Xie Chongning didn't care about Mu Yu and continued to pretend to be stupid, but after Mu Yu touched the bell, he said coldly, "My money bag has fallen." ”

"Huh?" Mu Yu blinked suspiciously, like an innocent rabbit, "Could it be that there are really thieves at this banquet?" Even Master Xie dared to steal his money bag? ”

"......" Xie Chongning suddenly remembered Lin Changjin's sword spike, which was made by this girl herself, and the ghost sent the god to say this.

However, Mu Yu didn't know what Xie Chongning's brainless words meant, but when she asked again, Xie Chongning didn't answer.

Gradually, all the guests touched the bell, and Lin Changjin stood at the entrance of another courtyard, checking the hands of each guest, as long as there was black ink on their hands, they could pass.

Fang Xiao and Qin Xu looked at the black ink on their hands, and suddenly understood this so-called divine clock.

The bell was painted with black ink, and they first tricked it up by saying that if they touched it, they could find out if someone else was lying, and the purpose was to make the real thief nervous.

If the person who did not steal the ear bell would not be afraid to touch the bell, but the thief had some scruples in his heart and did not dare to touch the bell.

So whoever doesn't have ink in his hands is a thief.

But all the guests had already arrived, but there was still no thief.

"It seems that this ghost is really the ghost of the Li family." Fang Xiao sat back and waited to see the Li family's jokes.

"Found it." Lin Changjin intercepted a maid from the Li Mansion, "My lord, the thief has been caught." ”

The little girl cowered, her face turned pale, and the answer was obvious.

"Take the bell out." Xie Chongning said coldly.

The little maid was reluctant to cooperate, shaking her head and denying, "I don't know, I didn't take any earrings." ”

Li Miaozhen couldn't have imagined that Dali Temple caught someone from the Li Mansion, the maid in her own house stole the ear bell, and she still did such a thing at the banquet, then she would definitely become the laughing stock of the capital.

"Master Xie has no evidence, how do you know that it was my maid from the Li Mansion who stole the earring?"

Fang Xiao and Qin Xu saw that the maid did not have any ink on her hands, and they were also convinced of the result in their hearts.

"Miss Li, you might as well take a look, the people we came over have ink on their hands, and this maid from your Li Mansion has very clean hands." Fang Xiao squinted, full of fun.

"Ink?" Li Miaozhen was puzzled, "What can this ink mean?" ”

"The divine bell is covered with ink, as long as you touch it, it will be stained with ink, and anyone who has no ghost in your heart will obey Lord Xie's request, and the reason why we can pass is precisely because we all touched the bell." Fang Xiao seemed to explain to Li Miaozhen empathetically, and stretched out his hand stained with ink.

Qin Xu was also quite face-saving, and also showed the ink on his hands.

Li Miaozhen was furious and glared at her maid, "Say, did you take the ear bell?" ”

Fang Xiao prevented the maid from having a hard mouth, and threatened on the side, "It's okay if you don't admit it, the punishment of Dali Temple has a way to make you tell the truth." ”

Seeing this, the maid knelt on the ground with a "plop", and stammered to explain that she had only picked up the ear bell and had not returned it.

But whether it is stealing or picking up, others don't care at all, this farce has finally passed, and Li Miaozhen has successfully become a joke in the whole capital.

And Xie Chongning was praised by the emperor because of the divine bell, and Lin Changjin was also promoted from Dali Temple to Shaoqing of Dali Temple, which can be regarded as a great joy.

Some people are happy and some people are worried, Mu Yu's sonorous and powerful struggle with Li Miaozhen that day has already been imprinted in the eyes of people with a heart, and Mu Yu experienced the feeling of being stepped on the threshold by a matchmaker for the first time.

Fortunately, Mu Heyun and Shen Mei love her very much, and they will not easily give her to others.

The world is full of fragrant flowers in April, the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are in full bloom, and the Mu Mansion also ushered in a happy event, Mu Yi was promoted to Zhaowu Captain in the military camp, although it is only a six-grade school, but he can go home.

Even the old lady was as serious as before, her temper was much milder, and she was happy with the big room, but the second and third rooms were not happy at all.

If the eldest grandson Mu Yi is not there, Mu Liangxuan will be favored by the old lady, if Mu Yi comes back, won't Mu Liangxuan's status decline? How can Sanfang be happy?

There is also the second room that is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, the big room and the three rooms are originally restrained by each other, and the days are calm, this Mu Yi has been promoted and comes back, isn't the big house a big one?

Both rooms were unstable in their hearts, and they looked for the old lady one after another, wanting to find out what the old lady meant.

Mu Yu asked the old lady to say goodbye every day, and before she sat down on her ass, she saw that Mrs. Ruyang was dressed up luxuriously, with a golden step on her head, and she also came to say hello to the old lady with a twist.

The time of their three rooms is fixed every day, adhering to the principle that they are out of sight and out of mind, and they will come to greet each other when they come, and they generally will not bump into each other.

Mrs. Ruyang raised her eyebrows in surprise when she saw Mu Yu, "Ah, the rumor is also there, you said that after you were frightened, the third aunt didn't take a good look at you, so let the third aunt take a closer look at how you are recovering?" ”

After that, Mrs. Ruyang grabbed Mu Yu's hand that stretched out to take the teacup, and looked left and then with concern.

