There was no dream all night, and when Lin Zhixuan woke up the next day, it was already three poles in the morning, she opened her eyes dimly, and she didn't know whether it was the Hou Mansion or the Lin Mansion in front of her, but she just habitually called: "Dongmei, bring a glass of water." ”

Chun Tao Xia Lan, who was waiting outside, was shocked when she heard this, the three girls woke up yesterday and were only called Qiu Ju, why did they start to cross them this morning and call them Dongmei?

Not to mention that they came to serve early this morning and found out that it was Qiu Ju and Dongmei who kept vigil for the girl last night.

"Dongmei ......" called and did not respond, and Lin Zhixuan called again.

Chun Tao ordered someone to call Dongmei to come, and at the same time rushed to pour the water herself, and came over with the water, slightly helped Lin Zhixuan and fed her mouth.

Lin Zhixuan took a sip of water before slowly seeing the spring peach in front of her, slightly surprised: "Are you still there?"

Chun Tao looked at Lin Zhixuan's eyes, let alone what she said, and didn't know how to answer, so she saw Lin Zhixuan look around the room again, and suddenly surprised and lost in her eyes: "I'm still ......"

Seeing that Lin Zhixuan was still talking nonsense, Dongmei was already called in a daze, and gave Lin Zhixuan a salute: "Girl." ”

Lin Zhixuan looked at the immature Dongmei, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Where is Qiu Ju?"

When Dongmei asked, she glanced at Chun Tao Xia Lan at a loss, but Lin Zhixuan stared at her straight, and she had no choice but to answer: "Sister Qiu Ju was taken away early in the morning, and I only heard the woman say from a distance that she wanted to check on the unauthorized entry and exit of someone after the key was placed on the door last night. ”

Lin Zhixuan only felt that it was dark in front of her, and she almost fainted, Qiu Ju was taken away early this morning, and it was almost noon at this time: "Why didn't you wake me up?"

Chun Tao hurriedly stepped forward to help Lin Zhixuan to give her a good breath: "The girl is seriously injured, she slept late last night, it is rare to sleep well, how dare we disturb the girl's good dreams with such a thing." ”

Lin Zhixuan looked at Chun Tao, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes, but she only said: "Serve me to change clothes, I want to see my mother!"

Seeing Lin Zhixuan struggling to get up, Chun Tao and Xia Lan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Girl, Mrs. and Mrs. They went to the Hidden Spirit Temple early in the morning to burn incense and pray for blessings. ”

Lin Zhixuan's action was stagnant: "Who took Qiu Ju away?"

Chun Tao said: "When my wife left, I handed over the affairs of the family to the second grandmother. ”

Lin Zhixuan frowned when she heard this, fell into deep thought, and then slowly lay down, she remembered the two things that Qiu Ju said to her last night, and muttered for a long time before she said steadily: "Chun Tao, you go to the second sister-in-law's room and say that I want to invite her to dinner at noon today." ”

Chun Tao was taken aback again, and she didn't have time to react for a while, so she only let out an "ah".

Lin Zhixuan looked at her very impatiently, and raised her voice: "Dongmei, you go!"

Dongmei hurriedly responded, and Chun Tao came back to her senses: "Girl, I'll go, Dongmei is too young, and I'm afraid I can't speak clearly." ”

Lin Zhixuan glared at her, but she didn't refute after all, she didn't agree with Chun Tao's words, she was just afraid that she would do things absolutely on the bright side, and they got along with each other in private, and Chun Tao would squeeze Dong Mei, after all, there was a saying that Chun Tao said well, Dong Mei and Qiu Ju are still too young, they are not yet in the climate in this mansion, and everything has to be done step by step.

Chun Tao saw that Lin Zhixuan did not refute, so she hurriedly went to Chen's place.

Lin Zhixuan stood up strongly, washed up a little, and ordered Dongmei to carefully arrange lunch, and asked Xia Lan to inquire carefully about how today's events alarmed the Chen family.

Chun Tao came back after a short time, saying that Chen had answered, but there was still some work to be done over there, and it would come a little later.

Xia Lan replied: "This matter is very troublesome, and the mansion is shaken, but I don't know what's going on outside." Early this morning, the second grandmother and the eldest grandmother sent the wife and the eldest lady together. The four girls came to see the girl together, the girl was still asleep at that time, and the wife didn't let it be alarmed, and then the two grandmothers sent the two wives and the four girls out to Lingyin Temple, and the eldest grandmother then left, and the second grandmother sent the eldest grandmother away when it was still fine, and then went back to the room, and it didn't take long to hear the second grandmother get angry, and began to send someone to carefully check the maid who did not return after the key to the courtyard door last night, Qiu Ju was also taken away for questioning, as well as Gu's mother in the kitchen and the second girl's room opened the door Liu's mother-in-law, I heard that the girl who was caught was kneeling in the yard of the second grandmother for almost half a day。 ”

Lin Zhixuan lowered her head and muttered for a moment, and only said to Xia Lan: "You go down, and you can cook today's meals with Dongmei, and make them according to your sister-in-law's preferences." ”

Xia Lan didn't know what Lin Zhixuan thought, but she was still respectful.

Chun Tao looked at Lin Zhixuan, only to feel more and more uneasy.

Chen came at two o'clock in the afternoon, and only her dowry maid Liu Xiang was followed behind her, and no other maids and women followed.

Lin Zhixuan listened to Dongmei's reply, nodded slightly, and soon heard the footsteps, Chun Tao Xia Lan hurriedly stepped forward to open the curtain, and saw that Chen was wearing a silk pink and blue jacket, a green gold Luo skirt, and a mink cloak, only wearing a gold, jade and two hairpins, and the hair ornament was also very homely, and greeted him with a smile: "Oh, my good sister, why are you still up, hurry up to the bed and lie down." When my wife was leaving, she told me to take care of my sister, and I should have come to dinner with my sister at noon. You don't know how to cherish yourself so much, looking at the dishes on this table, you must have thought about it again, but it really tormented me. ”

Chen couldn't help but push Lin Zhixuan back to the bed, and waited for her to put a pillow behind her, ordered someone to clean up the food on the big table to the small table in front of the bed, and ordered someone to bring a brocade to let her sit in front of Lin Zhixuan's bed.

Very cool and thoughtful, Lin Zhixuan sighed in her heart.

Lin Zhixuan only left Xia Lan by her side to accompany her to eat, and had already instructed Dongmei and Chuntao to accompany Liu Xiang and them to eat and joke. The Chen family also smiled and nodded and asked Liu Xiang and them to take care of themselves, Lin Zhixuan just left one person here, and the Chen family could also help take care of it, so there was no need for a group of them to surround them here as if they were restrained.

After finishing the meal for a while, except for a few old mothers who were drinking tea outside to prevent summons in the house, the other little maids also went to have lunch separately, Chun Tao and Dong Mei accompanied Liu Xiang to have a small game in their own room, which was arranged by Lin Zhixuan, and what to inquire about and what to ask was also instructed by Lin Zhixuan in advance.

Although Lin Zhixuan is not optimistic about Chun Tao's speech and behavior, but Chun Tao and Liu Xiang are fellow villagers, and their relationship is extraordinary.

In this house, Xia Lan had already laid out the dishes for Lin Zhixuan and Chen, Lin Zhixuan smiled and gave Chen a dish for a while, the two talked about the dishes for a while, very affectionate, Lin Zhixuan said: "I heard the commotion outside early in the morning." I don't know what's going on. ”

When Chen heard this, he knew that Lin Zhixuan was asking about today's matter.
