231: Artifact

For Xia Ruan, whether it is Mother Wan or Fennel, they are all thorns in her eyes.

Now someone is helping her remove one, which is a good thing for her.

She wasn't going to meddle in it.

Du Lan and Ai Ye didn't move, just looked at Xia Ruan quietly, waiting for her to command.

Xia Fucheng was slightly displeased, and slapped the table heavily: "What?" I can't call you? Are you the master, and I am the subordinate? ”

Duran and Ai Ye quickly knelt on the ground, not daring to raise their heads.

"Why do you bother with these little things?" Li Shi frowned, "Duran, you and Ai Ye get up and go to Fennel's house to search, and bring everything you find." ”

Xia Fucheng looked at his wife in surprise, is this a trivial matter?

He couldn't help but snort coldly.

Li spoke, and Duran and Ai Ye stood up from the ground.

The six sons left after Duran and Aiye, and the room suddenly fell silent.

Xia Ruan looked at the tea cup in his hand indifferently and smiled shallowly.

When her father appeared, she kept wondering who had passed the word on her father and told him about it. The little maids and maids in this house have been changed by her, and who is the person who dares to do this now? Even if someone dares to do these things, Jia Hei should know that Jia Hei is taking care of him by his father's side.

But judging from the attitude of Jia Hei and Liuzi just now, she didn't see Jia Hei at all. Jia Hei is a person who is not good at disguising himself, and it seems that Jia Hei doesn't know about this matter at all. In other words, there is a hidden collector in this house.

Xia Ruan glanced at his father thoughtfully. What's going on in this person's mind?

Maybe from the moment Xia Wen returned to the house, that person made countless small movements behind his back.

Xia Ruan's hand holding the tea cup tightened a little tighter, she wanted to see what tricks Mother Wan and Xia Wen could play today.

Xia Wen kept crying beside Xia Fucheng, Xia Fucheng listened for a while, and said impatiently: "Don't cry, do you still look like the fourth lady of the Xia family?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Xia Fucheng realized that he had said the wrong thing. Such words detracted from the image he had carefully pretended to be, so he sighed and defended. "You have to look like a young lady. What does it look like to cry all day long, the second uncle will find out about this matter and give you justice. ”

Xia Wen was stunned for a moment, then stopped crying and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes aggrievedly.

Such an action fell in Xia Ruan's eyes. It became a joke.

My father was a man with poor patience. Now you have to pretend to be a loving father. It was really a little difficult for him. Xia Ruan was suddenly curious about how that person had persuaded his father to change, if it was just his grandfather......

Probably unlikely.

"Wen'er knows." Xia Wen slowed down for a while before answering Xia Fucheng. There was a hint of resentment in his eyes.

This damn lame man, if it weren't for the fact that he was still useful, she would have ......

Xia Wen bit her lower lip and stopped talking.

It took almost a long time for tea before Duran and Ai Ye returned from Fennel's house. Duran carried an autumn-colored baggage, and then placed it on the small table not far from Xia Ruan.

Xia Fucheng saw the two maids doing this, and his face was a little blue.

In the eyes of these subordinates of the Xia family, it seems that Xia Ruan has subconsciously regarded Xia Ruan as the master of the Xia family.

However, he was still alive, but these people were already thinking of him as if he was dead.

Xia Fucheng clenched his fists and took a deep breath.

"What's in this baggage?" Xia Fucheng said lightly, "Take it ......"

Before Xia Fucheng finished speaking, Li had already opened the burden.

Xia Fucheng's eyes widened in surprise, his usually docile wife would actually go against his will at this time.

Since when did the wife change?

Xia Fucheng was a little uneasy in his heart, when he was in Dongyang County in the past, what he said, his wife never dared to refute half a sentence. But later, his wife gradually changed, and she liked to talk back to him, and even did things that made him unhappy.

Over the years, he wanted to take a concubine, but his wife felt uncomfortable, so she found all kinds of excuses to gag him. Xia Fucheng is already a little uncomfortable in these things, and now the maids, maids and mothers-in-law in the house almost only have their daughters and wives in their eyes, and they completely lose him as a family.

Xia Fucheng was naturally angry in his heart, but reason told him that he had to be patient at this moment.

Otherwise, everything he has done will be wasted.

Xia Fucheng turned his head to look at the blue and white porcelain vase resting not far away, this is the best porcelain. Even Xia Wen's house has such furnishings? But his house was a little empty. Although he dropped a lot of things, Xia Fucheng knew in his heart that the things that were placed in his house were fakes, and every time he saw a room full of fakes, he felt a nameless anger in his heart.

People outside say that the Xia family and the Nan family are about to be able to stand side by side, who is the Nan family? The Nan family is the richest family in Kyoto, and it is one of the top merchant families in Great Qin. What qualifications does the Xia family have to compare with the Nan family? Moreover, he is the master of the Xia family and the head of the Xia family, who would believe it when he says it, everything in his house is a fake. Xia Fucheng knew that these must be his daughter's ideas.

