Chapter Seventy-Five: The Crack
If Raiko hadn't lied, then the incident would have been an extremely bad coincidence.
The second aunt was about to sit on the ground, how could she explain all this to her brother and sister-in-law.
"Later, it seems that a girl took the initiative to pick it up......" Lai Zi was about to continue, and the second aunt pounced on it with scarlet eyes and scratched Lai Zi's face a few times.
"You bastard! Thief! Not only stealing, but also full of nonsense! The second aunt didn't let Laizi continue. Even if she already knew that the people in the Xiao Mansion knew about her plan, it hadn't been exposed yet.
"Enough! Get someone out of the way for me! Grandmother Xiao thumped her cane.
"Since he confessed to stealing, send this thief to the official!" Grandmother Xiao did not mention Lai Zi's insult to Qian Xue.
Lai Zi didn't abuse this time, maybe he was shocked by the little hook snake, and quietly let his subordinates take him out of the Xiao Mansion. This time he suffered a big loss, and the yin owl in his eyes was hidden under the lowered eyelids.
In broad daylight, the fact that there was a thief in the Xiao family alarmed Xiao Yuan and Xiao Jin. When they came to Moyuanju, Laizi had already been taken away, and a few maids in the wing room were cleaning up the mess.
Xiao Shuanglin has been in her courtyard with Xiao Jin and came with her. Seeing the cousin standing beside her mother with a pale face, her mother was still whispering to comfort and persuade her.
"Mother~" Xiao Shuanglin stepped forward and shouted timidly.
"Where is the death! Let you go out for a walk and disappear without a trace! Come back with me! The flame in the second aunt's stomach seemed to have an object to vent, and it was all sprayed on her daughter at once.
Xiao Shuanglin shrank when he was scolded, his eyes were hot, but he pinched his fingers to prevent tears from falling.
"Fourth aunt, I'll go first." The second aunt carefully pulled up Qian Xue, and seeing that the other party did not refuse, she motioned Xiao Shuanglin to follow with her eyes. Gloomy left Mo Yuanju.
She had already dared to pursue Qian Xue's matter again, but Lai Zi didn't remember, and Grandmother Xiao didn't mean to expose it. This is already the best ending, if she still doesn't know each other, Qian Xue will really be ruined in the hands of her aunt.
After the second aunt left, Xiao Jin stepped forward guiltily and took Grandmother Xiao's hand and said, "Grandmother, it's the granddaughter's fault that I failed you and my father to hand over the affairs of the back house to me." I didn't even make a normal feast, and let the thieves get in. ”
Grandmother Xiao waved her hand, she was really tired after making a fuss.
"It's an accident, you've only been in charge for a short time and you're inexperienced. I have discussed with your father, you are weak, you want to cultivate more, you can divide some of the affairs of this back house and hand them over to Miss Shi. In a few days, I'll ask people to ask for a day...... There should always be a reasonable name. "For the first time, Grandmother Xiao named this in front of everyone.
Xiao Jin suddenly raised her head and said to Grandmother Xiao with a happy face: "Grandmother is sympathetic to Jin'er, and finally someone will share these troubles together." After that, he glanced ambiguously at Xiao Lei and the stone vines beside him.
Xiao Lei thought that the matter between him and Shi Manman would be delayed for a few months, but he didn't expect his grandmother to say it today. Thinking about it, he also glanced at Xiao Yuan's expression, and saw that his face was as usual and secretly relieved. His marriage to Shi Manman is settled.
"Sun Niang, help me go back. Aunt Liu will accompany Jin'er to deal with the aftermath. Grandmother Xiao's words were full of exhaustion.
Although Grandmother Xiao didn't mention that Xiao Jin did not do well, she asked Shi Manman to accompany her to share the burden, and let Liu Yemei deal with her aftermath. How could Xiao Jin, who was exquisite, not hear that her grandmother was disappointed in her.
But she still smiled and said goodbye to Grandmother Xiao, not seeing a trace of grievance, but sincerely accepting Grandmother Xiao's words.
"Can I leave things alone?" Shi Manman whispered in Xiao Lei's ear. She was very free and easy, and when she only cared about a Yalian beside her, she felt that her whole body was full of trouble. What housekeeper is going to talk about now? Trouble will drown her.
Xiao Lei shrugged his shoulders, so he wouldn't tell Shi Manman that after he really married into the Xiao Mansion, the burden on Liu Yemei and Xiao Jin would be fully handed over to her. What if this little goblin runs away for fear of trouble?
"Jin'er......" After Grandmother Xiao left, Liu Yemei stepped forward and comforted softly. Jin'er is her daughter, and she doesn't know her daughter's mood as a mother at the moment.
"Auntie, I'm fine." Xiao Jin pulled out a slightly bitter smile.
"Can't you call me mother." Liu Yemei's eyes were full of sadness, and since Xiao Jin was sensible, she never called her mother, but called her aunt bluntly.
Xiao Yuan listened to the conversation between the mother and daughter and said, "Jin'er, if your grandmother is not there, call your mother." ”
After all, Liu Yemei is not a wife, and the children born by non-wives only call the main room as their mother, but their mother can only be called an aunt. Xiao Jin is a smart child, after knowing that Grandmother Xiao has a deep opinion about her mother, in order to prevent her mother from recruiting her grandmother, she has called Liu Yemei "aunt" since then.
Xiao Jin nodded obediently, and called her mother softly, almost causing Liu Yemei to cry.
This warmth was fleeting in an instant, and Xiao Jin and Liu Yemei had to continue to watch their subordinates clean up the table, and they also had to tell what to say and what not to say in Mo Yuan's middle today.
The day seemed to slip through his fingers quickly and slowly.
Yusheng Temple.
Xiao Jin personally picked up the three large characters of Juan Xiu Lishu and carved a plaque and hung it on the courtyard gate. There was silence in the courtyard, and suddenly there was a crisp sound, like the sound of ceramics falling to the ground, and then fell into silence again.
Yunxi stood outside Xiao Jin's boudoir for nearly an hour, and every time the evening breeze blew, it took away a trace of heat from his body. She really wanted to enter the house, but Xiao Jin had instructed that no matter what movement was in the house, she was not allowed to enter without her instructions. "Smack!" There was a cracking sound, which really startled the unsuspecting Yunxi.
Just as he was about to go in and take a look, Xiao Jin's other personal maid Huan Yan grabbed Yunxi and said in a low voice, "Have you forgotten Miss's instructions?" ”
Yunxi waved away Huanyan's hand and said impatiently: "Miss is weak, if something happens, our two lives will not be enough." "I'm going to go through the door.
Huan Yan was anxious, dragged Yunxi hard, lowered his voice and said, "You don't want to die, I still want to die." At the beginning, ......" Huan Yan seemed to feel that he had said the wrong thing and immediately silenced him, when Xiao Jin's weak call came from the room.
Huan Yan didn't care about being secretly urged by Yunxi, who aroused curiosity, let go of Yunxi's hand and entered Xiao Jin's room.
As soon as he stepped into the room, Yunxi saw Xiao Jin lying on the soft bed weakly on his side, and there were porcelain fragments scattered around the bed, as if a complete porcelain had been slammed to the ground, causing the fragments to splash everywhere.
"Isn't this a blue vase given to Miss by Childe? I like it very much when I see Miss on weekdays, why is it broken? Yunxi thought secretly in his heart.
"I didn't pay attention, I touched this bottle, it's a pity. Let's clean it up. Xiao Jin said, motioning for the two to help her back to the back room.
