Cuizhi was frustrated when she heard the news that Shen Qingli refused to let her go back.

That time in Jingzhou, she pretended to be greedy and missed the time, and did not come back with her, in fact, she wanted to see Situ Kong, and when she saw that he was a little unwell, she took the initiative to ask Ying to stay and take care of him.

Later, inexplicably being tied up by the Huangfu clan and sent back, she didn't dare to tell Situ Kong, but just said that she went home, Situ Kong didn't seem to care about her at the time, just asked her why she came out for so long and didn't go back to the Yongding Hou Mansion, so she made up a lie, saying that she signed a living deed, and now that the contract is full, she doesn't want to go back to the Hou Mansion.

Situ Kong didn't ask again.

At that time, she was secretly happy, thinking that she could stay with him from now on.

Who knows, the last time she saw him kill Hongshang, she realized that this man was no longer the gentle and elegant Mr. Situ in her impression, but turned into an indifferent and ruthless staff member of the Guogong Mansion, Situ Kong, she was really scared, afraid that she would repeat in the footsteps of Hongshang, she didn't want to die!

"What are you thinking?" A warm voice rang out.

"Mr. Situ!" Cuizhi was startled and couldn't help but exclaim.

Obviously, the man in front of her was still as personable and radiant as he was at the beginning, but she felt that there seemed to be countless knives hidden between his smiling eyebrows and eyes, which could break people into thousands of pieces at any time, which made people feel frightening and uneasy.

"Why are you so scared? I can't eat people! Seeing her frightened look, Situ Kong smiled, stepped forward to hook her chin, his eyes stayed on the white neck for a moment, and chuckled, "Didn't you take the trouble to stay by my side in the first place?" How? Scared now? ”

How could a person of his age not see through the mind of such a little girl?

"No, slave, slave is willing to stay and serve Mr." Feeling the light sandalwood smell unique to him, she felt some inexplicable attachment to him.

The feeling had the poignancy and grandeur of a moth to a flame, which frightened her and made her unable to extricate herself......

Her heart pounded.

"Do you know why Red Dress died?" Situ Kong suddenly whispered in her ear, as if asking why Hongsheng was so casual.

Cuizhi shook her head with a pale face, not daring to look up at him.

"Because she's starting to figure out my thoughts!" Situ Kong smiled, a trace of coldness welled up in his eyes, and he said in a low voice, "Remember, don't figure out my mind or betray me at any time, otherwise, there is only one way to die, do you understand?" ”

"Slave understands!" Emerald was so nervous that she could barely speak.

"I have a letter here, you will go to the Yongding Marquis Mansion and hand it over to the second young lady in person, and you will hand it over to her personally, remember?" Situ Kong took out a pre-written letterhead and looked at her kindly, his eyes becoming gentle, as if he was such a gentle person.

Seeing her nodding blankly, he smiled, patted her on the shoulder, and walked into the study.

Cuizhi took the letter and walked out in a daze.

"You still know to come back and see!" Bi Tao glanced Cui Zhi up and down, and saw that the makeup on her face was much more delicate than before, so she sneered, "The second young lady went to Muying Hall to talk to Mrs. Tai, and said, what is the matter?" ”

"Sister Bi Tao, I, I want to find the second young lady again, I have to tell the second young lady in person." Cuizhi was snatched white by the peach, and his face turned red.

Although Cuizhi is one year younger than Bi Tao, she entered the house a year earlier than her, and the deed expired at the end of last year, Shen Qingli also asked her whether to stay or go back to her hometown, at that time she swore that she would not leave, and she would continue to stay on an errand in Qingxin Garden, because it was indeed the age of release, and she did not sign any more deed.

Right now, for the sake of a man, he disregarded the affection of the master and servant, and left without authorization, speaking of which, the Shen family was more lenient with his subordinates.

For the sake of Taozhi's face, Shen Qingli had already given her Cuizhi's identity deed, which means that she and them are two people.

"Well, just wait!" Bi Tao didn't look at her, raised her legs and left.

On Muyingtang's side, the Huangfu clan was pulling Shen Qingli to speak: "Yesterday, Yu Niang came to a letter, saying that Erlang has been living with her for the past few days, so let's rest assured, we will be back soon." After a pause, he said, "How can I say that the Tong family is also a powerful family in Jingzhou, presumably Dalang's affairs can also help a little." ”

Shen Qingli nodded yes.

Since he went out, he hadn't given her a word, and she could only know about him from others, and when she thought about it, she felt a little lost.

Was he so busy that he didn't even have time to tell her peace?

"Li girl, there is another great joy in our family!" Huangfu simply pushed the letter in front of her, and said with a smile, "Look, Yu Niang also said that she wanted to be a matchmaker for Erniang, saying that the Tong family has a cousin Chen family, and the Chen family is the same as your Shen family, and it is also a family of the former dynasty, and the family is also right with us, have you heard of this Chen family?" ”

"I have heard that the Chen family is a well-known benevolent person in Jingzhou, and often helps the common people who can't open the pot, and has a very good reputation in the local area. Shen Qingli said in a good manner.

