Chapter 55

"Son, pay respects to mother." Xiao Yi stepped forward and said respectfully to Mrs. Xiao.

"My maidservant has seen Madam!" Lin Xiaoran, who was a beat behind, also hurriedly saluted.

After the two saluted Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao nodded slightly, and Xiao Yi naturally sat on the side seat with no expression on her face.

"Cuirui, Rongzhi said yesterday that the bowl of porridge you are allergic to was given to you by Xiaochan?" Mrs. Xiao glanced at Xiaochan who was looking flustered, then she turned her gaze to Lin Xiaoran's face and said in a deep voice.

Seeing her calm and prestige, Lin Xiaoran quickly knelt down first, bowed her head and said "yes".

"Xiao Chan, what do you say?"

When Xiao Chan heard Mrs. Xiao calling her name, she quickly knelt down on the ground and argued, "Returning to Mrs., I really don't know what porridge is, and I haven't found Cui Rui either!"

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoran rolled her eyes, this man is really good at talking nonsense.

Mrs. Xiao didn't speak, she picked up the teacup at the side, blew on it, and took a sip slowly.

Seeing this, Rong Zhi at the side hurried forward and said, "Cuirui, do you have any witnesses?"

Lin Xiaoran read Cui Rui's memory again, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, there was nothing!

This Xiaochan does everything without leaking water, and the porridge is served in her room. At that time, no one can enter the Xiaohouye’s courtyard, and the only Xiaosi who can move freely is also cleaning the bathroom. At that time, Xiao Yi had already closed the bathroom. The lights went off.

In this way, I really can't find anything that can testify against myself.

"Cui Rui?" Seeing that she didn't respond, Rong Zhi frowned and called her again.

Lin Xiaoran curled her lips, then raised her head and replied: "There is indeed no one here, servant girl, who can prove it. At that time, the Xiao Hou Ye's courtyard was closed, and there will be no one else except Xiao Hou Ye and Xiao Si."

"My lady wants to make the decision for this servant! The servant is really innocent! There is only one year between the servant and Cui Rui entering the mansion. For so many years, the servant has always treated Cui Rui as her own sister. How could she frame her for nothing?"

After Xiaochan finished speaking with tears in her eyes, she quickly lowered her head and knocked heavily on the ground.

Lin Xiaoran didn't listen to Xiao Chan's sophistry, but was thinking about something else, since there was no clue to start from here, let's look for clues from the bowl of porridge.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoran said: "Returning to Madam, the porridge that Sister Xiao Chan gave to the slaves that night was crab meat porridge. Crab meat is a rare thing. Not everyone in this house drinks it, and Madam was the only one who had dinner the day before yesterday. I drank crab meat porridge in the courtyard, and the servants thought that they only need to ask the people in the lady’s small kitchen to know who served the porridge.”

Mrs. Xiao seemed to have thought of this a long time ago, Rong Zhi called out the door, and then seven or eight people walked in.

The spacious living room instantly became quite crowded.

"You also heard what Cui Rui said, what's the matter with this bowl of crab porridge?" Madam Xiao looked at them and asked in a deep voice.

After listening to Mrs. Xiao's questioning, the people kneeling below bowed their heads in silence, none of them dared to say anything.

【system notification!Tool bar update! 】

After hearing this, Lin Xiaoran was overjoyed. Is this a gift in the snow?

Excitedly, she opened it, and found that there was an extra card in the item bar: the mantra card.

It's just that the eye-catching 0 on the score block made Lin Xiaoran depressed.

I don't have much money left, even if I exchange all the points, it's not enough.
