"Oh my God—"
Wu'er's voice was already shrill and thin, and this exclamation seemed to have pierced the sky and called out a room full of sleepy people to their spirits.
The basket complained a little blamefully: "On the day of the big day, what do you blame for it?" ”
Wu'er stumbled over, her face was very white, and she could barely stand on her feet: "Miss, it's bad, it's bad!" Storeroom! Storeroom! Miss's dowry is missing more than a dozen boxes! ”
"What's going on!" The basket was so frightened that the comb in his hand fell off, and before he had time to say more, he ran out with her.
Pei Xie Tang thought for a moment and stood up with a frown.
As soon as I walked to the door of the warehouse, I saw two girls standing stiffly at the door of the warehouse, unable to move a step. She came over and looked inside, and then she felt her heart sink and instantly clenched her fists.
The dowry was counted yesterday, and all of them were packed into boxes and covered with red silk. But now the dozen or so boxes of dowries placed by the door are all scattered, still wrapped in red silk, and they don't look unusual on the outside, but the seven or eight boxes that have been opened have already been empty, and not a single silk silk has been seen.
The basket ran into the storeroom like a frenzy, and after opening the boxes in a row, he collapsed beside the empty boxes and cried.
The dowry was all stolen!
Who is it?
She raised her head and stared at the fog like a thorn: "Who has been to the warehouse?" ”
"The slave doesn't know." Wu'er was so anxious that she cried: "The slave really doesn't know. ”
"Then how did you find out that the dowry was missing?" Pei Xie Tang was very suspicious, she didn't need the dowry in the morning, there was no reason to come over and tap it again, she didn't doubt Wu'er's loyalty, she must have found something wrong with Wu'er, so she came to check it out.
Wu'er's tears rolled down: "Yesterday I tapped the items to be used today, and found that the lady's rouge was about to run out, and we rushed to Yanzhifang last night to order a new rouge, and the shopkeeper promised to send it early, and the slave went to the back door to get it, and picked it up on the ground." As he spoke, he handed out a golden hairpin, "The slave remembered that this hairpin was very popular with the young lady, and said that she was going to take it to the palace, and she wondered how it was on the ground." But as soon as she looked up, the slave saw an earring falling from the crack not far away. ”
As he spoke, he took out another white jade earring.
Pei Xie Tang took it, the ominous premonition in her heart had become a reality, she understood that someone had thrown her dowry outside the mansion, and it had already been picked up after a night.
The slave remembered that these were the dowries of the young lady, and after taking the rouge, she hurried back to check it, but the result was ......," and she cried so much that she couldn't speak.
The basket was even more guilty and beat himself again and again: "It's all to blame on the slave and the maid, it's all to blame for the slave and the maid's carelessness, the slave and the maid shouldn't have slept last night!" ”
"yes, we should have thought that someone was going to make trouble!" Wu'er was very worried: "If you stick to it, there will be no accident." Now that the guests are coming soon, what can I do with the lady's dowry! ”
The basket gritted his teeth hatefully: "It must be the second miss, the Xie family closed the door yesterday, and no one from outsiders can enter." ”
Pei Xie Tang hummed and didn't speak.
The grudge with Xie Feifei was not a day or two, she just didn't expect that Xie Feifei would be so good and would give her such a hand the day before she got married.
is about to get married, and even if she finds out, she will definitely not have time to prepare a new one!
It was she who underestimated Xie Feifei!
Pei Xie Tang's face was gloomy, and Xie Feifei, who had been in the previous feud, did not move, which made her relax her vigilance. It seems that the quilt that Aunt Qiu gave her yesterday gave Xie Feifei a lot of stimulation, so she was determined to take revenge on herself.
If she knew this, she shouldn't have been merciful yesterday!
"Don't cry, count and see how much dowry is left." Pei Xie Tang rubbed his forehead and said in a cold voice: "Wait until today to settle the account, for now, it is important to take care of the overall situation first." ”
The basket and the fog wiped away their tears, and hurriedly got up to count the boxes.
After counting it three times, the basket cried fiercely: "Miss, of our thirty-six dowry, there are now twenty-eight left." ”
Lost six lifts!
Pei Xie Tang was silent for a while, and soon, a heart precipitated, and as soon as the cold frost on his body was collected, it was like seeing the blue sky through the clouds, Pei Xie Tang showed a sly smile instead, and said briskly: "These thirty-six lifts are all made up with all their net worth, and it is not easy to change them now." Basket, you go and ask my dad to come over. ”
"Yes." I don't know why the basket is, but I still went very obediently.
After a short time, Xie Yijiang followed behind the basket and entered the Manjiang Garden.
Seeing the scene in the warehouse, Xie Yijiang was also taken aback: "The basket said that the dowry was stolen, what happened?" ”
"Dad, please see." Pei Xie Tang opened the empty box for Xie Yijiang to look at, and flattened his mouth aggrievedly. Ba said: "The things that my daughter carefully prepared were thrown outside the house and picked up by passers-by. ”
"Who did it?" Xie Yijiang didn't have her flexible mind, but felt appalling.
Pei Xie Tang said: "It doesn't matter who does it now, the important thing is that Dad, my daughter will get married in a while, and without these dowries, isn't this a joke to make others wait to see your daughter?" ”
"What do you mean?" Xie Yijiang thought about it for a while, and immediately ruled out the possibility of re-opening.
