Since he asked the servant to come to thank him, Xu Ting was sure that he was going to leave the Jin Mansion and go home. When Linglong's mood calmed down, he thought about finding Xu Tingshen to get the pencil case and fan cover back.

She is not a mother-in-law and mother-in-law, and Xu Tingshen doesn't look like the kind of boring person who takes the things given by the girl and shows off everywhere, but she just doesn't want to be misunderstood, let alone misunderstood by Xu Tingshen.

No matter what the relationship with the Xu family ends up with, she doesn't want Xu Tingshen to mistakenly think that she has anything to do with him, not only about the girl's family's reputation, but more importantly, she is really not interesting to him.

I couldn't move around during the day, and finally at night, Linglong changed into her night clothes and quietly left the Golden Mansion.

Dawu Dynasty Guotai and Min'an, although there are provisions for night ban, but the implementation is not strict, many places have existed in name only, although there are still in the capital, but it is also limited to the inner city, after a watch, the inner city is dark, the outer city is brightly lit, and the night is singing. Officials were able to enter and leave the city after the night curfew, and even out of the city. In other words, the ban on this night is the ordinary people.

There are very few people on the streets, and some of them are also the carriages and horses of officials, and they have a high-sounding name when they travel after the night curfew: busy with official business.

As for whether to go to the restaurant and teahouse in the outer city to be busy with official business, or to go to Fireworks Willow Lane to be busy with official business, then no one dares to ask.

Linglong is not familiar with the capital, but the thieves have their own set of methods. After a while, she found two lonely little beggars, who were going to go to the fireworks street in the outer city before the first watch, but they were young and slow, and they were already forbidden at night if they did not leave in time, and they did not dare to walk on the street, so they had to hide in a broken wall.

Linglong soon inquired from them about how the Xu Mansion had left. She was originally worried that she would have to leave the city when she went to Xu's mansion, but it turned out that the Xu family bought a new house in the city last year, and the Guozi priest and the wine Lord Xu moved from Wangdu outside the city to the city.

Linglong didn't stop, and according to the direction pointed by the little beggars, it took half an hour to come to the outside of the Xu family's new house.

Along the way, I met two or three night patrols, but she was light and agile, and she disappeared in three flashes and two flashes, and those people thought they were dazzled.

Jumping in from the wall of Xu's mansion and seeing that there was no one who had alerted the night vigil in the mansion, Linglong breathed a sigh of relief, and looked around for Xu Tingshen's residence.

The Xu family has another mansion in Wangdu, and his family is a scholar and a low-key person, so the new house in the city is not big, just an ordinary five-entry house.

Linglong has her own way of finding a place to find people, and it didn't take long to find the courtyard where the young masters lived.

Most of the Xu family had not yet fallen asleep, and there were lights in the yard, and lights were also shining in the house, and people could be seen in the windows from the outside.

She hid in the dark shadow and heard a mother-in-law say to a little girl: "That cup of ginseng and qi chicken soup is served out again, why don't you persuade the second master to drink it?" ”

The little girl was a little aggrieved: "Mother Cheng, I have already persuaded you according to what you said, but the second master just smiled and didn't move." ”

Cheng's mother is obviously a powerful one, and she pointed at the girl's brain, and scolded: "You useless hooves, you usually make waves in front of you, and you can only do this and that, you really can't count on it." ”

The little girl burst into tears, Cheng's mother snatched the stew pot in her hand, and walked into the room on the side of the porch.

Linglong secretly wrote down the location of the room, and waited patiently on the roof. It wasn't until the second watch that the lights in Xu Tingshen's house finally went out.

After waiting for a while, Linglong quietly came down from the room, flicked a hairpin on the window a few times, and jumped in like a tanuki.

The Xu family's house rules are very strict, there is no maid on duty in Xu Tingshen's house, only a small servant, like the one who goes to deliver the letter, he is very young, sleeps sweetly, and snores evenly, Linglong walks by his side, and he doesn't notice it at all.

The window was pasted with Korean paper, and the moonlight came in, and Linglong searched everywhere on the bookcase and in the drawers, and even a few clothes on the hangers were rummaged through, money bags, purses, jade pendants, and a lot of useless things, but there were no fan covers and pencil cases embroidered by her.

Linglong was unwilling to return empty-handed, tiptoed to the shelf bed, lifted the curtain, and saw Xu Tingshen lying with his face facing in.

The moonlight did not shine into the curtain, and it was difficult to see clearly, and Linglong did not dare to light the fire, so she had to grope in the darkness little by little. The first time she went out, she found that it was not easy to be a thief in ancient times, there was no flashlight, and there was no other lighting equipment, which was a real headache.

Fortunately, her eyes quickly adapted in the dark, but she saw that there seemed to be something glowing with a faint luster next to Xu Tingshen's pillow, which was the unique luster of light-colored silk in the dark.

Linglong was overjoyed, and reached out to take the thing over to take a closer look, it was the pencil case she embroidered.

This Xu Tingshen is also really, he actually put this thing next to the pillow, and Linglong didn't have time to think about it, so he saw the fan cover again.

It's a pity that it's empty joy to see it, the fan cover is actually in Xu Tingshen's hands!

Linglong remembered that when she was a child, she envied other people's dolls, and one day the master gave her one, and she was so happy that she had to hold it in her arms when she slept.

Didn't Xu Tingshen treat the two things she embroidered as dolls?

But the question is, how can she take the fan cover out of Xu Tingshen's hand?

"Wolves, wolves!"

Suddenly, an exclamation came, which startled Linglong, and Xu Tingshen on the bed also woke up, and at the moment he got up, Linglong had already fallen backwards, rolled on the spot, and rolled to the window.

Xu Tingshen could only shout: "What's wrong? ”

asked twice, and the little guy on duty outside sobbed and replied: "It's okay, second master, I'm fine, I'm dreaming." I dreamed of a big bad wolf chasing me. ”

Linglong sighed, this bear child, don't you know that there is a thief in the house, and a big bad wolf.

There was a sound of clothes rustling, Xu Tingshen seemed to get up, Linglong knew that this was not a place to stay for a long time, she took the pencil case into her arms, quickly jumped out of the window, and jumped to the roof of the house with her body turned over and over.

When she went into the room, she was stunned.

I saw that under the bright starry sky, a person was squatting on the roof looking at her, not like looking at the stars here, but as if he was waiting for her, and he had been waiting for her for a long time.

It was only an instant that both of them recognized each other.

"Is that you?"

"It's you!"

This person is none other than the night walker I met in Jinjiayuan last time, and it is really a coincidence that he can also meet him in the Xu family.

"Little thief, you stole something from Xu Lao's second house, take it out and take a look."

Linglong understands in seconds, this person is waiting here, not to renew the old with her, but to eat black.
