Chang Le stuck out his tongue and blinked cutely: "I've worked hard for you, I'll go back and give you something delicious." By the way, how much does the restaurant cost? ”

"One hundred and fifty taels." Shili pursed his lips and ignored her.

Chang Le's brows jumped, and he coughed twice and said, "It's a lot." ”

"Isn't it? The eldest brother almost didn't have enough money with them, and planned to mortgage me there. Shili grinded his teeth fiercely, "Madam, see if you will leave me next time!" ”

Chang Le swallowed his saliva and patted the back of her hand: "Don't dare to lose it, don't dare to lose it." However, didn't you also throw me to Taishou last time? He almost threw me into a mass grave. ”

Shili was flustered: "That, that's all Wuze......"

"Well, you don't have to explain. Let's have two draws. ”

……

A few days later, Red Bean Garden.

Hua Chu'er's body finally recovered, she got up early, and Ruyu waited for her makeup.

In the bronze mirror, Hua Chu'er held her rosy face, her eyes shone with the light of battle, and she said softly in a good mood: "Seeing that my body is also healed, Ruyu, you go and call Aunt Rong today." These days, I have tired her of housework, and I can't blame her for it. ”

Ruyu wanted to speak and stopped.

Hua Chu'er felt different, the jade hand of the hairpin stopped, and took the jade hairpin in her hand to play: "Anyway, what happened?" ”

Ruyu put her hair in a bun, took the comb and walked to the side tremblingly, half an arm's length away, and then she said: "Aunt Rong went to the pot courtyard a few days ago, and she will not come again in the future." ”

Click!

The jade hairpin was destroyed in Hua Chu'er's hands.

Ruyu was so frightened that her legs weakened, and she wanted to kneel down again.

This time, Hua Chuer didn't lose her temper again.

From the time Zhang Changxiu came back with Chang Le in his arms, she had expected it. It's just that I didn't expect that Chang to be so proud.

"Also, the housewife is sick now, and she should be a housekeeper."

Hua Chu'er smiled gently, and with that harmless face of humans and animals, Ruyu breathed a sigh of relief. It was only when Hua regained his position, returned to Hua Shi's back, took another white jade hairpin she handed over, and seriously found a place for her hairpin.

As soon as the white jade hairpin was worn, Hua Chu'er's skin was white and beautiful, and the whole person seemed to be glowing.

Ruyu couldn't help but admire: "Madame is really good-looking." ”

Hua Chu'er listened very comfortably, and smiled gently: "Today's white jade hairpin just matches the white jade carved plum ring that the head of the family gave me." Wear a white jade ring today. I haven't been out for a long time, so I'll go out to see Hongmei and relax later. ”

"What Madame said is that it has snowed in the past two days, and the red Meto is so beautiful that it is beautiful." Ruyu said and began to look for Hua Chu'er's white jade ring in the makeup box, and after looking for a long time, she was a little panicked in her heart, and her voice weakened, "If Mrs. goes to enjoy the plums, she will definitely be ashamed of those red plums." ”

Hua Chu'er liked her metaphor very much.

Changle likes red plums, everyone knows it. Hongmei can't compare to her, which is also an indisputable fact.

Raising his eyes lightly, he saw that Ruyu was still rummaging through the makeup box, hooked his lips and smiled, and said softly: "What's the matter, didn't you find it?" ”

"No, madam, I didn't see ......" Ruyu was about to cry.

There are a bunch of white jewelry, but I didn't see the white jade carved plum ring that Hua Chu'er said.

The ring was begged for by the head of the family for five hundred taels of gold.

If it is lost in her hands, she will be guilty of a capital crime!

Hua Chu'er got up with an anxious face: "How could you not find it?" Look for it! ”

This trouble went to Zhang Changxiu.

Zhang Changxiu has not yet gone to the Yamen, and recently he has been unable to catch the thieves. I heard that the white jade ring given to the Hua family was lost, and I immediately contacted the thief.

The yamen didn't go either, and went straight to Hongdouyuan to ask about the situation.

"Chu'er, think about it, when did you lose the ring?" Zhang Changxiu hugged Hua Chu'er, wiping her beautiful tears for her while nervously asking.

Hua Chu'er lay in his arms, crying so pitifully that she couldn't even finish her words: "The concubine doesn't remember, I've been sick in bed these days, so I haven't paid much attention to it." It was sent to the concubine by the husband, and it cost a lot of silver, and the concubine was not optimistic, it was all the concubine's fault. ”

"I don't blame you, I'm just afraid that this matter has something to do with the thief." Zhang Changxiu was overwhelmed by her crying, "When was the last time you remembered wearing it?" ”

"This ......" Hua Chu'er fell into deep thought.

"Madam, but that Jiyue Pavilion dinner?" Ruyu reminded on the side.

She happened to be at the banquet that time, and talked enviously about the ring to the other maids.

Hua Chu'er sobbed twice, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "It seems that yes, at that time, the housemother also praised the ring for being good." ”

Hearing that Chang Le was involved, Zhang Changxiu's brows furrowed slightly, and a sense of irritability inexplicably rose in his heart, and he wanted to be angry. Thinking of these days, he reluctantly suppressed his anger and planned to start from somewhere else.

"The ...... of the Mother of the House"

A little maid next to her suddenly panicked. found that everyone was looking at him, especially Taishou's gaze, which was sharp and stern, and he was so frightened that he quickly knelt down.

Zhang Changxiu asked sharply: "What do you want to say?" ”

"Homecoming, I once saw a white jade ring from Sister Shili, but I don't know ......" The little maid said that she had already thrown herself to the ground, trembling and unable to continue.

