Chapter 117: Mingyue's view
Zhong Liyue paused while eating, feeling a little weak, if Mingyue asked later, how should she answer?
"Eldest sister, did the eldest young master accept you as a room?"
Sure enough, she asked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhong Liyue immediately denied it: "No! She lowered her head and continued to eat, pretending to be calm.
"But it's rumored in the house that the eldest young master went out to find you, and he is very important to you, if that's not what he means, why would he go to you in person?"
"Do you need to ask? Because we owe him three hundred taels! ”
Isn't that far-fetched? Mingyue looked at her suspiciously, with a look of disbelief.
He ...... It's because of guilt, you know? We have been wronged. Have you heard about Chen Po's arrest? Zhong Liyue diverted the focus of the topic.
"That Mrs. Chen in the kitchen? When I heard about it, I just didn't know what I had done. Mingyue fell into sorrow again: "You really have to be careful everywhere when doing things in a big family, and if you are not careful, you may make a big mistake." ”
"By the way, did you work in the kitchen with Chen Po before?"
Mingyue nodded puzzled, "Yes!" She was a picker in the kitchen, and when she heard that she was lonely and homeless, the kitchen steward saw that she was pitiful, and specially allowed her to live in the kitchen and guard the kitchen at night. The maids in our subordinate room disliked her and did not allow her to live in the subordinate room. ”
"Dislike her? Why? ”
"Because she is withdrawn and difficult, does not like to deal with people, and sometimes reprimands them, they don't want to share a room with her."
Her personality is indeed a little weird, Zhong Liyue nodded, she has a bad personality, and everyone really hates it!
"Eldest sister, why did you suddenly ask about her?" Mingyue asked confusedly.
Zhong Liyue guided her to recall the events of that day: "Think about it, on the day the kitchen caught fire, did you bump into her in anything unusual? Close your eyes and think about it carefully. ”
"Somewhere different?" Mingyue closed her eyes and tried to recall, and many images kept flashing through her mind, "It seems that she is talking to someone." ”
Zhong Liyue's eyes lit up, and she immediately reminded: "She has a withdrawn and difficult personality, who will she talk to?" Is that person tall or short, male or female? ”
"Like...... It's a man. ”
"Do you see his face clearly? What does he look like, is he from the house? What are you wearing? ”
Mingyue tried hard to recall, but she couldn't think of any related pictures anymore.
Zhong Liyue urged her to think about it again, but she really couldn't remember.
"Eldest sister, what the hell are you asking this for?"
Zhong Liyue looked at the innocent Mingyue, hesitating whether to tell her or not, she tentatively said: "Mingyue, have you ever thought that the kitchen fire may have been deliberately framed by others?" ”
"Frame me?" Mingyue shook her head without thinking about it, and said, "Who will frame me?" I've always been very careful in my affairs in the house, and I haven't offended anyone. ”
"It's not your personality, it's that you may have stumbled into someone else's secret, and this person wants to kill someone." Zhong Liyue narrowed her eyes slightly, and said deeply: "But then you didn't say that thing, and that person guessed that you might not have seen anything, so he gave up." Didn't you say you were dozing off in the kitchen at the time? If you don't wake up in time......"
Mingyue's face turned white, and she said in horror: "That fire was deliberately set by someone, and he wants to burn me?" ”
Zhong Liyue hurriedly pressed Mingyue's shoulder, and said softly: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's possible that I guessed randomly." Don't you think you're doing well now? ”
Mingyue was stunned for a moment, "Yes, I'm fine now, no one wants to harm me!" ”
"Well, it means that you don't pose a threat to others, but you are just a weak person who has done something wrong." Zhong Liyue thought about it for a while, but decided to tell her what she knew: "That fire was set by Chen Po, and the chief housekeeper has already mastered the evidence, and we are about to regain our freedom." ”
"Why would she do that?" Mingyue didn't understand.
"Maybe it has something to do with the person she was talking to!" Zhong Liyue said in a deep voice. There are really a lot of secrets in this Shen Mansion, the night she and Chun Qiao and her lover were arrested, someone also came to save them, I don't know if Shen Zhaoyan found out this person.
"She's no different from others, except for her personality that is not easy to get along with, we don't usually have any holidays." Mingyue said in her arms.
Zhong Liyue ended the topic apologetically and said something happy: "Don't think about it anymore, anyway, she was arrested, we have regained our innocence, and we can get out." Or do you think about what we're going to do in the future? If my parents knew, they would be very happy. ”
Mingyue turned from worry to joy, "Well, not only them, the third sister, the fourth sister and the fifth sister will be very happy, we finally don't have to be people for the rest of our lives." But she still had lingering palpitations, "However, can the eldest young master really restore our innocence?" What if I can't find out? ”
"Don't worry! Even if I can't find out, I have other ways to solve this debt. Zhong Liyue swore and comforted her.
Mingyue looked at Zhong Liyue deeply and said suspiciously: "Eldest sister, are you really ...... with the eldest young master?" ”
Zhong Liyue was speechless, Mingyue must have thought that the 'other way' she said meant being a concubine for Shen Zhaoyan. It's so contemptible! "Don't worry! I won't be the eldest young master's concubine. ”
"Eldest sister, I think the eldest young master really means that to you, during your absence, he will often ask me about you. Although Dad is not happy that we are concubines for others, but for a big family like the Shen family, even being a concubine is much better than making a main house for an ordinary rich family, and Dad will not disagree when he knows it. Mingyue comforted Zhong Liyue in turn.
"He's thinking about the money we owe him! Everyone is looking forward to their sister and sister being the main house, you are good, you are a concubine with your eldest sister, you are really a powerful sister! Zhong Liyue was heartbroken.
"Of course I miss you too, but with a background like ours, being able to be a concubine in the Shen family is already an ancestor who burns high incense. Eldest sister, you don't still want to be a main house, do you? There was no contempt in Mingyue's tone, she was speaking purely according to traditional thoughts.
It is useless to communicate with different views. Zhong Liyue would not argue with her on this kind of issue, so she simply nodded and calmed down the question.
"Now that you've got a place, my dad is going to start worrying about my life's events. If I can regain my freedom, the first thing he will do is to arrange for my marriage, but I still want to do it for another two years and save a little more dowry! Mingyue began to fantasize according to the idea of getting the snow wronged.
Sister! You're only fourteen years old, can you not be in such a hurry? Zhong Liyue was already crazy in her heart, but she could only smile and say to her: "Dad will definitely find you a good family." ”
"If the two of us sisters can regain their innocence, a big stone in my father's heart should also fall." Mingyue nodded, full of anticipation.
"Well, it's our turn to be filial to them." Zhong Liyue said with a smile. But she began to worry in her heart, if she and Shen Zhaoyan didn't make it to the end, would her father force her to marry every day?
In fact, her worries were purely superfluous, and she didn't know Shen Zhaoyan well enough. Once the man of the Shen family falls in love, he will die and will not let go again, it is impossible! (To be continued.) )
