Chapter 66: The Hatred of the Warlord's Daughter-in-law (5)
It was very dark in the study, and Shi Lan, who jumped in in a hurry, didn't have time to check what was going on, so he grabbed the window frame for the first time, and slowly buckled it up before the soldiers noticed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
A few seconds later, the sound of footsteps outside the window sounded in unison, and Shi Lan stood still against the wall, until the footsteps were far away, she turned around and looked at the place where the original owner had only glimpsed during the tea ceremony when she was married.
The study occupies a large area, but there are very few books to be placed, and the shelves on the wall that should have placed books are filled with all kinds of ornaments, large and small.
There are two floor-to-ceiling vases that still glow even in the dark, and the landscape on the screen not far away is in the light, like a living thing flowing gently, Shi Lan snorted, skipping the screen that he had seen countless times in the patriarch's chamber since he was a child, and put his eyes on the square table with paperweights and pen holders in the center of the room.
The square table was large, with stacks of papers stacked on top of it, and papers that had not yet been cleaned up were scattered on the side.
Shi Lan tiptoed over and flipped over twice, and saw that it was just a trivial disappearance, so he was not interested in letting go.
There were several drawers on either side of the table, and Shi Lan easily opened them with a long, sharpened hairpin.
After opening, Zhu Boyan could show Shi Lan in front of Shi Lan from the treasures he had scavenged from other houses, one of the turquoise stones the size of a child's fist still had a few traces of golden color, and the peach-pink spar carved into a graceful peony was lifelike, like a real flower.
Shi Lan picked up the lifelike peony, looked curiously at the starlight through the window, and then pouted and threw it back into the box.
After looking for a desk, there was almost no place to put things in the room, Shi Lan looked around the bookshelf again, and after no result, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Shi Lan irritably circled around the large and wide table, thinking of the depth of the drawer that had just been opened, and suddenly had an idea, and raised her hand to knock on the wooden board outside the table a few times.
The strange sound made her heart swell with joy.
Shi Lan stretched out her slender fingers and rubbed them along the edge of the table.
Soon, she felt a protrusion that she wouldn't have noticed with the naked eye.
Shi Lan pursed her mouth proudly, and with a few gentle strokes of her fingers, the desk suddenly made a soft 'click' sound.
A piece of wood came loose and came off the table.
Shi Lan's eyes lit up and she reached out to pull.
There was a sudden sound of wind behind his head, and Shi Lan's heart suddenly tightened, and his body flashed more than two feet to the side.
A tall black figure appeared out of nowhere, and the sharp fist wind slid past Shi Lan's rounded arm.
Shi Lan's eyes widened in surprise, but a cold sweat broke out in his vest.
The black shadow didn't love to fight, and went directly to get the things behind the plank.
Shi Lan frowned angrily, her slender waist twisted, and her pink fist struck at the black shadow lightly.
The black shadow glanced sideways at Shi Lan, and saw that her punches were weak and her body was shaking, thinking that it was just a fist embroidered legs, and her body shape did not change at one time, and her castration was still the same.
The corners of Shi Lan's mouth suddenly grinned, his arm moved slightly, his thumb crept out from between his fingers, and the fist that was about to hit his waist and ribs suddenly turned to the life point on the back of the black shadow.
If this place is solidified, the black shadow will be half crippled if it is not paralyzed, Shi Lan squinted at the black shadow.
The black shadow also sensed that something was wrong, and was about to bend over, but the tall body hurriedly dodged to the side.
As soon as Shi Lan missed, she hurriedly avoided it, the black shadow was agile, she had only practiced alchemy for a few days, and she couldn't compare to him in terms of kung fu.
The black shadow stood still, glanced at Shi Lan silently, and clenched his big hand, as if he only regarded Shi Lan as an opponent at this time.
Shi Lan took a few steps back very quickly, glanced sideways at the side window one step away, she smiled coldly, reached out and pushed the ornaments on the shelf indiscriminately, and then rushed out of the side window one by one.
The crisp cracking sound drowned out the sound of Shi Lan squirming on the ground, and also the low curse of the black shadow's chagrin.
