That night, Hua Tian stayed in Ronghua Hall and no longer went to see Shen Jinyu.
She originally planned to practice calligraphy and painting every day, but today she spent the whole day in Ronghua Hall, so she could only make up for it at night.
Before going to bed, there was no big news.
It seems that Hua Chuzhi's being pushed into the pool last night will become an unsolved case.
As the only person who may know about the murderer, Hua Chuzhi himself seems to want to pursue it further. Because the longer it passes, the more the evidence disappears. Hua Chuzhi has never dealt with this matter.
"Miss, this is a good way today. Mother Gui must have believed it, and she will not embarrass the slave in the future. Lilac said with a smile while waiting for Hua Tian to get into bed.
Her cheeks were still high and swollen, and she looked a little shocking.
"It's better to be careful, let your mother always pay attention, don't say the wrong thing." Hua Tian said with a yawn.
Lilac nodded, "Tomorrow morning, Mother Lan will help me remove the makeup on my face?" ”
"Hmm." Hua Tian nodded, suddenly thought of something, frowned and said, "Because I only punished you recently, I will go to the Lin Mansion to watch a play tomorrow, but I am afraid that I will not be able to take you." ”
Agarwood, who was putting down the gauze tent next to him, also frowned when he heard this.
"The slave maid stays in the house, and Miss you take the agarwood with you." Lilac said with a smile.
Because of the thick makeup on his cheeks, he looks like he has been beaten and swollen, so his face is a little weird when he speaks.
"Now that there are a lot of things going on in the house, I am worried about what will happen to you. You're overwhelmed. Hua Tian nodded Lilac's head and said.
If Agarwood stayed in the house, she wouldn't have to worry. Agarwood is delicate. The house fighting skill is almost at the full level, and it can handle everything more than flexibly.
"Lilac is in the house, I only remember what happened, don't come forward to mix, I should be able to avoid it." Agarwood said on the side.
Hua Tian thought about it for a while, and always felt that it was inappropriate, so he said. "Tomorrow morning, Agarwood Tui said that his stomach was uncomfortable and he stayed in the house. I couldn't have been more than willing to take the cloves with me. ”
"That's a good idea, too." Agarwood and cloves both said with a smile.
The next day, Agarwood had a group of gossiping lilacs in other gardens in the house yesterday, and he went to the kitchen to get breakfast with a calm face.
Before he returned to Ronghua Hall, his face changed drastically. Holding his stomach, he called the maid who passed by to send him to Ronghua Hall early, and rushed to the side.
At that time, the sixth lady Hua Tian took the lilac, who had only been punished yesterday, to the carriage driven by the old king's head and went to the Lin Mansion.
And Agarwood, as a henchman who is about to win the favor of Miss Six, stayed in the house because of diarrhea.
Seeing this, Rongyue and the other girls gathered together in a pile and discussed a few words in a low voice. can see the unwillingness in each other's eyes, as well as deep jealousy.
"I heard that Mother Qi found Mother Gui as a backer and kept the cloves. Otherwise, yesterday. The young lady is about to kick Lilac out. ”
"She's really amazing, yesterday I thought I would lose Miss's heart, I don't want to go over Agarwood today and follow to the Lin Mansion."
"Agarwood has diarrhea, it's really weird to pull it......"
"It's a shame that she scolded us for cloves in the morning, but she didn't know that someone was calculating......"
Agarwood walked over with her stomach in her arms. Seeing a group of maids whispering, he shouted. "Chewing the root of your tongue here again? Get to work. ”
Hua Tian took the carriage to the Lin Mansion, but at the end of the day, this was the second time she went, and she was familiar with the way.
After entering the Lin Mansion, he was taken by the girl into Lin Biyu's garden.
Hua Tian thought that he was the first to arrive, but as soon as he entered the side hall, he saw Zheng Ke already sitting aside.
"Liuniang, you're here." Zheng Ke heard the footsteps, looked up and saw Hua Tian, so he said hello.
"It's good, the eldest lady of the Zheng family liked to talk to Liuniang before, Liuniang, you go and accompany her." Lin Biyu glanced at Hua Tian and said with a smile.
Hua Tian saw Lin Biyu's eyes, puzzled, she looked at Zheng Ke again, and saw that Zheng Ke was not as active as usual, but a little gloomy, and his eyes were also wooden, as if he had been thinking about something.
She also wanted to ask Lin Biyu, but she heard that another guest was coming, and Lin Biyu was going to greet her.
So I had to go to Zheng Ke hard.
Zheng Ke was playing with an exquisite nine-link in his hand, but his mind obviously didn't know where it had gone. The nine rings are only exchanged in the hand.
"Sister Zheng Ke, you came really early today." Hua Tian sat next to Zheng Ke and said softly.
Zheng Ke nodded, bitterness flashed in his eyes, and he responded, "Hmm." I stayed in Lin Mansion last night and didn't go home, so it's early. ”
Hearing this, Hua Tian wanted to speak and stopped, but he never asked after all.
It seems that Zheng Ke is indeed in a very bad mood.
Just as she was thinking about saying something more to make Zheng Ke feel a little more relaxed, Lin Biyu led a woman she had never seen before into her with a complicated expression.
The woman was only ten years old, wearing a blue shirt and a chic scarf around her waist, which looked very charming. A small and delicate melon seed face looks as beautiful as Hua Chudan before he was disfigured.
See Hua Tian look over. Lin Biyu glanced at Zheng Ke, and then introduced, "This is the second lady of the Zheng family." ”
"Sister, you lived in the Lin Mansion yesterday, are you still used to it?" The second lady of the Zheng family blessed her body slightly, saluted Zheng Ke, and asked.
