Plum fragrance garden.

In the courtyard, Miss Qin Er, who was wearing a plain white dress, was accompanying a young woman, comforting her softly.

The young woman's cheeks were red and swollen, her eyes were bloodshot, the corners of her mouth were bruised, and her neck was covered with nail scratches.

This appearance can no longer be seen to be Yang Ping'er, the second lady of Chengguo Mansion.

Qiu'er moved a chair.

Miss Qin Er helped her sit down.

Yang Ping'er's face was full of anxiety and panic, and as soon as she sat down, she immediately stood up again, and said in a hoarse voice: "Second Miss, where is Qingzhou?" Hurry up and let him come over, I have something to say to him, I have to go back quickly, my small building is still waiting for me at home. ”

Qin Weimo looked at the door.

At this time, Luo Qingzhou's expression was solemn, and his steps hurriedly walked in.

Second Miss Qin hurriedly said softly: "Second Madam, brother-in-law is here, you can say something to him directly." ”

Then he turned around and walked into the house, and said to Qiu'er next to him: "Qiu'er, you and Zhu'er also come in, and you are not allowed to eavesdrop." ”

"Yes, miss."

Qiu'er agreed, and immediately shouted to Zhu'er, who had just entered the door.

Second Miss Qin was just about to leave, but Yang Ping'er hurriedly said, "Second Miss, don't go." This matter may require the help of you and the Qin family, Qingzhou is a scholar, and one person can't ...... at all."

Qin Weimo stopped, paused, and said to Qiu'er next to him: "Qiu'er, you and Zhu'er go in first." ”

"Yes, miss."

Qiu'er and Zhu'er, who had just returned, immediately entered the house and closed the door.

In the courtyard, only three people remained.

Luo Qingzhou walked up to Yang Ping'er, stared at the scars on her face and neck, frowned and said, "Second lady, what's the matter?" ”

Yang Ping'er showed a trace of bitterness on her face and shook her head: "It's okay." ”

Immediately, he glanced left and right with a worried expression, approached him, and said in a low voice: "Qingzhou, listen, when I went to bring morning tea to the eldest lady this morning, I heard her muttering to an old man in the house. I didn't know the old man, and I didn't know where he came from, but I heard him talk about graves, bones, feng shui, and the eldest lady scolding through gritted teeth...... scolded the little mongrel, saying that you will be doomed, and you will not be able to pass the exam next autumn...... Also said, let you ...... Let you have no children and grandchildren......"

After speaking, she suddenly grabbed his arm and whispered with horror on her face: "Qingzhou, she ...... You may have to dig up your mother's grave and use your mother's bones to perform some vicious sorcery......"

Luo Qingzhou's face was gloomy, and his eyelids fluttered.

Yang Ping'er hurriedly turned to Miss Qin Er behind and said, "Miss Qin Er, this matter may only trouble you." Qingzhou's mother died early, and there was no place to bury it at that time, so he could only be buried in the wilderness far outside the city, and now he is the son-in-law of your Qin Mansion, and he has been recognized by you. I think...... If you want, you can help his mother change to a good place. ”

After speaking, he said with an embarrassed expression on his face: "Of course, I know that Qingzhou, as a son-in-law, is not qualified to ......."

"Second lady."

Qin Weimo interrupted him softly: "Actually, since the last time my brother-in-law came back from the grave, Weimo mentioned this matter to my father, saying that the bones of my brother-in-law's mother would be reburied in our Qin family's ancestral cemetery. At that time, my father mentioned it to other uncles, and everyone thought it was unruly, but now, ...... You can rest assured, Weimo can guarantee that the bones of my brother-in-law and mother will be buried in our Qin family's ancestral cemetery. It is surrounded by three villages, and the ancestors are the ones who take care of the mausoleum there, and there will never be a theft of the mausoleum. ”

"Okay, okay, Second Miss Qin, Qingzhou can join your Qin family and get you...... I believe that his mother will be very relieved and happy in the spirit of heaven. ”

Yang Ping'er wiped her tears with a smile and said, "Okay, I should go, I can't stay here longer, if I am discovered......"

Luo Qingzhou suddenly asked, "Second Madam, what's going on with these scars on your face?" ”

Yang Ping'er smiled bitterly, waved her hand, and said, "Don't talk about it, Qingzhou, you and Fluttershy live here well, I'm leaving." ”

Qin Weimo suddenly pulled her and said, "Second Madam, tell us, what is going on with this scar on your face and when it happened, this is very important." ”

Luo Qingzhou looked at her.

Yang Ping'er hesitated when she heard this, and Fang said in a low voice: "After you left last night, I went to bring water to the eldest lady to wash her feet, and I washed it well, but she suddenly picked up the water and splashed it on my face, and then she ......."

Speaking of this, a look of horror and palpitations suddenly appeared in her eyes: "Then she seemed to be crazy, beating, scratching and scolding me, I knelt on the ground in fright, I didn't dare to hide, and I didn't dare to say anything......"

Speaking of this, her body trembled slightly, and she continued to tremble: "It took a long time for her to gradually calm down, and then let me continue to help her wash her feet......"

