Seeing that Wang's mother hurriedly stood up to greet him, Bai Laoshi reached out and grabbed Wang's mother's sleeve and walked into the house.

Xia Chen felt evil in his heart, could these two be old friends? But even if you are afraid of being seen, you don't have to be nervous like this, right? After all, this courtyard is not a forbidden place, and Mother Wang is not a daughter, and the two of them have never flirted with each other, thinking of this, she jumped off the wall and came to the window.

There was no sound of speech in the room, only the sound of small fragments like tidying up.

"Now that we've got everything, let's leave tonight, shall we?" After a while, Li Laoshi suddenly whispered.

Xia Chen immediately pricked up his ears when he heard this, it turned out that these two people were planning to flee with money. I don't know what the "thing" they are talking about, if it is very important to Xia Fu, then it can be regarded as a favor for themselves, which is quite interesting.

Wang's mother said: "Cousin, you take your things first, I can't leave now." ”

Li said honestly: "Cousin, aren't you still thinking about the master-servant relationship, and want to wait for the old lady to pass the third seven, right?" Even if you don't look at other people, you know that people like us are called to be used by others. If you do a good job, they will casually praise you, if you go on a business trip, you will be scolded, even if you do your duty, there are all kinds of black pots waiting for you to carry at any time. ”

Mother Wang sighed: "Cousin, it's been more than 20 years, can't you let it go?" ”

Li Laoshi's voice suddenly became excited: "I naturally can't let go, if it weren't for that incident, how could I become a waste, we ...... We've ...... long ago."

"Cousin, we're both old, so don't talk about these things anymore. I felt that the eldest lady had begun to pay attention to me. Yesterday she called me over and asked me how many years I had served the old lady, and where she liked to keep her things. ”

Li honestly said eagerly: "Then what are you waiting for, don't you go with me?" I have saved a lot of money over the years, and with these things, it is enough for us to return to our hometown and buy some land and spend our old age in peace. ”

Wang's mother said: "I just haven't done one thing yet." I promise you to do your best. ”

Li honestly sighed: "Okay then. That's right, cousin. Let's take these silver tickets, let's burn these homestead deeds. ”

Mother Wang said: "Don't burn it, we can't sell these things now." But don't forget, the eldest master will return to the border soon, as soon as he leaves, I will hand these over to the third young master. ”

"Give it to him? Why? I looked at the boy very strangely. Leave him alone, right? Li honestly said with doubt.

Mother Wang chuckled and said, "You! Do you think I've put so much effort into getting these things just to cheapen others? ”

"What about you?"

Mother Wang's voice became very strange: "Why don't you hate me?" Xia Qiutang took up my body. Ruined for a lifetime! But he's dead, and I'm ......."

"And what exactly are you going to do?" Li Laoshi became more and more confused.

Xia Chen was also a little confused when he heard it, Xia Qiutang was the old lady Xia, since Mother Wang hated him. Why would you be grateful to Mrs. Xu, and keep those land deeds to yourself?

At this time, Mother Wang said in a low voice: "Cousin, although the third young master is smart. After all, he was a child, and he was kicked out again shortly after returning home. Speaking of this, she paused and continued: "This time, he doesn't know how much land the Xia family has. Second, he must hate the people of Xia Mansion very much, do you say yes or no? ”

Bai honestly pondered for a moment: "This ...... It's natural. ”

Wang's mother said: "As long as I give him a few land deeds, he will be grateful to me, even if he doesn't listen to me for everything, he will not suspect us of stealing it." At that time, while he and the two ladies were arguing over the property, we would sell these valuable lands, and they must have thought that the third young master had sold them. At that time, the Xia family only had a few dilapidated houses and dozens of acres of land left, and naturally they couldn't support this mansion, so the Xia family would fall. And if the eldest master heard about this, even if he didn't vomit blood, he would kill the third young master, so it would also be considered to be the root of the Xia family's lineage. ”

Depend on! Hearing this Xia Chen secretly scolding in her heart, this old woman usually has a kind face, but her heart is so vicious. It is conceivable that she had been making trouble behind her back before, and the purpose of what she said to herself that day was also to provoke the relationship between herself and the Xia family. And since these things are in her hands, she also has a share in Mrs. Xu's death.

At this time, Li Laoshi smiled as if he had suddenly realized: "Wonderful, I have always thought I was smart, and I am a fool compared to your cousin." ”

Wang's mother said: "You just wait to watch the show." Oh, I have to leave immediately, you first find a place to settle down and bring me a letter, and I will go to you as soon as the lord leaves, remember to put these things away. ”

"Cousin, don't worry, I'll send you."

When Xia Chen heard this, he hurriedly dodged and hid behind a large water tank in front of the house. Watching the two of them walk towards the courtyard gate, she flashed into the house.

On the table lay a roll of silk, a few pieces of loose silver, and two carved wooden boxes of sandalwood, all of which she had included in the ring, without seeing what they contained.

At this time, she heard Bai Laoshi's footsteps, and she jumped on the beam of the house and lay on a beam.

As soon as Bai Laoshi entered the room, he saw that the table was empty, his face immediately turned pale, and his body couldn't help shaking, he held the door frame with one hand, and kept rubbing his eyes with the other hand, and after a while, he opened his mouth but took a bite like a dumb eater, picked up a wooden stick by the door and turned away.

Xia Chen listened quietly, until there was a sound from the back door, and Bai Laoshi's footsteps were almost inaudible, so she jumped off the beam of the house and left quickly, and then left the courtyard through the moon cave door that led to the front yard.

Since the incident of Meng's guards, the guards of the Xia Mansion are no longer allowed to come to the side where the female dependents live, and only arrange guards in the front yard and Xia Zhongyang's courtyard. At this time, it was already a little dark, and the servants had basically finished their day's work, so Xia Chen came to the courtyard where the Sun family lived very smoothly.

Looking in from the wall, there was a maid ring and a mother-in-law standing in front of the main house, and candles had been lit in the east side. Xia Chen thought for a while, took out his bow and arrow, wrapped the letter paper around the shaft of the arrow, pulled the bow and aimed at the position of the arrow and shot the arrow into the window.

"Ahh I only heard Sun's exclamation, and the mother-in-law and Yahuan outside the door were about to enter the house, but they heard Sun's say: "It's okay, I just accidentally stabbed my hand while sewing clothes." ”

Xia Chen left the Xia Mansion according to the original path, and when he passed by Bai Laoshi's courtyard, he found that the others had not returned, thinking that he was still "chasing the thief".

Thinking that there was such an unexpected harvest on this trip, Xia Chen had a smile on his face, and he really didn't know what the next Xia Mansion would be like. (To be continued) R640
