"Second, in the future, regarding the previous rumors, it is not allowed to chew the root of the tongue in the kitchen." As she spoke, the housekeeper's eyes fell on the people standing in the small kitchen, glanced around, and said sharply: "If you find that there is another chewing tongue, you will either sell it to the house in the future, or send it to the chores to work forever!" ”

The words are colorful, revealing majesty.

Suddenly, the subordinates in the courtyard closed their mouths one after another, turned their heads one by one, hung their heads, and did not dare to talk to the people on the side.

For a while, the small courtyard, which was originally a little noisy, suddenly fell silent.

Seeing this, the kitchen steward immediately opened his mouth and promised: "Mama rest assured, there will never be such a thing in the future!" ”

Hearing this, the housekeeper nodded, and her eyes scanned the people in the courtyard for a week.

Moment.

Without further glances, he led the mother-in-law behind him to turn around, raised his feet, and walked out of the small kitchen in a few steps, "Go to the sewing room-" Leaving behind a few words and a yard of people looking at each other.

The housekeeper walked on the front foot, and the fat kitchen housekeeper on the back foot turned around, raised her face, and stared at the courtyard with burning eyes.

opened his mouth and said, "Some time ago, who was the mother-in-law who took care of Miss Su-?" ”

Hearing this, all the subordinates looked at each other with side faces, and one by one they probed their brains, looking for the person that the mother-in-law said.

The kitchen steward glanced at everyone sharply.

For a long time, no one stood up.

Seeing this, the woman suddenly had a smile on her face: "Do you want me to find out, or stand up and judge for yourself." As he spoke, there was a hint of ruthlessness in his words, "If I am asked to find out, the punishment will not be so simple!" ”

Moment.

A woman stood forward tremblingly, hung her head, and said weakly: "Yes, yes...... Old slave ......"

When everyone heard this, their burning eyes turned to the woman.

The kitchen steward nodded. Stretched out his hand and beckoned to the pale mother-in-law, "Come here-"

As soon as the words fell, the people in the courtyard turned their faces sideways again, and they exchanged heads and talked with the people on one side.

"Shut up. "The kitchen steward frowned, and suddenly shouted a loud scolding, "Don't think there's enough?" Do you want to send you to the housekeeper to get the work? ”

Go to the housekeeper to get a job?

Isn't that just going to the chore room to be punished?

When everyone heard this, they didn't dare to talk to each other anymore and shut their mouths. returned to their original positions one after another, and Ansheng did his own work.

The kitchen steward nodded, and was satisfied with this for a point or two, and then turned his face to the woman and said, "Come with me-"

……

Wen Hui has been accustomed to the rumors in the past few days, but somehow, it seems that there are many fewer people talking about these things in the mansion in the past few days.

There are no more Zhenyun in my ears, Chaoyun, Qingxing came to pass the word, what to say, which mother-in-law chewed what tongue root today. Which girl is gossiping in secret.

"Chaoyun, what did you gain by staring at Chunhua?" Wen Hui asked.

Chaoyun said: "No." He shook his head.

Nodding, Wen Hui squinted and thought for a moment, and said, "Continue to stare at it." "Su Lianlian can't be careless.

"What do you mean?" Su Lianlian tugged at the corners of her mouth and said with a very far-fetched smile.

The old lady hung her head, put her hands in front of her in a regular manner, and said respectfully: "Miss, it is not good for you to come to the kitchen of your subordinates as a master. ”

Su Lianlian breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. eased his expression: "Mama's words are strict, and I also said it, if something happens, I won't blame Mama." ”

The old lady did not follow her words this time. only said: "Miss tortures the old slave, the reputation of the old slave who is not thoughtful about the reputation of the young lady these days will definitely not be like this again in the future, and please don't embarrass the old slave in the future." As he spoke, he bowed down and bowed to Su Lianlian.

A few fire-burning maids on one side of the kitchen were a little probed when they saw this.

Su Lianlian's heart jumped, and her thoughts turned around in her head. Suddenly, he felt bad, and said, "What do you mean by this?" "My heart suddenly went up and down.

The grandmother still hung her head, her face did not change, and said respectfully: "Miss's status is noble, please don't go to the small kitchen in the future." ”

Su Lianlian's face sank, the corners of her mouth drooped, and she squinted at the woman, with a trace of anger in her eyes.

"Mama......" Su Lianlian laughed again, "Don't say that, where do I have ......" Halfway through the words, a thought suddenly popped up in her mind, and she stopped talking.

After thinking about it, she had a hint of doubt, and raised her eyes to look at the grandmother: "Is it...... Someone in the house said what? ”

The grandmother lowered her head again when she heard this, and said nothing.

