Liu Ke raised his head suddenly, slowly moved forward with his stopped footsteps, and said distractedly: "Oh." ”

The snow on the ground had already fallen in a thin layer, and the low bushes of the low trees that had fallen their leaves in the backyard of the Liu family were hung with white snowflakes.

Liu Ke walked along the stone path leading to Xiuzhuyuan step by step, and the two girls were silent, as if they could understand her complex and tangled state of mind at this time.

Xiuzhuyuan was in sight, and Liu Qing couldn't help but say: "Miss, the slave maid just came back, Mama Li and Mama Zhang came back, and Mama Li asked about Miss." ”

Liu Ke's thoughts were interrupted, and after hearing this, he said lightly: "How did you get back?" ”

"The slave maid said that the eldest lady went to the meditation nunnery to worship the Buddhist scriptures." Liu Qing bowed his head and replied.

Liu Ke nodded, "Very good." ”

For Mama Zhang and Mama Li, Liu Ke did not want to be at peace with them.

The old lady thought that these two people could become her ears and eyes and lead her to make decisions, but such thoughts and wishes could only play a role without the other party's knowledge, but Liu Ke already knew these insights.

Unconsciously came to the gate of Xiuzhuyuan.

The courtyard gate was wide open, and a few rough little girls were cleaning the yard in the snow.

Seeing Liu Ke's return, they came over to salute.

"It's snowing so hard, why are you still cleaning, let's talk about it when the snow stops." Liu Ke said to them.

Several little girls were already so cold that their cheeks were red, and their hands with gloves were a little wooden, and after listening to Liu Ke's words, they quickly knelt down and thanked: "Thank you for your grace." ”

At this time, Mama Zhang and Mama Li heard the movement and walked out of the east wing.

Mama Li's eyes glared at the rough girl who was kneeling on the ground, first ignored them, and stepped forward to salute Liu Ke: "Hello Miss! ”

I don't know what the old lady said to them, their expressions now are very different from when they first arrived at Zizhu Courtyard, especially Mama Li, who is full of resentment.

Liu Ke ignored them. First, he said to a few little girls kneeling on the ground: "Get up, do what you have to do." ”

A few little girls got up and were about to leave, only to hear Mama Li scolding loudly: "Stop there and continue to clean the yard." If the eldest lady falls when she goes out because of the snow, will you bear it or me? ”

Mama Li originally wanted to use this to establish her authority, although Liu Ke said to let them go back, but she relied on herself as an old lady, and she once put Liu Ke in her eyes.

Liu Ke saw Mama Li's posture, and couldn't help but feel funny, she was going to argue with herself in person!

Liu Ke's face changed, and he said to Mama Li: "Now that the snow has been falling, how long are you going to let them sweep it?" If this snow falls for a day, will it be swept for a day? Will you sweep the next year? ”

Mama Zhang seemed to see that the situation was not good, so she hurriedly stepped forward to mediate, held Liu Ke's arm and said, "Miss, it's snowing outside and it's cold, let's go to the house first." Now that these little girls have been under the control of Mama Li, then she can take care of it as she likes, as long as she doesn't delay the eldest lady's affairs. ”

As soon as Liu Ke saw this posture, the two of them were going to sing a double reed, one with a red face and one with a white face.

Seeing this, Yuye secretly withdrew.

Mama Li has become notorious because of the matter of transferring the room. Simply be a strict steward of Xiuzhuyuan's order to prohibit and kill decisively.

And Mama Zhang's previous thing was that she was tired by Mama Li, and after a long time, people naturally knew that it was too late to play a gentle and warm mama now.

But he didn't want Liu Ke to hurriedly withdraw his hand from Mama Zhang's arm, and said with a surprised face: "Mama, why are you working so hard, are you still afraid that I will hit Mama Li?" ”

Mama Zhang's face was flushed when Liu Ke said it, and her hand was using force just now. But she just wanted to remind Liu Ke not to clash head-on with Mama Li, how could she listen to Liu Ke's words, as if she wanted to dominate her.

"Miss, don't get me wrong, the slave just wants you to enter the house quickly, don't freeze on this snowy day. The rest of the matter will be taken care of by the people below, so why bother with it. ”

Mama Zhang has lived in this back house all her life, how could she not even be able to pull this thing off.

As soon as she said what she had just said with a smile, Liu Ke was at a disadvantage again.

Liu Kejue was almost there, looked at the two of them with red eyes, and said, "I know that you have served the old lady before, so I don't dare to say what you do, but today these little girls are still so young, so let them freeze in the snow, how can the two grandmothers bear it."

are all children raised by their parents, and most of their sons and mothers are on duty in various parts of the house, if they know that their daughter has been wronged under Mama Li, wouldn't they have hatred for Mama.

Besides, there is always a time when the snow stops, and when the snow stops, everyone will work together to clean the yard in a while, so why let them keep cleaning in the snow.

I think about my grandmother, but I don't want to be misunderstood by my grandmother.

Mama is the old man of the Liu family, and she has always been the same, and I also know this, but today, for the sake of Mama's reputation, I will intercede for these girls, let them go back to warm up first, and hope that Mama will allow it. ”

At first, Mama Li listened in a daze, and the more she listened, the more she found that Liu Ke's words were actually going to put her to death.

Today, she just wanted to use this matter to establish her position among the girls, but she didn't expect to be used by Liu Ke.

"It turns out that my sister can't even say a word in this courtyard." Liu Wan's voice came from the gate of the courtyard.

Liu Ke turned around and nodded at Yuye, who hurried back.

Yuye is really a clever person, she didn't go directly to the Han family, but went to Liu Yun.

