Chapter 9: 0009: Come and catch the thief
The man stood one step behind Yan Luo, with a familiar bewitching smile. When he speaks, he habitually pinched the jasper wrench that he carried on his thumb.
The white clothes are fluttering, even on such a night when the light is insufficient, people can clearly see his figure and appearance.
Chu Bai! He dared to come!
Even though Yan Luo tried very hard to restrain his emotions, his body still trembled violently, so that the faint light of the lantern also trembled.
"I'm not afraid." Chu Bai thought he was scared of her, so he stepped forward and hugged Yan Luo in his arms.
The light of the lantern grazed Chu Bai's clothes and fell to the ground, and Chu Bai's body was also vigorously pushed out by Yan Luo, and he staggered back a step.
"Someone's coming...... There are thieves! Yan Luo looked at Chu Bai indifferently, and shouted loudly in a panicked voice.
Although she doesn't have Song Rong's loud voice, there are also guards in this mansion, and when she shouts like this, naturally someone rushes here.
Chu Bai's face sank, and after looking at Yan Luo, he jumped directly onto the tree.
Is...... The paws of his little wildcat...... It's getting sharper.
Sooner or later, she'll have to shave again!
When the family arrived, Yan Luo deliberately hid under the roots of the tree and made a trembling appearance.
Her body was really shaking, but she was not scared, but angry!
"Miss, where are the thieves?" The old butler hurriedly asked.
"Run...... ran away,......," Yan Luo's slender and white fingers trembled and pointed to the wall.
The old housekeeper hurriedly instructed the family members to go out of the house to inspect.
As soon as he moved, he seemed to have touched something hard under his feet, and the old butler leaned over with a lantern.
A white jade hairpin.
"This ...... It's my aunt's...... Things ......" Yan Luo saw the old housekeeper pinching the white jade hairpin, and a sudden fear surged into her heart, and she had difficulty breathing in pain.
It was the white jade hairpin she had been keeping, her biological mother's thing.
Also...... Something that was inserted into my heart in my previous life.
How did it end up here?
"This thief should have stolen it!" The old butler was even more angry: "I don't know what else I took away." The young lady put away her things, went back to the house to rest, and the old slave took someone to investigate. ”
Yan Luo nodded with big red eyes, and the hand that went to pick up Bai Yuchai trembled even more.
This white jade hairpin is very exquisitely made, and it is said that it was rewarded by the emperor. The hairpin body is made of gold, and the hairpin tail is inlaid with a white jade carving of a beautiful flower. The petals are layered, and it is just right to pull her hair when the dancer dances.
Something happened in the house, and Chunyi naturally heard some news.
She stood at the door, anxiously waiting for Yan Luo to come back.
The faint light of the lantern came into view, followed by the familiar figure of Spring.
A little maid escorted Yan to the gate of her courtyard, and saw that Chunyi was waiting early in the morning, so he handed the person into Chunyi's hands.
"Miss, are you alright? I heard that there was a thief in the house, and I was worried about the death of slaves and maids. Chunyi's fleshy hand patted his chest, with a look of horror.
Yan Luo also calmed down at this moment, pinched the bead hairpin on the cuffs, and smiled at Chunyi: "It's okay, it didn't hurt me, but I was just scared." What did I tell you to decoction? Don't you just wait for me, are you dry? ”
Chunyi pouted: "Where is the slave maid so hairy as Miss said, the medicine has been put in the lady's room and warmed with candlesticks." ”
Yan Luo reached out and poked the flesh on Chunyi's cheek, and entered the house with a smile.
Bitter medicine soup, Yan Luo didn't frown, and drank it all.
"I'm tired, too, go to bed early today, and you can go back and rest, and you don't have to keep vigil."
There are a lot of things going on this day, and Yan Luo is not very comfortable, and he is indeed tired.
Closing the doors and windows, Yan Luo lay on the bed and clenched the white jade hairpin in his hand.
