Chapter 900 (1/2)
Xie Zishu took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and then smiled and went forward, ”fourth brother, young master Rong, why are you here? What a coincidence.”
”Qiao?” Xie Wanjin looked at her from top to bottom for a while, slightly frowned and said, ”this new year's festival is coming. There are people crowded in the street outside. Why are you running out? There are no people around. Where have you just gone?”
When he said the last sentence, his eyes fixed on Xie Xiaoliu, as if she had to think about what she said.
Xie Zishu felt more and more pressure in her heart, but she looked innocent and said in a soft voice, ”I've been here all the time.”
She was afraid that her fourth brother would not believe it, and then added, ”there are too many people in the street, which crowded me and the people accompanying me. I looked for it for a while before I saw Xiaoxiao.”
Xiaoxiao is the name of the accompanying little maid. As soon as she heard Miss Liu talking about her, she immediately came forward to help explain: ”yes, fourth childe, that's what the Miss said.”
Xie Zishu gave the little maid a look of ”going back with heavy rewards”. For a moment, she pretended to be pure and docile to her fourth brother.
Just at this time, several guards who had been separated also came to see Xie Wanjin and Rongsheng, and then said, ”fourth childe, this thing today...”
”Needless to say.” Xie Wanjin glanced at the people and motioned them to step back.
They quickly bowed their heads and retreated to one side.
The fourth childe approached Xie Zishu and asked in a low voice, ”haven't you been anywhere else? Haven't you seen anyone else? Xie Xiaoliu.”
”Ah.” Xie Zishu answered with a guilty conscience, ”I haven't been there or seen it.”
”OK.” Xie Wanjin nodded, gently rubbed the hairpin he had just obtained in Aoxue garden with his hand under his sleeve, and asked her slightly with peach eyes, ”where is the Amethyst hairpin that the four brothers sent you not long ago?”
Xie Zishu's heart clicked. She knew that the hairpin that had just fallen off the eaves must have been picked up by the fourth brother.
Now that he has ”criminal evidence” in hand, he must be holding his temper and waiting for her to admit her mistake. Maybe he even wants to train her.
no way!
You can't just wait to die!
Thinking like this, Xiao Liu turned his mind very fast. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and said to his fourth brother, ”the Amethyst hairpin disappeared a few days ago... Maybe it's too rare and valuable to be stolen?”
”Stolen?” Xie Wanjin laughed angrily at her words. ”How many guards are there in our family? What kind of thieves can steal in your boudoir? Xie Xiaoliu! If you don't make it clear to me today, you'll wait to go to the third brother for training!”
The only girl in the family was spoiled to be lawless.
The fourth childe had no other way to cure her except to pretend to say something about her.
Third brother is different.
Just moving out of his name can make Xiao Liu honest.
Xie Zishu was really frightened when she heard this, but she soon thought of what happened a few days ago and immediately said, ”I don't know what kind of thief can steal in our house. Anyway, someone sneaked into the third brother's hidden bamboo garden a few days ago. The fourth brother asked me to ask the third brother who was in his house that night?”
The little girl looked innocent, as if she could ask immediately as long as Xie Wanjin nodded.
The fourth childe is very angry. The older she is, the more she knows how to be angry with him.
Are they free to ask about the third brother?
I'm not afraid of freezing to death.
Xie Wanjin raised his hand and rubbed the center of his eyebrows. He still didn't get better. He couldn't help turning his head and asked Rong Sheng, ”brother Rong, do you have any medicine for people to be obedient when they take it? Give me two. I can't cure this little six.”
”Yes.” Rong Sheng answered and reached into his sleeve to take it.
