C98 Stealing
"What happened outside?" The old lady had a light sleep, so she woke up with a slight sound. The light outside the door lit up the room.
"Madam, Fourth Miss's room is on fire!" eldest servant girl helped the old lady up.
"What?! My good grandson! My Qing has been rescued? " The old lady was touching her clothes by the bedside.
"I... I didn't." eldest servant girl took the old lady's clothes, "We have already sent people to save her. Don't worry, Fourth Miss is very lucky. She will definitely be fine!"
"Yes, yes!" The old lady hurriedly put on her clothes and left the room as fast as she could.
Once she went out, the crowd carried wooden barrels. The shopkeeper stood at the side and commanded, "Quick, quick, quick. Your lives are not enough for the young lady alone!"
Looking at the sky full of fire, the old lady knocked on her walking stick and moved her heavy feet a few steps. "Qing, my grandson!" The old lady was so angry that she fainted!
"Madam!" eldest servant girl became more and more flustered, "Someone come, shopkeeper! Shopkeeper! Send someone to invite a doctor!"
"Madam, Madam!" When the manager heard eldest servant girl's shout, he saw the unconscious old lady in the crowd. What should he do? If something really happened to the Prime Minister's Madam and Fourth Miss, even ten heads would not be enough!
"Someone come, you, you, the two of you go and invite a doctor, go quickly!" The shopkeeper slapped his thigh, and his entire person looked dispirited. It was ruined, ruined, and ruined!
Mingdie came back from outside and saw the fire. She was shocked and ran up to grab a servant who was carrying water. "Little brother, what happened?"
"I don't know why Fourth Miss's room went on fire! Miss, I'll be leaving first!" The servant said as he ran.
Mingdie smiled as she climbed up. This way, it would save her trouble. She did not know whether she had been rescued or not... She grabbed another maid, "Miss, has Fourth Miss been rescued?"
"She has been rescued. Miss Liu is a kind person. She gave her room to Fourth Miss. Just now, the old lady also fainted. Miss Liu went to take care of the old lady. " The maid praised and when she spoke of Lau Fenglan, she became respectful. She pulled Mingdie to the side.
"That is true. My family's young miss is the best." Mingdie raised her head with a proud expression.
"Why isn't the young lady accompanying Miss Liu?" The maid was puzzled and asked.
"I just went to the toilet, so I didn't know." Mingdie smiled in defiance.
"Oh, then quickly go and serve the girl. I'll go first!" The maid bowed and walked out with a smile.
Mingdie hid outside and did not let anyone discover her tracks. Since she was rescued, the matter still had to continue in the young lady's room!
The fire finally extinguished. There were only a few pillars left in the room and the rest had turned into ruins.
Mingdie stood in the distance and took a look before entering the old lady's room. A screen. The screen blocked the old lady's figure. Only half of the doctor's body could be seen. He wanted to go up and see if Lau Fenglan was the one who took care of the old lady. When he arrived at the screen, he only saw the back of the old lady.
Eldest servant girl, who was taking care of the old lady, carried the water into the door and called out in dissatisfaction, "Mingdie, the doctor is taking the pulse. It is fine as long as the young lady keeps watch. What are you going up to do? You have lost your manners!"
Mingdie saw the clothes and headgear and it was indeed Lau Fenglan. She was embarrassed to return the greeting, "I want to see if Miss and Old Madam are alright. I have overstepped my boundaries."
"Yes, in the future, do not make such a mistake again." eldest servant girl put down the basin and said magnanimously.
"Okay, then I will go down first." Mingdie blessed herself and left, closing the door behind her.
She walked past the old lady's room and looked around to make sure that there was no one there. She stood by the wall and whispered, "She is in the young lady's original house. The young lady is now taking care of the old lady. You must serve Fourth Miss well. Oh, right, don't light the candle, or you will be exposed! I will handle the rest of the matters. All of you just wait and receive the money!"
The bushes by the side moved, and Mingdie returned to the outside of the old lady's house with a wicked smile.
Four to five figures scuttled out from the bushes and hid in Lau Fenglan's room in the dark...
