Chapter 4 The cheongsam disappears
I told Qian Huili what I had just seen, and Qian Huili's face was like ashes, standing at the top of the stairs, motionless.
"Didn't I tell you you not to go into that room?" Zhang's mother's voice came, I don't know when, she stood behind me, I didn't even hear her footsteps.
"Yes, I'm sorry. I went to the bathroom and saw a red light in the room, so I ....... I was busy explaining.
Zhang's mother's face was gloomy, and she said angrily: "That's Mr. Sun's storeroom, if you lose something, you are suspicious." ”
"I didn't take anything!" I immediately argued, "There's also a glowing cheongsam in the room, the same one I brought, and I was about to ask what's going on." ”
Qian Huili walked down the stairs, twisted her waist, and a smile appeared on her face again, but the smile was very reluctant: "How come, if our family really has the same cheongsam as you, I won't call me to make clothes." ”
"What I saw with my own eyes, can I still be fake?" I asked her rhetorically.
Zhang's mother said in a cold tone: "Whether there is it or not, it has nothing to do with you." You better go back to the house and sleep, and tomorrow you have to make clothes for Miss Qian. ”
She is right, even if someone else has the same cheongsam, it is someone else's thing, what does it have to do with me, others are not obliged to explain to me.
Back in my room, I was distraught and couldn't fall asleep. Thinking about the scene I saw in the storage room, I took out the bag at the head of the bed, entered the unlock code, and wanted to compare the two cheongsams again, maybe I really saw it wrong?
However, when I opened the bag and took out all the contents of the bag, I couldn't find the red cheongsam.
The red cheongsam is gone!
I felt cold in my heart and hurried to the living room. Qian Huili and Zhang's mother didn't know what they were talking about, and when they saw me, they stopped.
"My cheongsam is gone, the cheongsam in the storage room must be mine!" I was in a hurry to say anything.
Qian Huili didn't seem to be very happy, she looked at Zhang's mother: "Take Wu Lu to the storage room to have a look, don't let him think that we took his things." ”
Zhang's mother took out a key and led me to the storage room. I saw that the storage room had been locked and there was a security door outside. I think back to when I walked into the pantry, it didn't seem like there was this door.
I followed her in, turned on the light, and there was indeed a pile of antiques and calligraphy and paintings. I didn't have the heart to appreciate it, so I just looked at the wall.
There is no red cheongsam on the wall!
I don't give up, I seriously find it in the antique pile. Until I saw an oil painting, the woman in the painting was wearing a red cheongsam, and her appearance felt very familiar to me.
"Did you find it?" Mama Zhang's cold voice came again.
"No, but I clearly saw the cheongsam before, why is it missing again?" I stared at the oil painting and thought to myself, could it be that the cheongsam got into the oil painting?
Zhang's mother said, "If you finish looking for it, we can go out now." ”
I walked out of the pantry, depressed. The red cheongsam disappeared like this, and there was no trace of destruction of the password package, what the hell is going on?
If there really was a fourth person in the room, could she have taken it? Or, she's not human at all.
I sat in the living room until dawn and didn't sleep all night. Now it seems that I can't go if I want to, the cheongsam is gone, how can I explain it to my grandfather?
I don't know when, I was napping on the sofa and was woken up by Qian Huili. Only then did I find out that it was already eight o'clock in the morning, and Zhang's mother had made breakfast.
"Wu Lu, or you should call the police." Qian Huili said.
"No, no. That cheongsam was already very weird, not to mention that there were security doors in and out of this house, and my bag had a password, so it was very difficult for thieves to get their hands on it. I rubbed my eyes and said.
Qian Huili whispered: "You suspect that it is me and Zhang's mother......"
"No, no, Miss Qian, don't get me wrong, I just feel strange and don't suspect you." I'll say it right away.
"In that case, let's have breakfast first." Qian Huili's voice is very gentle, she is still wearing pajamas, and when she leans over, the alluring scenery can be seen at a glance.
I'm embarrassed: "Does Zhang's mother make dinner in advance every time?" ”
Qian Huili said: "This is Zhang's mother's habit, especially when Abin comes over later, she will prepare three meals in advance." ”
"Oh, it seems that Mama Zhang is indeed very dutiful." I complimented Zhang's mother, who was next to her, but she didn't seem to hear it.
After I washed up briefly, a middle-aged man with a long beard walked in, he was forty years old, to say the least.
Qian Huili is only twenty-five, but her husband is so much older than her, and the other party is not good-looking, I realized that it is probably money at work.
From listening to Qian Huili and Zhang's mother before, I know that his name is Sun Bin. I said hello to him, and the other party's attitude seemed to be very unfriendly, and asked Qian Huili with a gloomy face: "Who is he?" ”
Qian Huili walked up to him with an intimate attitude: "This is Wu Lu who I invited to order clothes, and their family has been tailors for five generations, which is not comparable to ordinary clothing stores." ”
Sun Bin didn't say anything, he glanced at Zhang's mother, Zhang's mother nodded, Sun Bin kissed Qian Huili, and said with a smile: "As long as you're happy." Also, since there are guests at home, don't dress like this, go and change your clothes. ”
Qian Huili walked upstairs very obediently, and when she came down again, she was already wearing denim shorts and a shirt.
Sitting down, Sun Bin and I chatted for a while, knowing that I would only make women's clothes, he couldn't help laughing: "Interesting, if you want to take advantage of women, isn't it easy?" ”
There was ridicule in his words, but I said seriously: "Every line has its own rules, and Mr. Sun will not take advantage of customers when he does antique business, right?" ”
It is estimated that Sun Bin didn't expect me to say such a thing, he was stunned at first, and then said with a smile: "Mr. Wu really has a personality, and being a tailor is too condescending." ”
"Three hundred and sixty lines, the line is the champion. I don't know anything about antiques and just want to make good clothes. I said.
Qian Huili took it and said, "Abin, I lost the red cheongsam that Mr. Wu brought last night, and I am depressed, you should think of a way." ”
Sun Bin frowned: "Last night? It turns out that he came yesterday and hasn't left? ”
"Oh, don't think about it, I mean people lose their things, and you have to give them an explanation." Qian Huili said.
Sun Bin snorted coldly: "If you lose something, you can find it, it doesn't matter if you can't find it, it's because you lost something in my house, how much is it, make a price, I will pay for it." ”
This indifferent attitude makes me angry, in the past, I could settle everything with money? But Qian Huili is my customer after all, I held back my anger and didn't attack, I have seen more customers with a worse attitude than Sun Bin, there is no need to be angry with this kind of person.
After breakfast, Zhang's mother went to buy fabrics. Sun Bin went upstairs to rest, and Qian Huili accompanied me downstairs to find a cheongsam.
We searched all the rooms, the front and back yards, but we still couldn't find the cheongsam.
"Will your cheongsam grow legs and run away on its own?" Qian Huili asked with a smile.
My heart sank, she might be joking, but I felt that the red cheongsam had a life, and she was hiding in a corner, looking at us coldly......
