Xiao Li leaned over and asked, "what is this?"
Liu Wei twists a piece and hands it to her son. "What do you smell?"
Xiaoli listened to the smell, hesitated to return: "the smell of dried body oil?"
"And what else?"
Xiaoli was nervous immediately, because he only smelled the smell of dry body oil, but didn't smell anything else, so he took his fingers and began to prevaricate: "that Well
"Ma." Liu Wei said.
Xiaoli's eyes brightened and said: "yes, it's hemp. It's different from cotton and silk. Because of the precision of silk making, the smell of silk after burning is astringent. Cotton will be a lump of ash after burning, but the hemp will harden in a large area, but the shape is loose and easy to twist into ash."
With one breath finished, Xiaoli felt that she was so awesome that she immediately held her head up and looked at her mother.
But his mother didn't look at him at all, only frowned and searched for the body of the nurse.
Xiaoli is a little disappointed with his mouth, but soon he finds a clue: "Hey, the silk clothes the nanny wears. Look at the nanny's elbows and joints. I'll smell them again. Well, it's pungent and astringent, but it's not right. Why don't they wear a cloth?"
Before the loss, Xiaoye picked up milk. She didn't want any of the nannies she found in the county. Therefore, Xiaoli learned a lot of rules between the nannies and the little master, two of which are particularly important.
First, if you want to have enough and good milk, you must give the nanny the best tonic, delicacies, bird's nest and shark's fin. You can't be stingy if you give them. Otherwise, the quality of milk is not good, and the nanny doesn't have enough nutrition.
Second, because the little master is to be held by the nanny for feeding, the best way is to cultivate the relationship between the little master and the nanny. The clothes and smell of the nanny are the same as that of the little master. The little master will subconsciously think that this is his mother, will be very dependent on her, and will be more reassured when she eats the milk.
It is precisely because of these two points that it is common for large households to hire a nanny, usually for a lifetime.
If you only feed the young master and don't recognize people, it's better to say. But if you feed the young master and he will recognize people when he is two or three years old, then this nanny is not much different from his mother in the eyes of the young master. Only when the child is older and more sensible can you distinguish between the nanny and his mother.
Sun Jun is three years old. If this nanny has fed him for three years, she must follow the rules. The clothes, materials and smell are similar to sun Jun.
Satin is soft and linen is hard. Anyway, children seldom wear linen. Even poor people care for their children and try to wear cotton clothes for them. Linen clothes are too poor to be worn by delicate children?
Xiao Li doesn't understand. Liu Wei understands everything.
Liu Wei got up and went to the front group of maidservants of the sun's family who were sobbing. She opened her mouth and said, "I saw your young master in front of the sun's house wearing a clear ice blue wide breasted silk brocade shirt. Later, he changed his clothes?"
The maids did not know why the man asked these questions. After a while, they said, "no, I changed my clothes before I went out. How could I change them later?"
Liu Wei frowned: "have you been behind the carriage? Do you notice anything moving or still? "
Maids shook their heads: "the carriage is of the door type, and the carriage runs faster than us. We don't know."
Liu Wei probably has an idea: "how much do you know about Sun Jun's nanny? Among the relatives and friends of a nanny, have you recently borrowed money or got into trouble with an official? "
Liu Wei said that one of the maids really thought of it and said, "brother of the nanny, I remember who said that when brother of the nanny worked at the wharf, the goods fell down and hit the passers-by and hurt them. I want to pay more than 80 Liang."
"I know I know." Another maid also said to her, "it's said that she can't go to the hospital. She's still in the county jail. Her brother's daughter-in-law was just about to give birth. Hearing this news, she was scared of premature delivery, shed a lot of blood, and almost couldn't protect her size. Although she kept it later, she fell down and is still in bed."
A few handmaids are full of gossip. They tell all the gossip they know. Liu Wei tidies it up and makes her mind more certain.
Nanny is short of money, eighty-two, or more than eighty-two, the convalescence of his younger sister, the care of his younger nephew, and even if his younger brother can get out of the cell, he can't find a living for the time being. Barely speaking, nanny needs at least one hundred Liang silver to save his younger brother's family.
But Xijin county is only a small county. Although the nanny works as a nanny in the sun's family, she lives and eats in the sun's family. She can't save any money. If she wants to take one hundred Liang at a time, she can't take out her life.
What if I can't get it out?
As the old saying goes, a penny can beat a hero. It's just when there's no money to help. As long as there's money, what can't be done?
Besides, I just changed my clothes for the little master quietly.
Linen is no more flame retardant than cotton and silk, but cotton and silk are more flame retardant than linen!
To ensure that the fire can burn to Sun Jun, Sun Jun can't even take off his clothes, that linen is undoubtedly the most appropriate.It is impossible for a charming young master to wear hemp clothes on ordinary days. Buying a nanny is the best and fastest way.
And since the linen clothes are for better combustion, how to burn? Where the fire comes from, it becomes another problem!
Liu Wei looked around and did not see Zhang Mazi and his daughter-in-law mentioned in the rumor. She asked the Yamen servant next to her, "what about the arsonist?"
The Yamen servant said, "I have pleaded guilty and have been taken back to Yamen."
Liu Wei frowned: "who pleaded guilty?"
The Yamen servant was obviously a master who knew how many scum Zhang pockmarked. Hearing this, he was disgusted: "of course, it's Zhang pockmarked's daughter-in-law. She brought out the torch and oil. Zhang pockmarked said that he was also chased out. He didn't expect anything to happen later. Anyway His daughter-in-law may have to pay for her life this time, but it's pockmarked Zhang. Maybe she can still be released. "
As Liu Wei thought.
Sun Jun's death was not an accident, but a deliberate homicide. The people behind the scenes bought Zhang Mazi to provoke his daughter-in-law. At the same time, they arranged a torch and oil, which were within the reach of his daughter-in-law.
Otherwise how to explain, in the daytime, suddenly there are torches and oil coming out?
Zhang Mazi took advantage of his daughter-in-law's madness to find him desperately, and intentionally took her to the carriage nearby. The carriage was a box lock. As long as there was a fire outside, there would be no fire inside. In addition, the torch also frightened the horse, making the carriage more bumpy.
Maybe the nanny didn't know that she was changing clothes for the little master, which would make the little master return to the West. What's more, she died together with the little master.
It's pockmarked Zhang, who raises the torch and throws the torch. It's his daughter-in-law. He's light and can get a lot of money from the people who cooperate behind the scenes. This business is really a steady one.
But don't think about it. Even the nanny can be killed at the same time. How could the person behind the scenes really let go of pockmarked son?
Liu Wei took a deep breath and said to the Yamen servant, "go to yamen immediately. Zhang Mazi is in danger."
