Zhongfu. Shou Zhong Ju.

The housekeeper came to report urgently, and the old lady was being greeted by the Qin family, the county lord, Aunt Xi, Aunt Xi, Aunt Xiao, Aunt Xiao, Zhuang Yu, Zhuang Hu, Zhuang Yu, Yu Li, Zhuang Jue and other rooms and girls.

The butler came in and said, "Old lady, it's not good. ”

Qin said: "What happened in a panic? ”

The housekeeper said: "The gift of entering the palace is missing a handful of Western Regions green jade Xiaoruyi." ”

Hearing this, the crowd whispered to each other.

The old lady said angrily: "Bastard things, there are things missing here, could it be that there are things here that you are missing?" ”

The housekeeper snorted: "The second master and the wife said that they could replace it with something else." ”

The old lady said in a big voice: "Tell him, change the other person's head." He didn't know that before the annual tribute, he drew up a list to enter. The goods are not right, don't you want to lift your head in? ”

The Qin clan and the county lord showed a look of horror, and the others exchanged heads and talked constantly.

The butler wiped his sweat and responded in horror, "Yes." ”

When he was about to leave, the old lady stopped him again: "Come back." ”

The butler returned.

The old lady said, "How is it that the thing is gone?" ”

The housekeeper replied: "Now that the second wife is on trial, she temporarily changed her head last night, and she will give the matter." ”

After listening, the old lady raised her hand and asked the housekeeper to go out.

The housekeeper goes out.

For the rest, Qin's worried look was on his face, and he couldn't say anything. Not to mention the county lord, she knows that the royal gift is related to the level of loyalty, and this matter is not trivial.

Zhuang Jue said: "If you really don't see it, the old lady will give the queen mother in the palace a verbal request, and she won't care." ”

The old lady sighed and said, "Son, that's a bully. How? You uncles and aunts, all of them are useless, shrewd on the outside, and confused on the inside. ”

The Qin family and the county lord were afraid that the old lady would fall ill urgently, so they were relieved again and again. The girls are also kind of persuasive.

At the end, the old lady said: "The eldest lady and the third wife, I see that you go over and take a look, these two ladies will not give up if they don't torture people half to death." When a person dies, can something be recovered? ”

In this way, the Qin family went over with the county lord, and the girl wanted to see the novelty even more, so she pulled and pulled and followed. Yu Qi didn't want to get involved, so she didn't move, Zhuang Jue came over to pull her, lingered for a while, and followed out.

When they arrived in Beifu, everyone was still outside, and they heard the sound of Cao's beating and scolding.

When I went in again, I saw Zhuang Lu sitting in the hall, and Cao Shi whipped the caiqin lying on the ground with a whip.

Caiqin was silent.

Cao Shi was furious and said, "Say! Did you steal it? ”

Caiqin still didn't say anything.

Cao Shi kicked hard, threw the whip to Guiyuan, and said, "You cheap hoof, don't move, give me a beating." ”

After that, several mothers-in-law took needles and pricked Caiqin's body indiscriminately, and Caiqin rolled on the ground in pain.

Zhuang Xuan and Zhuang Ying sisters stood aside, half-covering their eyes and not daring to look.

Suddenly—

Qin's voice said, "Stop." ”

A few hands-on mothers-in-law stopped and rested.

Qin came in and said, "Can you ask questions with such torture?" ”

Cao's face was not half bright, because she was not careful, and now she had to bow down. Then he ordered the girl to carry a stool and read the tea. Zhuang Lu squinted, playing with the jade bracelet in his hand, without a word.

Cao said to Qin: "Madam." ”

Qin glanced at the hall and said, "The old lady asked me to come over and take a look." ”

Zhuang Lu got up and wanted to speak, but Cao Shi preemptively said: "What happened to me here, I'll take care of it." ”

Zhuang Hu said: "If the second wife continues to take care of it, our house will lose our heads." ”

Cao Shi hated and said, "What did the girl say this? Dare to be a cheap hoof, so that the heads of the people in the house can't move. ”

Saying that, he glanced at Zhuang Lu, Zhuang Lu couldn't sit still anymore, and threw his sleeves out.

Zhuang Hu said: "These gifts have been prepared before the tribute to enter the palace, this time the things are not complete, I am afraid that people will not accept them, isn't it a big crime to bully the king." ”

Cao Shi was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said, "This ...... This...... You're lying to me, aren't you? ”

The county lord said: "The old lady said it." ”

After listening to this, Cao Shi sat down. I don't have the heart to torture Caiqin. Tears flowed outward.

