Doesn't it mean that no one has seen this person's face? Moreover, the girl stopped many times while painting, as if she was reminiscing about something - was she thinking of painting now? Isn't this a bit too arbitrary?
"I dreamed about it today."
Faced with the little maid's question, Xu Mingyi answered calmly.
Dreamed about it?
Akui opened her mouth slightly.
Is it...a dream like lightning striking the Fengtian Temple?
However, the portrait the girl drew seems to retain some of the descriptions given by the cousin. For example, the painting also seems to be a one-armed person - so, is it the cousin's description that inspired the girl to dream?
But... the girl clearly hasn't had time to sleep today, right?
Could it be that the girl still dreams with her eyes open?
Aoi felt a little confused.
But when it comes to things related to girls, it’s okay to be confused.
Knowing that these things were as unsolvable as the girl's medical skills, Akui resigned and stopped thinking about it, took the painting and went to find Zhu Xiu.
After Zhu Xiu heard this, he was silent for a while.
The girl is even more divorced from reality than the empty verdict. At least the empty verdict can still be seen by someone. It's better for the girl. She can have a dream and ask him to arrest the person after such a drawing.
What if someone is really unlucky and has black smoke rising from his ancestor's grave, and happens to look like the one in the painting? Wouldn't it be unfair?
Forget it, regardless of whether he was wronged or not, let’s arrest him first and then talk about it.
If you catch it by mistake, you can release it again, but what if the girl is really blindfolded?
Moreover, the girl sometimes seems to act haphazardly, but she may not really be fooling around, and there may be another clue.
Zhu Xiu quickly arranged the matter.
…
At the same moment, the carriage of Wen's mother and daughter just stopped outside the gate of Yong'an Bo's Mansion.
Sisters Cui Yunwei and Cui Yunqing, one on the left and the other on the right, accompanied Mrs. Wen as they walked into the mansion.
"Mother..." Cui Yunqing asked in a low voice: "Father didn't embarrass mother because of what happened last night, right?"
My father also knew what happened last night.
Although this matter had nothing to do with my mother, my father always had no reason in his mind and would only anger his mother when something happened.
Mrs. Wen paused slightly when she heard this, then turned to look at her second daughter.
The girl's eyes, which seemed to have returned to their usual clarity, were now full of concern and uneasiness.
Wen's eyes suddenly turned red.
She hadn't heard Qing'er take the initiative to ask about anything for a long time, and her Qing'er seemed to have really come back.
"Mother..." Seeing her red eyes, Cui Yunqing frowned slightly - could it be that his father went too far?
"Mom is fine." Wen held her daughter's hand and said softly: "Your father didn't make things difficult for me. He just talked too much and said he wanted to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the thief for you. I didn't think he was making any noise.
Panicked, I gave him five taels of silver and asked him to drink..."
Five taels of silver can make this man disappear and be quiet for half a day. This is really a good deal - Wen sighed in her heart for the umpteenth time: It's great to have money.
Azhu, who was following Cui Yunqing, felt that it was a bit unnecessary.
Why go to so much trouble if you want to calm someone down? A problem that can be solved with a knife.
Cui Yunqing looked confused.
Want to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the thief for her? - When did my father learn to speak human language?
"Second sister, you haven't been out of the yard for a long time, maybe you don't know that the situation at home has changed, right?" Cui Yunwei said in a low voice: "My father is very obedient in front of my mother, and he doesn't dare to find Er again easily on weekdays.
Uncle is in trouble."
Cui Yunwei was stunned and confused.
Has she really been ill for too long?
Seeing that she was in much better spirits, Cui Yunwei happily talked to her about recent events at home.
In Cui Yunqing's courtyard, the two sisters chatted until dark and had dinner together.
"Second sister, can I stay and sleep with you today?"
Cui Yunqing wanted to say "no need". After all, she was a light sleeper at night, but she had to cover the person who was said to sleep with her and listen to him talk in his sleep. It was really a bit tiring.
But the girl still nodded.
The cousin asked Azhu to come over and stay with her, and her sister slept with her, so that she could be safer.
And Cui Yunqing's sense of security became even stronger before falling asleep——
Ah Zhu made a thick floor under the couch, unpacked the baggage he had brought, and poured out several things - a dagger, a sleeve crossbow, and a few exquisite darts.
The two sisters on the bed looked at Ah Zhu stuffing these things under the pillow, with expressions of admiration and admiration on their faces.
"You two cousins, please sleep peacefully. I will pay attention to all movements."
Cui Yunqing nodded.
But she probably still couldn't sleep easily - even if there was no flower picking incident, she usually couldn't sleep well.
However, this idea did not last long.
The candle was blown out, the bed curtain was gently lowered, and the sound of Cui Yunwei's even breathing came to his ears. Cui Yunqing listened and fell asleep unconsciously.
She slept very deeply and peacefully, without any dreams.
When I woke up the next day, the room was already bright.
Cui Yunqing opened her eyes and saw that her side was empty - had her sister gotten up? But she didn't seem to hear any movement. How could she sleep so deeply?
The girl slowly sat up, with her black hair hanging down, and raised her hand to push aside the bed curtain——
In an instant, golden sunlight streamed in, shining on her body, face, and eyes.
Cui Yunqing squinted his eyes slightly, his vision adjusted for a moment, and then he saw outside the wide open window, the bright spring light in the courtyard, rich green and bright red.
She blinked her eyes in confusion.
It seemed that she had not seen such a bright scenery for a long time. It seemed that spring was really coming - indeed, no matter how difficult and long the winter was, spring would arrive as scheduled.
"You finally woke up. Seeing you sleeping so soundly, I didn't even dare to wake you up."
Cui Yunwei walked in, chattering: "Now that you're awake, get dressed and wash up quickly. I'm waiting for you to have breakfast together. I'm going to be hungry."
While talking, he had already arrived in front of the bed and stretched out his hand towards his sister.
"Get up, what are you doing standing still?"
Cui Yunqing raised her head, met a round smiling face, and looked at each other. A long-lost smile appeared on her face, and she raised her hand to hold the warm hand.
…
Ah Zhu stayed in Yong'an Bo Mansion for six or seven days, but did not wait for the flower picker to come again.
Azhu was quite disappointed with this. After careful reflection, she couldn't help but feel that she was too conspicuous when she came that day. She didn't mention it openly and carried a burden. She should have come here secretly - otherwise,
Are you still worried that there are no flower pickers to play with?
In the next few days, the city became very peaceful, and the flower-picking thief suddenly seemed to have stopped making any noise.
Yin Jidong of Jingya Mansion should have felt relieved, but when he thought that his half-month period was right in front of him, the breath that had just been relieved suddenly rose again. The breath went up and down, almost forcing him to gasp.
The disease is coming.
Although there has been no new theory about the flower-picking thieves recently, there is another incident that has become a hot topic among the people.
