Quick Wear: The Bad Girl is Reborn and No Longer Confused
Chapter 414 The Maid Who Pushes Away 20
"Wow~ So sweet, even sweeter than the ones sent to the mansion."
Li Zhuangtou, who was accompanying him, turned pale upon hearing this and immediately bowed and said, "Madam, Young Madam, Miss, I have always selected the best to send to the mansion and have absolutely not pocketed anything."
"Don't be nervous, Manager Li. Ruyi is just a novelty. I know your sincerity. Ruzhi, Manager Li is careful and conscientious in his work. Please give me your appreciation."
"Yes, ma'am."
It was already noon when they finished their meal. Seeing the tired faces of the three people, Xu Tao canceled two activities. After a short nap, he flew a kite and played some games before taking a hot spring bath. Then, he filled his stomach and went to visit the Hundred Flowers Festival in the evening.
The three masters had no objection to the next itinerary, and after knowing the gathering time, they returned to the yard to rest.
Compared to their own happy life, the Xu family was in a state of gloom. Old Lady Xu and Xu Sanzhu had been arrested and had not yet been rescued.
Seeing that her father-in-law had no intention of saving the man, Xu Laosan's stupid wife took her three strong but simple-minded sons and went to the county government office to seek justice. She didn't even give any benefits to the yamen runners and just wanted to go in.
Of course they are unwilling to do so. They have already been ordered by their superiors to suffer for a few days. If the visitor is sensible, it would be fine to meet him twice.
As a result, these four people didn't know what was wrong with them. They were so arrogant outside the prison, making a lot of noise and provocation. The bailiffs fulfilled their wishes and locked them up together.
The mother and son who went in were dumbfounded. How could things be different from what they expected? Shouldn't the yamen runners let them in because they were afraid that things would get out of hand? Although they were in there now, they wanted to take people out, not get themselves involved.
Xia He and his wife waited outside the prison for more than half an hour, but when no one came out, they felt relieved and walked towards the village with a smile on their faces.
At first, Old Man Xu didn't pay much attention to his third daughter-in-law and three grandsons, thinking that the four of them had gone to work in the fields. But when it got dark, he waited and waited but no one came back, and he immediately had bad thoughts in his mind.
"Eldest brother and his wife, you two go ask around and see if anyone has seen the third brother's wife and the others."
Xu Dazhui and his wife were somewhat reluctant, but they did not dare to disobey their father's order. They went to look for people cursing, but after asking around, no one had seen them. They became more and more angry, thinking that they had taken advantage of their mother and third brother to slack off while their mother and third brother were not out.
Xu Dazhu's wife couldn't help but curse out loud: "Well, he really is a traitor. He usually pretends to be submissive, but when something happens, he just tries to shirk his responsibilities! When mother comes back, I will let her teach those four a lesson."
"Okay, let's look around again."
"You scared me to death, Xu Dazhu, why are you two not at home in the middle of the night and running out to scare people?"
"Erniu, you're the one who's hanging out in the middle of the night, not looking where you're going, and you're blaming us!"
"Hey, I'm not just wandering around. I came out to look for someone whose sickle fell into the rice field. Where are you and your wife?"
Xu Dazhu snorted in annoyance, "You're still looking for the third son's wife and three kids. I don't know where they went. They're not home in the middle of the night, and we have to come out to look for them. We haven't even harvested the rice at home, which only adds to the chaos."
Zhang Erniu immediately said, "I know. The four of them went to town, saying they were going to look for Sanzhu. Didn't Uncle Xu say that Sanzhu would go with Aunt Xu to help out with relatives for a few days? Why is Sanzhu going to town again?"
"What???"
Upon hearing this, Xu Dazhui pulled his wife and ran home, leaving Zhang Erniu confused.
Old Man Xu almost fainted after hearing this. These four idiots must have been arrested, otherwise they wouldn't have come back so late. He knew exactly how many copper coins they had on them, and there was no way they had money to bribe the officials.
After Xu Dazhui finished speaking, he immediately went back to his room. He was very sleepy. If he stayed there, he didn't know what his father would say next. It would be better to go back to his room and have a good sleep.
When Old Man Xu came to his senses, there was no one else in the yard. He was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at them, thinking they were a bunch of useless trash.
He returned to the house cursing and searched everywhere, but the more he searched, the paler his face became. Unwilling to believe it, he turned over everything again. The clanging sounds were particularly obvious in the silent night.
"Husband, are we really not going to go take a look?"
"No, go to sleep. Dad is venting his anger. It will be fine once he vents."
"But....."
Xu Dazhu turned over impatiently and shouted in a low voice: "Shut up, go by yourself if you want to go, don't bother me, I'm very sleepy."
The woman closed her mouth awkwardly and gradually fell asleep with snoring.
"Tell me, was it you who did it?"
"what?"
Xu Erzhu just felt confused. He stayed in the house and almost never went out. He didn't know what made Old Man Xu go crazy in the middle of the night.
"Hand over the things quickly!"
Old man Xu's eyeballs bulged out, and he seemed to be in a trance. He stared at Xu Erzhu fiercely, as if he wanted to tear the other's disgusting face into pieces.
"I do not understand what you are saying."
"Well, you still dare to act like this with me? When I find you, I'll ask the officials to arrest you. You shameless thing, you actually stole things from my house."
Old Man Xu tossed and turned, but found nothing. His eyes grew increasingly hostile. “Where on earth did you hide that thing? Hand it over to me!!!”
Xu Erzhu no longer had any feelings for the old man in front of him. He stared at him with cold eyes and said word by word: "Mr. Xu, even if you don't like me, you should find a good reason. What can a cripple like me take from you? If you don't believe me, you can go find the official."
Old man Xu looked at the two of them suspiciously, his eyes as sharp as a torch. Seeing that their expressions did not seem to be fake and their brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly, who else could it be but them?
The eldest brother is a lazy, cunning and slippery guy. There is absolutely no way he can take away so many treasures quietly. The third brother is a simple-minded fool. There is no way he can take it either. It is even more impossible for the old woman. She has never known about these things.
After thinking about it, Old Man Xu's expression became even more gloomy. He was unhappy and wanted to vent his anger, so he waved his hand to slap the other person, but he didn't expect the other person to try his best to dodge, causing him to almost fall onto the bed.
Xu Erzhu hurriedly supported himself with his hands. His daughter had cured his leg, but if Old Man Xu's leg fell down, it would be broken again.
"You rebellious son, you dare to lay hands on me? I will beat you to death, you useless bastard!"
Old man Xu struggled hard, and Xia Miao, who was standing beside him, became increasingly angry. She stood up, pushed the man to the ground, and started hitting him with her fists.
Now she didn't care about the issue of seniority. All she had in her eyes was resentment towards the old couple. Why did these people hate them so much and wish they would die?
She was useless. She failed to protect her child and let the child suffer with her.
She was the daughter-in-law that Xu Erzhu married into the family in a legitimate way. The two old fools always openly and secretly called her three children bastards. So what were they, old bastards?
