Crossing town house man and wife

Mrs. Zheng had obviously never seen such a "noble man" speaking like this, and was a little dazed for a moment. Although she didn't continue howling, she didn't obediently "roll" out of the yard.

Wu Ming has a bad habit of poisonous tongue, but he has never had any interest in talking with others.Seeing Zheng Shi kneeling on the spot in a daze, he didn't bother to talk to her any more, he stuffed the jar of soybean oil into the tortoise shell's hand, walked to Zheng Shi's side, grabbed her hair bun and yanked hard, Drag her to the front yard.

Zheng suddenly cried out in pain like a pig being slaughtered, unfortunately the one who dragged her out was not a master who would pity her, and she herself was not a soft jade who would be pitied.

But just as Wu Ming dragged Mrs. Zheng to the front yard, the tortoise shell who came back to his senses chased him out with the pot in his arms, "Ma'am, wait!"

"Why, do you still want to intercede with her?" Wu Ming turned his head displeased.

"No, ma'am." Tortoiseshell said while panting, "What the servant girl wants to say is that you can't just throw her out like this. A servant like her will be searched when entering and leaving the courtyard. You have to get someone to come first." Search her, and let her go when there is no problem!"

Wu Ming was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Turtle in surprise, and found that she was trying to wink at him, obviously implying something.

What kind of game is this playing?

Wu Ming doesn't know if there is a rule of body search here, but when it comes to the rules of this year, tortoise must be more familiar than him.Moreover, the tortoise shell has been staying in the backyard, and it can be regarded as "getting along day and night" with the Zheng family, so she may have found some clues.

Could it be that a blind cat bumped into a mouse and really met a spy?

Wu Ming let go of his hand, left Zheng Shi on the spot, raised his head, and asked the tortoise shell with his lips: Do you really want to search?

Tortoiseshell nodded vigorously.

Wu Ming twitched the corners of his mouth, and said to Tortoise: "You find a woman who can search her body, and by the way, ask someone to call that Luo Daozi over."

Perhaps because of being too deeply abused by future generations, Wu Ming's first thought was to find witnesses.

"Yes." Tortoiseshell was about to take a step, but then remembered that she was still holding the pot in her hand, looked around, and found that only Wu Ming could take over, so she walked over helplessly, handed the pot back to him, and then turned around and left. courtyard.

Wu Ming also felt that the pot was in the way at the moment, and with a glance, he found that the new cook was hiding in the shadow of the hanging flower door in the backyard, and immediately raised his voice: "You, come here."

The new cook was stunned for a while before she realized that Wu Ming was calling her, and then hesitated for a few seconds. Seeing that Wu Ming had been staring at her, she moved cautiously and walked to the By Wu Ming's side.

Wu Ming began to consider whether she should be replaced as well, but now he had to deal with Mrs. Zheng first, so Wu Ming suppressed his irritability and handed over the jar of soybean oil, "Put it in the kitchen."

"... promise." The new cook took the pot carefully, took a few steps back, then turned around, changed the small walk into a small run, and quickly disappeared behind the hanging flower door.

This woman doesn't think he is a scourge, does she? !

Wu Ming has black lines all over his head.

After more than ten minutes, the tortoise shell took the two older women back to the yard.

After a while, Luo Daozi also led people to rush over. In addition to the guards who often appeared by his side these two days, there was also a middle-aged strong man with big arms and round waists.

Seeing the strong man, Zheng, who was already stunned, immediately cried again, "Da Lang, save me!"

"Lady!" The strong man called Da Lang is obviously Zheng's husband. Although his face is full of anxiety at the moment, he hesitates to go forward. He doesn't look like a man who will kill his wife. Hit the guy.

Luo Daozi took a step forward, "Madam, what's going on?"

Wu Ming didn't know what was going on, he just wanted to throw Mrs. Zheng out of the yard, and it became like this without knowing it.

"Tortoiseshell." Wu Ming turned his head, "I leave this matter to you."

"No!" Tortoise immediately responded, but then did not respond to Luo Daozi's question, but ordered to the two strong women, "Search!"

