Chapter 108: Something Goes Wrong
After the guys left, the shop became a little empty, but after the eldest brother and the second brother came back from the hot pot restaurant in the evening, the house suddenly became lively.
Song Xinshu thought about when to go to the Song Mansion to bring Xiao Mu back, and the family would always have a reunion during the New Year.
Although I was busy preparing for the New Year, I didn't have to get up early every day to prepare things in the store, so I was naturally more relaxed than usual.
And there have been a lot of happy events at home recently, and the whole family is happy every day, and they don't feel busy at all.
On the fifth day of the lunar month, Song Xinshu and Su Qing went to the Song Mansion together, wanting to bring the little sister back, Su Qing walked beside her with something and said: "Xiao Mu doesn't want to come back, now the family situation is better, if Xiao Mu comes back, he can go to the school to study." ”
Song Xinshu sighed slightly, told Su Qing about the previous events, and said: "Xiao Mu has grown up now, and she will make her own decisions, and she is also living well in Song Mansion, so her father and mother said that it is up to her ideas." ”
Although Su Qing didn't understand a little, he didn't say anything, and when he arrived at the gate of the Song Mansion, a maid was waiting at the door, and walked in with the two of them.
Two days ago, Song Xinshu sent a letter to someone, saying that he wanted to take Xiao Mu home for the New Year, and the Song Mansion also asked someone to pass the word, saying that he asked Song Xinshu to pick up someone in two days.
The maid took the things that Su Qing was carrying, and then took the two to the warm pavilion in the west courtyard, where Mrs. Song was taking Young Master Yu and Xiao Mu to play, and Miss Song was sitting at the table and reading a book of poems.
When Mrs. Song saw them coming in, she smiled and said, "You guys are here, Shopkeeper Song, who is this?" ”
Song Xinshu also responded with a smile: "This is my husband." ”
Su Qin also greeted Mrs. Song, and Xiao Mu ran over and took Song Xinshu's hand and said, "Third sister, you're here, hello brother-in-law!" ”
Mrs. Song said: "Xiao Mu's things will be packed up after they are done, just waiting for you to come today!" ”
Song Xinshu took Xiao Mu's hand and subconsciously went to see Young Master Yu, only to see him holding a toy in his hand, looking at them with his mouth pursed, without saying a word.
Xiao Mu said to Song Xinshu: "Third sister, I have already told Young Master Yu that I will come back after the New Year, if he is not angry, I will come back early." ”
Looking at these two children, Song Xinshu also felt cute, touched Xiao Mu's hair and said, "Then you go and say goodbye to Young Master Yu, and we'll leave." ”
After Xiao Mu walked over and said goodbye to Young Master Yu, he saluted Mrs. Song and Miss Song again, turned around and came back to take Song Xinshu's hand, and was about to go to Xiao Mu's room to get his luggage, when a gorgeously dressed woman pushed open the door and walked in.
Everyone present was stunned for a moment, not knowing what was going on.
Miss Song was the first to open her mouth and said, "Second aunt, what's the matter?" You rush in like this, and it doesn't matter if we have guests or not. ”
The second aunt clasped her hands to her chest and said, "It's almost the New Year, how can you talk and not grow at all, if I come a little late, our things will be taken away!" ”
Mrs. Song has always been not on good terms with her second aunt, usually for the sake of Master Song's face, she doesn't care about the second aunt, but when she saw her running into her house and making a big noise, she still frowned slightly.
"What has been taken from our house?" Mrs. Song asked puzzled.
Song Xinshu saw that Mrs. Song was going to deal with her family affairs, so he said to Mrs. Song: "Mrs. Song, take us and leave first." ”
After finishing speaking, she was about to pull Xiao Mu away, but the second aunt suddenly stopped in front of them and said, "You can't go, me."
My family lost something, and each of you is suspicious, if you leave like this, how can you tell it clearly then! ”
Su Qing remembered that Song Xinshu was pregnant, and immediately stood in front of her to protect her, for fear that others would collide with her.
The second aunt was a little stunned for a while when she saw that Su Qing was tall and tall, but she still firmly stopped in front of them and did not allow them to leave.
"You mean, we took your stuff?"
Su Qing lowered his eyes and looked at the arrogant and domineering woman in front of him, his face was expressionless, and his eyes were cold.
"We've only been in for half an hour, and we haven't left this house, so why do you say we took your things?" Song Xinshu said behind Su Qing's back.
The second aunt saw that Su Qing was not easy to mess with, but Song Xinshu really looked like a bully, so she said to Song Xinshu: "You haven't been to other places, but you don't know about this little girl you are leading?" ”
Song Xinshu listened to her words, and immediately became anxious, and said loudly: "You must have evidence to speak, if you say this, I will sue you for slander!" ”
The second aunt laughed disdainfully and said, "That girl will seduce people at a young age, who knows what she will do?" ”
Song Xinshu ignored that she was now in the Song Mansion, let go of Xiao Mu's hand and rolled up her sleeves and was about to step forward to reason with her, she felt a fire burning from her heart, and it was about to erupt from her throat.
