With a flick of a finger, yesterday was still silent in the summer heat, and the autumn tiger in early August had come, and the sun was so strong that people didn't want to step out of the door, and even the wind that blew was irritating and dull.

Xiao Zhisu practiced walking for half a day with a book on her head, taught Mama Xi to hold a small bamboo whip, and accurately landed on the book above her head when her steps were a little faster, sighing and shaking her head, "Nine girls, you are the smartest person you have ever taught, and you have learned everything well, but you can't pass the level of walking, why is this?" ”

Xiao Zhisu rolled her eyes, and her heart was extremely depressed. In the previous life, she was not restrained, and she had never learned the lotus step at all, plus she was used to it in Linjiangye in this life, and she was good at riding and hunting, and now it is really difficult to learn this lotus step.

"Please also ask Mama to teach more." Xiao Zhisu drooped her face and said helplessly.

Mama Qin gestured with a look, and the little maid beside her poured out all the water in the copper basin in her hand without saying a word. Xiao Zhisu was shocked, her heels twisted, her skirt unscrewed like a flower, and water beads fell sprinklingly, covering the ground.

Xiao Zhisu's back was cold, and a cold air came straight to the back of her neck.

Sure enough, Mama Qin said, "The Nine Girls' lotus step posture is indeed graceful, but the pace is too heavy and slightly cumbersome, which is a taboo for the ladies." ”

When the words fell, I saw Mama Qin slightly bowed, the maid behind her folded her hands in front of her abdomen, and Jin Lian's small feet stepped under the skirt, and the skirt flowed. But seeing her walking in the place where she had just splashed water, after two laps, the soft-soled embroidered shoes stepped into the clean ground, and there were only shallow wet footprints, which were not very obvious.

"Would you like to try it, girl?" Mama Qin asked.

Xiao Zhisu was a little unable to come back to her senses at this time, pressing the book above her head, and looked at Mama Qin in confusion.

Noticing her eyes, Mama Qin bowed down, and her tone could not be refused, "Please also ask the girl to try." ”

As soon as she stepped into the water-stained area, Xiao Zhisu wailed in her heart, because she had scruples, it was not right to walk on tiptoe, not to be fast, and even more wrong. This time, all the books on his head fell down, not to mention, even the original graceful walking posture became funny and ridiculous.

After practicing all day, Tian Su Pavilion had no other effect except that the ground had not dried up and was constantly splashed with water.

In the evening, Xiao Zhisu lay on the soft couch, Qingli pinched her waist for her, and complained while enjoying it, "Qingli, you don't know, this Mama Qin is really not a good talker, she won't allow me to rest for a while!" ”

When Qingli heard this, she smiled a little, and then said, "I heard Zi Yu say that Mama Qin is not from the house, she was specially invited from the palace by the eldest lady. At the beginning, the girl of the Xie family and Lu were also invited. ”

Thinking of a person like Xie Qiyun, facing Mama Qin's stern face, Xiao Zhisu suddenly felt as if she was a little lucky, and sure enough, people rely on comparison.

Before going to bed, Qingli retreated and replaced Rao Xiang, who was on vigil. She took the pu fan, lifted the lid of the small bronze stove on the round stool on the top of the bed, the pu fan swayed slightly, the fire fold smoked in, and after a while, there was a curling light smoke rising, covering the lid, and the light smoke came out of the hollow of the lid.

"Girl, there are a lot of mosquitoes in the autumn tiger, this incense is the best in the house, the taste is elegant, and it also helps to sleep peacefully."

Xiao Zhisu snorted, turned over and didn't want to pay attention. At the same time, there was a bright light outside, and there was a muffled thunderstorm, thinking that it was going to rain.

Rao Xiang knew that she was bored, glanced at Xiao Zhisu, who turned inward, with a sneer hooked at the corner of her mouth, snorted in her heart and turned around and went to the outer room.

This kind of incense is really good, Xiao Zhisu fell asleep after a while, and when she woke up again, she was woken up by Zi Yu vigorously, "Girl, wake up, wake up!" ”

Tiredly propped up and sat up, Xiao Zhisu rubbed the corners of her forehead that was a little dull and painful, and glanced at the still bright outside with sleepy eyes, "What's wrong?" It's not dawn yet? ”

Seeing her like this, Zi Wei knew that something was wrong, "The old lady was frightened last night and is now unconscious. ”

Xiao Zhisu was startled and immediately lifted the mattress, but as soon as she got out of bed, she was groggy, raised her hand to hold Zi Yu, frowned and asked, "Fright?" What's going on? ”

Raising his eyes and looking at her with some concern, Zi Wei stammered, "Say it's the county lord...... In the middle of the night, he shouted grievances and tried to ...... Take away the old lady. ”

As soon as the words fell, before Xiao Zhisu could react, there was a noise outside Tian Su Pavilion. She glanced at Zi Wei knowingly, tore off the clothes hanging from the screen, and quickly put them on.

Zi Wei used a white hosta to tie a simple bun on the top of her hair, and the two of them simply cleaned up and went out together.

When I opened the door, I saw a group of people coming with lanterns. Soon, those people approached, and the first to meet was Xue Shiyan, who was surrounded by a group of slaves, followed by Xiao Chu, she put one hand on the back of her attendant Mama Wu's hand, and turned the red agate beads in the other hand.

When Xue Shiyan saw Xiao Zhisu, she glanced at Qingli who was kneeling beside her, "Didn't you say that the girl was still sleeping?" How can I see that the girl is in good spirits. ”

"My aunt came to Tiansu Pavilion in the middle of the night, was there any misunderstanding during the period?" Xiao Zhisu unhurriedly straightened the corner of her clothes and said lightly.

Xue Shiyan can't see her like this the most, she is obviously a down-and-out daughter, and she is very tall, like the woman who has trampled under her feet all her life! Ignoring Xiao Zhisu's question, he turned his head to Xiao Chu and said, "You don't need me to teach you what to do, right?" Now that the small buildings of Fudong Yuan and Lianxi have been searched, this Tiansu Pavilion, does Steward Xiao think that he should let it go? ”

Xiao Chu pursed his lips, respectfully waved at Xiao Zhisu, and then said loudly, "Last night, someone played tricks and bluffed the old lady. The eldest lady ordered a thorough investigation, assisted by Aunt Xue, and now the courtyards of all parties have been clarified, only Tian Suge remains, please let the nine girls go. ”

After looking at this battle, Xiao Zhisu felt that this matter was not so simple. Now it seems that it is deliberately aimed at herself, but in her previous life, she did not have this stubble in her impression, and it seems that many things are quietly changing.

However, if he is released now, Xiao Chu will definitely find the so-called 'evidence', and if he doesn't let go, he will feel even more like a thief. Thinking about it left and right, she could only compromise, turned sideways and made a way, Xiao Zhisu said, "Please." ”

Xiao Chu motioned for a few maids to go in, after all, women and boudoirs can't break in, bad reputation, he is guarding outside the door, and there are house slaves everywhere to prevent those who take advantage of the chaos to destroy evidence, and Xiao Zhisu also signaled Zi Yu to follow, afraid that someone will not be clean with their hands and feet.
