Chapter 179: Catch the Present
Ever since the four girls came after dinner in the afternoon, the old lady had been restless, and then she began to recite the scriptures.
"Let her in!" The third old lady opened her eyes, and there was a bewitching light in her eyes. Speaking of which, although she is an old lady, she is actually only forty years old, and because she has never given birth to an heir, her appearance even looks younger, standing with Aunt Gu, I don't know their relationship, and I think she is just Aunt Gu's sister.
"Grandmother!" Liu Ruomei ran over and sat on the opposite side of the kang table of the three old ladies.
"Something." The third old lady stared at Liu Ruomei's unusually marked little face and said.
Liu Ruomei nodded and took out a package from her sleeve. The package was wrapped in something.
"Grandmother, Mei'er took Daddy's things, so Daddy won't find out, right?" Liu Ruomei looked aggrieved, as if she had let her do such a thing, how much it would damage her reputation.
"Don't worry! It doesn't fall on your head. Tonight, your father is where your mother is. He won't find it tomorrow morning, but he won't find it until he comes back in the afternoon. The third old lady said.
"Tomorrow, there will definitely be another outsider who can fight in Chu Xiuxuan. Grandmother deliberately chose such a time......" Liu Ruomei curled the corners of her mouth and said.
"Alright, you can go back. It's none of your business. Something left. The third old lady glanced at her and said.
After Liu Ruomei left, the third old lady continued to recite her unfinished scriptures.
Second Uncle Gu, who was hiding in the back room, heard the sound of scriptures outside and paced back and forth, looking like he couldn't wait.
After a while, the third old lady went back to her inner room, and Second Uncle Gu was naturally invited inside.
"Second brother. Later, I'll have someone take you to Juxiantang. When all the people there go down to sleep, you go in and mess up all the things in the third study, and then go out to the west gate. I've had the door open there. The third old lady said to her second brother.
"Okay, okay, don't worry. I'm just messing with his stuff, I'm not going to take a single thing. Second Uncle Gu said with a smile.
Looking at his appearance, the old lady didn't believe it at all, and said: "The third child has always loved those things as his life, if you take it, if he really investigates it, it won't look good." ”
"Oh, what kind of person is your second brother, how can he take his nephew's things indiscriminately." Second Uncle Gu waved his hand and said, pretending to be righteous and awe-inspiring.
"The money I gave you is almost enough to find someone for Yugui to exonerate himself." The third old lady sighed silently.
For the Gu family, she is benevolent and righteous, but they don't know when they will be satisfied.
"Sister, the second brother is a little tired. I'll go sleep for a while. When the time comes, you let a girl come and call me" Second Uncle Gu and Grandpa Gu yawned, stretched his waist and said, "I heard that Mei Yatou has entered the eyes of the prince, that's really a good thing!" ”
"Don't you beat the idea of a rose girl." The third old lady suddenly shouted softly.
"Sister, what are you talking about? Mei Yatou is Ping'er's daughter, and we all hope for her well. How could it hurt her. Second Uncle Gu smiled and said.
"Second brother, let's get up and rest for a while." The third old lady said.
After Gu's second uncle and grandfather went out, the third old lady couldn't help coughing.
Mother Qiu, who was on the side, hurriedly stepped forward and smoothed her back and said, "Old lady, don't be angry with your body." ”
"Gu family, these bean worms, what should I do with them. I don't know what's wrong, this Gu family has happened one after another, otherwise, I wouldn't have made this decision! The third old lady said.
"Not really. First, Uncle Gu's shop collapsed one after another, and then it was Young Master Cousin who killed people. It's really a bad year. Qiu's mother said.
The third old lady sighed, pinched the Bodhi Zi in her hand and said, "This time, it can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone, which can not only save Yugui, but also plant it on Liu Mengyan." ”
"Old lady, go and rest for a while." Mother Autumn said.
The lights in the Liufu dimmed little by little, and the people in each room gradually fell asleep.
Liu Sanye naturally rested in Haitang Garden.
Seeing that he didn't come back, the minions of Juxian Hall had already rested.
A dark shadow took advantage of the night to sneak into Juxian Hall. I saw that they had a smooth journey without alarming anyone.
The black shadow went straight to Liu Sanye's study.
When the moon outside burrowed into the treetops, the cuckoo began to chirp over and over again.
The black shadow came out of Juxian Hall with a burden on his back, and then went to the west gate of Liufu.
He walked extremely smoothly all the way, without detours, and obviously knew the path of Liufu for a long time.
Just as he was walking all the way to the west gate, another dark shadow suddenly passed over his head and fell silently behind him.
It was Zhu Song.
Immediately after, Zhu Song slashed down at the back shoulder of the black shadow, and the man fainted.
Zhu Song mentioned that the man came to Chu Xiuxuan.
"Girl, Zhu Song is back and has caught someone!" Bitong said through the gauze tent to Liu Mengyan, who was asleep in the compartment.
Liu Ruyan has never slept all the time, always thinking that something will happen, and when she heard Bitong's words, she immediately lifted the quilt and sat up.
