Volume 1: Husband Chapter 42 The Disappearing Ice Muscle Gyokuro (Part II) [Second Update]
Qingru Xu carefully recalled the details of this incident in her previous life, and felt that there were two possibilities:
First, someone steals Ice Muscle Gyokuro and wants to sell it secretly. But later, because of the ice muscle jade dew, a series of things were triggered, and the man was afraid that he would be discovered, so he secretly sent things back.
The second type, Qing Rulan hurt Qing Ruchu was injured, and someone saw that she would definitely feel sorry for Qing Ruchu, and took the ice muscle jade dew to Qing Ruchu, so she took the ice muscle jade dew in advance, and guided her into an unbearable situation step by step.
However, both of these speculations do not make sense. As Lan Zhou said, if it was for silver, that person would not be stupid enough to steal Ice Muscle Jade Dew. But if it's the second option, who would be so desperate? Knowing that Qing Rulan would find fault, knowing that Qing Ruchu would be injured, so as to take away the ice muscle jade dew in advance?
Lan Zhou saw that she was silent and did not speak, so he comforted; "Don't think about it, girl, maybe she just picked up the boat and put it there and forgot about it. Even if it's gone, it's just a bottle of medicine, girl, don't think too much about breaking your body, your illness has just improved these days, you see how happy the old lady and the old man are! ”
Qing Ruxu suddenly raised her eyes when she heard this, and something emerged from her subconscious.
At this time in her previous life, her condition also improved. Maybe it's because the family affair with Jiang Rin is going very smoothly step by step, so she is in a surprisingly good mood, her condition has improved a lot, she has used more food, and she can even run and jump. But then there was the incident of Ice Muscle Yulu, and her condition took a sharp turn for the worse and worse.
Is there any connection between this?
"Why is the girl always in a daze today?"
Qing Ruxu waved her hand slightly, she knew that Lan Zhou didn't think it was a big deal about the loss of Ice Muscle Yulu at all. Because for her, the worst result is that there is a thief in the courtyard, and it is enough to find out and punish it severely and then get out, and it is not worth her to think about it and cause illness.
Ke Qingru Xu knew in her heart that this incident was almost a turning point in her life.
"The light boats and fishing boats are all born in the house, right?"
"Yes, both of them are born in the family, and Yuzhou is the daughter of the cook in the small kitchen of Songhetang. Qingzhou is the daughter of the housekeeper in the courtyard of the six girls. Before the two of them came to our house, their wives had personally trained the rules, and it stands to reason that it is impossible to do such a thing. ”
"But apart from them, can anyone else enter our house?"
Qing Ruxu would not suspect Lan Zhou and Shizhou, because Lan Zhou was the granddaughter of her biological mother's grandmother and was the son of the Song family. And Shizhou is a little beggar she picked up from the street when she was a child, and the two girls have always been loyal to her, and they will never leave her until she dies.
Lan Zhou obviously didn't think that Qing Ruxu would suspect her and Shizhou, so she only replied: "Recently, we have been going out a lot, and the slave and the boat have to follow the girl every step of the way. In this house, fishing boats and light boats are guarded, others will not easily come in, and when we are not at home, the large and small cabinets in this house are locked, and I carry the keys with me. ”
As the two were talking, they came back.
"Girl, the slaves and maids have inquired clearly."
Qing Ruxu said lightly: "Say, what's going on." ”
"Today is a good day, just in time for kite flying, the second girl took the dragonfly kite you painted with her own hand to the garden, but I didn't expect the third girl to be there. The second girl greeted the third girl, and as soon as the third girl was distracted, the kite hung on the tree and the string was broken. The third girl was interested, so she said she wouldn't let it go, and just went back to eat the rose cake that had just been made in the kitchen. The second girl saw that she was a little unhappy, so she asked Purple Sleeves to go back and fetch a kite to accompany the third girl. When the third girl heard this, she said that she wanted the dragonfly kite, but the second girl didn't give it, so she fell down in order to avoid her. ”
"Wait." Hearing this, Qing Ruxu asked; "You mean, the third sister was already planning to leave?"
"Yes, it's just a kite, what's worth thinking about, where is there a shortage of kites in our house. Besides, the kite that the third girl was holding was just a casual make. ”
"In this way, it's not that Qing Rulan is deliberately finding fault."
Shizhou nodded and said, "It shouldn't be." ”
"Then why did she have to want that dragonfly kite again?"
"Oh, this slave also asked. Originally, the third girl was careless, and she didn't bother with the second girl for a kite. But the second girl said, 'If this kite was not drawn by the eldest sister and given to me by herself, I will accompany the third sister directly.' Now, I have to let the third sister wait, and I will ask Purple Sleeves to go back and get one to compensate you. Then, when the third girl heard that the dragonfly kite was drawn by you, she didn't know what she thought, and she suddenly came to her senses, and said that she wanted this dragonfly kite and nothing else. The second girl refused, saying that this was a gift from the girl, and she would never let it. The third girl got angry, saying that the second girl, as an older sister, not only did not take care of her sister politely, but also bullied her, and she was going to reach out and grab it. The second girl took care of avoiding her, her foot was broken, and her arm hit the rockery. ”
Qing Ruxu frowned when she heard this, it turned out to be Qing Ru's first words?
