Yun Luo felt that something was wrong in Fang Ming's courtyard.

The courtyard was quiet, no one was in or out, as if it were an empty courtyard.

Yun Luo couldn't help but glance at the red tassel behind him, and doubts flashed in his eyes.

Hongying motioned for the little maid behind her to pick up and follow the young lady, and she ran quickly through Yunluo and advanced to a few wings in Fangming's courtyard, where all the maids who were familiar with her lived.

The figure of the red tassel flashed into the wing room, and Yun Luo saw the curtain of the main house lifted, and a figure as bright as a cloud came out.

It's Poria cocos.

She was holding a tray with sandalwood on it.

Seeing Yun Luo come in, he did not bend his knees and salute at the first time, but looked at him from a distance, and only after looking at him did he salute.

Yun Luo narrowed his eyes, approached step by step, and asked her, "Where is Mother?" In the house? Is it chanting or preparing for a meal? ……”

Poria lowered her head to look at the sandalwood in the tray, and replied in a low voice, "Madame is chanting, and she has instructed no one to disturb her." Young lady, please go back. ”

There was a faint mockery on his cheeks.

When Yun Luo heard this, he couldn't help but frown secretly.

My mother-in-law didn't know what she was doing recently, she hid in her own room and chanted Buddhism, refusing to see people, and she heard that every day she showed up in a hurry, and then left Mama Wang to assign specific chores, and she took Poria back to the house. asked the subordinates of Fangming Academy, and they all said that Mrs. Tang was obsessed with Buddhist scriptures, and she either chanted scriptures or copied scriptures all day long, and rarely showed up.

Other than that, it's business as usual.

But she always felt that something was wrong.

Something is wrong. I can't tell.

Hearing Poria's answer at this moment, the doubts in her heart became deeper and deeper.

The next moment, she went straight to the door and went to lift the curtain herself.

As soon as the flower in front of her eyes, Poria cocos rushed over from the side and pressed one hand on the back of her hand.

This Poria moves so fast. Yun Luo was subconsciously startled.

When I looked up, I collided with Poria Cocos's slightly defiant eyes.

In those big beautiful eyes, it was pitch black, and there was nothing. The emptiness makes people panic, as if ...... There is no soul in general.

It's very different from the old Poria cocos.

But the face and body are exactly the same, and I can't see the difference.

Yun Luo's heart couldn't say the feeling.

Her gaze fell lightly on Poria's slender and white fingers.

This finger. Each one is like a jade. Thin and long, it pressed against his porcelain-glazed palm, no less beautiful.

Poria followed her gaze and looked over, the next moment. He withdrew his hand.

She bent her knees and confessed: "Young lady." The slave did not dare to disobey the lady's instructions. Please don't embarrass me. ”

Although it is an accusation, his expression is a little uninhibited.

She didn't have the slightest respect for herself, if it weren't for the rules. Yun Luo had reason to believe that she had already put these things on the surface.

But who gave her the guts?

Yun Luo's gaze quickly glanced at the curtain of the big red gorilla.

I guess it's the one in the house.

Out of the corner of Yun Luo's eyes, he found that the originally empty Fang Ming Courtyard didn't know when, a few strange maids came out of the corner, standing aside in awe and not daring to come up, but the lowered gaze was very burning chasing after them.

Obviously, her conversation with Poria has caused quite a stir.

Yun Luo suddenly stopped thinking about breaking in, raised his eyebrows at Poria Cocos, and then turned around and walked in the opposite direction.

"Since my mother doesn't want others to disturb me, then I naturally can't disobey it, and I'll come over to say goodbye when my mother is empty." Yun Luo said as he prepared to go down the steps.

Poria followed behind her with sandalwood, bent her knees and said, "Yes." ”

Yun Luo nodded, walked down the steps, and smelled the rich scent of sandalwood coming from behind.

She sniffed softly—more than enough, not enough to calm her nerves.

It didn't smell as good as the sandalwood fragrance she lit when she copied the scriptures with Mrs. Fan in the past.

But she remembered that the sandalwood that her mother-in-law used to use was not like this.

Since Poria came back, it has become this taste.

She paused slightly, turned to look at Poria on the steps, and the sun was warm at this time, shining on her body, with a hazy light, making it impossible to see her expression.

But in this blur, Yun Luo clearly felt the hostility emanating from her.

The hostility...... It's clearly coming at her.

The next moment, Yun Luo turned his head and slowly left.

It's just that the hostile gaze behind him has never dissipated.

When they reached the door, Red Silk followed from the shadows.

The master and servant looked at each other, and then said goodbye to each other and walked out of the courtyard.

After walking a long distance, Hongying retreated from the little maid on the other side and helped Yunluo to walk in front.

"Young lady, the maids of Fangming Courtyard said that Mrs. has been particularly heavy recently, and she can even be described as 'pet letter'."

Pampering?

Yun Luo tilted his head and glanced at Hongying.

Hongying continued: "In the past, Poria and Banxia were the big maids next to Madame, Mama Wang was the housekeeper, and there were a few second-class maids. Especially Poria and Banxia, who served closely, should have been more important in Banxia in the past. But after Poria came back this time, the situation was completely different. In the past, when Mrs. chanted, it was always Banxia who led the little maid to serve beside her, but now, let alone the little maid, even Banxia couldn't get close to her, except for Poria Cocos, and Mama Wang was able to enter the main house to see Mrs. because she had to answer on an errand. ”

The rule of large families is that unless the master trusts the subordinates, they cannot be close to each other.

So in a strict sense, in the past, the only people who could see the master's face in Fangming Courtyard were Poria Cocos, Banxia, and Mama Wang.

But now the situation is ......

"Then the rest of the time, can Banxia still serve closely?" Yun Luo asked Hongying after thinking about it.

"At night, I still take turns on duty with Poria and Poria." Red Ying replied without thinking.

Yun Luo chwed his head and continued to walk forward slowly.

"Is there anything else unusual besides what you said above?" Yun Luo asked unhurriedly.

Hongying replied: "The slave maid heard from the maids of Fangming Courtyard that this Poria cocos can make sandalwood, and the lady has to light the sandalwood at every moment whether she is chanting or usually." And every time this Poria makes sandalwood, she locks herself in the house in the middle of the night and doesn't open the door until the next morning. Everyone privately said that she was a god, but no one had ever heard of her making sandalwood. ”

So weird?

Yun Luo remembered that the strange sandalwood fragrance she had smelled in Fangming Courtyard just now was stronger than the sandalwood smell she was used to, and it seemed to be mixed with the smell of some plants. (To be continued......)
