"Let's go!" Brother Ninth shouted angrily, "I have such a noble status, but why is it always me who does the work?"
But I am very puzzled. What is the purpose of a beautiful lady in Danyang going to the grave of Mr. Xu in the middle of the night?
Could it be... could she be the thief who stole the bitter leaf asarum?
After returning to the Xu Mansion, Young Master Xu ordered someone to invite Mrs. Xu.
The Ninth Senior Brother brushed the hem of his clothes, sat down leisurely, and said: "You, the Xu family, are so bold. We have been lying to you for a long time. If you don't hand over Xixin, don't blame me for being merciless!"
Mrs. Xu quickly stood up and laughed with her: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I can use the heads of the twenty-eight members of the Xu family as a guarantee. Bitter leaf asarum is really not in the Xu family."
Ninth Senior Brother curled his lips and sneered: "In that case, why is Xu Danyang, a lady from a well-known and wealthy family, wandering around in the barren mountains and wild ridges in the middle of the night?"
There is an ink painting hanging on the wall, depicting the fragrance of osmanthus.
Danyang looked at the fine sweet-scented osmanthus flowers floating in the wind on the picture, but said nothing.
"Danyang must have nothing to do with the theft of Bitter Leaf Asarum!" Madam Xu secretly glanced at Danyang and made the final decision.
As the night wind blew, the painting moved slightly, and the sweet-scented osmanthus seemed to fall from the painting silk.
"It's already late at night, why don't you all go back to your rooms and rest first? I, the Xu family, will give you an explanation tomorrow morning." After a long while, Young Master Xu bowed his hands to us.
I also thought that one should not be too careless in life, and it would be better to save some face for the Xu family, so I nodded.
"Xu Qingyang, your family is good at acting. I am here to watch and see what other tricks you can come up with!"
The Fifth Senior Brother grabbed the Ninth Senior Brother: "We will take our leave first and wait for news about Master Xu tomorrow."
Early the next morning, Mrs. Xu sent someone to report that she had been in poor health recently, and she was afraid that she would be moved to a hospital on the outskirts of the city to recuperate because she was too delicate and delicate.
Alas, yes, the thief who stole the family's treasures and sent blackmail letters is most likely his own daughter, which is indeed a bit sad.
I asked: "Where is your lady?"
The visitor hesitated for a while and said: "Miss...Miss is missing..."
What? What about bitter leaf asarum?
I hurried to Danyang's courtyard, and sure enough, the house was already empty.
Then, I hurriedly called three senior brothers to meet Mr. Xu and inquire about the whereabouts of Bitter Leaf Asarum. But when I arrived at the gate of Mr. Xu’s hospital, I realized that Mrs. Xu was not the only one who was sick in the Xu family.
The boy returns——
Last night, Mr. Xu was even more exposed. Unfortunately, Mr. Xu caught wind and cold and was recuperating in the hospital. It is inconvenient to see guests now.
Senior Brother Ninth was very angry: "You asked me to help you last night, but now I've got Bitter Leaf Asarum, but I'm avoiding it. Little pretty boy, just wait!"
As he spoke, he lowered his body, as if he was about to jump up the wall and climb into the courtyard. Fortunately, I had quick eyesight and quick hands, and pulled the corner of his clothes.
Fifth Brother said, after all, we are guests of the Xu Mansion. If Young Master Xu really catches the cold, wouldn't it be rude for us to rush in? For now, it is better for guests to do as they please. If we come back tomorrow, if However, Young Master Xu still avoided seeing him, and it was not too late to break in again.
Brother Ninth said angrily: "It's obvious that the Xu family is a thief. Xu Qingyang wants to be that little bastard and hide the bitter leaves and asarum. You don't understand the psychology of rogues!"
I deeply feel that what the Ninth Senior Brother said is reasonable. If you want to know the most about rogues, you must also be a rogue. It just so happens that I, the Ninth Senior Brother, is the most complete rogue.
When we went back, as expected by Brother Ninth, we were still rejected.
