Chapter 54: The Legacy (Part II)
Speaking of which, the eldest lady deliberately mentioned the gang of thieves, "Last night, Marquis Wumu led people to arrest two thieves, and I don't know if what was found in the trial?" I took someone to investigate the house, and there was nothing lost in other houses, only the old lady's millennial house, which was turned over by the gang of thieves, and all the treasures that the old lady put away, although they were later chased back by the Hou Ye's people, but also damaged a lot of porcelain and calligraphy and paintings. ”
Tao Zhengan frowned, "Why did you go there alone?" ”
The eldest lady said, "I'm feeling weird too. ”
Tao Zhengan suddenly asked, "Could it be that the people in the house brought in these thieves?" ”
The eldest lady couldn't deny it, but said: "I don't dare to slack off, I locked all the mothers-in-law who were guarding the back door last night, and I didn't ask anything all night." The small courtyard where the thieves went first, what they said and did, we don't know, but Liu Er followed the fourth aunt over there. I wanted to call Liu Er to ask, but the fourth aunt was indispensable to her. ”
Tao Zhengan raised his eyebrows and said, "Mother just sent someone to call me over and say that Yu'er seems to have it." Last night she was frightened again, and needed to recuperate for a few more days, and now the house is in a mess, so my mother will keep her there for a few days. Yu'er also said that last night, those thieves wanted to enter her small courtyard but didn't go in, so they set a fire, and she and Liu'er finally escaped from death. As he spoke, he glanced at the eldest lady again, "If there is anything else you want to ask, just go to the old lady and ask." ”
Sure enough, because she was pregnant, she protected it. The eldest lady couldn't help but be disappointed, if the eldest master could give her a word, she would be able to go to the old lady to get someone.
It seems that this Liu'er's mouth can't be pried open, "Then we can only wait for the news from the government." ”
Tao Zhengan said: "The people from the Hou Ye's Mansion came to tell me that those two thieves were not lightly injured, and I am afraid it will be difficult for them to speak." ”
The eldest lady couldn't help but exclaim, "What can I do then?" ”
Tao Zhengan frowned, "If there is really someone in the mansion who colludes with that gang of thieves." The people in the family can't manage it well, they can't ask anything, and they still expect those thieves to say the truth? ”
The eldest lady felt a pang in her heart, she didn't know what the old lady said to her in front of Tao Zheng'an, and she actually pushed the responsibility to her, although she was resentful in her heart, she didn't show it on her face, and whispered: "What the old man said is true." While the two of them were talking, Chen's mother brought four maids over, and the maids were holding things in their hands.
Tao Zhengan frowned, "What is this going to do?" ”
The eldest lady remained silent, "This is what the fourth aunt asked me for." ”
Tao Zhengan really deliberately read all those things.
The eldest lady waited quietly for Tao Zheng'an to speak, and after a while, Tao Zhengan raised his head and looked at the eldest lady, "Are you using all these things?" ”
The eldest lady was stunned when asked, "I don't need it now." "It's all gold and silver, jewelry and cloth.
Tao Zhengan said: "Then send it to her!" ”
didn't even say a word for her, the eldest lady's face suddenly stiffened, and with a wave of her hand, Mother Chen took the maid down.
A man is like this, once his interests are touched, he is willing to give up anything, and she still has delusions about him for so many years. The eldest lady thought fiercely in her heart, the fourth aunt's pregnancy was strange, and in the end, she was afraid that the bamboo basket would be empty, and she would see what would happen to him when the time came.
Just talking about this gang of thieves, no matter who investigates it deeply, they will suspect the fourth aunt.
The fire first burned from the courtyard and burned down the wall, and the thieves entered the courtyard, and the fourth aunt came back with all the jewels on her body, and although she was missing some jewelry, she could see that she had not suffered any loss.
As soon as the thieves entered the house, they figured out the location of the Millennium House. After the thief was caught, the fourth aunt took Liu Er and hid with the old lady again.
The eldest lady didn't believe it, these thieves had nothing to do with the fourth aunt when they entered the mansion. Besides, who is the old lady? The old lady has no doubts in her heart? It's just to use the fourth aunt to deal with her.
The eldest lady snorted coldly in her heart, don't look at the fourth aunt who is proud now, there is always a time when it is true or false.
Tao Zhengan went into the inner room to change clothes, the eldest lady hurriedly followed, properly dressed Tao Zheng'an in a robe, sorted out the placket, Tao Zhengan looked at the eldest lady's flexible fingers, these years have passed, these hands seem to have never changed, "The new money bag you made for me is very beautiful." ”
The eldest lady smiled: "Which one was made by me, it was made by Eighth Miss Ronghua for the master." ”
Tao Zhengan said "um", thinking of Rong Hua's respectfulness in front of him, he couldn't help frowning, "Miss Eight...... Her mother is a Lan Qianhui, and I think Rong Hua is much more wooden than her mother. ”
Tao Zhengan didn't like it, but the eldest lady wanted to say two sentences, "Where is Mune!" I think Miss Eight is a stable person, and the third brother and sister, Duchess An Guo, and Miss Ten were all saved by her. ”
Tao Zheng'an was slightly surprised, but he didn't expect that the dull-looking daughter still had this ability, thinking it was just a coincidence.
