Chapter 028: Discipline
"If I'm not mistaken, I didn't touch you at all, did I?"
At this time, Jiang Yurong took a deep breath, and her eyes met his playful expression like water, as if she had mustered great courage.
"Yujing, I don't blame you, father, he deserves it, you just act impartially. You have so many women, but you are reluctant to touch a single hair of mine, I know you have me in your heart. ”
She paused, determined like a moth to a fire.
"As long as you send them all away, I will be with you for the rest of your life."
As soon as the words fell, I saw Bai Yujing stunned, and then slowly leaned over with a gentle smile.
The burning snort fell on Jiang Yurong's face, making her snow-white skin suddenly red, but she heard a sarcastic voice without warmth ringing in her ears.
"Miss Jiang heard clearly, Lao Tzu has never touched anyone!"
……
I only heard Xia Yunxian sigh lightly, and his face was actually sad.
"It's not just the third lady who has been wronged, the prince suspected his daughter-in-law and Huo Dagongzi in front of so many people, and he drew his sword on the spot, and I haven't seen him a word of comfort and explanation until now."
"You, why are you so selfish? Now it's about Qingqing's marriage! ”
"Mother-in-law is right, selfish people have never been nosy, and the third lady's daughter-in-law has no opinion."
Xia Yunxian was about to leave, but Old Madam Liu hurriedly stopped her, "Who wants your opinion?" Whatever it is, get some dowry jewelry! ”
Is this a trick on her coming?
Seeing that Xia Yunxian didn't speak, Old Madam Liu sighed heavily, "It's good that the third lady of our Hou Mansion is married, and it is natural to be beautiful when she gets married, and you and the second room are a little out to add joy to her." ”
At this time, Wen's family, who had been watching the play on the side, immediately stood up and blessed his body, "Mother, the house doctor gave the second master a new prescription, saying that it would take a few hundred taels of silver to completely cure his broken leg. ”
Old Madam Liu couldn't help frowning, "What do you mean by that?" ”
Wen picked up the handkerchief and wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes, "What my daughter-in-law means is that my husband is going to be a waste, how can I still be in the mood to add joy to others." ”
With such a sentence, she took out another string of Buddhist beads and withdrew while reciting the scriptures.
Seeing Wen's appearance, Mrs. Liu could only grit her teeth in anger, but there was nothing she could do.
She turned to look at Xia Yunxian again, and she didn't want the calm woman to be helpless, "If the daughter-in-law still has a private treasury, she should have taken it out when she saved the second master, why don't you go to Princess Pingnan or the old princess to borrow it?" ”
"You...... You ......"
Old Madam Liu opened her mouth and went to Pingnan Wangfu to borrow it?
Don't think the Marquis of Yongding Mansion has lost enough face?
Seeing that she finally couldn't say a word, Xia Yunxian also smiled, sighed and turned away regretfully.
Back inside the house, Chunxiao was angry and worried.
"Princess, the old lady has always liked to mess around, I'm afraid she won't give up."
"Not only her, Liu Qingqing is not a character who will sit still." Xia Yunxian was already prepared in his heart.
The candles were blown out, and there was soon a burst of calm in the courtyard.
But I didn't want to be at night, a cold wind poured in, waking up Xia Yunxian on the couch, and in the haze, I saw a sneaky figure groping for something in front of her dresser.
The dignified Marquis's Mansion actually entered the thief?!
Just as he was about to call someone, a familiar rouge made Xia Yunxian immediately change his mind, and it was not until the figure almost turned the room over that he quietly left again.
However, an hour later, the Hou Mansion, which was originally shrouded in darkness, suddenly lit up the lanterns, and Liu Chengyu helped Mrs. Liu to break into Xia Yunxian's house with a displeased face, and looked at the woman who was already dressed in a neat manner.
"Why did you report to the police?"
"My house was stolen at night, so naturally I have to report it to the official, what's the matter, have the officials arrived?"
Xia Yunxian's face did not change, and the old lady Liu on the side suddenly coughed in embarrassment, "Such a big matter, you actually make your own decisions and don't discuss it with your mother-in-law?" ”
"The Hou Mansion is not a place where any thief can break into casually, the daughter-in-law suspects that there is a thief, and she is afraid that she will hurt the female relatives in the house, so naturally she can't leak the news."
House thief?!
Liu Chengyu, who originally thought that Xia Yunxian was making a big fuss, immediately chuckled in his heart, recalling all the misunderstandings he had about her these days, and now he endured his anger.
"Then let the officials come in and search."
Old Madam Liu hurriedly grabbed him, "The prince can't help it, and now the Hou Mansion can't make any more big noises to attract attention!" ”
"This thief dares to steal from me, who knows what else he will do to kill people and steal goods, how can the Hou Mansion keep such a scourge?" Xia Yunxian reminded.
"If it's not a thief, maybe it's some wanted thief wandering around Kyoto, if the Hou Mansion can catch this person, it will be a great achievement!"
In just two words, Liu Chengyu was immediately moved, and he was about to order someone to invite the official messenger outside, but when he saw that Mrs. Liu's face was flustered, he finally changed his words.
"Stop! It's just some worthless stuff, so why bother with the crowd! ”
Xia Yunxian raised her eyebrows and couldn't help but smile, "How does my mother-in-law know that what I stole is not valuable?" Those are my mother's thoughts, and they are invaluable to me! ”
Old Madam Liu choked in her throat, and seeing that she was still unrelenting, she stepped forward and lowered her voice.
"It was Qingqing who took it! So, let the officials all be withdrawn. ”
"Why did the third lady steal my things, didn't the prince already order someone to take care of her?" Xia Yunxian pretended to be surprised, and Old Madam Liu immediately scolded.
"What do you mean by stealing from you? She's going to get married, what's wrong with you being a sister-in-law and giving a little dowry! It's embarrassing to disturb people's dreams, is it because you want to damage the reputation of the Hou Mansion? ”
Liu Chengyu's face had changed, "Mother, you are still indulging that stinky girl even now!" ”
Thinking of Liu Qingqing scolding and beating him today, disrespecting him in every way, and everyone was locked in the house, and let his mother out to do such a shameful thing!
He must have done too much in this world!
Mrs. Liu was very aggrieved, her sister was hurt so much, and he, who was the eldest brother, didn't even help!
And now, for the sake of the culprit to disobey her!
"It's you! It must have been something you said to Qingqing in the carriage, she was so innocent that she was bent on marrying Bai Yujing! ”
"You are most responsible!"
Xia Yunxian saw that Old Madam Liu actually pointed at her nose and bit back, and laughed instead of being angry, "Mother-in-law thinks that Yunxian instigated the third miss?" Then you might as well call her out and confront me face to face! ”
"Princess, the thief has been caught!"
At this time, Chunxiao led two officials to drag out Liu Qingqing, who had already changed her outfit, the girl's eyes were red like a trapped beast, and the black clothes on her body were broken a few times, and her expression became more and more hideous after seeing Xia Yunxian.
When Liu Chengyu saw her dress, his heart was shocked, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Where are you going?!" ”
