Chi Qingyu tried to ignore the taste and began to look for something seriously.
When they were in the morgue looking at steward Sheng's body, they found that steward Sheng had that strange smell.
Although they don't know what the fragrance is, Chi Qingyu thinks that there must be something to do with Zhang Xiao.
According to the news of Han Jiu, this housekeeper Sheng is an orphan, without father or mother, and has lived in Sheng's family since childhood.
Shengfu rules and strict, Zhang small want to go into Shengfu, that do what people stare at, two people certainly not easy to contact.
So their best choice is to meet outside.
If you meet outside, Xie Qiran and Chi Qingyu discuss it and think that the place they are most likely to choose is Zhang Xiao's home.
That's why they are here today, but according to what Chi Qingyu has seen, there is nothing suspicious.
A simple and shabby little home, tables and chairs, scattered books on bookshelves, and two separate rooms, a room and a bed, are their living rooms.
There is nothing else.
Chi Qingyu's vision turns around in the room, and finally falls on the bookshelf.
"Qiran." Chi Qingyu suddenly shouts.
Xie Qiran looked back, followed her line of sight and said, "how?"
"Can Zhang Xiao read? Chi Qingyu asked.
Xie Qiran was silent for a while, and said: "Han Jiu said that when Zhang Xiaozai's family worked, what they did was the rough work of escorting. If they could read, they would turn to do something easy."
You mean you can't read?
Why does a person who can't read big characters have to set up a bookshelf at home?
Chi Qingyu feels very strange. He walks over and casually selects a book to read.
I thought it was such a street gathering, but I never thought it was the kind of book Chi Qingyu showed Xiaojing on weekdays.
This kind of book is suitable for beginners. Chi Qingyu specially selected it for Xiaojing.
So why does Zhang Xiao have such a book? Is he learning to read?
Chi Qingyu's vision turns around and finds a stack of white paper in a corner of the bookshelf.
The paper is clean. There's nothing on it.
"Paper for practicing calligraphy." Xie Qiran's voice suddenly rang out nearby.
Chi Qingyu looked back at him and said strangely, "how do you know this is for practicing calligraphy?"
This white paper shows nothing. How can Xie Qiran see it?
Chi Qingyu looked back and forth, but it was just a piece of white paper, there was nothing special.
Xie Qiran reached out and took the white paper in her hand and folded it up. "This kind of white paper is a specialty of Jiangnan. Because the weather in the south of the Yangtze River is hot and humid, different from that in the north, the materials used for paper making are also different. "
Chi Qingyu understood Xie Qiran's meaning. She looked at the white paper in Xie Qiran's hand and said, "do you mean that this chapter may be learning to practice calligraphy?"
Smelling speech, Xie Qiran glanced at her and said, "it's not my meaning, it's your meaning. Don't you think so?"
Well, she does think so. Chi Qingyu coughed awkwardly and said, "this book is still very new, that is to say, Zhang Xiaoer just started recently. The money for books and paper is not what Zhang Xiao can afford. I think it may have something to do with housekeeper Sheng. What do you think? "
Chi Qingyu looks at Xie Qiran and hopes to hear Xie Qiran's ideas.
Who ever thought, Xie Qiran just nodded calmly and said: "well."
"No more?" Chi Qingyu asked.
Xie Qiran looked at her and asked, "do you need anything else?"
Chi Qingyu is dumb. It's not what she wants to hear.
"I just said what I thought, and you? What do you think? "
Xie Qiran hooked the corner of his mouth and said, "madam, your idea is my idea, and I agree with it."
"Well, what do you think is their relationship?" Chi Qingyu selectively ignores those two words and continues to ask.
Xie Qiran did not speak, put down the white paper in his hand, turned and walked towards the bedroom.
There are two bedrooms in Zhang Xiao's family. One is Zhang Xiao's and the other is his parents' bedroom.
I don't know what Xie Qiran means. Chi Qingyu follows him into the room.
This room, which should be small, has nothing but a bed.
After Xie Qiran turns around the room, Chi Qingyu doesn't find anything. He looks at Xie Qiran suspiciously and asks, "is there anything here?"
"You're still a doctor, don't you smell it?" Xie Qiran asked.
Chi Qingyu is stunned. Her nose and breath are all smelling of rust. Besides, she can't smell anything else.
"What's the taste?" Chi Qingyu asked.
To make sure she didn't smell it, Xie Qiran went to the only window in the room, pushed the window from the inside out and said, "here."As the window is opened, Chi Qingyu smells a familiar smell.
Because of the smell of damp and rust in the room before, Chi Qingyu didn't smell it at all.
Now that the window is open, the musty smell is gone, and the smell that comes with it makes Chi Qingyu understand what Xie Qiran is saying.
"The taste..." Chi Qingyu sniffed carefully and said, "although there are some differences, they are very similar."
Yes, the smell is very similar to the one they asked on the corpse before. Chi Qingyu stood by the window and looked out.
Zhang's yard is small, there is not much space behind the window, only a wall, and a gap less than people's width.
And it is in this crevice that a row of blue flowers are planted.
"That's the taste." Chi Qingyu stares at those blue flowers and says cautiously.
Xie Qiran also saw the flowers. He bent down and picked one.
With Xie Qiran's gesture, the smell between his nose and breath became more intense.
Chi Qingyu rubbed his nose and felt that it was itchy. He reached out to rub his nose, but he was caught by the people around him.
"Wait a minute. You just touched this thing. You haven't washed your hands yet." Xie Qiran said.
Chi Qingyu took a look at his hand and said with an embarrassed smile, "well, I know."
After Xie Qiran let go of her, Chi Qingyu chose to carry Xie Qiran on his back and rub his nose with his sleeve.
Chi Qingyu takes a deep breath, and the rich smell outside the window enters Chi Qingyu's nose.
Because of this, Chi Qingyu suddenly remembered what fragrance it was.
"I remember what it tasted like!" Chi Qingyu smiles excitedly. She points to the flowers outside and says, "I remember! I remember
Seeing that she was so excited, Xiaojing said strangely, "Mommy, we've all seen it. It's the smell of such words."
Chi Qingyu glanced at him and said, "what do you know? It's not the taste of flowers at all. "
Looking out, Chi Qingyu reaches out his hand and opens the blue flowers to reveal the green grass under them.
"See! That's it. It's a hallucinogenic drug. It has a very light taste, which may not be detected in ordinary days. Once it comes into contact with the skin, the taste is extremely difficult to handle. Especially after the water, it's more difficult. " Chi Qingyu explains with a smile.
Wen Yan, Xiaojing ran to pad his feet and looked out.
After seeing the green grass, Xiaojing stares at Chi Qingyu in surprise and says, "Mommy, it's really there!"
Of course, Chi Qingyu knew this kind of grass, because they used it to make cosmetics at that time.
After coming here, the cosmetics are gone, and you can only make what you need, so Chi Qingyu will remember this.
Thanks to her thinking for a long time, no wonder she always felt familiar with it.
Xie Qiran has also seen what Chi Qingyu said. If Chi Qingyu is right, then it's almost certain that housekeeper Sheng has a connection with Zhang Xiao.