Almost at the same time that Shi Lan landed, the black shadow also jumped out along the window that had not yet been closed.
Not far away, the patrolling soldiers heard the sound and rushed towards it.
Under the dim sky, Shi Lan looked at the black shadow defiantly, followed the retreat path he had thought of before, and ran away without looking back.
The black shadow stood there and chuckled lowly, turned to look at the soldiers who were quickly surrounding, touched his chin, and disappeared into the darkness as well.
Ten minutes later, as soon as Shi Lan slipped back into the room, there was a noisy noise outside the door.
Shi Lan quickly took off her outer clothes, stuffed them into the quilt indiscriminately, and was just about to shout to visit the moon, when a woman with a bewitching figure broke straight in, and there were a bunch of soldiers guarding the door behind her like a thief.
"Sister still doesn't have to shout about the moon, that girl is disrespectful to me, and I have already punished my sister on behalf of me."
Shi Lan's eyes were quick, and she hurriedly pulled the hood of the blouse on the side, and when the soldier approached, she had already fastened the buckle on her chest with ten fingers.
"In the end, I can't get on the stage, I have grown so big, I haven't heard of any aunt who dares to go straight into the house of the wife of the main house, and then my girl has me to teach her a lesson, what is going on in this family, it is not the turn of an aunt to take over."
Shi Lan's contemptuous tone made Wang Yuan's pretty face turn from red to purple, and he took two deep breaths before he could barely suppress the fire in his heart, waved his hand, and the soldiers near the door immediately walked out.
Wang Yuan smiled again, walked slowly to Shi Lan, and said: "Sister doesn't know, there was a thief in the courtyard of the overseer just now, Brother Yan got up overnight to search, and I also acted on Brother Yan's orders," Wang Yuan squinted at Shi Lan, who was not moving like a mountain, pursed her lips, and continued: "Sister is demure and elegant, and the girl next to her must be reasonable, I wanted to search quietly, but I didn't want to explore the moon, this girl is not sensible, and she refuses to let people in." Brother Yan was on fire, so he ordered someone to drag her out to play the board. ”
Shi Lan listened to it and smiled coldly, "Aunt Yuan is good at arguing. How big is the Zhu family's yard? Rummaging around like this, the thief is not a fool, he didn't run out after the incident, is he still waiting for you to catch him? Shi Lan got up from the side of the bed and slowly forced towards Wang Yuan, "I haven't gotten up just now, and Tanyue stopped me to protect my name." The husband is a man, and he acts from the righteousness, and it is inevitable that he will not think of it for a while, but if you are a woman, what will happen if your reputation is ruined, can't you think of it? Could it be that you want to damage my reputation, you are a bird occupying the dove's nest? ”
Shi Lan's accusations can be big or small, if they reach Zhu Boyan's ears, Wang Yuan will have to shed his skin if he doesn't die.
Wang Yuan's face turned pale immediately, and she unconsciously took half a step back, and after realizing that she was showing weakness, she hurriedly straightened her waist, "Look at what my sister said, my sister is also worried about my sister's safety, and I am afraid that the thief will not be long-sighted and hurt my sister." In a hurry, I asked my sister for forgiveness. ”
As soon as the words fell, Wang Yuan felt that there was a fire burning in her heart, this was the first time she bowed her head to Shi Lan since she came to the Zhu family, this feeling was really uncomfortable.
Regarding her weakness, Shi Lan just glanced at her coldly and disdainfully, turned around and sat on the cushioned pier calmly, "Don't gossip, since my sister wants to search, let's hurry up, lest I can't catch the thief later, and blame me." ”
Wang Yuan smiled reluctantly, and said: "Where can I be, this is just a routine, we can still trust my sister's conduct." ”
Shi Lan stared at her coldly and didn't say a word.
Under her silent and condensed gaze, Wang Yuan was under great pressure, and wanted to quit this carved and painted house, but she felt that it was too embarrassing, so she had no choice but to hurriedly turn over it twice, which was considered to have been checked.
