Sigh on a moonlit night, Hu will not return Chapter 12 Search for stolen goods
"Father, my daughter has had a dream these days." Ye Zhiwei said sadly, "On the way south, you and your mother were all killed, and I was the only ......one left."
Ye Huai'an was stunned, reached out and patted her shoulder, "Wei'er, don't be afraid, it's just a dream." ”
While comforting his daughter softly, his eyes gradually gathered a dignified brilliance.
After Ye Zhiwei left, he immediately called his henchmen and subordinates and ordered: "Send someone to keep an eye on the chief steward of the mansion to see where he has been in the past few days and whether he has contacted anyone from other mansions." ”
The subordinate was surprised: "Didn't the chief steward listen to your orders and prepare for you to go south?" ”
Ye Huai'an nodded, "It's better to be careful, don't let others know about this matter." ”
"Yes." The subordinate retreated.
Ye Zhiwei just returned to the courtyard, and Xiaolian hurriedly ran over, "Miss, Miss, Ziqing is awake!" ”
Ye Zhiwei beckoned to Mama Mi and whispered a few words in her ear, Mama Mi looked solemn, but after listening to Ye Zhiwei's words, a smile gradually appeared on her face.
"Miss, don't worry, leave this matter to the old slave, it must be right."
Mama Mi turned around and walked out of the yard, and Ye Zhiwei followed Xiaolian to the firewood room.
Ziqing was lying on the wooden bed, her face was bloodless, and when she saw Ye Zhiwei coming in, she cried weakly, "Miss...... Miss...... Slaves and maids are so miserable......"
Xiaolian said disdainfully: "Now I know that crying, you dare to hit the idea in the young lady's house, this is retribution!" ”
Ziqing lamented: "It's all the slave's fault...... See what's in the lady's house...... Just shallow eyelids......"
Xiaolian wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ye Zhiwei, "Xiaolian, you go outside and guard." ”
Xiaolian was stunned, but now Ziqing was lying here half a dead person, and she couldn't do anything to the young lady, so she obediently went out to guard.
Ye Zhiwei saw Xiaolian go out, and slowly walked to Ziqing's side, and her chubby little hand touched Ziqing's hair scattered on the sideburns.
"Your name is Ziqing, right?" She was crisp.
Ziqing stared at her.
"You're dying." Ye Zhiwei's face was expressionless, as if she was talking to her about today's weather or what snacks she had in the morning.
Ziqing didn't catch his breath, coughed, and suddenly felt a terrible pain in the back of his head.
"You're going to die soon." Ye Zhiwei repeated again, "Do you still want to keep it a secret for others?" ”
Ziqing stared at him in a daze.
"Don't you want to avenge yourself?" Ye Zhiwei came up to her and said word by word, "I heard Mama Mi say that the unjust ghost will not be able to live in peace when he goes to hell......
Ziqing shuddered.
She couldn't believe that the person in front of her was really only four years old.
The faint light shone in from the window of the firewood room, and Ye Zhiwei's eyes shone with a faint brilliance, so that people couldn't see the look in her eyes clearly.
Ziqing only felt that the child standing in front of her was like a ghost from the underworld, she looked at her fixedly, and said chilling words in a childish voice......
Is she going to die?
She only felt that her whole body was getting colder and colder, and at the end, it seemed that even the blood had stopped flowing.
On the second day, I don't know who spread the rumor that there was a thief in the yard of the grandfather and daughter-in-law Ye Zhiwei, who stole something, and was found trying to escape, but fell into the well in a panic and drowned.
The rumors spread widely, the courtyard of the uncle and the second master in the house were all believed, and many mothers-in-law could still describe Ziqing's stealing process vividly, as if they had seen it with their own eyes.
In the afternoon, the eldest aunt took her cousin Yaoqin to find the Min family.
"I heard that there was a maid stealing things in Zhiweier's yard?" The eldest aunt said politely when she entered the door.
The Min family also just heard about this, and before they could go to Ye Zhiwei's courtyard, Ye Huai'an's eldest brother's wife blocked the door.
"That's what I just heard about."
"No wonder I always lost things in my yard a while ago, someone saw Ziqing go there several times, just come with you, otherwise Zhiwei's girl will cry endlessly."
The Min family didn't want to go with her, but this was the Zhenguo Mansion, and she had to call the other party a sister-in-law, so she had to take someone to Ye Zhiwei's courtyard together.
"The eldest aunt wants to search for stolen goods?" Ye Zhiwei was not in a hurry when she heard the news, she sat there and munched on snacks, but she kept complaining about her current teeth.
It's all baby teeth, and it's not pleasant to eat anything, even biting.
Mi Mama said: "Uncle and Mrs. have already brought people and are waiting in the courtyard." ”
"What did Mother say?"
"Madame would like to hear what Mademoiselle has to say." Mama Mi said, unconsciously with a smile in her voice.
In the past, if this kind of thing happened, how could they still have the share of their young lady to speak, she would hide behind others and cry in the morning.
Ye Zhiwei swallowed the last piece of dim sum, drank half a glass of water, and then wiped her mouth and jumped off the kang.
"The eldest aunt wanted to check, so she asked her to check." She ran out of her calf.
Min was sitting outside with his uncle and wife, Ye Zhiwei came out and first saluted respectfully, and then sat honestly beside Min and did not move.
The uncle and wife looked at her in surprise, and wondered: "I haven't seen you for a few days, and this child is actually out of breath." ”
Ye Zhiwei didn't speak, but the villain in her heart rolled her eyes: Your sister, my sister is a human being in the third life.
Yaoqin on the side listened to it and said disdainfully: "Yes, it's out, the maids in the yard have all stolen into our yard." ”
Min's face sank, and he didn't attack Yaoqin, but said to the uncle and wife: "Sister-in-law, the matter hasn't been clarified yet, how can you talk nonsense with the child, it's good to say that this is going out." ”
Uncle and Mrs. smiled, "Having said that, if it weren't for Zhiwei, a girl who couldn't control the people in her yard, how could she do this, I said that she was too young to set up a yard alone, but the third brother just didn't listen, saying that he wanted to practice this child's courage, I don't think this courage has been practiced, and the thieves have come out a bunch." ”
Min's face became more and more ugly, and she turned her head to look at her daughter, for fear that she would scare her, but who knew that when she looked over, she found that Ye Zhiwei was playing with her handkerchief intently, as if she hadn't heard what they were saying at all.
Mama Mi stared at the subordinates brought by the uncle and wife in the courtyard, although Ye Zhiwei did not have any particularly valuable objects in this courtyard, there were still a lot of things that the grandfather and the town of Guogong had rewarded in the past.
She asked people to guard Ye Zhiwei's house, and the ones outside were casually inspected by them.
It didn't take much effort, and the subordinates brought by the uncle and wife finished checking the subordinates' houses, holding a bunch of bits and pieces that were found, and turned to the main house.
Mama Mi couldn't help but stare when she saw them looking into Ye Zhiwei's house, "What? You'd like to come in our lady's house too? ”
The subordinates bowed their heads one after another.
"Since it's all checked, it's not bad for this one." The leader of the investigation was the maid next to the uncle's wife, Zizhu.
Mama Mi sneered: "Why, don't you think that Ziqing's girl stole something and will hide it in our young lady's room?" ”
The implication is that you have framed our young lady for hiding stolen goods for the thief.
Zizhu was not afraid of Mama Mi, and said with a smile: "If you are not afraid, let us check it, wouldn't it be more suspicious to hide it like this?" ”