The two maids seemed to have been instructed, so they walked up to Mrs. Zheng without saying a word, pulled her up from the ground, and then one of them twisted her arms while the other groped her body.

"Don't touch me! Don't touch me!" Zheng Shi immediately struggled in horror, "You two sons of bitches, who gave you the courage to search me..."

"Stop her dirty mouth!" Tortoiseshell shouted aggressively.

The strong woman who searched immediately took out a dirty handkerchief and stuffed it into Zheng's mouth.The one who was in charge of grabbing her arm also exerted more force, causing Zheng to groan in pain.

Zheng's husband immediately knelt down beside Luo Daozi, begging: "Luo Daoist, even if my Yingniang did something wrong, I can't... and I can't search her body in front of a group of men!"

"This...doesn't seem appropriate?" Luo Daozi looked at Wu Ming in embarrassment.

But before he finished speaking, the woman who searched over there let out a "huh" and pulled out a piece of white silk smeared with black ink from Zheng's obscene clothes.

As soon as Luo Daozi saw this piece of white silk, he no longer cared about the carpenter kneeling at his feet, and eagerly stretched out his hand, "Bring it to me!"

The woman who searched the body hesitated for a moment, first glanced at the tortoise shell, saw her nodded, and then handed the silk cloth to Luo Daozi.

Wu Ming who was next to him had already recognized the piece of silk cloth, which was the one he used as straw paper when he drew the structure diagram in the morning.Because it was useless, Wu Ming casually threw it into the dustpan for garbage.But before throwing it in, he still carefully blacked out all the pictures, even if someone picked them up, there was no possibility of imitating them.

Why did Mrs. Zheng steal this thing?

Wu Ming was confused.

Luo Daozi also recognized the silk cloth at this moment, and immediately burst into anger, waved his hands and shouted: "Tie her up for me!"

The soldiers behind rushed forward, snatched Zheng from the hands of the two strong women, took out ropes, and tied them tightly.

Zheng's mouth was still stuffed with a veil, and she couldn't speak even if she wanted to defend herself, so she could only choke with sobs.

Zheng's husband, a carpenter, came back to his senses quickly, and immediately prostrated himself at Luo Daozi's feet, knocking his head loudly, and defending his wife, "Where did Ying Niang pick this thing up? Absolutely not intentional stealing! She is just greedy for petty gain, and can't do bad things! Daoist, please, please spare her life! Daoist—”

"Tie him up together!" Luo Daozi angrily kicked the strong man away, and ordered the couple to be tied up, gagged, and dragged out of the yard.

Wu Ming also felt that this woman was more likely to pick up a bargain.After all, materials are scarce these days, and some poor families can’t even afford to wear clothes, and the white silk is only stained with ink, so if you take it back and wash it, it will be a good piece of cloth, and at least it can be used for embroidery or dyeing. a bellyband.

But the incident happened because of him, and it was the tortoise shell beside him who shot. Wu Ming's sympathy was not enough for him to slap himself and tear down the people around him.What's more, Wu Ming has long been used to guessing people's hearts with the greatest malice. Even if he rescues the couple, they may not be grateful to him. Maybe it will be a farce between Mr. Dong Guo and the wolf.

"The poor man has no eyes, please punish me." Seeing that the Zheng couple had been dragged away, Luo Daozi walked up to Wu Ming depressed, and bowed his head to plead guilty.

"You are not my subordinate, how can I have the right to punish you." Wu Ming curled his lips, "In the future, I will have a better memory, and don't put people around me casually, especially don't put people who I don't like."

After finishing speaking, Wu Ming waved Luo Daozi and a group of idlers out of the yard, and he took the tortoiseshell back to the backyard.

Bringing the tortoise shell into the main room, Wu Ming checked the surroundings with his spiritual sense, and saw that the new cook was still obediently staying in the kitchen, and it was impossible to hear them talking, so he immediately asked, "Did you see her take something?" ?”

