Chapter 40: Hide from Misfortune and Run away
When he arrived at the back window of the boudoir, Xu Zhu stopped and thought, "The treasure box lock cannot be opened without a key, and I have no way to know where the land deed is. First, I went into the room to teach her to hand over the land deed and the key. When everything was right, she was killed and ran away overnight. Tomorrow, all the servants got up and saw that she was dead, so they decided to report to the official. At that time, I, Dafu, Qi'er, Xi'er, and Xiao Yin were not in the mansion. How could I know who was the one who was doing the murderer? Even if I could find out and not bribe them, they would turn a blind eye. Big things turned into small things, and small things turned into nothing, and they would leave it alone. With Xiao Yin and the others with great abilities, how could they do to me?" Thinking of it, he gently opened the door bolt with the tip of the knife and placed the door bolt lightly on the ground. Unexpectedly, Jiang Shuang turned over, as if she looked at this side. Xu Zhu was so scared that he turned around and wanted to escape.
When he looked closely, Shuang didn't open his eyes, so he calmed down. He raised his legs high, let his feet lightly, came to Shuang's couch like a ghost, lifted the curtain, and reached out to pinch Shuang's neck. Suddenly, someone outside the gate shouted, "Miss Jiang, we are back!" Xu Zhu heard this, quickly turned around and walked a few steps, jumped out of the door, and ran away. Jiang Shuang was awakened by the shouting. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the door of the boudoir was open, the door bolt fell to the ground, and a black shadow jumped out of the door, so he hurriedly shouted, "Comeone, catch the thief!" At this time, Xu Zhu didn't even get back to his house, so he threw the bag to the bottom of the tree, and followed everyone to Shuang's door, and asked hypocritically: "Miss Jiang, what's the matter?" Shuang was so scared that his face turned red and his heart beat, and replied, "Someone sneaked into my room, you can catch him!" Everyone then looked around and disappeared without a trace.
The shouting was Qi'er. He and the wealthy general Wang Wu's family had already brought him in. When they entered the hospital, they saw that everyone was busy, and they asked, "Why are you so panicked?" Xu Zhu replied, "A thief entered Miss Jiang's room!" At this time, Shuang had put on her clothes and walked out of the room. Seeing that Wang Wu's family gave a gift, she asked Qi'er again: "Why is it so fast? It will take at least four or five days to get there." Qi'er replied, "The bandits entered the village in their family, and the government chased them, so they escaped from the village and came here. We happened to meet on the road. After asking a few words, we knew that they were Wang Wu's family, so we took it over." Shuang ordered people to pack up two large rooms and invite Wang Wu's wife Yang and Wang Wu's parents to move in.
The next morning, Xu Zhu got up early and took back the bag that he had left under the tree last night. Fortunately, no one saw it, so he went back to bed and waited. At noon, Xiao Yin and Xi'er returned and told her previous love. Shuang stayed in Xi'er to sleep in her room every day.
