MTL - Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year-Chapter 506 My sister is willing to help

 In the spice shop.

 The shopkeeper respectfully took out the order book and showed it to Xie Mingan and Shen Ningning.

They arrived and had a stick of incense. Xie Mingan told the shopkeeper that he wanted to buy the best-selling incense with musk as the main ingredient.

 Let the shopkeeper recommend it.

So the enthusiastic shopkeeper took out the volume directly.

“Two noble ladies, look, this ‘poppy poppy’ is the best incense sold in our store.”

"There are twelve kinds of spices in total, musk is the main one, with orchid seeds, gardenia, etc., and a bright fragrance from the Western Regions as tribute."

“Many dignitaries like this product. If you buy it now, you can buy a small box for thirty taels and take it home to try.”

Shen Ningning opened it and smelled it, but she couldn't tell whether it was similar to the smell on pearls.

She turned to look at Xie Ming'an and saw that her second brother had his hands behind his back. He did not come to see this "poppy poppy", but was looking at other spices in the store.

The shopkeeper came forward and said, "Young Master, you don't like the 'poppy poppies'? Then try another one. This 'Tian Ye Xing' is also very good. It's most suitable for a person like you who is like a tree in the wind."

 Xie Mingan shook his head: "I'll take a look."

 The shopkeeper had no choice but to leave temporarily and let the two brothers and sisters make their own selections.

Shen Ningning walked to her second brother and lowered her voice: "Second brother, what are you doing? Don't you read the volume? Maybe there are clues!"

Xie Mingan glanced sideways at his sister, then reached out and pinched her small nose.

“Silly, there are so many densely packed names, how long do we have to analyze them one by one?”

 “Besides, I just took a glance and found that none of the names above are major patrons.”

"A half-black incense that can smoke pearls must have been used too much. If an ordinary wealthy family comes to buy spices, how can it leave traces on his book?"

 Shen Ningning suddenly realized.

 What Xie Mingan means is that whether dignitaries buy things like clothes or aromatherapy, they always place orders.

They are all individual bills.

 It is never recorded casually in a book like this.

 Xie Mingan picked up a touch of gardenia incense and smelled it.

 “This is for you.” He said, going to pay.

Shen Ningning opened her watery eyes and grabbed his wrist.

 “Smelly second brother, we won’t investigate anymore?”

"Check, but for this kind of thing, you have to wait for an opportunity. If you ask directly, the shopkeeper will be suspicious, and it is easy to alert the snake, so just wait."

Xie Mingan went to the counter to pay the bill. There were many guests in the shop at this time, and they were all picking spices together.

Shen Ningning was bored when she suddenly saw a familiar figure walking into the shop.

 “Mrs. Qi?” The girl blinked.

Qi Xiuwei's mother Yu Shi came in with her maid. When she looked up, she saw the delicate and delicate princess in the crowd.

She immediately stepped forward with a full smile on her face: "My wife, Princess, why are you here to pick out the spices?"

Just as Xie Ming'an returned to Shen Ningning after buying the spices, he answered right away: "Yes, Mrs. Qi is also here to buy spices? If you are an expert, why not recommend some? I want to buy something suitable for my little sister, but what? She refused to spend my money carelessly and always said it was unnecessary."

 Shen Ningning hit him with her elbow.

“Who says I can’t bear to part with it? I’m just too lazy to choose!”

Mrs. Qi smiled brightly: "You two brothers and sisters have such a good relationship. When it comes to spices, I actually have nothing to recommend. I am not an expert in this field, but our family uses 'poppy poppies'."

The two brothers and sisters looked at each other after hearing this.

Mrs. Qi didn't notice anything strange, and continued to say: "This incense has become very famous recently, and many people in Beijing are using it. It is a bit expensive, but it smells very good."

"Look, I'm just here to place a new order." After she finished speaking, the shopkeeper over there had already come over to greet her.

 At first glance, Mrs. Qi seemed to be a major customer and a regular customer, so the shopkeeper treated her warmly.

