Chapter 104: An Amazing Coincidence?
Realizing that Fluttershy is not gaining momentum, she is about to attack Xiao Ruoxue on the other side, but Xiao Min looks at her with cold eyes, only to see her shrink her neck, and endure not having a seizure!
Xiao Min looked at Xiao Ruoxue in front of him and the entourage behind him with an indifferent face.
But suddenly I was shocked!
Then the clothes on the maid behind Xiao Ruoxue actually looked a little familiar?
Xiao Min couldn't help but secretly pay a little more attention, and almost exclaimed in surprise after a closer look, it turned out that the little girl was wearing a pink and delicate floral cloth, and it was exactly the same as the one she found in this pool that day!
It was also the owner of the piece of fabric that he entrusted the steward to help him find.
Looking at the girl's eyes, I couldn't help but change!
At this moment, Fluttershy behind Xiao Min clearly noticed Xiao Min's shock, only to see that she secretly hooked the corners of her lips without showing a trace
Xiao Min couldn't help but glance at the maid behind Xiao Ruoxue, and after looking carefully, he didn't notice any damage on his body and then retracted his eyes.
"Sister, what a coincidence!" Xiao Ruoxue, who came back to her senses, greeted Xiao Mindao.
The little maid behind her seemed to be afraid of approaching Xiao Min, and some people even secretly took a step back, and even Xiao Ruoxue herself stepped forward to climb the other party when she saw Xiao Min in the past.
At this moment, he was standing in place awkwardly, neither advancing nor retreating. The smile on his face was even stiffer.
In the entire palace, everyone knows that the maid of Jufeng Palace is not only dead, but even the master in front of him almost fell into the water and died.
Xiao Min looked at Xiao Ruoxue in front of him and said lightly, "Yes, Sister Xue is so Yaxing!" The cold voice made it impossible to hear the joy and anger in the heart.
Xiao Ruoxue smiled brightly, and secretly glanced at the little maid beside her, if she hadn't been eager to see for herself the place where the woman who was high up in the past would have fallen into the lake and almost drowned, how would she meet her here?
I just want to think about it, Xiao Ruoxue's face has to be done, and during this time, it was not easy for her mother to inform the person who was unconvinced among the officials on the Internet on weekdays, so that the person was finally impressed by herself.
How could he not grasp the opportunity well, and even come into contact with these unfortunate things, if he provoked Lin Ruoxi to make some tramples for himself, wouldn't he lose more than he gained?
Xiao Ruoxue secretly weighed in her heart, and wanted to leave immediately, but she didn't dare to offend Xiao Min directly on her face, after all, her biggest competitor now was Lin Ruoxi, who seemed to be the most gentle and easy to bully on weekdays.
Nowadays, Xiao Ruoxue looks at Lin Ruoxi with a deep face, and it is difficult to compare her at this time with the woman who was bullied like a daughter-in-law by Lin Chuyi when they first met.
"Now that the wind and sun are shining, it's not good for my sister to rest in the house!" Xiao Ruoxue said that her face was full of sadness. "Originally, I came to visit my sister, but I was afraid of disturbing my sister's rest, but my sister is worried about it these days!" The face is not red and the heart is not beating.
"Hehe, thank you sister for your concern!" Now Xiao Ruoxue has also become arrogant? This is the biggest feeling in Xiao Min's heart.
"Yes, I'm also revisiting the old place, I want to come here to see what bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods are going to kill people without knowing it, and I almost put my sister in it!"
Xiao Min seemed to be aware, but said unintentionally. It's just that his sharp eyes have been staring at the woman in front of him.
Xiao Ruoxue was stunned at first, but then she seemed to understand the words, her face was full of anger and wanted to attack, but she couldn't help it, still smiling
"Sister is really funny, even if there are cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, it is impossible to run out in the daytime!" The smile on his face was obviously stiff because of his anger.
The little maids behind Xiao Ruoxue all looked at Xiao Min who was talking like this with indignation on their faces, as if it weren't for their identity, they were afraid that they would have already passed by and greeted her.
Seeing the menacing crowd over there, Fluttershy is naturally full of resentment, and the people on both sides are like gunpowder leads.
Xiao Min remained silent, took all the expressions of everyone into his eyes, and looked at Xiao Ruoxue's little face that was clear and red because of anger.
"My sister is just joking, my sister shouldn't take it seriously!" It seems to be a joke, as soon as these words came out, Xiao Ruoxue, who was originally innocent, looked a little better.
"By the way, my sister remembered that there was something else in the house, so I won't talk to my sister today!" It seemed that Fang Cai's words had indeed touched Xiao Ruoxue's brows, and at this moment she said coldly in an obviously unkind tone.
"Sister, please!" Xiao Min didn't hold back, looking at Xiao Ruoxue's back in defeat, and fell into deep thought
And at this moment, who was also looking at Xiao Ruoxue's departing back, there was also Xiaomei who was still angry on the side, and no one saw a loss in her eyes at this moment.
