Knowing that the Xu family couldn't control her for a while, Xu Yu was in a good mood, and pestered Xu Shu to stay in Jingyuan for one night, "Ninth sister, I won't go back today, now everyone in the family is in danger, no one can take care of anyone, I'm afraid that I won't even stutter or even have a basin of hot water, and I will be hungry when I go back, and I will be alone, so you let me stay here with you, okay?" ”

Xu Shu was afraid that Zhuang Li would be bumped into by Xu Yu when he came back, and he couldn't explain clearly, so he hesitated and refused to agree to her, "It's okay for you to come and go, it's just that it's not good for your daughter who hasn't left the cabinet to stay outside!" ”

Xu Wan pouted, "You are not an outsider, you are my own sister, do you still have people gossiping when I live with you?" ”

Xu Shu still didn't follow, "Although I am your own sister, but in the eyes of outsiders, I am a dead person!" ”

Xu Wan didn't give up, and tried her best to be coquettish, "Ninth Sister ~ Ninth Sister ~ Can you bear to see me go back and suffer alone?" ”

Xu Shu couldn't bear it anymore, so she had to nod and agree, "Okay, I'll keep you for one day, just one day!" But you have to send someone back to make it clear, lest they look for you everywhere! Bring your change of clothes with you! ”

Xu Shu nodded excitedly, ran out and told Danfeng to send a letter to the Xu family to go back, Xu Shu also secretly sent someone to instruct the gatehouse, so that Zhuang Li would go directly to Qixia Courtyard after he returned, and don't show his face in Lingxue Courtyard, so as not to run into Xu Yu who couldn't explain clearly.

It's just that Zhuang Li didn't take the usual road when he came back, didn't go from the front door, and came in directly from the back wall over the wall, all the way to Lingxue Courtyard unimpeded, and the maids in the courtyard didn't expect Zhuang Li to come directly to Ling Xue Courtyard after crossing the gatehouse, and suspected that Zhuang Li was in a hurry to discuss with Xu Shu, and he didn't dare to stop him for fear of delaying the business, so he asked Zhuang Li to enter the house after hesitation, and he couldn't stop it.

Xu Shu noticed it when Zhuang Li stepped into the courtyard, and knew that it was useless to block it, so he simply calmed down.

Zhuang Li thought that there was no one else in the house, so he came in with a big grin, but he didn't expect that there were other people in the room besides Xu Shu, so he suddenly became cautious, looked at Xu Shu, looked at Xu Shu, and felt familiar, but he couldn't tell where he was familiar, seeing that Xu Shu was also looking at him curiously, he hurriedly turned his head and asked Xu Shu, "...... is this?" Since you have a guest here, I'll ...... Let's go first! ”

"It's not an outsider, sit down, Yuzhu, serve tea!" Xu Shu calmly pointed to the chair next to him, seeing that Xu Shu was so calm, Zhuang Li sat honestly, but guessed Xu Shu's identity in his heart.

Xu Shu was brewing a language to make up a suitable identity for Zhuang Li to perfunctory Xu Wei, but Xu Shu suddenly said after looking at Zhuang Li, "Ninth sister, is this the ninth brother-in-law?" ”

"Ahem...... cough ......" Xu Shu's words were interrupted abruptly, and she choked in her throat in one breath, and suddenly coughed non-stop, and Xu Shu hurriedly gave her relief.

"Poof......" Zhuang Li sprayed himself after listening to a sip of tea, and immediately understood that the person in front of him should be Xu Shu's sister, the tenth miss of the Xu family.

"What nonsense!" Xu Shu relieved his breath and pinched Xu Yu reproachfully, "This is Zhuang Gongzi, who came back from the north with me, and I am gracious, don't make a mistake!" ”

Xu Wan hurriedly raised her eyebrows and greeted Zhuang Li, "Zhuang Gongzi is well!" ”

Zhuang Li returned the salute, in the end, he still felt that there was one more person who was not very comfortable, and he happened to be wet with tea, so he hurried out under the pretext of changing clothes, and hurriedly led him to Qixia Courtyard by stepping on the snow.

