Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
"Xie Chengyin, you are really lawless!"
With a roar on the ground, the whole Jiangting was almost blown up, and it shook a few times with Xie Yijiang's roar.
Zhu Xinzhi walked in from the outside, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately felt strange. Didn't you just say that Xie Yijiang's attitude towards the third lady was much better, he gave his mother's dowry and moved the yard, why did he go and come back, and the whole person changed?
He was puzzled: "What's going on?" ”
"This is the household matter of the lower officials, don't bother the prince!" Xie Yijiang bowed his hand to him coldly, obviously very dissatisfied that he was still here.
Zhu Xinzhi's face was a little red, but he suppressed the embarrassment that came up, and turned his head to look at Pei Xie Tang: "Is it for this hairpin?" ”
"Isn't it? The prince doesn't know, our third lady of the Xie family may be patient, stealing her mother's dowry to sell it, and then exchanging it for silver to buy clothes and jewelry for herself, and she looks pitiful. Fan Shi added fuel and vinegar to the number: "Don't be deceived by her miserable appearance, you will definitely regret it in the future." ”
"Stole?" Zhu Xinzhi was a little confused: "This is Gao Xing's send!" ”
Sent? Didn't you say stealing?
If these words came out of Pei Xie Tang's mouth, Xie Yijiang might not believe it, but this was said by Zhu Xinzhi, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
"That's what she lied to the prince!" Seeing that even Zhu Xinzhi knew, Fan was weak for a while, and immediately refuted it.
Zhu Xinzhi was silent.
In this matter, he absolutely believes in Xie Chengyin. After all, I have seen with my own eyes how much Gao Xingzhi cares about Xie Chengyin, and then look at the expensive medicinal materials next to her pillow, but a piece of clothing and jewelry, Gao Xingzhi can give far more than this, and when he sends it, he guarantees that he will not blink his eyes.
Xie Chengyin listened to Fan's more and more outrageous words, her face sank, pinched the hairpin in her hand, and she spoke up: "My aunt said that I stole it, I want to ask my aunt, what is the evidence?" ”
"Someone in the house saw it." Fan straightened his back.
She had expected that this dead girl would definitely ask such a question, and she was completely prepared.
A little girl walked up: "The slave maid saw it herself, and the third lady went to the treasury and took a wishful lily hairpin, a red light coral, and a bird splash left by the eldest lady." When the third lady came back, she was holding a big box with these clothes inside. ”
"Oh?" Pei Xie Tang raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You saw me take it out and sell it with your own eyes?" Which shop did you sell to? ”
"That pawnshop in the north of the city!" The girl was a little hesitant.
Pei Xie Tang smiled more cheerfully: "That pawnshop in the north of the city, what is it called one or two profits or something, right?" The girl nodded, and she snorted: "If I remember well, this pawnshop is still run by the Gao family." Gao Xingzhi's mansion is not too far from our house, back and forth, a small half pillar of incense is enough. Basket, go to Gao's house, and ask Gao Gongzi to come over and say a few words. ”
"This ......" Fan obviously didn't expect this, and was stunned for a moment.
"Gao Gongzi and you are old friends, it is inevitable that they will not cover up." Xie Yiyi panicked for a moment and said quickly.
Pei Xie Tang raised his eyes and looked at her: "Eldest sister's words are wrong. If Gao Gongzi will brave the anger of the prince and father to cover me, it means that I have a lot to do with Gao Gongzi. Then I can't figure it out, you said that Gao Gongzi's family has a big business, and there is no shortage of these dozens or hundreds of taels of silver, is it possible that our relationship is so good, I want to take his set of clothes for emergency, he is still reluctant, I want silver! ”
That's the truth.
Xie Yijiang was silent, looked around the house, and didn't find any boxes for clothes, obviously, there was no reason to throw away if he bought them. Lingfang's things, the boxes for clothes are notoriously beautiful, and they can be decorated with other things when they are brought back, and basically no one is willing to throw them away.
This doesn't make sense!
Fan didn't expect Pei Xie Tang to be able to say so much, and she was a general, and in a weak heart, he actually retorted: "You don't admit it, am I still wronging you?" ”
"You're wronging people." Zhu Xinzhi answered coldly: "The third lady didn't take those things, but you insisted that she took them." There are a few truths and falsehoods in what this girl said, and this king is really suspicious. Your Excellency, you might as well take a good trial. ”
This is Xie Yijiang's own job, he is very handy at doing it, but after a few words, the little girl can't bear the eyes of the famous Huai'an prince, and can't bear the questioning of her master, so she recruits everything: "It was the lady who asked the slave to say this, and the slave didn't know anything." ”
Xie Yiyi's face was ugly, staring at Pei Xie Tang's gaze and only wanting to kill.
Pei Xie Tang sneered, okay, if she was wronged for stealing, she really wouldn't let go of the mother and daughter.
