Chapter 53

"What did you say!"

Xue Bolin jumped up, and the chair under him fell to the bookshelf behind him, making a harsh sound.

Hearing this, Qingshu straightened her back.

There is still this one!
Xue Bolin, the head of the family, had at least a general idea of ​​how much money the members of the Xue family had on hand. Xue Qingyuan would be as good as the sky with three or four taels of silver. Wang Yan's words can almost prove that Xue Qingyuan stole the money.

If that's the case, why is there no such thing in Xue Qingshu's memory?
In his memory, Wang Yan did come to Xue's house today, and also saw Xue Bolin, but he left without making any noise.

Thinking of something, Qing Shu's face became more and more ugly.

I hope it's not what she imagined. If it is, then Xue Qingshu will be so pitiful.

Qing Shu pricked up her ears and continued to listen.

Get out of bed on one arm.

The movement in the study scared Xue Qingyuan, who was eavesdropping in the corner, to stumble.

"what!"

A quick and brief exclamation came into the study, and Xue Bolin immediately shouted: "Who is outside? Come out."

Outside the window, Xue Qingyuan stood up tremblingly.

"father……"

"What are you doing sneakily?"

"No... I didn't..."

Having witnessed with his own eyes the force with which Xue Bolin whipped someone, Xue Qingyuan was extremely frightened, and his legs trembled with fear after being forced to ask him a question.

His head was in a daze, and there was only one thought in his head.

——It's over, it's about to be discovered, it's over, it's over...

But at this time, Wang Yan turned his head and asked him: "Qingyuan, why are you spending so much money on bird's nest?"

"me……"

Xue Qingyuan only felt a chill rushing up his back, which made him shiver all over.

Glancing at Xue Bolin's livid face from the corner of his eye, he shuddered violently, and subconsciously slapped him backwards.

"Wang! Stop talking nonsense. When did I buy bird's nests? Do you want to say that I stole the money last time? Oh, I understand. You are trying to clear your eldest sister's reputation. You don't want to marry I am the wife of a domestic thief, so he deliberately put the shit basin on my head, dad, you must not believe him!"

Xue Bolin's lips moved slightly, and he was about to say something, when he heard a "squeak", the half-covered door of the study was pushed open from the outside, and the figure of the eldest daughter appeared at the door.

She weakly supported the door frame, her figure was especially thin, and her eyes were filled with unbelievable tears looking at Xue Qingyuan through the window.

Soon she turned her head to look at Xue Bolin again, the light of hope seemed to be silently surging.

[Actor! 】Sincere comments on the small system.

"Father, I really didn't steal grandma's silver. Second brother never told me where grandma hid the silver. He wronged me."

Xue Qingyuan was furious, "You stole it, you stole it!"

Hearing this, the remaining blood on Qingshu's face faded immediately, Xu couldn't stand the grievance, her body suddenly began to tremble, as if she was about to collapse, she cried and questioned loudly regardless.

"You said I stole it, so why should I steal it? I lost more than 100 taels at home, and you only found ten taels in my room. Where did the rest of the silver go? During the two days when the silver was lost, nothing but going up the mountain I never went out of the yard to pick up firewood. Even when I went up the mountain, I went with the people in the village. If I took the opportunity to sell the stolen goods, I would know when I went out. But the second brother, you don’t have enough pocket money every month, and you often talk to the third brother Come to me to get money for emergency, where did you get 56 taels of silver?"

"me……"

Xue Qingyuan was so anxious that he opened his mouth repeatedly but couldn't speak.

Qingshu took the opportunity to press further, "I heard what Wang Yan said just now, do you dare to say that you didn't buy bird's nest with 56 taels of silver?"

"No, absolutely not!"

Xue Qingyuan, who was focused on shifting the blame, responded decisively. He had no idea how guilty he looked at this moment.

--idiot!
Qingshu sneered secretly.

It's fine if you want to deny it, but you are so stupid to tell such a lie that cannot stand verification.

Let's face it, how can you deny it?

Qingshu put on a look of determination after being deeply hurt, "Father, my daughter never dares to bear the reputation of stealing family property, and my daughter is willing to report to the police to prove her innocence!"

Hearing the word 'report to the official', Xue Qingyuan's legs went limp, and he almost fainted from fright.

Wang Yan also seized the opportunity to echo, "Uncle, this matter is not trivial and should indeed be reported to the official."

Qing Shu expressed her gratitude to Wang Yan with her eyes, and turned to Xue Bolin.

She still has certain expectations for Xue Bolin.

In Xue Qingshu's memory, Xue Zhang seems kind, but in fact he is confused and doesn't know right from wrong. On the contrary, Xue Bolin is a good father who is lenient and strict, although he is unsmiling.

As a daughter, she is full of admiration for Xue Bolin.

Xue Bolin's face was livid, and he didn't say a word.

Xue Qingyuan's guilty conscience is written all over his face, how could he not understand?What's more, apart from buying bird's nest, he also heard about another thing.

That incident was exactly why he was in a bad mood when he came back.

Before Xue Bolin returned home, he met Shopkeeper Zhou from Zhouji Rice and Grain Shop in the county town.

Shopkeeper Zhou jokingly asked him if he had become rich. Xue Bolin didn't know why, but only after asking did he find out that Xue Qingyuan bought a lot of high-quality rice and white noodles at Zhouji Rice Grain Shop a few days ago.

At that time, Xue Bolin's heart skipped a beat.

The rice their family eats is all grown in their own fields. Where do they need to buy rice and noodles?

On the way back, Xue Bolin thought more and more that his second son's behavior was suspicious. Now that he heard about buying the bird's nest, he was almost certain that the house thief was not the boss, but the second son.

Out of the corner of Xue Bolin's eyes, he saw Xue Qinghang standing silently by the door.

In an instant, my mind was in a mess.

The old two are stupid and timid, and he would never dare to steal the family's money on his own. He has always listened to the third child, so it can be seen that this matter has something to do with the third child.

It would be fine if the second child did it alone, but it is related to the third child...

Xue Qinghang was born with intelligence and outstanding literary talents. Xue Bolin had no chance of Qingyun Road in his life, and he wholeheartedly hoped that he could be admitted to Juren and change Xue's family. The reputation of a scholar is the most important thing, and there must be no mistakes.

As for the daughter...the daughter who got married, spilled the water, she will get married soon.

Xue Bolin's thoughts suddenly changed, and he soon made a choice.

"Okay, what official should I report to? Isn't that embarrassing enough?"

After yelling, he angrily stretched out a finger and pointed at Qing Shu.

"You still don't know what's wrong until now. You really don't change your nature. You are an unfilial daughter. You have completely embarrassed my Xue family!"

As soon as this remark came out, how could Qingshu not know his attitude?

Seeing his angry face, Qing Shu suddenly felt her teeth turn cold.

This is the good father that Xue Qingshu has missed all her life!
Really funny.

A sense of sadness filled her heart, Qingshu seemed unable to bear the blow, her body softened and she fell to the ground.

"Hey...Father, the facts are in front of you. I am also your child. Why do you treat me like this?"
