Sure enough, within a moment, a dark shadow appeared on the ground, and the silhouette looked like one knee on the ground.

"Miss, the slave is late."

"No problem." Sister Hui waved her hand to get up.

After Hongyu got up, Sister Hui lowered her voice and said slowly, "I don't know if Xia Sanshao told you the whole plan?" ”

"No, the young master only said that after letting the slave maid enter the house, everything will be arranged by the young lady." Hongyu shook her head slightly, then lowered her head respectfully

"It's inconvenient to talk tonight, because the matter is urgent, so I'll make a long story short." Sister Hui frowned and groaned slightly, but it was the way

"Some time ago, I designed to put a piece of paper into a book, I guess according to the old lady and the third uncle's temperament, at this moment that piece of paper or the whole book should be on the third uncle's side, you go to his study to investigate, see what is happening to that piece of paper now?" Sister Hui said.

"Yes."

"The third uncle's study is not as good as the side, you have to be careful, if you are discovered, you will say that I sent you to invite the third uncle, I want to see him."

"Yes, miss."

"Miss, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, Hongyu is just a sprinkler girl now, if you want to see Hou Ye, but let a sprinkler girl go, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion." Qiu Ju couldn't help but say loudly.

"It's okay, the third uncle won't notice these details, and Hongyu will be my big girl from tomorrow." Sister Hui is the way

Qiu Ju and Mo Qin were both shocked when they heard this, but the darkness just covered up the shock and speculation on their faces.

"Things are not in a hurry, you don't have to go tonight, it seems that foreign affairs are not going well recently, the third uncle often rests in the study, and I will go again when I am sure of you." Sister Hui said again

"Thank you for your care, but you don't have to. The slave maid has her own means to investigate in the Hou Ye's study, even if she meets the Hou Ye in the study, it doesn't matter much, you can go tonight. Hongyu's lips were slightly hooked, and she said in the affirmative

Sister Hui nodded after a little groaning, as one of Xia Nanjing's four secret envoys, she thought of some special skills.

"Then I'll wait for your good news tomorrow. There are no rules in my yard, and the sweeping maids can come in and chat with me on weekdays, and you just have to come if you have something. ”

Sister Hui was afraid that the old lady would think she was too capable, so she let the maids below make a fuss, and there was really no way to clean up Mother Zhou's mother would clean up, but she developed that the maids in this yard had no hierarchical concept, in addition to the big maids serving closely, those third-class maids could also talk.

"Yes, miss." The red jade words are still in my ears, but there is no black shadow on the ground.

Qiu Ju also had to praise: "Such skills, the slave is impressed." ”

"What level do you think she is in kung fu?" Sister Hui asked curiously

"The slave maid has always felt that her kung fu is not weak, but it is difficult to beat her compared to her. Thinking about it, the entire Great Xia Dynasty is afraid that it can also be ranked in the top ten masters. Qiu Ju sighed.

Sister Hui nodded, very satisfied. It seems that it is indeed much easier to do things in the future!

But when she lay on the bed after her clothes, she remembered something and forgot to say something, and the next day she woke up early and waited.

After Sister Hui had just finished greeting the old lady and enjoyed a big drama of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fighting, she returned to the leisurely residence and saw Hongyu waiting under the eaves with a broom.

"You look like a sweeping girl, but your eyes are still too sharp." Sister Hui watched a scene very comfortably, and when she saw Hongyu's appearance, she quipped.

"Yes, the slave will pay attention in the future." Hongyu immediately bowed her head in response.

Sister Hui smiled and said loudly, "You're new here, right?" Qiu Ju, it's raining and cold outside, take her in and have some hot tea. ”

Hongyu and Qiu Ju bowed together and thanked each other, and followed Sister Hui into the house.

As soon as they entered the house, the three of them went into the inner room.

"How's it going?" Sister Hui took off her cloak, handed it to Qiu Ju on the side, and asked herself

"The slave and maid have looked for it, and the book you said is missing, but this white paper was found in the mezzanine of the drawer behind the table, and the slave and maid saw that it was cautious, so she took it back to show you if it was." Hongyu took out a square piece of white paper from her bosom and handed it to Sister Hui.

