Chapter 11: The Incident
Tan Ran was woken up by freezing two hours later, and the cold wind of December was blowing, and the cold people were shivering.
She looked around and recognized that this was a pavilion in Xu's mansion, and breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately she was not brought to the bandits' den, fortunately she was still in the world.
Holding on to his frozen legs, it was not easy to stand up, Tan Ran couldn't help but scold that male duck voice in his heart, wishing him a male duck voice for the rest of his life!
Of course, the male duck didn't know that Tan Ran blessed him so much in his heart, and if he knew, he would definitely not mind throwing a cunning woman who didn't know how to be grateful into the water of this cold winter wax moon to soak in it, and clear his brain well.
When Tan Ran walked to the gate of the courtyard, there was a sudden bang, which exploded in the sky, and then more banging sounded in the air, and gorgeous fireworks lit up the dark sky.
Tan Ran fell asleep peacefully with a banging sound in the air.
In the afternoon, the slaves who had been eating, drinking, and playing and rarely resting for a while were assembled, and the whole house was filled with wolf smoke.
Tan Ran knew in her heart that the theft of the treasury should have been discovered, and a search in the entire house was essential, but it was outrageous that the house was poor and white, and it was not necessary for the three mothers-in-law to come over, for fear that the Xu family would take the opportunity to find her marriage certificate.
After looking for a long time, I didn't find it, several mothers-in-law glanced at each other, and one of the mothers-in-law with a rather sharp face came up and said: "Miss Tan, there has been a thief in the house, and the master is asking everyone to go to the main hall, Miss, please." ”
Tan Ran didn't seem to see the mess in the house, and turned to leave.
There are a lot of people gathered in the main hall at the moment, Tan Ran came over and no one paid attention, there was a housekeeper who was organizing the crowd to stand in columns, a few genuine ladies in the Xu Mansion did not see it, only some concubines and their children were standing on the side, the housekeeper arranged personnel to enter the side hall next door one by one, the door was closed, and I couldn't hear what was being said inside, Tan Ran found a team, followed everyone to move slowly, and listened to the gossip.
"Hey, what the hell is missing?"
"It seems to be an important official document in the master's study, the kind that can't be shown to others."
"Why did the thief steal that thing, you can't eat or drink."
"Who knows, but I've heard that if this thing is lost, it will be killed."
"Oh, it's so serious, it's going to have to be found quickly."
"Not really."
"But that thief is also really, and he came out to steal things in the Chinese New Year's Eve, deliberately not letting people have a good year."
"I don't know where the thief stole to the county commander's house."
"Yes, fortunately, our master is honest and honest, and there are no jewels at home."
"Phew, this thief is too stupid to ask before stealing."
"Hey, you say, did the thief turn around and didn't find anything valuable, and stole the master's official letter in a fit of anger?"
"Don't say it, it's really possible."
Tan Ran pursed her lips and suppressed the smile at the corner of her mouth, Xu He, Xu He, obviously the gold, silver and jewelry in the library dazzled the two thieves, and they still looked incorruptible in front of the world, thinking of this, Tan Ran suddenly felt that those two thieves were very powerful, they could actually know Xu He's real family background, and they could actually find the place where the treasures were collected, she thought about the bag of the two people last night, it was half a human circle, and there was a dingdong ring in it, this time it must have made Xu He bleed, and I don't know where those two thieves were, they were very bold.
The people in front were shouted one after another to the side hall for questioning, Tan Ran followed the back of the team and moved slowly, suddenly his eyes stared, looking at a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl who had just come out of the side hall, and Tan Ran had a jade pendant tied around her waist that Tan Ran had been looking for for a long time and had not found, she remembered that this girl was the fifth lady of Xu's house, she was born to Xu and a concubine, she was usually not very favored, and her eating, drinking, and clothing were naturally not as good as Mrs. Xu's children. didn't shoot together, and there was even a rare friendly exchange between the two of them, why was Yu Pei on her?
The girl still had a little frightened look on her face, and when she came out, she went to a mother-in-law, who comforted her, and the girl's face improved.
It just so happened that it was Tan Ran's turn here.