If she went to inform Han directly, it would inevitably make Han suspect that she was acting deliberately, but if it was Liu Wan, it would be different.

She will fully trust Liu Ke, including the people around her, and will not hesitate to stand by Liu Ke's side.

With Liu Wan's joining, things will be much more exciting.

Don't be afraid that it won't reach Han's ears.

After Liu Wan listened to Liu Ke's words, he was already angry, and now he has been extremely restrained when he says this.

When Mama Li saw that it was Liu Wan, she couldn't help sneering in her heart.

She knew that Liu Wan had never been liked by the old lady, and now she was not even afraid of Liu Ke, she would still be afraid of Liu Wan.

"Second Miss's words are inappropriate, who said that the eldest lady can't say a word in this courtyard, didn't the eldest lady say a basket just now?" Mama Li was angry in her heart, and she knew that there was an old lady behind her. Knowing that Liu Ke didn't dare to do anything, he spoke more arrogantly than just now.

But she forgot that Liu Wan's temperament was different from Liu Ke's.

She never does things recklessly, and she doesn't think about things like Liu Ke.

After Liu Wan listened to Mama Li's words. stepped forward and slapped her, scolding, "Are you talking to me? ”

Mama Li was caught off guard, and her body stumbled backwards and almost fell.

Covering his face and looking at Liu Wan in surprise, he reacted after a while, patted his legs and cried: "I have served the old lady all my life, and the old lady has not moved a finger of me, and now I am beaten in front of the little master, it can be seen that I am old and useless, so I will quit the old lady and return to old age, and I have no face to serve in this family anymore." ”

Mama Li said and walked out. But she was grabbed by Mama Zhang, and just about to persuade her, she heard Liu Wan sneer: "What Mama said is good, I'm afraid you can't bear to be here." ”

After Liu Wan finished speaking, he said to everyone: "Since Mama Li is leaving, don't stop you." The temple of Xiuzhuyuan can't accommodate her big Buddha. ”

Mama Li had already taken two steps, and after listening to Liu Wan's words, she had to stop, if she really left, she would have taken it up.

"Second Miss's words, the slave maid can't afford it, and the slave maid has done her best since she came to Xiuzhuyuan. I have never been entrusted with the old lady's side because I used to be, and I only think about the eldest lady. ”

Mama Li turned around and argued.

Liu Xuan sneered: "You mean that this qiē is the fault of the eldest sister." ”

Liu Ke wiped his tears and said, "Forget it, don't make any noise, let the rest of the family hear something like it, and Wan'er will follow me into the house." Mama can do whatever she wants. ”

At this time, it happened that the Han family heard that there was a noise in Xiuzhuyuan, and sent Qiuping over to inquire about it.

Qiuping stood outside the courtyard and listened to Liu Wan shouting: "What do you tell her to do what she wants, what are you?" Who is the slave and who is the master in this courtyard? ”

"Quietly. Do you want the whole family to go up and down, knowing that I can't even control the minions around me? Liu Ke's voice said to Liu Wan eagerly, "If that's the case, how can I follow the third aunt to deal with the chores in the future." ”

Sure enough, there was no more noise in the courtyard.

Han just asked Qiuping to come over to investigate, and didn't let her interfere, so she stood outside the courtyard and listened, and then went back.

But Xiuzhu Garden has not stopped.

Mama Li cried and wanted to find the old lady, but Mama Zhang desperately refused to let her.

When the two of them were inseparable, Liu Ke shouted: "Okay, don't make trouble!" ”

Xiuzhu Garden suddenly fell silent.

Liu Ke glanced at them coldly, walked a few steps forward, came to Mama Li, and said: "I understand what Mama means, I think if I don't accept the soft Mama, Mama will definitely continue to make trouble, okay, you don't have to go to the old lady to ask for resignation, I'll go to the old lady to ask for punishment!" ”

With that, she walked towards the courtyard gate.

Yuye and Liu Qing followed closely behind.

Liu Wan also followed quickly and said, "Sister, you have fueled their arrogance more and more. ”

Liu Ke glanced sideways at Liu Wan, the corners of his mouth raised and he didn't speak.

After Mama Zhang reacted, she hurriedly caught up and said, "The eldest lady is angry, the slave maid intercedes for Mama Li, and I hope that you don't remember the villain, don't be with her, she is old and confused, offended the eldest lady, and I hope that the eldest lady will not worry about her for the sake of the old lady she once served." And now that the old lady is having lunch, don't bother her old man's house. ”

Liu Ke's feet kept stopping, and his feet creaked, "Mama, don't get me wrong, I'm not going to sue, I'm here to ask for guilt." ”

Mama Zhang gave Mama Li a look while blocking her, and made her soften.

Mama Li didn't seem to see it, and said while crying: "Since the eldest lady doesn't give me a way to live, then I won't live either." As he spoke, he sought death and came alive.

Liu Ke stopped and glanced back at Mama Li, and saw that she was standing in place and did not move, and sneered in her heart, this is her army.

She didn't say anything and continued to walk towards the Garden of Compassion.

When she arrived at the Garden of Compassion, the doorkeeper at the gate of the courtyard was dumbfounded when she saw Liu Ke coming violently, and she forgot what Liu Jiafu had instructed, and watched Liu Ke enter the courtyard.

The old lady Wang was about to have lunch, and when she heard Liu Ke's voice outside, her heart moved, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

She always knew that Liu Ke had a temper, but this kid covered it up too well, and finally forced her temper out today.

But to the surprise of the old lady Wang, Liu Ke did not ask for the guilt of being angry, and did not ask for the grandmother in the courtyard, and after a few words, she was in a dilemma.