Sister Hui took it, unfolded it, put it under her nose and sniffed it carefully, looked at the light again, and nodded affirmatively: "Yes." Sure enough, they didn't find the secret. ”

"Ruby girl, I have to trouble you to return this paper untouched." Sister Hui handed the white paper back to the red jade and said.

"Yes, the slave will retire." Hongyu bowed, and was about to leave with a blank piece of paper. Seeing this, Sister Hui hurriedly said, "That's right, wait." Can the girl get in touch with Xia Sanshao? ”

"Yes, what does the young lady need the slave to convey?" Ruby asked, turning to each other

"I have a private matter that I want to ask Xia Sanshao about, and I hope the girl will give me a message." As soon as Sister Hui spoke, she hesitated, such a thing is not in line with etiquette.

"Miss, please speak." Hongyu also saw her hesitation, so she stood upright in front of her, looked at Sister Hui and said respectfully

"I want to know that the old princess entered the palace the day before yesterday to ask for a marriage, and she was going to promise me to the prince in the house?" Although Sister Hui was still a little hesitant, she still said it ruthlessly, ready to gamble, even if she was looked down upon, it was better than being smeared with black eyes and being led by the nose by the old lady.

When Hongyu heard this, her face was very surprised: "This"

"I heard the old lady in our house say that it was promised to a concubine, and I want to know which younger brother Xia Sanshao is." As far as she knew, one of Xia Nanjing's first two elder brothers died, and the other got married, so it must be the younger brothers below.

"Yes, slave and maid will do it." Ruby nodded in response, still suspicious on her face.

"Miss, are you telling the truth? Old lady, "Qiu Ju heard it for the first time, and after Hongyu left, she couldn't help but ask.

"It's okay, let's wait for Hongyu to find out, the most important thing now is the old lady's business."

"Yes, by the way, miss, look at the matter between the fourth lady and the old lady today."

Although Qiu Ju was guarding outside, because Xiao Li and the old lady didn't care about their face this time, they let them, the maids who were guarding outside, also listen to a lot.

Sister Hui hooked her lips and laughed mockingly: "Dog eats dog." ”

The girl Piaoxian'er, who had been infertile for many years, actually diagnosed the doctor as pregnant, and Xiao Li naturally felt that there was a crisis, so he had to do some tricks to get rid of the child. Unexpectedly, the old lady noticed it, not only protected Piao Xian'er, but also reprimanded Xiao Li in front of the court this morning while the whole family was there. Xiao Li was also angry, stood up and first scolded Chu Jinli for ignoring his wife and children, spoiling his wife and destroying his concubines, and then scolded the old lady for not teaching her children strictly, regardless of the dignity and inferiority. This matter directly slapped the old lady in the face, and also made Chu Jinzhang faceless, and in the end, it was naturally Qiao's who came forward to "invite" Xiao Li's to set up another yard to cultivate and deal with the aftermath, and the matter was over.

However, Sister Hui felt that although Xiao Li had lost his life since that incident, his pungent temperament was still powerful. It's just that the old lady was afraid that she didn't expect the "true temperament" of her niece who she always liked, but in the end she splashed on herself. When I left, I was so angry that my face was blue and my eyes were black, and I was afraid that I was lying in Shoukang Hall at this time or was persuaded by Zhao's mother to drink soothing tea.

"Aunt Piaoxian'er is not good, but she is pregnant with the fourth uncle's child. The fourth aunt can't give birth, the old lady naturally has to work hard to let the next life, but the fourth aunt has to protect the seventh brother and the eighth brother, so naturally they don't deal with it, but it's good for us to make trouble. Sister Hui smiled slightly.

"You also kept watch all night last night, hurry up and rest, the ink painting is outside, and she will serve." Sister Hui waved her hand and said

"Yes, miss."

"By the way, Miss, this morning the slave went back to the next room, I didn't see the ink book, and I didn't see her moving around at this hour, she was the most diligent in the past, do you want the slave to look for it?" Qiu Ju took two steps, suddenly reversed back, and asked

"Oh, I've sent the ink book back to her old master." Sister Hui walked to the bookshelf and replied while looking for books

(For the mention of the three clans of the Jiao clan in Chapter 39, the three clans refer to the father, son, and grandson according to the "Zhou Li".) In fact, it refers to Jiao Taishi's family, and does not involve Jiao's other rooms. As for why he killed like this, he will explain in detail later. ）
