The magpie hurriedly followed, and after a while, Bai Mujian changed into a coat, but suddenly found that the purse he was carrying was missing.

"Magpie, look for it, where did my purse go?" Bai Hibiscus calmed down a little and asked the magpie to help find it.

The magpie rummaged carefully through the pile of clothes that Bai Hibiscus had changed, but found nothing, so he said, "Miss, have you lost it in the back garden?" ”

Bai Hibiscus recalled it carefully, but he didn't have much of an impression, he must have accidentally dropped it while dodging. She quickly asked the magpie to take out a purse that was the same as the purse and put it on.

Fortunately, there was only some broken silver in the purse today, and there was nothing special, and even if someone picked it up, she could not admit it at all.

However, the Lu family will definitely not give up, she must make plans in advance.

After changing her clothes and seeing that she was okay, she went out with the magpie, and Bai Muchen was still waiting for her in the front yard. Bai Muhibiscus beckoned: "Chen'er, no matter what others ask later, you just say that since I came back to change clothes, I have never gone out in the yard, you know?" ”

Bai Muchen nodded and said, "Of course!" ”

Before she went out, she was blocked by the Lu family at the door of Jinlan Garden, and she was followed by Grandma Sun beside Old Madam Bai. It can be seen that Mrs. Bai already knew about this matter, and she was probably afraid of alarming the guests, so she sent Grandma Sun to deal with it.

Bai Mu Hibiscus pretended to be ignorant and asked, "Mother, what happened?" Why didn't you listen to the play in front? ”

Lu's Yin Yang smiled weirdly, and then said: "The family was robbed, and I couldn't find you just now, I'm afraid that something will happen to you, so come and take a look!" ”

Bai Mujian smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you mother for your concern, isn't it good for Jin'er?" Caught a thief, but can you catch a thief? ”

Lu Shi looked at Bai Hibiscus's expression carefully, as if he wanted to find traces of her lying, but he saw Bai Hibiscus with a calm face and no panic.

There was a slight doubt in her heart, did she really not know or pretended to be calm?

Lu took out the purse in his hand again and said, "Is this purse yours from Jin'er?" I remember you always wear this purse! ”

"Oh? This purse looks like my real thing, but Jin'er's purse is here, oh...... I remember, this purse should be made of mandarin ducks again! Bai Mu Hibiscus did not deny it, anyway, it was normal for the mandarin duck to faint in the garden, and the purse was stolen.

Lu squinted, and sure enough, she found that Bai Hibiscus was still wearing an identical purse, but she refused to give up, and only said: "There are dead people in our house, and there is this purse next to the corpse, should Jin'er explain?" ”

"What? Dead? Who died? Bai Hibiscus's face turned white and asked in a panic.

Only then did Mama Sun speak: "It's Boss Yuan of the drama troupe, he is the pillar of the Double Happiness Troupe, the famous Danjiao, somehow he was killed, and the body was found in the rockery cave in the back garden!" ”

Bai Mu Hibiscus gasped, stroked his heart, and said as if in shock: "Really? It's scary, who killed it? Could it be the thief? ”

Mama Sun shook her head and said, "I don't know who the murderer is, and I don't dare to speak out now, for fear that the guests will be frightened, so the old lady only sent a slave to assist the lady in handling this matter!" ”

Bai Muhibiscus lowered his head, sighed, and said: "It seems that the murderer must have taken advantage of the happy event in the mansion, and there were many people in the chaos, so he mixed into the mansion, I heard that the mandarin duck was also knocked unconscious in the back garden, is there anything wrong with her?" ”

Lu Shi sneered, and then said, "I heard that the mandarin duck came back with you to change clothes, why did you come back and she fainted in the garden?" ”

"Oh...... Because the mandarin duck said that something was lost, so I asked her to go back to find it, I was a little dizzy and came back to rest, but I didn't expect Chen'er to come, and our sister and brother talked for a while! Bai Mu Hibiscus explained unhurriedly.

Lu Shi looked at her with meaningful eyes, and said: "But Jiaojiao didn't say that, she said that she saw you entangled with a man in the back garden, and then she was knocked unconscious, and you disappeared!" ”

Bai Mu Hibiscus frowned slightly, looked at Lu Shi and said, "Mother, is that really what Cousin Jiaojiao said?" Did she have her brain broken and wronged me indiscriminately? I've never seen her in the backyard again! ”

Lu wanted to say something, but Mama Sun preemptively said: "This matter still needs to be verified, but now that there is a drama in the house, if you don't suppress it, I'm afraid it will be another trouble, and the old lady is the most taboo matter, and this matter must not be allowed to spread!" ”

"Hey...... It's really unlucky, someone died in the house on the day of the big day, and I don't know what Sister Mu will think! Lu pretended to sigh melancholy, but her heart blossomed, she wished that things would make as much trouble as possible, first of all, Mu Xinping's ominousness, and then involving Bai Hibiscus, that was a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

It's just that she also knows that she has to take care of the Bai family's face, so she can only make plans after the guests leave, and her own affairs are naturally handled behind closed doors and not let others see the jokes, but afterwards, she doesn't mind spreading a little rumor to others.

"Grandma Sun, this matter is very important, and I can't make the decision, so I'd better wait for the old lady to deal with it, hey...... Since this purse appeared next to the corpse, it may be evidence! Lu shook the purse in his hand and looked at Bai Hibiscus with an unkind look.