Qin Weimo looked at her with pity, and said softly, "Have you been helping her wash her feet all the time?" ”

Yang Ping'er said bitterly: "Yes, it has always been." I was originally a maid, and I became a concubine after being favored by the master, but in fact, I was not as good as the maid next to her...... If it weren't for Xiaolou, I would ......"

She shook her head, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said, "Don't say anything, Second Miss, Qingzhou, I should go, Xiaolou is still waiting for me at home." ”

After speaking, he wiped his tears and hurried away.

Under the sunset, the thin back was full of exhaustion and heaviness.

In the small courtyard, it was quiet.

The breeze blows, and the peach blossoms drift away.

The girl in a plain white dress approached Luo Qingzhou and said softly: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, your mother's bones will be fine." ”

Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Second Miss, is she suspicious of something?" ”

Qin Weimo was silent for a moment, and said softly: "Brother-in-law, Weimo doesn't know what the second lady is, and he doesn't dare to guess and comment casually. It's just that if the eldest lady of the Luo family wants to discuss this kind of thing with others, it will definitely be very secretive, and it is impossible for people to hear it casually. And the eldest lady should know that the second lady is actually very sympathetic to her brother-in-law in her heart, and Weimo can see from some details last night, not to mention the eldest lady. ”

She paused, and then said: "Also, although the eldest lady was angry last night, she shouldn't have been so cruel to her personally, after all, the second lady is the second lady of Chengguo Mansion and the concubine of that old man Luo. That eldest lady is a person who talks about rules and wants to save face, even if she wants to vent, she will not vent it on her face......"

Luo Qingzhou said: "So, the second lady thinks this is a bitter trick?" ”

Qin Weimo frowned and said softly: "Brother-in-law, Weimo thinks that the second lady should be innocent, and she doesn't know that she has been tricked." The eldest lady first beat her to make her resentful, and then deliberately said something to the old man who wanted to hurt you, which was heard by the second lady. The second lady sympathizes with you, and because she is angry about what happened last night, she came to you, and when you saw that she was beaten so badly, you naturally would not suspect her. What's more, the brother-in-law's heart should be more trusting of the second lady, right? ”

Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment and said, "Actually, the second lady has always been very good to me and my mother-in-law. ”

Qin Weimo looked at him and said, "Brother-in-law, Weimo thinks that this should be the conspiracy of the eldest lady." Your mother's grave is buried in a barren mountain outside the city, and as long as you hear the news, you will definitely rush out to protect it, and even go to move the grave overnight. At that time, the wilderness will be quiet in the dead of night, and it will be far away from the city, and even if my brother-in-law goes, he may not be able to bring many people. At that time, it may be the time for her to act. ”

"Last night, my brother-in-law killed her own nephew, ruined her conspiracy, slapped her in the face, and forcibly got back the birth certificate, she is estimated to have lost her mind in a hurry, so she wants to take revenge on her brother-in-law desperately."

"There are still a few people left in the Song family, it is estimated that she has already been contacted, and she may go to ambush outside the city tonight, just waiting for her brother-in-law to leave the city."

Luo Qingzhou said: "Second Miss, although I know it's a conspiracy......"

"But as a son of man, my brother-in-law has to go."

Miss Qin Er looked at him softly, and said softly, "Brother-in-law, of course you have to go." The brother-in-law's mother, when she was buried, was already sloppy, and the brother-in-law must have been sad. Now, the brother-in-law will definitely not let her be hurt in any way. Brother-in-law, bring all the people from the Qin Mansion with you. Weimo went to inform the second brother that there were still people there in the second brother, and then Weimo asked his father to call all the warriors in the second uncle and the fourth uncle's family to ......"

Luo Qingzhou shook his head: "If the people of the Song family are not outside the city, but lurking nearby, just waiting for us to take the warriors out of the city, then the people who stay in the mansion will be in danger." It is impossible for me to let all the people of the Qin family go out of the city with me for this matter, and according to the city rules and laws, it is impossible for all of us in the Qin Mansion to leave here at once. So Second Miss, don't worry about this matter, I'll solve it myself. ”

"Brother-in-law......"

Miss Qin Er frowned, looked at him worriedly, and said, "Weimo knows that her brother-in-law is very powerful, and she also knows that her brother-in-law will definitely not let those bad guys succeed." But...... That eldest lady may have gone mad, and madmen can't do things with common sense. Weimo is worried about her brother-in-law, she is really worried......"

Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment, and said softly: "Second Miss, don't worry, if they really want to kill me, they will definitely not dig the grave tonight." I'm going to check out the situation tonight and then I'll look at the situation. ”

Miss Qin Er said: "Brother-in-law, the investigation is also very dangerous, does the brother-in-law want to take Xia Chan alone?" ”

Luo Qingzhou shook his head.

The two stood in the courtyard and talked.

The golden sunset sprinkled on the two of them, gilding them with a layer of beautiful brilliance.

The sky is full of sunset.

The evening breeze blew through the courtyard, and the pink petals fluttered one after another, sprinkling on the two of them.

Song Ruyue walked to the door with the maid, saw this scene, stood quietly at the door for a while, and left silently.

The sunset is all over the sky, and the fragrance of flowers fills the garden.

In the small garden of plum fragrance, there are flowers blooming in every season.