Seeing that the Cao family was useless, the Qin family said to Caiqin on the ground: "Girl, you are honest, but you hid the things?" ”

Caiqin lay on the ground, gritted her teeth and said, "I didn't take it!" ”

Cao Shi got up from the chair, kicked on Caiqin's waist, and said, "Slut and bitch, you hate me for poisoning me to do this." It's not you who takes it, who takes it! You think I don't know, I didn't come in like this, I didn't collect money to provoke the second master, why did you come. ”

Caiqin gasped, tears welling up.

This is an insult worse than death.

The mother-in-law who kept vigil with Caiqin stepped forward and knelt down and said, "Madam, I kept vigil with her last night, and I fell asleep in the middle of the night, I ......"

Qin said coldly: "I'll kiss you later." ”

The mother-in-law kowtows like pounding onions.

The county lord said: "From morning to now, have people ever left here?" ”

The housekeeper said, "I've been here all along, and I haven't left half a step." ”

The county lord said: "Have you searched the house carefully?" ”

The housekeeper said: "I searched it, and there were a few cracks in the ground, but I really didn't see it!" ”

Cao Shi hated: "It's this slut who took it!" Beat her to death to know how powerful it is. He tore off the whip from Guiyuan's hand again, and regardless of the obstruction of others, he hit Caiqin fiercely.

At this moment, Yu Qi, Zhuang Jue, Sanxi, Huiyuan, and Xianglian arrived.

Yu Qi shouted: "Stop fighting!" Stop it! ”

Everyone turned around and saw five people, and Yu Qi was holding a piece of green jade Ruyi in his hand. The housekeeper recognized it, and took it from Yu Qi's hands with a happy heart. Thank you very much.

The housekeeper said, "It's this, it's this!" Madame, I found it. ”

Hearing that the lost item was found, Cao Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and the leather whip in his hand fell to the ground.

Qin asked Yu Qi: "Why are the things in your hands?" ”

Yu Qi looked back at Xianglian.

Xianglian knelt on the ground and replied, "The eldest wife, the second wife, and the third wife were taken by the second master in our house." I found out when I changed his clothes today. I happened to see Miss Qi and the third master saying that they had lost Yu Ruyi who had entered the palace here, and wondered if it was this thing. I haven't seen the second master on weekdays. ”

The county lord hurriedly said: "What about the second master? ”

Xianglian said: "We asked the second master, and the second master said yes...... He said he had been here yesterday and took it to play. I didn't want to take it! also said that the third master bumped into him. ”

The county lord spat at Zhuang Yu's face: "Bastard thing!" ”

Zhuang Jue said: "Mrs. is angry, the things have been recovered, so I can rest assured." How did I know that my second brother had taken something away, and I was surprised to see him come out of here happily the first day. ”

Everyone asked Xianglian to get up, and Yu Qi was grateful and took her hand. At this moment, Yu Qi knew that giving people delicate flowers, leaving fragrance in his hands, the beauty of adults, and the good retribution of cause and effect. It wasn't that day that he persuaded the county lord not to take Xianglian away, and there was no good end to this matter at this moment. It's a big fuss, and I'm afraid that the major mansions will be crowned with the crime of bullying the king, and I will be affected by it. It's a blessing to think about.

I saw Qin Shi say: "Okay, carry the girl on the ground back to the old lady." ”

The county lord was afraid of affecting Zhuang Pu, so he pleaded: "Mrs., Mrs. ......"

Cao's was even more reluctant to make trouble with the old lady, so that the old lady said that she had the means.

The Qin clan knows this way.

The county lord shook off Zhuang Yu and followed the Qin family. In an instant, everyone went out from Beifu in a mighty way, and when they arrived in the lobby of Beifu, they immediately fell silent. When Zhuang Lu came back, the building was empty, and there was only a pile of tribute gifts, and no one counted them.

Everyone went to live in Zhongfu Shouzhong.

The Qin family ordered the mother-in-law to put the half-tortured Caiqin on the ground. Caiqin was lying on her stomach.

The old lady was puzzled, and when she saw everyone gossiping, she was disgusted.

The old lady asked, "What is this for?" ”

Qin said: "Old lady, the things have been recovered, see what to do with this girl." ”

The old lady said, "But the girl's hands and feet are not clean?" It's over when you send it out, what are you doing here? ”

The county lord said: "This ceremony for entering the palace, the one who didn't see was Pu'er's naughty, and he took it to play." to get it back. ”

The county lord was afraid that he would be left behind others and let the old lady blame him, so he reported his sins. The old lady was stunned.

