The princess is rebellious and brings space to make trouble for the villain

As he was speaking, a maid ran in hurriedly from the door.

"Miss, there's an accident in the kitchenette."

Fang Shiwan turned around and looked. Wasn't this the maid who usually burned firewood in the small kitchen?

Since her grandfather gave her a maid and a cook, she gave Ziyun a list last time, on which she assigned different tasks to each maid according to their situation.

"Bingyu, what happened in the kitchenette?"

Bingyu bowed and said, "Miss, the snacks you asked the servants to make this morning have disappeared for no reason."

"What?" Fang Shiwan was stunned for a while, "Didn't you see it?"

"Miss, the chef had already prepared the snacks today, so the servants put them in a basket and locked the door. Who knew that at the end of the day, when the servants went in to get the snacks, they found that more than half of the snacks in the basket were gone."

"Now Madam Zhang is searching everywhere in the kitchen, but she can't find it, so I hurried over to report."

Fang Shiwan and Zhou stood up and wanted to take a look.

"Wan'er, the disappearance of these snacks is a small matter, but if a thief breaks in and something happens, it will be a disaster. Let's go to the small kitchen now."

"Mom is right. Taking something without asking is stealing. That's what a thief is."

Afterwards, Fang Shiwan and Zhou hurried to the corner of the yard.

At this time, the maids were searching around in the yard. When Aunt Zhang saw that the young lady and the lady had arrived, she hurried over.

"Madam, I have searched the surrounding area and there is no suspicious person."

"Madam Zhang, are you sure?" Zhou was worried.

"Yes, ma'am. I searched the bushes and outside the yard, but I couldn't find the thief. But Dim Sum disappeared for no reason. I think this is strange."

Fang Shiwan walked into the kitchen and looked around.

When you enter the door, there are stoves on both sides and a long painted stone table in the middle, which forms an M shape as a whole. There are also two wooden shelves on the left and right sides of the door, and a large round dustpan is placed on each layer of the shelves.

There is a basket on the winnowing basket.

Things were neatly arranged everywhere, with no signs of having been turned over. After checking these, she faced the door.

"Who has been in and out of the kitchenette today?"

The maids who had been in the small kitchen all raised their hands.

"Miss, I have been in there before."

"I've been in there too."

"Miss, there are servants..."

The chef finally spoke: "I have been busy in the kitchen today."

Fang Shiwan looked at those people and nodded slightly, indicating that he understood everything.

Zhou stood aside, taking in every expression of the maids. "Tell us what you did today."

Fang Shiwan looked at Zhou. The two of them, mother and daughter, were so connected that they even thought the same thing.

"Miss, I am going in today to warm the water for you."

"The servant will go in and clean up."

"Your servant will go in and light the firewood."

"Your servant will go in and cut the vegetables."

"Your servant will go in and wash the dishes."

"I will go in and bring you food."

The maids told their errands one by one, and Fang Shiwan and Zhou listened to them carefully.

She turned around and continued to observe the house. As long as she did this, she would be able to find the flaw and find out what else was going on.

She was on the stone platform, trying to observe the fingerprints on it, but even if she found them, these people would not admit it.

Suddenly, her eyes fixed on the footprints on the ground.

"Take off your shoes."

"Ah?" The maids were puzzled.

Ziyun said, "Did you hear that? The lady said to take off her shoes. Could it be that you stole the snacks?"

"No, how could we steal? Sister Ziyun, you and I are both maids in the general's mansion. You can't wrongly accuse us."

Ziyun acted like a maid: "If you are afraid of being wrongly accused, then take off your shoes. Do you all want to be suspected?"

As soon as Ziyun said this, some of the more timid maids immediately took off their shoes, and then the other maids followed suit.

"Ziyun, Aunt Zhang, the two of you go take their shoes inside, check the footprints on the ground, be careful not to step on them, and walk to the side."

"Yes, ma'am."

Nanny Zhang and Ziyun picked up all the shoes on the ground, then carefully walked into the small kitchen and began to carefully compare the shoe prints on the ground.

Several maids were stunned when Fang Shiwan did this. When did this young lady learn how to handle cases?

Fang Shiwan looked at them with a smile, and guessed something from their eyes.

"Don't worry, I'm just trying to learn and see if I can find one or two clues."

She glanced at the maids again, but her eyes fixed on one who was shaking a little.

After a long time, she moved away.

"Miss, these footprints are indeed inside." Ziyun walked out holding the embroidered shoes she had examined.

"Okay, give it back to them."

The maids breathed a sigh of relief, thinking they were being suspected.

Nanny Zhang also came out from behind and said, "Miss, the footprints of these embroidered shoes that this old servant brought are also on it."

"Well, Aunt Zhang has worked hard, please return the shoes to them."

"Yes, ma'am."

After the maids took back their shoes, they hurriedly put them back on. After all, there was a man who was in charge of the cook in the yard.

Just when everyone was relaxing, Fang Shiwan's voice rang out again.

"Ziyun, Aunt Zhang, after you two went in, did you see any other footprints?"

"Miss, I didn't notice it."

Ziyun seemed to remember something and spoke softly, "Miss, I saw a footprint at the door. It was very strange. The tip of the toes was facing the door, but I couldn't find it inside the house."

"Oh?" Fang Shiwan looked at the trembling maid with a sly look, "Ziyun, where is she?"

"Miss, the footprints are very shallow. If I am not careful, I really won't notice them. Look."

Ziyun walked behind Fang Shiwan and pointed at her feet.

Fang Shiwan took a step back and, sure enough, saw a footprint.

"This footprint is very strange, with both feet together, which means that this person did not go in. If there are footprints inside, there must be an identical footprint inside the door."

"That is to say, this person did not go in, but just stood at the door."

As soon as she finished speaking, the trembling maid shook her body slightly.

Fang Shiwan curled his lips into a smile and pointed a finger at her, only to see her kneeling on the ground in fear.

Fang Shiwan pretended to be surprised, "Why did you suddenly kneel down?"

The maid wanted to beg for mercy, but the young lady's words made her confused. Didn't the young lady suspect her?

"Miss, my servant...my legs are a little numb."

"Really? Stand there for a while. Once I catch the thief, you can sit down."