Zhang Changxiu's pupils shrank suddenly. I don't really want to hear that name at this time.

"What nonsense are you talking about, girl! Could it be that the mistress stole the ring? Seeing that Zhang Changxiu didn't react, Hua Chu'er pretended to be angry and said, "Ruyu, reward her with a few slaps, so as not to talk nonsense again." ”

The little maid was frightened: "Slave, the maid just saw it, it is possible, and she is also dazzled." Madame forgiveness! ”

"Alright." Zhang Changxiu suppressed the messy scene in his voice, and said angrily, "Wuze, bring Chang's and her maid Shili to this official!" ”

Wu Ze's hand holding the hilt of the knife clenched, and he took the order away with an expressionless face.

Hua Chu'er borrowed a handkerchief to cover it, and a triumphant smile quietly flashed at the corner of her mouth.

Unexpectedly, there were still people to help, so that she had to spend less time.

"Husband, white jade rings are everywhere, didn't you give them to the master mother before? Presumably the painting was a mistake. Hua Chu'er pinched the handkerchief to help him smooth his chest and depression, "The husband will say slowly later, don't worry." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Changxiu lowered his head and placed a kiss on her forehead, and said comfortingly, "If she really committed the crime of theft, I will not bend the law for personal gain." ”

Chang Le was carried to the Red Bean Garden again.

Seeing Hua Chu'er crying and crying, with tears streaming down her face, looking like she was going to die or live, Chang Le really didn't have the patience to deal with the same scene again, and said unhappily: "What's wrong again?" ”

Zhang Changxiu helped Hua Chu'er to the side and placed the soft pillow behind her, so that she could lean more comfortably. When he turned his head to face Chang Le, he repeatedly told himself that he had to ask clearly this time. Between the eyebrows and eyes, it was inadvertently dyed with majesty.

"Chang Le, have you ever seen Chu'er's white jade carved plum ring?"

"You're asking about the ring that Hana gave me?" Chang Le replied as a matter of course.

Zhang Changxiu frowned, and looked at Hua Chu'er suspiciously: "Chu'er, you sent it personally?" ”

"Concubine, no." Hua Chu'er showed an inexplicable expression.

Chang Le couldn't help but twist his eyebrows and tilt his head slightly, feeling that something was wrong.

This little concubine is a demon again.

Shili subconsciously wanted to take out the white jade ring from his arms and throw it away.

At this point, it's scorching and scary.

I knew there was this, and she did it two days ago!

Hua Chu'er bit her thin lip lightly and grieved: "It was given to the concubine by the husband, the concubine is very cherished, where can I give it away easily." At that time, the mistress said that she liked it and wanted the concubine to give it to her, but the concubine thought of her affection, so she refused without knowing the rules. ”

Zhang Changxiu couldn't judge accurately for a while, took a sip of tea, smelled the dark fragrance in the red bean garden, and believed Hua Chu'er even more after calming down: "Chang Le, if you confess truthfully, this official will reduce your sentence." ”

Chang Le was confused.

Looking at Hua's Yin Tao's small mouth, the taste in his heart was no longer able to tell whether he was admiring or angry.

How can such a person live in the world and tell nonsense?

Can't the thunder and lightning mother in the sky see it?

Grasping the smugness in her eyes, he couldn't help but be angry, and pointed at her and scolded: "You didn't send it to me?" What tongue to chew at this time? ”

"Master, that white jade carved plum ring was bought by the husband at a great price, if it is easy to be, it will be cheaper for people outside." Hua Chu'er was about to cry, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, as if she thought of something, and said anxiously, "In this way, if the main mother is short of money, the concubine will make up five hundred taels, and the concubine will buy the white jade ring back?" ”

Hua Chu'er had already heard that after Chang Le moved to the pot courtyard, he would take all the valuable things. Chang Le is not a luxury person, and when he asked for her white jade ring, he was just thinking about exchanging money.

Chang Le opened his mouth, bit his lip speechlessly, blinked and said, "Hua, you are like this, does your conscience really not hurt?" ”

"Chang Le, do you have a little conscience when you do this?" Zhang Changxiu scolded Hua Chu'er back, trying to maintain the last trace of sanity, "Since you said that it was Chu'er who gave you the ring, do you have any evidence?" ”

When Hua Chu'er heard this, her face was silent, and she already had the chance to win in her heart.

She wants to see how she Changle jumped out of this pit this time!

"It was just the two of us at the time, where would I get evidence?" Chang Le gritted his teeth and reluctantly told the truth. glanced back at Shili, sad and helpless.

This time, she was planted!

Shili's hands were twisted together, quietly watching the development of everything, anxious. Receiving Chang Le's eyes, his mind spun rapidly, hoping to find a chance to escape this catastrophe.

"What do you say, then?"

Zhang Changxiu saw that she didn't plan to quibble when she was about to die, so he couldn't help but be disappointed, and slammed the tea cup as a shocking wood to vent his anger.

The tea cup was not stimulated and shattered in half.

Chang Le was used to his official authority, and he was a little scared at first, but now he only had a sore brain and a sense of tension of being oppressed.

It's like there's a water clock in my head.

Tick tock, tick tock.

It was the countdown to her life.

The tension of the atmosphere, the cunning of the Hua family, and the intimidation and urging of Zhang Changxiu. Stacked and intertwined, chaotic, distorting the scene in front of her and causing her brain to collapse.

Shili paid attention to the change in her state, pulled her sleeve worriedly, and patted her back: "Madame, don't worry, tell the matter well, the head of the family will know it." ”
