Chapter 350 Secretly inquire

Qin Daixin squinted her eyes and looked at the Chu family mansion.

It should have been a long time since the Chu family was settled.

At this time, a peddler was carrying a load and passing by the Chu family.

There is a spacious street in front, with tall trees straight into the clouds on both sides. There are many red bricks and green tiles here. The peddlers also do business with the girls and mothers in the mansion.

Qin Dai's heart flashed and suddenly reached out to stop the peddler, "Brother, stay."

The peddler who was carrying the burden looked only in his early twenties, and was quite tall, dark-skinned and average in appearance.

"Is there anything wrong with this young man?"

Qin Daixin said: "Borrow a step to speak."

As he said that, he didn't care whether he was happy or not, he took the burden on him to a secluded place.

Xue Qing shook her head from behind. It's really...

I hope the prince will not be angry.

The peddler put down the burden, first wiped the sweat on his forehead with a sweat towel wrapped around his neck, and then picked up a lady with a rough workmanship from the burden and kept fanning it, "I said, "Young Master, why did you pull me here? What I sell here are all things for my daughter's household. If you are idle and have nothing to do, you can go and fight crickets, and don't delay the villain's business." His tone was very unhappy.

Qin Dai's face turned dark, and it turned out that she regarded her as a playboy.

Xue Qing wanted to laugh, but she turned her head aside unnaturally.

"Brother, that's it."

Qin Daixin took out a small silver ingot and put it in the peddler's hand and said, "I'm sorry, brother."

The peddler was not happy when he saw the silver. However, he was very happy when he was doing business in the streets and alleys. He was also a very thoughtful person. He knew that some silver could not be taken, so he hurriedly said, "I don't know what the young master has to give this silver? This silver is a little worthless."

That's it, but he held the silver tightly.

Qin Daixin smiled and said repeatedly: "It's not a big deal." She pointed at Chu's house and lowered her voice: "There is a pretty maid in this mansion, which is my favorite. We have made a private decision for life, but she is someone else's slave, and she can't take charge of her life's major affairs by herself. My family... Alas, it's also quite famous, how could she agree to marry a slave as a wife?"

The peddler suddenly showed an expression like this.

Qin Daixin smiled secretly, with a sad look on her face, and said, "Oh, I have been detained at home by my parents these days. She has no choice but to leave the house and has no chance to leave the house. We have not been able to see each other for more than a month, and I don't know if she has forgotten me."

The peddler actually looked at her with sympathy, "I haven't seen her for a month? Oh, I know, his master is here, so she has no time, don't worry."

"His master?" Qin Daixin hurriedly said, "Didn't this house be empty and no one lives there? I heard from her that his master has been in the south!"

The peddler said, "I'm not talking nonsense. I'm walking around the streets and I may have heard a lot of news."

"Yes, yes, otherwise I won't ask you for information, right?" Qin Daixin took out another small silver ingot and stuffed it into his hand, "I hope the guy will talk to me more."

The peddler did not hesitate this time. He happily put the unexpected fortune in his arms and began to talk endlessly, "The master of this family is indeed in the south, and it was not until a month ago that his family went north. I heard that their family brought a lot of things, and there were as many as five carriages. There were many followers with them, but there were no women and girls, and they seemed to be all martial artists. However, it is no wonder that they have a great career and the south is far away from us. We must have to hire a escort..."

Qin Daixin heard some tricks and became more and more curious about the Chu family.

That peddler is a good person, so it is not an exaggeration to call him eloquently.

"Their family is quite mysterious and has strict access controls. They are definitely not ordinary families."

"Oh? How do you say this?"

"I passed by several times, and everyone who came was riding a tall horse with a guy's brawl in his waist." The peddler pressed his voice very low, "It's not like a serious businessman, but like a bite of food." The peddler made a sword gesture.

It implies that the Chu family makes friends with people from the martial arts world, or a loud horse.

This peddler is really bold.

"Huh..." the peddler suddenly said: "There are no female relatives in their family, only three mothers and two maids. Who is the maid you are talking about?"

This peddler knew a lot, and even knew how many mothers and maids there were. Qin Daixin looked like he cast doubtful eyes.

The peddler quickly explained: "My goods are either needles, threads, or rouge and powder. They are all items used by women. I carry a load to travel between the back doors of various governments every day, and I earn money from the maids and mothers in the mansion. You don't think about it, who would like to be the money ladies and ladies in the mansion, who would like to be the goods in my burden?"

This is the truth.

The peddler said again: "Once, their mother opened the corner door and called me over. She bought some silk thread from me, saying that she wanted to get a lump. Oh, you don't know, their servants are not easy to live, so they can only stay in this house. They can't see the master's family a few times a year, and there is no reward, and there is no oil or water to make. Since then, I have often gone there and brought them all kinds of silk threads for lump. After all, who do you like?" The peddler looked strange.

