Chapter Ninety-Nine: Suspicion
No one likes to be disliked, and she feels a little uncomfortable in her heart.
Mother Cao's eyes rolled, and she leaned down and asked in a low voice, "Girl, Miss Seven is inappropriate to do this?" ”
Chu Pei paused, speechless for a while.
Is Xiusun's approach inappropriate? There seems to be something wrong, but there seems to be nothing wrong with it.
At this time, the epidemic is really difficult to say, no one can guarantee that the people who come out of the county town are not sick, and the epidemic also has an incubation period.
She shook her head, "It doesn't seem wrong, but ......"
But she just didn't feel comfortable in her heart.
Mother Cao was relieved to see that her young lady had a judgment in her heart, and continued, "Miss Seven is taking precautions like this, not to prevent the fourth girl and the fourth miss, but mainly to worry about the plague, you think, her mother has not been pregnant for so many years, and she finally has it, and it is about to give birth, and it is the time to be weak." There is also Chen Zhixian's daughter living in the Huanshi Mountain House, so who is Chen Zhixian, Chen Ge's eldest son, what a big stake is this. We brought so many people, although we checked before leaving, but we can't guarantee it 100%, if something happens, who is it? ”
Chu Pei nodded, she also understands these truths, just like the old saying, brothers settle accounts, but just put everything on the table like this, and open it all up in broad daylight, it will inevitably make people feel that it hurts face.
Mother Cao knew that her girl had come back to her senses, so she pouted and deliberately said in a slightly larger tone, "If you want to follow what the old slave said, the girl shouldn't have come this time, if it wasn't for the instigation of the fourth lady that day, why should we face this embarrassment?" ”
Chu Pei remembered the scene when Xiuguan persuaded herself to come to the house with her three times and twice, and suddenly had some doubts, but she still sighed and said, "Xiuguan is not easy, don't talk about her." ”
Cao's mother didn't follow. Snorted, "Her difficulty is not something she brought on herself, you think, let's avoid the disease." Of course, it's better to go back to their own homes, and it's not that there is nowhere to go, and it's not that the place is far away, and the Buddha Hand Lake and Pearl Spring are only a few steps away. If you go home separately, the family will be able to discuss. The bath baths, the smoked herbs smoked herbs. Here, you are an elder and a guest, how do you want people to tell you, I think Miss Seven also has a heart, you see that these bath beans she prepared are all good. I just stretched out my head and looked, and the bath beans prepared for the maid were also like this. It's not good for her to say it openly, so she can only entertain her. I hope we will take the initiative to cooperate. ”
Chu Pei listened, from the blue and white porcelain jar grabbed a few fingernails of the big bath beans in front of the eyes to see, sure enough, this bath beans are different from the usual, dyed with flower and leaf juice into colorful, each one is the shape of a flower, carefully distinguished, there are begonia flowers, peach blossoms, lilacs and other different shapes. It was knocked out of the mold one by one.
Smell it on the tip of your nose, and there is a sweet floral fragrance, which is also fragrant on the skin on your body, such a careful bath bean. How many processes do you have to make, I don't know how much silver it will cost.
Thinking about it again, she actually prepared so many such bath beans for the mother-in-law and maid she brought, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, "This time it's really troublesome for Xiusun." ”
Cao's mother said, "We're all here, so naturally we have to be a good guest." As long as the girl is vigilant, don't let Miss Fourth take it as a gunman, you see it, Miss Four has to go to meet the sixth old lady and the eighth lady first, she is fighting with Miss Seven in the ring. ”
Chu Pei pondered for a moment, and also understood, since they all came to be guests, if they left immediately, and tossed people not to say it, it was easy to be misunderstood as poor hospitality, so it was better to settle down and wait for the plague in the county town to pass.
"Tell me to go down, everyone go to the bath quickly, the nails and hair must be washed, and then smoke the wormwood we brought, the eighth sister-in-law is pregnant, and the smell of wormwood can still be smelled, let the lychee come over to serve me in a while, and you can go down and wash it, mother, too."
Mother Cao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard her say this, the fourth lady was not worried at all, and she would make up some moths every once in a while.
Under the outer wall of the courtyard of the Rhino Hall, Xiusun and Shen's mother were standing side by side, Liu's mother gave a blessing, and Xiusun asked straight to the point, "What kind of entrainment does the fourth lady have?" ”
Mother Liu shook her head, "When I was packing, the old slave kept looking at it, but it was really not, it was just ......"
"Say." Xiusun said that she didn't have time to play with questions and answers.
Na Liu's mother raised her eyes and looked at Xiusun, then quickly lowered her head, and said at a significantly faster speed, "I also stared at her personal big maid Frangipani, and there was nothing abnormal, but some of the people brought this time were old people from the old mansion in Jiangpu, and the old slave was not easy to interfere with." ”
Xiusun rolled her eyes and nodded, "I know, you just have to look at the two of them, and the rest will be the rest." She raised her hand and motioned for Mother Liu to go back.
Xiusun and Shen's mother went up the cobblestone road and walked back slowly, silent for a long time.
Shen's mother was still a little worried, "I hope the Buddha will bless the fourth lady to stop and stop being a moth." ”
She was originally from the capital, and she had been married to Pukou with the old lady for many years, and her accent sounded a little abrupt.
Xiusun smiled and said, "Mother Shen doesn't have to worry, the bath beans we prepared are all good, and they can't be taken away if they can't be used up, and those maids can't wipe them on their bodies like this, so let the little maids take away their clothes and wash them, and they can still be pulled for a long time." ”
It's not that Xiusun is cautious, it's hard to guard against thieves day and night, it's not the first time Xiuguan has made small moves, and this time she wants to pull Chu Pei to greet the old lady and his wife, which always makes her feel very uneasy.
She asked Shen's mother in a low voice, "Mom thinks, could it be that the fourth sister herself is unaware, and the people with plans are hidden in the group of maids and women in the old mansion in Jiangpu?" ”
Shen's mother opened her mouth, and she wanted to say no, but she knew in her heart that this "won't" was just a modal word, in fact, she felt that it was completely possible.
Xiusun knew that Shen's mother was also suspicious, and muttered, "There is a plague going on outside, we can completely close the door and not interact with the outside world, it is better to take advantage of the past few days to screen the people living in the rhino hall." Also, the maid named Frangipani, I always feel that she is a little suspicious, why did the fourth sister instigate the fourth aunt to come to our house to live at this moment, who made the fourth sister do this? ”
"Okay, the old slave will arrange it, anyway, all the people in the rhino hall have been changed, from the big girl to the little girl, they are all our people."
Xiusun nodded. (To be continued.) )
