Chapter 4 Let's go to the hut together
In the hall of the Crane Hall, there are eight red-lacquered pillars, all of which are stuffed with silver.
Ling Chu asked the Jinyi guard to cut open each pillar and take out all the silver inside.
Ling Shangshu looked at the boxes of silver that had been carried out, his face full of disbelief.
He was confident that the silver was hidden so hidden that no one could find it.
But how did this granddaughter, who only returned home yesterday, do so?
Could it be that the hexagram technique she learned in Xuanqing Guan is really so powerful?
Ling Shangshu was uneasy and anxious in his heart, worried that if he continued like this, if all the silver was found, even if the emperor didn't behead them this time, and that person knew that the silver was gone, he would definitely not let him go.
He wanted to stop Ling Chu, but under the noses of Commander Ning and Gonggong Cao, he didn't dare to make any moves.
I can only comfort myself while being anxious, the reason why the silver in the pillar was found was only by chance.
The rest of the silver could never be found, after all, he was so hidden that no one knew about it but himself.
The rest of the Shangshu Mansion stared at each other in surprise.
No one could have imagined that there was such a large sum of silver hidden in the pillars of the mansion, and they came to the main hall every day to greet Mrs. Tai, but no one even found out.
Especially the second lady, thinking that so much silver had to be handed over to the treasury, she only felt like cutting her own flesh.
It's all the big girl's disaster star, as soon as she returns home, Jinyiwei will come to the door to raid the house. Her dowry and the private money she had saved for many years were all searched, and this is not counting, and now she is about to lose this large amount of money.
The second lady glared at Ling Chu viciously, eager to pounce on her and strangle her to death.
Ling Chu didn't know that the second lady was already eager to get rid of her, but even if she knew, she wouldn't care.
She's not dough, and she can be rounded and kneaded by others.
After counting, less than a third of the silver was found.
Gonggong Cao urged Ling Chu to quickly find out the remaining silver.
When those brocade guards saw that she could really use hexagram techniques to find silver, their attitude towards her was much better.
However, then, Ling Chu took them to search in the mansion for half an hour, but they didn't find half a tael of silver.
Ling Shangshu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Gonggong Cao followed and searched for a long time, seeing that he was disappointed again and again, his attitude towards Ling Chu was no longer as gentle as before, and he frowned, "Miss Ling, I heard that you have been in Xuanqingguan for many years, how did you learn this hexagram so poorly?" ”
The original owner has been in Xuanqingguan for many years, and his hexagram skills are exquisite, but Ling Chu's search for silver does not rely on hexagrams.
She quietly glanced at the red dots scanned in the system, and then pretended to be nervous and said, "Grandpa Cao, I'll do another hexagram." ”
As if worried that Gonggong Cao would be angry, Ling Chu quickly took out the copper coin.
He took a deep breath, put his hands together with a serious expression, said something in his mouth, and then solemnly threw the copper plate.
None of the people present understood hexagrams.
I saw Ling Chu throw the copper plate six times in a row, and then he pointed to the southwest corner with a surprised face, "According to the hexagram, it's over there." ”
Father-in-law Cao looked at her fingers, but he didn't see anything famous, so he had to say suspiciously, "Then don't hurry up and lead the way." ”
Gonggong Cao didn't see it, but Ling Shangshu's face changed.
He glanced vaguely at Mrs. Tai, who was standing beside him.
Mrs. Tai's heart tightened, and she turned her head and glared at the eldest lady fiercely.
Although the eldest lady didn't know why her mother-in-law was glaring at her, she thought of the silver she had found earlier, and she suddenly felt a sigh in her heart.
Immediately turned his head and shouted at Ling Chu with a fierce gaze, "Ling Chu, have you made enough trouble?" The silver found earlier was only earned by the property in the house, and your grandfather was not greedy for ink at all, so where is the silver! If you continue to mess around and annoy adults, can you afford it? ”
Although the second lady didn't know if there was any other silver hidden in the house, she was worried about what if there was. So he also said in a weird manner, "That's it, Ling girl, even if you are dissatisfied with the mansion for letting you live in Xuanqingguan for so many years before you can be brought back, you can't be so ignorant, take the opportunity to come to the mansion."
If you don't know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, don't show off your hexagrams, you don't have to make people laugh off their big teeth. Where is there any silver on the southwest corner, there is only a latrine. ”
The third lady glanced at her in-laws next to her, and then persuaded softly, "Ling Chu, your grandfather has been an official for many years, and he has always been honest and honest, and everyone in the house knows that your grandfather will never be greedy for half a tael of silver, it is just someone else who framed him." ”
The second girl and the third girl also said, "Eldest sister, you are not familiar with the house, you may not know that there is really only a thatched house in the southwest corner." ”
Hearing these words, Gonggong Cao and those brocade guards looked disappointed. The thatched houses of ordinary people are indeed built in the southwest corner.
Ling Chu's gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and after taking those doubtful, annoyed, and uneasy expressions into his eyes, he said innocently, "But the hexagram shows that the silver is hidden in that direction." ”
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched, whose money was not hidden in the house! In places like thatched houses, the stench was stinking, how could Ling Shangshu hide such a large sum of silver in such a filthy place.
Those brocade guards, their faces were disappointed, they were really dizzy, how could they believe that Ling girl could find the silver.
The silver in the pillar was only found by her, but it was just a coincidence.
Ling Chu ignored the crowd and turned around and walked towards the southwest corner.
No one believed that the hut could hide silver, and everyone stood still.
However, unexpectedly, a tall figure raised his heels.
Those brocade guards looked surprised, why did they follow Miss Ling?
Adults must have believed Miss Ling's words, right?
As soon as this thought came to mind, everyone immediately shook their heads, impossible!
How could they believe such a ridiculous thing, if they were so wise and wise?
As soon as he thought about it, he saw Commander Ning suddenly stop.
Everyone said in their hearts, how could adults believe that there was silver hidden in the thatched house.
Ning Chuyi found that his Jinyi guards didn't follow, so he turned around and said coldly, "Don't keep up yet..."
Those brocade guards looked dazed, and followed?
Where to go?
Seeing the direction of the southwest corner, they suddenly realized at the same time.
Could it be that the adults want to go to the thatched house to change clothes.
But how do you get them to keep up?
Oh, I see, the adults must have felt embarrassed in front of everyone's eyes.
But a bunch of big men went to the thatched house together, which is too much.
Although everyone muttered in their hearts, no one dared to express their dissatisfaction in the face of the cold eyes of the adults.
I could only bite the bullet and follow along bitterly.
Ling Chu didn't know what those brocade guards were thinking, she walked to the thatched house to identify it, raised her feet and walked inside.
The Jinyi guard, who followed behind, saw that she had entered the toilet used by a man, and pointed at Ling Chu's back with trembling fingers, and her lips opened and closed for a long time, but she couldn't say a word.