Qin Daixin immediately understood.

Most of the people who stayed in this house were servants who had no foundation and were not favored. Even young maids were afraid that they were of average appearance. This peddler probably had seen the two maids who stayed in this house, so he had this question.

Qin Daixin pretended to cough and said, "The one slightly taller."

The peddler's expression instantly became extremely exciting, and he said, "Oh, well, the young master's eyes are really..."

The girl's appearance is probably not as simple as usual.

Qin Daixin pretended not to see it and asked again: "Do you think it's because their master came that she doesn't have time to see me, instead of forgetting me? I said I came to the door rashly just to see a girl, would it be a bit rude?"

The peddler couldn't help but think of the slightly taller maid, her strong body, wide mouth and wide nose. Such a person is actually the "pretty" person mentioned by this young man? This man's preference is really special.

"That's right? Since the master of his family came, those mothers have not been able to get the thread with me. Maybe they are too busy and don't have time to contact me. But I advise you not to come to the door so recklessly. Their home has extremely strict access control and the doorkeepers are fierce!"

Qin Daixin pretended to be a little melancholy, "I'm sorry, brother."

Qin Daixin bowed to him, obviously not wanting to ask anything.

The peddler wanted to speak but stopped, but in the end he didn't say anything, just shook his head and left with a load.

Qin Dai watched the peddler leave, and then he felt thoughtful.

"Xueqing, what did you hear from the peddler's words?"

Xue Qing thought for a while before saying, "It is true that there is something strange inside and outside. The Chu family is a businessman, and it is a top-notch wealthy businessman. It is normal for such a family to keep some guards, but the peddler said that those people are carrying guys on them, and they don't seem to be good people. And the man who guards the door really doesn't look like an ordinary guard."

This is exactly eight points.

Qin Daixin said again: "There is also Qi Baozhu."

"Oh, yes, how could this Miss Qi be with the Chu family? Although she is the wife of the Chu family, it is reasonable that the two of them are not allowed to meet in private after the engagement. But seeing Miss Qi's old horse's way of knowing the way, it is obvious that she has been here more than once." This is something that Yu Li is incompatible.

Qin Daixin patted Xue Qing on the shoulder, "You stay here to see when she comes out and where she goes." She naturally pointed to Qi Baozhu.

Xueqing nodded quickly and asked again: "Where are you?"

"I'll go to the bookstore to listen to books..."

Xue Qing: “…”

Qin Daixin didn't care about Xue Qing and left on her own.

I was thinking about the Chu family along the way.

What did the Chu family want to get from her? Was Qi Baozhu used it, or was it because she was involved in these things?

For some reason, she just felt that Qi Baozhu was deceived by the Chu family. The Chu family’s true intention to marry her must be not simple.

At this moment, the bookstore arrived.

The primary apprentice who was welcoming people at the door had already come over, "Oh, Mr. Mo, are you here?" He said, and glanced behind him, and then said, "Why didn't you bring someone with you today?"

Qin Daixin raised her foot and walked inside, "Everyone is in the way, I'm upset."

Every time Qin Daixin comes, she wears men's clothes. Not only does her face have a fake beard, but she also paints her face, neck and hands slightly darker, and her eyebrows are also thicker and longer.

It is difficult for ordinary people to give up on her as a woman.

The primary school apprentice was clever and arranged a seat in a corner for Qin Daixin, with an extremely enthusiastic attitude.

There is actually a private room upstairs. Qin Daixin thinks it is too closed and can't hear anything, so every time she comes, she sits in an inconspicuous place downstairs. Qin Daixin ordered a pot of tea, two refreshments, and a plate of melon seeds as usual.

The primary apprentice said, "Mr. Mo will sit first, and tea will come right away."

Although he was sitting alone, Qin Daixin never gave him less money than the men in the private room there, so the primary school apprentices were particularly attentive to Qin Daixin.

After a while, tea and other items were brought up.

Qin Daixin threw a silver lump to the apprentice, which was two taels.

The primary school apprentice was so happy that he couldn't see the teeth and went down happily.

The artist who was telling stories on the stage was striving to tell stories. He was wearing a long robe, telling stories vividly while making various corresponding actions. This form of performance is very similar to storytelling in later generations.

After a while, the primary apprentice ran back and lowered his body slightly and said, "Mr. Mo, there is a master upstairs who wants to ask you to come over and talk."

Qin Daixin frowned and subconsciously looked in the direction pointed by the primary apprentice.

On the platform on the second floor, a man in a jade brocade robe was looking at her.
