019 Embarrassed
Before lunch, the bearded man did get a car.
Or a carriage drawn by two horses!
In this small lotus village, it is very rare to see a horse once, not to mention two tall horses going hand in hand.
The bearded man drove back to Sheng's house, and I don't know how many people it attracted to watch the excitement.
As soon as the carriage stopped, many children in the village came to look, and those who wanted to get close but didn't dare to rely on it formed a circle in front of Sheng's house.
The children watched the horses, the adults chatted about gossip, and after a while, the door of the kung fu sheng house was boiling, and the entry and exit were more lively than during the New Year.
They are all from the township, and when someone comes into the yard to talk to Mrs. Sheng, she can't shirk it, so she can't take care of the things in the kitchen.
Not long after Mrs. Sheng went out, Li also took off her apron and said to the three daughters-in-law in the kitchen:
"I'll leave it to you here, I'll go out to see a few children, don't bump into the crowd outside."
As she spoke, she gave Gao Xiuxiu another look.
Gao Xiuxiu nodded slightly, then lowered her head and went to work on herself, pretending that nothing had happened just now.
Jing Xi was adding firewood at this time, and didn't notice the small movements between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
It wasn't until Gao Xiuxiu left that Jing Xi glanced at her back in a hurry.
After a while, Jing Xi suddenly said to Chen Taohua: "Second brother and sister, you help me watch the fire, I'll go and see if the door of my room is closed." ”
Just now she overheard several children coming in and out of the house.
And she had already packed her luggage and put it in her room.
In addition to a change of clothes, there were some scraps of silver in the baggage, and she was worried that these unattended children would enter her house and rummage around.
There was no one in the courtyard at this time, and everyone was watching the luxury carriage outside the courtyard.
Jing Xi was about to walk to the east house when he saw Gao Xiuxiu coming out from there.
Gao Xiuxiu walked with her head bored, and the steps under her feet were fast.
If Jing Xi hadn't raised her hand to block her in time, she would have crashed into her.
And when she saw Jing Xi, the whole person seemed to be flustered, and left without saying a word.
Jing Xi frowned, the old lady in the main house lived, the two rooms in the east chamber and her big room and the Li family lived, and the two rooms in the west chamber lived in the second and third rooms.
What does Gao Xiuxiu need to run to the East Chamber?
Could it be!
Jing Xi rushed back to his room, and sure enough, he saw that the burden on the bed had been moved.
When he took out the money bag, he saw that except for a few copper plates, all the broken silver was gone.
It must be Gao Xiuxiu!
Jing Xi laughed directly, this person actually did such a thing under her nose?
These days, she is busy brushing her good impression in front of Mrs. Sheng and has not shown her temper, Gao Xiuxiu really thinks she is a bully!
Jing Xi grabbed the money bag and immediately chased it out.
Gao Xiuxiu hadn't gone far yet, but when she saw Jing Xi chasing after her, she was weak in heart, so she ran away.
"I want to go!" Jing Xi quickly glanced around, and then picked up the basket she usually used to collect medicine in the hallway.
She didn't care about the herbs that had already dried inside, and she lost it when she saw Gao Xiuxiu's position.
She originally just planned to throw Gao Xiuxiu to stop her from escaping.
didn't expect her target to be accurate this time, as if she was cheating.
I saw a wicker basket as thick as a bucket spinning and falling in the air, and the head and face were suddenly upside down on Gao Xiuxiu's head.
Gao Xiuxiu felt that the top of her head sank, her eyes were dark, and there was even something in her eyes and mouth, and she screamed in fright.
"Ahh Help, help. ”
She howled twice before she realized that something was buckled on her head, and she hurriedly picked it up.
When she took the basket down and snorted the herbs in her mouth, she saw that Jing Xi was already standing in front of her with a calm face.
Jing Xi clasped her arm with one hand and spread it out in front of her with the other: "Where's the silver?" Give it back. ”
"What...... What silver! Gao Xiuxiu's eyes flickered.
Suddenly, she raised her voice again to make herself look imposing: "I don't know what you're talking about!" You'd better let me go quickly! ”
As she spoke, she began to struggle.
But the two are of comparable stature, and during the period of time after wearing the book, Jing Xi intends to exercise his body, and it is not so easy for Gao Xiuxiu to get rid of her for a while.
"Gao Xiuxiu, I've seen it all." Jing Xi looked at her coldly, "If you return the silver to me now, I will keep this matter quiet." ”
"Even if you don't think about your own reputation, you have to think about Shengchang and your son, Xiucai's daughter-in-law is a thief, do you think he can still succeed in teaching in the town? There is a mother who is a thief, can Zhiyuan still take the Xiucai exam in the future? ”
Kao Xiucai...... Gao Xiuxiu knows, it's very troublesome, and the neighbors have to be guaranteed to register for the exam, and if the virtue is not good, they won't go to the exam.
If you can't take the exam, do you want to be muddy for the rest of your life?
At this moment, Gao Xiuxiu almost forgot about the struggle, she panicked, and looked up at Jing Xi violently: "Sister-in-law, in fact, I am just dizzy"
"What are you doing?" Gao Xiuxiu was almost about to confess, but Li suddenly walked out from around the corner.
"Mother......" Gao Xiuxiu looked at Li for help.
Li frowned, this idiot, she has been hiding in the dark to see clearly, Jing Xi didn't see her stealing money with her own eyes at all, she didn't expect to cheat her casually, she would admit it herself!
"Jingxi, I heard what you just said that it seems that the third daughter-in-law stole your money. Do you know? You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense, in this family, you'd better not be so arrogant. ”
Arrogant?
Jing Xi sneered, she kind of understood, this Li family is a loose person.
Otherwise, Gao Xiuxiu just wanted to admit to stealing money, and she came out.
"Mother, it doesn't matter if you are arrogant or not, but it's true that she stole my money."
"Oh? Listening to you speak with such confidence, it seems that you have caught the stolen goods. You don't know that a thief wants to catch a stolen goods, right? ”
"Did you find your money on the third daughter-in-law, or what's wrong? I've been busy around just now, and I didn't see the third daughter-in-law enter your room. ”
Jing Xi frowned.
Li's sentence is also very confident. She dared to say this, it seems that the money is no longer on Gao Xiuxiu.
And Gao Xiuxiu finally regained her composure after the backer came.
She shook off Jing Xi's hand vigorously:
"That's right, you said I stole your money, do you have proof? You come to me and search for it, if you can find even one copper plate, I will take your surname. ”
"......" the attitude of these two people, Jing Xi knew that she would not be able to find the stolen goods.
Gao Xiuxiu must have hidden the silver as soon as she succeeded, and now there is Li to testify for her.
She can't be justified.
"Come on, you search!" Gao Xiuxiu straightened her body and was arrogant, "Come on, come, I'll let you search, I'll just stand here and let you search, I'll see what kind of flowers you can find." ”
Jing Xi looked at Li Shi silently for a while.
looked at Gao Xiuxiu again and felt that she looked like a monkey.
Yes, I suffered a dumb loss, but looking at them like that, it seems that I think they have won?
Oh, the gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late.
"Okay, just search."
