Chapter 55: Tortoiseshell Light
The shadow of Qian was hazy in the green screen.
Changhe saw Du Ruo'er hurriedly coming, "Yo, what are the girl's big celebrities doing in this kind of place?" ”
"Send some ginseng to Miss Zhou." Ruo'er hurriedly put away the umbrella.
When she saw the bag in her hand, she said, "Such a good ginseng, the girl doesn't eat it herself, but gives it to them." ”
Ruo'er said: "It's really you who are careful, the girl is worried about Mrs. Su, so she can give it if she wants." ”
Changhe pursed his lips and stopped talking.
"Don't be petty, come in with me."
Ruo'er pulled her to meet the mother and daughter of the Zhou family, "Hello girl, our girl sent me to give ginseng to my wife, saying that it is the best way to replenish qi and maintain health." ”
Mrs. Su had fallen asleep, and they whispered at the door.
Hui Yan smiled: "Thank you on my behalf, girl." It's raining outside, and you're rushing over in the rain. ”
"It's okay, the girl said that Madame urgently needed this, so she hurriedly asked me to deliver it. I was idle again, so I came early. Du Ruoer said with a smile.
"Thank you, girl."
Ruo'er said: "The inside are all cut ginseng slices, and it is good to stew or boil the soup." ”
Hui Yan thanked from the bottom of her heart: "Thank you. ”
Du Ruoer said goodbye, "It's not early, I should go back." ”
The next day, Ruo'er went to visit the hawksbill turtle. Before I could enter the door, I was stopped outside.
"Ruo'er, come and see the tortoiseshell?"
"yes, how is she? Hearing what Qingyu said, she cried for a few days. ”
Sister-in-law Xing said sadly: "After being driven away, I cried at home and wiped my tears." If you don't eat food or drink water, if you continue like this, you might make trouble. ”
"Ah, then I'll go in and have a look." Du Ruoer hurried in.
The tortoiseshell lay on the bed and cried into tears.
"Why are you crying like this?" Ruo'er took Roppa and wiped her tears little by little.
The tortoiseshell didn't say a word, her eyes glazed over, as if her soul was out of her body.
Du Ruoer was distressed, "If you lose the pearl, you can't lose your soul." A few dollars can buy a human life. If you are looking for death and life, I beg Linlang to make you unable to go back for the rest of your life, see how you are. ”
"Those who can't go back, those who can't go back." The tortoiseshell cried so hard that she didn't know what to do.
"You idiot!" Ruo'er nudged and shoved, but unfortunately the nerd had already straightened his eyes and didn't pay attention to her at all.
Sister-in-law Xing came quietly and said with tears in her eyes: "She was sad after crying, and she had to cry a few times a day." No one can persuade her to come back, but only when her own heart is opened, she is willing to do it. ”
Ruo'er rolled her eyes and changed her tone, "Hey, don't you want to go back to the old lady?" Ahem, the girl said, give you a chance to atone. If you do well, go on an errand. If you can't do it well, I'll send you to the kitchen. As you howl and cry every day, no one pays attention to the city wall when you cry. ”
The tortoiseshell loosened itself, "Really? ”
"Is that still fake? As long as the girl and Linlang open their mouths to say something, isn't it easy for you to go back? ”
She turned her sadness into joy, "It's good, it's good." ”
"Great sorrow and joy, be careful of breaking your heart." Du Ruoer laughed and persuaded her.
"How do you turn your merit into sin? Retrieve that box of pearls? ”
Ruo'er frowned and said, "Yes, where did you forget the beads?" ”
"I, I don't think it's near Sokagein. I met Liu Dan and Hua Dai, as well as a few little girls from Shujingyuan. It was played around for a while, and then it was gone. ”
Du Ruoer hurriedly asked, "Are you sure it's Shujingyuan?" ”
"Ah, it's the old pine tree behind the corridor of Shujing Courtyard, and there's a stone platform down there, I left things there, and then I looked for it and it was gone." Tears welled up in the tortoiseshell's eyes.
She asked, "Is it only the people of Shujingin who see it?" ”
The tortoiseshell was crazy that day, and I don't know if there was anyone else, "I didn't see anyone else in that place." ”
"That place is close to the house of the night women, maybe they don't know." Ruo'er continued to ask.
"Yes, there are like Jin Shi Niang again, I don't know if there are still those like that."
She thought about it for a long time, but she still couldn't figure out who had trouble with her, so she took her box.
Du Ruoer said: "Let's beg Sister Linlang and ask her if she can help with the investigation." ”
"Linlang?" The tortoiseshell was very afraid of Linlang and pulled her arm, "Don't, let's find Qi Niang." She's a good talker. ”
Ruo'er urged: "Alas, Linlang is the housekeeper, you don't look for her." ”
"Okay." The tortoiseshell reluctantly followed Ruo'er to find Linlang.
went to the west courtyard, and while the old lady was talking to the girl, she called Linlang out.
Linlang smiled gently, "What are you looking for me for?" ”
Tortoiseshell blushed, "I want to get that box of beads back." She looked down at the ground, not daring to look into Linlang's eyes.
"Later, I'll go in and talk to the old lady."
The tortoiseshell stamped her feet anxiously, and Ruo'er, who couldn't stand it, comforted her.
After Linlang showed the old lady, she explained the matter to Xia Qiniang.
"Do you know who took the beads?"
She shook her head, "I don't know, I went to play with the girls of Shujingyuan, so I put the beads on the stone under the old pine tree." ”
"The pine tree on the back porch? There aren't many people who usually go. ”
"Because there are few people, I'll let it go." Tortoiseshell's tone was weak.
Linlang asked bluntly: "Hey, are the girls from Shujing Academy?" ”
Ruo'er said, "There may be those who stayed at night, and the house they live in is quite close to that." ”
"It's Mrs. Liu who went to the night, you go and ask her first. Sookei-in, I asked the girl what she meant. ”
The tortoiseshell said in a low voice: "Mrs. Liu has a very bad temper, and we are all afraid of her. ”
Linlang said lightly: "What can there be to be afraid of?" You are the one who caused the trouble, of course, you have to ask for yourself. With that, he brushed his sleeves and left.
The tortoiseshell froze in place, "That Mrs. Liu has a strange temper, I don't want to see her face." ”
"Oh, Sister Linlang is right, you should go to her yourself."
The tortoiseshell stepped back, "Don't, don't, I'm afraid of that mother-in-law." ”
Ruo'er could only say, "What can I do then?" You won't beg the old lady to spare you. Is it possible to cry at home for the rest of your life? ”
She pouted, "Okay, I'll go with you." It's just, don't tell Yun'er. ”
Mrs. Liu often beats and scolds her, and if she is also involved, then she will be too sorry for her.
"Okay, you can go with me."
Du Ruoer is determined to help the tortoiseshell get the pearl back.
They went to Mrs. Liu's lower room. Seeing Mrs. Liu taking a nap alone, Ruo'er went to call her.
"Liu Po, Liu Po."
Mrs. Liu opened her eyes, "Who is it?" ”
Ruo'er saw that her eyes were half-open and half-closed, but she still hadn't fully awakened, so she pushed again.
Liu Po cheered up, "What are you doing?" ”
"The girl wants me to ask you if you see a box of beads." Ruo'er compared the size, "It's so big." ”
She replied, "No." Picking up a pearl is such a good thing, can it fall on my head? ”
"You have to tell you the truth, you didn't pick up the night."
