This small town called "Horn" is really small, about half the size of Yulin Town, and it is still a quarter of an hour's drive from the official road, which is why its economy has not developed like Yulin Town.

Shu Yao smiled secretly in her heart, it was really a puff in the corners.

The dart master of the Xinyi Dart Bureau took the group to the so-called best and largest restaurant in the town of Xuanjiao, and Shuwen rolled his eyes: "This is similar to the Xiangxiang Restaurant in front of Xitang Street, right?" "The biggest and best restaurant?

Zhang Caishu hooked his fingers and tapped Shuwen's head: "Stinky boy's requirements are not so high, it's good to have such a place to eat when we are in a hurry, and we can only eat dry food in the next few days." ”

"Hehe, don't you think it's weird?" Shuwen is not picky about eating, but he thinks it is exaggerated and too unexpected for him.

The dart master who led the way explained with a smile: "There are more small food stalls in this town, which are cheap and affordable, and there are more people in the town and people from nearby villages who are rushing to the market. The town is too small, and rich people want to live in other places, and there are many people in our Yulin Town, how many people are willing to go to the restaurant? The owner of this restaurant is a filial son, he originally studied cooking in the capital, his parents were not in good health, and he didn't want to leave his hometown, so he came back to open this restaurant. Fortunately, this store is his own, and most of his guys are his own family, plus his craftsmanship is good, and his business is also sincere, but it has attracted some people who often run on this official road and pay attention to food. There are a few rooms upstairs where you can stay, which are very clean and not expensive. ”

There were only a few customers sitting on two tables in the whole store, but Shujie and his group came in and filled the tables and chairs at once, so happy that the guys laughed so hard that they couldn't see their eyes, and hurriedly poured tea and introduced specialty dishes.

The serving is not slow, and the color, fragrance, and taste are not worse than those restaurants in Yulin Town, and the portion is more, even Mrs. Xu nodded and said, "It's worth taking a more detour." It was very comfortable to eat. ”

Just when the shopkeeper and chef came out to ask the customer if the taste was still suitable, he smiled happily when he heard Mrs. Xu's words: "Mrs. Xie Lu, thank you for your patronage!" The small shop relies on everyone's word of mouth, and when you are satisfied, we will be happy...... I'm sorry, everyone eat slowly, I'll go upstairs for a while. ”

Shu Yao's eyes were sharp, and he was sitting in the right position, and before the shopkeeper looked up at Lu, he had already noticed that there was a cyan figure at the staircase on the second floor.

Because the dart master just said that there were guests upstairs, Shu Yao was not surprised. It should be that the female guest who lives in the hotel sees so many people downstairs and doesn't want to come down, right? So he motioned for the store to go upstairs.

After a while, there was a loud quarrel from upstairs. The shrill female voice shook the ears of the crowd.

Mrs. Xu frowned first and put down her chopsticks, fortunately she was almost full, otherwise it would be really difficult to have an appetite under the "accompaniment" of this noisy sound.

Xiao Zhang Chen hid in Shujie's arms: "I'm afraid, fight." He also raised his hands to cover his ears.

The dart master who led the way had an ugly face: "Man, what's going on?" It's not your boss hiding in his own restaurant, right? It's so noisy that people can't eat. ”

The embarrassed-looking guy was nervously looking at Lu. Hearing this, he suddenly came back to his senses: "No, no, the woman who quarreled was our host's wife." ”

Mother Wu, who had just stood behind Xia Ruoyun and waited after eating, "snorted": "Mrs. Dong? Strange, quarrel and quarrel to the store? I'm not afraid of delaying my business. ”

Before the words fell, an object was thrown upstairs with a "snap", and it was falling not far from Shu Yao. It was a small package of clear flowers that had spread out, and there were a few round things in it that began to roll around.

Shu Yao's gaze was fixed on a golden silk ruby in the middle of the small package, wasn't that a birthday gift from her mother to Cuizhu? You can't go wrong. It was specially customized, and the mother's diary said that it was painted by the mother according to what she saw before the crossing in the "Golden Branch Desire", because she felt that the green bamboo looked very similar to the mother, and it must look good when worn. Shu Yao looked to the side again. There is also a very familiar thing, a pair of silver and gold silk double buckles. It was a New Year's gift from Aunt Lan. When she found out that the bracelet was lost, Cuizhu always said that she would look for it again, but she must have forgotten somewhere, and it turned out that she had hidden it a long time ago.

The "Teng Teng Teng" shop ran down to pick up the packages and scattered silver nudes, pearls, and other jewelry.

