Chapter 59: The Thief
Xia Sihan went out boldly, but the stick in his hand didn't come in handy, because the black shadow in front of the door had already fainted from being frightened by the wind! When the wind saw her come out, he whimpered and stepped aside, and Bai Sensen's teeth made people shudder to watch.
By candlelight, Xia Sihan saw the man, with two blood holes in his legs, and it seemed that he had been bitten lightly.
"Sihan, do you see it?"
The mother-in-law called out to her behind her, and Xia Sihan turned around and waved her hand to signal her not to come. whispered: "Mother, you went next door and called someone to help report to the official, and you said that you were a thief." ”
Mother Li didn't dare to slack off, so she hurriedly went out to report to the official. While the thief was still unconscious, Xia Sihan lit a few torches to illuminate the courtyard. When the official came, the courtyard was already surrounded by many neighbors who had been woken up by this movement, and when the man just woke up, when he opened his eyes, he saw the wind gnashing his teeth at him, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly hugged the leg of the official who was closest to him.
Xia Sihan's eyes were sharp, staring at his face, which was pale from being bitten by the wind and had lost too much blood. Although she didn't live in Shangshu Mansion for a long time in her previous life, she still remembered the doglegs around those masters. Now when he heard that the man was about to speak, Xia Sihan preemptively said: "Official, we are also our own family. As soon as I lay down, I heard the sound of a dog barking outside, and our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were timid, and they waited for a long time before they dared to come out, but they saw this thief wandering in the yard. If I hadn't bought this wolf dog two days ago and came back to take care of it, I'm afraid that this bit of our mother's belongings would have been stolen. ”
Xia Sihan was born beautiful, but now she is holding her mother-in-law with a handkerchief, crying pear blossoms with rain, anyone who sees it will feel pity, not to mention that what she said is also the truth.
"Take this thief away! The Son of Heaven dares to do such an act at his feet, madam, don't worry, I will be interrogated strictly when I go back! ”
The face of the person frightened by the official's words was even more defeated, and he immediately shouted injustice: "My lord misunderstood, she is the eldest lady of our family, the daughter of Shangshu Mansion, we are here to find her to go back!" ”
Xia Sihan clenched his fists tightly when he heard this, it's all at this time, since they are shameless, then they don't have to give face. When the official heard him say this, he turned his head to look at Xia Sihan again, and he didn't know what to judge for a while.
Xia Sihan stepped forward and bent his knees slightly: "Didn't the official master be coaxed by his two words?" Not to mention whether my identity is true or false, even if it is true, how can there be any reason to climb over the courtyard wall in the middle of the night? I don't think he's here to ask me to go back, he's here to ask for my life! ”
The official heard that what she said was reasonable, and immediately groped for the thief, and he really searched for the incense!
"Okay, you are a stingy villain, how dare you say nothing? Let me go! So saying, he took him by the back of the neck and carried him out.
Xia Sihan was afraid of change, so he reminded him: "Official, this person is a wolf and ambitious, and now we are all shops and restaurants, I am afraid that he still has accomplices." The loss of property is nothing, for fear of causing death, you see......"
"You can rest assured, we will directly hand it over to Dali Temple for processing, and someone will definitely be sent to search it."
"It's so good, thank you for the official, there is the official master." Xia Sihan quietly stuffed a piece of silver into his hand, the official knew her worries, and if she went to Dali Temple, she would definitely not let this thief leave alive.
And the little guy was really frightened, and he was knocked out as soon as he screamed wronged, and dragged all the way to Dali Temple.
Finally calmed down, and after Mother Li sent the onlookers away one by one, she closed the door and went back to the house to rest.
Xia Sihan added a large piece of meat to the wind, if it weren't for it, he might really be calculated by them tonight. I don't know what he wants to do with the incense, but it's not a good thing.
Xia Sihan looked at the wall carefully, had an idea in his heart, and went back to the house to rest. The next day, I found a craftsman, bought dozens of porcelain bowls and broke them, and let them build them on the wall one by one.
