Coming to the gate of Zhu Mansion again, Red Candle flinched a little, she will never forget that three years ago, she knelt in front of the door every day, begging Tao for mercy every day, but in exchange for insults and expulsion from the doorman.
She will never forgive Dow for the ordeal and humiliation that Dow brought to Miss and her.
Zhu Nian's left hand clasped the red candle's right hand, giving her stability and courage to face this family and Tao again.
Entering the gate of Zhu Mansion again, no more guards dared to step forward to stop him, Red Candle exhaled lightly, let Zhu Nian lead him, and walked into the threshold of Zhu Mansion with his head held high.
On the way back to Zhuyuan, I met many people, and they all respectfully saluted Zhu Nian, without a trace of transgression.
Seeing this scene, Red Candle was truly relieved for her own young lady, and she still remembered that the last time she saw this kind of scene was three years ago.
Among these subordinates, some of them had been in the mansion three years ago, and their eyes widened in surprise when they saw the red candle.
Zhu Nian returned to the bamboo garden with the red candle, it was already noon at this time, and the two second-class maids were sweeping the floor in the yard, and after seeing Zhu Nian, they all respectfully shouted "Miss", and then looked at the red candle curiously.
Fu Yue stood at the door of the north wing, waiting for Zhu Nian to return.
This morning, she received Zhu Nian's order to watch the servants move the two boxes of clothes that Tao had sent into Zhu Nian's room. When she returned to the north wing after finishing everything, she found that the young lady was gone, and after asking Cai Ning, she learned that the young lady had changed into men's clothes and hurriedly left the house.
She had never seen Zhu Nian go out of the house to do things so eagerly, so she always had a faint worry in her heart, so she kept waiting in front of the door of the north wing.
Seeing Zhu Nian come back, Fuyue's hanging heart finally let go, she walked to Zhu Nian's side with a smile, called "Miss", and then said coquettishly to Zhu Nian: "Miss, why are you going out, Fuyue is so worried!"
Zhu Nian also smiled, she stretched out her index finger and lightly tapped Fuyue's nose and said, "Then I will report to you every time I go out in the future." ”
"Miss, don't make fun of Fuyue. Fuyue lowered her head embarrassedly and shook her body.
At this time, she noticed the red candle behind Zhu Nian, and she looked puzzled: "Miss, who is this girl?"
Zhu Nian pulled the red candle over, pushed her in front of him and introduced: "Her name is Red Candle, she is my personal maid in the past, and she grew up with me since childhood. ”
"Oh, it's Sister Red Candle, Fuyue has seen Sister Red Candle. Fuyue nodded and saluted the red candle.
"But, why haven't I seen Sister Red Candle before?" Fu Yue felt that Red Candle was raw, and she couldn't remember this person after thinking about it for a long time.
Speaking of this, everyone was silent, and both Zhu Nian and Red Candle had a hint of pain on their faces.
Zhu Nian didn't explain, and beckoned everyone into the house: "Let's all go into the house, I'll bring Red Candle and Cai Ning to get to know each other first, and then I'll talk to you about this matter in detail." ”
Fuyue then remembered that she had blocked the young lady at the door for a long time, so she stuck out her tongue embarrassedly and got out of the way.
After Zhu Nian saw Cai Ning with the red candle, he told Cai Ning, Fuyue and Red Candle to be close to each other like sisters in the future and coexist peacefully, and then told He Dachuan, Cai Ning, and Fuyue in detail about what she and Red Candle had experienced over the years.
After listening to what Zhu Nian said, she was full of anger, slapped the table fiercely, and then stood up: "How can this be reasonable, Mrs. is really too deceitful, I didn't expect her to be such a vicious person, I really want to beat her!"
Zhu Nian smiled angrily, stopped Fuyue to sit down, and then said: "Fuyue, don't break my table! Besides, if you want to hit Tao, it is estimated that you will not even touch the corner of her clothes, and you will be sent to the official mansion!"
"Huh?" Fuyue looked at Zhu Nian with a blanket expression, her stupid appearance made everyone in the room laugh.
The bamboo garden is peaceful and joyful at the moment, but the Shi'an Garden is a different scene.
The matter of Red Candle's return to the house was spread by the people, and everyone was talking about her being sent away that year.
This matter spread ten, ten, hundreds, and soon reached Liu's mother's ears.
At this time, Liu's mother was kneeling in front of Tao, and Tao listened to her report and slapped the table fiercely, and shouted screaming: "What?
