Before the arrival of the sub-element.

Here in the house.

The county lord sat at the table, and Baozhu took the soup from the handmaiden and put it on the table. She saw that the county lord looked sad and a little distressed, so she said a word or two of persuasion.

Between the words, Yuping came back from outside and reported to the county lord that the third master was stumped by official business, and he would come back later tonight, so let the county lord eat first and rest early.

The county lord sighed, confessed, and said to Baozhu: "Then eat it, it's cold, but it's not cold." ”

was about to raise the chopsticks, when he suddenly heard the voice of the pearl outside: "I can't let you in, this time, my wife is eating, I am resting, you have something to do, wait for tomorrow to come again!" ”

Hearing this, the county lord snapped, put down his chopsticks, and was very angry.

Baozhu was worried, glanced at Yuping, and motioned for her to take a look.

Yuping went out.

Immediately after, the sound of crackling footsteps and the sound of tugging were heard.

After a while, Zisuti came in with a deflated and extinguished lantern. The county lord was frightened by her posture, and couldn't help but scold: "What are you going to do?" ”

Zisu threw the rotten lantern to the ground, and with a snap, the lantern, which was originally unusual, spread to the ground. Her eyebrows were upturned, and she was visibly angry. No wonder she was angry. As soon as she entered this courtyard, a little girl came to stop her, and Jiangzhu also came out to stop her, anyway, she was not allowed to come in and disturb the county lord. Therefore, after a quarrel with Jiang Zhu and the others outside, she had to come in to see the county lord!

Now, Yuping and Jiangzhu and other girls are following up in a swarm, and they are all scared.

Jiangzhu said to the county lord: "Mrs. ......"

Jiangzhu wanted to explain why she didn't stop it, but the county lord raised her hand and asked her to stop talking.

Zisu gave a fake gift, not sincerely, after the ceremony, he said: "I broke in without permission, my wife wants to punish me, I have nothing to say." I came here, not for anything else, but I want to ask if our girl is still in Xifu? The old lady brought the meal to the mirror and thanked her, and I wanted to invite the girl back to eat. ”

When the county lord saw her say this, his frightened expression slowly subsided.

The county lord slowly picked up the chopsticks, didn't take care of the vegetarian at first, took care of the vegetables and put them in his bowl, and then took some vegetable leaves from the bowl and put them into his mouth, chewed and swallowed slowly, as if he had eaten delicious food, very happy; She had just been angry, and her face was frightened, and now, it was like a different face.

Zisu said again: "Please let our girl go." ”

The county lord's eyes drooped slightly, staring at the dishes and chopsticks, and when she heard Zisu's words, she slowly raised her eyebrows and said calmly: "Your girl is eating in Xifu." Did you come to scare me by burning a fire? ”

Zisu said: "I won't talk around the corner." Madam, on the night of the fifth girl's birthday, everything should not implicate our girl. If there is a punishment, I will also count as one. In terms of fairness and justice, the second girl from Beifu also went, why did Mrs. punish our girl alone? ”

The county lord suppressed his temperament and smiled hypocritically: "Who said to punish you girls?" ”

Zisu said: "Mrs. asked her to bring the girl to Xifu, but she didn't let her go back." What is not a penalty? ”

The county lord ate a few more bites of food, and after swallowing his stomach, he said lightly: "Here, you are the master?" Or am I the master? ”

The words are light, but they are a little sharp.

Zisu blushed.

The county lord said: "I remember that you are loyal to your girl, and I don't care about you!" I am your girl's mother-in-law, and I don't need to tell you when I want her to come back to live. Do you hear me? ”

Zisu's face was as red as the red paper lantern outside. When he came, the stomach full of grievances, as well as all kinds of words to ask Yu Qi, were swept away by the county lord at this moment. Seeing that she couldn't say anything, she simply knelt down and said, "Then please Mrs. also take me over, I want to serve the girl and follow the girl." ”

The county lord said: "We have no one to serve in Xifu?" Originally, you were supposed to serve her, but when I saw you like this, I thought, how can you serve her well? The Buddha light above your head has overshadowed your girl, and even we have overshadowed it. If you come to Xifu, won't this Xifu become your Huaguo Mountain? ”

The county lord's words were very mean, and Zisu knew that she laughed at her and blamed her.

