Chapter 114
"Why didn't you tell me something so important?"
This was the first time I had spoken loudly to Jade, and since she started following me, we have always chatted like friends, talked heart-to-heart, and worked hard to find the real culprit. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But today, I was angry with her, and it felt as disappointing as when I knew that Han Ma was a drop of blood.
"Miss...... I...... I just saw you rain that day and wanted you to have a good rest, so I ......"
Jade explained in a whisper, and in the silence of the night, such an explanation made people even more unsure of what to say.
"Jade, I know that after following me, you think about me everywhere and care about me everywhere, but did you look at what we agreed with each other at the beginning? Grandma Liu is a clue at home, if you hear anything about the family from her, you have to find a way to tell me in time, so that we can find clues and evidence to catch the real culprit. If you don't say this to me, what should I do? ”
"I ......" Jade was a little aggrieved.
"Miss, the old man's expulsion of the concierge family was carried out in secret. Except for Grandma Liu, no one in the family seems to know. I went to get you ginger soup that day, and before I got to the door, I heard someone whispering in the kitchen, saying something that asked her to quickly spread the news that Dayou's family had been kicked out of Liu's house. I wanted to tell you, but I've been depressed for the past few days, and I'm afraid it will make it worse if you say it, so I want to wait until you're in a better mood. Miss, believe me, I didn't mean to hide it. I just thought that since they wanted everyone in the family to know about it, but the news hadn't spread in the house until a week later, it meant that they had a plan again. In that case, why don't we wait and see what they do? ”
The room fell silent again, and Jade looked at me apprehensively, waiting for my reaction after hearing these statements.
"Since you heard them talking, did you hear that the other voice besides Grandma Liu was male or female?"
"It's a male voice, and it's a little hoarse."
Emerald Road.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure, miss, this voice seems to be deliberately low, but he pressed it too low, and there was a bit of a muddy tail."
"Would you recognize it if you heard it again?" I asked again.
"Yes, I will. But even if we find that man, how can we get him to keep his voice down? Jade was puzzled.
"I'll do that. Okay, you go to sleep, and we'll go back to home tomorrow. ”
"Miss?"
"How?"
"Have you forgiven me?" Emerald asked.
I looked at her nervous appearance, and couldn't help sighing, "Jade, I'm not really angry with you, I just feel unsteady in my heart, with my mother's normal temperament, how could I suddenly let my uncle pick someone for me and want to marry me off as soon as possible?" My father drove people out without informing me, and they ...... They're going to send me away......"
For a moment, neither Jade nor I said anything more.
On the morning of the second day, I put on a long gown to go out, and I was going to walk with Jade in the maid's room under the guise of a car, but I was stopped by Mu Bo, who was sent by my father and mother.
"Second Miss, my uncle is here, waiting for you in the front hall, so come with me."
Mu Bo said, climbed up and lowered his voice: "Uncle said that the young master who I talked to my wife yesterday came to Nanjing on an errand, and I happened to visit my uncle's house. I want the young lady to follow her over and see each other. ”
At this moment, Jade, who was following me, suddenly exclaimed in surprise and grabbed my arms with both hands.
"Second Miss!"
Before I could speak, Mu Bo immediately returned to normal. I saw him carefully examine the jade with his eyes, and scolded: "What are you doing without rules, don't you see me talking to the second lady?"
"Right...... I'm sorry butler, but I don't ...... Be...... Deliberately. Jade stumbled, as if she was really frightened by Mu Bo's stern expression.
I looked at it and comforted: "It's okay, Uncle Mu, this girl is timid and ignorant, Jade, you don't have to follow, Huixiulou will make me tea, collect a few books on the table, I'll go to the front hall to see and come back."
As he spoke, he wanted to follow Mu Bo to the hall.
"Second Miss!" Emerald shouted anxiously behind her.
"What's wrong?" I looked back and smiled, "You girl won't be scared, Mu Bo is my father's most powerful helper, he has always been very loving, don't worry, he won't punish you." Go back and wait for me. ”
"Miss, I'm ......"
Jade stopped talking, and the whole person seemed to return to the state after I spoke loudly last night.
"Jade, what's wrong with you, you won't get sick, right? Hurry back to the house and lie down, and I'll talk about anything when I get back. ”
Jade heard me say this, but finally gave up, "Okay, I'll go back to the house and wait for Miss first." ”
With that, Jade glanced at Mu Bo again, turned around and left.
I smiled and followed Mu Bo on his way to the front hall.
In the corridor, Mu Bo asked as he walked: "Miss is good to that girl, does she live with you in the embroidery building?"
"yes, what's the problem?"
I replied.
"Hehe, it's nothing, it's just that in the past, the second miss didn't want to be accompanied, even Han's mother also lived downstairs to take care of you, but now the second miss has changed her preferences."
I was taboo for my family to talk to me about Han's mother, but Mu Bo always appeared with Han Ma before, and now that Han Ma is gone, only Mu Bo knows everything about the past and knows my emotions. When he said this, I couldn't help but think of what my father and mother said before, that Mu Bo had a leg disease on the day Han Ma's body was recovered, and now looking at him limping, a strange emotion suddenly rose in his heart.
"Mubo, your legs...... What's going on? ”
At this time, Mu Bo and I had already turned the corridor and walked to the courtyard of the main hall, and my father and mother were talking with my uncle in the atrium.
After a while, Mu Bo pondered and said: "I am an old partner with Mother Han, she helps my wife manage the inner courtyard, and I help the master handle the chores of the outer courtyard, but who would have thought that when she is getting old, she will go so miserably, I ...... I'm sad. The moment I saw her body, I accidentally fell and fell with a leg disease. After all, we are all blessed people. ”
"Who is the blessed one?" A middle-aged man with some fortune greeted him from the front room.
"Uncle!"
I ran forward happily and said happily, "I haven't seen you for more than half a year, are you okay?" Did my cousin write to you, I just received a letter from her from Europe the day before yesterday, saying that she had settled down with Brother Shifang and entered Oxford. ”
"Okay, I'm fine, but we're rare, and good things are about to happen!" My uncle said, smiling mysteriously at me, "Come, let's talk in the hall." (To be continued.) )