Bai Mu Hibiscus just didn't see it, and said to Grandma Sun: "Grandma Sun, you have to help Grandmother check carefully." But in the ninth-rate industry of the drama troupe, what messy things are not there? It can't be said that it was their infighting that led to the murder, and they still have to rely on our house, so they may be able to extort a sum of money! ”

As soon as she said this, Grandma Sun couldn't help but nod her head and said, "Well, it's indeed possible, but now there is no evidence, and the old lady also means to try to clear up the relationship between our house, so as not to leave someone to talk about it when the time comes!" ”

Bai Mujin also nodded, as long as Old Madam Bai didn't want to get involved in the matter, even if the Lu family wanted to make trouble again, it wouldn't be able to make trouble, after all, it was about the face of the Ningguo Mansion, and Old Madam Bai wouldn't care who was the murderer, she would only care about whether it would damage the interests of the Bai family.

What she said just now was also to give Mama Sun an idea, as long as the matter was pushed into the troupe, it would have nothing to do with their Ningguo Mansion, if Lu Jiaojiao dared to talk nonsense, she didn't mind beating her.

"Mother, where is the mandarin duck now, I want to go and see her!" Bai Mu Hibiscus asked.

Lu said: "She is resting in the lower room now, and quietly invited the doctor to come and see, saying that it is not a big deal, let her rest, what are you going to do to see her?" ”

If you want to make a confession, it's not so easy, you must not let Bai Mujin meet with the mandarin duck before the old lady comes forward, otherwise how will she sing the next scene.

Seeing this, Bai Mujin was not reluctant, but said: "Since the mandarin duck is fine, then I can rest assured, what about my cousin, okay?" ”

"She's frightened, she's resting in my yard, it's fine!" Lu replied, in short, not to give Bai Mujin any chance to get close to her two most important witnesses.

"Since that's the case, then I won't bother her, there are still a bunch of young ladies waiting for me to greet in the plum garden, so I won't talk to my mother!" Hibiscus didn't seem to care about it at all.

Lu Shi was made by her indifferent attitude, and now she doesn't understand Bai Hibiscus's mind more and more, since when did this girl become so tricky and difficult?

Bai Mujin didn't care what she meant, so she was about to leave with the magpie, and also beckoned Bai Muchen to go to the front yard to entertain the male guests. Bai Muchen naturally cooperated and followed out of Jinlan Garden.

As soon as he avoided Lu's eyes, Bai Mujian quietly commanded the magpie a few words, and then went to the plum garden quietly. As soon as they arrived at the plum garden, the magpie left under the pretext of an excuse.

Bai Hibiscus continued to communicate with the ladies, appreciating plum blossoms and tasting wine, talking and laughing, as if he had completely forgotten what had just happened.

Only Lu Feiyuan quietly came over and asked, "Lu Jiaojiao has been gone for a long time, where did she go?" ”

"Don't ask, cousin, when the guests leave, you'll naturally know, there must be a good show tonight!" Hibiscus Bai smiled mysteriously.

When the lively banquet also ended, today's harvest of Bai Hibiscus is to officially have a friendly start with the ladies of all families, under her warm hospitality, it can be said that the guests and hosts are happy, before leaving, a few young ladies are still a little reluctant to make an appointment with Bai Hibiscus to meet again next time.

Lu Feiyuan looked at Bai Hibiscus expectantly, as if she was waiting for her so-called good show to play.

As soon as the guests dispersed, Mrs. Lu, who had planned to leave, was retained by Mrs. Bai, saying that she had something to do.

Hu Shi didn't see Lu Jiaojiao until now, so he asked, "Fei'er, where did Jiaojiao go?" Didn't you go to the plum garden together to enjoy the plum blossoms? ”

Lu Feiyuan spread her hands and said that she didn't know anything: "Jiaojiao said it was boring after playing for a while, and then left by herself, and no one else was allowed to follow, I thought that since I was at my uncle's house, I would let her go!" ”

When Hu Shi heard this, he said with a reproachful face: "How did you act as a sister, you don't take care of your sister, just!" ”

Lu Feiyuan looked aggrieved, the Qin family was not happy, and said with a thorn in his words: "You don't know your own daughter's temperament yet, she has always been like this, who can control it?" Fei'er is just a cousin, and she doesn't have the qualifications to manage people! ”

The Hu family blushed, but he didn't dare to argue with the Qin family, after all, in the Lu family, the status of the daughter-in-law of the long house was higher than her, and in front of the old lady Lu, she naturally didn't dare to make a mistake.

Old Madam Lu had no choice but to stay, because she was a little unhappy when she looked at Old Madam Bai's face, knowing that something must have happened to the Bai family, and it was related to Lu Jiaojiao.

After the guests were finished, Mrs. Bai invited Mrs. Lu to the flower hall, and Bai Shizu naturally went to the cave room without knowing anything, but this matter had to be resolved.

The head of the double happiness team took all the people who came to Ningguo Mansion today to kneel outside the hall, waiting for questioning, and the class owner also felt very aggrieved, and came to sing a church meeting, and actually sang the pillar to death, isn't this a heavy loss? That Yuan Chengyi is his cash cow!

Old Madam Bai probably described the matter, and when she heard it, Old Madam Lu frowned, and at this time, Lu Jiaojiao and Mandarin Duck were also taken to the flower hall, and both Mandarin Duck and Lu Jiaojiao were wrapped in white cloth, obviously injured.