Now, the only thing Zisu can do is to ask the county lord to keep her, so that she can follow Yu Qi. However, the county lord refused.

The county lord also said: "It's right for your girl to come to Xifu, I let her stay." The rest do not have to come with them, for we have good ones in our house to serve her. Thank you, thank you! Take care of Jinghuaxie, in the end, you girls still have to live. Isn't there still a bird in Jinghua Xie? You're all gone, who cares if the bird lives or dies? That's what your third master gave to your girl. If I were you, go back quickly, and serve your girl's gift, as well as your girl's gift. I heard that Sanxi is still sick, you are gone, who will take care of her? ”

Sanxi is sick? Here, Yu Qi didn't dare to say to the outside world that the Cao family had kidnapped Sanxi, so he deliberately lied to the people in Shouzhongju and said that Sanxi was sick. At this moment, the county lord inquired from nowhere, and said that Sanxi was sick and still stayed in Jinghuaxie.

Because of the mention of Sanxi, Zisu suddenly remembered what Yu Qi told when he left, and Yu Qi asked her to wait quietly, afraid that if Sanxi came back, she would not find anyone.

After the county lord's words were finished, Zisu said, "Mrs. Xie cares." In that case, please ask my wife to let me see our girl. I have a few words I want to say to her. ”

The county lord said: "What is the whisper? ”

Zisu said: "No. ”

The county lord said: "Then you tell me, and I will convey it to you." ”

Zisu choked words.

The county lord saw that Zisu was speechless for a while, and smiled.

Then the lord said to the jewel, "Go and get her a new lantern, it must be big, it must be bright, and it must be strong." ”

The orb went, and after a while, a lantern was brought.

Zisu didn't answer, turned around angrily, and went out.

The county lord ignored her, and said to Yuping: "You send the lantern!" Don't let her fall in our house in the dark. ”

Yuping took the lantern of the orb and followed behind Zi Su, half-pushing and half-begging for Zisu to take it. Zisu didn't pay attention to it at all, and strode towards the gate of Xifu.

Outside the gate, Yuping changed the look of the begging person just now, and said in a hard language: "I said Sister Zisu, everyone is doing things from below. Whatever you do, don't bother me. The second time you rush again, please tell me beforehand. I'm going to find a place to hide first. Because of you, I have suffered my wife's punishment. ”

Zisu snorted, still like that, went down the steps, went to the path, the black road under her feet, she didn't care, at this moment, her courage is stronger than that of a cow, whether she can see it under her feet or not, it's a big deal to fall to death, so she doesn't have to live here.

Seeing Zisu disappear from the night, Yuping entered the door. After entering the door, he turned his foot to the ear room, scolded the mother-in-law who was guarding the door, and after scolding, he told the mother-in-law: "Anyone who sees Jinghua Xie tomorrow is not allowed to come in!" ”

After finishing speaking, he went back to the county lord to reply. I didn't go far when I heard a few people talking under the porch.

Yuping has been wronged for the past two days, and she is worried that she has nothing to vent, and now she sees those subordinates so idle, so she catches the conversation and reprimands people. Before Yuping finished scolding, one of the subordinates came over and said, "Miss Ping, there is a thief in our house." We wondered if we should tell Miss Baozhu so that our wife could be informed. ”

Hearing that there was a thief in the house, Yuping was shocked.

Those subordinates gossiped and said to Yuping: "That little thief is very powerful, he doesn't steal gold, silver and jewelry, he knows that it is time for dinner in our house, and he came to steal the pig's trotters, and even the fish prepared by his wife for the lord was also stolen, you said that this thief is fat enough." We chased him around, but he ran away. Girl, you can help us bring a message to Miss Baozhu, so that we can say a few kind words, and don't let my wife blame us heavily. A few of us are talking about this, and that's what we're worried about. ”

Yuping thought to herself: Most of them are those little girls with unclean hands and feet, but didn't they see that the house has been chaotic for the past two days, and they have a chance to do it? She didn't ask any more questions, when she had obtained a business, she hurried back and reported it to the county lord.

