Chapter 58: The Stolen Pattern (2)

Steward Song shouted all the way to the main hall, where Gui Hongyuan, Yu and Gui Jingxue were having breakfast in the main hall.

"The second lady gave me a pattern early this morning, saying that the jewelry must be made in Shen, but I had a breakfast, and when I went back, the pattern on the table was gone!" Sister Song is not only ingenious in making jewelry, but also speaks quickly, but now she is afraid and confused.

"Don't worry," Gui Hongyuan said, "Think about it again, where else do you put it?" Has anyone else seen this drawing but you? ”

Sister Song calmed down and recalled: "When I had breakfast, I asked Zhuang Dali's family to watch it, but when I came back, this person and the style paper were gone. ”

"Zhuang Dali's?" Yu asked, "Where is she now?" ”

The maid Julan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Someone was talking at our door this morning, saying that Zhuang Dali's mother was sick, but when she left, I saw that she locked a drawing into the box. ”

"In addition to this Zhuang Dali's" Gui Hongyuan asked: "Steward Song, do you see any other suspicious people?" ”

"This ...... When I returned from breakfast, I seemed to see a figure flash out of the workshop from a distance. This figure looks a little like ...... Like Miss," Sister Song said, the quieter her voice became.

"Cher?" Gui Hongyue shouted in shock.

Gui Jingxue's hands trembled with fright from this voice, and the lotus leaf porridge in the bowl spilled onto the light purple skirt.

"Oops...... Miss, the clothes are dirty, hurry back to the room to change" The maid Julan hurriedly helped her own young lady.

"Slow, make it clear before leaving, why are you going to the workshop this morning, do you have a pattern map of Na Yue'er?" Gui Hongyuan's face was serious.

"I didn't! What is the use of me taking that pattern? It's so far away, how can this Song steward see that it's me, don't wronged a good person! Gui Jingxue was embarrassed, shook her hands and left in a hurry.

"How is this good, this jewelry must be very important to Sister Yue'er, last night I saw that the candles in her room were not extinguished until the second half of the night, and the drawings drawn by staying up late were gone" Gui Hongyuan was anxious to turn around, Yu looked at the figure of Gui Jingxue who couldn't wait to leave, and his face gradually became complicated.

Gui Hongyuan called the little servant, "You hurry up to the county, tell Sister Yue'er that the drawings are gone, let her come back quickly, see if she can draw a new one, and the suspicious Jin Qi'er will also be called back!" ”

"Madame, what's wrong with you? But uncomfortable? Gui Hong saw Yu rubbing his forehead and his face turned pale.

"I'm fine, just go back to the room and rest for a while, sir, hurry up and go to the school, don't delay the children's study." Yu got up and went back to the room, and told Sister Liu and Sister Yue to come back and let her come to see her as soon as possible.

The little maid heard that he rode a fast horse to the county, and did not return until noon.

"Why did you come back, it's going to be delayed now, the style drawing, but you got it?" Steward Song's anxious turn.

"No, young master, they were trapped, saying that their carriage hit someone, and now they are ...... at the yamen"

"What a good thing that is! Tell Madame quickly. Steward Song cried with a sad face, and Gui Jingxue, who was sitting on the side, lowered her head and drank tea, unable to see her expression.

"No, Madame is not feeling well today and is resting, so don't go in and disturb her." Grandma Liu said.

"Oh my God, how can everything be rushed together, but how is it good!" Steward Song muttered.

Until the sun set in the west, Lord Fu Yin had not finished dealing with other important cases, and he had no time to try this trivial matter on Gui Mingyue's side.

The onlookers gradually dispersed, and the old man in the arms of the middle-aged man also sat up slowly, and the middle-aged man looked at the sky outside, smiled and asked Gui Mingyue for a hundred taels of silver.

Gui Mingyue threw him fifty taels, "You have also spent a day here with me, no matter what the purpose is, it should be achieved." I'm too lazy to give you fifty taels, if it's too little, let's wait, Lord Fu Yin is estimated to be able to come over soon. ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he silently picked up fifty taels of silver and helped the old man away.

"Woo, miss, what can I do? If you miss the time, you can't take out that Sanchunhui, how can the young lady face those young ladies in the school in the future. "Ever since she heard that she had come to report that the pattern had been stolen, Jin Qi'er had been anxious, and now she broke down and cried.

Gui Mingyue patted her on the shoulder, sat back in the carriage, and suddenly said to the little maid: "Turn the horse's head and go to Angelica Pavilion." ”

Yes? Jin Qi'er is puzzled, without a pattern drawing, you can't make that Sanchunhui, you can't make Sanchunhui, what's the use of going to Angelica Pavilion.

"The owner, the owner of this Sheng family's shop is here...... "The guy from Angelica Pavilion leaned into Gui Mingyue's ear and said.

"Oh, Miss Gui Er is late, Sheng has been waiting for a long time" Sheng sat on the chair arrogantly, looking at this little girl who was not yet ten years old.

"I don't know if Boss Sheng came to my Angelica Pavilion today, but if you want to buy jewelry, if you like it again, Mingyue will definitely give you the lowest price......" Gui Mingyue sat down and said: "Oh, I forgot, I heard that the jewelry stock of the Sheng family shop is abundant, and I heard that there are fewer and fewer customers in the shop." With so much jewelry, Boss Sheng doesn't have to buy it at my Angelica Pavilion at all. ”

"You! What a sharp-toothed little girl, "The inventory in the Sheng family's shop that can't be sold is Sheng Huaixu's sore feet."

"Boss Sheng, since you're not here to buy jewelry, please go back" Gui Mingyue issued an eviction order.

