Chapter 016: Abnormal Movement

Chu Xue smiled and couldn't see her eyes, closed the window with her hands and feet, and said, "The slave maid has become a housekeeper's wife, isn't she still a young lady?" Why, isn't the young lady annoyed by the slave? ”

"You damn girl, go down to sleep, I can't mean you." Shu Jinhua lay on the bed and stretched her waist, she didn't feel anything when she was reading a book just now, but now she lay down, and her sleepiness came up.

Chu Xue rubbed her eyes when she saw Shu Jinhua, and knew that her young lady was also sleepy, so she blew out the candle, closed the door lightly, and went downstairs.

Shu Jinhua didn't have the habit of letting the girl go to the night, not because she wasn't used to having people nearby, but because she couldn't stand her sleeping on the bed, but the girl had to make a bunk on the ground. So Chuqiu and Chuxue sometimes accompany her, and they also sleep on the kang with the earth dragon burning outside.

Today's early snow was intended to be outside, but Shu Jinhua persuaded him to go back. In early autumn and early snow, they all live on the first floor, and the distance between the three of them is not far, and there is something outside, and it is more convenient to be on the first floor.

Shu Jinhua has been sleeping lightly since he was born, and he is used to it, and he has always woken up for three minutes and slept for seven minutes. He had slept for less than an hour when he heard faint cries and shouts.

Suddenly opened his eyes, Shu Jin sat up expressionlessly. The good-looking Ye Mei frowned, lifted the thin quilt, and as soon as he put on his shoes, the voice of Chu Xue sounded outside the door, "Miss, are you awake?" ”

"Well, come in." Shu replied.

Chu Xue entered the inner room, and saw that Shu Jinhua had already gotten up, so she hurriedly took a thick bichiel and put it on Shu Jinhua.

"The movement in the front yard, the early autumn has passed, and there should be nothing wrong, so Miss doesn't go down." Chu Xue's tone was obviously dissatisfied, and the young lady rested at this time, and the front yard didn't know which untroubled thing, so she blocked the young lady on the first day.

"It's okay, I'm awake anyway, just go over and take a look, the province has wasted the arrangement of people with intentions." Shu Jinhua is also very unhappy in her heart, who is so unambitious, or whose mind is too heavy, she also needs to figure out.

The two went downstairs, Shu Jinhua sat on a high-backed chair in the center of the hall, Chu Xue put a thick pillow behind him, Shu Jinhua seemed to lean lazily, but his half-squinted eyes were fixed on the direction of the main entrance.

After a while, Chuqiu led six or seven people from the front yard over. A few people were waiting outside the door, and early autumn walked in quickly.

"Miss, why did you come down?" Hatsuaki entered the door and asked. I thought that I would lock people in the firewood room first, and then deal with them after dawn, but I didn't expect to wake up the young lady first.

"Tell me what's going on?" Shu Jin straightened his sideburns and looked at a few people outside the door.

Chu Qiu frowned and said in a low voice, "Mrs. Qi from the porter said that there was a little girl who ran away in the middle of the night, and she happened to get up at night and bumped into it. ”

"Sneaking away?" Shu Jinhua raised his eyebrows, and a hint of shrewdness flashed in Danfeng's eyes. "Let them come in and talk back."

Chuqiu whispered yes, walked out quickly, and ordered several people to enter the hall.

Two stout mothers-in-law, one left and one right, pressed a little girl with scattered clothes and her hands cut back. There were three girls of the same age behind him, all with their heads down, and their bodies were unconsciously swinging.

The six of them entered the house, knelt down in a hurry, and asked Shu Jinhua to say goodbye.

Shu Jinhua looked at the little girl who was pressed in the middle, and her eyes were awe-inspiring, "Raise your head." ”

The little girl trembled, half crawled on the ground, and didn't raise her head for half a day.

"Didn't you hear what Miss said?" Chu Xue drank coldly.

"Yes...... Be. The little girl raised her head tremblingly with a crying voice.

Shu Jinhua glanced up and down, the little girl's face was full of tears, her cheeks were slightly red, she was obviously slapped, and her small eyes were swollen.

"Which one is Mama Qi?"

"The old slave is here." The mother-in-law, who was kneeling on the left, replied steadily, but calmly.

"Tell me what's going on." Shu Jinhua's tone is not good, and he is disturbed to rest in the middle of the night, and everyone is angry.

"Yes." Mrs. Qi blessed her body slightly, "The old slave is the gatekeeper who guards the Spring Pavilion, and today I don't know how to eat a bad stomach, and I ran many times at night. Just now the old slave came out of the thatched house, and saw this girl sneaking around at the gate of the courtyard and didn't know what she was doing. The old slave followed behind and looked, only to find that the key to the courtyard gate was somehow in the hands of this girl. The old slave saw that the courtyard door was opened, and the girl wanted to go out, so he stepped forward to catch the girl and ask questions, not wanting to disturb the young lady's rest. ”

After Mrs. Qi finished speaking, she didn't forget to apologize and said: "Not looking at the courtyard gate is a dereliction of duty on the part of the old slave, but it is up to the young lady to deal with it." ”

Shu Jinhua held the teacup in his hand, took a sip of hot water, and said half-loudly, "It's not too late to punish people if they run away, Mama Qi should get up first." ”

Qi Pozi said yes, got up and stood on the side with her head down.

Shu Jinhua asked the mother-in-law on the right again, and the mother-in-law was woken up, and when she went out to look, the girl kicked down the mother-in-law Qi, turned around and ran to the courtyard gate. Only then did she hurriedly dare to step forward and join forces with Mrs. Qi to restrain this girl.

The three little girls kneeling in the back said that they lived in the same room with the girl who ran away, and one of them got up in the middle of the night, saw that there was no one else, and did not return for a long time, so they woke up the other two, went out of the house to find someone, and met three people on the way.

Shu Jinhua asked everyone else to stand on one side, and did not ask the person who was still kneeling on the ground, just leisurely playing with the teacup.

Everyone was silent, and bowed their bodies stiffly, causing panic in the hearts of the only kneeling people.

"What else do you have to say?" Shu Jinhua's tone is flat, but it makes people feel more frightened.

The little girl's knees were painful, her hands were still tied behind her back, and her whole body was very sore.

"Slave maid...... Slaves...... I just want to kiss my mother, I want to meet my mother, and I ask the young lady to be kind and forgive the slave. The little girl cried bitterly when she said this.

See your mother? You don't have to think about this excuse, you know that it's just a pretext. I took a leave of absence during the day, when would I not be able to see it, and I would like to sneak out in the middle of the night?

Shu Jinhua looked up suspiciously and glanced at the early autumn.

"Xiaoju's mother is from the Ge Sheng family who manages the fire in the big kitchen, and her father is a groom in the stable." In early autumn, his mind turned quickly, and Shu Jin drew a look and understood.

Shu Jinhua also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, fortunately, the original Miss Shu Si was a person who didn't like to remember, and the maid in the yard didn't take it to heart, and her face was familiar, but she couldn't name it.

"Is your mother still working in the big kitchen?" Shu Jinhua turned his head and asked Xiaoju.

"In, in...... The slave's mother has been in the big kitchen. ”

"Oh, I guess the big kitchen is too busy, why don't you let your mother and your father go to raise horses together?" Shu Jinhua put down the teacup and tapped on the table. For a while, there was only a regular beating sound in the whole hall.

Xiao Ju didn't understand the meaning of Shu Jin's painting, obviously interrogating her why she ran away in the middle of the night, how could this be related to how to arrange her mother?
