424 The golden branch does not go down to the church15

Zhou's mother's lips squirmed a few times, and she couldn't explain anything at all.

She originally wanted to say that these things were secretly put in by the Guo family, and she was framed.

But the arrival of Shopkeeper Yan directly blocked her mouth.

Don't look at the other pieces first, at least the incense ball in front of her was indeed sold by her, and there were more than a dozen other small items that day, which brought her a total of more than five hundred taels, and made her so happy that she didn't sleep well.

She didn't dare to deny it any longer.

Because the shopkeeper Yan has a handover list in his hand, with her signature and handprint on it, if he provokes Guo's and finally goes to court, the list is solid evidence......

Mother Zhou clenched her fists, blaming her for not thinking so much at the time, believing the nonsense of Sister-in-law Xiang, thinking that this shopkeeper Yan was really a conscientious businessman with a reputation greater than the sky. These profiteers who only recognize profits, how can they know what reputation? No, I sold her in a blink of an eye!

She gasped and glared at Lan Shuying: "What do you want?" ”

Lan Shuying's expression was faint, and she didn't pay attention to her, but told Master Zou to continue to search, and it would be okay to search this yard to the bottom, count it on her.

But nothing that has been stolen is allowed to be left here.

Speaking of the word "steal", she accentuated her tone, and Zhou's mother's face turned red.

Behind Master Zou was also leading two apprentices who were five big and three thick, and three strong men went to that station, blocking the light outside the door.

They tacitly divided into several directions and launched this carpet search.

Yueping held a list in her hand, and every time they lifted one, she found the name on the list and crossed it out.

In the end, a total of 33 large and small objects were searched from Zhou's mother, and there were 16 names on the list that had not been crossed out.

Lan Shuying glanced at it roughly, and already knew it in her heart:

Of these 33 pieces, except for the incense balls, which she put in, the others were all hidden in cabinets, boxes and even secret compartments that Zhou's mother didn't have time to find.

And the rest are all in Shopkeeper Yan's.

— no different from returning to her.

Because, the shop operated by the shopkeeper Yan is the property of the Guo family.

Lan Shuying was also speechless when she found out about him: he stole Guo Yizhen's things, and sold them to the Guo family to deal with the stolen goods, I'm afraid it was Shi Lezhi.

……

Mother Zhou was exposed in person, and heard ping-pong in her ears, many of her things were turned to the ground by Master Zou and others during the search, not only did her body tremble, her heart was twitching, and her flesh hurt! In the end, she gritted her teeth and ran towards the wall crying, saying that she didn't want to live anymore.

Master Zou grabbed her arm, brought the person back, and asked Lan Shuying what to do with his eyes.

"Save it, I guessed that you would die or live, I even invited the doctor, and sat in the front hall. If you don't die head-on, I'll let him come over to save people, and when the time comes, what happened here today, the entire Changxiu County will know." ”

"Everyone knows that there is a mother who took advantage of the fire to rob and steal things from her daughter-in-law's room, what sage books do you say he reads, and what kind of official he is?"

Lan Shuying said coldly: "Master Zou, don't stop her, let her bump into it!" ”

Mother Zhou is greedy for life and afraid of death, and if she really wants to bump into her, she won't pass by Master Zou. Hearing her words, the old woman trembled with anger, scolded her for being unfilial and unvirtuous, and contradicted the elders, so she should take a break directly!

"Hugh me?"

Lan Shuying smiled contemptuously: "Even if he wants to divorce me, then he will first grab all my things in his hands, now, do you see how dare he!" ”

"You live in my place, eat my things, spend my money, and you two conspire to kill me, do you really think that there is no royal law under this world? If you become a talented girl, you don't have to go to jail?! You're confident that I can't find evidence of that sterilizer. But it's okay, let's talk about these things in front of you, do you know their true value? ”

Lan Shuying fished out a cloth bag, her smile became thicker, and she handed it out, "Shopkeeper Yan, since she trusts you so much, it's up to you to tell her." ”

"Yes."

Shopkeeper Yan didn't move as casually as she did, he solemnly put the bag on the table, wiped his hands before taking out one, briefly introduced a few words, and then quoted.

Every time he said a number, Zhou's mother's face became whiter, closer and closer to the color of a dead man.

When it came to the last item, the shopkeeper Yan said in a deep voice: "This is the treasure of Chen Wangfu's marriage. This is the only one, which is worth all the previous ones. The first emperor once got drunk and rewarded it to His Royal Highness King Chen, and later the first emperor regretted it and wanted to exchange it with King Chen with a flying dragon hexagonal windproof copper lamp from the previous dynasty, but King Chen did not agree. ”

He paused and said apologetically: "Forgive the old man for his incompetence and incompetence, and he can't value this treasure." ”

However, just looking at the previous ones is enough.

Zhou's mother sold more than a dozen treasures for five hundred taels of silver.

She didn't know that the most common one of those things cost a thousand taels, and the shopkeeper Yan stayed behind to grind the price with her repeatedly, partly because he could have more time to identify them properly.

If Mother Zhou happened to put out this priceless treasure that day, Shopkeeper Yan would have recognized their origin a long time ago, and then went to report to Lan Shuying.

"You talk nonsense!"

Mother Zhou was from a low background, what kind of emperor and King Chen, she is like a fairy in the story, how could she have thought that the things she scavenged from her daughter-in-law could have something to do with them? She decided it was fake, and screamed like she had found a life-saving straw.

"You, you're the daughter of a merchant's family, how can you have such a treasure? Guo, don't try to bluff me, maybe, this person has accepted your money and come to deceive me together! ”

This is to mention Guo Yizhen's biological mother Chen, who is now the Empress Dowager Chen.

Chen grew up in Chen's mansion, the orphan of Chen's brother, and the adopted daughter of Chen's wife. Her appearance became more and more outstanding as she grew older, Princess Chen didn't like it, this smart girl knew how to hide clumsy, she gradually disappeared in the backyard of the palace, even if she married such a big thing, it was carried out quietly, and it did not alarm the world at all.

Princess Chen said that Guo Huaide was a good person, she was willing to marry without saying a word, and she did not compete with the princess's own daughter for Ruyi Langjun at all.

King Chen took pity on her and married her a lot of treasures, including this treasure that even the first emperor wanted to exchange back, the Nine Star Town Fortune Chart - the legendary treasure closely related to the dragon vein, it is also a coincidence, since the first emperor mistakenly gave it to King Chen, the central government has indeed become weaker and weaker.

But Zhou's mother didn't know the goods.

She took out this piece from Guo Yizhen's box, probably because she thought it looked inconspicuous, and after taking it back, she actually used it as a teacup mat until she was recognized by Master Zou.

Behind, Shopkeeper Yan was still nagging with Zhou's mother.

Lan Shuying came out with Master Zou and others.

She arranged an important task for Master Zou: to bring this Nine Star Town Fortune Chart to the capital and give it to King Chen in the name of Chen's daughter.
