Chapter 166: Can You Make a Face?

Shen Shuang picked up the cloth in the back basket, the expression on his face also became surprised, he turned his head to look at Old Man Shen and became a little anxious, and deliberately raised his voice.

"Master, father, it's too bad, the food box that Jiang Gongzi gave us is missing, and the dishes in it are worth more than a dozen taels of silver, and I don't know who stole it."

As soon as Shen Shuang's words fell, everyone reacted differently, all of which were very interesting.

Shen Shuang clearly saw her third aunt, Wang, and subconsciously looked at the father and mother who sent them to the door, and the faces of the two old men also became stiff, and they looked at each other, obviously a little panicked.

When the old man Shen heard Shen Shuang's words, he didn't care about the things he was carrying, threw them on the car, walked over a few steps, and sure enough, he saw that the food box that was originally placed in the back basket was gone, and his face suddenly became very ugly.

When he got on the ox cart, he also deliberately opened the food box to take a look, and the smell of roast pigeon on the top layer came to his nose, he thought it was delicious, and now it was stolen, he was angry and distressed.

"This, what's going on? Did a passer-by steal it? Is there a royal law here? ”

Shen Musheng on the side was also strange, his face was very serious, and he turned his head to look at the Wang family couple who were standing.

"In broad daylight, at the door of Old Man Wang's rice shop, the thieves are so rampant now. Old man Wang, I don't know if you and Mrs. Wang have seen anyone approaching our ox cart? ”

In fact, Shen Musheng deliberately put the ox cart under the eaves of the rice shop, and did not occupy other people's roads, even if someone took away their food boxes, presumably the two of them could see it.

Shen Shuisheng on the side looked curious, and asked with a little worry, "Dad, big brother, who are you talking about Jiang Gongzi?" The food boxes and dishes he gave you were so valuable, could they be worth more than a dozen taels of silver? ”

When Shen Shuang saw her third uncle's appearance, she guessed that he shouldn't have known about his father-in-law and mother-in-law stealing the food box, otherwise it wouldn't have been such a reaction, but this Wang family is obviously a thief, and they don't squeak anymore.

Old man Shen was a little irritable, thinking that the food box contained a lot of food from Yunlailou, and he still wanted to take it back, and when the time came, he would invite some people from the village to come over and taste it together, and he would also be able to earn some face, who knew that it was stolen now.

Shen Shuang saw her father and her father's reaction, and explained softly, her voice was a little sad, "Third uncle, Jiang Gongzi is the owner of Yunlailou, and what he gave us is a brown wood-colored food box, with cloud patterns on it, which looks very good, and the food box is naturally valuable, and it also contains roast pigeon and other Yunlailou's signature dishes, which are indeed worth more than a dozen taels of silver." ”

Jiang Zipei is not a stingy person, since it is a dish specially given away at the opening, it is natural to give some very valuable dishes.

And Shen Shuisheng, who heard this, suddenly realized that his father had indeed told him that lunch was eaten in Yunlailou just now, and the Shen family also did business with Yunlailou, but he didn't expect the owner of Yunlailou to be so good and send something to his father.

It's just that this thing is left at the door, can it disappear?

Shen Shuisheng also turned his head to look at Old Man Wang, "Father-in-law, do you see anyone approaching this ox cart?" Maybe someone saw that the food box was good-looking and took the sheep and stole it. ”

Old man Wang's face was very ugly, and he glared at his wife viciously, who would have thought that the food box was not used to honor the two of them, now it's okay, the food box is still clearly placed there, if the Shen family finds out that the food box was stolen by the two of them, then the face of the Wang family will be gone!

Old Man Wang was flustered, his face looked unnatural, he shook his head, and he looked arrogant that he didn't care about himself, "I didn't pay attention, I have to take care of business, who knows that there are still things on this broken ox cart." ”

Old Mrs. Wang is naturally very distracted, although she just ate happily, but she loves face the most, if the old Shen family she looks down on is said to be a thief, she doesn't know where to put this face, so in order to hide her weakness, her face at this time looks at Shen Shuang's eyes, it is scathing.

"Isn't it, we still have to look after the shop, where is the time to keep an eye on your broken ox cart? What else do you say about valuable food boxes, who knows if what you say is true or false, whether something is really stolen. There is only one Manfu Building in our town, and the Yunlai Building has long since closed down, where is there any good thing? ”

In her opinion, it is impossible for the Shen family to be related to any rich and noble family at all, just the food in the food box, she also feels that only people of their status are qualified to taste it, and the Shen family's mud legs are also violent to eat.

The words spoken by Old Lady Wang's disdainful look made Old Man Shen and Shen Musheng's faces suddenly become very difficult to look at, they all knew that this Old Lady Wang looked down on their old Shen family, but when they said this, it sounded as if they were pretending to lose things and wanted to put the blame on them.

Old man Shen didn't speak, but Shen Musheng couldn't help but want to get back some face for his family, after all, the Wang family had ridiculed the Shen family in front of them several times, and he was also angry.