Is it really a coincidence?
She may suspect that Qing Rulan is treating her badly, but she will not suspect Qing Ruchu, the two have grown up together since childhood, and they are like sisters born of their mother, besides, what reason does Qing Ruchu have to harm her! There's no reason, isn't it?
She sighed after a moment's silence: "Maybe I'm thinking too much." ”
Lan Zhou said: "Girl, don't think about it, maybe you just forgot somewhere for a while." ”
Shizhou twisted his little face and said, "It's really not...... The slave clearly remembered that the last time she used Ice Muscle Jade Dew, it was because the girl mischievously used her fingers to probe the candle flame, and she was accidentally burned by wax oil, leaving a small black scar on the tip of her finger. The girl just rubbed it off and asked the slave to apply it again, and then directly put the ice muscle jade dew back into the medicine box, and the girl saw it with her own eyes. ”
Lan Zhou also remembered: "Yes, that's true, at that time, the slave maid also said that the girl should be careful with such a valuable medicine, and there will be no more when it is used up." ”
When Qing Ruxu heard this, she also remembered it, but she didn't think as deeply as Fang Cai, and said: "Then check out, who is not clean hands and feet." ”
"Yes, the slave knows, it's not early, the girl should have settled earlier."
………………
The darkness of the night covers the whole city, and the lights of the markets are as bright as day, and the hustle and bustle is even more than daytime. Xue Zhun sat paralyzed in the carriage and didn't want to say a word, he squatted in the streets and alleys for a day, but he didn't even catch Jiang Rin's shadow! He was tired and hungry now, and just wanted to find a quiet place to fill his stomach.
Outside, Mu Tong's voice came: "Master, we're here!" ”
Xue Zhun lazily moved his body to get out of the carriage and walked into the empty mountain pavilion with quiet grass and trees, and the sound of pipa from the depths of the courtyard made his heart relax. "Go and tell the store to bring you two side dishes to drink."
Zhong Er promised to do it immediately, and Mu Tong followed Xue Zhun into the private room where he usually sits. "Tired? The little one thrashes the shoulders of the master! "Mu Tong himself is tired enough, but who made him a servant." Master, did you say that Jiang Tanhua deliberately slipped away from us! In this big world, we are almost running all over the capital! ”
Xue Zhun was already angry, but when he heard his words, he kicked over: "Go out and let the master be clean and clean!" ”
Mu Tong's eyes lit up, and he immediately withdrew, sat down on the bench outside the private room, and let out a long breath: "I can finally rest......
When Zhong Er came back and saw him spread out on the bench, he asked, "Did the master kick you out?" ”
Mu didn't bother to say anything, and motioned for him to sit down and rest.
Xiao Er, who served the food, had long been accustomed to the virtues of Xue Xiaohou's master and servant, so he served the food himself, brought it to the door, and left Xue Xiaohou Ye alone to drink inside.
Unconsciously, Xue Zhun was drunk for seven or eight minutes, so he simply went to the Luohan bed placed in the private room and fell asleep unconsciously.
In a daze, Xue Zhun pulled his neckline unbearably, thinking to himself who was such a bastard and tied his clothes so tightly. "Someone...... Someone's coming......"
He shouted for a long time, but no one paid attention, and his mind was clear for a moment, but soon he was confused by the heat and dryness, and the room was full of fragrance, and the fragrance drilled into his nose one by one.
"Don't worry......
Suddenly, a voice penetrated into Xue Zhun's ears, and something cold stroked lightly on his face. Xue Zhun, who was hot all over, got this trace of coolness, where could he let it run. Immediately grabbed it with teeth and claws, and pulled it into his arms.
There was a slightly hoarse laugh in his ears, Xue Zhun couldn't help but pluck out his ears, which girl is this, with such a thick voice? Is there such a girl in his house?
Xue Zhun dragged the cold object into his arms, and at the same time felt that he was about to move in an indescribable part.
Hey, no, this feeling, how did you describe it to Zhong Er, the appearance of Chun Fang when she was scattered. Xue Zhun was so excited that the whole person jumped up from the bed! At this time, Mu Tong yelled outside the door, "What are you going to do to our master!" Come in with me! Wake up, sir! ”
Zhong Er's voice also came: "Ye hold on, the little one is here to save you!" ”
Then a few muffled noises came, and Mu Tong and Zhong Er didn't move.
Immediately followed by the shopkeeper's little er's reluctance to ask, and then someone said: "Our little grandfather is talking to the little marquis of the Xue family inside, why should you go!" ”
"Uh...... Yes, yes......"
Xue Zhun was not very awake, he didn't hear what the people outside were saying, his cheeks were red and his eyes were blurred, and he dimly saw a tall and thin white figure standing there in front of him, looking at him with bared teeth and smiling. "Mom!"
Xue Zhun was so frightened that he fell backwards and fell on the Luohan bed, his bones aching. I only heard the white shadow say: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid......"
Don't be afraid of your sister! Xue Zhun rubbed his eyes vigorously, but he still couldn't see clearly, he tried hard to support his eyelids, only to hear the person's voice was hoarse, it was clearly a man, but he made goosebumps all over his body: "Who are you?" You, don't come here! ”
But the white shadow grinned and chased after him, and even took off his shoes and crawled over......