On the way, Zhuang Li thought about Xu Yao's sentence "Ninth Brother-in-law", and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile, no matter how this title sounds, it makes people feel happy, this little girl of the Xu family is really good, she can speak, and she is very cute!

As soon as Zhuang left, Xu Wei couldn't help but approach Xu Shu, her eyes flashing with a sparkling light, "Ninth sister...... Did you come back with him? Xu Wan elongated her tone, unable to hide her excitement and gossip at all.

"Little monkey, what do you want!" Xu Shu pushed away Xu Jiao's close head and "explained" leisurely, "I can come back all the way to rely on Zhuang Gongzi to take care of all the way, but don't think crookedly, the relationship between me and Zhuang Gongzi is not what you think!" ”

"Then what are you like Zhuang Gongzi?" Xu Yao's eyes widened and waited for Xu Shu's next words.

Xu Shu said vaguely, "Anyway, it's not what you think!" As for the rest, you'll find out later! ”

Xu Shu pouted and was unhappy, but Xu Shu ignored her, Xu Shu was obsessed for a while, but this time Xu Shu was determined not to eat her, Xu Shu had nothing to do, and she drooped her shoulders listlessly, so Xu Shu asked someone to lead Xu Shu out to enjoy the scenery.

That day, when Xu Wan came in disguise and followed the Li family, she saw the scenery of Jingyuan, and when she heard that she could enjoy it carefully, she couldn't be angry, and went happily.

Xu Shu asked someone to make a bed for Xu Wei in the blue yarn cupboard, and Danfeng, who happened to go back to Xu's house to deliver the letter, came back, "The second lady who went back is at the old lady's place, and the door of Songde Hall is locked, and the slave and maid can't get in, so they report to the master, and the master is approved, and said that Miss Ten wants to stay for a while is also made!" ”

Xu Shu nodded, and asked Danfeng to work with Treadon Snow to clean up Xu Wei's bed, and asked her while busy, "You just said that the second aunt went to Songde Hall, and Songde Hall also locked it?" Is something wrong? ”

Danfeng lowered his head, not knowing whether to talk about it or not.

"Since you've inquired about everything, wouldn't it be a waste of your energy not to tell it!"

Xu Shu knew that she had inquired, and it seemed that she intended to take Xu Yu away, just to ask herself, and Dan Feng didn't hide it, "The accounts of the public middle school have been counted clearly, large and small, there are thirty or forty items missing in total, all of which are of great value, and each of them is the best that can be taken!" In addition to those objects, the silver in the gong was also missing tens of thousands of taels, and all of them were embezzled by the eldest lady! ”

How can the housekeeper's wife not be greedy for the silver in the public office, as long as she doesn't go too far, everyone will turn a blind eye to the past, but everyone is also greedy for small profits, deducting shares, like the Li family is so bold and reckless, there are really not many people who directly embezzle the property in the public school, especially the Li family was born in the Li family, a noble family with a strict family style, but greedy for money, which is really ironic!

The old lady called the eldest lady to ask in a fit of anger, but the eldest lady didn't admit it, so the old lady arrested the people around the eldest lady one by one and asked, but they also said they didn't know, at this time Miss Xuexiang suddenly ran and said that the eldest lady's money and belongings were kept by Mingxiu, and the old lady moved the family law against Mingxiu, and Mingxiu couldn't bear it, so she said it all!"

"Is it really the eldest lady who is greedy for ink?"

Danfeng nodded, "Mingxiu handed over the eldest lady's private accounts, every penny and every object that the eldest lady took from the princess remembered it clearly, the old lady was angry, when the slave came out, she was listening to Su Ping go to the eldest lady and say that it was ...... said that the old lady was going to take a leave of absence, and the eldest lady was going to leave! ”
