Chapter 30: The Thief
Zhu Jiu's least favorite is the female red, and now Aunt Yun opened her mouth to speak, and on the second day, Liu's mother hurriedly sent the things for the female red.
Just looking at this, she wanted to be lazy.
"Spring apricot ......" Zhu Jiu lay on the small table with a look of pity, especially calling weakly.
Chun Xing replied without raising her head: "The girl should be more careful, and my aunt will take a look on the fifteenth day." If the embroidery can be completed earlier, the 15th Lantern Festival can also be free to put lanterns. ”
Hearing this, knowing that he couldn't hide, Zhu Jiu had no choice but to sit up straight and wake up.
If she had done something else, she would have been in good spirits.
But in the previous life and this life, she didn't know anything about female red, and now she has no patience to pick it up again.
Just as Zhu Jiu was disgusted, Lihua outside entered the house and stamped her feet coldly for a while, "Girl, I don't know which room the maid sent the letter, and there is no signature on the letter, saying that it was sent to the girl." With that, he handed the letter over.
Zhu Jiu took a look, who would send her a letter?
When he took it apart and saw the above few imaginative poems, Zhu Jiu's face suddenly turned cold.
Zhu Jiu put away the letter and asked, "Can you see whose courtyard is it?" ”
Chun Xing looked at her girl and felt strange: "The girl has never walked around with other yards, who will send a letter if she is good?" ”
Pear Blossom shook her head: "The maid was in a hurry, but he hurriedly said that it was for the girl and left, and he didn't say which yard it was." ”
Zhu Jiu listened to this and then took a closer look at the handwriting on the letter, and the handwriting was powerful.
What's infuriating is that the poems written above have the meaning of courtship.
"Don't publicize today's things, Pear Blossom should pay attention to it in the future." When the words fell, Zhu Jiu threw the letter into the brazier.
What should come will always come, but I don't know who it is.
This kind of thing can't appear in her house, because of her aunt's background, and her sister was drugged, her reputation in this house is already notorious in the Zhu family.
Pear Blossom replied, "What the girl said is that the slave will be more careful in the future." ”
Just looking at the girl's face, you should know that the letter must not have said good things.
Zhu Jiu didn't think much about it, and looked at Nuhong all day long, and her slender hands were already red and swollen.
Chun Xing felt distressed, so she had to take a plaster to apply it to her girl, "At first, most of the female red was like this, and the girl had to be patient and take it for a while, it would be much better." ”
After sitting all day long, my back hurt, and I lost my appetite for the ninth night meal, so I ate a few pastries and lay down.
It's just that I slept in a daze in the second half of the night, and I heard a loud noise outside, accompanied by Nanlin's exclamation.
Zhu Jiu, who shouted this time, suddenly woke up from his dream, and after a while, he also alarmed the maids and women in the house, and they came over with the lamp.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a dark shadow popping out of the house, and before anyone could understand, the figure quickly left the courtyard gate.
There was a curfew at night, and the gate of the garden was closed.
When Nan Lin saw someone coming, he opened his mouth and shouted: "You are still stunned, there is a thief in the courtyard, why don't you hurry up and take a look!" ”
The mother-in-law and maids got the words, and then they went out of the courtyard to have a look.
But where are there still people now, they have long disappeared.
Zhu Jiu sat up at this time, and Chun Xing hurriedly came in and asked, "Is the girl okay?" ”
"What happened?" Zhu Jiu opened the curtain and Chun Xing shook her head She didn't know either.
This Nanlin entered the house and brought a small horned pendant. This is a horn pendant made of sheep's horns, and it is generally only worn on the small servants in the Zhu family.
The little guy was never allowed to enter the backyard, and he didn't know why he entered Nanxiang Garden.
"The slave didn't see the truth, but knew that it was a kid....." Fang Cai Nanlin was also shocked, so he exclaimed.
In the four courtyards of the boudoir garden, except for the garden where Zhu Ling lived before, there were girls living in the other two gardens.
I am afraid that such a shout has already alarmed people.
Zhu Jiu rubbed his sore head, and said to Chunxing: "Go to the main courtyard and inform me, and say that there are thieves in Nanxiang Garden and things have been lost." ”
"Yes, slave and maid will go." Chun Xing immediately ran to the main courtyard to talk.
Nan Lin didn't understand a little, it stands to reason that when others asked about this, they would say that they were thieves, and if they didn't ask, they wouldn't be able to make a noise.
Why did the girl ask Chunxing to inform the main hospital?
Seeing Nanlin's puzzled face, Zhu Jiu sank a face: "If you don't understand, you don't have to think about it anymore, go and see what traces there are at the garden gate, go quickly!" ”
"Ambiguous." Nan Lin couldn't figure it out, so he had to take a look first.
The mother-in-law and the maids went outside for a while before they came back, but they didn't find anyone who ran out.
At this time, everyone returned to the garden, and Lihua hurriedly entered the house and said: "Girl, there is no one who ran away early, and I don't know who actually entered the garden in the middle of the night." ”
"It's just a thief, I don't talk about your laziness on weekdays, but now you forget to close the door. Who was in charge of yesterday's curfew? Seeing the girl asking angrily, Mrs. Zhang lowered her eyes and lowered her head and walked forward, "Yesterday was the old slave's business, but the old slave remembered that the door was closed." At that time, she was still talking to Mrs. Song, and she also saw it. ”
Mrs. Song nodded hurriedly: "The old slave is looking, Mrs. Zhang closed the door before entering the house." ”
"So according to you, someone opened the door and let the thief in?" Zhu Jiu's eyes looked at the two of them coldly, and Mrs. Song and Mrs. Zhang hurriedly replied: "That's not what the old slave meant.....
After all, Mrs. Zhang is an old man, and she has gone into the courtyard to serve before.
Hearing the girl's words, her mind changed quickly, and she quickly changed her words and said: "The old slave thought about it carefully, and went to the small kitchen at that time, probably because he forgot to close the door. ”
Nan Lin glanced at Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Song, and scolded: "If I hadn't stayed outside and found out, I'm afraid I would have frightened the girl." I don't care so much about doing things in the garden, so I just beat you out, so as not to block the girl! ”
Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Song begged for scolding, and nodded again and again to beg for mercy.
But the copper who was standing on a trip didn't say a word, just stood with his head down.
Zhu Jiu looked disgusted, twisted his eyebrows and said, "Okay, don't you go down early to rest!" ”
"Miss Xie is kind." The mother-in-law got the words, and hurriedly went out of the house.
The copper who was waiting on the side blessed his body and went out with him.
As soon as the people left, Nan Lin walked to the door and took a look, and saw that they had all entered the house, so he came to the girl and said: "Slave and maid, look, the door bolt is all good, and it doesn't look like someone has pried it on." ”
"The door is opened from the inside, so naturally there will be no signs of prying." Zhu Jiu lost his sleepiness and simply got up and got out of bed.
Nan Lin took a step forward and helped his girl, "According to the slave maid, it is the thing that turns out of our garden." ”
How could there be a thief in the house, or the little guy came into the backyard.
If this matter spreads, the girls in their own family will have to be tongue-in-cheek, and the most important thing is to marry the Shao family this year.
