Xie Mulin's yard is located on the West Road of the Xie family's mansion, behind the Jin Xuan Hall where Mrs. Xie lives. This area is called the "West Courtyard" by the Xie family, in fact, it is a two-entry courtyard with two cross-courtyards, the two-entry courtyard is the residence of the Wen family, and the two cross-courtyards live Xie Jinzhi and Xie Yingzhen brothers and sisters.

Therefore, Xie Mulin wants to go to Jin Xuan Hall from his courtyard to find Xie Yingrong, it is very convenient, go out and pass through an aisle, and he may not even meet other people on the road.

However, when she walked to Jin Xuan Hall, walked from the back door to the front door, and then turned back to the back door from the front door, she saw very clearly that there was no Xie Yingrong in the courtyard, and even beeswax was nowhere to be seen.

Only the old lady Xie lived in the upper room on the ground, there was a small suitcase. Xie Mulin lifted the lid and looked at it, there were two burdens inside, one was filled with a few of Mrs. Xie's head and face clothes, and the other was filled with curtains and tablecloths and other things in this upper room, as well as tea sets, incense burners, and so on. In the middle of the two burdens, there is also a palm-sized jewelry box.

Xie Yingrong said that she went back to the mansion today to get something for Mrs. Xie, and now the thing has been taken, it seems to be the same thing, but what about her? Could it be that he went back to his yard?

Xie Mulin turned around and went to the east road of the mansion, which was the residence of the young masters and girls of the big house, as well as the courtyard of the aunts. The place close to the garden is Xie Xianzhi and Xie Yinghui's, Xie Yingrong's yard is further north, although there is a passage to the garden, but the courtyard as a whole is located in the corner, some tide, the lighting is not very good, and the yard next to the next is the courtyard where the next person lives, which is usually noisy. But there is no way, she used to be treated like this, and her status in the big house may not be as good as Xie Yingfen from Wanqin.

Xie Mulin followed the road in his memory to Xie Yingrong's courtyard, but stopped halfway through.

She was at the gate of Xie Yinghui's courtyard and heard the movement of beeswax talking.

Beeswax said to Xie Yingrong: "Girl, I have really looked for everything, and these are the only ones." I will never dare to hide anything privately, I don't believe you will search my body! ”

Xie Yingrong's tone seemed to be a little angry: "No one said that you hid things privately, and I don't think you have the guts!" But have you really searched them all? Is that all? How can it be? Xie Yinghui is so favored, the Cao family almost didn't give her gold and silver, every time she has a big banquet or family banquet, what she wears on her head and body is not the same jewelry, and each piece is priceless, but now there are only such goods left? ! The devil believes it! ”

Xie Yingrong's voice came from the house: "Sure enough, she made a special trip back for a trip, the refuge is fake, and taking away her private collection is her real purpose, right?!" ”

Xie Mulin tugged at the corners of her mouth, and she knew that she had guessed correctly. When Xie Yingrong was trapped in his house, he could think of stealing the valuable ornaments in the small treasury to prepare for his poor life in the future, how could he leave such a big house alone now, and only be satisfied with retrieving his personal belongings?

Xie Yinghui is the target she is targeting, she has money, a lot of jewelry, and no one is there, and she is not likable. As long as Xie Yingrong took advantage of the unpreparedness of the former to enter the former's yard and take away the other party's things, who else would stand up for the other party afterwards? At worst, the responsibility for the theft of things can also be shifted to the officers and soldiers who raided the house. After the Pingnan Bofu and the Cao family turned their faces, the subordinates sent by the Pingnan Bofu could also share the black cauldron.

However, Xie Yinghui went back to the mansion last night and left with a lot of things. This matter was unexpected by Xie Yingrong. Now that she has pounced, even if she can still gain, it will definitely be much less than she expected, no wonder she is so angry.

Xie Mulin calmly walked into the courtyard and walked directly towards the main house.

