Chapter 94: The East Window Incident
Xun Xuan hooked her lips and chuckled, and continued to play with the flowers and plants quietly, not worrying about the coming storm at all.
The sun set, the last glimmer of brilliance was collected, and even the last trace of residual heat disappeared between heaven and earth.
The weather turns cooler after the beginning of autumn, especially at night, and you need to add an extra cloak when you go out.
At this time, Xun Xuan had just finished dinner, and Mama Lin and An Xuehan came to Hanyunju.
"Miss, someone is here." Qu You immediately entered the door to ventilate the news.
Xun Xuan half leaned on the beauty couch, her brows moved slightly, and she sat up lazily, waiting for the people outside the door to enter the room.
With a burst of footsteps, Mama Lin, An Xuehan and others entered the house in a hurry.
"Mama Lin? Second cousin? How did you guys get here? Xun Xuan asked with a smile.
"Mama Lin, Cousin Xun has been very diligent in walking around Chunxiang Pavilion recently, maybe she accidentally brought the golden statue of the Bodhisattva into Hanyun Residence!" An Xuehan looked at Xun Xuan with a sneer and instigated.
Xun Xuan raised her eyebrows and looked at An Xuehan puzzled: "Second cousin, what are you talking about?" What Bodhisattva Golden Statue? ”
"That's right, the old lady's golden statue of the Bodhisattva suddenly disappeared, and the old lady was very anxious when she learned it, so she ordered the old slave to come and look for it." Mama Lin and Xun Xuan have always had a good relationship in private, although Xun Xuan is suspected of seizing the golden statue of the Bodhisattva, Mama Lin's attitude towards her is still very friendly.
Xun Xuan looked at Mama Lin with an innocent face: "Could it be that grandmother thinks that Ah Zhi stole the golden statue?" ”
"Not really!" Mama Lin smiled to show relief, "It's just that Mrs. Xing attaches great importance to the golden statue of the Bodhisattva, and when she learned that the golden statue suddenly disappeared, she was so anxious that she ordered the old slave to go out to look for it." ”
If An Xuehan hadn't suddenly appeared and pointed the finger at Xun Xuan, the old lady would naturally not suspect Xun Xuan's head.
"Since it is my grandmother's will, Ah Zhi naturally has to obey." Xun Xuan said lightly.
Mama Lin nodded, and was about to search Xun Xuan's room.
Xun Xuan suddenly spoke: "Slow! ”
Mama Lin looked at Xun Xuan suspiciously: "Miss Cousin still has something to explain?" ”
Xun Xuan squinted and smiled, and said lightly: "Grandmother lost the golden statue of the Bodhisattva and came to search for Ah Zhi completely cooperated, but if she wanted to search only Ah Zhi's room, if it spread, I am afraid that it will make outsiders misunderstand Anfu's two hearts about me, Miss Cousin, and it will not only affect Ah Zhi alone, but maybe it will also affect the entire Anfu." ”
Xun Xuan can understand that the old lady's behavior is only because she is anxious about losing the Bodhisattva golden statue, and she will teach An Xuehan to take advantage of the situation, she will not blame the old lady for doubting her, but she will definitely not swallow her anger because of this.
Mama Lin has been following the old lady for a long time, she is naturally a thoughtful person, and when she heard Xun Xuan say this, she also felt that there was some truth in it, and she couldn't help but ask: "What does Miss Table mean?" ”
Xun Xuan was waiting for Mama Lin's words, and hurriedly responded: "Ah Zhi thinks that since the Bodhisattva gold statue is so precious and so important to the old lady, it is better to simply search all the courtyards in the whole house, so that the chance of finding it is greater, so that she is not afraid of gossip from outsiders." ”
Xun Xuan's words made some sense, and Mama Lin bowed slightly: "The old slave understands, and the old slave will bring Miss Cousin's words to the old lady as they are." ”
"That being the case, then Mama Lin, please!" Xun Xuan turned away with a smile and made a "please" gesture.
Mama Lin bowed slightly: "That old slave is offended!" ”
"Let's start searching! Tap your hands and feet, don't break Miss Watch's things! "Mama Lin's search is different from the Liu family's gang, considering that Xun Xuan is the old lady's favorite lady, the people who searched naturally don't dare to spoil the things in Xun Xuan's room casually.
An Xuehan watched everyone search, her eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and her face was full of anticipation, and it won't be long before Xun Zhi ...... You'll be nothing in Anfu.
It's a pleasure to think about!
Time passed minute by minute, An Xuehan watched everyone search Hanyun Ju inside and out, and became more and more impatient in her heart, and she couldn't wait to find out the things by herself.
But everyone turned the entire Hanyun Residence upside down, and they didn't even find the shadow of the Bodhisattva's golden statue.
"This ...... How could this be ......" An Xuehan was in a hurry, and couldn't help but shout.
This voice happened to be heard by Mama Lin, and she hurriedly turned her head and asked, "Second Miss, do you have any questions?" ”
An Xuehan was stunned, knowing that she was too excited, so she hurriedly laughed and haha: "No...... No, I mean...... How could this golden statue of the Bodhisattva be in Hanyunju! Cousin Xun is not such a person! ”
Mama Lin smiled lightly, in response, she couldn't help but sneer secretly in her heart, these two young ladies are really interesting, it is clear that she went to Chunxiang Pavilion to report that Xun Xuan stole the golden statue of the Bodhisattva, but at this time she pretended to have nothing to do with herself, who is this to pretend to be?