I don't know how long it has been? Until Fluttershy screams softly behind her.
"Mother, let's go!" Fluttershy looks at the lake where Mei was drowned that day, and then at Xiao Min, who is standing there not knowing what to think, and says tentatively.
Xiao Min didn't answer, and walked slowly towards the place where he fell into the water that day, and it took a long time.
"Has this garden been renovated?" Xiao Min pointed to the grass and trees next to him and asked suspiciously.
Fluttershy's eyes turned around a few times, and finally she looked at Xiao Min with a puzzled face, "No, I'm afraid that Niangniang doesn't notice the scenery here at all!" Fluttershy says honestly.
"Oh!" Seemingly surprised to learn the truth, Fluttershy's indifferent yes confuses the second monk.
After another unknown amount of time, Xiao Min withdrew her eyes and turned to Fluttershy, who had been waiting patiently next to her, "Let's go back!" ”
Fluttershy looked at Xiao Min's back with a complicated expression, and replied absent-mindedly, "Okay!" The two of them were speechless all the way back to the house.
It was close to noon when she returned to the house, and after lunch, Xiao Min still carried a chair as usual, and it was good to cool off under the big tree, only to see her lying comfortably on the chair squinting her eyes and falling asleep.
Fluttershy looks at Xiao Min, who narrows her eyes, and quietly leaves the courtyard
It wasn't until late evening that Xiao Min stretched comfortably, and at this moment Fluttershy was already respectfully waiting by her side, Xiao Min got up and moved her muscles, and returned to the house to look at the meal that had already been prepared, and couldn't help but sigh.
In the previous life, I said that I wanted to mix rice worms, but I felt bored after living such a day!
At this moment, the eunuch's respectful voice came from outside the house, "See the steward!" A few simple words, but with incomparable respect and humility, this is the person specially dispatched by the steward when Xiao Min had an accident a few days ago!
After a while, someone had already entered the door of the house, "See Niangniang!" It's still a few simple words, still with great respect, but there is no humility.
"Come in!" Xiao Min's hand that had just picked up the chopsticks was quickly put down, and he immediately got up and stood up.
When the middle-aged steward entered the house, Xiao Min didn't even have the heart to eat, and looked at the person who came with an eagerness.
The steward walked in and saw Xiao Min standing respectfully aside, and he immediately glanced at Fluttershy to the side, but did not speak.
Xiao Min immediately realizes and tells Fluttershy to bring herself a bowl of chilled pear soup.
Fluttershy doesn't say she's dissatisfied, but her slow steps show her mood at the moment, and Fluttershy glances at the steward as she walks past him, and walks out without saying a word.
After a while, there were only two people left in the room!
"Say it!" Xiao Min was not polite, and went straight to the point.
The visitor took out the pink fine flower cloth that Xiao Min had already seen in the imperial garden from his sleeve, and hesitated for a while, but finally spoke.
"This rag was specially sewn by the palace show bureau for the first-class maid in the palace when she participated in the 60th birthday of the former queen mother." The steward did not shy away from it and said directly.
"And then?" Xiao Min motioned to the other party to pick some key points.
The steward continued, "Yes, all the first-class maids in the harem may be suspicious!"
Xiao Min looked at the other party again, she never believed that just hearing such news was worth this person's trip to her place.
"My subordinates inquired, but all these things for the grand celebrations of the previous dynasty will be recycled and destroyed after they are used, even the clothes that are finely sewn are no exception!"
He didn't continue, but he couldn't help frowning at the extravagant atmosphere of the former neighboring water.
"The only important piece of news that my subordinates have found is that there is only one person in the palace who used to be from that show!" It really gets to the point!
Just when she didn't ask, the steward said directly, "The news checked by the subordinates, only the maid Chun Tao next to Xiao Ruoxue Niangniang is from there!" ”
Xiao Min's face was full of doubts, but in his heart, he felt that it was always like a coincidence that everything seemed too coincidental? Isn't it really as complicated as you think?
I didn't understand it after thinking about it, and I even felt that my scalp hurt, so I simply stopped asking.
Instead, he looked at the steward in front of him, "Where is Fluttershy, but she is very appetizing with this concubine, so let's keep her here in the future!" "There is also a bit of a lazy voice, which is not to be underestimated.
The steward told the news he knew, and he didn't explain too much, and agreed to Xiao Min's sudden questioning.
"That Fluttershy is from the water, and her subordinates see that she is clever, so she is temporarily here for Niangniang to send, and since Niangniang has taken a fancy to her, her subordinates will go to handle other matters!"
"That's great, of course!" Xiao Min was not polite, looking at the steward's lowered head, his eyes were shining with a lustful light!
Just as the steward leaves and passes by the door, he happens to run into Fluttershy, who has just returned, and the two look at each other again and leave.
As Fluttershy holds a bowl of cold pear soup, Xiao Min has no intention of eating, and after eating the cool pear soup, Xiao Min lies on her bed again, thinking about what happened during the day and the words R1152
