​a mother-daughter relationship dispute is a bit outrageous.

"Does your young lady look like Mr. Zhang?"

Wan Yan still has another idea, whether Mr. Zhang is the daughter's biological father, but if this is the case, Zhang Xiuhua and Zhang Kairong should get married even more.

Sure enough, the servant girl shook her head, "It's not like, Mr. Zhang has a dark complexion, tall stature, and big eyes. The lady often said that her eyes are not good-looking, and she has single eyelids. Because the lady talks about it every day, I am too impressed."

A gust of wind blows, the fragrance of tea overflows, it would be shameful to delay the time, Wan Yan pulls up the little maid, "Let's go, I've been here for a while, let's hurry to the front yard..."
