Chapter 280: A thief in the house
Rong Ruize's words caused a commotion again, and Shen Yanru began to accuse Gu Jingtong of having bad intentions, buying inferior and spoiled tea on the market and falsely claiming to be a treasure at home to deceive Mrs. Rong.
The two brothers Rong Zhenguo also couldn't help but say a few words to her angrily, only Lin Cui'e's face was a little unnatural and she didn't say anything.
Old Madam Rong spoke again: "Okay, don't shout yet, I think it's better for Miss Gu to take a good look at herself, what is going on with this tea." ”
Gu Jingtong hurriedly took the tea and looked at it carefully.
At this glance, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Although at a glance, this cake Pu'er is very similar to the one she gave to Mrs. Rong, but if you look closely, the color is lighter, and when you smell it again, there is a faint musty smell.
She immediately concluded that the tea had been dropped.
Looking at Rong Ruize, Gu Jingtong said solemnly: "This is not the tea I gave to the old lady. ”
Rong Ruize raised his eyebrows: "That's strange, you didn't send this tea, where did it come from?" ”
"I don't know about that." Gu Jingtong had already guessed in her heart that someone was going to frame her, but there were so many people in this room, who could it be?
Lin Cui'e asked, "Miss Gu, this tea was obviously given to the old lady by you, why do you say it's not?" ”
"The tea I gave to the old lady is indeed more than 20 years of Pu'er, at that time the old lady Rong was full of praise after drinking it, although I don't know much about tea, but I think it is very good after drinking a cup. It's only been a few days, but the tea has changed, not to mention drinking, it smells musty, I'm afraid that someone will drop it! If you don't believe me, you can take a look. Gu Jingtong said and handed the tea to Lin Cui'e.
Lin Cui'e didn't take the tea, but smiled: "I don't like to drink tea, and I don't know anything about tea, so I can't understand it if you show me." ”
"Show me!" Shen Yanru took the tea leaves, looked at them and smelled them, and there was indeed a musty smell.
She frowned and asked, "It's strange, the tea leaves are good at home, who has nothing to do to do this kind of thing?" Also, Mom, why didn't you drink it at the time? ”
A strange look flashed in Old Madam Rong's eyes, and then she coughed lightly and said, "I've had a little cold these days, and I don't eat anything at all, so I haven't drunk it." ”
Gu Jingtong's heart moved, and he glanced at Old Madam Rong deeply.
She stayed by the old lady's side every day, and knew very well that the old lady didn't have a cold at all, so she was afraid that she was trying to hide something.
The tea brewed by the moldy Pu'er can be drunk as soon as you drink it, and the taste is different, with Mrs. Rong's many years of experience in tea tasting, even if she really has a cold, she can drink it.
It's a pity that she didn't drink tea this morning because of her period, otherwise, she should have been able to drink it.
Rong Ruize took the tea from Shen Yanru's hand, raised it and shook it, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneer: "Could it be that who knows that the tea leaves for more than 20 years are very valuable, and quietly drop the bag and sell it?" ”
"How is this possible? There are no thieves in the house! Shen Yanru suddenly felt a little uneasy, Rong Mingkai has always been big-hearted, and recently because she ran to act, she cut off his financial resources in a fit of anger, could he have done it?
After all, Yung Mingkai had stolen her money before.
Old Madam Rong frowned: "It seems that the family has been robbed!" Ruize, this matter will be handed over to you, you had better stay at home these days, and find out this matter well, which can be regarded as a clean slate for Miss Gu. ”
Rong Ruize was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Okay, I will definitely help you find out, but you don't have to move back to live." ”
