Two hundred and thirty-three: framed
"The little prince is heroic on weekdays, and he has never frowned when he leads troops to suppress bandits, how can men and women be so timid?" Su Yunyao quipped, "The authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and it was the tenth sister who saw that the little grandfather was interested in me, and I realized that I might also like the little grandfather, why don't I ask for you?" ”
"Don't." Lu Yuanyi refused without thinking about it, "She still doesn't know." ”
"If you don't say it, I won't say it, she won't realize it, so won't you two miss it?"
"She'll feel it, as long as she has me in her heart." Lu Yuanyi smiled lightly, "If she doesn't have me in her heart, it's useless for me to say it, I have to stay by her side for a long time, I don't have to look at me and I'm still upset, I should miss it at that time, it's better not to say it first, there will always be opportunities in the future." ”
"Then it's up to the little prince to decide for himself, my sister is a dead brain, can she understand the meaning of the little prince or two words, I wish the little prince good luck."
Su Yunyao got up and returned to the cabin, Su Moyao was already asleep, and Liu Ya guarded her and gently fanned the wind.
"You tell Sister Ten in a while, Mother Zhao makes fish soup at night, don't let her sleep for too long, otherwise she won't be able to sleep at night."
"Got it, girl." Liu Ya softly agreed.
Until it was almost dark, the boat stopped for a while, Su Moyao's seasickness was better, Zhao's mother knew that she was seasick, and she specially brought medicine to relieve seasickness before coming out, and she would feel much better after drinking and sleeping.
Otherwise, after eating dinner in the evening, Su Moyao would have to vomit.
Su Peiyao was very dizzy with the carriage, she always said that the carriage kept moving forward without stopping, which made her heart go up and down without a quiet time, this seasick Su Moyao also explained why she was seasick, as soon as she got out of the cabin, there was water all around, fluttering, and she would fall down if she couldn't stand steadily, mainly because it was too bumpy, so that Su Moyao couldn't adapt to it for a while.
Zhao's mother's craftsmanship is also good, the fish soup is stewed with a big fish just caught, not to mention the taste is fresh, I have been on the road for almost two days, and I drink a bowl of fresh and warm fish soup at this time, which is extremely comfortable.
Su Moyao drank two bowls in one go, completely losing the sad face of seasickness.
Lu Yuanyi also felt that it tasted good, and offered to drink more bowls, during which he also told Su Moyao to drink slowly.
When sleeping, the river is very quiet, the sound of the water is leisurely, from time to time there are two fish jumping up and down splashing the water, the water splashes on the boat, the sound is very soft, Su Yunyao is most afraid of noise when she sleeps on weekdays, but on the river, she feels a rare calm around her.
There was also a merchant ship next to the Su family's ship, which was supposed to be a very peaceful night, but it was broken by a noise.
Su Yunyao got up in her gown and woke up Lisheng next to her.
"What's going on out there?"
Lisheng was confused, went out to take a look, and then returned and said, "Girl, it's someone from the merchant ship next to you." ”
"You're here to borrow something?" Su Yunyao asked.
"No, someone came from that ship, saying that someone on our ship stole their things."
"Nonsense!" Su Moyao brought her shoes over, "Why did we steal their things?" This is a boat, who should be so long as his arm to be able to carry his boat? ”
"No, when I was cooking dinner today, Mother Zhao thought that she was a little tired from traveling in the past two days, so she thought about improving the girl and the little prince, and went to the boat to borrow some spices."
"Mother Zhao went in person?" Su Moyao asked.
Lisheng nodded.
Mother Zhao's character is believed by both Yao, she has never made a mistake in taking care of them for so many years, let alone the kind of person who steals other people's things, and the people on the boat said these words just to frame them.
When he got out of the room where he lived, he met Lu Yuanyi, who was also out to check, although it was night, he was still dressed neatly.
On the deck, a woman dressed in gold and silver on the merchant ship had been chattering endlessly, and her voice could be heard in the cabin, and everyone came to the deck, and she was not the only one who came, but also her two maids and a few men, who seemed to be not good.
Mother Zhao's expression is not very good, it is the first time that she has been wrongly accused of stealing things by someone for such a big logarithmic, not to mention how aggrieved she is at this time.
"My bracelet is worn by a jewel, it is very precious, if you hand it over now, it will be fine, otherwise when the head of your family comes, I will have to let them throw you down to feed the fish!"
"Don't wait, the ship's boss is here." Su Yunyao walked over with a smile on her face.