But Su Qing stopped her, he walked in front of the second aunt, stared at the second aunt with bottomless eyes and said, "Evidence, you come up with evidence, otherwise you won't be able to get out of this house." ”
Mrs. Song didn't know what Su Qing was doing, but seeing that his temperament and momentum were different from ordinary people, she was afraid that things would deteriorate and it would be difficult to clean up, so she stepped forward and pulled the second aunt aside and said, "What evidence do you have that Xiao Mu stole your money, you are talking so empty, if the master knows, you will not allow it." ”
The second aunt still held her hands in front of her chest and said: "I obviously saw her sneaking into my house that day, and when she came out, a gold ingot in my house was gone. ”
At this time, Xiao Yu, who had not spoken, rushed up, raised his fist and put it on the second aunt's body, and shouted loudly: "You bad guy, you bad guy, you frame Xiao Mu, I'll kill you!" ”
The second aunt was startled, and hurriedly pushed Xiao Yu with one hand, and Miss Song also hurriedly came up and hugged Xiao Yu away.
Song Xinshu pulled Xiao Mu over, squatted down and asked, "Have you ever entered her room?" ”
Xiao Mu bit her lip tightly and didn't speak, Song Xinshu became even more anxious when she saw this, pulled the corner of Xiao Mu's clothes and said, "Did you say you have ever entered her room?" ”
Su Qing also squatted down and hugged Song Xinshu's shoulders and said, "Watch your body and speak slowly." ”
Song Xinshu calmed down his mood, slowed down his voice and said to Xiao Mu: "If there is, there will be, if there is not, there will be none, you tell the third sister honestly, it's okay." ”
Xiao Mu looked at Song Xinshu, looked up at the others, nodded and said, "I've been to the second aunt's room." ”
The second aunt snorted coldly and said: "Look at what I said, it's obvious that she took it, and she won't admit it, if you don't pay it back, don't think about leaving the Song Mansion today!" ”
Song Xinshu let himself ignore the words of the second aunt as much as possible, but still looked at Xiao Mu and said, "You tell the third sister, what are you doing in someone else's room?" ”
Xiao Mu bit her lip and said, "That day, I went to the small kitchen to get pastries for Young Master Yu, and at this time, the master and the housekeeper came in, and asked me to bring a plate of pastries to the second aunt. ”
Madame Song said to the maid, "Go and call the housekeeper." ”
After a while, the maid and the housekeeper came in, and Mrs. Song sat on a chair, folded her hands on her knees, and asked the housekeeper, "Did you go to the small kitchen with the master that day?" ”
The housekeeper said: "One day my lord and I passed by the small kitchen, and it happened that the lord wanted to eat osmanthus peach gum, so he walked in to take a look, who knew that he met Xiao Mu." ”
"Did the old man ask Xiao Mu to send snacks to the second aunt?"
The housekeeper nodded and said, "Yes, the master said that the mung bean cake is the second aunt's favorite food, so he asked Xiao Mu to send a copy, but the master in the kitchen is also there, and he can also testify." ”
After the housekeeper finished speaking, Mrs. Song looked at the second aunt and said, "You hear, it was the master who asked Xiao Mu to deliver snacks." ”
The second aunt rolled her eyes and said, "Then it can't be said that she didn't take my things, why did the gold disappear after she entered my room, and she specially picked me to send snacks when I was away, but I really have a heart!" ”
Song Xinshu and Su Qing have given up communicating with their second aunt, and they can't be reasonable with her at all, and they are angry for no reason.
She said directly to Mrs. Song: "It's really unreasonable to judge that Xiao Mu took the money just because she entered the room, and ask Mrs. Song to take a clear look, so as not to ruin Xiao Mu's reputation." ”
Mrs. Song didn't want to do this, but her temperament has always been gentle and glutinous, and she also looks like a big lady in this house, and sometimes she is not as sharp as her daughter.
But in front of outsiders, Mrs. Song still cleared her throat and said, "I believe that Xiao Mu will not do such a thing, second aunt, if you look for it carefully, maybe it fell somewhere." ”
As soon as the second aunt wanted to speak, she heard the sound of the door being pushed open, and everyone's eyes looked towards the door.
I saw a middle-aged man in a robe walk in, sat down beside Mrs. Song with a serious face, and said, "Why are you so noisy, what happened?" ”
Mrs. Song told what happened just now, and at this time, the second aunt also changed her appearance, and said to Master Song in a delicate voice: "Master, that's all my savings, I took it out that day and was just going to buy something for the New Year, but this little girl came into my house for a trip, and the money was gone, master, you must be the master for me!" ”
Master Song glanced at Xiao Mu, then at Song Xinshu and Su Qing, and said to the second aunt: "It is true that I asked Xiao Mu to send you mung bean cake, I see that Xiao Mu has been in our Song Mansion for a long time, not like a person who can do such a thing, think about it again." Did you forget somewhere? ”
The second aunt gently slapped Master Song's arm and said, "Master, you are eccentric, then you won't help others in charge?" ”
