Just when Jing Mo was secretly excited, the little maid had already walked in front of the shoemaker's stall, and Jing Mo turned to face her.

The little maid held a letter in her hand, wearing an eggplant purple round-necked narrow-sleeved dress, a light green long skirt and a large scarf around her waist, and she was neatly dressed, her pink face was a little pleasing and had been thinly powdered, she glanced at Jingmo when she walked in front of Jingmo, and then went out from the alley.

Jing Mo followed the girl all the way out of the alley, and when she saw her going west, as if she was going to the teahouse on the side of Sanmao Palace, Jing Mo took two steps, walked behind her, and began to greet her.

Jing Mo asked in a gentle voice as best he could, "Little sister, do you want to send a quick letter?" ”

The girl turned her head, stood and looked at Jingmo, then smiled slightly, she replied in a local accent: "It's to send a letter, to Suzhou, big brother, who are you?" ”

Jing Mo was even more happy, thinking that this child was really smart and cute, so it seemed that her plan was very sure, and Jing Mo saw that the letter in her hand was written with the words "Suzhou Weaving Bureau Wei Moumou", and the name below was "Chen Si'an".

Jingmo agreed: "Little sister, I asked you about someone, there is a Chunlan who is about the same age as you, I don't know where the helper is, do you know him?" ”

Without hesitation, she asked Jing Modao, "Chunlan? Isn't that Xujiahui Mei Chunlan? ...... It's her? ”

Jing Mo was a little surprised, and hurriedly responded: "Exactly, exactly, do you know where she works?" ”

"She's working in the second Shang family next door to us. But she's gone, big brother, why are you looking for her? ”

Jing Mo didn't take precautions when he asked him, but although Liu Qing was articulate, he was still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child after all, and Jing Mo was confident that he could always cope with the past.

Jing Mo then made up nonsense: "She used to work in my house for three months, one day I bumped into her on the road, she said that she was a domestic helper in a certain family in Hualugang, but I forgot which one, and now I want to find her, I want to ask her if she is willing to work in my house again." ”

Liu Qing was naïve and simple, so he definitely didn't doubt Jingmo's lies. The little girl suddenly stretched out the tip of the little finger of her right hand and bit it on her teeth, blinking her eyes with a lovely woman's expression.

"This is too unfortunate, the Shang family died the evening before yesterday, and Chunlan left yesterday morning...... I'm afraid it's hard to find. ”

Jing Mo's heart was chuckled, and he couldn't help but interject: "Left yesterday morning?" Could you be mistaken? ”

Liu Qing shook her head and said: "There will be no mistake, yesterday morning she followed the third lady of her family to help the coffin out, and then the masters came back, it happened that I also saw it with my own eyes, but I didn't see Chunlan, to yesterday's lunch, there was an old Jiangbei mother in the Huai'an restaurant, I knew that Chunlan was not coming back, she was very good-looking, I often called her 'Jinling Yizhi Mei Chunlan', she and I am very good, really like my own sister, and now I also miss her." ”

Su Jingmo felt that this was a great gain, and he actually got this important information by accident, so he couldn't help but want to come up with a lot of news, because according to Shang Yuanji, her aunt Lai Shi told him yesterday that Chunlan left three days ago, and now she knows that it is a lie, but this lie has inadvertently confirmed it to herself. But why did Lai suddenly quit Chunlan? Why did you lie and deceive Shang Yuanji? Hasn't her conspiracy been uncovered step by step?

Jing Mo felt that this little maid must have some important information in the case, so of course this conversation could not be stopped here. However, according to her age, although talking to her will not arouse the suspicion of others, in this place near Shang's house, standing and talking for too long, maybe something will happen.

So Jing Mo said with a smile: "Little sister, aren't you going to the Sanmao Palace Teahouse?" I can accompany you before you go. You're so nice, what's your name? “

The girl slowly walked forward, and replied with a smile: "My name is Liu Qing, big brother, what's your surname?" ”

Looking at this innocent face, Jing Mo felt that he couldn't deceive her anymore, and in fact, there was no need to deceive her anymore.

"My surname is Su, and I am Su from Suzhou, but you said that Chunlan sent her out for funeral yesterday morning and didn't come back after that, did you see her send her out of mourning with your own eyes?

"Yes! At that time, I just came out to take out the garbage, and I happened to see the coffin of Shang's family carrying out the door, and I saw Chunlan go with the coffin. ”

"Oh, do you remember how many people went to the funeral together besides Chunlan at that time?"

Liu Qing's mouth pursed, shook his head and replied, "It's cold and lonely, and there is not even a monk or Taoist." ”

Jing Mo had a plan at this time, and decided to gently retort at the girl, so he said: "I don't think Chunlan is the only one who goes out to the funeral, you probably haven't seen it clearly." ”

Liu Qing really argued vigorously: "Brother Su, I can see it clearly, there are really few people, except for the four people who carry the coffin, there is only the third lady of the Shang family, and a person who is dressed like you, big brother."

"What? Do you wear a troll, like me? ”

Liu Qing turned his face and glanced at Jing Mo, then nodded, but did not answer.

Jing Mo said again: "Could it be that the eldest young master of his family? ”

Liu Qing shook his head and said, "No, how can I not know the eldest young master?" He never wore a tartar.

"So, is this man in trolls you don't know?

At this time, a smile suddenly appeared on Liu Qing's face. "I've seen him a few times. With a white face, thick black eyebrows, and a tall and straight nose, he is indeed beautiful. The smile on her lips did not disappear as she spoke, but deepened.

Jing Mo hurriedly asked, "Why do you think it's funny?"

Liu Qing raised his head again, looked at Jing Mo with smiling eyes, and said, "This person once made a joke. Ha ha...... Alas, I won't say it! Then he laughed again, then covered his lips with the back of his hand, lowered his head and hurriedly hid his smile!

Jing Mo couldn't help but be angry in his heart, thinking that this girl should not be born by Nie Xiaoman, this selling Guan Zi is only higher than her old son Nie Xiaoman, what is the matter now, why no one speaks happily anymore, all of them have to say a small half and then swallow it back into their stomachs. Behind the girl's sentence of "don't say it", there is clearly an important fact hidden. How could Jingmo let it go gently?

Jing Mo then forcibly squeezed out a strange and grotesque smile, and coaxed with a smirk: "What's ridiculous? I like to listen to jokes the most, but if you tell me, you won't laugh after all. ”

Unexpectedly, Liu Qing refused, "I don't say it, if the third lady of the Shang family knows, she will definitely scold me for chewing my tongue!" ”

Jingmo is a big slave in his heart, thinking that I am a brocade guard, wearing a flying fish suit, hanging an embroidered spring knife, doing what I do to ask for people's lives, and earning money from licking blood with knives. How could you go to find the third miss, the fourth miss kept chewing her tongue, but she still managed to maintain a smile and continued to persuade gently: "Sister Liu Qing, you can say as much as you want, the third miss will never know, you said it, I will give you a reward." ”

Liu Qing's clever eyes showed a look of cunning, and he squinted his eyes and smiled lightly at Jing Mo.

Liu Qing tilted his head sideways and said, "Then, if you find Chunlan, you can't say what I said." ”

Jing Mo packed the tickets again and again, and responded with a wry smile: "This is nature, this is nature, you can rest assured, I naturally won't say what you said." ”