Sheng Huaixu heard this, and suddenly smiled, "Hehe, don't worry, don't worry." ”

Hmph, this person is dead and begging for nothing, we must be here to see the excitement, Jin Qi'er hated it.

"Mingyue, I'm here, what about my Sanchunhui, hurry up and show it to me" Leng Bingxiang got off the horse and couldn't wait to rush into Hu Bugui.

"Miss Leng, we couldn't ......," Jin Qi'er said with a sad face.

"Bingxiang, why are you here in person, hurry up and serve tea!" Gui Mingyue interrupted Jin Qi'er's words, and stepped forward to greet Leng Bingxiang with a smile.

After drinking tea three times, Leng Bingxiang and Gui Mingyue changed their clothes twice...... As for Na Sheng Huaixu, he was not in a hurry at all, seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he was sitting with his eyes slightly closed, and the old god was sitting there, with a casual smile on his face.

"Mingyue, take it out quickly, it's going to be dark this day, don't sell it" Leng Bingxiang was a little anxious.

Gui Mingyue stood up and quietly glanced out the door again, Jin Qi'er was already like an ant on a hot pot.

"Miss Guier, don't wait, there is no style drawing, Miss Leng's Sanchunhui, you can't do it if you don't return to the pavilion." Sheng Huaixu leaned closer to Gui Mingyue's ear and whispered.

"It's you! How did you steal our lady's drawings? Jin Qi'er pointed at Sheng Huaixu angrily, yesterday there was Liu Huyuan and his party patrolling all day, and it was impossible for outsiders to enter the mansion.

"Well, you can go back and ask your eldest lady."

Miss? It was stolen by Gui Jingxue!

"What the hell happened, the pattern was stolen? What about my Sanchunhui? Leng Bingxiang jumped up when she heard this, grabbed Gui Mingyue's sleeve and asked eagerly.

"I ......" Gui Mingyue's palms were a little sweaty.

"Miss Leng, don't worry, the Sanchunhui you want, Angelica Pavilion can't get it today. Because this Sanchunhui was originally from our Sheng family's shop......" Sheng Huai said loudly.

"What? Sanchunhui is from the Sheng family's shop? Leng Bingxiang was surprised.

"Well, yesterday I occasionally learned that Miss Leng is very fond of our Sanchunhui, Sheng asked people to build this overnight, please Miss Leng smiled" said, taking out a small box from his sleeve.

Leng Bingxiang took a look at it, and couldn't help frowning and said,

"Cut, what is this called Sanchunhui, fool me that I haven't seen Sanchunhui."

What the?! This time it was Sheng Huaixu's turn to be surprised, isn't this San Chunhui? Is the pattern map stolen by Gui Jingxue fake? Or are they colluding?

At this time, two people hurriedly broke into the Angelica Pavilion.

"Grandma Liu, why did you come here in person?" Gui Mingyue saw Grandma Liu coming in the dust, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet her.

"Second Miss, Madame doesn't worry about anything else, so she ordered me and Liu Huyuan to come, didn't delay?" As he spoke, he quickly took out a brocade box from his sleeve and offered it.

Leng Bingxiang stepped forward and couldn't wait to open it, and what caught his eye was a piece of fiery red gold. I saw that it was a red gold hoop, and there were clusters of fiery red on it, this is the flame?! It's really the warmth of red, the intensity of red. It turned out to be the outline of a flame made of gold wire, with the smallest flames on both sides, and the larger the more toward the middle, the middle cluster was the size of an adult's thumb. It is inlaid with fine red coral fragments, and if you look closely, even the smallest coral particles are clusters of small flames!

The more I look at it, the more I like it, Leng Bingxiang's temperament has always been hot, and she loves red clothes and red jewelry the most, and she can't put it down at the moment.

After seeing the true face of this San Chunhui again, he looked at the one in his hand again, Sheng Huaixu couldn't say a word, and left with hatred.

Jin Qi'er witnessed all this, and felt that this heart was suddenly fluctuating all day.

"Miss, tell me quickly, what is the matter with such a pattern? Did the eldest lady steal it? After Miss Leng took her things and said goodbye happily, Jin Qi'er couldn't help but ask.

Gui Mingyue smiled, the drawings were indeed taken by the eldest sister, but ......

It turned out that last night, after the ladies had finished appreciating the epiphany, when they were saying goodbye at the gate of the General's Mansion, Gui Jingxue was waiting alone by the carriage.

"Oops......" was hit hard in the arm, and a note was stuffed in his hand.

"Are you the owner of the Sheng family's shop? You're looking for the wrong person, I'm not Gui Mingyue. Gui Jingxue said coldly.

"What I'm looking for is you, Miss Gui, Miss Gui is knowledgeable, and today I saw that it was really dignified and generous, but how did I hear that at home or in front of outsiders, it is not as beautiful as your sister! Tsk tsk. ”

"You! What does my family have to do with it? Gui Jingxue was said to be upset in her heart and was about to leave.

"Wait, Miss, how about we make a deal?"

After the negotiation, Gui Jingxue returned to the carriage and was speechless all the way.

After returning home, Gui Jingxue tossed and turned, and finally got up and sat at the dressing table in a daze. His eyes touched the carved peony ring, and finally sighed, put on his clothes and pushed the door open, and slowly went to the room where the candles were still lit in the moonlight.

"Ahh So, is all this the bad guy who deliberately deceived the Sheng family shop with a fake pattern map? Jin Qi'er suddenly brightened up and shouted happily.

Grandma Liu smiled and nodded, in order not to reveal the news, Mrs. pretended to be unwell, and in the room where she was, in fact, she was in the house in front of the real pattern drawing, and hurried to make the Sanchunhui.
