The whole family listened to my cry and started killing me while I held a milk bottle and ate melons

Li Gui lowered his head, his eyes evasive, "I...I just can't sleep at night, so..."

Chen La snorted coldly, "You're lying! The storage room is so far away from where you live. How could you run so far away if you couldn't sleep? Besides, you were sneaky at the time and didn't do anything at first sight. Good thing."

His gaze remained on Li Gui, his eyes full of inquiry.

Nanny Li took a step forward, her whole body directly enveloped Li Gui, and he lowered his head lower.

"Madam, I suggest you investigate this matter carefully. My intuition tells me that he alone cannot complete it. There should be accomplices."

Her voice was very soft, but every word struck Li Gui's heart.

He was visibly panicking, no! If it is really investigated, Xiao Yuan will definitely be involved.

He suddenly raised his head, looked at He Lianzhen intently, and then knelt down and moved forward a short distance, "Madam, I just got interested in making money for a moment, thinking that no one would find out. I know I was wrong. Please punish me, madam!" His voice was loud, his eyes were firm, and there was a hint of pleading in his tone.

[You change your story so quickly, it’s hard not to make people suspicious, young man. 】

Hua Sheng glanced at him casually.

Playing leisurely and minding his own business.

He Lianzhen put his right hand to his lips and said nothing. After a while, he leaned forward and said, "Sometimes you say you are just passing by, and sometimes you are obsessed with it. Does it mean that what you say is what it is?"

She just looked at Li Gui with a very casual tone.

Li Gui said anxiously: "Madam, you are really a slave and have nothing to do with other people. Just punish one slave!"

Xiao Yuan, who was standing at the edge of the crowd, couldn't help but hold her forehead. She knew that Li Gui had no brain, but she didn't know that he was so brainless.

He changed his words so quickly that anyone with a discerning eye could see at a glance what his purpose was.

Originally, they were just talking about it, and there was no concrete witness or physical evidence. In the end, Li Gui had to stand in front of others and tell them that he actually had another person.

She sighed slowly and felt a headache. If she hadn't happened to be bumped into by Li Gui, she wouldn't have been with him.

She had long been optimistic that the amount of silver charcoal was not much. If the master asked, she would just say that she had forgotten it and left these things there.

Over time, it can easily get damaged.

This winter has just passed, and there is no chance to use charcoal in the house. According to the practice of previous years, the stored charcoal will not be taken out until the next winter.

But after such a long gap, she had the idea to sell it now, and later she would find some things to make up for it.

Anyway, the charcoal was given to the maids and wives in the house, so they couldn't use any good stuff. Even if they knew something was wrong, they wouldn't dare to ask the master about it.

But who knows, the weather is supposed to be getting warmer, but it suddenly rains heavily for several days, and the night is as cold as winter.

A heavy rain disrupted all her plans.

I didn't even have time to use the money I got from the sale, and I didn't have time to find low-quality charcoal, so things like this happened.

She pursed her lips tightly, hiding her entire body from the crowd.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. If she took this opportunity to escape now, how likely would it be?

His eyes looked around involuntarily.

【Someone is getting ready to run away. ]    The little guy changed his position out of boredom. He stepped on his bamboo-like arms with his feet, hooked his hands together, relaxed and released them, and half-squinted his eyes, which felt very comfortable.

He Lianzhen glanced at him sideways and said slowly: "I'll give you another chance to talk properly." Her tone was very indifferent.

Li Gui calmed down and slowly stopped panicking. He lay prone on the ground.

"Look up and look at me."

When Li Gui heard this, he quickly adjusted his breathing, slowly raised his head, and said word by word: "It was an accidental night. When I was passing by the storage room, I suddenly saw that it was full of things. I just wanted to go and have a look.”

After a pause, he continued: "But at that time, I saw a lot of charcoal piled there, so I thought, maybe I could exchange this for some money, so I secretly took some and sold it outside, and it turned out that it was really Someone would buy it, and later, the slave would slowly remove all the charcoal."

The voice became weaker and weaker, "Including Yintan, the same goes for Yintan. Yintan sells better. Although there is only a small part, they are rushing to buy it."

These are all things Xiao Yuan told him, but he didn't expect that they would actually come into use.

He actually wanted to turn around and take another look at Xiao Yuan, but if he turned back at this time, it would be too obvious and Xiao Yuan could easily be implicated.

Now I have made up my mind that as long as I insist that he is the only one from beginning to end, I can solve this matter perfectly.

Xiao Yuan knew where the things were, and he secretly hid some of them for Xiao Yuan. When the time came, he would tell Xiao Yuan secretly, and Xiao Yuan would be able to have enough food and clothing.

Helianzhen knew all this from Hua Sheng, so she now had a good idea.

She looked at Xiao Zhi and then at Hua Sheng. Xiao Zhi understood instantly and immediately pushed and pulled Ru Zhu, "Madam, the young lady is a little hungry. Nu and Ru Zhu will go and feed the young lady something."

Although I don’t know why the madam suddenly doesn’t want the young lady to continue here, she is right to follow the madam’s wishes.

Helian Zhen was instantly satisfied with Xiao Zhi's understanding and nodded directly.

[I’m not hungry, mother, I’m not hungry. ] Hua Sheng muttered in his heart.

When Hua Sheng could no longer be seen, He Lianzhen waved his hand and pointed at Xiao Yuan with a cold face, "Bring her to the front."

In the direction she pointed, everyone immediately looked back and saw Xiao Yuan who was acting strangely.

Xiao Yuan, who had planned to leave quietly, was suddenly pointed at. She turned her head stiffly and saw everyone looking at her.

Her eyes widened involuntarily, and when she was about to run away, someone was already grabbing his arms and lifting her up.

Li Gui finally adjusted his mentality, but when he saw Xiao Yuan being brought over, he was completely shattered.

His breathing was rapid, his pupils suddenly dilated, and then he quickly lowered his head.

He didn't know that all his actions were in the eyes of Nanny Li.

Xiao Yuan knelt down tremblingly, "Madam." He didn't dare to raise his head at all.

I was surprised. I had obviously made very small movements, how could I be discovered?

He Lianzhen: "Look up, what are you doing with your heads so low?"

Xiao Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and when he raised his head, his face already looked innocent. (End of chapter)
