011 Stealing from the Owner
Another day has passed, and tomorrow will be the fourteenth birthday of Hua Langying, and the prime minister's mansion is busy with his feet not touching the ground, and the red rouge and green bamboo are also busy.
After all, it is the birthday of the prime minister's beloved daughter, and there is no need to have a banquet, and the invitations have been sent out, and at noon, the people of Liufu, who are in-laws, have arrived, and they are all helping to make points, and they have to stay here today.
Red Rouge has already followed Zhou's mother to greet the people of Liufu, and only Luzhu is busy with Hua Rongying's side, she is packing up Hua Rongying's makeup box and clothes, ready to choose tomorrow's dress.
Lu Zhu opened the makeup box and asked, "Miss, the lady of the dress has already been made and delivered, what accessories does Miss want to wear tomorrow?"
Hua Rongying said casually: "It's just anything else, you can prepare the pair of carved red gold bracelets given by my mother, and I will bring them tomorrow." The rest is up to you. ”
When Lu Zhu heard that it was a red gold carved bracelet, she chuckled in her heart, and her mind immediately thought of the bracelet on the hand of the red rouge under the moon, and she made another cut in her heart.
After speaking, Hua Langying raised his feet and went out, leaving a sentence: "Luzhu, you are busy yourself, I guess my cousin is here, I will go to the front hall to greet you." ”
The front hall is full of people, and the people work very hard, and tomorrow is a good day, and their rewards are naturally indispensable.
Liu Suyi saw her coming, and pulled her to sit down: "Cousin, I brought your congratulatory gift today, and you will know tomorrow!"
Hua Langying also sneered at her: "Dad, mother, look at it, this bad girl in Suyi knows how to hang my appetite, looking for a fight!"
After saying that, he pretended to be angry and turned away.
Liu Qing looked at it from the side, and she was proud, she picked up a handkerchief and covered her mouth and smiled: "Look at the two of them, although they are both fourteen years old, they are still as good as the first acquaintance!
The people present laughed, and the Jiang sisters were also happy in their hearts, Hua Qichen saw that except for Liu Wei, there were women and children all around, he was very bored, and he was about to leave.
At this moment, Lu Zhu ran out of breath: "Miss...... Miss, those pair of red gold carved bracelets...... The bracelet is gone!"
"What!" everyone present was startled and panicked.
"What bracelet?" said Hua Qichen, who stopped as he drew attention to the news.
Jiang Wuyan immediately stood up and explained: "Master, it's a pair of red gold carved bracelets, I specially called and gave them to Ying'er for her to wear tomorrow." ”
Liu Wei remembered at first that the bracelet was given to Hua Langying by herself, and later she used the pair of bracelets to open it, framing Hua Rongying and receiving it privately with herself, and then looking for Red Rouge and Luzhu to testify that the two had a private relationship, so that Hua Rongying had to admit it even if she couldn't look down on herself. As soon as he heard that it was another bracelet, he calmed down again.
"It's just a pair of bracelets, it's not worth stirring up, let it be. "When the flowers are dusty, they will leave with their hands.
At this time, Jiang Shi said with a sad face: "But the pair of bracelets are made of gold left by my mother, no less than a hundred taels of gold!"
When Hua Qichen heard this, he immediately ordered: "Send a few more people to find it, be sure to find it!"
After a long time, everyone was together, but they still couldn't find it, and Hua Qichen became angry.
How could a good pair of bracelets disappear? It must be that someone in the house has unclean hands and feet, and he has become a thief.
It's just that now that the Liu family is here, they want to search the house to delay the matter, not to mention, if it is really searched in the master's room, it will only make people laugh if it is spread out.
When everyone was embarrassed, Lu Zhu said cautiously: "Is the red gold carved bracelet that Miss said carved with a phoenix wearing a peony?"
Hua Rongying squinted at this time, and she said, "My mother gave it, I don't want to take it out on weekdays, and I can't remember what it looks like." After that, he watched a good show on the sidelines, and the calmer he was at this time, the more he looked like a victim, and others would believe it.
Jiang took over: "Yes." Green bamboo, do you know something?"
The green bamboo trembled, Liu Wei and Liu Suyi were in front of them, they would definitely not let go of themselves, but she Luzhu couldn't change her fate of being an outcast.
She gritted her teeth and stepped forward and said: "That day, the slave maid found a pair of such a pair in the box at the head of the bed of the red rouge in the room, she cherished it very much, and she always took it out to take a sneak look before going to bed, and it happened to be seen by the slave maid!"