"You little girl, you are not in the treasury on weekdays, what is in the warehouse, how can you be so clear, and still tell the things like a few treasures?" Pei Xie Tang narrowed his eyes: "If I'm not mistaken, my mother's dowry is sealed in a box, and I haven't taken out a few things so far!" Even I don't know what's in it, where do you have such a good memory? ”
Xie Yijiang also wanted to ask this question, but the little girl panicked: "The slave and maid really don't know, it was all said by the lady who asked the slave and maid." ”
"Fan!" Xie Yijiang turned his head to look at her, his eyes were very dangerous: "Qi's dowry, you really used it?" ”
When she asked Fan for something before, she said that there was not much dowry left, and Xie Yijiang thought it was her excuse not to take it in order to shirk it. Now it seems that the dowry is really passive!
"Concubine...... The concubine ......" Fan couldn't find anything to say, and he was very embarrassed for a while.
Xie Yijiang didn't embarrass her, turned around and walked to the warehouse, and Fan hurriedly chased out: "Master, you listen to what the concubine said......"
Pei Xie Tang couldn't get up, so he motioned to the basket with his eyes to catch up and take a look, and by the way, if possible, he took all his mother's things back.
Zhu Xinzhi also calmly frowned and went up to see the excitement.
Xie Yijiang walked the fastest, rushed to the warehouse, and let the mother-in-law who guarded the door open the door, there were many things in the house, all of which were packed in boxes, he walked to one of them and opened it, but was stunned by the empty box. I opened a few in a row, but they were all empty, and the contents were gone.
A stream of qi and blood surged above his head, and Xie Yijiang's body shook with it, and after a while, he turned around and stared at Fan's miserable white face: "Where's the thing?" ”
"The concubine body is all used." Fan knew that he couldn't hide it, so he straightened his waist and let it go: "The master only asks about family affairs all year round, how can he know the expenses of the family?" Yes, it's true that the shop is profitable, but a big family wants to eat and drink, and now Yiyi and Feifei have reached the age of saying goodbye, especially Yiyi, the wedding is coming, how can that bit of silver make Yiyi marry into the Wen family in a beautiful way? The concubine took away all those things, some of them were for Yiyi to marry, some were sold, and they were re-purchased, so they couldn't let Yiyi be wronged. ”
"If you have wronged the eldest lady, won't the third lady be wronged?" Zhu Xinzhi clasped his hands together, and was upright: "If this king is not mistaken, it seems that it is the third lady who has a marriage contract with Young Master Wen." robbed the third lady's marriage contract, and now she has to rob the third lady's mother's relics as the eldest lady's dowry. The family style of your mansion is really an eye-opener for this king! ”
When he said this, Xie Yijiang's old face turned red for a while.
Yes, he didn't expect that things would turn into such a situation now, and he thought that Xie Chengyin deserved it, but he didn't expect that he owed her a lot!
At his age, he has lived in vain, and he is being played with and applauded by a woman!
Xie Yijiang was completely chilled: "Fan, didn't you say that it was the Wen family's intention to let Yiyi marry in the past, and where did this marriage robbery come from!" ”
"This is really what Mrs. Wen said, the concubine doesn't dare to lie to you." This is a big deal, even if the Fan family is killed, they will not admit it, and gritted their teeth: "The Wen family dislikes Xie Chengyin and is crippled, and refuses to ask for marriage, what can be done if they keep dragging it like this?" What's wrong with letting Yiyi marry instead of Xie Chengyin, at least, the relationship between our two families is preserved. ”
Xie Yijiang snorted, his face so dark that he didn't dare to approach.
He was so angry, thinking that Xie Chengyin had not eaten well and dressed well in the past few years, and was robbed of his mother's things by robbing him of his marriage contract, he completely ignored these things, and only knew that he was really sorry for Xie Chengyin. He promised that the Qi family would take good care of his daughter, but he didn't do it at all!
At least, this time he wants to get justice for his daughter!
He asked in a deep voice word by word: "I asked you for the last time, what about the things that the Qi family left to Chengyin?" ”
"In the main courtyard." Fan was silent for a while, and finally couldn't resist the move.
Xie Yijiang turned around and walked towards the account room of the treasury.
As soon as he saw his movements, Fan knew that something was wrong, Xie Yijiang wanted to read the account book!
She hurriedly followed, trying to stop Xie Yijiang's footsteps and prevent him from entering: "Master, the things are in the main courtyard, and the concubine will take you to get them." ”
A guilty person gives himself away by conspicuously protesting his innocence!
Xie Yijiang was furious and pushed her away: "Get out of the way!" I'm going to see today where you've spent all the money on all these years for me! ”
Fan Shi was pushed by him and fell to the ground, and Xie Yijiang bypassed her and strode in. Picking up an account book on the shelf, and only reading a few pages, Xie Yijiang's lips were trembling with anger, pointing to a few lines of words, his voice was cold: "This month alone, you spent more than thirty taels of silver to buy clothes for Yiyi and Feifei, and a few days ago, Cheng Yin came to the main courtyard and said that you gave her cold and hard buckwheat flour cakes, and you also quibbled that there was no money in the mansion...... Well, that's good! ”
He slammed the ledger on the table: "Buy silk silk for the daughter you have born, and you have silver; Give my daughter a good meal, and you dare to cry poor in front of me, Fan, you are so bold! ”
The sound shook the sky, and Fan was so frightened that he knelt down.
Xie Yiyi also broke out in a cold sweat, the account book was in front, and the evidence was ironclad, she couldn't help it at all.
