Cui Sleeve went to the big kitchen to return the food box for breakfast, and as soon as he stepped into the "Wen Han Residence", Shui Lan greeted him and said: "Sister Cui Sleeve, the eldest lady and the second lady are looking for you." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Yesterday, when the courtyard gate was about to be locked, her brother sent Wu'er to tell her, saying that the matter had been done and reassured her. But what happened, she didn't know the specific situation, and she was a little apprehensive. Seeing that it was Shui Lan, he asked, "Have you gone to the East Corner Gate?" ”

Shui Lan replied: "Go, after I saw the Xu family's carriage leave, I came back to report to the second lady." But the second lady was very angry, and the eldest lady said to look for you. Sister Cui Sleeve, I don't know what is going on, you have to be careful. "Cui Sleeve is the son of the Tu family, he is safe, and he is willing to take care of the little girl. Among the little maids, there are quite a few popularity. Shui Lan saw that the situation was wrong, and she was really worried about her.

Cui Sleeve knew this, and he didn't know what tricks his brother used. But on the whole, the Xu family set off on time and there was no shortage of horses. But she believes in her brother and will never lie to her, there must be something wrong with this, which she doesn't know.

Calming down, Cui Sleeves stepped into the wing, ready to meet Tu Manzhen's anger.

Seeing her come in, without waiting for her to finish her salute, Tu Manzhen grabbed an enamel teacup in her hand, threw it at her, and said angrily: "Cui Sleeves!" How dare you lie to me? ”

Where did Cui Sleeve dare to dodge, and the teacup slammed into her forehead. Tu Manzhen was in anger, and she was quite energetic, and this time, she suddenly smashed her head and broke her blood. Cui Sleeve replied bitterly: "Second Miss Hui, the slave doesn't dare." ”

"Don't dare? So tell me, what's going on? Shui Lan went to see it, the Xu family had horses and carts, but they didn't waste time at all. Tu Manfen held her palm on the side and asked coolly.

"Miss Hui, the horses at home yesterday were indeed sick. The veterinarian can testify to this, and I can bring her in if she needs it. ”

Tu Manzhen waved her hand impatiently and said, "Who is impatient to see him?" You go and see, where did the Xu family get the horses? ”

Cui Sleeves gave a salute and retired, and was afraid that Tu Manzhen would wait for a long time and her temper would be even greater. When he went out of the room, he simply covered his forehead with a handkerchief, and walked briskly towards the porch.

Tu Manfen in the room said: "Sister, I didn't say you, no matter how angry you are, you can't hit people with things." You have to change your impulsive nature. ”

Tu Manzhen snorted angrily and said, "A family maid, what if you smash it?" Can she still go to heaven? ”

Tu Manfen said with a straight face: "Because of this, you can't smash it." You are the master, she is a maid, and you don't have to do it yourself to punish her, this is one of them. Second, if you want to smash it, you can't hit it in the face, and it is easy to be known. If it spreads, you will inevitably lose your reputation as a bully and abuse your subordinates. ”

When Tu Manzhen heard this, she hurriedly said: "I didn't think about it so much, so it's okay this time, right?" ”

Tu Manfen nodded lightly and said, "When she comes back, just threaten her not to say it." Tu Manzhen was relieved.

But said that Cui Sleeves hurried to the corridor. At this time, due to the illness of the horses, several horsemen were busy working inside, cleaning the horse gallery, changing the forage, and feeding the horses medicine, but Du Caizhi was not seen.

One of the ten-year-old grooms, when he saw Cui Sleeve coming, asked, "Sister Cui Sleeve, are you coming to your brother?" ”

"yes, little rock. Is my brother not here? ”

"Steward Du went to the front academy, and said that he would go back when he went, and he had been gone for a while. I should be back soon, you can sit down first. After speaking, he looked at the chaos in the corridor, scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I'd better bring you a stool out and wait outside." ”

Cui Sleeve thanked him, took the wooden bench handed by the stone, and sat against the wall outside the courtyard of the corridor. She had been in a hurry before, and she hadn't felt any pain. At this time, as soon as I relaxed, I only felt that the wound in the forehead corner was tight, and there were bursts of throbbing pain. When I took off the handkerchief, I saw a large patch of bright red blood.

Looking at the blood, she only felt that her heart was beating faster and faster, and her eyes were dark, and she actually fainted. Cui Sleeve actually has blood sickness, but she doesn't know it herself. Everyone in the corridor was working in full swing, and no one noticed her fainting.

Half an hour later, Du Caizhi turned back to the corridor. Today, I went to the academy to borrow a horse, but fortunately, I knew each other on weekdays, and the king steward of the academy listened to him and lent him happily, and it was still a few good horses specially prepared by the academy for guests, which solved his urgent need.

I was in a hurry in the morning, and I didn't have time to say thanks. He brought two jars of wine to the king's steward as a token of thanks. The two chatted a little more, and he was worried about the sick horses in the corridor, so he said goodbye and came back.

Unexpectedly, before he went in, he saw his sister fainting by the courtyard wall. Du Caizhi's face changed greatly, he took a few steps forward, held up his green sleeves, and called: "Sister! Wake up! ”

Emerald Sleeves was pale and still unconscious. Du Caizhi saw the injury on her forehead, and a wave of anger rushed to his chest, I don't know which young lady did it, it's too bad! Holding the green sleeves, he shouted: "Stone! Stone! ”

The stone came out in response, and was startled when he saw this situation, and said, "Why did Sister Cui Sleeve faint?" She came just now, and I asked her to wait for you outside. ”

"Go get some water." Du Caizhi commanded.

The stone brought water, Du Caizhi fed Cui Sleeve to drink, and it took a long time before she woke up. Seeing his brother hugging him, he asked confusedly, "What's wrong with me?" ”

Du Caizhi suppressed his anger and said, "When I came back, I saw that you fainted. What's going on? Who hurt you? ”

Cui Sleeve bowed her head and said nothing, she didn't want her brother to face the second miss because of her. You must know that the Du family is the son of the third generation of the Tu family, and the net worth and life are in the hands of the Tu family. If the lord is unhappy and beats his subordinates to death or sells them, the government will not pursue them.

"If you don't say it, then I will know, it must be that Miss Tu Er."

Hearing this, Cui Sleeve shrank a little, grabbed Du Caizhi's sleeve, and said, "Brother, I'm fine." Don't ......."

Du Caizhi's eyes were heavy, and he said, "I know what you have to say, don't worry, I won't be so stupid." He helped her to her feet, and when he saw that the wound on her forehead was no longer bleeding, he asked, "Is it better?" ”

"Well, it's better, and my head is no longer dizzy. I'm here to ask what happened early this morning. ”

In advance of this morning's incident, Du Caizhi smiled bitterly and sighed: "Speaking of which, I am called smart but mistaken by smart." Yesterday I gave some medicine to the horses, of course not Croton, but I made them sick for a day or two, and then I called a veterinarian. Then pinched the time, and after Wu'er told you, he went to Qingzhuyuan to find Miss Xu. I thought that the courtyards would soon be locked, and even if Miss Xu knew, there was nothing she could do. In this way, I can't blame myself for having no horses. ”

"And then?" Cuisleeve asked.

"After a night of nothing, I thought it was okay. I didn't expect Xu Le'an to block me at the end of the day. Although the words are very polite, the meaning is very clear. If the Xu family didn't have a horse, we would not be happy, and we had a posture of tearing our faces, and then proposed to go to the academy to borrow a horse. This Miss Xu is very powerful, and for so much time yesterday, she came up with this only way. ”

"The only way?"
