A group of people carried lanterns and walked towards Luyupu, although there were more than a dozen people in front and back, but there was no sound of speech at all, only the sound of gentle footsteps. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Brother Ying was still a little scared at first, I didn't know what kind of interrogation would be there for a while, but after walking for a long time, my spirit relaxed, and I was afraid that I was gone, and I was in the mood to look around and look at the scenery on both sides. Qingyue, who was walking in front of her, suddenly looked back at her, "I don't know if I'm alive or dead." ”

Brother Ying glanced at her indifferently, and then turned his head to look at the large unknown red flowers planted on the side of the stone road, reflecting the clear light of the full moon, glowing with a bewitching red light, on the right hand side is actually a silver glittering lake, there is a bamboo bridge built on the water, winding past, there is a pavilion in the lake, and only an outline can be seen in the distance.

Oh my God, the backyard of the General's Mansion is about to catch up with the small landscape park, and the greening is good, Brother Ying sighed while walking, he has been nesting in the firewood house for more than half a month, and he thought that the whole house was the kind of house made of wood and stone, but he didn't expect to have such a good view.

When a group of people walked for a quarter of an hour, they finally stopped in front of a courtyard gate, the white stone courtyard gate, with a plaque hanging on it, the four words "green jade shengxiang" in Liuyun font, Qingyue turned back to them and ordered, "Wait here, I'll go in and report." He pushed the door open and went in.

In the middle of the night, the courtyard door was wide open, the lights inside were brilliant, and Qingyue's voice came from inside, "Take her in." There were only two women, carrying her inside, and the others were still standing outside waiting.

Brother Ying was carried into the courtyard, and as soon as the two women let go, they threw her onto the gravel road and stood sideways respectfully.

Plantains are planted everywhere in the yard, a stone path leads to the main house, under the corridor of the main house, there is a small wooden table, a few fresh fruits are placed on the table, a woman about twenty years old, dressed in white civilian clothes, holding a simple bun, with a simple pearl hairpin on her head, sitting at the table, one hand on her cheeks, one hand shaking a fan, is looking at her with interest, behind a row of girls and old mothers.

Qingyue stood beside the woman, looked at Brother Ying, and shouted, "Don't kowtow to the young grandmother soon." ”

Brother Ying hated this place in his heart, kneeling down to others at every turn, and not giving New Year's money, what is the kowtow? But people were under the eaves, and there was no way, so they knelt there, bent down and bowed their heads, "I've seen the big young grandmother." ”

"What's your name?" The eldest grandmother opened her mouth to ask, but she didn't expect her voice to be very kind.

"Uh, Brother Ying." Brother Ying almost said his original name, but fortunately he reacted temporarily.

"On that day, you came to our yard to collect clothes, and you saw a string of pearl chains?" The tone was smooth and undulating, as if it were small talk.

"I don't see it." Brother Ying replied coldly.

Seeing Brother Ying so hard, the young grandmother was a little happy, "Then, have you ever entered my house?" ”

"I haven't been in."

"Hehe," the young grandmother shook her fan, turned back to a woman standing next to her, and said, "Mother Wang, do you think she looks like a lie?" ”

The woman was standing in the shadows, and when she heard the question, she hurriedly took a step forward and replied, "This slave can't see it, and it has to be decided by the young grandmother." ”

The eldest young grandmother tilted her head, as if chatting with her, and said, "July 12, this is the birthday of the crown princess, the first few days, the eldest lady rewarded me with a skirt of snow silk and silver thread painted peony, let me wear it to the crown princess for her birthday, I thought, that is, the white dress, with other jewelry is not good-looking, it must be matched with good pearls to be outstanding, especially called Qinglian to take out the box containing pearl jewelry, I want to find the string of Nanzhu and jade rhombic flowers that the eldest young master entrusted people to bring back in the South China Sea, I am trying clothes with Qinglian, but Qiao'er, The eldest lady came to me to ask for something important, I hurried over with Qinglian in a hurry, forgot to put the box away, and when I came back later, the string of Nanzhu was gone. ”

"Yes. The slave also heard the girl say that this is what happened. The woman obviously didn't know why the young grandmother suddenly talked about how things were lost, and she didn't dare to say more, but waited respectfully beside her.