Mingdie waited for an hour and went to Lau Fenglan's room to sneak around. Hearing the sound of the door, her face suddenly became frightened and she ran to the old lady's room and shouted, "Old madam, miss, it's not good, it's not good!"
"Why are you still so rude? " Eldest servant girl came out and closed the door. She frowned and looked at Mingdie, "Do you want to be punished before you change?"
"Sister, I went to the toilet just now. There was a sound in Miss's room. There might be a thief." Mingdie swallowed her saliva. She ran so fast that her throat was dry.
"Okay, I will go and report to the old madam and young lady. Wait a moment." eldest servant girl was in a hurry and when Mingdie saw her enter, her worried expression changed.
"Let's go and take a look." Before she went out the door, the voice was first heard. Lingyue opened the door and Mu Ruqing walked out.
Mingdie's expression was stiff and stiff. Her eyes stared at Mu Ruqing as if she was asking, Why are you here?
Mu Ruqing laughed and said, "Why? Are you so surprised to see me? Didn't you see me once when you entered the door?"
"Just now?" Mingdie said in a low voice and almost roared, "Wasn't it my family's young lady just now?! Why did you come out from inside? "
"Why are you so disrespectful? " Lingyue was unhappy when she saw Mingdie. She even disrespected Mu Ruqing and scolded her.
"Lingyue." Mu Ruqing shook her head and smiled back to Mingdie, "The one who was inside was me. I'm afraid you are mistaken."
"Impossible. My family's young miss is wearing light green clothes and you are wearing a hidden red. How can I be mistaken?" Mingdie shook her head in disbelief and stepped back.
"My lady has always been wearing this dress. Otherwise, you can ask the doctor and eldest servant girl, who is by the madame's side." Lingyue stood in front of her and replied discontentedly.
"Alright, didn't you say that there was a thief in my sister's room? If you don't go now, don't let anything happen." Mu Ruqing pretended to be lazy and looked at Mingdie with disdain as she smiled.
Only then did Mingdie remember that Mu Ruqing was here. Then who was in the room? The more she thought about it, the colder her heart became. She ran over in panic and fell down the stairs. She did not care about that much and got up to continue running.
The old lady's eldest servant girl followed behind Mu Ruqing and her servant.
When Mu Ruqing arrived, four or five shadows escaped through the window.
"Who is it?" Mu Ruqing angrily scolded, "Lingyue wants to catch those thieves!"
Eldest servant girl and Lingyue also saw it and Lingyue's expression was somewhat awkward, "Miss, I do not know martial arts and can't chase after them."
"That's true. I was too anxious to forget." Mu Ruqing helplessly shook her head and entered.
Mingdie had already lit the candle and the room was filled with light. It was just that all the clothes and things were in a mess. Even the red plum that Mu Ruqing gave Lau Fenglan was broken.
Now it was time to install it! Mu Ruqing anxiously ran up. Lau Fenglan was not wearing any clothes. She looked like she was in a daze, and her eyes were filled with tears.
Mingdie covered her with the blanket and cried. The three of them went up and Mu Ruqing directly leaned on Lau Fenglan's body, "Younger sister, what is it? What happened?"
"Go away! Don't touch my lady!" Mingdie gave Mu Ruqing a hard push and Lau Fenglan broke down. She could not utter a single word, let alone speak.
Mu Ruqing was pushed onto the ground and Lingyue and eldest servant girl went up to support her. eldest servant girl could not bear to watch and scolded, "Mingdie, why are you so abnormal today? ! Fourth Miss is your Mistress and disrespected Mistress. Take care of your skin!"
How could Lingyue tolerate it? She went up and gave Mingdie a slap and threatened, "You bitch! The young miss was also pushed by you? Do you have a long life? "
" Alright, Lingyue, I'm fine. It's just that my sister is now... " Mu Ruqing also became sorrowful. Two lines of tears slid down the corners of her eyes. "What should we do?"
"I want to tell the old madam and beg the old madam to make the decision. My young lady must have been killed!" Mingdie stared straight at Mu Ruqing and said while gnashing her teeth in anger. She carefully put Lau Fenglan down and was about to walk out the door.