Pei Xie Tang blessed his body, and said very guiltily: "The palace gave a dowry of forty-eight lifts, and my daughter was originally going to raise the dowry of thirty-six lifts, but the tongue of the others fell, and now she can't even raise the thirty-six lifts, and she has no face to see people." In a hurry, her daughter had a reluctant request, and she asked her father to save her daughter's face. ”
"You say." Xie Yijiang frowned.
Pei Xie Tang glanced at him: "The second sister is going to enter the East Palace a few days later than her daughter, and her father has prepared a dowry of twelve lifts for her, can she embezzle eight lifts to her daughter for emergencies?" After today, my daughter will return it to the second sister. ”
"Okay, let's do it." At the moment, this is probably the only way, Xie Yijiang agreed very neatly: "I'll go and ask the housekeeper to find someone to move over." ”
He went out.
Pei Xie Tang slowly hooked the corners of his mouth, and finally laughed heartily.
Xie Feifei lost her dowry, she has a way to get it back, but it takes time. But right now, Xie Feifei must not have imagined that it was her own revenge for losing her dowry.
The basket and the others solved this problem when they saw Pei Xie Tang in four or two thousand pounds, and they also took revenge on Xie Feifei by the way, and after being stunned, they immediately rejoiced.
Pei Xie Tang looked at the girls with a smile: "Why are you still stunned!" Wu'er, you will draw up a list of the things you lost, and I will find a way to get them back after the incident, it's all money. Also, Steward Dong will send the dowry later, you are waiting at the gate of the yard to pick up things, baskets, hurry up, my hair hasn't been combed yet, you have to make it beautiful for me today, otherwise I won't punish you! ”
For a while, Man Jiangting was happy again.
Xie Feifei was not so lucky.
Losing Pei Xietang's dowry in the middle of the night, she slept very happily this night, and when she opened her eyes, she was woken up by Jin'er tremblingly: "Miss, something happened." ”
"Is it Manjiangting?" Xie Feifei asked happily.
Jin'er shook her head and said very frightenedly: "Just now, the master brought Steward Dong over and moved the eight boxes of dowry in our warehouse, saying that it was for the third lady first." ”
"It must be Xie Chengyin's request!" Xie Feifei turned over and stood up: "This slut! ”
"Xie Feifei, is there anyone like you who insults your sister?" Xie Yijiang asked the housekeeper to move the dowry, thinking that it was the second daughter's thing after all, and he had to talk to the second daughter, and deliberately waited for Jin'er to call someone up, but as soon as he entered the house, he heard Xie Feifei's angry roar, and his face turned purple with anger.
Xie Feifei saw Steward Dong directing people to carry the dowry outside, and he didn't care about wearing shoes, so he ran out.
Hearing Xie Yijiang's question, he was even more furious: "Dad, you are biased!" You are partial to Xie Chengyin's slut, she already has twenty-eight dowries, and you have to give her your daughter's as well. You are unfair to me, what's wrong with me scolding her, it's all your daughter, are you worthy of me? ”
"Dad doesn't have it, just borrow it, and she'll pay it back to you." Xie Yijiang was very headache and suppressed his anger and explained: "Something happened to Manjiang Court......
But before the words fell, he reacted suddenly, as if he was frozen, looked at the crazy daughter in front of him with completely unfamiliar eyes, and said word by word: "Feifei, how do you know that there are only twenty-eight dowries left in Manjiang Court?" ”
The people in Manjiangting also just knew that Xie Feifei hadn't even gotten up yet, so there was no reason to hear about it, unless......
He stared at the daughter in front of him: "Could it be that you took the dowry?" ”
Xie Feifei was stunned for a moment, and immediately opened his mouth to quibble: "It was Jin'er who told me." ”
"Jin'er didn't even go out of the courtyard door, and I didn't say anything when I came just now, how did she know?" Xie Yijiang's heart fell, looking at Xie Feifei's strange expression, he knew that he had guessed right.
Xie Feifei stiffened: "It was someone else who told Jin'er, and Jin'er told me again." ”
"Still lying!"
Xie Yijiang gritted his teeth, couldn't bear it anymore, and slapped Xie Feifei in the face, beating Xie Feifei to a stumbling moment, before he stepped forward and said, "You disappointed my father too much." What day is today, you are so nonsense, let Dad and Chengyin's faces be put in it? In the past, I indulged you, and it seems that I really hurt you. You give me a good reflection here. As for the dowry, I don't think there is any need to let Cheng Yin pay it back, she didn't come up and beat you in person, she is already very tolerant. ”
No wonder, no wonder Xie Chengyin stopped him in the Manjiang Court just now and forbade him to ask, thinking that he had already guessed that it was Xie Feifei's hands and feet.
What a good daughter he raised!
will only stumble on him at home, so that he will not worry, he should have been ruthless in the first place, so that the Fan family could not give birth to these two children, and it would not make the Qi family sad and sad, and he would not be sick for a long time after giving birth to Xie Chengyin.
That gas!
Xie Yijiang didn't want to look at Xie Feifei anymore, so he asked Steward Dong to carry the dowry, flick his sleeves and leave.
Xie Feifei sat on the ground, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and when she came back to her senses and looked at Xie Yijiang's back as she left angrily, she felt afraid.
At three o'clock, the door of the Xie family was opened, and as soon as the firecrackers went off, the Xie family suddenly became lively.