The Cao family glanced at the county lord, and was very resentful in his heart. This party is silent.

The old lady said, "Pity this girl as a scapegoat!" Girl, look up. ”

Caiqin raised her head tremblingly.

The old lady looked at it carefully, and said distressedly: "Ouch, oops." ”

This sigh is somewhat of a reproach to the Cao family for being too heavy and too vicious. In the end, the old lady asked Zhu'er to get the medicine, and then asked someone to help Caiqin to her. The old lady gently brushed off Caiqin's messy hair and looked at it, and then looked at her bloodstained clothes.

The old lady said, "Sin, sin." ”

Some of the girls covered their mouths, some whispered, and some covered their eyes, each with their own hearts, and this situation seemed real.

It hurts in the body of others, and it hurts in the eyes of individuals. After all, they are not the ones who suffer.

Yu Qi saw Caiqin's face on the side and felt a little familiar. I couldn't help but turn around and take a closer look. Sanxi also saw something strange and looked after her girl.

I heard the old lady say, "What's it called?" ”

Caiqin replied hoarsely: "Caiqin." ”

The old lady asked again, "How old are you?" ”

Caiqin replied: "Eighteen." ”

Those voices, those faces, those looks, those stubborn eyes are not her, who else? Yu Qi was very surprised when she saw Caiqin's face clearly, and her tears fell uncontrollably. Sanxi's hand clasped her tightly and told her that yes, it was her. It's her!

The old lady said angrily: "Second wife, what do you think of it?" ”

Cao said: "The old lady is merciful, give a few more taels of silver to buy medicine, and let it be sent out." I don't think she likes to stay in our house either......"

Hearing these words, Caiqin went limp, threw herself on the ground, and cried loudly. Everyone wanted to have comfort, but they were afraid of inconsistent identities and the ridicule of their subordinates, but they were not moved.

Caiqin cried desolate for a while, and slowly got up, Zhuang Hu was afraid that she would not be able to find a good way to deal with the wives, so she stood in front of the Qin family and the others early.

I saw Caiqin glaring at everyone with hatred and gritting her teeth.

The girls all signaled to take a few steps back, and suddenly, they saw that Caiqin's skirt was wet. After a night of forbearance, she actually wet her culottes.

can know that she has been wronged, and she can finally vent this turbidity.

Seeing this, the girls covered their mouths and laughed, whispering, and the mothers-in-law laughed even more. The old lady didn't wait to laugh, and in a blink of an eye, she saw Caiqin rushing towards the pillars of the top beam, trying to kill herself.

Fortunately, Yu Qi's eyes were quick and rushed to the pillar.

Caiqin slammed her head into Yu Qi's chest hard.

The two fell to the ground at the same time. Yu Qi clutched his chest in pain, coughing for a long time and couldn't make a sound. Everyone was shocked beyond recognition. Sanxi and Huiyuan desperately went to help Yu Qi.

Seeing that she was not dead, Caiqin slapped the ground and cried.

Regardless of the pain in his chest or the pull of Huiyuan, he asked Sanyi Sheng to hold down Caiqin, walked to the center of the lobby by himself, knelt down and begged: "The old lady said a few days ago that she wanted to add a girl to me, and I see that this girl is destined for me." Ask the old lady to point it out to me. ”

The old lady glanced at Caiqin, her heart palpitated, and she was unwilling: "You ...... I can point out the bamboo to you, why should you be ......"

Yu Li argued with reason and said: "The old lady is merciful, the book says that those who have jade are lucky, those who hold jade are good fate, and those who meet jade are love." Today I met Yu Ruyi and saved her, which is a kind of affection, and I begged the old lady to be accurate. ”

After Yu Qi finished kowtowing, he sincerely wanted to accept the girl.

The old lady snorted to the Cao family and said to Yu Qi: "Then I will thank you for the second wife, helping her take care of such a burden." ”

Cao Shi had nothing to say, and reluctantly thanked: "Old lady Xie." ”

Yu Qi also couldn't thank enough: "Thank you, old lady." Mrs. Xie. ”

So the people said again and again, either apologizing, or apologizing, or whatever. Yu Qi didn't listen. looked at Caiqin closely, and didn't forget to let the three likes hold her. Because, this person is the most important person to Yu Qi.
