Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Thief?
He Qingsong raised his glass and said: "I respect the old lady for a cup, I was entertained in Suzhou this year, and my nephew was bothered. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Mrs. Xu smiled: "It is an honor for the old man to be able to spend the New Year in the Xu family. "Raise your glass and drink.
Xu Wenyu also did the same, raised the small teacup in front of him, and said in a milky voice: "The grandson also respects the old lady with a cup." Hearing that everyone laughed, Xu Wanzhen said softly: "Yu'er, you are called grandmother, why do you also call the old lady?"
Xu Wenyu stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, "Grandmother, my grandson toasts you and wishes my grandmother good health." Old Madam Xu drank with a smile.
Xu Wanzhen presented a pair of hand-made cloud satin embroidered pine crane pattern cirrus cloud high man shoes, and said: "Grandmother, this time my granddaughter has made it for you for a while, you can try to see if it fits." Mrs. Xu took the shoes and looked at them carefully, and saw that the embroidery was exquisite, the color was calm and generous, the style was chic, and the rabbit fur was also padded to keep warm, and she couldn't put it down for a while.
Han Runiang smiled and praised: "The old lady is really blessed to have such a capable granddaughter." Presented an opal embroidered Ruyi pattern to wipe his forehead, and said: "Ru Niang's female red is far inferior to Sister Wanzhen, so I have to offer ugliness." There is a lot of disturbance here, and the old lady should not refuse. "Although the opal is valuable, the He family is not short of these silver coins, and it is also very decent and generous to give it away by Ru Niang during the New Year. The behavior of the He family made people feel like a spring breeze, and Mrs. Xu accepted it with a smile.
For a while, everyone was happy, and after the dinner, they dispersed. Xu Wanzhen and Xu Wenyu accompanied Mrs. Xu to keep the New Year, Xu Wenyu was only six years old after all, and when he first arrived, he fell asleep in Xu Wanzhen's arms, and his own nurse took him down to rest.
Xu Wanzhen gently beat Mrs. Xu's legs, talked to her, and waited for her to rest before returning to Yingyun Pavilion.
Back in her room, Xu Wanzhen took off her cloak and was about to hand it to Sang Zi, when she caught a glimpse of a blurry fingerprint in the lower right corner of the dresser. The heart jumped, and the movements in the hands paused. I remember very well that when I left, I deliberately arranged my clothes and headdress in the mirror, and the dressing table was polished from pineapple wood, which was smooth and oily, and there was absolutely no such fingerprint at that time.
Before they returned, Ge Ma prepared hot water, handed over a hot towel, and Sang Zi served her to clean her face and wash up. Xu Wanzhen slowed down her movements and slowly thought that someone must have broken into the house. What kind of person is this? Thief? Probably not, stealing should go to the treasury. If you want to seek revenge, you won't go to your boudoir. Flower thief doesn't have a good reputation for himself.
Ge Ma brought the bedclothes she wore to bed on weekdays, and Sang Zi was about to change them for her, Xu Wanzhen said softly: "It's late, you go down to rest first, I'll sit for a while and change it myself." "Fortunately, today on Chinese New Year's Eve, Mother Zheng was exempted from the daily medicinal bath.
Ge Ma wanted to say something, Sang Zi pulled her sleeve, and the two of them saluted and retreated, covering the door.
Xu Wanzhen took out a pair of sharp scissors from the basket that made female red on the side, and held it in her hand, she made up her mind, first see what this person wanted? Ling Sang Zi and Ge Ma retreated, first, they couldn't help much, and there were also sharp variables, the backyard was full of old and weak women and children, if it angered that person, it would not be good; second, that person hid in her boudoir on Chinese New Year's Eve, there must be an ulterior secret, and one more person would be more dangerous. If there is really something, it is good to bear it yourself, and if you are a human being in two lives, this life was originally picked up. Don't affect the innocent, or even the Xu family, no matter what, she always has more knowledge, and it is best for her to deal with this matter.
She turned to face the stepping bed, held the scissors tightly with her right hand and hid them behind her, and said calmly, "You can come out." ”
I saw that the bed curtain trembled slightly, and a deep man's voice sounded, with a slight smile: "You little girl has some meaning, aren't you afraid?"
For some reason, Xu Wanzhen was a little nervous, but after hearing this voice, she felt a lot more relieved, and said, "Why should I be afraid? This is my room." Those who hide their heads and show their tails are not heroic acts. ”
Hearing this, the man chuckled and stepped out of the shadows behind the bed. Xu Wanzhen only saw a tall and straight figure, dressed in a gray-black night suit, with a face covered with a scarf, and hidden in the shadows by using the light. I only saw thick eyebrows and big eyes, and my eyes were deep and focused, and I couldn't help but be a little distracted. I have met handsome guys these days, Qian Feng is an old handsome guy who has gone through vicissitudes, although he can't see his face, but looking at the muscle lines and facial features hidden under the night clothes, he should be a young muscular handsome guy.
Seeing that she was a little stunned, the man secretly compared with her previous calmness, and her stunned appearance looked so cute, this young lady was really bold and funny.
Xu Wanzhen came back to her senses and saw that he was looking at herself, her face couldn't help but be hot, and she said, "You are rude." ”
Hearing this, the man retracted his gaze, a little annoyed, how could he do such an abrupt and beautiful thing, although this beauty looks so young, and her blushing little face looks even cuter. Hurriedly apologized: "Miss, don't blame, I'll leave now." Then he went to the window.
As he walked, Xu Wanzhen realized that his leg was a little limping, and there was a dark smudge on the outside of his right leg, which he couldn't see clearly in the shadows just now. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a loud cry from afar, too far away to hear it really, as if he was arresting someone in the middle of the night. Xu Wanzhen raised her eyebrows and asked, "This is coming for you?"
The man smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, Miss, I won't bother you." ”
Xu Wanzhen said: "If you didn't come in at the beginning, you wouldn't have bothered me." Now you're going out again, and this one in and one out is bound to leave more trails. When you came in, you hid your tracks?"
The man was surprised, this young lady was really thoughtful, where was such a little girl raised in the boudoir. How did he know that Xu Wanzhen was in his thirties in his two lives combined, and although he lived carelessly in modern times, he also grew up immersed in a society with highly developed information, and it was the instinct of every modern person to collect and analyze information. Seeing that Xu Wanzhen was still waiting for his reply, she said proudly: "Miss, don't worry, no one can find out the trace of me coming in, I still have this confidence." ”
"It hurts to have self-confidence. Xu Wanzhen couldn't help but complain. Hearing this, the man secretly vomited blood in his heart, but he didn't expect to be despised by a little girl.
Xu Wanzhen didn't care what he thought, commanded him to sit down on the soft couch by the window, and said softly: "Your wound still needs to be treated again, wait a minute, I'll find you medicine." ”
The man's wound was originally an arrow wound, and in a hurry, he only had time to cut off the arrow, and tightly strangled it with a strip of cloth to prevent blood from flowing out, and the arrow was still in the wound, but I didn't expect this little girl to see that something was wrong at a glance.
