Arriving in the kitchen, Lin Mengya instantly understood what her third brother meant.
Indeed, if someone poisons or does something here, the entire academy will not be spared.
But she grabbed the third brother's arm.
"I have to go take a look. I will be careful not to make anyone suspicious."
Gong San thought she was afraid that her impatience would reveal some flaws, but she didn't expect that she would drag him into a corner without any explanation.
"Third brother, there are no traces of poison here."
When it comes to poison, her nose is as sharp as a dog's.
After seeing that the third brother didn't believe it and wanted to go inside for a closer look, Lin Mengya pulled him and avoided the crowd.
“Little sister, it’s not too late, just in case”
"Nothing but just in case, don't forget what my teacher does. I can smell it with my nose if there is any poison in it."
Gong San believed what Lin Mengya said.
However, the anxiety between his eyebrows did not diminish, and he was obviously still worried about the safety of the students.
"Third brother, you should avoid people now and go to Ruxinyuan to wait. I will look around for you. If I find anything, I will inform you as soon as possible."
Hearing what she said, Gong San couldn't hold on anymore.
After repeatedly telling her to be careful and not to rush into anything, the two of them parted ways.
Lin Mengya did not leave in a hurry, but ordered Bai Su to follow her third brother and make sure he entered Ruxinyuan before returning.
She hid in the corner, staring closely at the people coming and going in the kitchen, but her brows were furrowed.
"master."
Bai Su quietly returned to her side.
Lin Mengya withdrew her gaze and asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone following Third Brother on this journey?"
"There were two sneaky people, but after seeing the Third Young Master arriving at Ruxinyuan, they left."
"Where did you see it went?"
"I followed one of them to the backyard. That person seemed to be just a helper. He had already walked out of the back door."
Two people, but in different directions.
Since one has left the academy, the other must have stayed in the academy.
She was thinking about this just now.
If the other party is really here to poison, then he should keep a low profile as much as possible to prevent others from noticing anything unusual.
However, even the guards at the door noticed something was wrong, as if the other party was trying to attract their attention deliberately.
"Is there anyone around now?"
Bai Su shook his head. It was obvious that those two people were staring at the third brother.
Since the other party wants to frame him, then He must have set a trap somewhere.
The third brother comes to the college every day. If anything happens to the students, he will definitely be responsible.
But the question is, what exactly did they do?
Lin Mengya did not dare to ignore it at all. She and Bai Su searched all the places where the students could have access, but found nothing.
Seeing that it was time for the children to eat, the students all arrived at the dining room under the leadership of their respective chiefs.
In desperation, Lin Mengya had no choice but to take Bai Su back to the dining room.
There are a lot of people here, and if someone really takes the opportunity to drug him, she must find it out as soon as possible.
The students in the dining room also looked at this unfamiliar woman with some curiosity.
Although there is a women's college in the college, except for very few subjects, male and female students are now separated.
Among these students, the eldest are fifteen or sixteen years old, and their youthful hearts are ready to take action.
Seeing that although her appearance is not superior, her temperament is outstanding, so there are a few bold people who try to express themselves and attract the attention of the opposite sex.
But how did they know that in Lin Mengya's eyes, these students were just a bunch of brats.
While she was deep in thought, a chubby little fat man ran up to her without fear of danger.
"Sister, sister, why didn't the dean come?"
She lowered her head and saw that the child was about seven or eight years old.
Wearing a light gray student uniform and a small hat on his head, with his chubby little face and big round eyes, he is really cute.
"The dean has something to do and can't come today. Do you want to see the dean?"
When the little fat man heard that the dean could not come, he immediately looked disappointed.
"I can only hope that the dean can come. He used to personally deliver meals to us. The dean is the best. He gives me lots of meat every time."
Seeing that the little fat man was only thinking about eating meat, Lin Mengya couldn't help but smile.
He led him to the servant who was responsible for distributing food, and personally served him a bowl full of meat. He was afraid that the child's nutrition would be unbalanced, so he also served him some vegetables.
"If you still want to eat meat for your next meal, you should also eat up all these vegetables!"
She was used to coaxing her two children at home, and naturally became gentler when talking to them.
When the little fat man heard that he wanted to eat more vegetables, he immediately wrinkled his face into a little bun.
"I know, I know, sister and the palace director are together
Like, I'm not a lamb from the back mountain, only lambs like to eat vegetables!"
Lin Mengya couldn't help but laugh secretly in her heart about this child.
Seeing that there was no problem in the front, she went to the kitchen again.