Thirty years ago, in the restoration case of the former dynasty, most of those families of the former dynasty were driven to Jingzhou and Youzhou.

They are also fallen people at the end of the world, and they have some contact with each other, but they don't dare to interact too closely with each other, and some people, in order to protect themselves, simply close the door and live their own lives, such as the Shen family and the Chen family.

Therefore, although they are in Jingzhou, Shen Qingli is not very familiar with the Chen family, and he doesn't know much.

"I discussed with your father for half the night last night, and I think this family business is still good." Huangfu said, sighed, but Erniang didn't know about it! Grandmother plans to let you go and talk to her and Mei first, if she agrees, let her come to me and talk to me, if you don't agree, forget it, I'm old, I can't see the sad faces of my children and grandchildren! ”

Shen Qingli went to Shumei Garden as he said.

Yard, quietly.

Two little girls sat under the eaves and chatted with melon seeds.

It was the end of spring, and the plum blossoms on the branches had long since disappeared, leaving only the green branches trembling slightly in the wind.

A few green bamboos stood sparsely in the corner of the wall, adding a little brightness to the lifeless courtyard.

Seeing Shen Qingli, the two hurriedly put down the melon seeds in their hands, straightened their clothes, and got up to salute: "Second young lady." ”

"Where's the second miss?" Shen Qingli asked.

"The second lady is embroidering scriptures in the study." The girl in blue replied.

Shen Qingli walked in.

A cyan figure was sitting in front of the window, embroidering the embroidery in his hand with a needle and thread, his expression was very serene, Xu heard the footsteps, Mu Yao followed the prestige, hurriedly got up to meet him, and smiled lightly: "The second sister-in-law is here, sit here." ”

Immediately, a girl came in to serve tea.

Shen Qingli told her about the family affair that Mu Yu mentioned to her, and told her the Chen family's family background and Chen Gongzi's personality as it was, and when she saw her, she immediately smiled, bowed her head and said nothing, so she persuaded: "Second sister, the previous things have passed, and the days have to go forward!" ”

Soon after Sanniang's accident, Ah Qi took the initiative to ask Ying to investigate, and asked twice at first, Ah Qi said that the little girl who had served in Xifeng Pavilion disappeared silently, and the clues were broken, and the reason was not found for a while, but Sanniang's death was definitely not so simple.

Later, she didn't ask again.

"Second sister-in-law, since my grandmother and father are willing, then I will obey the arrangement." Mu Yao smiled reluctantly, she knew that her grandmother had never been authoritarian and alone in the matter of marriage, and most of them would still follow the opinions of her children and grandchildren, except for the fact that the royal family affairs could not be pushed away.

She is different from Mu Yu, although Mu Yu has lost her mother, but after all, she is the daughter of the house, with the favor of Mrs. Tai and her father, as well as the support of her sister-in-law's sons and brothers, no matter what she does, she always has her own temperament, no matter how much she messes around, no one dares to say anything.

But she is just a concubine, although she is raised by her mother-in-law, but after all, she is not her own mother-in-law, her mother-in-law is strong and strict, and her aunt is not favored, she does not dare to make her voice on weekdays, so she is always depressed.

was engaged to the eighth prince before, although she was not willing, but after all, she was the princess and concubine, if she married into the palace from now on, she would be like many women, or sad or sweet or indifferent to live her life.

But she didn't get married after all, but lost her sister's life because of it......

What choice does an ominous woman like her have?

Shen Qingli saw that she did not hesitate to respond to this family matter, and did not say anything more, sat down for a while, and then got up to say goodbye.

When I went back to the house, I saw Cuizhi, and I was very surprised.

When he saw the letter that was presented, he did not answer it.

Let Bi Tao read.

Recently, there is a kind of wild grass that flies and dances in Daliang, and everyone is proud of having a handwritten cursive handwriting, but please, she doesn't recognize it.

Bi Tao took the letter and said curtly: "Young lady, you have forgotten, slave maid, slave maid is illiterate. ”

"Then let's wait for Momozhi to come back!" Shen Qingli simply pushed the letter aside.

Seeing that neither of them intended to ignore her, Cuizhi retreated in embarrassment.

Xu Zheng happened to come out of Lixiangyuan, saw Cuizhi, smiled, and asked, "Miss Cuizhi, why are you here?"

"Slave, slave and maid, come and see the second young lady." Cuizhi smiled reluctantly.

"Mr. Situ asked you to come, didn't he?" Xu Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

Cuizhi didn't squeak, just bent her knees slightly at him, blessed her body, and ran towards the carriage parked not far from the side of the road with her skirt in her arms.

"Are you saying that Li Niang didn't open the letter to read?" Situ Kong was a little incredulous, how? Now she doesn't even want to read his letter?

"Yes, the young lady said that she would see it later." Cuizhi replied truthfully.

Situ Kong suddenly shook the tea bowl and said with a calm face: "Prepare the horse, I want to go to Jingzhou!" ”R1152