Mother Liu was tortured under Dow's anger, and a lot of sweat broke out on her forehead: "Yes, madam. And...... Now people are rumoring that you ruthlessly sold the red candle to the Qinglou, and some people even speculate that everything you did back then was to rob the eldest lady's property. ”
Originally, people privately discussing Tao had already made Tao very angry, but their guesses were all right, which made Tao, who was already weak-hearted, even more annoyed.
Tao thinks that in the past three years, she has trained the people of Zhu Mansion very well, who would have thought that when this Zhu Xinnian came back, people would dare to chew her tongue in private.
"It seems that Zhu Xinnian is determined to fight me to the end!" Tao gritted his teeth and said word by word.
Liu's mother knelt on the ground and didn't dare to make a sound.
Tao suddenly looked down at Mother Liu: "From now on, if you find someone who chews your tongue in private, you can help me deal with them ruthlessly, and I don't have to pay the solution, right?"
"However, if we dispose of people privately, will it anger Zhu Xin. Mother Liu asked in a low voice, she also knew that this was an extraordinary time, and she had to follow Zhu's thoughts.
"What, now you're starting to lean towards Zhu Xinnian too?" asked Dow in a low voice.
"The slave and maid don't dare, the slave and maid are just afraid of ruining the lady's big thing. ”
"Hmph, even if I'm not the master of Zhu Mansion now, I still have a bit of status, if someone is guilty, can Zhu Xinnian still oppose me?" Dow said.
"Yes, ma'am. Mother Liu didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, but she still asked: "What about the red candle, what do we think about Zhu Xin?"
"Bear it!" Tao held his breath in his heart, but he could only endure it.
In the bamboo garden, Zhu Nian asked Cai Ning to find a new dress for the red candle to change, and let the red candle soak in a hot bath and dress up again.
The brand-new red candle came to the courtyard to see Zhu Nian, probably because she had just come out of the bath, her little face was flushed, and her skin could be broken.
The facial features of the red candle are already very exquisite, and when they are cleaned up like this, they look very beautiful, if it weren't for the slightly simpler clothes they were wearing, they could be compared with Zhu Yanran.
He Dachuan stood next to Zhu Nian and talked to Zhu Nian, because Zhu Nian was sitting with his back to the red candle, so He Dachuan took the first step to see the oncoming red candle.
When he saw the unpowdered, lovely-looking red candle fluttering over, his originally calm heart was pounding, and he couldn't take his eyes off the red candle, and there was a touch of red on his face.
Zhu Nian noticed He Dachuan's strange appearance, so she looked in the direction of his gaze, and when she saw it, she was also a little surprised and stunned.
The people who can follow her will not be bad as expected, Zhu Nian thought arrogantly in her heart.
Staring at He Dachuan's expression at this time, Zhu Nian had an idea in his heart: These two people are really a bit husband and wife, why don't they get together?
Zhu Nian smiled evilly, and actually "giggled" and laughed.
He Dachuan was pulled back to reality by Zhu Nian's voice, and said weakly: "Why is Miss laughing?"
Zhu Nian retracted his smile and said with a serious face: "It's nothing, you are going to the kitchen to ask for some food, and Red Candle has not eaten in the morning." ”
"Yes. He Dachuan replied lightly, then turned around and left the bamboo garden.
Zhu Nian stared at He Dachuan's figure and found that his steps were unusually eager.
Red Candle walked to Zhu Nian's side, looked at He Dachuan with a frown, and then said to Zhu Nian with some loss: "Why did He Dachuan run away when he saw me, am I so terrible?"
Zhu Nian stared at the red candle and said, "No, I just told him to help you go to the kitchen and ask for some food." ”
"Oh, I see. Red Candle smiled, her frown furrowed.
Zhu Nian looked at the changing expression of the red candle, and felt funny in his heart: these two people ......
He Dachuan brought back three dishes and one soup, and placed them on the stone table in the courtyard smoothly.
Zhu Nian looked at the food in front of him and swallowed in surprise: "Dachuan, even if you haven't eaten for three days, you will die after eating these!"
"Huh? I didn't think about it that much. He Dachuan scratched his head embarrassedly.
Zhu Nian looked at He Dachuan with a smile, but he didn't expect that the calm He Dachuan also had a time when he lost his mind, even if he liked others, he wouldn't bring such a whole thing!
When Red Candle saw the food, she was very happy, she hadn't eaten such a hearty meal for three years, and sometimes she couldn't even eat enough.
This meal, she ate very deliciously.
In the afternoon, Zhu Nian asked Fuyue and Cai Ning to look after the house, and she went out to visit the capital with Red Candle and He Dachuan.