To say that although this Mrs. Ruyang has a high spirit, she is also the most beautiful in front of the old lady, otherwise how could the fool of Mu Liangxuan in the third room be the most favored?

Mu Yu was close to Mrs. Ruyang, and this Mrs. Ruyang's face was smeared with a thick layer of rouge, but she could still see the dark green under her eyes, thinking that Mu Yi was coming back, so that the three rooms could not sleep well.

"Third aunt, I'm fine." Mu Yu politely withdrew his hand and rubbed it with a handkerchief at an angle that Mrs. Ruyang couldn't see.

"Sure enough, people are in good spirits on happy occasions!" Mrs. Ruyang looked at the old lady with a smile, "As soon as this Yi'er comes back, my mother is even more complex." ”

The old lady nodded, "No, that unfilial son sent Yi'er to the barracks, and he went for seven years, and every year when Yi'er came back, he just took a quick look, and then he had to leave again." ”

"Then mother doesn't have to worry about it this time, Yi'er is now a captain of Zhaowu, and she can stay in the capital." Seeing that the old lady was so happy, Mrs. Ruyang laughed together, but the arc was extremely stiff.

Mu Yu coldly watched Mrs. Ruyang perform alone, and took a sip of tea, before the teacup touched his mouth, an emerald green figure appeared at the door, it was Liu Ying in the second room.

"What kind of wind is blowing today, my brother and daughter-in-law actually came to say hello so early?" Liu Ying rolled her eyes unsubtly.

Mrs. Ruyang was not far behind, and immediately pushed back, "It's all three poles in the morning, it's not early." ”

Liu Ying snorted coldly, walked to the position on the old lady's right and sat down, and said flatteringly, "Mother's eldest grandson is coming back, and this mother also has a smile on her face." ”

"Look at what you said, my mother has always had a smile on her face, and you didn't see that it was because you didn't let your mother worry." After Mrs. Ruyang finished speaking, she was afraid that Liu Ying would not be angry, so she said to Mu Yuhe kindly, "Yu'er, you said that the third aunt said yes." ”

The war between these two jackals, Mu Yu didn't want to get involved, "I'm a junior, how can I speak in front of the two aunts!" ”

The old lady was in a good mood, although she could not care about the chatter of these two people, but the endless quarrel between the two people was really unbearable, "Mu Yu, your mother prepared a reception banquet for your eldest brother, how are you preparing?" ”

Mu Yu took the book from Biyue's hand, "Grandmother, this is the menu, please take a look." With that, she flipped through the menu and presented it with both hands.

The old lady stared at the menu, the more she looked at it, the more serious it became, she wrung her eyebrows, and said unhappily, "What kind of poor sauerkraut did your eldest brother prepare when he came home?" Is our Luanping Marquis Mansion short of money? ”

Mu Yu expected that there would be such a thing, the last time the old lady failed to vent her anger for Mu Liangxuan, she must have to find it back. So no matter what the menu looks like this time, the old lady will definitely be able to find faults.

Listening to the old lady's reprimand, Mu Yu calmly took out another menu from Biyue's hand, "If grandmother is not satisfied, there is a better one here, which is made according to grandmother's preferences, grandmother, please take a look." ”

The old lady was stunned for a moment, obviously she didn't expect Mu Yu to have this hand, and said impatiently while taking the menu, "Your eldest brother hasn't tasted the dishes at home for seven years, what are you going to do with my favorite food?" Is your mother brainless? ”

Mrs. Ruyang covered the smile at the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, Liu Ying was obviously not very smart, and laughed out loud with a "poof", and was glared at by the old lady angrily before holding back the smile.

Although Mu Yu was annoyed, but in the end, because the old lady was an elder, she gritted her silver teeth and reluctantly smiled, and took out the third menu from Biyue's hand, "What grandmother said is that my mother also loves my eldest brother, so on this third menu prepared, there are dishes that my brother likes." ”

Three menus were placed in front of the old lady, and she wanted to see what she could say even if the old lady made it difficult.

The old lady was extremely embarrassed, and this Mu rumor saw the tricks, and she seemed to be particularly unreasonable. She stared at the menu with a blue face, as if the menu was Shen Mei's mother and daughter.

"Mother hesitated for a long time, I don't know how to choose, grandmother, you are an elder, this menu should be chosen by you, we listen to you." Mu Yu gave the old lady a step.

I was angry, and Mu Yu's goal was achieved, no matter how the old lady said it, she was also an elder, so she couldn't be too ugly.

"Then this last one." The old lady flipped through it casually, but she didn't know if she could see the style of the dish clearly, so she threw the menu to Mu Yu.

Mu Yu took it with both hands respectfully, and handed it to Biyue, "I heard what my grandmother said, my grandmother chose this menu, and you let the chef do it according to the menu." ”

As far as the old lady's calculating personality is concerned, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not settle accounts after the autumn, Mu Yu said this to everyone, which is to break the old lady's idea of exploiting loopholes.

Mrs. Ruyang glanced at Mu Yu up and down, she had underestimated this girl before, and this girl was probably better than Shen Mei.

"Does Grandmother have any other instructions?" The juniors are not as thoughtful as their grandmothers, and if their grandmothers are not satisfied, tell us that we will change. ”

"Hmph, I see you're much more thoughtful than I am!" The old lady sneered, "Prepare three menus, and your ghost mother will come up with it." ”
