Because of the rain that had fallen during the night, the air was very good now, but it was more stuffy, and the feeling of depression in the air was even worse.

Xue Shiyan sat on the Taishi chair brought by the maid, with a maid playing a lantern beside her, and a fan serving tea on the other side, which was really pompous.

On the other hand, Xiao Zhisu stood by the door in a plain dress, followed only by Zi Zhuohua behind her, Qingli did not get Xue Shiyan's approval, she still knelt and couldn't stand up, and Rao Xiang was nowhere to be found.

After a while, several maids leaned over and shook their heads to indicate that they had not found anything.

Although Xiao Zhisu felt strange, she still said to Xue Shiyan with a faint smile, "Aunt Xue is still satisfied with this result?" Can my maid stand up? ”

As early as the day of the family law, the conversation between the two had already meant tearing their faces, and now they are secretly talking with guns and sticks, which is more comfortable than fake flattery.

Xue Shiyan smoothed the wrinkles at the corners of her clothes, raised her hand and was helped up by Mama Wu, and smiled at Xiao Zhisu, "If this matter has nothing to do with Su Su, it is naturally best, and there is no way to be strict with Zha Tian Su Ge, after all, there was trouble last night...... It's the county lord. ”

"Oh?" Xiao Zhisu raised her eyebrows and smiled, "I think if it's really my mother, she is obviously looking for the wrong person." It's probably because Qingxin Pavilion is too close to Lianxi Xiaozhu, and my mother hasn't come back for too long and has gone the wrong way. ”

The implication was so obvious that even Xiao Chu, who was standing on the sidelines watching the battle, couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat, feeling that these nine girls were really not fuel-efficient lamps. But it was too reckless, and it didn't do her any good to tear her face so early.

Xue Shiyan covered her lips and smiled, her cardamom bright red nails looked particularly enchanting against the light of the lantern candlelight, and she said disapprenosingly, "Yes, the county is coming, and you should first see the third master, and then come here to see your own daughter." ”

Xiao Zhisu smiled, undeniable.

Today, the dawn is exceptionally early, Xiao Zhisu woke up and was still bright, and the day after the two of them played Tai Chi for a while, it had become completely bright. The slaves blew out the lanterns in their hands and waited quietly on one side.

At this time, suddenly a little guy ran in, saluted Xue Shiyan, climbed into Xiao Chu's ear, and said something.

After Xiao Chu heard this, his face changed greatly, and he bowed his hand to Xue Shiyan and Xiao Zhisu, "I also ask Aunt Xue and the ninth girl to go to Qingxin Pavilion with the old slave." ”

On the way to Qingxin Pavilion, Xiao Zhisu didn't talk to Xue Shiyan anymore. On the road, the team grew stronger and stronger, and when passing by a remote courtyard, a plainly dressed woman came out of it with a maid, and when she saw Xue Shiyan, her face was a little vile, and she followed behind the crowd after bowing, thinking that it was Aunt Xu who had not shown up for a long time.

By the time she arrived at Qingxin Pavilion, the old lady had already woken up, dressed neatly but her face was pale. The moment he saw Xiao Zhisu, especially when he looked at the eyes that looked like the county lord of Yunyang, a spirit on his body tightened Qingluan's crutches and avoided her.

Xiao Zhisu was also stunned, but she didn't expect to see a trace of disgust in her grandmother's eyes...... She bowed down with the crowd, and then sat down in the rose chair beside her, a little uneasy.