The change of wife is somewhat due to the daughter.

Xia Fucheng turned his eyes to look at his daughter, how could he have such an unfilial daughter? Now, as long as she marries out earlier, as long as she is ......

Everything will be the way it used to be.

Thinking of this, Xia Fucheng's mouth had a sly smile on the corner.

Li Shi flipped the burden for a while, and she didn't see anything valuable in the baggage, she looked at Duran and Ai Ye: "Is this the burden?" ”

"Back to Madame, there is just such a burden in the house, and everything else is some gadgets." Ai Ye quickly replied, "The slave maid and Sister Duran have been searched, and there is nothing else. ”

Fennel looked at Mother Wan proudly, with a sneer in her eyes.

Mother Wan smiled helplessly: "Madam, if fennel hides the silver in an obvious place. Don't all the people in the house know? She was not hiding in her room, but somewhere else. The old slave knows where. ”

Fennel was stunned when she heard this.

Li looked at Mother Wan with some amusement: "How do you know where it is?" ”

"The old slave was indeed a little surprised when he saw the silver in Fennel's hand that day." Mother Wan looked at Fennel and said seriously, "So the old slave deliberately followed Miss Fennel...... That night, the old slave watched as the Fennel girl buried the silver under the peach tree in the courtyard. ”

As soon as the words fell, Fennel immediately retorted: "You are talking nonsense. ”

"Whether the old slave is talking nonsense or not, Madame will find out when she goes and sees." Mother Wan kowtowed heavily to Li, "Madam." If the old slave tells half a lie. It will not be good to die. ”

Fennel was a little panicked, and she hurriedly defended: "The slave maid didn't hide the silver under any peach tree, Mother Wan has wronged the slave and maid, if the slave maid has so much silver." Why should the slave continue to be a subordinate in the Xia family? ”

Mother Wan answered with a smile: "In the eyes of Miss Fennel." Is it a shame to be a subordinate in the Xia family? ”

"You ......," Fennel glared at Mother Wan. You're using strong words. ”

Li Shi heard a rough idea, and she stood up from her chair: "Under the peach tree?" Aiye, go and see. ”

This time, the Li family walked out first. Xia Ruan and Du Lan followed closely behind, leaving Xia Fucheng in the house.

Xia Fu trembled with anger, his wife did this, it was a little too much.

Can his wife take him seriously now?

Xia Fucheng subconsciously put his hand on his crippled leg, if his legs were not wasted, maybe everything would be different?

He secretly wondered in his heart why his eldest brother did such a thing in the first place, why he ruined his leg.

"Sixth son, Jia Hei, help me out." Xia Fucheng thought for a moment before saying, "I'm going to take a look." ”

Liuzi and Jia Hei nodded and helped Xia Fucheng up.

His legs were not strong, and he couldn't walk half a step at all without someone to support him.

Compared to the charcoal fire inside the house, it is naturally much colder outside.

Xia Fucheng shivered coldly, and then looked in the distance, his wife and daughter stood on the edge of the peach tree, watching Ai Ye turn over the soil with a small hoe.

"Second uncle."

Xia Fucheng listened to Xia Wen calling him, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xia Wen behind him, only to see the little girl holding the fox fur coat he had just taken off: "It's cold outside, you put it on." ”

After Xia Fucheng heard this, he only felt a warm heart.

He turned his head to look at his daughter standing beside his wife, and felt a little sad in his heart for some reason.

When he was young, his daughter would always call him softly by his side, 'Daddy, Daddy', but now his daughter is becoming more and more estranged from him.

In this house, it seems that his daughter is the head of the Xia family, and his existence seems to be just a joke.

Xia Wen stood up and put the fox coat on Xia Fucheng, "Second uncle should pay attention to his body, if he doesn't wear warmth, he will get cold." ”

"You girl." Xia Fucheng couldn't help but smile, "Second Uncle knows, don't worry, Second Uncle won't let you be wronged." This is the Xia family, the second uncle's home, and yours, you know? ”

Xia Wen smiled slightly: "Wen'er knows." ”

"That's good." Xia Fucheng nodded with satisfaction, turned his eyes and stopped at Ai Ye's movements.

Li Shi looked at the jar under the peach tree, and his face was a little surprised: "Take it out." ”

Fennel and Mother Wan stood behind her, and Fennel's face turned pale.

Why did Mother Wan know what she had done, she panicked in her heart.

Xia Ruan looked at Li and smiled: "Mother, have you ever seen this jar?" The daughter felt that it seemed to ...... Where have you seen it? ”

Li Shi listened and was slightly surprised.

When her daughter said this, she did feel that this jar was indeed somewhat familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.

But where, exactly? Lee, however, could not remember. (To be continued......) (To be continued......)
