Detective in the Red Chamber

Mrs. Xing interrupted her faltering rudely, pushed the box back, and said in a mournful voice: "We women can only love ourselves when we reach this point—don't worry, this is Xintao In exchange, I have never used it.”

"I didn't mean that!"

Aunt Xue was holding the box, feeling that it was too hot to touch, and when she was about to refuse, Mrs. Xing walked to the door quickly, lifted the curtain and said, "Qiu Ju, help your wife to go to rest soon. "

This time, Aunt Xue was very frightened, she subconsciously stuffed the box into the sleeve.

When she realized it and wanted to throw it back on the table, Qiu Ju walked in.

Aunt Xue couldn't get off the tiger, so she had no choice but to close the box as hard as she could, and then glared at Mrs. Xing in embarrassment.

Madam Xing suppressed her smile, came over and gave her a push, and urged: "Okay, hurry back and have a good rest."

The word 'rest' was highlighted, obviously referring to something else.

Aunt Xue couldn't contain her shame and indignation, but she could only follow the trend and leave the main room, and walked towards Hengwuyuan with a lot of worries.

Before she could figure out how to deal with this embarrassing thing, two people suddenly appeared from the sidelines, but they were Li Wan and Suyun's master and servant.

"Qiu Ju, you came just in time!"

From a long distance away, I heard Li Wan anxiously say: "I didn't know where my golden step was left just now. Quickly help Suyun to find it with a lantern!"

Before Qiu Ju could answer, she stepped forward and took Aunt Xue's arm again, and said unquestionably, "Go, Auntie is here to support me."

Qiu Ju glanced at Aunt Xue, seeing that she didn't make a sound to stop her, so she followed Suyun to the same place.

"Where did things go?"

"Who knows, I just came out of the second wife's room, and when I arrived at the gate of the garden, I found that the hairpin was gone..."

"Then let's go all the way back from the gate of the second wife's garden..."

The two chattered, but they walked farther and farther away.

But at this moment, Aunt Xue's complexion darkened incessantly, she frowned and said, "Brother Zhu, daughter-in-law, have you really lost your hair?"

"Don't dare to lie to my aunt."

Li Wan bowed slightly, bowed his head and said: "In the past few days, I finally figured it out. Seeing Brother Lan grow up, how can I, as a mother, ruin his reputation and future for my own selfishness?"

Speaking of this, she raised her head and said resolutely: "So I'm going to make a break with Erlang Sun Jia right now, and from now on I won't have any contact with you until death!"

After hearing this, Aunt Xue hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and said repeatedly: "That's right, that's right! It's okay to make mistakes for a while, we can't make mistakes again and again!"

When she said this, she didn't feel anything.

It just fell into Li Wan's ears, but there was a bit of 'hypocrisy', so even the guilt in his heart was slightly relieved.

He refused to get up at the moment, but pleaded with the situation: "Nevertheless, my niece and daughter-in-law are still in love with him. I'm afraid they won't be able to open their mouths after seeing each other - he is in awe of his aunt. If you are there to help , I dare not act recklessly."

Only then did Aunt Xue suddenly understand.

Then he hesitated, not knowing whether he should respond or not.

Seeing that she was uncertain for a while, Li Wan wrapped her arms around her arms and begged again: "I beg my aunt to help you to the end..."

Aunt Xue's expression changed, and finally she let out a long sigh: "Forget it, I'll accompany you for a while—but there are other people in his courtyard, so I'm afraid it's inconvenient..."

"Don't worry, aunt, I let Suyun assume Ping'er's name and dismissed all those people."

The relationship between Ping'er and Sun Shaozong was already known to everyone in the family, so no one would suspect her name.

Besides, even if someone really doubted it, would they still dare to ask Ping'er face to face?

As soon as Aunt Xue heard this, she knew that Li Wan had planned a long time ago. Thinking about what she had done before, she seemed to want to drag herself into the water on purpose, so she couldn't help but hesitated again.

"what?"

At this moment, Li Wan wondered, "What's in Auntie's sleeve? Why does it seem like a wooden box is hidden?"

"No...nothing!"

