I might as well bring a servant there, it would be a little more reliable.
Now something is left in someone else’s hands!
"This one may have been wandering around and accidentally left behind. Please make a trip to bring it here."
After saying that, he reached out to grab the jade pendant in Xiao Ran's hand, but failed.
Xiao Ran retracted his hand: "Oh? It fell into the servant's room by such a coincidence?"
"Chu Sheng walked around very carefully. Did he even reach the guest room?"
Listening to Xiao Ran's teasing, Chu Tianshu's face turned pale.
"The servant in that room is missing. Doesn't the uncle have anything to say?" Chu Yan blushed, but Chu Tianshu was still defending at this time.
"This..." Chu Tianshu hesitated.
"What's there to say? I don't know." Chu Tianshu frowned.
"How do you explain the jade pendant?" Chu Yanhong shook the jade pendant in her hand.
It is estimated that Chu Sheng has not noticed that his jade pendant has fallen off, otherwise Chu Tianshu would not have this reaction.
Chu Tianshu was a little nervous, and then said shamelessly: "I don't know, maybe one of your servants stole away!"
Now we can only pour dirty water on Chu Yanhong and the others.
"Oh? Who doesn't take stolen goods with them when they run away?" Chu Yanhong raised her eyebrows.
"In that case, if uncle doesn't mind, can you let Chu Sheng come out?"
How could Chu Tianshu dare to let Chu Sheng, the guy who failed to succeed but failed to do so, come out?
Maybe I'll recognize it as soon as it comes out.
"Why don't you guys talk first and I'll go talk to Chu Sheng myself?"
After saying that, Xiao Ran walked directly towards the door.
"Why!"
Chu Tianshu stepped forward to stop Xiao Ran, but a mountain of flesh stood in front of Chu Tianshu.
Looking up into Chu Yanhong's eyes, it was the first time she realized that Chu Yanhong was so tall.
His eyes were sharp, and he was a little scared.
"Uncle, let's talk?"
…
Xiao Ran left the lobby without looking for Chu Sheng.
The top priority was to find Zhao Xue quickly, but the place was so big that Xiao Ran didn't know where to start.
He grabbed a boy casually and asked, "Where is the servant's room?"
Chu Sheng couldn't let the two of them hide in his room, right?
After all, there is an old man, which is not very realistic.
"Who are you?" The boy looked at Xiao Ran warily.
"Chu family, you say so."
Looking at Xiao Ran's clothes, he did not look like a servant, so he pointed the way.
Xiao Ran looked at the direction, which seemed a bit remote.
Just in case Chu Tianshu wanted someone to chase him later, Tang An didn't dare to waste any time and ran towards the servant's room.
As soon as it passed, I was dumbfounded.
"Damn it, why are there so many people?"
Looking at dozens of rooms, many people came in and out, looking at Xiao Ran curiously.
"Does this allow me to go in and search?"
Xiao Ran looked at a group of people and didn't recognize him. Could it be that he was asked to search from room to room?
It is estimated that Chu Tianshu already knew his location before he found Zhao Xue.
By then, Zhao Xue had been transferred away before the search could be found.
"well!"
Xiao Ran sighed and finally didn't go in.
With so many people, it is inevitable that someone will become suspicious.
Xiao Ran walked around in a circle and finally stopped at the woodshed not far away.
These firewood sheds were all in the corners of the yard, and Tang An didn't even notice them unless he looked carefully.
As if thinking of something, Xiao Ran squatted down and tinkered a bit.
"hey-hey."
Xiao Ran stood up, hurried to the door of the servant's room, and hid in the corner.
Sure enough, after a while someone shouted: "Fire!"
In an instant, everyone got into a mess and ran out carrying buckets of water.
Fortunately, the firewood shed is remote, so no matter how big the fire is, it can be easily controlled.
Before lighting the fire, he made sure that no one was around. Xiao Ran looked at the empty servant's room and walked in with satisfaction.
The whole row of houses looked a bit like modern factories. Since everyone was leaving in a hurry, the doors were basically open, which saved Tang An from going in one by one.
Servants' rooms are usually smaller, with several people sharing one room.
Standing at the door, you can see everything at a glance.
Tang An walked past each room, and found that they were basically empty and devoid of anything.
After walking to the last few houses, footsteps could be heard outside.
It seems that these people are all back. I hurriedly looked at the last room and didn't find Zhao Xue. Could it be that he's not here?
Xiao Ran looked at the door. If he went out now, he would definitely run into these people.
But there was no way back.
When the servants came back, they saw Xiao Ran walking out leisurely.
"Who are you?"
A maid called to Xiao Ran.
"You don't have to worry about it."
After saying that, he strode out.
"It can't be a thief, right? Everyone went out when there was a fire just now, and this person actually appears here?"
Hearing the discussion behind him, Xiao Ran didn't take it to heart.
Since Zhao Xue is not here, there is no need for him to be secretive.
It's just that Chu Tianshu was dumbfounded when he saw the flames soaring into the sky, but it was considered a break in the stalemate with Chu Yanhong.
Seeing that everything around the woodshed was burnt to black, he was so angry that he cursed.
Chu Yanhong stood behind him. When she saw this, she also guessed that it was Xiao Ran's work, but she didn't understand why Xiao Ran would do this.
At this time, Xiao Ran walked out of the corner leisurely. The moment he saw Xiao Ran, Chu Sheng ran out of nowhere.
"Xiao Ran! You set the fire, right?" Chu Sheng grabbed Xiao Ran's collar.
"Ouch! Don't say this nonsense!" Xiao Ran patted Chu Sheng's hand: "Is this your tutor? Why do you attack guests so casually?"
When Chu Tianshu saw Xiao Ran appear, he also believed that it was Xiao Ran who had done it.
But with Xiao Ran like this, they really couldn't do anything to him.
"Chu Sheng, let him go first." Chu Tianshu said with a dark face.
Chu Sheng was a little reluctant, but still let go.
"Hehe, that's right!" Xiao Ran smirked.
At this time, the maid who had just followed Xiao Ran came out. After hearing Chu Sheng's words, she knew that the person in front of her was Xiao Ran.
He is also Chu Yanhong's husband. The two families have always refused to deal with him, so they thought that the opportunity to claim credit would come.
He walked up to Chu Sheng and whispered something.
After listening, Chu Sheng glanced at Xiao Ran meaningfully, with a trace of pride flashing in his eyes.
When Chu Tianshu heard that Xiao Ran went to the servant's room, he smiled: "Why did you find Chu Sheng and find the servant's room?"
“Your yard is too big, I’m lost!”
Xiao Ran touched his head: "But Chu Sheng can accidentally wander into the servant's room. Isn't that surprising to me?"
"Oh? You can watch whatever you like."
Understanding Xiao Ran's thoughts, Chu Sheng looked proud.
When Xiao Ran saw the two people's reactions, he also confirmed that Zhao Xue was not in the servant's room.
"Okay, if there's nothing else to do, we'll go back and see you next time."
"But..." Chu Yanhong wanted to say something else.
They came here to look for someone, and now they just go back without finding him?
Could it be that Xiao Ran came here just to vent his anger?
Xiao Ran directly pulled Chu Yanhong towards the door. Xiao Ran didn't let go until she was out of the yard.
Looking at Chu Yanhong who was confused, she opened her mouth to explain.
