Chapter Twenty-Eight: Bi-Monthly Money

There was a little silence in the flower hall, and then Mama Huang's old voice sounded. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Back to the second wife, the old slave was indeed on the flowers and trees. It was because half a month ago, Mama Li, who was originally in charge of the treasury, was sent by her wife to take care of the eldest girl's dowry Zhuangzi, and there was no suitable person, so the old slave was brought up. Who came up with such a thing, the old slave was wronged! ”

After she finished speaking, she cried more and more sadly, no matter whether she was caught or not, her crime would be decided, and if she didn't get it right, she would have waited for a lifetime of honor, and there would be no follow-up.

Yu Xiaoling was sad for her, this Mama Huang is supposed to do her best. But after all, she is old, and it is possible that she will not check it for a while.

Seeing that Mama Huang couldn't ask why here, Cheng sighed and clicked on Rouyun again.

"Girl, the head of Hong Yagu, has you ever taken it out recently? When was the last time you saw it? ”

Cheng's question is the key, otherwise the things in the warehouse will be put away for a few months, and I will find it now, and I don't know when I lost it!

Rouyun remembered this matter clearly, and she said, "Back to the second wife, it was three days ago. That day, the girl suddenly remembered the face, so she took it out and looked at it. ”

After she finished speaking, she quickly glanced up at Cheng. However, she avoided Cheng's gaze at this glance, but fell into Yu Xiaoling's eyes.

"On that day, who saw the head of that Hong Yagu?" Cheng asked again with a frown.

"Mrs. Hui, the girl likes that face very much, and took it out to make the maids and women in the courtyard have long eyes."

Wealth is not exposed, and smugness is not rampant.

This is a truth that even Yu Xiaoling understands, but Yu Sang, a smart person, has committed a taboo.

Cheng obviously didn't think of this, but he just felt that it was a matter of the past few days, and it was easier to find out.

"Go and call all the people who saw Aunt Hong's face that day." Cheng spoke.

After a while, Yu Sang's maids-in-law, all who were on errands that day, were called. Along with them, there were also Liao's mother and daughter and Cui's mother and daughter.

Are they all here to see a good show? Yu Xiaoling also frowned.

Cheng naturally wanted to let Liao take a seat, but Liao said he didn't want to, only said that he was old, and he sat behind and watched. Cheng was reluctant, so he had to let a few people from the Liao family watch her find out the matter as if they were listening to the government.

With the Empress Dowager who listened to the government, Cheng, the temporary emperor, naturally couldn't sit steadily, and the momentum that had risen by three points also disappeared. Yu Xiaoling looked at it and sweated for her.

Everyone is here, but Cheng still repeats the old saying, it is best to let people take the initiative to explain it.

But since he had the courage to steal the entire carved box, he was naturally not afraid of Cheng's two scaring words, and they all said that they didn't know, and they didn't dare to move this thought.

The investigation is a little unbearable, except for the sound of breathing one after another in the flower hall, it is quiet and dull, even if there is a muffled thunder, it is better than looking at each other like this.

Cheng didn't feel like talking, but she always felt that both the Liao family and the Cui family were staring at her, which made her mind a little confused.

Liao coughed lightly before Cheng came back to his senses. She thought for a while, and then asked, "Since they all said they didn't know, then let me ask you again, have you found anything strange about the people around you in the past two days?" There is a reward for reporting, and the same crime is covered. ”

That's right.

Although Cheng's temperament is weaker and his brain is not very bright, in the end, he is from everyone's background, and he has seen some things.

As soon as she said this, the bottom was obviously different from Fang Cai, and some people began to glance around, Cheng Shi looked at the play, and added fire: "Report the useful, and reward double the monthly money!" ”

Her words led the people below to come alive, and after a while, one of them knelt on the ground and said straightly: "Second wife, the slave has something to say!" ”

Yu Xiaoling looked at it fixedly, she was a small girl. But there are too many girls in this room, Yu Xiaoling's slight face blindness can only be distinguished by looking at the old and young, tall and thin, as for the face, it can only be distinguished by those close to her.

Therefore, she didn't see who it was, but she listened to this person: "Second wife, the slave maid and Huamei are in the same room, and she has not been right for the past two days!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a sharp voice shouting, "Liu Mu, you framed me!" Second wife, don't listen to her! ”

As the two spoke, their eyes widened, looking at the situation, and maybe they were going to do it immediately.

Cheng couldn't let the slaves and maids come nonsense, so he shouted "Stop" and let the two of them pull apart.

"You two talk about it one by one, this Liu Mu will say it first!" Cheng spoke.

Liu Mu was the first to report, and as soon as she heard Cheng let her say it first, she hurriedly said: "Back to the second wife, when the eldest girl took out her head and face that day to let the slaves and maids have long eyes, the flower eyebrows were wrong." She also asked Sister Chasing Yun vigorously, what is the red stone embedded in it! This matter, Mrs. asked Sister Chaiyun to know. ”

Chaiyun is Yu Sang's second-class maid, as soon as she heard Liu Mu mention her, she didn't wait for Cheng's question, and hurriedly replied: "Second Mrs. Hui, this is indeed the case." ”

Cheng nodded, and asked Liu Mu again: "Is there anything else?" ”

"Back to the second wife, yes. When the slave saw Sister Rouyun and sent it back to the warehouse, Hua Mei stared at it in the corner of the wall, and followed it for a while! Later, in the evening, Huamei and I finished sweeping the yard and sprinkling water, and I went back to the room, but Huamei said that someone was looking for her and went to the back door.

On the second day, after dinner, she went out again, and when the slave and maid asked her, she said that she had gone to eat, and she had gone for a long time before returning. But when she returned, the slave saw that she was a little flustered.

And then today, Sister Rouyun asked around, who has seen the head in the carved box, and she is uncomfortable when she speaks.

The slave knows this, and hopes that the second wife will see it. ”

Liu Mu Yixi spoke very quickly, and Yu Xiaoling listened attentively, so he reluctantly followed.

After she finished speaking, Hua Mei howled twice and "wronged", and was covered by Feng Chun.

"So, Huamei is suspicious? Who knows what, let's tell. Cheng nodded, but her eyes looked at Hua Mei, and her eyebrows were twisted into a ball.

She couldn't have regretted it more.

In the first place, he shouldn't have coveted a temporary convenience and accepted this maid.

This flower eyebrow is not someone else, it is the little girl who brought it that day, her eyes are purring, and even Yu Xiaoling feels that she is unreliable.

Yu Xiaoling didn't recognize her, but Cheng did.

Whoever is not good, it is her. If there is really a leak from here, it's good that Hong Yagu can get it back, but if she can't find it, I'm afraid that my two points similar to Hong Yagu's head will not be able to keep it.
