Therefore, no matter how their masters beat or abused them, they could not muster the slightest resistance, as their entire families belonged to the Feng family.
But they are human too, so they will have painful emotions, and at this time they can only confide in each other, nothing more.
Gu Xin looked at Que'er and Ying'er. The two maids didn't seem to be lying, but when the two maids returned to Miss Feng's room from the kitchen last night, Miss Feng didn't know.
Therefore, the two of them testified to each other, and there was no third person who could testify for them.
If the two of them wanted to do something along the way, it would be very easy, since no one else would know.
Gu Xin didn't say much for the time being, but just told them to wait aside.
“Princess, everyone is here, and you have finished asking your questions. Do you have any leads?” Yun asked when she saw that Gu Xin remained silent.
"Not for now," Gu Xin replied truthfully, then glanced around at the women of the Feng family. "Everyone, please don't wander around for now. Stay in this side room. I might need to ask you something at any time. Also, it's best not to stay alone together; please keep each other company."
“Yes, Your Highness.” Madam Yun nodded heavily and assured her, “I will take good care of them.”
"Then I'll have to trouble Mrs. Feng." Gu Xin nodded.
After questioning the women of the Feng family, it was almost noon.
At this moment, Bai Er also returned, along with Gu En, whom he hadn't seen for more than two months.
"Third sister, what luck you have! You were just about to go home, and you still managed to run into a case!" Gu En, dressed in a lake-blue long gown, looked refined and gentle, but her words were teasing and not serious at all.
"Haven't seen you for months, and you've learned to make fun of people! Do you dare to make fun of me in front of my uncle when you go back?" Gu Xin laughed.
"No, no, I was just kidding, I was just kidding." Gu En quickly waved his hand.
No one can say anything bad about the Gu family's daughters to their father, not even the Gu family's sons.
If his dad finds out, he'll probably get a beating from him.
"Did you arrive this morning or last night?" Gu Xin asked, pulling on Gu En's collar.
"I arrived last night, almost at dawn, so I didn't go to see you. I stayed at an inn. This morning, after I woke up, I went to the yamen to see Lord Liu, and that's when I ran into Bai Er. So I came along with you," Gu En explained.
He was born at the end of the year, and Gu Xin was born at the beginning of the year. The two were less than a year apart, but Gu Xin was very self-aware as an older sister.
Gu En also enjoys being taken care of by her older sisters, and of course, she is also used to being abused and bullied by them.
"Then why not rest in the city for a day?" Gu Xin asked.
“I’ve gotten used to being out and about these past two months, and it doesn’t really matter whether I rest or not. I was just worried you wouldn’t be able to solve it today, and besides, I’m really curious about how you solve cases! That brat Renren told me about several cases and even firmly stated that I’m dumber than you. So, I just wanted to come and see for myself,” Gu En said helplessly.
If he hadn't received Gu Ren's letter, he probably wouldn't have leisurely set off from Jiangnan until June. But Gu Ren said he had already told his father that he was going home with Gu Xin, so he had no choice but to return ahead of schedule.
Another reason is that Gu Ren said that if he went home with his third sister this time, he would definitely encounter someone and something very important in his life. Anyway, he said it in a very mysterious way, and he didn't know why he believed it.
