Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!

Chapter 156: Master and servant are all thieves?

"Lihua, your skills are so rare!" Mrs. Min couldn't put it down. She held the fan in her hand and the others begged to see it, but she never let go.

Yang Lihua was not self-effacing, but she was not complacent either. She smiled gently and replied, "I haven't embroidered for several years. My techniques are unfamiliar, so I hope you don't mind me. When I have some free time in the future, I will practice for a few more days and embroider better." To Madam.”

"That's great!" Mrs. Min originally intended to praise Yang Lihua, but she just wanted to introduce her to talk to the guests and become familiar with her.

I didn't expect Yang Lihua to be so competitive and impress everyone with her true skills.

Even though new guests arrived, Mrs. Min rushed to greet them, and Yang Lihua also chatted lively with the remaining ladies.

Of course, people were more curious about Yang Lihua's identity and asked more questions.

Yang Lihua didn't hide anything, and responded neither humble nor overbearing.

When everyone heard that she was just a farmer's daughter-in-law, they thought they had heard wrongly, and they were half-convinced and did not dare to neglect her.

Yang Lihua chose a seat near the door, and Zhuzhu sat next to her mother, obediently listening to the adults talking, while attacking the snacks on the table.

Yang Lihua usually spoils her daughter, but she also teaches strict rules.

Zhuzhu ate the snacks without being in a hurry, and she didn't drop any crumbs everywhere. She just nibbled on them, puffing up her little face, and squinting her big eyes in happiness from time to time because of the delicious snacks.

Everyone here is a woman, and they have children, and seeing the fat girl like this is really rare. I want to reach out and poke her chubby little face...

Seven or eight more ladies arrived one after another, making the room even more lively.

The wives of each family also brought their children, so Mrs. Min called her daughter to come out to entertain the guests.

Miss Min was also taught strictly. She greeted the little girls from each family and then led them to play in her yard.

Of course Zhuzhu was among them, and because she was too young, she was held by Miss Min herself.

Yang Lihua was worried and asked Chunhong to follow her and take care of her.

If there are more women, naturally there will be more topics.

You talk about the children and old people at home, she talks about rouge, gouache, clothing materials and jewelry, it’s very lively.

Yang Lihua sat in an inconspicuous position. She smiled and listened most of the time, and when she had time, she could distract herself and be lazy.

A few days ago, a family in the county was robbed. It is said that the thief even drew a turtle on the face of the male owner, which almost made the family angry and scared to death.

But it was a rare joke to outsiders. At least all the women in the room covered their mouths with handkerchiefs, trembling with laughter.

At this time, an inconspicuous little maid came in from outside, walked along the wall to the incense burner, changed a piece of fragrant cake, and then lit it.

Yang Lihua had nothing to do, so she just took a few more glances.

After a while, a mother-in-law came to Mrs. Min to report that the banquet was almost ready.

Mrs. Min then ordered an eldest maid, "Go and invite the ladies over. There's going to be a banquet."

Soon, Zhuzhu came back with a group of little girls.

Yang Lihua looked at her daughter's blushing face and felt a little relieved when she guessed that she wasn't being bullied.

She held her daughter in her arms and asked in a low voice, "What did Zhuzhu do just now? Is it interesting?"

Zhuzhu shook her head with a smile and showed off to her mother, "Miss, I brought some snacks for Zhuzhu to eat, and some fruits too! They are very sweet! Mom, Zhuzhu will earn money when she grows up, so I will buy them for you too!"

Yang Lihua guessed that her daughter was young and the other girls were playing around. Maybe they were afraid of hurting her, so they gave her food and drinks to coax her not to make trouble.

While Zhuzhu was talking, she remembered that she still didn't know the name of the dim sum, so she anxiously went to find where Miss Min was sitting, and wanted to ask.

But she suddenly frowned, blinked her big eyes, and her face was full of doubts.

"Mom, why are your heads so gray?"

Yang Lihua was stunned for a moment, then quickly covered her daughter's mouth.She looked around, everyone was laughing and joking, but no one paid attention here.

Then she lay down next to her daughter's ear and asked softly, "Zhuzhu, please tell me carefully, how are we different?"

Zhuzhu thought of the agreement she made with her grandfather, and her little mind was very entangled.

But her mother loves her the most, so she doesn’t tell anyone, and she can’t hide it from her!
So, she said in a low voice, "Mom, you all have gray air masses on your heads! This means you are going to be unlucky. Well, no, something bad is happening!"

She wanted to understand, but the vocabulary in her head was limited, so she couldn't express herself confusingly.

But Yang Lihua understood and quickly asked, "What about these children who come in from outside? Is it the same?"

Zhuzhu tilted her little head, looked around, and then responded in surprise, "Mom, it was all white just now, but now it's gray!"

Yang Lihua raised her voice in one breath, her expression remained unchanged, but her mind started to spin crazily.

According to what the daughter said, it was the people in the house who had the problem first, and the children who came in later were just implicated.

So what is it that everyone can be contaminated with and then affected?
Tea?

dessert?

Everyone in the house had naturally eaten and drank, but the children who came in later had no entrance!

what else……

She suddenly looked at the hollow aromatherapy stove in the corner, and the green smoke was drifting away continuously...

It smells good, there must be something wrong with the smell!

Yang Lihua breathed a sigh of relief, but she had to think of a way to take out the incense burner.

You definitely can't talk to Mrs. Min directly, otherwise everyone else will pay attention, and if you make a fuss, you won't be helping the Min family, but ruining the Min family's reputation!
Zhuzhu probably drank too much tea and wanted to go to the convenience store, so she turned back to find Chunhong.

Yang Lihua was cruel, motioned Chunhong to come forward, and gave some careful instructions.

Chunhong kept nodding, and then led Zhuzhu out of the door.

Zhuzhu was waiting at the door, while Chunhong quickly slipped to the corner of the room and picked up the incense burner. The two met and ran away.

Everyone in the room was talking lively, and few people paid attention to what was going on at the door.

But Mrs. Min is the head of the family, so she naturally has to take care of everything, especially the mother-in-law who is following her, who has ears and eyes in all directions and clearly sees Chunhong "stealing" the incense burner.

The old lady was very angry. The Tai family's mud-legged son was invited to the banquet, and the lady thought highly of him.

I didn't expect that the Tai family would be so shameless that they would do such a disgusting thing in front of everyone!
She couldn't bear it, so she quietly talked to Mrs. Min while Mrs. Min was drinking tea.

Mrs. Min was surprised and looked at Yang Lihua subconsciously, unwilling to believe it in her heart.

Yang Lihua had been waiting for this moment. She nodded to Mrs. Min without leaving a trace, then stood up and walked out.

Mrs. Min's heart skipped a beat, and after thinking for a while she said, "You guys sit down first, I'll go to the kitchen to see how the food and wine are going! There is rose water specially shipped from Shuntian Mansion today, so I'll have a good drink soon."

Everyone responded and told her to hurry over, but be careful that she would be snatched away by the men in the front yard if she was too late.

Of course it was a joke, and everyone laughed along without knowing what was going on.

In the side room, Yang Lihua was hugging her daughter and talking, and Chunhong was following beside her.

A maid stood guarding the door with contempt in her eyes.

Seeing the madam coming, the maid hurriedly stepped forward to express her gratitude, "Madam, someone stole the incense burner and was taken care of by the slaves!"
