Black-bellied Xianggong: Cute wife is not easy to mess with

Chapter 257 was arrested ([-])

The morning star in the sky lit up and turned fish-belly, and the small courtyard on the outskirts of the city began to get busy. Under the command of Liu Da and Liu Er, they loaded the canopy bed, low cabinet, desk and other things into the carriage one by one, and began to march towards the city. .

After entering the city gate, Shi Tianci, who was waiting here, quietly jumped into the car, and cupped his fists at Liu Da and Liu Eryi: "Two big brothers."

Liu Da didn't have time to exchange pleasantries, so he got straight to the point, lowered his voice and asked, "Have all the arrangements been made?"

Shi Tianci nodded, and said: "Ms. Kang and Ms. Li have already woken up. When I went out, they were discussing where to go shopping. I guess they would have already left when we got to the other hospital."

Liu Da tilted his head and said to Liu Er: "Tell the carriage to go slowly. Shopkeeper Shi will go down to check the situation later to make sure they are not in the other courtyard. Let's go in again, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

Shi Tianci sneaked a glance at Liu Da, and said with a sneer, "I'm no longer the shopkeeper, brother Liu, don't call me that anymore, lest it make people laugh."

Liu Da turned his head, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "When you help the concubine complete this matter, are you afraid that there will be no shopkeeper? I'm afraid that I will directly give you a shop as the owner, there will be."

Shi Tianci's eyes lit up, and he declined: "I don't have that ability. Under the protection of the princess, I am satisfied with earning a little money to support my family."

Before the matter was completed, Liu Da didn't have much thought to say anything else to him, and soon turned to the main topic, asking: "How familiar is your wife with our young lady? Can you find the tiger pendant from those belongings?" Come? Speaking of it, our eldest young mistress is really good at hiding things, we almost turned everything upside down, but we just couldn't find the tiger pendant."

Shi Tianci smiled and said: "My wife and your eldest mistress have known each other since they were young, but the one who knows her best is my concubine, Aunt Mu, she is your eldest mistress' cousin. She was raised in their house, and after living in the same yard for so many years, no one knows her better than her."

When he was in Yangxing County, he heard that the niece of the official family of Mu Si married a poor ghost as a concubine. At that time, Liu Da didn't believe it, but he didn't expect it to be true. He was surprised for a while, and then asked: "Mu Aunt, the one who came to Beijing with you and always quarreled with your wife?"

Shi Tianci blushed, and said: "Yes, it's her, she is outspoken, she will inevitably argue with my wife, but she is a very nice person."

Sure enough, men are partial to concubines, Liu Da smiled understandingly: "Our first young mistress's cousin is naturally not bad, and we will all rely on her to find Hu Pei later."

"Brother, don't worry." Shi Tianci repeatedly assured, "Yesterday she almost stayed up all night, and she almost drew the blueprint of your eldest and youngest mistress's boudoir."

Liu Da asked eagerly: "Can you think of a place?"

Shi Tianci smiled and said, "There is no other place but that bed."

"Bed?" Liu Da was full of disbelief, "We have opened all the hidden drawers of the bed, where is the tiger pendant?"

Shi Tianci laughed and said, "Aside from the young mistress herself, only my Aunt Mu knows about that place. I think the tiger pendant should be hidden there."

"Could it be that there is a hidden drawer on the bed that we haven't discovered?" General Liu was dubious.

Shi Tianci said confidently: "I made two of that bed at the beginning, and they were exactly the same. One was given to your young mistress, and the other was in my Aunt Mu's room. Do you think my Aunt Mu knew about it?" ?”

Only then did Liu Da's face show joy, and he said happily: "It seems that we are looking for someone this time, and we are really looking for the right one."

Liu Er also came over, patted Shi Tianci on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "As long as we can find the tiger pendant, our brothers will be promoted, and your benefits will definitely be indispensable."

This is what I want!Shi Tianci tried his best to conceal the excitement in his heart, and said: "Little brother, I would like to thank the two big brothers for their support. From now on, the little brother will follow the two big brothers."

"It's easy to say, easy to say." Liu Er laughed loudly.

The carriage traversed the entire capital, and finally stopped outside the alley.Without Liu Da's reminder, Shi Tianci jumped down first and went back to the other courtyard to inquire about the situation.As he expected, Kang Jingru and Li Yueniang had already gone out - they always went out very early in order to be able to shop all day and not waste time.He sent a servant to report to Liu Da and Liu Er, and he went to the back to inform Mu Qinglian.

Mu Qinglian was already ready, and when she saw him, she asked, "Are you there?"

Shi Tianci nodded and said with a smile, "This time it's all up to you."

Mu Qinglian proudly puffed her chest out, took a few steps forward, and deliberately kept Bai Yuhe behind.

Bai Yuhe was full of annoyance, but she didn't want to get angry at this pass, so she had to go around her, walked up to Shi Tianci, and claimed the credit first: "I have already informed Chen's mother that I have tidied up the house, that is, the two rooms at the east end. The gauze is freshly pasted, allowing light to pass through, but you can’t see what’s inside.”

"You are the most reassuring thing to do." Shi Tianci praised her.

What's the use of reassuring people, we'll have to look at her later, Mu Qinglian curled her lips.

Soon, Liu Dashi brought in the belongings and began to move to the two rooms at the east end, and told Chen's mother: "These are all the things of the young lady, be careful not to break them, and don't ask the young lady for help." Cross."

While Liu Da was talking, he deliberately raised a letter in his hand and said, "I'll send a letter to the young lady to tell her that the things have arrived." As he spoke, he turned to Shi Tianci: "Please ask shopkeeper Shi for help." Take inventory and see if anything is missing."

Shi Tianci was considered to be Mu Qingwan's natal family, and Mother Chen had no doubts about him, so she let him and Mu Qinglian go to the east house.

Because there were countless pairs of eyes staring at the other courtyard, Shi Tianci couldn't close the door, so he had to stand in front of the door to watch. Mu Qinglian went in alone, without looking at anything, and went straight to the bunk bed, pressing the head of the bed with one hand, Touching the drawer with one hand, the drawer quickly popped out under the pressure, but in her hand, there was no jade pendant at all, only the hard and cold bottom of the drawer.

what happened?She quickly poked her head to look, but saw that the dark drawer was empty and there was nothing.

How is this possible?The layout of Mu Qingwan's room is almost the same as hers, there is no other place where things can be hidden without being discovered by others.She thought she had made a mistake, so she simply lay down on the bed, and then opened the drawer, but what popped up was still this, and it was still empty.

Does Mu Qingwan have secrets elsewhere?Mu Qinglian became anxious and turned around the bed, but still found nothing.She started to check the cabinets and desks again, but still couldn't find the tiger pendant.

Shi Tianci didn't see her coming out for a while, and he was also anxious, so he walked in and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter? Did you find anything?"