Back in front of the county lord, Yuping reported to her, saying that Zisu went back in the dark, and she didn't ask for the lantern. He also told me that there had been a thief in the house.

When the county lord heard that there was a thief in the house, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at the table, and said, "I said, why didn't you catch the fish." It turned out that the fish were gone. It's good that the master didn't come back, otherwise, let's see what to charge up! ”

Baozhu was full of sorrow, and said to the county lord: "Madam, then I will go out and talk to them, let them not be lazy, so that they can increase their manpower." ”

The county lord waved his hand and said, "No need! ”

Baozhu and the other girls were afraid that the county lord would blame, so they hurriedly went out to arrange manpower. Unexpectedly, the county lord didn't take it seriously. Several people breathed a sigh of relief.

The county lord stared at the food on the table, stunned for a long time, and then said casually: "The two people in the Phoenix Pavilion are still kneeling now?" ”

Baozhu immediately replied: "Our third master and fifth girl all listen to our wife's words. If I didn't have a wife, I guess I would still be kneeling there. ”

The county lord said, "Then let them kneel." No one is allowed to bring tea or food. If I let me know that someone is trying to please you for food, I will not spare you! ”

Everyone stood with their heads bowed and their hands down, as if they had listened to the instruction.

The county lord sat for a while, sighed a few times, didn't eat, and asked the girl to bring water to rinse her mouth and wash her hands, which was considered to have eaten. Finished, the county lord returned to the house.

Waiting for the county lord to rest, Baozhu beckoned the jade screen and the pearl out.

Baozhu complained to Yuping and said, "You are really confused! Such things can also be heard by those who do not know how to go. Isn't it a thief to say this to his wife on this big night to scare her? Fortunately, my wife did not blame. ”

Yuping said aggrievedly: "I heard that there was a thief, I was afraid, I came back silently, I haven't heard it, if something big happens, I have to blame." ”

Baozhu said: "Then it's not too late for you to give me a word and then report it to my wife." ”

Yuping said: "As soon as I heard that there was a thief, my heart jumped to the top of my head, and I was afraid that something would really happen, so I told my wife." ”

Baozhu said: "Is there anything going on here?" Mrs. didn't take it seriously at all, you know? ”

Baozhu looked at the beads and the jade screen.

The two shook their heads in response.

Baozhu smiled, shook his head, twisted Yuping's arm, and said, "You go and call the people who are chasing the thief." ”

Yuping was puzzled, but he also went. After half a while, Yuping and the few people who were chasing the thieves came to see the jewel. When he saw them, Baozhu did not speak, but glared at them with a threatening face.

The subordinates piled up with embarrassed expressions and flattered Xiang Baozhu: "Baozhu girl, just the corundum jade girl said that the wife did not pursue it." But we wonder, do we have to find out? Stealing food today, stealing gold, silver and jewelry tomorrow. ”

Baozhu said: "You also know this truth? A room full of people who only know gossip and eat wine all day long, let you work here, you should support your ancestors. Some time ago, I also said that the beams on the five girls' side should be replaced, and the moths were mothed, and they said that if they don't change it, they will collapse and smash people, who will change it? The tea house said that they wanted to plant some flowers, called the name of the flower, and so on today, they sent a booklet, those flowers, the first three years of people did not raise, you also got to ask us to choose. It can be seen that your heart is not in our house when you do things. That's why I didn't do this, I didn't do that, and I couldn't keep the kitchen, and I couldn't even keep the dishes that the master ate! ”

Seeing that the jewel was angry, everyone did not dare to say anything.

Baozhu said: "I will use this file to remind you that you should be more attentive about what to do and how to do it in the future." Also, let me ask you, where did the thief go? How many thieves are there? ”