When Bitong put on her coat, she hurried out of the back room and came to the hall.
There was a person lying on the ground in the hall, it was Gu's second uncle and grandfather.
"Girl, it's the Gu family!" Qiu Yun said.
Liu Mengyan sneered and asked Zhu Song on the side, "You caught him at the West Gate?" ”
"Yes. Girl, this is what he is carrying. After Zhu Song finished speaking, he handed the package in his hand to Liu Mengyan.
Qiu Yun stepped forward to take it, and then spread it out on the table next to it and opened it.
Liu Mengyan swept the things on the table, and they were all antique ornaments in Liu Sanye's study.
"It turns out that he went to Juxian Hall to steal something!" Bitong is incredibly authentic.
"Can't let him go like this. Zhu Song, send him back to Juxian Hall. When he's almost awake, let someone find him. Liu Mengyan said.
The third old lady is really at the end of her rope? actually let the Gu family enter Liu Sanye's study to steal things!
A trace of doubt flashed in Liu Mengyan's heart, and she always felt that things were not so simple! But what the conspiracy of the third old lady was, she couldn't know it all.
Zhu Song lifted the sleeping Second Master Liu on the ground, took him back to Juxian Hall, and threw him into Third Master Liu's study, so that he was hidden in the dark.
After about two sticks of incense, the little guy in Juxian Hall was startled by a loud noise.
They got up and ran out of the house, and found that the sound was actually coming from Liu Sanye's study, and there was a faint fire inside.
After a few moments, the entire third room woke up.
Because Juxiantang was a thief, Liu Sanye and the Zhu family were informed, and they got up and went to Juxiantang one after another.
Liu Mengyan also put on her clothes and helped Bitong out of Chu Xiuxuan and went to Juxian Hall.
When she came to Juxian Hall, she found that the third old lady, Aunt Gu, and Liu Ruomei were also here.
It seems that they are all thinking about it, and they haven't slept at all.
Liu Mengyan hid the sneer in her heart, walked to Zhu's side, and watched Liu Sanye angrily let people tie up Gu's second uncle and grandfather.
"Daddy, what the hell is going on?" Liu Mengyan pretended to be ignorant and asked.
"Daddy was about to ask this thief on the ground, what did he do in my study in the middle of the night?" Liu Sanye looked at the third old lady and said angrily.
The third old lady looked at the people on the ground with a miserable face, if it weren't for the girl next to her to support her, I was afraid that she would not be able to stand steadily at the moment.
Aunt Gu and Liu Ruomei on the side had even worse faces.
"Ouch, nephew, I was forced to do so, and I was lost for a while!" Second Uncle Gu also came to his senses at this moment, and sat cross-legged on the ground and said.
When the third old lady saw him say this, she put her heart at ease and pointed to the second uncle and grandfather Gu on the ground and said, "Second brother, why are you so confused." Don't hurry up and admit your nephew's mistake! ”
Want to get to the bottom of it? Dream!
"Daddy, what is missing in your house, you have to check it first. I don't know how many times this uncle and grandfather have done such things? Liu Mengyan said on the side.
"No, no, just this once!" Second Uncle Gu said with a bitter face.
In the end, he is a little older than Gu Yugui, and at this moment, he takes all the things on himself, and he doesn't even look at the third old lady.
"Third master, I never thought that our Sanfu had become someone's warehouse. Picking up things in the third master's study is like your own. Zhu said angrily.
As soon as she said this, the third old lady was so ashamed that her face was flushed, and the Gu mother and daughter lowered their heads no longer.
Liu Sanye brushed his sleeves away, and he wanted to go back to his study to check what he had lost.
"Second brother, why are you so confused, how could you do such a thing?" The third old lady finally spoke, her face full of regret and disbelief.
It's really good at acting!
"Grandmother, Uncle Gu has been coming to our house every day, I don't know what is going on?" Liu Mengyan said.
"Naturally, naturally I came to see my grandmother." Liu Ruomei suddenly interjected.
"Daddy's study is locked. I don't know how Uncle Gu entered his father's study so smoothly? But can't it be that the uncle of the Gu family has the key in his hand? Liu Mengyan said again.
"No, no. I smashed the lock. Second Uncle Gu, who was sitting on the ground, hurriedly said.
"Liu Mengyan, what do you mean by this?" Liu Ruomei said sharply.
"I don't mean anything. Just think it's weird. Uncle Gu entered his father's study so smoothly to steal things, don't you think there are many suspicions? Liu Mengyan said with a hint of a smile.
"Gu Tangzhi, how many times did you steal my things!" Liu Sanye's voice suddenly came from the back room.
Then, I saw Liu Sanye walking out with an angry face, staring at the people on the ground, his eyes almost bursting with golden light.
Everyone was shocked by Liu Sanye's appearance, only Liu Mengyan quickly asked calmly, "Daddy, but I found that there was something missing?" ”
"In addition to this burden on the ground, you also stole my jade bodhi seed, gold embroidered chapter, and a picture scroll. Yes and no? Where are you hiding? Liu Sanye did not answer Liu Mengyan's words, but asked directly.