When Su Lianlian saw this, her heart sank.

The small kitchen was quiet for a while, and a few fire-making girls hung their heads and didn't dare to make a sound.

Su Lianlian stood there, looking very embarrassed.

Moment.

Then she turned around, Su Lianlian no longer looked at the grandmother, her face was expressionless, "Hancui-let's go-" led the girl and hurriedly left the small kitchen.

Wen Hui went to the academy in the morning, and when she didn't want to enter the inner room, she saw Su Lianlian sitting there expressionlessly, and when she saw herself coming in, she suddenly looked up and stared at herself.

Wen Hui chuckled in her heart: What's wrong with herself?

Looking at the nose and the nose and the heart, Wen Hui walked through Su Lianlian's position without squinting, and led Qingxing to his own seat slowly.

Bending down and sitting down, Wen Hui took the book in Qingxing's arms, opened it, and looked quietly with her head down. On the other hand, I wondered if she had been too bad lately.

After school, Wen Hui got up from her seat and asked Qingxing to get up and leave after taking the book.

Just after leaving the gate of the academy, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him blocking his way.

Raising her face, Wen Hui saw Su Lianlian's enlarged face.

Su Lianlian's eyes were a little inexplicable, staring at her in a daze.

Wen Hui was stunned in her heart, she was stared at strangely, and she felt a little hairy in her heart.

Su Lianlian stared at Wen Hui like this for a while, and for a moment, she suddenly pulled the corners of her mouth, and said inexplicably: "This matter will not be over so lightly." After that, he gave Wen Hui a roll of his eyes, and didn't give the other party time to react, turned around, and hurriedly led Hancui away.

Wen Hui sniffed, raised her eyebrows, and turned her face sideways. I was puzzled for a while, and then I glanced at Qingxing, "Let's go." ”

The two returned to Fangfangju, and Wen Hui entered the house with her front foot. The hind feet will be Chaoyun, Zhenyun, and Qingxing shouted in front of them together.

Facing the three girls in front of her, Wen Hui thought about it with her little face in her palm and frowned. Sideways face to the three people: "Is there anything strange about Cousin Su lately?" Then he muttered again, and he always felt that something was wrong.

Without waiting for the three of them to answer, Wen Hui suddenly raised her head and said, "Chaoyun, Chunhua don't have to stare at it......"

Chaoyun was a little puzzled.

"After two ****, take the initiative to find Chunhua to talk to ......," Wen Hui continued.

In addition to slander, Wen Hui is always unsteady in her heart.

……

The more Su Lianlian thought about it, the more angry she became, her fingers curled up tighter and tighter, and her fingertips dug into her skin, imprinting shallow marks.

Suddenly, the whole palm of the hand was released, and the arm was extended. Pick up the celadon cup on the front table.

"Smack-"

The cup fell to the ground and cracked.

The tea was splashed on the floor, and the ground was full of crumbled crumbles from cups.

Han Cui's fingers trembled, and he stood on one side with his head down, seeing that he was about to bow down and pick up something on the ground.

"Tell Chunhua to come in and clean up-"

Su Lianlian calmed her face and said suddenly.

Hancui nodded, and hurriedly went out to call Chunhua in.

It seems that Su Wenhui was born to restrain her, and her plan just had a hint of signs in the Fang Mansion, but it was blocked by Wenhui.

But she was not reconciled-

Su Lianlian bit her lower lip with her teeth, thinking hatefully.

Fang Mansion is so glorious and rich. She didn't want to let go like this—

Old Madam Fang's head didn't work, she had to think of other ways.

Thinking about it, Su Lianlian's eyes deepened.

On the second day, Wen Hui greeted Mrs. Fang at noon. was left by Mrs. Fang for dinner, Wen Hui had a good appetite, and even taking Mrs. Fang to eat was better than usual.

After the meal is eaten, the meal is removed by running water.

Wen Hui was idle, so she accompanied Old Madam Fang to talk.

As she was talking, Old Madam Fang suddenly turned her face sideways. said inexplicably: "Sister Hui gets along well with your cousin?" ”

When Wen Hui heard this, she was a little inexplicable in her heart for a while, thought about it, and then said, "...... it?" As he spoke, he raised his eyes and secretly glanced at Old Madam Fang's expression.

Hearing this, Old Madam Fang nodded, and then sighed meaningfully.

Seeing this, Wen Hui suddenly had some clues in her heart.

I'm afraid that Old Madam Fang also saw the purpose of Su Lianlian and Aunt Su.

It's been half a month since Aunt Su left the Fang Mansion, and Su Lianlian's illness has gradually improved, don't say leave, Aunt Su hasn't even come to write a letter, where does this mean to leave?

