Chapter 61: Paper Money
"What's wrong, what's wrong."
Old Lady Xiao didn't hear the voice, but she arrived first, and when she saw the scene in front of her, she not only took two steps back.
The others also came, and they were all as startled as the old lady.
A girl sat on the ground and almost cried.
She just got up to take a look, but she didn't expect to meet someone burning paper money in the Xiao Mansion, which was a bad omen.
And seeing dead people's things is a very unfortunate thing.
According to the old lady's appearance of believing in ghosts and gods, this matter will never be easily stopped.
In the backyard, paper money is scattered everywhere, along with paper money in the lake, and there is a basin by the lake, the paper money in the basin is burned to ashes, the wind blows up, even the smell is very choking, there are two candles in front of the basin, the candles are burning vertically, and the wax slowly drips down the body to the ground, condensing into a piece.
Seeing that the core has only burned a little, it is conceivable that it has just been lit.
The cool breeze is whistling, and with such a scene, it looks even more gloomy.
Anyone who sees it thinks it's not normal, and even more so that it's unlucky.
The old lady has ordered that this thing cannot be burned in the Xiao Mansion a long time ago, who is so bold and dares to disobey the old lady today?
Is this a death?
"Who did this?" Although the old lady asked flatly, her face had already expressed anger.
Seeing that the old lady was angry, everyone was dumbfounded, and they didn't dare to say a word, let alone speak out.
"Do you dare to do it, but don't you dare to admit it? If I stand up and admit my mistakes now, I will not punish them, and if I catch them, then I will punish them severely. The old lady glanced at the people around her, the ladies and ladies of each family, and the many maids behind her.
But her eyes fell on Xiao Changge, as if she wanted to see her through.
If others saw Mrs. Xiao's eyes, they would really be afraid, but Xiao Changge smiled at Mrs. Xiao instead, only to see Mrs. Xiao snort and stop looking at her, but her face was darker than just now.
"No one admits it?" Old Lady Xiao saw that no one stood up and said coldly.
"Okay, if no one admits it, then don't blame me for being ruthless, Mama Li, you go to the manager to find out whose death date is today, and find out those people."
The old lady shouted sharply, and Mama Li answered and followed the manager to check.
The maid who comes to the door every year must be innocent in family affairs, and the manager also has a registration there, if the family affairs are not innocent, they will not want it, for fear of causing something or the other party is ill-intentioned, so what is left in the family on these death days and birthdays will be clear.
"Mother, don't be angry, this matter will be investigated."
Yan stepped forward to comfort him, as if he was really afraid that the old lady would be angry.
"Mother is right about grandma, this matter is not urgent, let's wait for the news of Mama Li." Xiao Yayan immediately took the lead, and when she saw Old Lady Xiao looking at her, she immediately lowered her head and realized that she had said too much.
This didn't even speak to anyone else, what did she say?
And she also saw that Yan's eyes were a little warning when he looked at her.
Xiao Changge glanced at Xiao Yayan, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he thought about the sneaky appearance of Jiao'er today, and immediately became a little clear.
The old lady has spoken, who dares to ask to leave?
Even Yuan's big belly has to stand and can't leave, if the old lady usually takes care of Yuan's, after all, I don't know if it's a boy or a girl in this belly, if it's a boy, then Yuan's is also a meritorious service, but today's old lady is iron-faced and selfless, and no one will let go.
I'm afraid that if this matter can't find out a result, the old lady won't let anyone go.
After a while, Mama Li and the manager returned, and Mama Li stood in front of the old lady in a regular manner.
"Old lady, there is only one person named Yuanluan who has a relative in her family who has passed away, but she has rushed back to her hometown a while ago to arrange for her father's funeral."
Mama Li commanded honestly, and the old lady answered.
Red Sleeves chuckled in his heart, and glanced at Xiao Changge slightly.
Xiao Changge looked at the old lady, the hands in his sleeves were already clenched, but there was a smile on his lips.
"Grandma, no relatives have passed away now, but our young lady in this mansion has, if Yan'er remembers correctly, Sister Changge's mother's death date is today."
Xiao Yayan reminded coldly, and everyone looked at Xiao Changge with their eyes brushed.
These eyes looked at her nakedly, some questioned and some watched the show, all waiting for Xiao Changge to come out.
Even the old lady looked at Xiao Changge after Xiao Yayan's reminder.
She really forgot that today is the death day of the woman who disgraced the Xiao family, and this slut really can't even die peacefully.
"My sister is really touched to know my mother's death day so much."
Xiao Changge opened his mouth slightly and said coldly.
Just when everyone thought that Xiao Changge would refute, they heard her say this.
"Changge, didn't you do this!"
The old lady questioned, but Hu Shi looked at Xiao Yayan with some confusion, and sighed in his heart, afraid that this matter was inseparable from her cigarettes.
Otherwise, how could a person like Xiao Yayan who has no heart and lungs and a bad memory remember these things.
"Since my mother's death, grandma you have given an order, there must be no paper money in this Xiao Mansion, let alone condolences for anyone, the chief knows that this is a rule set by grandma, how can he break it?" Xiao Changge said with a pitiful look, even those who were watching almost thought that someone was bullying her.
"Grandma, this is not necessarily, maybe someone just wants to secretly burn paper money behind your back."
Xiao Yayan immediately choked up, but Xiao Changge didn't speak again, but waited for Old Lady Xiao to make a decision.
Right and wrong, old lady, she is not stupid.
"Old lady, when the slave maid came, she also saw someone going to the small courtyard to the west...... Run. ”
The maid who was so frightened that she sat on the ground glanced at Xiao Changge, and didn't even dare to say a word when she saw her eyes.
