Chapter 22: There Are Thieves
After dinner, several people went to Mrs. Zhu's side to say hello.
Wei Yiwan looks like a well-known lady, talks elegantly, has a friendly attitude, and has a fifth sister, as if Wei Yining is her sibling sister.
On the other hand, Wei Yining still looks like she doesn't fight or grab, and she doesn't talk much, and she may not say a word when Wei Yiwan says ten words.
After chatting for a while, Wei Yimi said: "It's not too early, I have to go out to play tomorrow, let the old lady rest early!" ”
Mrs. Zhu also said when she heard this: "But what! Go back and rest! Don't wait until tomorrow to run out of energy. ”
Wei Yining and Chunjiao returned to the courtyard, and Chun Xian came out from inside and said, "It's not too early, the girl has washed up and rested!" Ask the girl to find out what you want to bring when you go out tomorrow, and I will wrap it up for you. ”
Wei Yining raised his eyes to look at her, his dark jade-like pupils did not blink, and they were darker than the night at this time.
Chunxian was a little uncomfortable by her, and was about to say something, when she suddenly saw Wei Yining smile and said, "I'm sorry for you, I'm really thoughtful." ”
Chun Xian hurriedly shook her head and said, "Whatever the girl says, this is our duty as slaves." ”
Wei Yining slowly walked up the steps and walked straight to his room.
Chun Xian's tightly held heart finally slowly fell back to its original place, but her mind was still involuntarily thinking about Wei Yining's smile just now.
"These five girls are not bad, especially when they laugh, they are more beautiful than the eldest lady when they look at it seriously." Chunxian secretly compared in his heart.
The night was deeper, Wei Yining lay on the bed and breathed long, and even snored slightly, obviously asleep.
There is no moonlight, but a faint starlight is enough.
A man came to the room barefoot, like a civet cat.
There was a package on the small table, which contained the things that Wei Yining would bring with him on his trip tomorrow.
Shadow gently opened the package and carefully placed two things inside.
After doing this, she tied her baggage again and quietly withdrew.
Wei Yining in the Zhuluo yarn tent laughed silently, as expected, some people did not have the heart to die after all.
Early the next morning, Chun Xian woke up Chun Jiao, and the two of them came in to wait for Wei Yining to get up.
Because I have to go out today, each lady should bring at least two maids. Chunxian Chunjiao finished serving Wei Yining to make up, and the two of them also dressed up carefully.
After breakfast, the butler came in and asked for instructions, saying that the carriages and horses were already waiting at the door.
At this time, there were about a dozen carriages with red oil boards and blue silk roofs parked on the half street in front of the Zhiyong Mansion.
"You go down first, and when everyone is together, we will go out together." Bao commanded.
After a while, Mrs. Zhu was surrounded by a group of maids and maids, followed by several young ladies who also arrived.
The old lady combed her Nanshan bun, inserted a gold and gem-encrusted plum hairpin, wore an eggplant purple longevity flower lake silk jacket on her upper body, and wore a bean-green gauze skirt on her lower body.
Mrs. Zhu is not tall, but her momentum is not bad, although she is old, she is rich and majestic.
Bao Shi is wearing a fragrant cloud gauze dress with blue sky and water today, combing eight treasure buns, wearing a dragon pearl hair, and a spring-like jade bracelet on his wrist, which is elegant and rich.
Wei Chang'an wore a robe of lake blue woven gold jacquard silk, and a bright piece of jade was embedded in the forehead band of his hair.
Let's look at the young ladies of the Wei family:
Wei Yimi was obviously carefully dressed, with a crimson sheer gauze blouse, even the buttons were made of pearls, and she deliberately tightened her waist. Goose Yellow Palace Silk Skirt, Five-color Palace Silk tied with a peony pattern of mutton fat jade Pei, holding a soft smoke palace fan in his hand.
The eyebrows are green and the lips are red, and a bright eight-treasure dotted emerald hanging bead hairpin on the ingots bun can really be regarded as a trip in full costume.
Wei Yifang and Wei Yijia were dressed the same, they were all dressed in lotus-colored gauze skirts, holding a cloud and mist fan in their hands, combing double flat buns, and they didn't dare to seize the limelight of Wei Yimi.
Wei Yining is a jade-colored silk-colored cloud-shouldered jacket, a moon-white silk skirt, combing the most ordinary double buns, and no extra jewelry on her body.
Although she doesn't have to bring filial piety to her parents now, she has not yet completed the three-year mourning period after all, and overdressing up will attract jokes.
Everyone has arrived, only Wei Yiwan is missing.
With her temperament, she has to be ahead of everything in everything, why did she fall behind this time?
"Why can't the fourth lady come over?" Bao said to his maid Chunrong: "You go and urge, tell everyone to wait for what she will become!" ”
As he was talking, he saw Wei Yiwan rushing over with a hurried expression under the support of the two maids.
"What are you doing here?!" Bao couldn't help but get angry when he saw her appearance.
Wei Yiwan was wearing a light pink Xiangyun gauze dress, and her originally thin and bright hair was still visible because of the wig, but unfortunately the color was different, and she couldn't stand the details.
She wears a gold grate on her left sideburns, a silver grate on her right sideburns, and some pearls and emeralds on the top of her hair.
"Mother, it's no wonder I'm here!" Wei Yiwan cried as soon as she opened her mouth: "I was originally scheduled to wear that set of Hetian jade gold-inlaid hair ornaments today, but I can't find it if anyone wants to." ”
"Nonsense! Could it be that there are still thieves in this house?! Bao scolded: "The girl who is in charge of your jewelry!" Is it dead? ”
Wei Yiwan's personal maid Chunlan hurriedly knelt down and said: "Madame, Madam is angry, yesterday the slave maid found out this set of jewelry, and put it together with the clothes that Miss is going to wear today, whoever wants to get up early will be gone." ”
At this time, almost all the masters and decent maids of the Zhiyong Mansion were here, and they couldn't help but talk about it when they heard this.
"Mother, if someone can steal my jewelry, it means that she must know where my jewelry is." Wei Yiwan choked up and said: "This jewelry was taken out yesterday, as long as you search it, then the people who have been to my house will be able to find out." I think the man stole something and wanted to sell it as soon as possible, so I suspect that it was probably on the person who was going out of the house today. ”
As soon as her words fell, Wei Yi and Wei Yijia hurriedly said: "We went to the fourth sister's house at dusk yesterday, if you want to search, let's search the two of us!" As he spoke, he took out his own packages from the car, opened them with his own hands, and let Wei Yiwan check them.
Wei Yiwan stepped forward to take a look, shook her head and said, "No." ”
"The fifth sister was with us yesterday," Wei Yijia said loudly, "We stayed together until dinner before leaving." ”
Wei Yi watched them play a farce quietly, even when he mentioned himself, his face was expressionless.
"Chunjiao, bring the package of Miss Five, and the clearer will clear himself, but just take a look at it and it's over." Wei Yimuro said.
