Although the days were uneventful, he was secretly glad that no disaster had happened, so he kept the peace of the Jiangnan side.

She has been thinking about the woman in white she met by the well that night these days, but unfortunately she has not been seen since the second day, and she is not at ease so that Ye Zi has searched the entire orchid garden, but to no avail. This is the first time someone on her turf has been able to disappear into thin air.

Before she knew it, she had come to the well again, and because of the rainy season, the mud by the well was particularly muddy, and she accidentally slipped and fell, and the dirty soil got on her cuffs.

She could only go to the firewood room to ask for water to clean it, and slowly stepped into the firewood room with her front feet, and several maids looked panicked when they saw her, especially when they saw that she was covered in mud, her hairpins were scattered, and there was a bruise on her face, and she didn't dare to speak, but only looked at each other.

"You scooped me a spoonful of water, and I just slipped and fell. He smiled embarrassedly, and didn't forget to add, "Just cold water." ”

"The master of the house has changed his clothes, and we will wash you immediately. One of the maidservants opened her mouth, and she could see that she was extremely nervous, and beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.

"Why are you so afraid of me?" He walked up to her, one hand against her chin, looking at her panicked appearance, she must know something, "A few days ago, where is the servant girl who disappeared in the firewood room?"

As soon as the words fell, the rest of the maidservants knelt down one after another, "The head of the family spared us, we don't dare to be lazy anymore, Su Qingshe...... She's gone, and we'll never get in the way of the head of the house like she did. ”

"What the hell is going on?" she let go of the maid's jaw and said in a much softer tone, "Why are you all so afraid of me, why is that handmaid who made Su Qing so scarred?"

"The head of the family, Su Qing, is just a maid who washes clothes and does chores, her family lives on her meager moonsilver, and she has a younger brother who is still in infancy, and she accidentally washed a piece of clothing before, so ...... She was whipped fifty times, Ah Qing's body was already weak, how could she bear such a ...... Torture ......"

"Who hit it?" Qi He's hand couldn't help but clench into a fist, and her eyes gradually turned red with anger.

"Yes......" Before the maid could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Ye Zi who was walking towards her, she looked up and down, "Master of the family, I've been looking for you for a long time, why don't you practice in the secret room at this time, what are you doing here?"

"I'm the head of the Orchid Garden, do I still need to report to you where I go?" He sneered, patted the mud on his body lightly, and glanced at the maid who was trembling on the ground, "Have you not found Su Qing's whereabouts for so long?"

"I really didn't find it, I asked the people in the firewood room the next day after you told me, and no one knew where she went, and I asked the doorman, and I didn't see her go out. Ye Zi hurriedly defended, "Family Master, I am heartfelt to you, you have to believe me." ”

"Ye Zi, I have been concentrating on cultivation these days, and I don't have this leisure to take care of the affairs of the Orchid Garden, it is true that you have a lot of worries, but you have to remember that you are just a maid picked up by Dongye Que halfway, I can trust him once, but there are some things that you should not cross the line. He walked up to Ye Zi and said slowly in her ear, biting the word "out of bounds" very hard.

Since the time when the master was there, I heard that there have been a lot of things in the orchid garden, although the master has always had the intention to rectify, but the effect is very little, it is obvious that Chen Yiyun did not pay attention to these details after taking over, it seems that no one has come forward to rectify the rules of the orchid garden for a long time, so this time she came to be this wicked person.

He left the firewood room, and Ye Zi followed behind her, not forgetting to glance at the few people kneeling on the ground viciously.

"Ye Zi, do you have anything to say?" Qi He returned to the room and saw Ye Zi standing outside the house and didn't dare to step in, "There is no one now, just the two of us, if you have something to say." ”

Ye Zi bit her lip, her eyes turned red all of a sudden, and she spoke with a crying tone, "Family master, I know that I am low, if it weren't for the young master looking at me pitiful, I wouldn't be blessed to come to Orchid Garden to serve you, before the young master left, I must take care of you, since I was picked up by him, I must listen to him, as for Su Qing's matter, I really don't know, I asked everything I could, and no one has seen her." ”

"Don't cry first, since she hasn't gone out, every room has been searched, and so much time has passed, I'm afraid that it will be more than lucky, and there are only two places left in the park that have not been found, one is the bottom of the lake, and the other is the bottom of the well, you go to these two places to see if you can find her." "He thought about it, there is indeed nowhere else to hide, the murderer who died unexpectedly in Liuzhu has not been found yet, and now there is another handmaid who died unexpectedly, these two things are really terrible to think about together.

Seeing the solemn expression, Ye Zi hurriedly explained, "Family master, you have to believe me, I really didn't deliberately hide anything, I did beat her a few times, and that was because she clumsily washed your clothes, and I was out of breath for a while...... I...... I knew I was wrong, and I would never hit people at will again. ”

Looking at Ye Zizhi's tears that she couldn't stop, she softened her heart, and she finally chose to believe in Ye Zi, after all, she had no other person to trust in this orchid garden.

"You go and see if you can find her first, if you die in the Orchid Garden, you must always give an explanation to those maids and her family, in short, you must see people in life, and you must see corpses in death. He handed his silk handkerchief to Ye Zi, "You wipe your tears, I haven't been back to the Orchid Garden for a long time, and there is no trustworthy person around me, you help me manage the Orchid Garden, I am very grateful to you, what I said just now is heavier, don't take it to heart." ”

"Then I'll go find someone to go to the bottom of the lake to fish. Ye Zi nodded, reached out and took the silk handkerchief, wiped the corners of his eyes, and then carefully put it away, "This silk handkerchief, I will return it to the family master after I wash it." ”

"No need, you just keep it, I still have some things, you can get busy first. ”

Ye Zi carefully closed the door for her, and closed the window, and only after listening to no movement in the house did she leave, but she was holding the silk handkerchief tightly in her hand, eager to tear it apart.

"Sister Ye Zi. The maidservants who passed by saw her from afar bowed their heads and saluted her.

"Go and call a boatman, there's a corpse lying at the bottom of the lake, and you have to get her out." When several handmaidens heard her words, they hurriedly agreed and hurried away.

Ye Zi walked to the lake angrily, she accidentally found that there was such a good-looking woman in the firewood room, she wanted to take advantage of her guilt for washing her clothes, hurt her and find a chance to take away her dedication to the master, but she didn't expect to be hit by Qi He that night, in order to hide people's eyes, she could only sink Su Qing into the lake, but she didn't expect Yi He to take this matter to heart.

......

"Hehe, we've just begun. Ye Zi stretched out his hand and threw the silk handkerchief in the lake, watching it flow along the flowing lake to an unknown place, "What I want, I will definitely get it, no matter what the price is." ”