The small courtyard in the west is where Xiao Changge lives!
Doesn't this mean that even if this matter is not Xiao Changge's doing, it is inseparable from Xiao Changge?
And what the maid said seemed to be true, so that those people were convinced.
Xiao Changge realized that the maid in front of him was in the same group as Xiao Yayan, or she deliberately attracted these people.
It is an unfortunate thing to have paper money in the Xiao Mansion, and besides, the old lady Xiao has already made a rule that there must be no paper money in the Xiao Mansion, or anything burned to the dead, but someone disobeys her words and does so, isn't this a disguised challenge to the authority of the old lady.
It's no wonder that God is so angry.
Everyone kept looking at Xiao Changge, hoping that Xiao Changge could give an explanation, if this matter was not clarified, I am afraid that no one would be able to leave today.
And some of them were related to Xiao Changge, and I couldn't help but sprinkle my anger on Xiao Changge.
If it weren't for Xiao Changge, they would have been able to fall asleep on the bed at this time, how could they be here to suffer with them.
Thinking of this, they all felt that it was Xiao Changge's fault.
Especially Xiao Muran, when they saw that it was related to Xiao Changge, they didn't know how to curse her in their hearts.
If she hadn't sowed discord last time, there wouldn't have been anything between her and Ming Fei, so that although she reconciled with Xiao Wanqing, Ming Fei ignored her for several days, which made her spend a lot of effort to coax Ming Fei.
This Xiao Changge is a slut, a slut who specializes in sowing discord and seducing other people's men.
She had also heard about Xiao Changge's disfigurement before, and when she saw it today, she couldn't help but smile in her heart, this is really ugly.
I'm afraid that any one of them in the Xiao Mansion can be compared to Xiao Changge, and even the girl who washes the dishes in the kitchen is several times better looking than Xiao Changge, at least she has no scars on her face.
Seeing Xiao Changge like this, Xiao Muran and Xiao Wanqing looked at each other and smiled, as if they knew what the other party was thinking.
After hearing that Xiao Changge was disfigured, they had always wanted to look at it, but they couldn't find a chance, and now they finally had the opportunity to see their faces, and it was a good time for this face to be ruined.
Now Xiao Changge is afraid that no one will come to the door to propose marriage!
"Changge, don't you feel like you owe me an explanation?" God's eyes swept towards Xiao Changge coldly, Xiao Changge had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes looked at the maid kneeling on the ground.
"Grandma, I just saw a man running out of my yard and screaming and luring you all out."
Xiao Changge's eyes fell on the maid on the ground and said coldly.
Hearing Xiao Changge's words, the face of the maid kneeling on the ground changed, and she was a little anxious.
"Miss, don't you spew blood! The slave and maid happened to hear a sound in the back garden, but unexpectedly saw a back running away, and the slave and maid chased after and saw this scene before shouting! The maid explained, but her face was anxious.
Seeing that none of them spoke, the maid knelt down and walked up to the old lady and kowtowed a few times.
There was a thumping sound as his forehead rubbed against the floor, and everyone in the back garden was so calm that they could only hear the sound of the violent impact.
"That's enough, get up."
If you continue to kowtow like this, you will break your head, the old lady shouted, but the maid did not dare to get up.
"The slave and the maid dare not get up, the slave and the maid only ask the old lady to return the slave and the maid a clean slate, my mother has been teaching the slave and the maid to be diligent and honest, what the slave and the maid said today is true, but the eldest lady has wronged the slave and the maid, so how dare the slave and the maid get up? Old lady, the slave only begs the lady to return the slave and the maid to innocence, otherwise the slave and maid can only die to make their will clear. ”
The maid knelt on the ground and refused to get up, which was quite threatening.
And the old lady has always disliked the most is that someone threatens her, but today the situation is a little different.
He will never give up on this matter if he doesn't find it out!
She gave an order more than ten years ago, this kind of thing is never allowed in the house, no one has dared to do it for more than ten years, how can someone do this kind of thing today, and it is the death day of that slut!
And today is the death day of that slut, and the old lady also feels that this matter is inseparable from Xiao Changge, who else would do such a thing except her.
"It's not easy to die, so why say so much?"
After Xiao Changge finished speaking, he took out a dagger from his sleeve and threw it in front of the maid, and the maid was startled with a bang.
Naturally, the dagger thrown to the maid was not the one Chu Yu gave her.
It's really not worth it to do such a thing with that dagger.
The maid was originally talking, but she never thought that Xiao Changge had this thing on her!
"Sister Changge, how can you have such a thing on you, this is a sharp weapon, it won't be good if you hurt someone."
Xiao Changle said in fear, and even his face looked a little scared.
"If people don't hurt me, I won't hurt anyone, not to mention that my knife is just for self-defense, and my sister doesn't need to panic."
Xiao Changge smiled coldly and looked at Xiao Changle's harmless face.
The maid gritted her teeth, and seeing that the old lady had no intention of dissuading, she leaned over and picked up the dagger, and opened it.
The knife is sharp and sharp.
And with her pale face printed on it, the maid paused, and finally took the tip of the knife and stabbed herself in the heart.
"Stop."
Just when the dagger almost pierced the maid's chest, the old lady finally spoke, and it was almost like that, the dagger was about to pierce the chest.
Hearing the old lady's words, the maid stopped, and sighed in her heart.
If the old lady didn't shout to stop, then she would really be dead.
Xiao Changge sneered, if the old lady didn't shout, the maid wouldn't dare to joke with her life.
After all, people are fragile in the face of death.