The eldest lady was triumphant, "After this incident, we will have another layer of friendship with Duchess Anguo, and the marriage of the second sister will be smoother in the future." ”
Tao Zhengan suddenly straightened his face, "I don't think that's necessarily." This rebellion is related to the case of General Jianwei, and I heard rumors that the case of General Jianwei was handled too eagerly. As soon as the above issued a clear order to take General Jianwei, someone sealed the general's mansion and locked up several important officials under the general. Although it is a combination of human stolen goods, it makes many people panic...... Otherwise, I said that this errand is difficult to do, and it is difficult to do it, and it is difficult not to do it, and so many things have been caused at the beginning. ”
The eldest lady said: "If you want to blame, you can only blame the people below, not the Hou Ye." ”
Tao Zhengan frowned, "What do you know?" If Wu Muhou's father, An Guogong, the above will naturally not blame, An Guogong is a hero who has protected the driver, so the saint specially gave him the title of 'An Guogong' to show his favor, this Wu Muhou...... On weekdays, he is not close to anyone, and the saint does not have much preference for him, and when he inherits the title, the saint proudly indicates that he does not need to be named Marquis of Anguo, and changes the title of Marquis of Wumu, which shows that this Longen is no longer there. ”
The eldest lady hesitated: "We made a mistake in this step? ”
Tao Zhengan sighed, "After all, it is Guixun, if you can really marry our daughter, it will already be a lower value." Alas, just that thing...... Whether it is as we think, no one can see the future. ”
After the two of them finished speaking, Tao Zhengan shouted again: "Go and call the third brother over, I have something to ask him." ”
The eldest lady was busy asking people to shout, and when Tao Zhengchuan came over, she came out of the house to let his brother talk, and went to deal with other things in the house by herself.
Chen's mother asked someone to clean up the courtyard and let Miss Eight move in, and Ronghua took Jinxiu and Mu Hibiscus back to the house to pack up her things.
Rong Hua entered the house, held the stove again, and only then cautiously entered Liao's house when his body was warm, Liao's face was leaning on the magenta pillow, and his face was much better than last night. Rong Hua stepped forward and saluted, "Third aunt." ”
Liao is a newly married daughter-in-law, and she is not very accustomed to these titles, so she smiled shyly and asked the maid to bring a brocade to let Rong Hua sit down, "You guys go down, we are easy to talk to." ”
The maids all retreated.
Rong Hua sat down, and Liao smiled embarrassedly: "Thanks to you that night, otherwise those thieves wouldn't know what to do." ”
Rong Hua thought of the thrilling night that night, she was also reluctant to be brave, and later returned to the house, thinking of the person's blood splashed on her face, she hurriedly asked Jinxiu to bring water to wash her face, but no matter how she washed, she felt that she couldn't wash it cleanly, and she had an indescribable strange feeling in her heart, she couldn't sleep all night, and she could think of the person's death when she closed her eyes.
After all, it was the first time she saw a person die in front of her, and that scene will be remembered for the rest of her life.
Rong Hua looked out of his mind, and the Liao family also remembered that night, at the critical moment, it was Wu Muhou who broke the siege, and Hou Ye and Rong Hua looked at each other quietly...... She didn't think anything at the time, but when she remembered it, the two of them stood together...... The Liao family hurriedly put away his thoughts, Rong Hua is a concubine after all, and Wu Muhou is talking about Yaohua.
Rong Hua looked at Liao's appearance, not like she had something important to ask her, she couldn't help but get anxious, thought about it and finally said, "The tenth sister has been with me all the time, she was frightened last night and didn't talk much, but today she is much better, after seeing the third aunt in the morning, I have been thinking about it when I go back." ”
Liao sighed, "Jinghua is a good boy, she was fine, but she encountered this kind of thing on the road, if you hadn't asked the maid to change her clothes that night, the house still doesn't know how it would have been spread." ”
Miss Ten is a weak one, and she doesn't have any scheming, when Rong Hua was still Miss Five, she got along with her, she didn't talk much on weekdays, she was not good at being sophisticated, and she didn't treat people well, but if she got better, she was single-minded, and now her biological mother Tao Qian died, not to mention, she encountered such a change again.
I couldn't sleep last night, Miss Ten also asked her about Miss Five, probably grateful to her, Miss Ten quickly let go of her guard and slept in the same bed with her, and when she didn't fall asleep at night, I heard Miss Ten say, "What kind of person is she, it's gone so early, I'm better than her." ”
Rong Hua knew that Miss Ten was sighing at Miss Five, and Miss Ten's heart knot was already here with Rong Hua, Rong Hua wanted to open his mouth to persuade him, but he couldn't say some things, and he couldn't help but feel sad.
Today, Rong Hua asked Jinxiu to pay special attention to whether there was Miss Ten in the house, and after a while, Mu Hibiscus came back and said, "The people around the old lady came to ask her, when she saw Miss Ten last night, what was Miss Ten like." ”
What kind of family is Tao Mansion, I feel that this matter can't be hidden from the outside, and I will definitely put the interests of the family first, and I won't put myself in Miss Ten's shoes.
Poor Miss Ten has never missed a step, but she has lost her life because of this flying disaster. Since then, everyone has changed their eyes when they look at her, and no one will feel sorry for her, let alone investigate the truth.
Today's double watch day.
Eight o'clock in the evening. (! )