"Wait," Shu Yao stood up suddenly, "May I ask the shopkeeper, where did you get these things, that Jin Bu Shao and that pair of double-buckle bracelets are all from our family, I can tell the mark on it." ”

The shopkeeper was stunned, and the people next to him were also stunned, Shuwen turned his head to take a closer look, wasn't the pure gold bat-shaped longevity lock that the shopkeeper had just picked up on his right hand wearing when he was a child? Directly pointed to the longevity lock and muttered: "That's mine, there is a 'Wen' word in the back, and there are five small 'Fu' words next to a big 'Fu' word in the middle of the front, and my mother said it was 'Liufu'." My sister also has one of this longevity locks, and the two are a pair. ”

Xia Ruoyun looked at the shape of the longevity lock carefully and nodded: "Yes, yes, at that time, I also asked my sister-in-law that the bat is so ugly, why do you want to make a bat-shaped 'longevity lock' on the baby, my sister-in-law said that 'bat' and 'fu' have the same sound, auspicious, except for my sister-in-law, no one should know how to get this thing." ”

The woman upstairs who had only heard a voice before suddenly rushed down, grabbed the gold lock in the shopkeeper's hand and looked through it carefully, and then shouted: "There are the words 'Wen', and there are also six 'Fu' characters, I said that what kind of spring grass is not a good thing, right?" I said that these precious jewels are not coming from the right way, right? Sure enough, it was stolen, and the owner came to the door, don't you believe it? ”

Spring grass? The three Shu Yao brothers and sisters, as well as Liu's mother, were slightly stunned.

The shopkeeper Mu Ran said: "This ...... This...... No...... No...... Chuncao is a kind girl...... She's not going to steal. ”

The woman in Tsing Yi (the shopkeeper's wife) grabbed the floral package again and smashed it on the shopkeeper: "No? Where did she get all these expensive jewelry? And the golden nude. Didn't you say that her neighbor said that her mother didn't get a good coffin when she died, and she was directly wrapped in a straw mat and buried, and even two broken houses were taken away? So what is she doing with all this stuff? Die, you, are you so obedient to run to help her dig this thing, and you have to go to the capital to redeem her, do you want our whole family to be killed by that little vixen? Now that the owner is coming to the door, be careful to pull you to the official! You hurry up and make everything clear, let's return the things to others, we have nothing to do with that spring grass. ”

Shu Yao said calmly: "You can take a look at that step again, there is a pit in the lower position, which I accidentally smashed on the stone when I was playing." There is also the pair of bracelets, one of which is engraved with the words 'Yaochi Fairy', and the other is 'Five-Year-Old Birthday'.

The shopkeeper was stunned and picked up the step shake and the bracelet to take a closer look, and sure enough.

The pale shopkeeper seemed to be really frightened: "I...... I really didn't know that she actually stole it, she said that her sister saved it. ”

"Her sister's name is Cuizhu, it turned out to be our wife's maid, stealing things, betraying the owner, and later being sold to the house. Why are these things with you? Mother Liu's voice carried a hint of majesty.

The shopkeeper's wife didn't care about scolding her husband, these people were dressed and graceful, and they had so many maids, mothers-in-law, and guards, they must not be ordinary people, she was so frightened that she knelt down with a "poof": "We have nothing to do with that spring grass, and we are definitely not accomplices." My father-in-law once went to Daimyo's Mansion City to work as a second cook for half a year, and rented two rooms from a family with his cousin, who happened to be neighbors of the Chuncao family. Once my father-in-law suffered from a cold, Chuncao's mother picked herbs to help him fry them according to a family recipe, and took care of him for a few days, and my father-in-law has always remembered it. A few days ago, a carriage to send a woman to the building in the capital stopped at the door of our store, and those escorts came to eat with us.

As a result, I don't know what went wrong, they stayed in our store for one night. That Chuncao recognized my father-in-law, and my father-in-law also recognized her, and originally thought of her mother's kindness and wanted to redeem her with some silver, but the escort said that these women were all taken by Liyun Pavilion in the capital, and they all paid silver, and they couldn't be sold separately, so they had to be redeemed to Liyun Pavilion for redemption.

Who would have thought that when they left early the next morning, the spring grass suddenly stuffed a note into my husband's hand while people were not paying attention, which was written on toilet paper with carbon, and asked my father-in-law to go to the Daimyo Mansion City to dig out these things she buried, and then go to the capital to redeem her, and say that the rest of the money to redeem people will be given to my father-in-law, and she will also be a slave and a maid for our family for the rest of her life, bah, what is a slave and a maid? Doesn't she just want to me? The woman had a pair of fox eyes, and it was not a good thing to look at. ”

The shopkeeper's wife was calm, and she could clear up the truth of the matter, but the shopkeeper didn't seem to have come back to her senses, or maybe she felt deceived, and there was even a touch of pain in her eyes.

Shu Yao said: "That's it, we are just going to the capital, and I am going to ask Chuncao about something, and we will take these things with us." If you don't feel at ease, I can pay you the equivalent value of the silver ticket as if I bought it. ”

"No, no," the shopkeeper waved her hands wildly, "you have made these things so clear, they must be yours." Where can I buy it with silver? It's good that you can believe that we are not accomplices, that we did not steal these things. The shopkeeper who came back to his senses also nodded: "Exactly, exactly, we can't collect cash, you can take these things back." ”

Shujie thought for a while and said, "That's it, I'll write you a ......."

"Brother Jie," Zhang Caishu interrupted Shujie's words, turned to the store, and said: "I'll write you a receipt, our Zhang's Cloud Garden is in Lucheng, and it's less than a day's drive away, if you have any problems, you can find me in the future, don't worry that we lied to you." Zhang Caishu knows what Lu Dao Shujie wants to say, but Shujie is now an official, and he will inevitably take the career in the future, and all unnecessary "reputation" risks cannot be taken, how can he casually leave IOUs, receipts and other things in the hands of others? He's just a businessman, so it doesn't matter.