Less than half a day after leaving Mrs. Fang's Yongshou Hall, after Wen Hui returned to the house from school in the afternoon, she was told an astonishing news by Qing Xing -

"Aunt Bai slipped the fetus-?" Wen Hui was surprised, holding the tea cup in her hand and bringing it to her mouth, but she didn't take a sip.

Qingxing nodded, and said: "The slave maid listened to what the housekeeper said, saying that Aunt Bai felt uncomfortable this morning, and originally thought that there was a problem with eating, so she called Lang Zhong to take a look. ”

Wen Hui took a sip of the tea cup close to her lips and squinted.

This doesn't seem quite right.

Thinking about it, Wen Hui raised her face, took a breath, and raised her eyebrows.

However, the left and right have nothing to do with her, but I'm afraid that Mrs. Fang is busy.

……

Aunt Bai's miscarriage also alarmed Mrs. Fang, the big house has not had a child for many years, originally Aunt Bai's pregnancy was a great joy, but she never thought that she would become like this in the end.

, Wen Hui didn't know the twists and turns, but she only knew that Old Madam Fang was very angry later, and she reprimanded on the spot: "How did you recruit this scourge into the Fang Mansion?" ”

Old Madam Fang was always focused on the future prosperity of the Fang Mansion and the future of her descendants, and she was even more afraid of this kind of cursed object, for fear that if she was not careful, the Fang Mansion would be destroyed on these things.

Then he also issued an order to severely punish Aunt Feng, so no matter where Aunt Feng begged at that time, she still couldn't escape death.

Mrs. Fang and Aunt Feng had an unpleasant quarrel, but it was just a contest between the main room and the concubine, but it was Uncle Fang's meaning, listening to the rumors in the courtyard, I still helped the eldest lady.

It's also true, the main room and the concubine, which is more important, is still clear in the uncle's heart.

Wen Hui was called by Mrs. Fang to Yongshoutang to explain the matter this day.

"Sister Hui." Old Madam Fang called, then thought for a while, and said, "Now that you are not young, I feel that I can let you participate as well." ”

Hearing this, Wen Hui looked at Old Madam Fang curiously and said, "Grandmother, what's the matter?" ”

Old Madam Fang leaned the tea cup on her lips, took a sip, and said slowly: "In a few days, the young lady of the Shangshu Mansion will hold a flower party, and the families of the five official positions have been invited, take a time, you can also participate." ”

Out of the house?

Wen Hui thought about it, felt a little excited inexplicably, nodded, and said, "I know." ”

Old Madam Fang nodded, and after a moment, she said, "There is something I want to ask you, I don't know what you mean." ”

"What's the matter?" Wen Hui asked.

Old Madam Fang glanced at Jinxiu with a side face.

I saw Jinxiu slowly step forward, walked in front of Wen Hui, and slowly showed the things in his hand.

Wen Hui lowered her head to take a closer look, but she didn't know what it meant, so she wondered: "Grandmother, what is this?" ”

Just look at a milky white handkerchief embroidered with a few lines of beautiful small words: "He is not born to be a lover, and there is no place in the world to be lovesick."

"Do you know what this is?"

Wen Hui was a little puzzled when she heard this, and after thinking about it, she still didn't know what Old Madam Fang meant, so she shook her head.

Seeing this, Old Madam Fang nodded, and didn't ask any more questions, "I know, you asked the girl to arrange the arrangements, and prepare to attend the banquet in a few days." ”

Wen Hui walked out of Yongshou Hall and went back to her own small courtyard, thinking about the handkerchief that Old Madam Fang had just asked her to look at, but the more she thought about it, the more wrong it became.

How could Old Madam Fang let her see things inexplicably?

What does that veil mean?

"Miss......" Chaoyun's soft call called back Wen Hui's attention.

Wen Hui interrupted her train of thought, raised her head with some confusion, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Chaoyun thought for a while and said, "Miss, there seems to be something wrong with the slave and maid looking at Chunhua these days. ”

Something is wrong?

Chaoyun said: "It was normal a few days ago, but for some reason these days, Chunhua will go to Mrs. Fang's courtyard sometimes." ”

"Mrs. Fang?" Wen Hui was a little surprised when she heard this.

Chaoyun nodded.

Wen Hui had a faint bad premonition in her heart, it's okay, why did Su Lianlian go over there?

"You continue to take a closer look, and tell me if there is anything."

……

Within a few days, the invitation letter from Shangshu Mansion was delivered to Fang Mansion, and this time, almost all the young ladies in Fang Mansion had to attend.

Big room, Fang Qian, Fang Xin, Fang Min, second room, Fang Yan, third room Fang Shu, etc...... There is also Wen Hui. (To be continued.) )