Someone happened to bring two large wooden barrels in. As soon as they entered the door, Lin Mengya's eyes fell on the two large barrels.
"What's in this barrel?"
All the stewards in the college had met her before.
The kitchen is one of the most important places in the entire academy, and the person in charge was personally selected by Ning Liang, so he did not dare to neglect it.
Wiping her hands, she hurriedly replied, "Girl, this is the goat milk ordered by the dean to be given to the students every day. Look, it's all freshly squeezed out."
The kitchen manager opened the lid, and a strong smell of milk came out. Lin Mengya only took a look inside, but couldn't see any change on her face. She only asked casually, "This goat's milk is raised on the mountain behind?"
That group?"
"That's right! This sheep can be milked normally. When the weather gets cold, it can be slaughtered and made into pots to eat. It will warm the stomach."
The person in charge was clever, but Lin Mengya had other plans.
After taking a peek inside, I looked at the front yard again.
"It seems to me that this goat's milk is not enough."
Hearing what she said, the steward's face immediately showed a little embarrassment.
"Sir, it's just that this sheep doesn't like to give birth to milk these days. I've been fed fresh grass all day long, but it's really worrying."
Lin Mengya smiled, as if she sympathized with the steward's plight.
"I also understand your difficulty. Originally, this goat's milk was intended to add more nutrition to the students. But now it is not enough and I don't know how to divide it."
The kitchen manager was also a little anxious. In the past few days, he had been giving everyone a little less, but he was able to get over it.
But the goat's milk was getting less and less every day. Today, I only had this little bit, but this gentleman hit me again.
I couldn't help but worry, for fear that I would be caught in the wrong position and lose this good job.
"Don't be nervous. I know I really can't blame you for this. In my opinion, it's better to let a few people go to the city to buy some milk first. But the taste of cow's milk is slightly different from that of goat's milk. If someone finds out, it will be worse.
It’s your fault for complaining. Please give me the goat’s milk today.”
After hearing what she said, the kitchen manager immediately agreed.
He didn't even ask her what she was doing with so much goat milk, and immediately ordered someone to buy it.
"However, I think this matter should not go through the kitchen."
As soon as she opened her mouth, the kitchen manager was a little confused nervous.
"Mr. Su Mei, this, this is what you said!"
Lin Mengya whispered in a low voice, "Although I know, I can also testify for you. But one more thing is worse than one less thing. If others find out about this, they will praise you for your ability to do things. I don't know, I thought you were good at doing things." I have enriched my own pockets from it. I have already prepared the silver for you, and you have to take care of the rest by yourself."
She took five taels of silver from Bai Su's hand and gave it to the kitchen manager.
The man wiped his forehead, with a bit of joy on his face, and said gratefully, "You are still thoughtful. Don't worry, I will let my family handle this matter, and it will not delay anything."
Seeing that the matter had been taken care of, Lin Mengya didn't stay any longer.
But for the two buckets of goat's milk, she and Bai Su pushed them to the corner and poured them out while no one was paying attention.
Seeing the milky white juice seeping into the soil, the look in her eyes became colder.
After returning the two wooden barrels to the kitchen, Lin Mengya and Bai Su tidied up their clothes and headed towards Ruxinyuan.
"Let's go and find the third brother."
Gong San couldn't sit still. He kept walking around the inner room of Ruxinyuan, staring at the door.
But he had to listen to his little sister's words.
My heart was burning with anxiety, and I was worried about the students in the college.
I finally waited for the person to come back and hurriedly greeted him.
"Are the students okay?"
Lin Mengya looked at the anxious look on her third brother's face, but secretly sighed in her heart that the dean had made the right choice.
"It's not convenient here, let's go in and talk."
The three of them arrived at the inner room. Bai Su automatically stood guard outside the door, while Gong San was already out of his mind.
"Little sister, what happened?"
"It's okay for now."
"For the time being? Could it be that there are other hidden dangers in the college? No, they are all my students, and I will never let them get hurt at all."
Seeing that the third brother was about to rush out to find someone, Lin Mengya could only push the person down on the chair first.
"That's natural, but it's not appropriate to act rashly now. Do you know how sophisticated they are?"
Gong San shook his head. Now he wished he could hide his children under his wings so that they would not be exposed at all.
"There are no problems with the dining room and the children's residence. They actually poisoned the sheep in the back mountain."
"What?"
Gong San looked surprised. To be honest, even Lin Mengya had not thought of this direction for a moment.