When everyone was seated, Mama Zhang, who was next to the old lady, stood up and said, "Bring it up." ”

Everyone then looked at the door, and after a while, several small servants walked in with Rao Xiang, and when Rao Xiang saw Xiao Zhisu sitting in the hall, she knelt down and rubbed it over, "Girl, girl, save me!" ”

Pulling the skirt out of Rao Xiang's hand, Xiao Zhisu looked faint, "Save you?" Rao Xiang, you can't talk nonsense, especially if it's about life, you have to say it clearly, don't let people misunderstand anything. ”

Mama Zhang looked at their master and servant like this, although she guessed that it was a frame-up, she still said, "Nine girls, the maid of Qingxin Pavilion found that this Rao Xiang was sneaky outside the courtyard, and when she went to investigate, she almost wanted to escape, and then found that there were a few footprints outside the courtyard, which was really suspicious, so she summoned the masters of each courtyard to inquire about the reason." ”

"What did Mama find? Are those footprints the same as the trouble in Qingxin Pavilion last night? Xiao Zhiyan said suddenly, and then looked at Mrs. Xiao worriedly, and said with concern, "Grandmother is better?" Seeing that her face was not good, Yan'er left it for her grandmother to pinch and pinch for a while. Recently, Yan'er also learned to stew some nourishing decoction, and stew some for her grandmother to taste later. ”

Old Mrs. Xiao's heart warmed, and she pulled her lips and smiled as kindly as possible, "Okay, it's over in a while, you can stay here and stay with your grandmother for a while." ”

Xiao Zhiyan smiled sweetly and nodded in response. Xie Yingqiao looked at it coldly, and then turned her gaze to Xiao Zhisu, but when she saw that she looked like she had nothing to do with herself, she was really annoyed.

Mama Zhang said again, "Thanks to the torrential rain on the autumn night, it came and went quickly, which left such a footprint, giving us a chance to find out such a bad man!" Then he looked at Rao Xiang and said sharply, "Say!" What are you doing out there just now? ”

Rao Xiang trembled with fright, glanced at Xiao Zhisu, and saw that her expression was indifferent, so she could only grit her teeth and whisper, "Yesterday...... Last night was my vigil...... Because I drank a bowl of sleeping soup before going to bed, I ended up sleeping too dead at night. When I got up, I saw that the girl was sleeping well, and I didn't notice anything wrong, until three o'clock in the morning, I heard that something had happened to Qingxin Pavilion, and I went over to see it because I was curious, and the result was ...... Found that footprint...... Seeing that the size of the lotus foot with the girl is just right, and the sole style is ...... The pair of embroidered shoes embroidered with blue brocade pearls brought by the same girl from Jiangnan...... Same ......"

After saying these few words, it is obviously a sure thing that Xiao Zhisu is the one who pretends to be a ghost. For a while, everyone's eyes in the hall fell on her, and Xue Shiyan on the opposite side picked up the celadon white glazed tea cup, dialed the curly tea leaves in the cup with the tea lid, and said with a smile, "A shoe print alone is nothing." ”

"Yes...... I heard that the workmanship of the embroidered shoes is extraordinary, Chen Anhou specially hired someone to customize, the workmanship is very exquisite, and even the soles are auspicious Fulian patterns...... World...... This is the only pair. Aunt Xu, who had never spoken, said suddenly, and even her voice became more and more timid the more she went to the back, until she finally lowered her head.

This pair of shoes was indeed given by my grandfather, and when she was about to leave Linjiang County, because she was clamoring for an unusual gift, my grandfather sent someone to Fu Liuxuan, and asked Fu Liuxuan, who sold the finished goods, to make the pair of Su embroidered brocade pearl shoes.

"That's it! This matter has not yet been investigated, and it is not yet conclusive to cover the coffin, a pair of embroidered shoe prints is nothing, there are people in the house who are greedy for money, and there is no shortage of embroidered shoes that have stolen the nine girls......" Xie Ying happened to speak out at the right time, although it could not clear Xiao Zhisu's suspicion, but it eased the tense atmosphere a lot. Bought her a lot of breathing time.

"According to the meaning of the sister-in-law, do you want to favor Susu? Although I also don't think Su Su would do this kind of thing, but ......" Xue Shiyan opened her mouth without being salty, dismantled the stage that Xie Ying had set up, and then continued, "What the sister-in-law said is also reasonable, the rules in the house are loose, and there is no shortage of young people. And it's just a shoe print, and it's not necessarily just passing by. ”
