Chapter 82 Another Person
In Qingfengyuan, Mrs. Zheng was sitting on a chair in the house, with Madam Kang standing beside her, and four maidservants standing on the left and right.

There are some people kneeling on the ground, all of them are the stewards in charge of various places in Qingfengyuan. Since we want to check one by one, it is natural to start with these stewards first.

"You have been working in Qingfengyuan for a long time. You must know what kind of temper Madam is. Right now Qingfengyuan has lost something, and this investigation is always indispensable."

"If there is really someone with dirty hands and feet, stand up now and recruit everything. Considering that you are all old people in Qingfengyuan, Madam will definitely punish him lightly."

"If you don't recruit, this person has a shadow tree and roots, and they are all working in Qingfengyuan. It's only a matter of time before they are found out. By then, there will be no sale, and they will be killed directly!"

Mother Kang glanced at Mrs. Zheng, saw her nodded slightly, and then she turned to all the stewards and spoke unhurriedly.

The stewards knelt on the ground, and after listening to what Mother Kang said, you looked at me and I looked at yours, and couldn't help but look at each other.

Seeing the reactions of the stewards, Mrs. Zheng picked up the cup and took a sip of water, "You all heard what Mother Kang said. If I confess now, I can let the past go."

"You are all the stewards of my Qingfengyuan. Even if it is not you, I can take the people under your command out lightly."

After she finished speaking, she put down the cup, and her moderate voice was falling on the hearts of every steward.

The stewards are still kneeling on the ground, just like before, you look at me and I look at yours, one of them dared to say, "Ma'am, you also told Mother Kang that we are old people, and Madam It is too late to thank you for being promoted, how dare you do those things that betray the Lord?"

"As for whether it is someone under our hands, this... This must be checked by the younger ones before they can report back."

"Although the young ones are in charge of various places, but because they are in charge, many things don't have to be done by themselves, let alone touch the things in the lady's room. The young ones heard that the jewelry in the lady's room was also lost... Those are by no means The little ones can touch it!"

In this Qingfeng Garden, apart from Madam Kang, the four servant girls beside her can touch the objects in Zheng's house.

After the steward finished speaking, the four maidservants quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Mrs. Zheng, "I beg Madam to be clear, the servant girls will never dare!"

Zheng's eyes flicked over the maids one by one. What the steward said made sense. They were the only ones who could touch the objects in the house. Mother Kang absolutely trusted her. As for the four... …

Before, Mrs. Zheng had mentioned to Mother Kang that she suspected that there was an inner ghost around her. Now that these things happened, she naturally became more suspicious.

"Ma'am, according to this old slave, it may not be the four of them. After all, you brought them from your mother's house. After all these years with you, you usually give them a lot of things. I'm afraid I don't dare to take your things, madam."

The four maidservants knelt down, but Nanny Kang stood aside and did not move. At this moment, Mrs. Zheng did not speak, and Mrs. Kang took a few steps to salute Mrs. Zheng.

With Mother Kang begging for mercy, Zheng's complexion became better. She took a deep breath, raised her hand, and signaled the four maidservants to get up.

At the same time, she was thinking about the current matter in her mind. Even if the stewards could touch the things in the warehouse, they couldn't touch the things in the house. This Qingfengyuan was not just her master.

"You go down first, check the people under your hands one by one, if there is anything suspicious, turn it over to me."

After thinking about it, she gave instructions to the stewards, who responded and retreated together.

Afterwards, Mrs. Zheng looked at the four maidservants again, and ordered them to retreat too.

When everyone retreated, only Mrs. Zheng and Mother Kang were left in the room.
"Mommy, I think you seemed to have something to say just now." Looking at Nanny Kang, Zheng said.

"Ma'am, don't you think these things are strange? It's not been a day or two since you moved into this Qingfengyuan. It’s a job well done.”

"It is said that 'when the water is clear, there will be no fish'. You have always turned a blind eye to many things. They naturally know that Madam, your forgiveness has always been measured. How dare you do such a thing?" thing?"

"These four girls in the house are considered to be grown up by the old slave. They definitely dare not. You are not at home all the time. This is not guaranteed..."

Nanny Kang dared not speak too clearly about the latter part. Although she was the nanny next to Zheng, she was a servant after all, and she shouldn't talk about her master's faults.

And right now, what she said was pointing at another master in Qingfengyuan——Shen Pei.

Although she didn't say it clearly, Mrs. Zheng understood what she meant, and she was so skeptical in her heart, that's why she made everyone else retreat.

Thinking of the recent times when he asked her for money, and the previous few times, she managed to get it together. This time, she made up her mind and said nothing to make him think. Under such circumstances, it is really impossible to say that he can do it. What come out.

The lost things are worth a lot of money. Even if they can't be sold for money, if the master has something outside, it is enough to use these things to deal with.

"Mommy, do you think...do you think it could really be him?" She doubted in her heart, but Mrs. Zheng didn't want to believe it, so Nanny Kang sighed and didn't speak.

"Send someone to investigate, look for connections, see if you can find anything in those pawnshops in Shangdu! In addition, let people watch the master more closely, I must find out!"

Mrs. Zheng gritted her teeth resentfully, Mother Kang responded in a low voice, and stepped back to make arrangements.

If something happened to the third room, the second room would naturally know about it.

Shen Xu discussed a few words because of this matter, but Cui Shi just listened, but didn't say anything. As for Xiao Zheng Shi, she is pregnant now, but the fetal image is not stable, and she doesn't care much, just sneers A few times.

-

As the day of the examiner's school was approaching, Mrs. Zheng handed over all matters to Mother Kang to arrange. When the day of the examiner's school came, she deliberately took a carriage and waited outside the examination room for her elder brother's family to arrive.

Shen Yunming also wanted to refer to it, and Cui and Shen Xu came to see him off.Da Cui also came, and she came to watch her two nephews enter the examination room.

When she arrived, Cui Zhen and Lu Shi brought the two brothers there. After they all saluted, the children went to line up and entered the examination room one by one.

"These days I'm preparing things for Yun'er to get married. I want my sister-in-law to go to the Hou's Mansion with you to help me see." When the gate of the examination room was closed, Mrs. Cui looked at Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Lu, and said with a smile .

Even though she said so, Cui knew that this was just an excuse. When she was at her mother's house, her sister had said that she had invited a female doctor to the Hou's mansion.

Mrs. Lu agreed with a smile, Mrs. Cui glanced at Shen Xu, who dared to stop him, and quickly smiled apologetically, expressing his willingness to let Mrs. Cui go.

 Because of the epidemic, I moved less, but I had a lot of things to do. I wanted to leave home early and return to Beijing, but I made an appointment to go to the hospital for an examination on the fourth day. something.