"Then I'll excuse you now." Mrs. Qi smiled and nodded, not forgetting to tell Shen Ningning: "Weier has been in a bad mood recently. I heard that there was a misunderstanding in the Su Mansion. She always listens to the princess. If the princess is free, why not go and persuade her?"

Before Shen Ningning could answer, Xie Mingan said: "My little sister was still talking about this matter just now. She has exactly what she wants. It's better to choose a different day. Let's go in a while."

Shen Ningning's eyes widened and she looked at Xie Ming'an angrily. How can you, the stinky second brother, make decisions for others?

Mrs. Qi was startled, then smiled and said: "Of course it's no problem. Just wait for me for a moment. I'll fill in the order and I'll be back."

 Seeing her walking away, Shen Ningning grabbed her second brother's arm.

 “You stinky second brother, why did you agree without even thinking about it?”

"This Qi family feels very strange to me. Qi Xiuwei seems to be the most likely person to instigate Caiyun to inform. Now various clues are related to her, so I think it is appropriate to go to the Qi family to find out the truth."

Shen Ningning sighed helplessly: "Okay."

 She just didn't expect how to face Xiaowei.

 After all, she promised that she would investigate the matter thoroughly and give Qi Xiuwei justice.

 But I don’t have a clue yet.

We went to Qi Mansion.

Mrs. Qi happily ordered the maid.

“Go and tell Weier that the princess has come to visit her, and ask her to freshen up and come to the main hall to meet the guests.”

 However, the butler came in a hurry.

He looked a little anxious: "Madam, you are finally back. Unfortunately, the old lady just died! The doctors are here, saying that the old lady is anxious and worried, so... you go and have a look!"

Mrs. Qi's face turned pale, and the brocade box she was holding fell to the ground with a bang.

She ignored the brothers Xie Mingan and Shen Ningning who were still standing in the hall, and hurriedly followed the housekeeper.

Shen Ningning frowned: "Second brother, it seems we came at the wrong time."

Xie Mingan smiled: "That's not necessarily the case."

His eyes were dark, with an inexplicable gloominess.

“Let’s go and have a look, maybe we can be of some help.”

Shen Ningning was about to say that this was not a good idea, but Xie Mingan grabbed her wrist forcefully and followed the direction of the housekeeper.

 Arrived outside the old lady's yard, and saw it full of sobbing servants.

 The cries of Mrs. Qi and Qi Xiuwei kept coming from the inner room.

 “Mother…” “Grandma…”

The doctor came out, and Mrs. Qi wiped her tears and was supported by the maid, who followed her.

The doctor shook his head and said: "Please forgive me for speaking frankly. The old lady died strangely. It is not like... ordinary birth, old age, illness and death, with bleeding from the ear holes, but more like death from a poisonous attack."

"What?!" Mrs. Qi was frightened: "Poison... Poison hair? How is it possible? We have always taken care of her very carefully. Even if the old lady has been in poor health and fell asleep, we have always taken care of her. No There might be such a problem.”

The doctor pursed his lips and said: "If you nobles are willing, you can go to Wu Zuo to investigate, and maybe you can find out the truth."

 The implication is that the corpse will be dissected.

 Mrs. Qi has no independent opinion, and she could only cry even more sadly when she heard this.

 “The old lady is really having a hard life…”

At this moment, Mr. Qi learned the news and rushed back from the government office.

 He shouted all the way: "Mother! Mother!"

When passing by Shen Ningning, Mr. Qi almost stumbled and fell because of grief, but fortunately the housekeeper supported him.

 He ran into the house crying.

Xie Mingan looked at his back and frowned in confusion.

Shen Ningning felt that she came at the wrong time.

 She tugged on Xie Ming'an's sleeve and whispered: "Brother Stinky, let's go back first. Let's come back to Qi Mansion after Xiao Wei and the others resolve the matter."

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Xie Mingan grabbed her hand and raised it.

　　He shouted: "Mrs. Qi, I have done a lot of work before, and my sister asked me to help you conduct a thorough investigation."

Shen Ningning’s round eyes widened: “Second brother, you—!”
