The affairs of the Fang family have always been the most attention-grabbing, but the affairs of the Fang family are not so easy to hear, since a person who has come back from the capital can know about this matter, presumably this matter has been spread in the capital.

I only heard Qinghe continue to whisper: "Mother Yang said that this rumor is about the third girl of the Fang family. Originally, the third girl of the Fang family and the second young master of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion were married, but who knew that in the late autumn and early winter, the second young master fell off the horse and fell to his death. Both families were very sad, and heard that the three girls were crying so much that their eyes were swollen. But for some reason, there were suddenly more rumors in the capital, saying that it was the third girl Kefu, and the second young master was killed by her.

The Fang family ignored this rumor at first, believing in the truth that 'rumors stop at the wise', and this rumor will be self-defeating in a few days. Unexpectedly, this rumor not only did not pass, but intensified, and the whole street was spreading. It is said that the Fang family complained to Dali Temple in anger, and the people of Dali Temple quickly arrested the few people who spread rumors at the beginning. After first interrogation, I found out that those people were instructed by a young lady from the Hou family. That young lady also likes the second young master, and now that the second young master is dead, she is jealous of the third girl of the Fang family. Girl, how can you say that such a vicious person would want to ruin the reputation of others? Also, isn't that Fang family very powerful? How dare they harm the third girl?"

Seeing that Qinghe was indignant for a while, and looked puzzled for a while, Lan Xin shook him helplessly, and said: "The capital is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and there are many nobles, and what they are fighting for is naturally greater interests, so their methods are naturally more ruthless than usual." ”

"Girl, isn't the capital terrifying?" asked Qinghe with round eyes.

"The water in the capital is very deep, and the relationship is complicated, so if you want to gain a foothold in the capital, you can't do it without enough wisdom and means. Seeing Qinghe's stunned appearance, Lan Xin smiled and comforted: "Okay, I'll just say it casually." Actually, I don't understand anything about things in the capital. Besides, no matter how deep the water is, it has nothing to do with us. ”

"But the eldest master and the second master of the Rong family are in the capital・・・・・・!

"By the way, the matter of the Fang family in the capital that you just said is already over, why do Mrs. Fang and the third girl still come to Xuzhou at the end of the year?" Lan Xin interrupted her, not wanting her to think about those boundless things. When it came to the Rong family's big house, she was also a little disgusted in her heart.

"Oh!" Speaking of gossip, Qinghe's spirit improved again, "It's because after that incident, the third girl became ill, and it is not clear to outsiders what the specific illness is, only that the Fang family is very anxious." Then I came to Xuzhou. ”

Lan Xin nodded and understood, remembering the appearance of the three girls when she first entered the warm pavilion today. On the surface, she is no different from ordinary people, but her eyes are a little hollow and straight. Thinking about that thing hit her hard. It's no wonder that when she speaks, Mrs. Fang will lose her temper like that.

However, after coming to Xuzhou, the three girls could not recuperate with peace of mind. The fifth girl is about to get married, and the third girl is burdened with such rumors, and the second lady will definitely not be happy. Qinghe continued.

That's natural, the second lady and mother and daughter are not the kind of people who can tolerate people, they must be making trouble. However, the third girl, Fang Ning, is the daughter of the Fang family's long house, and the fifth girl is the adopted son's concubine. The five girls want to fast and pray for blessings, I believe that is what they say to the outside world, and the specific situation is unknown.

Therefore, the slave maid guessed that the girl must have been angry with the second lady today. Speaking of this, Qinghe pursed her lips indignantly, "The second lady didn't dare to refute the old lady's words, nor did she dare to lose her temper at the eldest lady and the third girl, so she could only vent her anger on you, an outsider, the girl, without pressure." And the old lady, as long as what the second lady said was not too excessive, she would turn a blind eye and pass over. Afterwards, I sent someone to send some things over, which can be regarded as compensating for the girl's grievances. ”

Lan Xin laughed silently. There was indifference and bitterness in his smile, and he said with a smile: "No wonder my aunt always praised you for being smart when she was there, I didn't expect you to see things so clearly." ”

Qinghe said abruptly: "When I was chatting with Mother Yang, I was inspired. It's just that others envy the girl for being able to have a relationship with the Fang family, but how many people can taste the sourness in this?"

"Not necessarily, if you like to please and only think about clinging to the powerful, no matter how bitter things are, they will be happy. Lan Xin said lightly.

"But if the girl is really as you say, they will feel that the girl is shallow-eyed, and they will not look down on the girl. Qinghe muttered dissatisfiedly, "These powerful people are really difficult to serve. ”

The Lu family in the capital.

Ah Sheng took the brazier and hurried along the verandah. The two maids stepped forward to stop him, and without saying anything, they snatched the brazier in his hand, and said confidently: "Today, the third master's family came to Beijing for the New Year, and the brazier was not enough, so we took this." ”

"Hey, why did you snatch my brazier and give it back to me. Ah Sheng was anxious when he saw it, and shouted timidly, shouting and grabbing it.

The two little maids hurriedly dodged, and in the panic, the spark collapsed into the skirt of one of the little maids, and a hole soon appeared in the skirt. And the other little maid was not much better, and her hands were blistered by the sparks that splashed out. It's just that the two of them only cared about grabbing the brazier with Ah Sheng, and no one noticed this. Ah Sheng looked at the two people running away along the verandah, scratched his head, and returned to the wing room next to the large kitchen.

Ah Sheng walked out of the pantry again with a brazier. When the two little maids around the corner saw Ah Sheng, they glanced at each other and walked towards Ah Sheng with a smile. "Brother Ah Sheng!" the two saluted Ah Sheng.

"Hello two sisters. Ah Sheng held the brazier and said helplessly, looking at the two people timidly.

One of the maids said with a smile: "Sister Cuiying wants to make tea to greet a few sisters from Huzhou, and she is worried that the fire is too slow, so she ordered us to come out and light a brazier." I wonder if Brother Ah Sheng can help and give us this brazier?"

Without waiting for Ah Sheng to speak, another little maid said with a smile: "Brother Ah Sheng is the best, he likes to help people the most, and he will definitely be happy to help us." Isn't it, Brother Sheng?"

"Then Brother Ah Sheng agreed without speaking! The little maid who spoke first said with a smile, looked at the other little maid and smiled, took the brazier in Ah Sheng's hand and left.

"Hey!" As soon as Ah Sheng spoke, the two little maids tacitly quickened their pace, Ah Sheng scratched his head and muttered timidly: "I want to tell you that the brazier burns medium white charcoal." ”
