Chapter 4 Two Dogs Stealing
"Miss, Miss, the fifth concubine's close clothes are gone. I'm obviously hanging in a hidden place. Why has it disappeared? There has been no wind these days." Xia Tian ran into the house from the yard and said in panic.
The fifth concubine's close-fitting clothes were specially handed over to Chen Wanxin's embroidery pattern, and specifically said that Wanxin must embroider himself. First, the embroidery is close-fitting, and second, the texture is exquisite. Wanxin is the daughter of the Shen family. Now such an important item is lost, what should I do? In another three days, it will be the delivery deadline. Even if the fifth concubine does not pursue it, the fifth concubine's man, Landlord Liu, cannot let them go. Landlord Liu is a bully in this area. At first, the three of them were bullied by Landlord Liu. They even almost snatch Mingyue to their homes as the seventh concubine. Fortunately, Chen Wanxin met Landlord Liu, who has always loved the fifth concubine the most, and Landlord Liu followed the advice of this concubine. Because of the fifth concubine's relationship, the three of Chen Wanxin's master and servant lived a little more comfortable in the village.
"I understand." Chen Wanxin raised his eyes lightly and continued his work in his hands with a blank expression.
"Miss, what will we give to the fifth concubine in three days?" Xia Tian started to circle around the house anxiously. Their days were just a little better. What if Landlord Liu blamed him? She doesn't care, but Lady... "Miss, just say I lost him! If Landlord Liu blames him, you'll push him all over me."
"In summer, you don't have to be impatient, you can find it in less than three days. Tomorrow," Chen Wanxin said.
"Miss, why are you not in a hurry at all?"
Chen Wanxin is not in a hurry? No, she is very anxious. She wishes to kill her enemy with a knife hand now. But she knows that hasteness is not enough, and everything needs to be planned carefully.
The next day, Chen Wanxin just got up and heard a noise outside. At this time, Mingyue ran in panic, "No, Ergou told the people in the village at the door, "Miss, you have fallen in love with him and have made a private lifelong decision. He does not rely on it, but he has to agree with the identity of the lady. Now Madam Zhang has brought a bunch of people to our side."
"Oh? This is strange. I want to see when I will make a private decision with him for life?" After that, Chen Wanxin opened the door calmly, walked out quickly and stood straight in the yard.
"Come on, I, an old woman, ask everyone to judge. Why does she like my son and want my son to marry her?" Madam Zhang shouted while walking in with a group of people and Ergou. She wanted to smash the door with great momentum, but she didn't expect the person they were looking for was standing in the yard.
Chen Wanxin looked at the crowd of people and saluted Shiran. The people present were all native to the village, and no one had ever saluted them. Now when he saw Chen Wanxin saluting them, his posture was very elegant and beautiful. In an instant, the crowd became quiet, and only a few people were whispering. "I'm not afraid of any misunderstandings about this Shen family's girl who can fall in love with Ergou, right?" "I think so, this is the lady in the big house. How could she do a private lifelong task?"
Seeing that everyone was given a simple greeting from Chen Wanxin, Madam Zhang changed her tone and was so angry that she started scolding, "You fell in love with my Ergou and even gave your personal belongings to Ergou privately. Let me tell you, although we are countrymen, we want shame."
"Madam Zhang, you are slandering. How could my lady give Ergou? Ergou often comes to our yard sneakily. Even if there is something, it's okay to steal it!" When Xia Tian heard someone slandering the lady, she immediately turned a deep face and stood up and scolded Madam Zhang.
"Oh, oh, listen to it, this little hoof said that I'm stealing something. Ergou, come out and tell me clearly." Madam Zhang stood among the crowd with her hands on her hips, arrogant.
Chen Wanxin looked indifferently at Ergou who walked out of the crowd. When Ergou looked up, his eyes happened to meet Wanxin. He was inexplicably stunned and cold, but then he thought that he was sure to win, so what to panic. Besides, he had already discussed with his mother. After saying that she, Chen Wanxin, a little girl in her teens, could run away? She hasn't become her concubine yet. Thinking that the Miss Shen family wanted to become her concubine, the anxiety just now was wiped out. She showed a lustful look, looking at Chen Wanxin from top to bottom. Wanxin was disgusted by this look. At this time, Xia Tian walked in front of Wanxin and blocked Ergou's vulgar gaze with her body.
"Dear neighbors, everyone knows about my Ergou's character." Ergou said something, and a few low laughs came from the crowd. "Hehe, I don't talk nonsense, the evidence is me. And physical evidence..." Ergou slowly took out a ball of red silk cloth from his arms, and put it under his nose and took a deep breath. "It smells so fragrant..." His expression was desolate and despicable! After that, he shook the thing in his hand, which was a bellyband embroidered with orchids.
"Oh, I'm so ashamed." "I didn't expect it!" The younger daughter-in-law in the crowd blushed and covered her eyes with embarrassment. Only the older mothers began to mutter.
"Wanxin, you see, this is the token of love you secretly stuffed to me yesterday. I didn't let my mother see it on purpose, but this marriage is all due to the orders of my parents and the matchmaker's words, so... But Wanxin, don't worry, I will be responsible for you."
"Ergou, do you say that the things in your hand are the token of love I gave you yesterday?" Chen Wanxin pointed at the things in Ergou's hand and said coldly.
Ergou was stunned and thought that Chen Wanxin was making the last unnecessary struggle. "Yes, it's here, you give it to me..."
"Okay, since you said it was a token of love, what items do I have here? The tokens appear in pairs, what about your things? Everyone can find them at will." Chen Wanxin turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation.
"Your place at this time, you may not throw away your things." Ergou said without hesitation.
"Take it? Don't you say I have a deep affection for you? I gave you all the close items, how could I bear to throw the token you gave me?" Chen Wanxin snorted coldly. Ergou is too petty for her now, and Ergou's words are full of loopholes. Chen Wanxin once again annoyed his weakness in his previous life.
"You..." Ergou still had to explain.
"Don't find a reason, I don't have anything to you here. Moreover, the things in your hands are not mine." Chen Wanxin slowly said these words, and the crowd was once again boiling.
"Why, why isn't it yours?" Ergou was a little panicked, "It was obviously you, I gave it to me."
"Okay, Chen Wanxin, you can even say such a close-fitting thing that is not yours. I have long seen that you are half-hearted about us!" Madam Zhang also shouted.
"This item is indeed not mine. Is Pearl here?" Chen Wanxin stretched out his head and shouted someone's name.
"I'm in" a person who looks like a little maid came out of the crowd.
"Pearl, come and take a look. Do you look familiar with this item?" Chen Wanxin waved his hand gently to let Pearl come over.
Pearl walked to Ergou, took the ball of red cloth, glanced at it, and exclaimed, "Oh my God, isn't this the fifth concubine's? How could it be in Ergou's hands?"
