Happy Marriage

Chapter 172: on fire

"Bracelet? My bracelet?" Xue Shi was a little puzzled.

One of the officials reached into his arms, took out two red gold twisted silk bracelets, and handed them to Xia Yuanwai for a look: "This is the evidence of the crime."

Member Xia only glanced at him, and then ruthlessly gouged out the Xue family: "Do you still want to deny it?"

Xue Shi also leaned over and glanced at it, and the doubt on his face was even heavier: "I haven't worn this bracelet for a long time. I'm afraid I lost it. How can I be here?"

Member Xia snorted coldly: "I lost it? Even if I lost it, I'm afraid that your good brother stole it?"

Xue Shi was speechless, and he was speechless.

This is the truth. According to Xue's character, if any of the servants in the mansion had dirty hands and feet, they would have been turned upside down long ago. She lost a pair of gold bracelets and didn't even say anything. Obviously, she was afraid that Xue Zhao had stolen it.

Xia Zixian tugged at Xue's family secretly, and gave her a secret wink: "How could uncle do such a thing? Even if it's for the sake of his mother, he can't make his own claims, right? Come over today and have more Talking and laughing, never mentioned this matter."

This is to let the Xue family leave the car and keep the coach in charge, and first shirk the matter.

However, the Xue family refused to give in: "It's impossible! Someone must have framed us on purpose. Is Xue Zhao fed up?"

The official snorted lightly from the end of his nose, then looked at each other, and said solemnly: "Madam, don't worry, we are not here to investigate your sins. This aunt has said it again and again, and she doesn't believe you will do this. This kind of thing, do not want to pursue.

But we cannot tolerate the perpetrator, we must arrest him and bring him to justice. So, please tell us, where did Xue Zhao go? "

Xia Yuanwai glared angrily: "Xirou is tolerant, she doesn't even care about what you did to her, and treats her leniently. But you slander her again and again, and you are not forgiving. Comparing the two, the moral character is superior. If you are not willing to tell the truth , then go to the government office and talk. I will never let go of those who harm Xirou."

Xue Shi had just been beaten, and now she was reprimanded again, with a face full of grievances, anger, and hatred.

"I've already said that this matter has nothing to do with us, and it can't be Xue Zhao's actions. I don't even know where he is now? Would you believe me if I had to cut my heart out and show it to you?"

Xirou waved her hands again and again with a look of horror: "No, ma'am, Xirou has already said, I believe it's not you who did it."

"Young cat crying, mouse and fake compassion!" Xue Shi was not appreciative: "I know how my brother does things. I know very well that he has always been unprofitable and can't afford to deal with you."

"Are you still arguing?" Xia Yuanwai looked distressed: "Now that there are witnesses and physical evidence, you still refuse to admit it, and you are still so assertive? Since entering the door, Xirou has been obedient to you and submissive to you. If you don't get rid of it. She wouldn't give up, would she?"

"No!" Xue shi almost slapped his chest and cursed: "Those who kill a thousand knives would do such a thing!"

There was a lot of noise here. The two officials looked at each other and cupped their hands at Xia Yuanwai: "It's not convenient for us to participate in your house's housework. Let's go back to the business. Regarding Xue Zhao's whereabouts, if Xia Yuanwai has any information. The news, please send someone to let us know, so we can close the case as soon as possible."

Xia Yuanwai, in front of outsiders, did not want people to see the joke, so he politely sent the two officials out.

When he turned around to face the Xue family, his face was already full of wind and rain.

"Come here, take the lady back to the yard to rest. In the future, don't walk around if you have nothing to do! I will leave the house to Aunt Rou to take care of it for the time being!"

Xue shi took a few steps back, full of disbelief: "Master, you actually offended me like this?"

Xia Yuanwai sneered angrily: "This is already a mild case! After the case is found out, whether you want to leave or stay, or say something else!"

These words were like five thunders, and Xue's whole person was stupid and dumbfounded.

Tears welled up in Xia Zixian's eyes, "Father, how can you do this? Have you forgotten how much your mother suffered with you? How many grievances and abuses did she suffer for you? How can you be gullible? ?"

Xia Yuanwai turned around and looked at Aunt Rou distressedly, and stopped paying attention to Xia Zixian and Xue Shi: "How are you now? Are you injured? Are they embarrassing you?"

Aunt Rou shook her head: "I was frightened, but my heart is still flustered. I'm not injured."

Member Xia took her into his arms: "Don't be afraid, I'm here. Be careful when you go out in the future, don't be so hasty. Go, go back, and let the girl make you a cup of ginseng tea to calm your nerves."

Aunt Rou nodded obediently, and walked away with Xia Yuanwai directly.

Xue Shi fell down on the ground, straightened his eyes, and after a long while, under Xia Zixian's persuasion, he gritted his teeth and said in a bitter voice, "Fox spirit, it's vicious!"

As a bystander, An Sheng looked a little silly on the side.

Did the Xue Clan lose like this?

How could Aunt Rou win so beautifully?

Is it really that Xue Zhao kidnapped Aunt Rou under the order of the Xue family?

Aunt Rou, a woman with no power to tie a chicken, can escape the claws of two villains, and also bring them to justice, which is too magical.

