Chapter 70: The Flower Thief

Xin Yi sorted out his language and said: "It's not weird, that money-making method was found by Daying, but the slave maid privately thinks that it is not suitable for the lady." ā€

Hearing that it was the big eagle who was looking for it, Mo Xiaodie became more interested, "Let's hear about it." ā€

Xin Yi was still struggling, but seeing his mother's excited expression, he could only say: "Recently, there was a flower thief in the city, and his behavior was bad, and the government offered a reward of 1,000 taels to mobilize the people to arrest him together!" ā€

Mo Xiaodie didn't expect this incident to be such a peachy incident, how old is a certain child, does he know what a flower thief is? After pondering for a moment, he said, "Do you have any details?" ā€

Xin Yi originally only said half of it was looking forward to his own lady retreating in the face of difficulties, no matter how extraordinary his own lady is, she will marry someone in the future, it would be unruly to meet Xiao Langjun frequently in private, if she gets involved in this kind of case again, it is really unsightly, but her own lady clearly does not have the word "retreat" in her mind.

She doubted that there would be any man who would be able to hold such a lady in the future.

She sighed secretly, and resigned herself to her fate, "The first person to report to the official was a man surnamed Chen, who lived in the east of the city, and he had a daughter under his knees, who had already been married.

That Chen Langjun was so angry that he beat and scolded her, and knocked her unconscious, and the lady was not willing to change her words, and then Chen Langjun found several letters in his daughter's room, and the content of the letter was single, all of which were the same person's handwriting, and it was all written and full of the content of when the sender would visit this lady, and it was late at night, and Chen Langjun was angry when he saw it, and the lady saw that her secret had been revealed, and she did not hide it anymore.

She didn't like the family affair that her father set for her, her father wanted to marry her to a butcher whose wife died half a month ago for the sake of silver, and it is said that the butcher's wife was beaten to death by him, but it was just the order of her parents, and the matchmaker's words, she was completely incapable of resisting this family business.

Later, more than a month ago, when she was sleeping at night, a man suddenly appeared in her room, the man was very handsome, and when he saw her, he immediately coaxed her, saying that he had no malice, he knew the pain in her heart, and he came to find her, that night, the man had been talking to her very patiently and gently, but he did not do anything to her, as if he really came to talk to her.

Later, the man often came, every time, she would first find a letter at her bedside, which wrote the time and place of his coming, the lady was also like a ghost, did not tell anyone about it, the man and the lady after about five or six trysts, he told her that he would find a way to take her away, would not let her marry the murderous man, and marry her as his wife, but he had no money now, and she had to wait for him for a while.

Finally, he also gave her a bead as a token......"

Mo Xiaodie immediately raised her eyes to look at Xin Yi, her eyes slightly fierce, "Beads? ā€

Xin Yi didn't understand how the lady's attention ran to this token, she was stunned, and nodded: "Well, it is said to be a glass bead the size of a baby's fist." ā€

It can't be such a coincidence, right? Mo Xiaodie thought for a moment and said, "And then?" Is this one the only flower he picks? ā€

If it was just a lady from an ordinary family, how could the government arrest this flower thief in such a big battle? And a generous reward of 1,000 taels?

Xin Yi nodded, and said with a solemn face: "It is said that there are still a few victimized families, but after the incident, for the sake of their own girl's reputation, they naturally dare not publicize it everywhere."

Since Chen Langjun went to the government to report the case, he has found several victimized families one after another, they didn't want to tell this matter, but the girl in the family encountered that kind of thing, as long as the matter is concealed from death, no one will know......"

Mo Xiaodie understood, "Something special has happened, so they can only choose to report to the official." ā€

Xin Yi's face appeared again with the tangled expression at the beginning, she didn't want her mother to get involved in this matter, Yu had a bad reputation second, mainly because this fact was too evil!

"Yes, the flower thief will give them a glass bead every time he approaches them, so you can be sure that those ladies are all in contact with the same. Wickedly, those who have been victimized...... I didn't blame the man at all, but behaved to him...... It's infatuated, it's like, it's like being tricked!

Those ladies have reached the age of marriage, and some are said to have been married, but they are all clamoring for non-monarchs not to marry, and one lady was forced by her parents to be ruthless, and actually hanged herself, but fortunately she was discovered in time and did not cause a big disaster.

But except for Chen Langjun, the following are all rumors circulated among the people, because Chen Langjun's subsequent reports to the official's house were all carried out secretly, and the government was asked not to tell them. ā€

Mo Xiaodie looked at Xin Yi in disbelief, so evil? She thought for a moment and said, "Every lady has a glass bead?" So can you find out now, how many ladies have been killed? ā€

Xiao Churui said that there are only ten Qingling beads in total, if those beads are Qingling beads, it is simply a year-end big giveaway!

Mo Xiaodie prefers that it is not a Qingling bead, but a glass bead the size of a baby's fist suddenly appeared at such a time, no matter how you think about it, it is too much of a coincidence!

Xin Yi thought for a while and said, "With the addition of Mrs. Chen, it is said that a total of four ladies have been killed at present, and it is not sure if there will be more." ā€

Xin Yi said that later, he couldn't help frowning slightly, the kind of man who secretly tarnished the innocence of a woman is too dirty, those ladies are still obsessed after knowing the truth, and they don't know what dirty means that man used to make those women die for him.

It's not that there have been cases of such flower thieves in the past, but it's the first time that all the women have protected the adulterous thief!

Mo Xiaodie said thoughtfully: "Among the four women, there is probably one woman who is not an ordinary person, or a courtier or a lady in a big family. ā€

This society is very realistic, if it is just four civilian women, the government will not spend a lot of money to solve the case.

One thousand taels of silver, it's really heartwarming, it's heartwarming, it's heartbeat, but no matter how you think about it, this is not something she can meddle in, not to mention that she is now locked up in the courtyard of the deep house and has no freedom, and when she has freedom, the case will be solved long ago!

This case is almost engraved with a few big characters on it - "I have something to do with Qinglingzhu", Xiao Churui and they will definitely not leave it alone, with their intervention, will the time to solve the case be far away?

Alas......

Mo Xiaodie fell backwards and looked up at the ceiling, just casually pulled up the black hair and draped down the back of the chair like a waterfall, with a sad face, the days without money are too bitter!

Xin Yi: "......"

My own lady has been getting more and more unkind in front of her recently, what does the lady say is this? It seems to be ...... Let your freak flag fly?

……

Mo Xiaodie originally thought that this matter had nothing to do with her, and the existence value of the thousand taels of silver was to make her eyes red, but who expected that after dinner the next day, Wei Ziling suddenly came to her room, with a look of helplessness and confusion.

Mo Xiaodie quietly observed her, asked her to sit down at the table in the small hall, and poured her a cup of tea, "Why is your face so bad?" Didn't sleep well last night? ā€

Wei Ziling's eyes were empty, and she was silent for a while, and suddenly grabbed her hand, leaving two lines of tears in the corner of her eyes, "Second sister, you save me, I'm ...... I don't know what to do...... I—I seem to be being targeted by a flower thief! ā€
