Maid's Counterattack

Chapter 9 Theft
At the banquet of the eldest son's wedding, the third lady wanted to go back after eating.

"Recently I always feel lazy and have no appetite."

The third lady stood up, and Zhui'er hurriedly stepped forward to help her.

"Maybe it's because I didn't sleep well at night."

The third lady smiled meaningfully.

"After you go back, you should eat first, and call Doctor Qin over after eating."

"Yes." Zhui'er agreed, and helped the third lady to cross the crowd, and the others followed closely behind.

When Zi Luo was walking on the small road to get lunch, he found that there were basically no people on the road, and everyone probably went to the front yard to join in the fun, so the road was very quiet, and a little noise would be very abrupt.

Ziluo's heart suddenly jumped, she seemed to hear some sound, curiosity prompted her to look around for the source of the sound, but in the next second she blushed and quickened her pace.

When we arrived at the kitchen, there were only two aunts on duty. Today was probably a good day, and even the meals for the servants were plentiful. Zi Luo was already hungry, and he secretly squeezed a piece of meat and chewed it in his mouth. , walking back quickly with the food box in hand, and saw Shuangyue from a long distance.

"You're finally here, so heavy."

Although Ziluo complained, there was a smile on his face.

"Come on, let me lift the heavy one."

Shuangyue took the food box, the two talked and laughed, bathed in the sun, stepped on the cobblestones, and soon returned to their residence.A few people didn't say a word, only the sound of chopsticks hitting the bowl, which showed the degree of hunger.

"Ah, it's really comfortable."

Lan Yu, who put down the bowl and chopsticks, stroked her stomach with a satisfied look on her face.

"I don't know how much saliva I swallowed just now."

Double Moon laughed.

"Should we go back now, the third lady seems to be feeling unwell in the morning?"

Ziluo cleaned up the dishes.

"Yes, you go and send the lunch box back, and Shuangyue and I will go back first."

Lan Yu looked at Zi Luo and said.

"Ok."

Zi Luo quickly packed up and left first.

When Ziluo returned to the residence of the third lady, he saw that the doctor was already feeling the pulse of the third lady.

The third lady was lying softly on the bed, leaning against a quilt folded into a square, the light gauze curtains on both sides of the bed half-hid her graceful figure, and stretched out one arm to rest on a square stool beside the bed , with a thin silk scarf covering his wrist, an old man with a gray beard frowned and pressed his finger on the wrist under the silk scarf, suddenly he smiled, and the wrinkles on his face stretched out.

"Congratulations, third lady, you are lucky."

The doctor stood up and clasped his fists in salute.

"Congratulations madam."

Zhui'er smiled after being taken aback.

"It's been more than a month."

The third lady is very calm.

"Go back to Madam, the fetus is more than a month old, I will just prescribe some anti-fetal medicine for Madam."

The doctor waved the brush as he spoke.

"Lan Yu, hurry up and inform the master."

Zhui'er looked at Lan Yu.

"Don't worry, the master drank too much wine today, don't bother him, tell him tomorrow, but prepare some sour plum soup for me, I'm thinking about it."

The third lady's lazy voice came to her ears.

"Yes."

Lan Yu backed out.

"Shuangyue, take it to get the medicine, and bring it here after it's fried."

Zhui'er took the doctor's prescription and handed it to Shuangyue, then took out a certain amount of money from the cabinet behind her and stuffed it into the doctor's hand.

"The doctor has worked hard, and I will invite the doctor to check the pulse in the future to ensure the safety of the fetus."

"sure."

The doctor nodded with a smile, put away the money and left.

There were only the three of them left in the room, Zi Luo hurriedly got a rag and started to clean, while Zhui Er went to the bed and beat his wife's legs.

"Not good, not good."

When I heard the voice of a servant from far to near, it was already time for afternoon tea, and the third lady was admiring the flowers in the gazebo in the yard.

"What's wrong, so flustered?"

Zhui'er spoke harshly first.

"It's not good. The queen mother gave me less things. The master lost his temper and said that he must catch the thief."

The boy was panting heavily while talking intermittently.

"Oh, there is such a thing!"

The third lady frowned slightly.

"Go, go to the master."

When the third lady stood up, Zhui'er stretched out her hand to support her elbow.

Before Shuangyue Jianyao came back, Lan Yu was sent to a tailor to order loose clothes.Zhui'er called Shang Ziluo to go together.

Although the master's study is a little far away from the third lady's place, but he is anxious in his heart, and his pace is fast, and the time will come soon.

"My lord, what the hell..."

The third lady raised her foot and crossed the threshold while asking, but suddenly stopped talking.

I saw a young servant kneeling in the room, said to be a young servant, and judging from his clothes, he could be regarded as the person in charge among the young servants. The air seemed to condense, making it impossible to take a deep breath.

"Which thief is willing to admit that he stole it himself. Where were you when everyone was eating at noon?"

Master Zhao's tone was blunt, and he exhaled heavily from his nasal cavity.

"Master, were those things lost at noon?"

The third lady glanced at the kneeling man and asked anxiously.

"According to the person in charge, he found that there was something missing not long after the prince sent the gift and left."

Master Zhao remained expressionless, and gave the third lady a sideways look from the corner of his eye.

"Master, without evidence, it cannot be said that he stole it."

There was a coquettish tone in the third lady's voice.

To make the third lady intercede for her, Zi Luo couldn't help but look at that person a few more times.Seeing this, some clips suddenly popped up in his mind, this person seemed to have seen it before, Zi Luo's face was slightly reddened, he frowned slightly, and his mind turned blank instantly after running extremely fast.

"Who says there is no evidence."

The lady's voice appeared at the door together with her, and the expressions on everyone's faces changed immediately, especially the people kneeling on the ground were shocked, as if their own death had come.

I saw a servant following the eldest lady, holding a tray with some jewelry necklaces on it.

"It was found in this man's house."

The eldest lady spoke steadily, and looked at Master Zhao after she finished speaking.

"No, it's impossible, no...someone must have framed me...I..."

The man spoke incoherently in fright and trembled even more than before.

"Bastard, come here, pull him out and beat him to death with sticks."

Master Zhao stared angrily.

"No, it's not me, master, please forgive me, I didn't steal it... the third lady is not me..."

The person being dragged screamed loudly, his voice was out of tune, and he was extremely shrill, and he couldn't hear the cry until he was dragged away.

The third lady suddenly tilted, fortunately she was supported by Zhui'er, she stroked her stomach lightly, her breathing became short of breath.

"Ma'am, be careful if you move your fetus."

As soon as Zhui'er said the words, she gasped, knowing that she had slipped her tongue, the madam had told the master to tell tomorrow.

Sure enough, everyone looked at the third lady in surprise.

　Hope more people like it!Thank you for your support!