When all this is done, Xia Sihan can feel at ease. I thought in my heart that there was no one in the huge courtyard, and at least two people should be found to come over as companions, otherwise if something happened in the future, there would not even be anyone to call for help.
Thinking of this, Xia Sihan found someone and bought a maid, who looked like she was only twelve or thirteen years old, and the young one could be trained well. I also asked the neighbor's aunt to introduce an old woman, who has no children and no daughters at home, her body is quite tough, and she has the right to use more pairs of chopsticks, the key is to be able to be with her mother-in-law.
After adding two people, Xia Sihan felt that there was more popularity in the yard. It's just that Li Jinyan is leaving, and she feels so much quieter. It seems that the old man is right, he still has to add a child to be more lively.
Thinking of this, Xia Sihan couldn't help blushing, how could she think of the child? Li Jinyan has been gone for more than a month, and he misses him like this.
Xia Sihan didn't expect that his feelings for Li Jinyan were so deep now. But after thinking about it, she also knew that Li Jinyan would not come back so soon. They are new recruits and have at least three months of training after entering the camp. During this period, no matter how big the matter, you are not allowed to take leave or leave the team without permission. In this way, I am afraid that I will have to stay up for a while, just the right time to adjust my body, and wait for him to come back to talk about the child.
With this lesson, it is estimated that Shangshufu will not dare to come again. Xia Yingxue was so angry that she almost vomited blood, and Chun Tao had been kneeling in the yard for several days. If it weren't for Lord Shangshu coming back to question, it is estimated that Chun Tao's life would have been lost.
"Yingxue, she still has the face to be angry here! I didn't do enough embarrassing things, and I actually found someone to turn over the incense under the courtyard wall. If it weren't for the fact that the old man still had a little thin noodles in Dali Temple, I am afraid that it would be spread all over the capital at this time. Not to mention the third prince, even the common people may not want her! ”
After Xia Shangshu came back, he smashed a few teacups in a row and was still angry, pulled Xia Yingxue to the ancestral hall and scolded her, and punished her to kneel there for three days, and was only allowed to eat one meal a day. Xia Yingxue was so frightened that she burst into tears, but she didn't dare to cry.
Mrs. Xia didn't know what was going on, but when she saw Xia Shangshu's face when she came out of the ancestral hall, she knew that Xia Yingxue must have made a big mistake this time, and immediately asked the old mother to find out what happened.
Here, Xia Shangshu walked around the room, thinking about what to do next. There is a stupid daughter at home who doesn't have a brain, and there is a shrewd girl outside, and he is very embarrassed.
At the same time, I am also curious, what kind of business is Xia Sihan doing that can attract the attention of the General's Mansion?
Xia Sihan's shop is famous because of the wedding dress, and the girl who bought the wedding dress a few times ago was praised when she came out of the cabinet, and the bride was in a good mood and helped her to publicize it.
Now Xia Sihan's shop has customers booking every day, even if there is no daughter in the family to marry, I want to buy a baby to go back to the bottom of the box.
Just making wedding dresses, the business is so good, if you do other daily clothes, I am afraid that the door will be crowded.
When she got up early in the morning, Xia Sihan opened the door of the store, but saw a familiar figure at the door, she sneered in her heart, I don't know what caused him to come in person?
Seeing Xia Sihan, a trace of displeasure flashed in Xia Shangshu's eyes, and he walked straight in.
Xia Sihan was also polite, and hurriedly greeted him: "When the distinguished guest enters the door, I don't know when the daughter of the family will get married?" We only accept the order of Sijin Clothing. ”
As soon as Xia Sihan said this, Xia Shangshu's face immediately became difficult to look at.
Who in this capital doesn't know Xia Shangshu, who was said to be a "distinguished guest" by this little girl, and also said that booking a wedding dress is such a woman's thing, and the people in the store are all looking at this side, which is really a loss of identity.
Xia Shangshu didn't want to argue with Xia Sihan here, so he raised his feet and walked to the backyard of the store, how could Xia Sihan let him come in and out at will, and stopped him.