The woman turned her head and looked Su Yunyao up and down, and saw that it was just a little girl, so she didn't pay attention to it, "Why don't you even have an adult in your family?" What can a furry child talk to me? ”
The smile on Su Yunyao's face was still undiminished, "What this lady said is, but it is true that my father can't leave in Beijing, and the royal family has a lot of things to help him do. ”
When the woman heard this, her face was a little strange, and then she regained her expression: "Your maid stole my family's things, you have to give me an explanation." ”
"My maid?" Su Yunyao pretended to be surprised and looked around, "I don't know which one of the people present that Mrs. said?" ”
"That's her." The woman pointed to Zhao's mother.
"Yo, Madame misunderstood, this is not my maid, but my wet nurse, I don't know what business Madame's family has? My nurse she married a businessman in our Xunjing City, is in the jewelry business, and you will go to Xunjing to do business in the future, we may be able to give a convenience. ”
Mother Zhao looked at Su Yunyao with some puzzlement, she was not married to a businessman in the jewelry business, and she was not Su Yunyao's nurse.
But then, she understood why Su Yunyao was so deceitful.
The woman opposite looked at Mother Zhao suspiciously, and then looked at Su Yunyao, "Don't tell me that it's useless, she stole my bracelet, my bracelet is very precious, let her hand it over quickly, otherwise you will think about how to compensate!" ”
Su Moyao stepped forward from behind, "If you really practice a sharp mouth in business, these two sentences put the charge on Zhao's mother's head?" You say people took your things, what about the evidence? ”
A maid came over and showed that she had seen Zhao's mother take something.
Su Yunyao sneered and asked Mother Zhao, "Where did you go after you got on the boat, who did you go with, have you seen this maid?" ”
Mother Zhao doesn't call herself a slave at this time, and she said, "I thought that the health of the girls was the most important, so I pulled down my face and borrowed some spices from her boat, and the places where the spices were put were all separate, and they could be put together with bracelets and jewelry?" Besides, I went to the realm of cooking, and I didn't go anywhere else, and people watched me all the time, and the maid next to me also accompanied me, and she could testify. ”
"Did you hear that?" Su Yunyao turned her head and asked the woman, "My nurse said that she didn't take your bracelet." ”
"Impossible!" The woman was sure that it was her, "If it weren't for her, no outsider would have been on my boat!" If you want to protect your own slaves, then you can make a price and pay for my bracelet, not much, five hundred taels will be fine. ”
"Five hundred taels? You're doing a great job, I'm afraid you're so cheated and cheated, right? When you open your mouth, you pour dirty water on people, and you are a thief who shouts to catch a thief there, and you still have the face to ask us for compensation? Phew! ”
"Alas, you little girl!" The woman's voice suddenly raised a little, and she pointed at Su Moyao and spitted and said, "No one in your family teaches you to talk to your elders?" ”
At this time, Lu Yuanyi held the hilt of the sword to block her outstretched fingers, "My girl came out of the palace, and she has lived in the palace for two years, and there is no mistake in etiquette, but the grandmothers who guide the etiquette have always said that she should treat each other politely, but they have not said how to say good things about a scoundrel like you." ”
Seeing that Lu Yuanyi, who had never been smiling, also accompanied the two of them to act, Su Moyao looked up at him in surprise, then looked at the woman and nodded, "He's right!" No one has wronged my family yet, if you dare to be a scoundrel, be careful that your business will not be able to do it in the future! ”
"Don't you want to scare me!" The woman looked at what they said as if it was true, and she was a little panicked, she didn't expect to be able to provoke such an unprovoked person, but she still held on to the luck and said hard, "Do you think that you are a high-ranking family and can cover the slaves casually!" ”
Su Yunyao said in a calm tone, "Then I'm here to ask Madame about you, my nurse has been under the care of your family since she got on the boat, and she went to the kitchen and didn't see your bracelet at all, but you insisted that it was her, where did you get the credentials?" Don't let the girl around you steal your bracelet and plant it to my family, I'm going to blame you. ”
"How is that possible!" The woman suddenly felt a little weak, and the maid next to her hurriedly quibbled that she saw Mother Zhao stealing things.
"Oh? Then why did you put such a precious bracelet in the kitchen and let an outsider see it? Are the ornaments in the house already so extravagant? ”
The maid was speechless for a moment, and remained silent for a long time.
The woman beside her said anxiously, "My bracelet is dirty, let her take it and wipe it, just as she was about to give me the tonic I drank, it fell in the kitchen, what, it's not allowed?" ”
"But this is all your side of the story, who knows if you deliberately planted a false accusation and wanted to knock a stamp on us?" Su Moyao glanced at her fiercely.
"I... My family is in business, so why should I frame you for stealing? Am I short of that money? ”
"It's really strange, Mother Zhao's family is also in business, and she is still in my house, what rare thing has never seen to take your bracelet? Don't be that you haven't seen the world yourself, and you will deduct any crime from your family! ”