As soon as Xie Yingrong turned around, he saw Xie Mulin coming, and the whole person suddenly froze there, and a panicked expression quickly flashed on his face. She was still thinking about remedy, desperately giving beeswax a look, not knowing what to do for the latter, and at the same time greeted Xie Mulin with a dry smile: "Second sister...... Why did the second sister come over? I, I heard that the eldest sister came back yesterday, and I missed her strangely, but unfortunately I couldn't meet her, so I ...... So come and sit in her yard and reminisce about how the sisters used to get along. ”

Xie Mulin entered the house, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of beeswax holding a package, hiding behind the multi-treasure shelf leading to the bedroom, shrinking his head, presumably Xie Yingrong signaled her to hide with something and not let herself see it, right? It's a pity that she forgot that the multi-treasure shelf is not a wall, it can't cover anything.

Xie Mulin sighed and said to Xie Yingrong: "The third sister is becoming more and more promising, when you raided the house before, you have been convicted of stealing by the master and servant of the Cao family, at that time, you can still shout injustice, but now you don't even plan to shout injustice, do you want to directly let everyone know that you are a thief?" Do you want me to call my mother, eldest brother, second brother, and third brother over to have a look? ”

Xie Yingrong's face suddenly turned red, she glared at the beeswax angrily, and only felt that the Wen family bought her such a stupid girl, just to pit her.

However, after being exposed by Xie Mulin in person, she simply stopped hiding it, turned around and sat on the chair opposite Xie Mulin, and said with a reasonable look: "Second sister doesn't have to say it so ugly. The eldest sister didn't want to go home by herself, so she ran away with the people of the Cao family. It's a pity that these things she left behind are in vain. I lack everything, so what does it matter if I borrow a few? How can I say that I am also a serious girl from the Xie family, better than the eldest sister who doesn't know whether the surname is Cao or Fang, right? The Xie family's things, why can't they be used by me?! ”

Xie Mulin only felt funny: "The third sister really doesn't even want face now." Even if it's something from the Xie family, you can't just take it, right? If you say so, then I can also take your things from the third sister at will? After all, I am also a serious girl of the Xie family, so what does it matter if the Xie family's things are used by me? ”

Xie Yingrong stretched her face: "Second sister, are you going to raise the bar with me?" ”

Xie Mulin straightened his sleeve: "Who has time to raise the bar with you?" I just wanted to tell you one thing, the things in Big Sister's house are not ownerless. In addition to herself, her father has already spoken, and the objects in this courtyard are temporarily handed over to the eldest brother to take charge. Even if the eldest sister is not at home and there are many things left in the house without taking them away, it does not mean that others can take them at will. The eldest brother is still busy packing his things at the moment, and he doesn't bother to do this for the time being, but at the latest, this afternoon, he will bring someone over. ”

Xie Yingrong's face darkened: "I haven't heard of this." ”

"Isn't that normal? You don't live at home. Xie Mulin chuckled, "Even if others don't bother to tell you, it's no wonder everyone." Because no one thought that the third sister would run over without asking for herself? ”

She looked at Xie Yingrong: "Oh, by the way, there is one thing you may have overlooked, how to say that this courtyard has also gone through several rounds of searching by officers and soldiers, and there are people from Pingnanbo Mansion and the Cao family who have come to pick up things, and the really valuable items are long gone, and the rest are ordinary goods that the Cao family can't look down on, and they feel that it doesn't matter if they are left for the time being." What the third sister wants, there should be no here. You better leave your things behind, and save the eldest sister from looking down on the third sister when she comes back to visit us, and finds that her yard has been robbed. If she couldn't get angry for a while and complained a few words in front of relatives and friends, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of the third sister? ”

Xie Yingrong is a person who wants to marry into a wealthy family, and she is trying her best to paint herself a virtuous and virtuous persona, how can she take such a risk? Not to mention that Cheng Du, who she fancies, is also a relative of the Cao family.

Xie Yingrong's face turned completely dark, she stood up suddenly, and yelled at the beeswax: "What are you doing in a daze?" Still not leaving?! He strode out.
