Chapter 1256

With Fu Yinian’s order, Feng Tao was confident in catching Xiao Li.

There were two types of servants in the Fu family. For example, Xiao Li and Qiu Kui grew up in the Fu family, so their living conditions were relatively better. Two or three people lived in a single courtyard.

The other type was that Feng Tao belonged to the later generation. Originally, he was going to live in a big tong shop. Fu Yinian valued him more and gave him a separate courtyard to live in.

After asking his lackey, he went straight to Xiao Li’s place.

There were two houses in the courtyard. Xiao Li lived in the east and Xiao Zhao lived in the west.

Feng Tao brought his men and went straight into Xiao Li’s house.

Xiao Li was lying on the Kang to rest. When he heard someone pushing the door open, he got up to take a look. When he saw that Feng Tao had brought his men over, he immediately got up. He put the quilt on his body to the side. He tidied up the things on the Kang and piled them on the other side of the wall.

After tidying up a place, he said to Feng Tao, “brother Feng, what brings you here? “.

“It’s a cold day. Hurry up and warm up on the Kang.

“I just made a fire. It’s very warm inside the Kang. ”

Feng Tao did not stand on ceremony and sat on the edge of the Kang. He touched the Kang and found that it was indeed very hot inside.

“Not bad! It’s much warmer than the room I stayed in.

“You’re quite diligent. It’s cold, but you still know how to make a kang. ”

Xiao Li picked up the kettle on the stove.

He took a few more teacups and put some tea leaves in the teacups. A total of four people brought four cups of tea.

Then, all of them were brought over and placed on the small table beside the kang.

“there aren’t any good tea leaves. Everyone, make do with it. ”

Feng Tao picked up the teacup and took a SIP. “Not bad. Authentic Longjing tea. ” He placed the teacup down and looked at Xiao Li. “Xiao Li, you should have heard that something happened to the old man again.

“someone poisoned the soup. I came over to ask about it.

“weren’t you watching from the side when the kitchen people were moving things?

“Did you see anyone sneaking into the kitchen? ”

Xiao Li didn’t answer immediately. He lowered his head and pretended to recall. Then, he suddenly raised his head and said, “Qiu Rong, I remember that she went in.

“after everyone went out, I didn’t stay in the kitchen.

“instead, I waited outside. They moved the things into the kitchen. I had to take notes outside.

“Finally, I confirmed with the head chef.

“This is my daily work flow. If you don’t believe me, you can ask everyone. ”

“Qiu Rong went into the kitchen? “?

Feng Tao could be said to be quite familiar with Qiu Kui, Qiu Rong, and Qiu Jin. They were all people arranged by the eldest young master to stay by the old master’s side.

They mainly took care of the old master’s food and living. They had been serving the old master for at least five years since they were in their teens.

If he remembered correctly, Qiu Rong did not care about the kitchen at all. Instead, she was in charge of cleaning up the house.

Qiu Kui belonged to the eldest servant girl. She was in charge of taking care of the old master’s food and living.

Logically speaking, Qiu Rong should not have gone to the kitchen.

But now, the clues pointed to her, and Qiu Rong was clearly the eldest young master’s person.

If they were involved in this, the eldest young master and the old master would be poisoned, and the matter would be inextricably linked.

Feng Tao thought for a while and said to Xiao Li, “are you sure you didn’t see wrongly? Qiu Rong, she went into the kitchen alone. ”

“THAT’S RIGHT! ” Xiao Li looked at Feng Tao. “If you didn’t ask me, I wouldn’t have thought of it.

“She only went in for a minute and then left in a panic.

“I wasn’t standing at the door at that time, but went to the toilet for about a minute or two. When I came back, I just happened to see her silhouette coming out from inside and leaving. ”
