After dressing as a widow, I committed a crime

Chapter 27
"Trouble shopkeeper Fan for making this trip in person, I feel really sorry..."

Su Xiaoyue never expected that shopkeeper Fan would come to the door in person, and even sent a good donkey skin. She was overjoyed, it seems that this "Peach Blossom Girl" was able to get out years ago!

"Miss Su, you're welcome."

Shopkeeper Fan smiled gently, waved his hands and said, "A few days ago, I saw Mrs. Su was in a hurry, but I didn't have any suitable ones in my hand. The lady still has to use it, so my hard work is not in vain."

"Thank you, shopkeeper Fan, for thinking about it. If you still have this good donkey skin in the future, you can just send it to me."

They were carried in a bridal sedan chair, and the two exchanged some pleasantries at the door, and shopkeeper Fan took his leave.

"Can this donkey-hide gelatin really have such a good effect?"

At some point, Mrs. Zhang faintly flashed from behind Su Xiaoyue: "For this thing, there have been a lot of nonsense in the village recently. If it doesn't work in the end, it's really not worth the candle..."

"I think my mother knows the cause of those gossips better than I do."

Su Xiaoyue straightened up and looked at Zhang steadfastly: "I also believe that one day, there will be facts to make them shut up."

"..."

Mrs. Zhang opened her mouth, but didn't say anything in front of Su Xiaoyue. She just turned around and left, and began to mutter in a low voice: "Do you want them to shut up, or should I shut up...not for a few days. Discipline, it's going against the sky!"

Mrs. Zhang could see the changes in Su Xiaoyue during this period of time. She changed from a dull gourd with a sawn mouth to a sharp-tongued one. Although she was surprised, she was more relieved. The only fly in the ointment was that Mrs. Zhang could not be as casual as before. reprimanded...

The first step in making donkey-hide gelatin is to soak the donkey skin in running water for two or three days. The purpose is to soften the cortex of the donkey skin so that the glue can be released later.

It's just that Su Xiaoyue never imagined that something went wrong on the first night.

"Who?!"

It turned out that when Su Xiaoyue got up at night, she suddenly heard a rustling sound outside the door, her heart tightened, she took a stick to protect her chest, and just ran out of the room when she saw an agile figure in the dark night Come out of the wall courtyard.

After hearing the movement, Lu Ziming and Mrs. Zhang also came out of the house respectively. Mrs. Zhang asked in panic while putting on her clothes: "What's wrong? Did a thief break into the house? Will you be hurt tomorrow? Why don't we hurry up?" Report to the officer..."

"I only saw a shadow just now, and I'm not sure who it is."

Su Xiaoyue glanced at the place where the figure disappeared, thought for a while, and said to Mrs. Zhang: "Mother, go and see if there is any silver in our house. It's okay if the person is just passing by. If it's really a thief, I'm afraid ..."

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Zhang ran back to her room in a hurry, opening the boxes layer by layer with trembling hands.

"Sister-in-law, are you okay?"

Only Su Xiaoyue and Lu Ziming were left in the yard. Lu Ziming hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice.

"It's okay, I just yelled, and the thief ran away."

Su Xiaoyue shook her head, and her eyes fell on the not-so-high courtyard wall again, so she ignored the flickering and flickering feelings in Lu Ziming's eyes, and just said to herself: "It seems that I will find a craftsman tomorrow." Let’s repair this walled courtyard, any thieves can come in, it’s not a big deal if you lose something, but it’s a big deal if you hurt someone..."
