Chapter 119 The Mystery of Disappearance (Pink Ticket 320
"What happened to such a thing at home is that your brother is young. If you go back to live for a few days, your in-laws will be more courageous."
Chen Muqing was very grateful to Feng's tolerance and said a lot of thanks.
When the Shen family came to pick up Chen Muqing the next day, Aunt Liu came. She walked back and forth several times inside and out, looking around, looking around at her box.
When Chen Muqing saw this, he simply smiled and said, "What are Aunt Liu looking for?"
Aunt Liu smiled awkwardly and said repeatedly: "No, I didn't look for anything!"
The Shen family is different from the past. The lady is afraid that she will bring things back to her parents' home!
Chen Mu smiled faintly, and did not say it out loud.
In her sleeve, there were 13,000 taels of silver notes.
After returning to Songshu Hutong that day, Chen Muqing followed Li's instructions to settle the accounts with Pang Debao. At this time, she knew that Xiao Sa had sent them onto the carriage and rushed back to the Governor's Office of the Five Army, saying that he had made an appointment with the co-magistrate of the Right Army, and the assistant magistrate, went to Baihualou for a drink. After Pang Debao knew Chen Muqing's intention, he used various excuses to shirk responsibility, and said that he didn't know some of the accounts, so he had to ask Xiao Sa... In the end, Chen Muqing did not understand how much the Shen family owed Xiao Sa.
As the wife said, the money belongs to the Xiao family, not Xiao Sa’s... This time she went back, she happened to find an opportunity to calculate it clearly with Xiao Sa. Thinking back, he had to pay for a thousand taels of silver in the money house. The expense of buying Furong Paste is so large, but I don’t know how he got it... I can’t make it difficult for him!
*******
Back at Songshu Alley, the carriage stopped at the back door.
Mother Wang smiled and said, "Pang Shiguan sent someone to send furniture to him-the outer courtyard was in chaos!"
Chen Muqing smiled and walked around the small courtyard behind with his mother Wang to the inner house.
When walking through the flower hall, Mother Wang suddenly stopped.
"Auntie, it's actually my idea to pick you up!"
Chen Muqing's heart was thrilled when he heard this, and he grabbed Mom Wang's hand with an anxiety on his face: "Is it a wife..."
Mother Wang shook her head quickly: "No, no."
Mother Wang’s loyalty is unquestionable.
Chen Muqing was very confused: "Then..."
"It was Xiao Qi who asked me to pick you up."
Xiao Sa?
Chen Muqing was stunned.
Mother Wang had already whispered: "It was said that something happened to the fourth girl in the second room... I dare not tell my wife, Xiao Qi asked me to take you back, and we will discuss what to do together?" After that, he pointed to the closed flower hall.
Chen Muqing understood.
She pushed the door and entered the flower hall.
The flower hall was empty. It turned out that the tables, chairs and screens were almost gone, but the window lattices and floors were cleaned very clean.
Xiao Sa was still wearing a black coarse pleated dress, with a serious expression standing beside the half-open window frame. The man standing there was a man about the same height as him, with a white jade hairpin on his head and a lotus seed-colored satin straight body.
Hearing the movement, the man turned around.
Chen Muqing was shocked, but unexpectedly it was Ren Xiang.
"You are here!" Xiao Sa greeted Shen Muqing calmly, and Chen Muqing heard the sound of closing the door from behind.
She turned around and saw Mother Wang gently covering the door.
"Auntie, the family has been in chaos these days, so we should be careful," Mrs. Wang smiled at her apologetically and explained, "Stop the wife being sad when she finds out!"
Chen Muqing nodded, and the four of them stood in the center of the flower hall to discuss the matter of Chen Yuerong.
"That day I invited my colleagues to drink, and someone took Dai Gui away. After getting drunk, I stayed at his house. He often used male servants. Two close maids, both of whom were twelve and three years old, not only looked mediocre, but also acted honestly. I laughed at him on the pretext of asking him if he had brought his concubine to serve. He said that the border was hard and there was not so much etiquette. Later, I asked my colleagues again, and everyone said that he was extremely cautious in women." After Xiao Sa said that, he looked at Ren Xiang.
Ren Xiang's brow frowned: "Yesterday, a little brother in Taicang found me and said he found a manager in Kunshan, not far from Taicang, but the man was already dead."
Chen Muqing was very shocked: "...I'm dead!"
It was the first time that Mother Wang heard this news. She trembled and held Chen Muqing's hand: "What should I do... A murder case happened..."
Ren Xiang's face looked very bad. He nodded and whispered: "Not only that, my little brother also said that after the manager arrived in Kunshan, he was generous and looked at him... Someone was planning to attack him, but who knew that he suddenly died in a brothel!"
The matter is already clear - someone paid for the manager who was kicked out of the house to continue to pretend to be the Shen family and take Chen Yuerong away.
Everyone looked at Mother Wang.
Wang's mother's face was as plain as paper, trying her best to maintain her usual calmness and calmness: "After the second manager came back, he went to our house to have a drink. At that time, Wang Gui asked him about the scene when he returned to Taicang. The second manager complained that the second master was very arrogant and did not even give him a copper cow. Not only that, he didn't even drink a sip of tea... So he was so angry that he set off overnight and returned to Kyoto."
"Impossible!" Ren Xiang retorted, "Since Miss Chen Si came to Kyoto, I have lived in my family. If the Kyoto manager came to visit my father-in-law, no matter where I am, my father-in-law would ask me to accompany me. How could he not even have a reward?" He said this, and he looked at Mom Wang suspiciously, "When he said this, did he have never doubted it at home?"
Mother Wang was furious when Ren Xiang looked at her eyes and coldly told her about the past.
Ren Xiang's face gradually turned pale as he heard this.
Xiao Sa raised his eyebrows at Chen Muqing.
Chen Muqing was very puzzled.
Xiao Sa leaned over and whispered: "We have fourteen bedrooms in my family, but no one dared to do such a thing!" His tone was very sarcastic.
Chen Muqing sneered: "It's time for you to watch the fun!"
"No, no, absolutely not!" Xiao Sa looked at Wang's mother who was talking to Ren Xiang with anger on her face, and said in an anxious but joking voice, "It's not that our family doesn't have such a thing, but that no one in our family dares to openly slap like yours... you have to hide it!"
Chen Muqing was filled with energy.
When Xiao Sa saw this, he took a step back and said, "A gentleman speaks, a villain takes action."
"Then have you heard of it? Only women and villains are hard to raise... Sometimes women are the same as villains..."
"Oh!" Xiao Sa immediately pretended to be enlightened, "It turns out that I thought I was standing too far... I said it earlier, why bother to beat around the bush like this."
Chen Muqing was about to speak to refute, but felt silence around him.
She looked around in confusion.
I saw Mother Wang and Ren Xiang looking at them in surprise.
Chen Muqing had thin sweat on his back.
She looked at Xiao Sa angrily, took a step forward, and was about to speak, but Xiao Sa stopped Chen Muqing in front of him two and a half steps, coughed gently, and said, "I think this matter is too strange. Everyone will make a long-term plan, everyone will make a long-term plan!"