"Old lady, although our old Shen family doesn't have any good things, we also know some nobles, and the food box is a gift from nobles. Jiang Gongzi is the owner of Yunlai Building, and he just opened today and sent us some things, and Mrs. Wang didn't see it, so she didn't need to say such a thing. ”

Wang stood aside, expressionless, but very anxious in her heart, how could she not be afraid, she wondered at first how her father-in-law who was slamming the door could send the food over, but before she could figure out what was going on, she learned that it was her father and mother who took the food box privately, and even took her good son to eat all the food in the food box.

Originally, they were all a family, and after eating something, she didn't think it was a big deal, but she didn't expect her father and mother to admit to taking the food box, you must know that the food box was placed not far away, and the old Shen family didn't know what was going on today, so they didn't give up, especially the chubby Shen Shuang didn't look easy to deal with.

If this non-fuel-efficient Shen Shuang sees the food box, it is estimated that there will definitely be some trouble at that time, and the Wang family is anxious about how to deal with this matter.

Shen Lotus on the side didn't know what was going on with the food box at all, she only felt that it was tiring and boring to stand here and listen to what they said about the food box, and the same was true for Shen Laibao, the two sisters and brothers had always been impatient on their faces.

"Mother, can we still go? If I don't leave, I'll go back with my brother. ”

Shen Laibao is a fat man, he has long been tired of standing, he can't understand what the adults are saying, he is still a little drowsy when he has just eaten, and when he heard his sister speak, he also coquettishly pulled the corner of Wang's clothes, "Mother, Laibao wants to go back." ”

Wang Shi glanced down at her two children, and had an idea in her heart, she took a few steps forward to speak, her tone was unprecedentedly soft, and her attitude was quite good, such a kind face and pleasantness were something that Old Man Shen had never seen.

"Dad, big brother, a food box is just a few dishes, and it's not worth a few dollars. Anyway, it was sent by someone else, and even if it was stolen, we wouldn't be able to get it back. There are so many people coming and going on the streets of Gushan Town every day, where can I find them? I see that it is not too early, let's go back to Xishan Village as soon as possible, so as not to delay the time and get home late. Noble and Lotus can't stand it, and it's also great to go and settle down early. ”

Shen Shuang couldn't help but sneer in her heart when she heard her three aunts' words, guessing that her three aunts wanted to pretend to be confused and expose this matter, but she, Shen Shuang, didn't agree.

Seeing that her father and her father seemed to want to agree to this suggestion, Shen Shuang deliberately took a few steps forward, and at her position, she could just see the food box on the table on the other side of the rice shop, and she pretended to look at Wang Clan unhappily.

"I don't agree with the third aunt when she says this, although the rice shop in the third aunt's house is very profitable, but is it a bit louder to say this? Isn't a dozen taels of silver worth a few dollars? That's a lot of money that we countrymen can't earn in a year. ”

When Shen Musheng heard this, he glanced at Old Man Shen, and then nodded in agreement, such a big food box suddenly disappeared, and they couldn't leave without asking, and a dozen taels of silver, they might not be able to earn so much silver by digging in the ground every day for a year.

Shen Shuang continued, "Although it was given by someone else, we still have to return the food box, and now even the food box has been stolen together, so let's forget it like this, don't we look for it?" Now there are so many people who are holding sheep with their hands, but it is a big food box, so Old Man Wang and Old Lady Wang, have you really not seen it? ”

The faces of Old Man Wang and Old Lady Wang had already sunk, and even with the Wang family, they scolded Shen Shuang dozens of times in their hearts, feeling that their niece was really difficult, looking chubby like a fool, but they were extremely smart.

Shen Shuang naturally knew that she had upset her by exposing the Wang family's tricks, but she didn't care, stealing their things and thinking as if nothing had happened, wasn't that a dream?

At this time, she pretended to sigh, deliberately turned her head to glance at the store, and then suddenly widened her eyes, pointed in a certain direction of the store and said loudly, "Huh? Look, there's a food box over there, exactly like ours. ”

Mrs. Wang's heart was pounding, and she clearly felt that her heart was almost frightened out by this fat girl, and Old Man Wang's face became very ugly, Wang was still calm, she hurriedly blocked everyone's sight, "That is my mother's new food box, Xiaoshuang, are you mistaken?" ”

Mrs. Wang was also afraid of embarrassment, and when she saw her daughter giving her steps, she hurriedly echoed, "Yes, yes, that's my newly bought food box." ”

Saying that, she wanted to kick her nose in the face again, looking at Old Man Shen and Shen Musheng, "In-laws, your eldest granddaughter is really good at climbing, and she even wronged me for stealing your food box, can you have a face?" ”

Everyone in the Shen family: "......"

Shen Shuisheng always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't care too much, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to help explain, "Mother-in-law, Xiaoshuang just mentioned it, and didn't mean anything else." ”
