Chapter 56
Ice cellar... Embroidery needles...

A flash of inspiration flashed through her mind, and she didn't grasp the point at all at such a fast speed.

Reaching out to pick up the embroidery needle, Dudu took a closer look and asked, "Ma Ma, can this be eaten?"

"No." Baili Changge immediately said: "There are many things in this world that you can't eat."

"What is it?" Dudu asked.

"You can't eat anything that isn't approved by your father."

Shaking his head, Dudu looked blank, apparently not understanding.

Baili Changge thought for a while, and said again: "Unless your father nods, you should not eat what others give you, otherwise your father will be unhappy."

"Oh..." Dudu nodded solemnly after sucking his reddened nose.

Waiting outside the ice cellar for half an hour, guessing that Leng Tao was almost frozen, Baili Changge came in to take it away.

Before leaving, she stopped and asked the bloody little official, "Who has been to the ice cellar in the past few days?"

While wiping the blood with his sleeve, the little official said, "People come from the big kitchen every day."

"Is there no one else?"

The little official couldn't resist her cold gaze, shivered and tried to remember, and suddenly said: "The third lady has been here. The stove in Qiufengyuan is opened by myself, but I will occasionally come to the ice cellar to get things. I remember the evening before yesterday. The third lady came here in person."

"What did she take, is it recorded?" She asked again.

"Yes." The little official stood up with difficulty, went back to his room and flipped through the booklet, and then took it out for Baili Changge to read.

She took it, glanced at it casually, and found that Wen's were all very common vegetables, which she herself ate in Qiufeng Garden last night.

"Do you clean this ice cellar every day?" Baili Changge asked with a frown, thinking of the embroidery needle just now.

"Of course." The little official nodded hastily, "I don't dare to make any omissions."

Baili Changge took out the ice-covered silver needle and approached him, "Then have you seen this before?"

The little official trembled, unable to withstand Baili Changge's imposing manner, backed a few steps in horror, shook his head again and again, and pulled the corners of his mouth and said: "Miss is joking, why are embroidery needles appearing in the ice cellar?"

That's right, how could there be such a coincidence in the ice cellar that something that was impossible to appear at all?

Along the way, Baili Changge was thinking about this question.

On the way back to the water pavilion, I met Qinxue. Baili Changge stopped, opened the food box, took a plate of Lengtao and handed it to her, and said, "The third lady hasn't eaten since morning. Take this to her, and tell her that I made it with my own hands, and the weather is hot and dry, so I can relieve the heat."

Qin Xue thanked her very politely, and said, "Third Madam has received a monthly letter in the past two days, so you can't eat iced food."

Baili Changge's eyes moved, "Did you just come here today?"

Qinxue was a little embarrassed, but when she thought that everyone was a woman, and Mr. Dudu was still young and ignorant, she said, "It came the day before yesterday."

"Then since the third lady can't eat, you can take it!" Baili Changge handed the plate to Qinxue, and said with a smile, "Anyway, I can't finish eating as much as I cook."

Qinxue thanked her, bowed and stepped back.

When they came to the waterside pavilion, Cui Mo's fingers had already been bandaged, and she stood upright with her head down.

Ye Hen's gaze was fixed on the piece of paper just now, and when he saw her coming, he bent his lips and said, "I found something interesting on it."
