Chapter 18: There Are Thieves

The villain is so funny, is that also called stealing?

"That's not enough. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info eat together. Hua Jingwan couldn't help but laugh, walked to the table, took out the wheat rice and gently put it in front of Shen Jingyu.

Shen Jingyu was also polite, ate a few bites, looked at the wooden basin on the basin rack behind the door and said, "Sister! I forgot to tell you that I came quietly in the morning. I also gave you a wash water, if it wasn't for my mother's explanation when I came, let me not wake you up, I really want to pull you up. ”

Hua Jingwan looked at the pot, the basin contained half of the water, Shen Liu's good suddenly covered the sky like a tide, and remembered the good of the other people in the Shen family, her tears flashed, swallowed the food in her throat, and her voice became softer and softer, "Good girl!" Good job! ”

Shen Jingyu spit out her little tongue mischievously, "Sister! Why didn't you call me good before? ”

Hua Jingwan pretended to think for a while, stretched out her finger and lightly tapped Shen Jingyu's forehead, "My sister found out that you were so well-behaved before. ”

"Oh! I see! ”

As soon as she finished eating, Xiao Lianhua, who was smiling with her eyebrows, walked in with a plate of loquats, and said as soon as she entered the door: "Wanwan!" Try! Your brother picked it up along the way, but it's fresh. ”

Qiao Village is surrounded by mountains, the scenery is beautiful, the village and the village are full of fruit trees, as early as before the sedan chair, the loquat trees are full of small yellow fruits.

The people in the village are not rare, not too immature, and no one picks them in advance.

In March, the season when everything grows, in just a few days, the loquat has matured.

Among the Shen family, what Hua Jingwan doesn't like a little is Xiao Lianhua, and she always feels that she looks mean and is not easy to get along with.

Xiao Lianhua came over at this time, and she obviously felt that her intention was very clear.

Although I don't like loquat very much, the color of the loquat that I just picked is lovely, yellow and clear, and the water is smart, and Xiao Lianhua is very gracious, so I pinched one and peeled it off in my hand.

Xiao Lianhua sat down at the table, and also pinched a peel in her hand carelessly, her translucent eyes seemed to see through why Hua Jingwan went home alone, "Wanwan! Why didn't the prince come back with you? ”

As expected, as soon as he opened his mouth, he went straight to the point.

After sleeping and getting up, refreshed, extremely calm, and dealing with people is Hua Jingwan's strength, she maintained the smile of the previous second, without blinking her eyes, and said firmly: "The prince suddenly fell ill, he couldn't go to the ground, and the road was far away, so I went back to the door alone." Unfortunately, there was a heavy rainstorm on the road, and when I reached a steep place, a landslide occurred, and in order to protect me, most of the people accompanying me were injured, and I saw Qiao Village in sight, so I sent them back. ”

In the past few days, there have been several downpours in Qiao Village, and some of the paths have been covered with sand and gravel.

"It's not okay to go back to the door without a new uncle...... Xiao Lianhua bit down on the loquat slightly, frowned and said: "Then you have to leave one or two close subordinates to follow you, making you feel like you have escaped back, so embarrassed." ”

"Sister-in-law! Most of the people were injured, and their lives were at stake, and besides, they were all injured to protect me, and we can take care of whether we are wolves or not, whether they live or die. ”

These words were a little heavier, Xiao Lianhua hung her head gloomily, chewed and swallowed the loquat slowly, and said that she would clean up the dishes and chopsticks and leave.

Hua Jingwan watched Xiao Lianhua leave, relieved, but immediately had a lot of worries.

Whether the Shen family believes or not, this lie made up casually will be self-defeating in a few days.

Think about it: As she said, when the people of the palace returned to the mansion, when they learned that something had happened to the team returning to the door, why didn't the Gao family send someone to come?

Now, one step at a time!

Shen Jingyu didn't feel that Hua Jingwan was worried at all, drove the last bite of wheat rice into her mouth, innocently looked at Hua Jingwan who was still looking at the door and said, "Sister! Is the palace big? Isn't it fun? ”

Hua Jingwan was stunned and said with a smile: "Big! It's fun! But there are man-eating tigers inside. Do you want to go? ”

"There are tigers!" Shen Jingyu stuck out her tongue, her face disappointed, and her head shook like a rattle, "I'm still not going!" I heard that tigers are fierce! Eat people without spitting out bones! ”

Shen Jingyu was spoiled by Shen Bo and Shen Liu, and she was about to get married, but she was still as innocent as a little girl. Hua Jingwan bracketed the bridge of her nose, "That's it, it's better to be in our Shen family's mansion!" There are no jackals, tigers and leopards, all sheep! ”

"Sister! If the sun is out tomorrow morning, shall we sneak out and catch fish in the trolley river? ”

Around Qiao Village, there is a small river with a clear bottom, called the Cart River.

The trolley river winds around Qiao Village into the distance, deep deep, shallow and shallow. The deep ones can swim, and the shallow ones reach only the ankles. That shallow place is the favorite place for the children in the village to go fishing and shrimping.

Shen Jingyu is like a child who has not grown up, and in the past five years in Qiao Village, she has been affected by it, and she also likes to go to the river to play secretly.

Hua Jingwan, who can't swim, likes water very much, but how can she have that kind of leisure at the moment.

"Good boy! Sister is not in the mood, tomorrow you invite Uncle Wu's little daughter next door to play, sister is not going! ”

Shen Jingyu pouted, shook Hua Jingwan's hand, and said in a low voice: "Sister! That girl was only eight years old, so young and stupid that I had nothing to say to her. You're going with me! ”

couldn't help Shen Jingyu begging, Hua Jingwan said that if Ming'er was in a good mood, she would go to the river to play with her.

The next day, the weather was not in a hurry, it was a rainy weather, and Shen Jingyu did not bother Hua Jingwan.

Hua Jingwan slept for a day and two nights, sleeping until her bones were crispy, no longer staying in the boudoir, ignoring the light rain like a needle, pulling up her sleeves and trouser legs and sneaking out of the door to work with Shen Cheng in the field.

According to her thoughts, Shen Cheng didn't talk much, so it was best to deal with it. Although the ground is dirty, although tired, the heart is not tired.

After hiding outside for a day, it is inevitable that the family will sit together at dinnertime.

At this time, Hua Jingwan was most nervous, she was afraid that Shen Liu would not be able to hold back and mention Gao Xuan again, fortunately, the Shen family seemed to have a tacit understanding, including Shen Jingyu, and did not mention the word Gao Xuan.

In this way, Hua Jingwan, who had buried her pain deep in her heart, felt even more indebted to the Shen family.

At night, the sky is clear after the rain, and a bright moon hangs.

boasted about Haikou in front of Shen Bo, Hua Jingwan couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, so she went out, came to the moist steps in front of the door and sat down on her knees, thinking hard about how to make a fortune and let Shen Bo and Shen Liu live a good life.

Just as he was thinking hard, he suddenly heard a slight sound of rustling from the front yard.

There are thieves!

Her first instinct was to look for a weapon to attack, and when she turned her head to look, she saw a broom standing in front of the door.

An ordinary thief, with a burst of attacks on his head and face, still doesn't run away?

With this in mind, he took a broom and tiptoed towards the door of the second courtyard.

In front of the courtyard gate, a pomegranate tree skillfully sheltered her.

She held her breath and listened intently to the faint sound that was getting closer, her palms were sweaty from nervousness, and the broom was clenched tightly by her.

In just ten seconds, it seems like a century has passed.

The sound of footsteps stepping on the stone slab finally came to the courtyard gate, her heartstrings tightened even more, and the broom slowly raised.