Aunt Xue trembled, and hurriedly shook her off. She was afraid that she would ask what happened, so she blurted out and urged: "Let's go there quickly, so as not to delay for a long time, Qiu Ju and the others will look for it again."

Seeing her flustered appearance, Li Wan was naturally suspicious.

It's just that at this juncture, how dare she make extra troubles?

The lantern was extinguished immediately, and Aunt Xue was led to the small courtyard where Sun Shaozong was located in the dark.

Stretching out his hand to push open the half-hidden door, Li Wan cautiously peeped in and saw that only the light was on inside, so he was relieved.

Turning around, she saw Aunt Xue's face was timid, and she couldn't help but secretly sneered.

During the day, he obviously rushed to get in front of Sun Jia Erlang, but when the matter came to an end, he hesitated again.

But she didn't know that Aunt Xue only wanted to flirt, she never thought of giving her body away.

Li Wan slandered inwardly, but also put on a hesitant posture on his face: "If Auntie regrets it, why... let's just go back and forget it."

After saying that, he backed out again, making gestures to close the courtyard door again.

"do not!"

Aunt Xue supported the door panel subconsciously, and whispered: "How can all previous efforts be wasted at this time? Forget it, I will go in with you for a walk."

Said, hesitantly crossed the threshold.

Bang!

Who would have thought that as soon as she stepped into the courtyard, she heard a muffled sound behind her, followed by another click.

Aunt Xue looked back in astonishment, only to see that the courtyard door had been closed again, but Li Wan was nowhere to be seen in the courtyard.

"You... what are you doing?!"

Aunt Xue suddenly turned pale with fright, stepped forward and pushed the door vigorously, but only heard the rattle of the brass lock, but how could it be pushed open?

At this time, I heard Li Wan reminding me from outside the door: "Auntie, please keep your voice down, if you attract others, you may not be able to clear up what you say."

"you……"

"It doesn't matter if my aunt blames me or thanks me in the future, my niece and daughter-in-law will bear it all—but if you don't have a handle on me, how can I rest assured?"

As he spoke, Li Wan bowed gracefully outside the door, and then walked away resolutely.

"Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law, Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law..."

Aunt Xue didn't dare to yell loudly, so she could only put her mouth on the crack of the door and whisper eagerly.

However, these actions did not make Li Wan look back, instead Sun Shaozong's voice came from the back room:

"Who? Who's out there?"

Aunt Xue turned around in horror, and saw a bunch of candles lit up in the living room. Immediately after the door curtain was lifted, Sun Shaozong came out wearing a coat and holding a candlestick.

"Aunt Xue's family?"

It was night and the moon was in full bloom, so Sun Shaozong recognized the identity of the person at the door just a few steps away.

It's just that he didn't understand what Aunt Xue's intention was when she came here in the middle of the night.

Is it...

Same as Li Wan back then?

And Aunt Xue was even more flustered when she heard Sun Shaozong reveal her identity. Her plump body was pressed tightly against the door panel, and she said in a trembling voice, "I... I... am Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law..."

It turned out that Li Wan still hadn't given up on that plan.

It's just that she doesn't know what method she used to trick Aunt Xue over - seeing her flustered look, she probably didn't want to throw herself into her arms.

As soon as I thought of this, I heard another crackling sound, but it was a long wooden box that fell out of Aunt Xue's sleeve.

The wooden box was knocked on the ground, and a cylindrical object popped out from inside, rolling all the way to Sun Shaozong.

This is……

Looking at it by candlelight and moonlight, Sun Shaozong suddenly changed his mind.

But I saw that the object did not know what was carved, the whole body reflected the black and yellow color, but the shape was no different from the man's dust root.

Come to find yourself with this thing in your arms, is it because you are afraid that your things won't stand the test?

While Sun Shaozong was speechless, he couldn't help fighting between heaven and man.

But at this moment, Aunt Xue's mind was blank. She opened her mouth wide and stared at the object on the ground, as if she wanted to swallow it whole, but her pupils gradually lost focus...

Chapter 785 Lee

The previous chapter made complaints about broken chapters. Do you really think that you can be in the front and see some details?╮╰╭

The moon is hazy.