Mama Lin didn't pay attention to An Xuehan anymore, turned her head to Xun Xuan and said, "I've offended tonight, please don't blame Miss Cousin!" ”
Xun Xuan nodded: "How come?" My grandmother always regarded the golden statue of the Bodhisattva as a treasure, and I was just doing it with my hands. ”
Mama Lin bowed to Xun Xuan to apologize, and then turned around and led the servants out of Hanyun Residence.
……
Here, after Mama Lin left Hanyunju, she sent An Xuehan back to Changle Xuan, and she rushed all the way back to Chunxiang Pavilion.
"Did Zhi girl really say that?" Old Madam Xing sat on the Taishi chair, with a cane in her hand, and her shrewd eyes flashed with a hint of gentleness.
"Yes, Miss Biao has been wronged this time." Mama Lin said slowly.
Old Madam Xing exhaled lightly, and a touch of guilt crossed her face: "It's all because I was confused for a while, I actually listened to the words of the second girl, and I suspected Ah Zhi, this kid is eighty percent blamed on me in his heart." ”
Mama Lin: "Although Miss Cousin said that she was wronged, she didn't mean to blame the old lady, and she also proposed to ask for a search of all the yards, so that outsiders would not think that our Anfu had treated Miss Cousin badly." ”
Old Madam Xing nodded, a little annoyed: "It's still Azhi who is sensible and thoughtful, my old woman is getting older and more useless, and she actually does such a foolish thing!" ”
"You can't blame the old lady, you are also dedicated to the Buddha, and you lost the golden statue of the Bodhisattva, and you are not at ease in your heart." Mama Lin comforted, after all, the old lady had been chanting Buddha in her heart for many years, and she respected the Bodhisattva, and suddenly the golden statue of the Bodhisattva disappeared, and anyone else was in a hurry.
"Since the golden statue of the Bodhisattva is not in Ah Zhi's room, I can only search the rest of the courtyard now, and I must find it as soon as possible. Mrs. Xing has believed in Buddhism for many years, just for the sake of peace and tranquility, and this golden statue of the Bodhisattva must also be found as soon as possible.
"Hey...... The old slave will do it! Mama Lin answered and was about to go down to do something.
At this time, Mrs. Xing suddenly stood up, leaned on crutches and said: "Let's go, this time I will go with you, the people in the other courtyards are afraid that they are not as good at talking as Zhi Yatou, if my old woman does not go in person, I am afraid that they will not give you this thin face." ”
……
At three o'clock, Xun Xuan was sitting on the couch looking at idle books, and Qu You ran in from outside the door in a hurry, with a happy look on his face.
"Miss, the golden statue of the Bodhisattva has been found, in the second miss's Changle Xuan." Qu You said a little excitedly.
Xun Xuan threw away the book in her hand, and a sneer appeared on her face: "Really? ”
"It's true, the old lady wanted to punish the second lady at this time, but she was stopped by Mrs. Liu and Aunt Jiang, and she is in a stalemate at this moment!" Qu You said immediately.
Xun Xuan stood up with a smile: "It seems that the show is staged, change my clothes for me, I want to go to Changle Xuan in person." ”
Qu Yousheng hurriedly found clothes for Xun Xuan, and seemed impatient: "Miss, do you want to find a way to pass the news to the young ladies of the other hospitals?" ”
"The eldest cousin has never been involved in this kind of thing, and even if she learns about it, she won't ask, as for the third and fourth misses...... At this time, people must already be in Changle Xuan, so let's not worry about it. "The matter of the Bodhisattva Golden Statue is closely related to An Yixin and An Lingqing, and the two of them should be more concerned about the progress of this matter than Xun Xuan.
After half a cup of tea, Xun Xuan had already rushed from Hanyunju to An Xuehan's Changle Xuan.
As soon as Xun Xuan stepped into the door, a broken teacup flew out of it, and then Mrs. Xing's angry reprimand came: "I think who dares to stop my old woman from enforcing the family law today!" ”
When the cup fell to the ground, everyone was shocked, and even Aunt Jiang, who could speak well, was pale and frozen.
Xun Xuan's face sank a little, and then she changed into a gentle face and walked into the house.
The scene in the house was deadlocked, Xun Xuan went in and gave a salute to Mrs. Xing, Aunt Jiang and Liu, and then walked to Mrs. Xing's side obediently, and said slowly: "Old lady, don't be impatient, if you have something to say, it's all your own family, don't hurt the harmony!" ”
"Kind? What is there to talk about? Old Madam Xing was furious and scolded, "I'm not dead yet!" Someone has put their ideas on my head, and now my wife doesn't even have the power to dispose of people. I see, now no one in this Anfu takes my old wife in their eyes! ”
Everyone was stunned, you look at me, I look at you, no one spoke.
Xun Xuan smiled: "Could it be that there is some misunderstanding here?" ”
"Misunderstanding? Where did the misunderstanding come from? Old Madam Xing snorted coldly, and then motioned to Mama Lin.
Mama Lin bowed slightly, stretched out her hand and lifted the cloth on the table, and there was indeed a golden statue of a Bodhisattva and a bunch of ornaments.
"Huh...... Isn't that the hair ornament that a few of us handed over to the robbers today? An Lingqing didn't hold back, so he said it.
"What do you say? Are these ornaments yours? Old Madam Xing was taken aback and immediately asked.