Hua Qichen ordered someone to go down and search it, and as Luzhu said, everyone held their breath.
Liu Suyi and Liu Wei were puzzled: What does this green bamboo want to do?
Liu Qing's eyes burst out with a killing intent, it seems that this cheap maid of Luzhu is planning to sell her master for glory!
Red Rouge hurriedly walked in at this time, and saw so many people looking at her, not understanding what was happening, the soles of her feet were weak, and she almost didn't stand firm.
Hua Qichen said angrily: "Bold and cheap, dare to steal in the house, and still don't kneel!"
Seeing that everyone was staring at her, she panicked, and before she had time to say anything, she knelt down straight: "Master, the slave doesn't know what the master is referring to." ”
"Hmph! I don't know what's going on!
A pair of red gold carved bracelets appeared in front of her, and Red Rouge's heart jumped: Isn't this the bracelet that Miss gave her?
"Master, madam, this is a reward for the slave maid on the first day the young lady woke up, and the slave and maid saw that it was too valuable, and she didn't even dare to wear it on weekdays. Red Rouge said.
As soon as she said this, everyone looked at Hua Rongying, Hua Rongying looked innocent, and hurriedly said: "Red Rouge, are you mistaken? On weekdays, I keep my clothes and jewelry by you, and I just woke up that day, how could I reward you alone without appreciating the green bamboo?"
Liu Suyi felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Is it that my sister woke up that day and rewarded Hongrou that day, and I can't remember it? ”
Hua Langying showed a firm look in his eyes, and said undoubtedly: "The red rouge and green bamboo were given to me by plain clothes, and I have always cherished them, where would I favor one over the other?"
When Hong Yan heard it, she realized that she had been tricked, but only she and Miss were present at the time, and now she can't wash it even if she jumps into the Yellow River!
Could it be that the young lady set herself up as soon as she woke up? Hong Yan was suddenly frightened in her heart, at this time, the young master would not intercede for herself, so wouldn't she ......
"Miss said that this is a bracelet given by the young master, and she can't use it, so she gave it to Red Rouge, who is loyal and doesn't dare to do such a thing even if she is killed!
The green bamboo on the side was also cold, and without saying a word, what did the red rouge think, she raised her head again and said: "Miss, the green bamboo was also given to the young lady by the young master of the table, just ask her." ”
Hua Langying said: "Luzhu, you come." ”
Lu Zhu was not in a hurry, she looked at the red rouge on the ground, then looked at Liu Wei, and lowered her head again and said: "Master, Miss's clothes and jewelry slaves never know, but I haven't heard Miss say anything special about bracelets on weekdays!"
Hua Langying immediately said: "Red Rouge, you are so confused! My cousin is an elegant person, even if he gives gifts, he will not give some gold and jade or anything like that." There is a difference between men and women, and my cousin is the most knowledgeable and has always done things above board, so how could he secretly send it to me? Wouldn't you humiliate me and my cousin by talking nonsense like this? In vain, I have always been your confidant, and you really make me sad!"
Everyone present felt that the red rouge was bold, and even dared to worry about the master's things, Hua Langying, a daughter who was loved by thousands of people, would not lie, a high-ranking master, why was there any need to get along with a maid?
As soon as Liu Wei heard this, he immediately said in a deep voice: "What my cousin said is that I have never given such a bracelet!" He originally saw that the pair of bracelets was exactly the same as what he had given, and wanted to take this opportunity to frame Hua Rongying for having an affair with him, but now for the sake of fame and future plans, these can only rot in his stomach.
Hua Qichen's eyes shrank, slapped the table again, and roared angrily: "Cheap maid! It's just a matter of stealing, you dare to slander your master! This pair of bracelets is worth hundreds of gold, come here! Cut off your hands and send them to the government!"
According to the law of Fu Cang, if a person steals a property worth a thousand taels of silver, once discovered, the owner can cut off the thief's hands and send them to the official. Hua Rongying smiled comfortably in her heart, all this was not in vain.
Hua Qichen was the prime minister of one time, and the red rouge who committed the crime arrived at the official mansion, and those who befriended the prime minister naturally would not try her fairly, but would only handle the case in line with Hua Ying's intentions: the red rouge is dead!
"Miss! I don't! Miss Watch, help me! Save me!" The voice of the red rouge killing a pig sounded in her ears, and Lu Zhu smiled with satisfaction, didn't Liu Wei say that the red rouge was gentle and intelligent? Why can't she even save herself now? She smiled contemptuously in her heart.