Two lanterns stepped out of the corridor one after the other, and the first one was raised high, reflecting Qiu Ju's anxious face.

She was poking her head around and looking around, Suyun also caught up behind her, and complained loudly: "What are you doing so fast? You are not afraid of falling out of good or bad, this fool!"

Qiu Ju turned around in a jerk, stomped her feet and said, "I'm still talking! It's all because of you procrastinating along the way, which made our wife wait anxiously."

Under her staring eyes, Suyun inevitably felt a little guilty, but knowing that he would never dare to show his feet right now, so he bit the bullet and smiled: "Why are you so anxious, can you lose your concubine in this deep house? Follow me." , probably went back with our grandma."

"What are you waiting for!"

Qiu Ju said urgently: "Go to your house quickly and have a look. When I came out, the girl gave me thousands of warnings, let me take good care of my wife."

If Suyun was more shrewd, he might have heard some implication from this sentence.

As a matter of fact, after that day, Xue Baochai noticed that her mother was abnormal, and after insinuating twice, but to no avail, she quietly told the people below to take care of her carefully, not to leave her side for a moment.

If not, Qiu Ju wouldn't be so nervous.

However, right now Suyun is only thinking about completing the errand that Li Wan gave her, how could she think of this?

Feeling uneasy at the moment, she accompanied Qiu Ju back to Daoxiang Village.

Seeing the front door of the main room, Su Yun seemed to be talking and whispering in the room, heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and ordered: "I'll go in first and see if my aunt is inside."

Qiu Ju naturally caught a glimpse of two figures in front of the window, and she was secretly relieved. At this point in time, Aunt Xue was the only one who could sit and laugh with Li Wan.

Therefore, she stopped urging her and just stayed outside the door politely.

Not long after, I saw Suyun coming out again, complaining full of complaints: "I said that my aunt must come to our house, okay, you don't have to go in, go back and tell your girls, my aunt is here today Rest."

"This"

Qiu Ju was a little hesitant when she heard the words, and when she saw the door curtain lifted, Li Wan poked her head out from inside and scolded with a smile: "Why, is there still a man-eating tiger hiding here? Go back and let Baochai know. Just say that I forcefully prevent my aunt from leaving!"

She even took the initiative to come forward, so what can Qiu Ju do as a maid?

I had no choice but to turn back to Hengwuyuan alone with a lantern.

Seeing her back disappearing outside the gate, both the master and the servant breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, then Li Wan winked and asked Suyun to lock the gate, while he returned the gift directly.

But it was empty inside. How could there be Aunt Xue?

Not far from the candlestick, however, hangs a palm-sized human silhouette.

Li Wan stepped forward to take off the silhouette, ignited it with a candle and burned it to ashes, then crushed it with a broom, and swept it into the flower bed outside the door.

At this time, Suyun also locked the door and rushed over. As soon as she entered the room, she slapped her chest up and down, and said: "I was scared to death, I was scared to death! Fortunately, she didn't see the flaw just now."

There was not much joy on Li Wan's face.

Putting the broom back into the corner, he was in a daze for a while, and then he ordered: "When the fourth watch is over, you will go and bring the concubine back."

This was something that had been discussed a long time ago, but Suyun hesitated for a moment while still in shock, and then reluctantly nodded in agreement.

Then the master and servant fell into a long silence.

In fact, after Suyun's embarrassment passed, she faintly became a little excited, but seeing Li Wan's pretty cold face, she didn't dare to open her mouth.

But as time went by, she couldn't hold back anymore.

So he asked cautiously: "Grandma, if it's Second Master Sun and his concubine, and nothing happens in the end, what should we do next?"

Li Wan shook his head, and said listlessly: "What we want is an excuse, not to catch the rape in bed. As long as she enters the yard, nothing will happen, and our goal will be achieved."

Suyun was still a little puzzled at the beginning, but when he thought about it carefully, he suddenly became enlightened.

Regardless of whether the two of them had anything to do with each other in that courtyard, it's already hard to tell if the lonely man and widow were alone in a room at night.

Thinking about it, Suyun felt a sudden chill in his heart.