"Yes." Tortoise admitted frankly, "The servant girl knew that she had taken something she shouldn't have taken, that's why she didn't chase the new cook away when she came over, and waited for you to come back and deal with it."

Only the soldiers designated by Yan Heng and Luo Daozi could go in and clean the main hall in the front yard. After Huobi and Wu Ming moved in, they were only responsible for cleaning the back yard where Wu Ming lived temporarily every day, and they didn't even dare to touch the main hall gate of the front yard.But this morning, shortly after Wu Ming and Luo Daozi left, Huobi discovered that Mrs. Zheng sneaked into the main hall of the front yard, and soon ran out with a happy face, and then hid in the kitchen, closing the door without knowing what to do .

Tortoise shell immediately became suspicious, and guessed that Mrs. Zheng probably stole the silk cloth that Wu Ming and the others used to write.

This happened from time to time in the Sheriff's Mansion, but the people in the Sheriff's Mansion were not as bold as Mrs. Zheng, they just picked up some silk cloth wasted when the masters were practicing calligraphy and painting, and no one dared to think about important items. .

"Those two women... what happened to those two strong women you brought back?" Wu Ming asked instead.

Although the tortoise shell is a child of the Sheriff's Mansion, but she is young and has only entered the barracks for a few days, but the two strong women who are twice her age are looking forward to her, just like No matter how you think about it, Wu Ming finds it unbelievable that he is so loyal.

"They are the serious cooks in the kitchen!" Tortoise shell explained, "Mr. Zheng's husband is a small steward in the carpentry. She has a bit of face in front of Daoist Luo. She took advantage of her husband's light to grab it." When it came time to work as your cook, I was actually not proficient in the kitchen at all, and the food I cooked was not as delicious as yours! The servant girl felt strange, so she ran to the kitchen to inquire about it. I thought I heard complaints in one ear—all the aunts in the kitchen don't like her very much!"

No wonder he didn't show affection at all when he started, it really was a deep grudge.

Wu Mingxin slandered, but continued to ask: "It's only been a few days, and you're already familiar with the kitchen?"

"Cannibals have short mouths and soft hands." Tortoise shell giggled, "From that pot of rice, they are already cooked even if they are not familiar."

"A pot of rice can exchange friendship for a few days." Wu Ming curled his lips, "I'll go to the kitchen to pick some fruit or something, and send it to the two cooks who came to help, don't let them go for nothing... that's right. "

Wu Ming got up and entered the inner room, took out a piece of gold from the gold he brought, then turned back to the main hall, and threw the gold into the tortoiseshell hands.

In the Qin Dynasty, there were no gold ingots, only gold coins, and the production technology was very poor. They were far inferior to the gorgeous and exquisite gold coins of later generations. gold cake.

An object weighing one catty is nothing in Wu Ming's hands, but the tortoise shell is only eleven or twelve years old, with slender arms and legs, so he didn't see clearly what Wu Ming was throwing, so he reached out to pick it up without thinking. Almost fell to the ground.

"Ah!" After seeing that what he caught was actually a piece of gold cake, the tortoise shell was startled and almost threw the gold cake out again. He hurriedly raised his head to look at Wu Ming, "Ma'am, this is..."

"I'll give you favors." Wu Ming said, "I don't have copper coins in my hand, so you can find a way to exchange them yourself, and just don't lose money."

"This... this is gold!" Tortoiseshell began to break out in cold sweat, "How dare I use it?!"

"Then keep it for now." Wu Minghun waved his hand nonchalantly, "If you really don't need it, I will give it to you as a dowry."

"lady--"

"Stop yelling!" Wu Ming blocked his ears impatiently, "I'll give it to you if I say so, is your wife short of this little gold?"

Hearing this sentence, Tortoise finally closed his mouth, thought for a while, and said to Wu Ming: "Since Madam trusts the servant girl, then the servant girl has the courage to accept it. But after all, as a servant girl, you shouldn't have such things Yes, if you are held accountable, you have to speak for me!"

"Don't worry, your wife, I'm not such an irresponsible person!" Wu Ming waved his hand and drove the tortoise shell out of the house.