Zheng Ke raised his head, glanced at the second lady of the Zheng family, his eyes were complicated, and finally nodded, and said coldly, "Great." ”
Hua Tian saw Zheng Ke's attitude on the side, and he had a rough plan in his heart. I think Zheng Ke is unhappy, it has something to do with this sister who suddenly appeared.
It's just strange, if it's two sisters, how come they have never heard of it? This Zheng Erniang's behavior is in line with etiquette, not like a woman who has never participated in a banquet.
"This lovely sister is the sixth mother of the Hua family, right?" The second lady of the Zheng family was unimpressed by Zheng Ke's coldness, looked at Hua Tian with a smile, and asked.
Hua Tian hurriedly stood up and saluted, and then said, "I've seen Second Sister Zheng......"
Hearing Hua Tian's title. Zheng Erniang smiled even sweeter, and she handed Hua Tian a gold bracelet with a tangled branch on her hand. Laughed
"My single name is a 'Wan' character, and Liuniang can call me Sister Wan. I heard that Miss Hua Liu was humble and virtuous, and now I see that it is true. Liuniang and I hit it off at first sight, and this bracelet bento should be a gift for the first meeting. ”
Hua Tian hurriedly shook his head and excused himself, and said, "Sister Wan is very loving." Liuniang was ashamed. ”
She was originally good friends with Zheng Ke, and Zheng Wan gave herself a gift as soon as she came. His heart can be punished!
"Hehe, how can you not dare to take it." Zheng Wan sat next to Hua Tian, the bracelet in his hand still hadn't been taken back, and he stretched out to Hua Tian slightly.
Suddenly, Zheng Ke said on the side. "Liuniang, since Erniang has given it to you, you will accept it."
Hua Tian was stunned for a moment, and was about to say something, when Zheng Wan had already stuffed the entangled gold bracelet in his hand.
She looked at Zheng Ke, then at Zheng Wan, and said with a wry smile, "Actually, there is no return gift on Liuniang." If you take this bracelet, you will be ashamed. ”
She was naturally joking, she was only five years old now, which is the age to receive gifts. How can something be sent out in return? Saying this is just a good etiquette.
"Don't laugh at Liuniang, how can you ask Liuniang to return the gift." Zheng Wan said, changed his words, and said, "I heard that Second Mrs. Hua is seriously ill. I need to raise a sum of money to ask Dr. Yao for treatment, but is it not? ”
Hua Tian lowered his eyelids. This happened yesterday, I didn't expect this Zheng Wan to know today, Aunt Wan's crying by the courtyard wall yesterday was really efficient, and even the young lady in the boudoir knew about it.
"Don't hide it from Sister Wan, there is indeed such a thing." Hua Tian nodded and replied, but he didn't plan to say anything more.
Zheng Wan lowered his eyelids and was about to say something more, but saw Lin Biyu lead several delicate women in.
"Hey, we said we were the first, and I didn't think anyone would arrive before us." As soon as Fan Mingzhu came in and saw Hua Tian and Zheng Ke, his eyes lit up, and he walked over and sat next to Zheng Ke.
Because Fan Mingzhu came, Zheng Wan no longer chased Hua Tian for questioning, but talked with Fan Mingzhu.
Gradually, more and more girls came to their homes, and soon Lin Biyu no longer went out to greet guests, but sat in the hall, eating fruits and laughing with everyone.
Because Liu Bihe came from Beijing, there was a circle of people around her to talk to her.
Although Zheng Wan is a newcomer, he is very good at talking, and he soon became familiar with everyone, and spoke in a small circle.
Hua Tian was still sitting near Zheng Ke, silently listening to Fan Mingzhu say that she had bought a new coral at home, how beautiful it was.
Fan Mingzhu talked endlessly for a while, seeing that only Lin Biyu and Hua Tian occasionally responded to a few words, Zheng Ke, who likes to talk on weekdays, didn't say a word.
"I mean, even if she comes out, you won't be like that, right?" Wang Yue saw Fan Mingzhu looking at Zheng Ke worriedly, so he pulled Zheng Ke's sleeve.
Hua Tian sensitively guessed that this "she" must be Zheng Wan!
"No, I just don't want to talk." Zheng Ke shook his head and replied.
"Why don't you want to talk, you're obviously boring!" Wang Yue's eyes narrowed and looked at Zheng Ke.
Lin Biyu and Fan Mingzhu were a little embarrassed, you look at me, I look at you, they didn't make a sound.
Hua Tian sat beside him, listening cheekily without saying a word.
Seeing that Zheng Ke was still like this, Wang Yue looked at Zheng Wan, who was smiling openly not far away, with bright eyes and bright teeth not far away, and said in a low voice,
"Even if she has a younger brother, she is not a concubine? As long as your mother is still a serious Mrs. Zheng, she can't go over your head. Even she, and her younger brother, who was just born, have to call your mother 'mother', aren't you asking for trouble at this time? ”
Hearing this, Hua Tian vaguely understood.
Zheng Ke's father's concubine gave birth to Zheng Wan, which is not worth mentioning. Who knows, the little concubine recently gave birth to another child, this will be a boy, so Zheng Ke is depressed.
Judging from Zheng Ke's feeling so uneasy, and Zheng Wan being so happy, Zheng Wan's younger brother should be the only male at present!
Although the concubine and the concubine should be raised in front of the main wife, but looking at Zheng Ke's mood, he knows that Zheng Wan's biological mother is not easy to handle - or in other words, from Zheng Wan's style of acting, he knows that her biological mother is very amazing!
