Chapter 103 Locking the Heavy Door

Qin Yanzhao answered at this time, and said with a smile to Zhong Jingren: "Sixth younger sister has only studied for a few days, but second younger sister is crazy about painting. She has been studying for a long time. Uncle, please don't be too harsh." Turning to Qin Su again, she smiled warmly, and said with relief: "Sixth sister, don't worry, learning painting is like practicing calligraphy, you have to practice a lot, and after years and months, you will be able to do it yourself."

These words were very generous and gentle, Mrs. Zhong nodded with satisfaction first, Mrs. Tai also showed her approval, and said gratifiedly: "Erlang said well."

Qin Su wanted to sit back a long time ago, so she lowered her head and said, "Thank you Uncle Zhong for your guidance, and thank you for your second brother's guidance."

Zhong Jingren waved his hand, handed the scroll to the two maids for safekeeping, and then returned to the original place and sat down.Everyone also returned to their seats, and the turmoil of viewing the painting disappeared without a trace.

No one noticed, Qin Yanwan looked at Qin Su with a look of inquiry quickly.

Zhong Jingren's appearance just now confirmed some guesses in her heart for a long time, but these guesses still need time to be confirmed.

At this time, Mrs. Gao looked at Shilou, and said to Mrs. Tai: "Although relatives are busy, it's not too late to miss Jungu's lunch break. It's almost time, so Jungu went to take a rest How are you?"

Mrs. Tai has always had the habit of taking a lunch break, but today she was afraid that everyone would catch the cold on the road, so she specially chose the afternoon for everyone to come over. At this moment, she is indeed a little sleepy, and she doesn't look as energetic as before.

Zhong Shi also persuaded softly: "Aunt Tai Jun is good to rest, don't get tired." Lin Shi and Zhong Jingren on the side also persuaded a few words.

Seeing that everyone is like this, Mrs. Tai didn't insist anymore, she smiled and said: "I'm really tired, I can't be filial to you, so let's go." She also specially told Zhong: "It's good to arrange for your elder brother , if there is anything lacking, just come back and forth with me."

Mrs. Zhong agreed, and all the people got up and sent Mrs. Tai back to the house to rest, and then everyone dispersed.

After leaving the Dehui Hall, Zhong Jingren greeted everyone in the East Courtyard, and then returned to Xihuaju with the Zhong family.

His residence is in the guest courtyard outside the main courtyard, but because he has to pay the accounts, he spends the daytime in Xihuaju and Zhong's during the daytime to sort out the accounts, but he is not free.

The two brothers and sisters stepped into the courtyard gate of Xihua Residence, and when they walked up the bamboo bridge, Zhong Jingren looked at the west chamber, but saw that the curtains in the west chamber were drooping, the door was closed tightly, and even a window was not opened. There were two stout servants guarding the door.

Seeing this, he frowned, and after returning to the west room of the main room, taking advantage of no one around, he slowed down his voice and said to Zhong: "It will be the end of the year soon, you always Locking up Sanniang is not an option either."

Whether Qin Yanli is sick or not is up to Zhong's decision.Now Mrs. Zhong insists that she is seriously ill, and she is not allowed to leave the house. Everyone in the mansion doesn't say anything, and there is little doubt in their hearts.Zhong Jingren was afraid that his sister would go too far and cause people to gossip.

When Zhong heard this, her expression turned cold immediately, and she said in a deep voice, "This is because I am merciful, and I don't want to harm her if I lock her up. If she meets those vicious mistresses, how can she survive?" She said more and more The colder the voice, the more intense hatred flashed in the eyes.

Regarding Zuo Siniang's matter, after careful investigation, she didn't find Qin Yanli's mistakes.

Apart from getting closer to Zuo Siniang and talking more, there is no deeper connection between Qin Yanli and Zuo Siniang.

In other words, all the people and things that can prove the connection between the two are either dead or lost, without a trace.

She had already found out that before the big search in the West Courtyard that day, someone had seen a maidservant in white clothes and black skirt rushing out of the study at the West Window, and hastily returned to the Xiling Mountain House.

Zhong didn't believe it was a coincidence.

But the strange thing is that after the incident, she sent someone to the Xiling Shanfang to identify the person, but she didn't find the little servant girl, and she searched the West Courtyard, but she couldn't find the little girl either.Those who had seen her all said that the little servant girl was very unremarkable, and after a while, she didn't quite remember her appearance.

This is simply to make people angry and hate, and feel a blockage in the chest.

There is also the boy named Ah Zhi, who confessed before he died that the reason why he met Liu Nian, Zuo Siniang's maid, was because when he was studying in the Xiao family, one day he was invited by Qin Yanli to help , sent a letter to Qin Yanbai, but ran into Fleeting Years on the way.

Because Liu Nian looks exactly like her deceased sister, Ah Zhi was attached to her, and got very close to her, and was bewitched by her words. are gone.

Zhong ordered someone to kill Ah Zhi, and followed his advice to investigate Qin Yanli, but in the end they were all in vain.

This concubine's third daughter is just like her biological brother, she is always slippery, and no one can catch the slightest mistake.Even the intention to fall into the water last time, there was no clue afterward, and in the end, the gatekeepers of Xihuaju had to be replaced.

Every time he thought of these things, Zhong felt an indescribable resentment.

Qin Shifang stretched out her hands so long and deployed so many hands, but she didn't know anything about it. If it wasn't for Qin Su's inexplicable appearance and mistakenly making troubles about Qin Yanzhao, she would never have thought that her West Courtyard It was so vulnerable.

However, this will not be the case in the future.

The last time she was careless, she only cared about checking the residences of the two brothers and sisters, but ignored her own yard.Now she has checked Xihuaju from top to bottom to prevent such incidents from happening.

"Even if this is the case, you should be more careful, and don't let rumors spread." Seeing Zhong's face was gloomy, Zhong Jingren could only comfort him, and then sighed again.

Mrs. Zhong forced a smile, nodded and said: "I can save it, elder brother should also know, I have my own measure." Then she lowered her eyes again, and said coldly: "So I brought Mrs. Cai out today, I just want to let them know that the lives of his family of three are in my hands, don't think that if I can't grasp the handle, I can't cure them!"

After hearing this, Zhong Jingren knew that it would be useless to say more, so he shook his head and stopped persuading him.

Zhong stood there frowning for a while, Fang gradually turned his expression, and said to Zhong Jingren: "Forget it, why bother to talk about these trivial matters. Let's talk about other things. I didn't have time to ask in detail before, and Wu who is in charge of the kiln The craftsman has been working for seven or eight years, and he has always been close to our family, why did the eldest brother change him?"

As soon as he heard the word "Carpenter Wu", Zhong Jingren's complexion turned a little ugly.

He flicked his sleeves, as if he wanted to brush off the invisible dust, and said in a deep voice: "Master Wu has been doing this for too long, and he has had other thoughts for a long time. I found out that he actually Secretly deducting the monthly salary of the subordinates, and secretly hiding the best porcelain products to sell privately. Even if I can bear it, the Qin family will definitely not keep people like this."

His tone of voice was extremely heavy, and his expression became as cold as ice.
