Chapter 089: Temporary Calm Before the Storm
Most of Xiao Shunzi's injuries are skin injuries, plus he has practiced martial arts, his physical fitness is good, and I personally made a prescription to boil decoction and make medicinal diet to recuperate, but he recovered most of it in a week, and he just waited for the wounds on his body to scab over and fall off.
Qian was missing a waiter by his side, and Yinzhen asked the housekeeper to lead a few new housekeepers for her to choose. Qian was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, worried that she would not be able to pick a few people with intentions, so I asked her to help her check it. I looked around, either I disliked being too thin and cowardly, or I felt that my eyes were flickering and my heart was not right, and I felt dissatisfied with picking and choosing. In the end, he temporarily left an honest looking Muna, and said to the steward that he would use it for a few days first, and if it was not good, he would let him get it back.
Sending off the steward, Qian lost his previous restraints, and joked with a smile: "My sister picks a slave just like a draft girl in the palace, one more point is too much, and one less point is not enough." If you want me to say that I am afraid that I am choosing it compared to the appearance of Xiaoshunzi's father-in-law, but there are a few waiters in the world who are like Xiaoshunzi's father-in-law, who are good-looking, have good temperament, good martial arts, are loyal to their masters, and serve properly. The fourth master was afraid that it was really a rare sister, so he would point out these servants and maids who are good at everything, but it is not like us who just find a few to choose. Especially Degege, who looks favored, but those minions in the house ...... Hey, it's a pity......"
Listening to Qian's words and praising the people around him with envy, he was also happy in his heart, thinking of Xiao Shunzi, he was really a good entourage in a million, and he heard him talk about Yinzhen's kindness to himself, pursed his lips and smiled, and did not argue. just mentioned the dead Degege as he spoke, and his expression also darkened, and said: "You are a kind-hearted person, although you don't invite her much on weekdays, you can still feel sorry for her after her death." But when you look at the house, the person has only been dead for half a month, and the murderer has not really been caught, and it seems that this page has been turned over, and no one mentions her anymore. Even the fourth master, who doted on her so much at the beginning, after her death, I didn't see him show half of his nostalgia. ”
Speaking of this, looking at Qian who was deep in thought, I paused for a moment to let her think about it, and then I heard her sigh and say, "Yes." It's only been two months since I came in, but it feels like 20 years have passed, and I've experienced things that many people can't experience in a lifetime, and I have seen through things that some people need to spend a lifetime to understand. Human affection is warm and cold, in this environment, there is no scum left that will be eroded by reality, or death, if you want to live, you can only become the same indifferent and vicious. ”
In the end, the Qian family was born into a famous scholarly family, even if the family lived a hard life, but he was smart and knew a lot of things. I was afraid that she would think too much about it, so I said softly, "So, I have a few words that you must remember." First of all, no matter how sad the days are, you must find a way to live, and you may do something against your will out of necessity, but give yourself a bottom line and principles, and don't cross it no matter what. Then, don't be easily emotional, whether it's the fourth master or someone else. No matter how good they are to you, you have to remember that you can be nice to them just as well, but no matter what, you have to keep your heart and always give a little less than their affection, so that you don't get hurt when you have to get out. Finally, and most importantly, no matter how good or sad our days are, no matter how much dirt and darkness we have around us, we must keep a 'lotus heart' - like a lotus flower, we must come out of the mud without staining, and clear ripples without demons, this is the minimum heart. Do you understand?"
Qian repeated the three words I had said to her, smiled and said, "Understand, although it seems difficult, I will try to do it." ”
I nodded and said, "There are a lot of lessons in this courtyard, we just need to look at it coldly and think about it, but don't learn it, it's hard to keep our hearts, but no matter how difficult it is, we have to try." Since you call me sister, I will also treat you as a sister, no matter what happens to us, don't hide it, and have a discussion with each other, lest you be angry and don't understand that it's better to do something stupid. ”
This is also a reminder and expectation to the Qian family openly and secretly, and seeing her nodding in agreement, she can only secretly hope that she can really do it. I don't deny that I am also selfish about her goodness, but this selfishness has no evil thoughts, I just hope that she will not be the second Chun'er, and I hope that she is really that blessed person.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether she is Niu Hulu or not, the important thing is that since the Niu Hulu clan in history did not appear, then I will help Qian become "her" no matter what, and then let her son sit in that position and really fight for a Qingning for herself. Since she is destined to be unstable in this world, she has no choice but to ask for a worry-free future, this selfishness will only bring great help and blessings to the Qian family, and what she wants is only the reward that she can give within her ability.
As he spoke, it was August, and few people in the house mentioned Degege's affairs, and everyone began to be busy with the Mid-Autumn Festival half a month later. After the rights of the Li family's stewards were withdrawn, the affairs of the palace returned to the control of the Ulanala clan.
After withdrawing himself and Xiao Shunzi from Degege's case, he rarely asked about the progress of the case, but after Xiao Shunzi resumed walking around the front yard every day, he often brought some news.
One of the things I didn't expect the most was that the missing grandmother was Li's nurse, she had a son, who was the same age as Li's, and went out to earn a living very early, but before Degege's accident, someone saw him come back, and then his whereabouts were unknown, and there was no news.
Following this clue, the people from the Criminal Department found out where he lived and made some discoveries, but the man was a good man, and the Criminal Department accidentally startled the snake at that time and let him run away. But the whereabouts of the grandmother have not been found. So Yinzhen and the people from the Criminal Department heard that this person was extremely filial to his mother, so they made a dangerous move, and at the same time released a word, deliberately saying that the grandmother was caught and was now locked up in Baylor's mansion, trying to lure him out. So the house seemed to be calm, but in fact, it was already full of heavy soldiers, just waiting for that person to appear.
In order to be afraid that someone would leak the news, not many people knew about it, Yinzhen also suspected that Li was the person behind the scenes, afraid that she would have other actions against me, so she secretly monitored her yard, and was afraid that she would do something to me again, so she specially asked Xiao Shunzi to tell me not to walk around these days, so as not to encounter danger.
I listened to what Xiao Shunzi brought back, and I always felt that this matter was a little strange now. It stands to reason that if the Li family is the mastermind behind the scenes, then if he can make such a meticulous murder plan, why should he use someone so close to him to do it. In this way, if the matter is revealed, won't it be directly involved? Could it be that the Li family will take a dangerous move because there is no one available? It's just that I can't even convince me of this possibility, and I don't know what she wants to do.
But these things have nothing to do with me at the moment, I just explained them to everyone in the courtyard according to Yinzhen's intentions, and asked them to pay attention to themselves. Xiao Shunzi was also worried that the person behind this matter would have a trick for me to jump off the wall in a hurry, so she asked herself to temporarily replace Yunhui and serve and take care of her with Wanqing, in case of accidents.
