In the afternoon, Zhiwu Garden. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The third lady, Ho, did not take a nap as usual, she sat at the table with an unhappy face, and a handful of broken silver was scattered on the table.

The magpie stood aside sleepily, and suddenly heard He complain loudly: "A group of children are engaged in fundraising, and the adults can just take a look, so what kind of fun can they follow......?

The magpie was so frightened that it fell asleep and cautiously moved back.

He Shi was also shocked and closed his mouth stupidly.

In my heart, I was still thinking about the tea party I had just gone to in the morning.

She happily went to participate in the tea party of the ladies in the capital, who would have thought that a group of people would not enjoy the flowers or see the scenery, and all their energy was used in fundraising. It is said that the juniors are especially worried about the country and the people, and they are generous, and the adults can't let the children compare, and let the world see that women also have great achievements.

He Shi had a headache when he remembered that everyone had openly and secretly mentioned the amount they wanted to donate, and hated himself for what kind of tea he was eating, a bowl of tea didn't taste good, and he had to fold a large sum of money.

Last time, the old lady came up with the idea and took the Shen family's dowry as more than 3,000 taels of silver. paid off the arrears of the garment shop and the big kitchen, filled up the stolen public funds, and divided half of the old lady, and she had only a hundred taels of silver left, and the capital of accompanying them was not made up, where was the money to donate.

I wanted to coax it, and the scene would be over, but I thought of Qi's smiling expression when he came back......

"Although this is a personal intention, but in the end, we are in the same place, how many brothers and sisters are expected to talk to me first, and we can advance and retreat together. ”

What is advancing and retreating together, it is clear that she has no money and is stingy!

He Shi was so angry that his teeth itched: "It's just a concubine, and she dares to laugh at me." ”

The magpie stood behind her and muttered silently in her heart: "Although she is a concubine, the Qi family is a famous scholarly family in the south of the Yangtze River, and the old lady Qi only has this one daughter, which is very favored, and it can be seen that he can personally guide Xiao Sanye in making art." Back then, the old lady asked to marry the second lady for the second master, but it took a lot of effort. Although the second lady's dowry is not very rich, it is quite considerable compared to you. ”

The magpie quietly raised his eyes, and his gaze fell on He's face and left as soon as he touched it.

I don't blame the second lady for squeezing you, your hands are indeed smaller......

He didn't know what the magpie was thinking, she pulled a few pieces of silver in front of her in distress, frowned and thought for a while, and told the magpie: "Put them all away." ”

The magpie glanced at He quietly, and saw that He had a faint ruthlessness on his face, and then wanted to take a closer look, He had already returned to bed and closed his eyes to recuperate, and he couldn't see the clue.

The magpie packed up his things and retreated silently.

In the afternoon, everything was as usual, and in the evening, the magpie served He Shi with dinner, and when he was about to serve her to change clothes and go to bed, he heard He say, "Find me a dark gown." ”

The magpie was stunned, and he didn't know why, but he answered very neatly, and quickly turned out a dark purple jacket from the bottom of the cage.

"Madame, do you want to see this?"

He nodded with satisfaction. "That's it, help me put it on. ”

The magpie quickly changed her clothes and said carefully: "Madame doesn't wear this heavy color in her spare time, why do you think about changing it today?"

He Shi was already sitting in front of the dresser, and when he heard this, he said: "Don't worry about this, first take off these Raush seeds for me and put them in a simple bun." ”

The magpie didn't dare to ask any more, so he quickly dismantled He's high bun and twisted it into a simple style.

He nodded with great satisfaction, and praised her: "The people in the courtyard are only the most intimate ones you serve." ”

The magpie pursed her lips and smiled: "It's not that Madame is good at training on weekdays, otherwise the slave knows something." ”

He Shi chuckled, looked her up and down, and said, "You also go and change into dark clothes." After thinking about it, he said, "Pick up another lamp." ”

The magpie replied and went down to change into an inconspicuous garment and came back, carrying a dead wind lamp in his hand.

He didn't say anything, waited until he beat the second watch drum, and motioned for the magpie to follow her out.

The magpie didn't dare to ask anything, helped He quietly out of the courtyard door, and followed all the way to the west.

The night was getting darker, and they walked quietly along the way, and met two mothers-in-law who were patrolling the night on the way, and He said: "It's nothing, I'll follow the old lady's wishes to patrol around." The mother-in-law who kept vigil thought she was checking the post and sent the two away diligently.

When he arrived at the closed gate of the Shen family's former residence, the magpie couldn't help but say, "Madam, what are we doing here?"

The magpie's voice was as thin as a mosquito's call, but it still startled Ho. He glared at her angrily and said, "Why did you suddenly make a noise, it scared me." ”

But the magpie didn't care to please her, and said again tremblingly: "Madam, what are we doing here......?

He covered her mouth. "Don't talk nonsense, do you really want to bring that kind of thing?"

The magpie hurriedly closed its mouth.

He Shi was also panicked in his heart, looking at the door of the black hole, and wanted to turn around, but thinking of Qi's ridicule, which was not yin and yang, he might be ridiculed and squeezed by a group of rich ladies tomorrow, so he dared to grow on both sides, gritted his teeth and fixed his feet.

"Go, push the door open, don't make too much noise. ”

The magpie stepped forward and gently pushed the door open a gap for people to pass through, and the two groped their way into the courtyard.

In Shen's yard, magpies followed He in the past. Now that time has passed, in the face of the desolation of the courtyard, the magpie sighs in his heart, and dilutes a lot of fear.

He Shi had no time to sigh, she was terrified with every step she took, and she relied on her will to support her decline.

He took the magpie all the way to the back room, and against the heavy brass lock, He took a deep breath and took out a key from his arms.

This key is different from the one that Mama Wei used that day. Mama Wei's handful is old in color, and at first glance it looks like an old thing, with the same pattern as the copper lock engraved on it. And the copper in He's hand is bright and shiny, and it looks newly created, and it is bare without any pattern decoration, which is very incommensurate with the brass lock.

He Shi exerted a few efforts, but failed to twist the lock, and was a little deflated, when he suddenly heard a "click", and the copper lock was opened.

He Shi showed ecstasy on his face and said: "This locksmith is quite powerful, and it is really matched, and it is not in vain that I spent a lot of money." ”

In the panic of leaving that day, the old lady instructed her to help lock the box, and she took advantage of the old lady and Mama Wei not paying attention, and left a box to hang the lock without a lock.

She thought maybe she could find an opportunity to come over and get some quietly.

And everything went so smoothly, as if God helped her, after returning to the small mountain house, the key fell to the ground in a panic and was picked up by her sharp eyes.

She immediately asked the magpie to go out and get one back, and then found an opportunity to quietly return the key. Neither the old lady nor Mama Wei found out that the key had been lost.

He secretly rejoiced, and the magpies on the side were dumbfounded.
