Hearing this, He Zikai suddenly realized something, his expression changed drastically, and he stood up immediately.
Seeing his son's emotion, He Peixu was a little confused and asked his son, "Zi Kai, what's wrong?"
"I suspect," He Zikai said firmly to his father, "there may be poison in the rice that uncle ate..."
The doctor said that my uncle had come into contact with something or eaten something. As for what happened yesterday, from what my father described it like, it seemed that there was only a problem with the wrong bowl at lunch, so... that bowl of rice... was probably...
Hearing what his son said, He Peixu thought seriously for a moment, and suddenly understood something. He stood up quickly, looked at his son, and asked, "You mean... there is poison in that bowl of rice, and the original bowl
The meal...should be mine, so..."
He Zikai looked at his father and did not answer, but he answered his father with certainty in his eyes. There must be something wrong with the bowl of rice.
He Peixu understood what his son meant, and immediately sat on the sofa behind him, his whole body in disbelief.
Seeing his father's appearance, He Zikai hurriedly took two steps forward and asked, "Dad, are you okay?"
He Peixu said nothing and shook his hand, just to signal to his son that he was fine.
He Zikai looked at his father for a while, making sure that his father was just surprised by the "fact" guessed in this way, and his mood was still stable. Then he looked at the housekeeper, his expression and tone changed a lot, and said to the housekeeper, "Let all the nannies stop what they are doing."
Come and gather here."
"Yes..." The housekeeper was standing nearby. He had heard the words of the master and the second young master just now. When he heard the second young master's instructions, he immediately responded.
Ten minutes later, all the nannies in the He family's mansion were standing in the living room. Because they were servants, they did not dare to face the master and the second young master. Everyone lowered their heads.
"Is everyone here?" He Zikai asked the housekeeper, his tone was frighteningly cold.
"No, no," the butler said. He raised his head and glanced at the second young master not far away. Then he lowered his head and replied, "There is one person missing."
"..." When He Zikai heard what the butler said, he looked at the butler with angry eyes and asked, "What's going on?"
The housekeeper replied tremblingly, "The nanny in charge of the kitchen just now said that a nanny disappeared yesterday. I wonder where she went? The phone couldn't be reached. I contacted her relatives' backup phone number, but I couldn't reach anyone."
He Zikai immediately shifted all his speculations to the missing nanny and asked the housekeeper, "When did she come to the mansion?"
"I came here seven months ago, and my work has always been average. I haven't made any typos, and I haven't done anything worthy of praise, so... I don't usually pay much attention to her." The housekeeper answered, not daring to look at her.
Second young master.
After hearing what the butler said, He Zikai did not ask any more questions immediately. Instead, he thought for a moment and then asked, "Who served yesterday's rice?"
No one answered now, and the whole first floor fell silent.
After seeing this situation, the housekeeper looked at the nannies behind him and asked seriously, "Don't any of you know how to serve rice?"
At this time, a nanny raised her hands with trembling hands and said, "Second Young Master, housekeeper, that...the rice was served by the nanny yesterday. I...I saw that she didn't take it out after serving the rice, so...I...
Take the rice out."
After saying that, the nanny was so frightened that she hurriedly explained, "But I swear, I didn't do anything in the rice. I really didn't. I swear on the lives of my whole family."
After the nanny finished speaking, she immediately lowered her head and did not dare to say another word.
He Zikai's eyes have been fixed on the nanny. He has been sizing her up since she just spoke, but judging from the way she spoke just now, it seems that... she is not lying.
After listening to the nanny's words, the housekeeper thought about it and turned to the second young master and said, "Second young master, this nanny usually works very seriously and has been working in the mansion for more than two years, so... I think... just now
What she said... wouldn't lie."
I have an impression of this nanny. She usually performs well, and the old lady has praised her several times, so I want to say a few words for her, and hope that the second young master can make some reasonable decisions.
After listening to the housekeeper's words, He Zikai said to the nanny, "Come here."
When the nanny heard this, she was scared, but she still walked forward step by step.
When she was some distance away from the second young master, the nanny stopped and did not dare to raise her head to look at the second young master. She lowered her head and greeted, "Second young master."
"When you placed the rice yesterday, you placed it wrong, did you know?" He Zikai asked seriously.
"..." The nanny suddenly froze, her legs softened and she knelt on the ground, saying hurriedly, "I'm sorry, I don't know, I really don't know."
Looking at the nanny's appearance, He Zikai did not think that she was the one who poisoned his uncle, but he still had doubts about her.
All the nannies around, including the nanny kneeling on the ground, knew that what the second young master was asking at this moment, and every word he said, was related to Mr. Bai's matter. All those who had nothing to do with him did not dare to say a word, for fear of causing trouble for themselves.
trouble.
He Zikai was silent for a long time before slowly speaking again, "You all can go down."
I was sure that the nanny who escaped was the one who poisoned me, and the nanny kneeling on the ground must be who she said she was. She didn't do anything, but...
She made a mistake and put the bowl in the wrong place.
And now I don't know whether her mistakes are real mistakes or... the right among the mistakes?
If the bowls were placed correctly yesterday, then the person lying in the hospital yesterday would be...father.
He Zikai didn't dare to think about it anymore. If something happened to his father, not only would his mother collapse, but he, Nuo'er, and his uncle would also collapse. But if something happened to his uncle, he would also be sad...
After hearing what the second young master said, the housekeeper waved his hand and all the nannies stepped back. The nanny who was kneeling on the ground was helped up by another nanny and left in a hurry.
After the housekeeper saw the nannies leaving, he then looked at the second young master, and then at the master who had been sitting on the sofa not far away and had been silent. He didn't know what to say.
During dinner yesterday, because Mr. Bai was there, the old lady ordered herself in advance to tell the nannies that while they were dining, the nannies also went to the small restaurant in the kitchen suite to eat, and there was no need to serve them, so the nannies did not
Know about the wrong placement of bowls.
After listening to what the master and the second young master said just now, I vaguely understood that it turned out to be... a problem with the rice, and the person who poisoned me, I was sure in my heart, must be the escaped nanny. (To be continued)
