Chapter 1015 Find the inner ghost and check the gift list

"As soon as Xixi entered the mansion, she saw the elder sister coming. She wanted to go back and change into decent clothes, but the elder sister said that she had lost the bracelet. I was here to help find it with my servant, and I never left."

Chu Xixi glanced at Chu Yurou who was rushing over, thinking that their mother and daughter had already made plans.

"Oh? Didn't you go back to the room?"

Qu's continued to ask, at this time Chu Yurou led a group of servants over, looked at them, quite puzzled.

"Mother, what happened? Why are all the aunts here?"

Chu Yurou pretended to be puzzled, but in fact she already knew it well.But since it's an act, it has to be done in a decent way, lest Chu Xixi find any clues.

"Yurou, Xixi, you can see for yourself."

Mrs. Qu handed over a red post, which Chu Xixi had seen before. It was the list of betrothal gifts sent by Mrs. Liu. Back then, the housekeeper checked and put the betrothal gifts into the warehouse according to the list.

Chu Yurou took the list, opened it and took a look, only to see that a few items had been specially marked, presumably something went wrong.Otherwise, why did a group of people come over aggressively to ask the crime?
"Mother, what's wrong with this?"

Chu Yurou returned the list to Qu Shi, and Chu Xixi saw it just now, so she didn't have to come over to pretend.

"Yurou, have you seen these specially marked items? This gift list was sent by Liu's house, but when I checked it, I found that these items were missing. After I sent someone to search carefully, I found these items in Xixi's room. So Let me come over and ask, after all, it is Lian Er's dowry gift, and it was sent by the Liu family, your father valued this marriage very much, and mother did not dare to be sloppy. You just stand aside, don't delay the business."

Qu Shi scolded Chu Yurou a few words, and asked Chu Yurou to stand aside.It was obvious that Chu Yurou was told to stay away from Chu Xixi so as not to harm Chi Yu.

"But mother, I—" Chu Yurou was about to say something, but was suddenly interrupted severely by Qu.

"Stand aside, here are all the elders in the family, and there are you who speak and score."

Qu's treatment of Chu Yurou was quite strict, and in the eyes of his family, it made Qu's look a little upright, which really made Chu Xixi feel very funny.

This pair of parents really know how to act, it's so exciting.Even the servants and maids were deceived by their appearance.

But Chu Xixi also roughly understood the matter, and it turned out to be like this.The Qu family's parents are really good at scheming, including the Liu family. Right now, the one who cares most about Chu Manlian's betrothal gift is naturally the Liu family.

If the betrothal gift is wrong, or if it is lost, the Liu family will also be ashamed, let alone a family member. If this matter is spread, it will be a joke.

Seeing Chu Yurou bowed her head and stood aside, leaving her alone to face the accusations of the elders, she felt quite sad.It's all because of my own carelessness, which made Wen's fearful.It's really unfilial.

"Xixi, tell me why you found these things in your room? If Xixi likes them, you can tell me that I can ask your aunt Liu for them. Why do you want to do this? You know, if Liu Aunt reports to the government, but you will be taken to the government for questioning!"

Qu Shi pretended to be magnanimous, and asked Liu Shi for Chu Manlian's dowry for Chu Xixi?Really funny words.Leaving aside whether Chu Xixi likes these things or not, Chu Manlian's dowry alone makes Chu Xixi avoid it.Chu Xixi never bothers to touch anything that has anything to do with Chu Yurou and Chu Manlian!

"Xixi doesn't understand what Aunt Qu means."

Chu Xixi pretended to be stupid, and she didn't leave here as soon as she came back. The servants could see it clearly. If Qu Shi asked, Chu Xixi was not afraid of not being able to find witnesses.

"Is Xixi still pretending not to know? Why is this thing in your room? Didn't you send it back?"

Qu's rather stern appearance, it seems that she really has a bit of the majesty of the wife of the main house.It's a pity that this paper tiger is a paper tiger after all, it's just a fake picture!
"Aunt Qu said, sister Lian'er got married today, Xixi and elder brother sent off together, ordered the dowry list and drank the wedding wine, and then came back. I happened to meet the elder sister, said a few words, and delayed the time. I didn't have time to go back, you see, my clothes are so wrinkled that I didn't even have time to change them."

Chu Xixi tugged on her clothes, but they were quite wrinkled, and this statement was also believable.

"Is that so, Yurou?"

Qu Shi glanced at Chu Yurou, Chu Yurou naturally understood, and immediately stood up and said:
"Yes, mother, the old lady sent me to call my elder brother. When I met my sister, I said a few words. Coincidentally, I lost my bracelet. My sister stayed and helped me find it. After searching for a long time, I couldn't find it. I That's why I took people there to look for it. My sister is looking after her here."

In Chu Yurou's two sentences, the dry cleaning was completely wiped out, and even Chu Xixi couldn't help calling out Chu Yurou for such a clever trick.

"That is to say, you haven't been here since you left, and you haven't seen whether Xixi is still here, have you?"

Qu looked at Chu Yurou, only seeing Chu Yurou stammering, although Chu Yurou didn't admit it, everyone knew her attitude, it seemed that it was indeed the case.

After seeing Chu Yurou's attitude, Chu Xixi knew in her heart that Chu Yurou was determined not to tie herself down.I think I can only save myself.

"Although Xixi is not by my sister's side, I have been looking here with my family all along."

Chu Xixi turned her head to look at the servants, but her expression immediately changed.

At some point, those servants were quite far away from Chu Xixi, and they all acted as if they had nothing to do with them.

"Have you all seen that Miss San is here all the time?"

Qu Shi looked at them with a warning voice.

Those servants looked at me and I looked at you, but no one answered in the end.They all kept their heads down and didn't speak.

Seeing them like this, Chu Xixi knew in her heart that this was another arrangement of the Qu mother and daughter.Leaving aside whether these servants were afraid of Qu's power, or whether they got rewards secretly, in short, they can't be expected to speak for themselves.

Seeing the appearance of the servants, Wen's became anxious, and couldn't help but stepped forward to ask these people: "You guys are talking, isn't Xixi always by your side? Why don't you say it?"

This time, Mrs. Qu didn't stop her. If the servants didn't speak up, it wouldn't be easy to convict Chu Xixi.At the side, Mrs. Liu was also waiting. If she had the sole discretion to make the decision, Chu Taiping might not be able to explain it when she asked in the future.

"Well, ma'am, we've been stooping for something, and we haven't really noticed."

The servants had no choice but to stand up and say something.With these words, Qu's heart immediately fell to the ground.

Look at what Chu Xixi has to turn around!

Chu Xixi looked at them with bitterness in her heart.

Qu's is the main wife of the Chu Mansion. Compared with her, the other wives are just concubines with no power. It really isn't worthwhile to offend a powerful lady for a concubine.

These family servants have been in the mansion for many years, and Qu's methods are more or less familiar. Right now, it is better to protect oneself wisely and not to get involved in right and wrong.

"What happened here? Why is it so lively?"

Suddenly a voice came over, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Turning around, I saw Chu Taiping walking over with a few servants.

Obviously, Chu Taiping must have received the news and was anxious to come over.
