Liuli Pavilion.

Painted poems waited on the side, and Wanshu carefully selected clothes and jewelry suitable for the family banquet.

"Draw a poem, bring the gold silk embroidered dress, it is just worthy of the cloud and phoenix pattern golden hairpin sent by the third sister. and the pair of pearl pendants, too. ”

"Yes, miss. The slave and maid will go and fetch it. ”

Suddenly, the painting poem walked in quickly.

"Miss, the cloud phoenix pattern golden hairpin sent by the third lady is gone."

"How could it be gone? Have you looked for Duobao Geri? Is there a mistake in the place? ”

"The slaves and maids have been searched, and they are indeed gone. The slave and maid also saw it yesterday, and the hairpin was placed in the pearl box on the Duobao grid. ”

"You go and get the jasper gold step and the rest of the clothes first. After we leave, let the painting qin look carefully and see what is going on. ”

Huaqin led a tall girl to lift the curtain and enter.

"Miss, Sister Hongyu is here."

"Miss, Mrs. ordered the slave maid to come and take a look, has the lady cleaned up?"

"Sister Hongyu, tell my mother that I've packed it up here. Let my mother not have to worry about me, it is important to manage the family feast. ”

"The slave and maid have written it down, and the slave and maid will relay the young lady's words to the lady."

"Paint the piano and send Sister Hongyu out."

Hongyu quickly walked out of the courtyard of the Liuli Pavilion and heard the "two little maids" whispering.

"Did you hear that? The eldest lady's hairpin is gone, and it seems that it is still the one sent by the third lady. ”

"Really? How do you know? ”

"I saw Sister Painter, looking for something inside and out, and she seemed to be very anxious. I also listened to what Liu Er said. ”

"Who would have done that?"

"The eldest lady is strict under the rule, and she shouldn't be a person in our yard.

It seems that the people from Shimizu Pavilion have been here this morning, and I don't know if it has anything to do with this matter. You also know that the second miss has always been a greedy character.

Besides, it's none of our business. Let's do the work at hand. ”

"That's what you said."

Dong'er watched a section of cyan clothes leave, and quietly lowered the corners of her eyes.

Fong Wah Court.

Qinglan whispered: "Miss, the eldest lady should have found that the hairpin is missing."

The eldest lady beside the eldest lady, Hongyu, has already been to Fanghua Pavilion. Presumably, it won't be long before the eldest lady will know what happened to Liuli Pavilion. ”

"Alright, let's pack up and go to Grandmother's.

Aoba, you stay in the yard for a while. ”

"Yes, miss."

"Aoba, go and take out the gold thread gauze skirt.

Qinglan, help me pull a bun. Then put on that pair of ruby beaded head flowers. ”

"Okay."

After cleaning up, Qinglan exclaimed.

"The young lady complements each other very well, and she is very good-looking."

Aoba also agreed, "Miss looks very bright and moving. ”

Wan Ge glanced at Qinglan Qingye, "You two don't be poor. Qinglan, follow me to the Green Bamboo Garden. ”

Mei Yuan, the eldest lady's place.

Hongyu stepped into the inner room and saw her wife leaning against the beauty with a calm face.

Mrs. Knowles of Changle Hou was born in the Jiangnan Lou family. The Lou family has a profound heritage and is the home of poetry, books and etiquette. The eldest lady, Knowles, is also a woman with considerable insight and skill.

Since marrying into the head of the Hou Mansion, she has been deeply valued by the old lady and respected by her subordinates.

The eldest lady and Hongxia finished explaining the matters related to the family banquet, and turned to ask Hongyu.

"How's Shu'er?"

"The eldest lady has already cleaned up, and the lady can rest assured.

It's just that...... The slave maid just heard that the eldest lady lost a hairpin this morning, and it seems to have something to do with the second miss.

"The sunny girl in the third room is a high and low character. approached Shu'er several times and had a plan. It's just a trick that can't be put on the table.

Seeing that he couldn't get any benefits from Shu'er, he started the idea of a second-room song girl again.

Ge'er, this girl, was confused at first, but then she looked like she had a little thought.

These are inconsequential things, and I don't care about them. If Shu'er's lost hairpin is really related to the girl, I will have to ask for an explanation. ”

"The eldest lady has to be carefully taught by you, and the second lady's ideas and thoughts can't be hidden from the eldest miss.

Not long after the third lady returned to the mansion, she didn't know much about the things in the mansion. With the old lady mentioning it from the side, nothing will go wrong. ”

"But I'm overthinking.

"Hongyu, you take people to search the courtyards. Then go to the outer courtyard and ask if there are any suspicious people out of the house this morning. Or people who go out of the house on weekdays, is there anything suspicious. With the results, I went to the Green Bamboo Garden to return to me. ”

"Slave and maid, let's do it."

Green Bamboo Garden.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, everything is arranged?"

"Mother, it's already arranged."

The old lady patted the eldest lady's hand and said, "I have always been relieved that you are doing things. Ah Qiu, who else hasn't come? ”

"Back to the old lady, Master Hou is discussing in the study, and he will come over later.

The third master is outside and hasn't come back yet. The third lady was a little unwell and didn't come over. ”

"Okay, I see, how many young ladies are there?"

"The ladies are talking next door, and the old slave will inform the ladies when I turn around."

"Well, you go down first."

"Mother, daughter-in-law has something to tell you."

"You say."

Early this morning, Shu'er's glazed pavilion was stolen. ”

The old lady frowned slightly, "Hou Mansion has been in the past few years, when has this kind of thing happened?" Is it that those subordinates have unclean hands and feet? ”

"The daughter-in-law has some eyebrows here, and she is not sure. The daughter-in-law has decided that when the family banquet begins, she will order someone to search the entire Hou Mansion, and I believe that there will be results soon.

Shu'er's girl was sensible and silent. Now the news of the theft of the Liuli Pavilion has not yet spread. ”

"That's fine, you can do it. I'd like to see who is so rampant. ”

"My daughter-in-law thinks so too."
