Chapter 12 Danger
Coquettish?
Lin Zhixuan was slightly stunned, and then smiled bitterly, after all, she is not the little girl who only plays in front of her mother, she is used to the identity of Mrs. Houfu, and what she thinks of in advance is to argue, reason, and talk about evidence, where would she think of the soft language coquettish that is extremely inconsistent with her identity and age. Besides, coquettish and soft-spoken, Mrs. Wang is only "mostly" able to respond, there are always some things that she will not respond, and with Lin Zhixuan's understanding of her mother, Lin Ruoxuan's affairs are in this unresponsive matter.
But Qiu Ju's words also made her think about it again, what she wanted to do, her mother couldn't tolerate it, so if she did something wrong, her mother would definitely forgive her, even if she didn't forgive, she would not bear to be responsible for seriously hurting her mother now.
Lin Zhixuan's mind was full of thoughts, and it took a long time before she took a deep breath and slowly opened her eyes, her eyes were firm and bright: "Qiu Ju, what time is it?"
Qiu Ju didn't know why Lin Zhixuan asked like this, so she only said: "It's about the second watch, and each room is going to be keyed." ”
"You go and do something for me. ”
Listening to the solemnity in Lin Zhixuan's words, Qiu Ju hurriedly got up: "Yes." ”
Lin Zhixuan waved off the bed curtain and looked at Qiu Ju, who hurriedly stepped forward to lift the bed curtain.
Lin Zhixuan said seriously: "This matter is not only useless, but has been, I also tried it with my heart, whether I can protect you, I can't say everything." ”
Lin Zhixuan took the words to try Qiu Ju, although she said so, but Lin Zhixuan had a plan in her heart, once the incident happened, she would protect Qiu Ju desperately, just to remind her of the strictness of this matter, so that she must be cautious and careful.
Qiu Ju was also shocked when she heard Lin Zhixuan say this, her brows furrowed and her thoughts turned three times, and then she looked up at Lin Zhixuan and said, "If the slave doesn't do this, the girl won't be able to sleep well tonight, right?"
Lin Zhixuan didn't expect her to ask, but she also nodded.
"The girl will not only let Qiu Ju do this, but also look up to Qiu Ju, Qiu Ju but according to the girl's orders. ”
Lin Zhixuan's eyes were hot, but she only said: "You go and get ten taels of silver immediately, and while we haven't given the key here, let the kitchen boil a few buckets of hot water and send it to the second sister, you wait there for her to pull out the cold poison in her body and then come back." ”
Qiu Ju stared at Lin Zhixuan in surprise, what Lin Zhixuan said was not much different from what she had guessed in her heart, but she still couldn't believe that such a bold decision came from the timid and cowardly third girl.
Besides, Lin Zhixuan is easy to say, but if she wants to do it, it will be as difficult as the sky.
Among the difficulties, how could Lin Zhixuan not know that although their Lin Mansion is not a princely mansion, it can be regarded as a family of eunuchs, and Mrs. Wang, who is in charge of the family, is from a Jinling family, and the rules in the house are also very strict, which is not much better than the family of the family.
Whenever it goes night, after the mother-in-law who patrols the night has checked the rooms, each house and each courtyard must be keyed, not only to prevent the guards from stealing, but also to prevent the girls in the family from messing around and cleaning up the house.
This is the old rule of the family, the big rule, but few serious people dare to commit crimes against the wind.
But Lin Zhixuan also knows that when the family business is big, it will never be a flood of clear water, and there must be countermeasures under the policy, after all, the Lin Mansion has not lost things and messed with people over the years.
But in addition to this, the kitchen also has to be keyed every night, although there is a mother-in-law on duty, but who is this mother-in-law, is she willing to help, will she denounce it, and how to open the courtyard door of the second girl, how to send water in......
Lin Zhixuan looked at Qiu Ju's slightly pale face, she naturally knew that this girl was afraid, this was a matter of hitting the board and falling out once she was caught, how could a second-class maid like her, who could be promoted to the first class as long as she worked diligently for a few years, be willing to take this risk.
It was indeed difficult for her, but Lin Zhixuan continued: "I know it's difficult to do, but it's not that it can't be done......"
Lin Zhixuan recruited Qiu Ju and explained in her ear.
Qiu Ju listened to Lin Zhixuan's word-by-word arrangement, and her mind was also moved, Lin Zhixuan's words were not bold words, she had thought about it carefully, and listening to her, Qiu Ju suddenly felt that this matter might also have something to do.
Qiu Ju opened her mouth as if she had made up her mind: "Girl, the money box is in the hands of Sister Chun Tao, can this matter be discussed with Sister Chun Tao?"
Lin Zhixuan didn't seem to expect this, she forgot that Qiu Ju was not the big girl in her house now, and the matter of silver money was naturally not in her hands, her brows furrowed tightly, and she only said: "No, you know this matter, tonight, even Dongmei doesn't have to let her know." It's just that in this way, it's a little difficult to do without money......"
Qiu Ju saw Lin Zhixuan's brows furrowed again, but it was getting late outside the window, and if she hesitated, she would not be able to get out, Qiu Ju had made up her mind to do it, so she said: "Girl, Qiu Ju has saved a few taels of private money over the years, Qiu Ju has no father or mother, she only knows how to serve the girl, and this silver is useless, if she can afford to use the girl, it is also Qiu Ju's blessing." ”
When Lin Zhixuan heard this, her heart was also warm, she naturally knew that it was okay for the girls in the house to have parents, and there were some subsidies in the family when she got married.
Lin Zhixuan only held Qiu Ju's hand tightly: "Qiu Ju, I won't let your hard work today be in vain, when you get married in the future, I will personally add a box for you." ”
When Qiu Ju saw Lin Zhixuan say this, her cheeks were also crimson: "What is the girl doing with this." Qiu Ju was willing to go because Qiu Ju could see that the girl treated Qiu Ju very well, as well as the second girl. Qiu Ju believes that if Qiu Ju falls into trouble one day, the girl will definitely help Qiu Ju like this. ”
Lin Zhixuan listened, and suddenly remembered the events of her previous life, Qiu Ju in her previous life, and her tragic death, Lin Zhixuan suddenly felt ashamed in her heart, and gradually turned her eyes red, Qiu Ju saw that Lin Zhixuan was sad, and hurriedly smiled and coaxed her: "Qiu Ju has not been protected by her father and mother since she was a child, she only knows who is loyal to her master, and she only knows who is good to me and who I am good to." It is also God's mercy, let Qiu Ju follow the girl, what the girl said to Qiu Ju, Dongmei and the second girl, whether it is a joke or not, Qiu Ju can remember it, the girl said that she will protect Qiu Ju in this life, and Qiu Ju can only be a girl wholeheartedly. ”
Lin Zhixuan nodded tearfully, and carefully told her how to deal with the situation, and also instructed her to call Dongmei to keep vigil, not to alarm Chun Tao and Xia Lan.
Chun Tao and Xia Lan are first-class maids, two people in one room, and second-class maids like Qiu Ju Dongmei originally lived together with the four of them, but it happened that the second-class maid was only the two of them, although there were extra beds, the two of them lived spaciously.
Qiu Ju hurriedly left Lin Zhixuan's boudoir and returned to her residence lightly, Dongmei was just about to fall asleep, only to hear the door "squeak" open, and hurriedly got up to see: "Sister, why are you back? Didn't the girl let you keep vigil?"