"At that time, in the house, if you want to say how it is so coincidental, there is no one, and when I asked the little girls, they all said that they didn't even see a figure, so I asked the girls to inquire, who came? A girl said that she had seen this girl in the laundry room. But in my opinion, not necessarily, it has something to do with this little girl, Mother Wang, what do you mean? The young grandmother shook her fan and spoke slowly and coherently, looking at the woman as she spoke.

"The young grandmother is clear." And when the woman had said this, she said no more.

"I said, don't you listen to what I'm saying?" The young grandmother picked up the teacup and moistened her throat, "My beads, put in my room, usually only these big girls have to enter my room, she is an outsider, not to mention the door, even if she passes under the window, someone has to ask her, and then say, my box, pearls of various colors, gems are full of all at once, the string of pearls, although the texture is good, but the beads are not very big, you have to know a little bit to know that it is a good thing." She's a rough little girl, how many pieces of jewelry have she seen? How do you know that the most valuable string is taken, so the thief who steals things must be a knowledgeable person, Mother Wang, do you think what I said is reasonable or not? ”

"Grandma Bing Xue is smart, if you want to say that, this thief is still missing, that girl, she has been wronged." said, pointing at Brother Ying, "Brother Ying, I heard that you have been wronged and have a serious illness?" ”

Brother Ying didn't know how to answer, but with red circles under his eyes, he secretly pinched his thighs again, and the tears were like beads with broken threads, crackling and falling.

"Oh, poor man, I sulked in vain." The woman looked at Brother Ying'er and shed tears, and said on the side.

The eldest grandmother shook her fan and said, "What an ambitious child, okay, don't cry, I know you have been wronged." Turning his head and telling Qingyue, "Send them back in a while, tell their heads, don't give her grievances, and when Ming'er recovers from her illness, call her up to do fine work, don't stay in the laundry room." ”

Qingyue bowed her head and said, "Yes." ”

The woman hurriedly said to Brother Ying, "Don't you thank Grandma Da Shao soon." ”

Brother Ying sobbed, "Thank you, Grandma." ”

The woman leaned forward again and asked the young grandmother in a low voice, "Then this bead has not yet landed, and the eldest lady asked, how can I go back?" ”

"Hmph, although there are hundreds of people in the backyard of our house, but the one who escaped out of my heart, walking without breathing, looking like a good person outside, and so on to peel off that layer of human skin, only to know that it is just a little ghost, in front of whom to be the master Mrs., this matter is so quiet today, and when I catch the handle in the future, the new account and the old account are calculated together, Mrs. let me take care of the house, don't let the next person say that I didn't calculate in my heart, sold the thief master, and only took the little girl's head to the cylinder. Okay, it's so late, Mother Wang, you can also go back and rest, since it has nothing to do with this little girl, go back to Mrs. as it is, Mrs. naturally has a score in her heart. ”

"The slave knows." Mother Wang was silent and respectfully agreed.

"Everyone else is gone." The young grandmother got up, helped a girl beside her, and turned into the house. The others also quietly dispersed.

The two women next to him came over and helped Brother Ying up, and someone went up to pounce on the dust on his pants, and his attitude changed drastically.

A woman walked up to her, "Brother Ying, Miss Qinglian told you to go back and take care of it, and I will go to see you after a while, talk to you, and don't be sad about this incident." ”

Who is Qinglian? It's also the girl of the young grandmother, is it someone that Brother Ying knows?

Brother Ying didn't know what was going on here, so he just leaned over and replied, "Thank you, Miss Qinglian, for me." ”

followed the two women next to him and went back to the laundry room.