But Aunt Rou has no relatives and no reason in the capital, so it is impossible to set up such a situation and in turn frame it for the Xue family, right?

No one would believe it.

Aunt Rou entered the Xia Mansion in just over a dozen days, and she actually eliminated the deep-rooted Xue clan?

Compared with her, he is simply too weak.

She felt more and more that this Aunt Rou was really not easy.

Xue Zhao came to the door the next day, swearing and swearing, claiming that he had been wronged, and he would not hesitate to scold the sky and the sky to strike five thunders.

On that day, his house asked for money from the Xue family, and he had a lot of money.

But as soon as he heard that he was going to the yamen, he immediately became timid, shook his head like a rattle, insisted that he would not go to the hall to confront the two people, and he didn't care about Xue's current situation, and ran out in a hurry. Never dare to come in.

Whether this matter is too big or too small, if no one keeps pursuing it, in the end, it will actually be over.

Xia Yuanwai was filled with righteous indignation at first, and he refused to forgive. Later, I heard that it was Aunt Rou who persuaded him and raised her hand, so she just let it go.

Xia Yuanwai has been very busy with official business recently, and he can't be distracted if he leaves early and returns late, so things are put on hold for the time being.

Aunt Rou had complete freedom in the mansion, she could come and go as she liked, and she really became the newly promoted mistress of the Xia family.

And the Xue family is naturally not to be outdone. In her own words: the broken boat is still three inches.

Her foundation is here, and she will not be willing to hand over all matters in the house to Aunt Rou to control, and the two started another battle for power. You come and go, and you don't give in to each other.

An Sheng is not in the house on weekdays, so he has always been a bystander and did not participate.

Moreover, this Aunt Rou's methods were really good, and An Sheng gradually became vigilant, not wanting her to really become the head of the Xia family. In case, it's really like what Xue said, she has ulterior motives?

After the weather was cool, the night came early, and An Sheng returned to the house early.

The carriage was halfway through, when I heard the noise of people outside, the footsteps were chaotic, and the carriage slowly stopped.

An Sheng stuck his head out of the car and saw the crowd on the street talking, as if something had happened suddenly.

"Uncle Leng, what's the matter?" An Sheng asked curiously.

Uncle Leng replied, "Miss Ansheng, I heard that there was a fire in the east. The officers and soldiers were rushing to put out the fire, so the road was temporarily blocked, and we had to wait a while before leaving."

An Sheng raised his eyes and looked to the east, because it was at dusk, and it was getting dark, so the fire was especially bright, with thick black smoke, and it seemed that the fire was not small. I don't know how many innocent people will be implicated.

"The danger is serious, we are not in a hurry, we will leave in a while." An Sheng retreated into the carriage after instructing, and continued to concentrate on reading her medical book, ignoring what was going on outside the window.

After only one meal, the road was cleared, the carriage continued to drive, and An Sheng was sent back to the Xia Mansion.

An Sheng got off the carriage and went straight back to his yard.

Dragon Boat Festival put up the pergola and looked to the east. When he saw An Sheng, he asked curiously, "Miss, I heard that there was a fire in the east. You just came back from outside, do you know where it is?"

An Sheng shook his head: "It is true that there are many officers and soldiers pushing water dragons to the East City. It is obvious that the fire is very strong, but I did not inquire."

Dragon Boat Festival came down from a high place: "It's when the sky is dry and things are dry, and there is a strong wind today. The fire is very violent together. It's not easy to put it out."

An Sheng gave an "um": "Thanks to being on the outskirts of the city, otherwise today's wind would almost destroy a street of residential buildings. I don't know who was so careless."

On the Dragon Boat Festival, he poured tea and served it to her, gloating over the misfortune: "Today, the madam was reprimanded by the master again."

"Really?" An Sheng took a sip of tea and raised his face: "She is not a match for Aunt Rou at all, and she has repeatedly come to the door to provoke her. It is common for her father to blame her. This time, it should also be because of Aunt Rou. ?"

"No," the Dragon Boat Festival continued, "Today, Madam had a quarrel with Aunt Rou, and even got into a fight."

An Sheng was no stranger to this, Xue Shi couldn't tolerate Aunt Rou, even if she was patient, there would eventually be a day when she would break out.

She said indifferently "Oh": "What is it for this time?"

"I heard that when Madam and Concubine Rou were talking today, they brought up old things again, and brought up the incident of being abducted and sold that day. Concubine Rou said something wrong for a while, which made Xia Zixian suddenly think of one thing, Madam's red gold The bracelet has not been worn for many days, and Aunt Rou has just entered the door and has never seen the bracelet before. How could she be able to identify it at a glance?

The lady felt very puzzled when she heard it, and questioned Aunt Rou, who was speechless for a while. Xue naturally believed that it was a trap set by Concubine Rou and deliberately framed herself, and the two parties quarreled.

When Aunt Rou was angry, she said something disrespectful, and the eldest lady immediately moved her hand and hit Aunt Rou.

And Aunt Rou, relying on the master's favor, was fearless and fought back on the spot. Madam Xia Zixian and the others were here to help, and Aunt Rou suffered a loss.

The servants were helpless and in a dilemma. Someone went to the master to call the master back, and the master calmed down the matter. "
