Zhu Zhu looked at Wei Susu, and always felt that she was obviously smiling, but she seemed to be wearing a mask on her indifferent face, and couldn't help but pull Wei Qingqing: "Why don't you go and invite the Duchess of the Kingdom to come, these things are not up to us juniors." ”

Wei Susu didn't care about Zhuzhu, she just looked at Wei Qingqing, she knew that Wei Qingqing was a smart person.

"Miss Wei, don't worry, I don't mean anything, I just think that you and I are all for my brother, it's best to say this in private, are you right?" Wei Susu smiled sweetly, with two small dimples on her lips, which looked simple and harmless.

Wei Qingqing looked at her, but what came to her mind was the sentence that Rong Ruizhang said, 'The fire was set by Su Su'.

"That's so." Wei Qingqing looked at Wei Susu, who was confident, and smiled: "Third Miss, it's better to go and tell my father directly, my brother's affairs are not for my sister to interfere in." ”

After that, Wei Qingqing pulled Zhu Zhu away.

Zhu Zhu looked back at Wei Susu, who didn't seem to be expecting it, and couldn't help laughing as he walked: "Miss Wei, you are really interesting, I thought you would definitely agree." ”

"Isn't I stupid when I know it's a trap and I'm jumping in?" Wei Qingqing winked at Zhu Zhu.

Zhu Zhu was even happier, and she liked this Miss Wei more, and took her to the back garden to pick a lot of flowers to send her back.

Wei Qingqing did not refuse, and the flowers in the back garden of the Zhu family were rich. She picked some more and went back to make some flowers and cakes for Ge Lao to satisfy his hunger.

Not long after, Xu Yao came, with a group of sons by her side.

Zhu Zhu's maid quietly reminded her, and Zhu Zhu looked up and found that she immediately frowned and wanted to pull Wei Qingqing away, but Xu Yao shouted at her from afar: "Zhuzhu, don't you know how to salute when you see your cousin and cousin?" ”

Zhu Zhu was slightly annoyed, doesn't my cousin know that there is a difference between men and women, Wei Qingqing has clearly decided on family affairs. Where is it good to meet these foreign men here?

"Lian'er, you take Miss Wei to my room first." Zhu Zhu immediately commanded.

Yahuan, who was named Lian'er, immediately responded, Wei Qingqing didn't want to cause more trouble, so she obeyed and walked away with flowers, but when she was halfway through, suddenly a foreign man came to her, Lian'er directly pushed Lan Zhi out to block, and she pulled Wei Qingqing to avoid in another direction.

"Miss Wei, this is a shortcut, let's go here."

Walking to a fork in the road, Lian'er suddenly pointed to the hanging flower doorway on the side.

Wei Qingqing took a deep look at Lian'er, she had been to Zhu's house, and naturally knew that this hanging flower door did not lead to the backyard house at all, but Lian'er was Zhu Zhu's personal ring, and Zhu Zhu should not want to harm her.

"You don't have to cut corners." Wei Qingqing refused Lian'er to go forward, Lian'er obviously panicked, and stepped forward to stop Wei Qingqing in a few steps. Laughed: "Miss Wei, aren't you worried that the slave will harm you?" Walking ahead, maybe I will meet other foreign men, this short-distance slave often walks, and it will be fine. ”

Wei Qingqing saw that she dared to stop herself from moving forward, and she felt more and more that there was a ghost in this hanging flower gate.

Sure enough, during the stalemate, Wei Susu's personal maid Huan Bixue walked out.

"Miss Wei, my third lady has something to say to you."

"Lian'er, if you still care about your young lady, you'd better tell your young lady about it immediately." Wei Qingqing knew that she couldn't escape today, so she only looked at Lian'er coldly.

Lian'er lowered her head weakly, and she didn't make a sound.

Bixue turned sideways to make way for Wei Qingqing, looked at Lian'er with a little warning, and then closed the hanging flower door and went to another place.

The arrangement in the Hanging Flower Gate, Wei Qingqing is not unfamiliar, she remembers that Zhu Daxue has an unknown secret, of course, these are all she has collected, planning to win people for Rong Ruizhang, but later she felt that Zhu Daxue is an upright person, so she has never told Rong Ruizhang.

Thinking of this, Wei Qingqing didn't go straight forward, but stopped his steps, turned around and walked somewhere by the courtyard wall.

This courtyard wall is covered with green ivy, and ordinary people will only glance at it in a hurry and not pay much attention to it, but Wei Qingqing walked to the courtyard wall, and after stopping for a while, he opened the ivy like a waterfall, and saw the wooden door of the same color as the inside and the wall.

The paint on the wooden door had peeled off in pieces, and the lock on the door was rusty, but the place where it was usually used to knock on the door was as clean as new, and it was evident that people still came to open the lock from time to time.

Wei Qingqing thought of what was going on inside the wooden door, and her heart was slightly ruthless, she didn't want to hurt Scholar Zhu, but she was not kind enough to sacrifice herself.

Wei Qingqing thought about it, knocked heavily on the wooden door, and called softly: "Third Miss, are you here?" ”

Anyway, there was no sound inside.

Wei Qingqing didn't leave, but said, "Didn't Xiaolian say that the third lady of the General's Mansion was waiting for me here, why didn't she see anyone?" After that, Wei Qingqing shouted a few more words.

After a long time, the courtyard was still very quiet, but Wei Qiongwei, who was waiting in another place at the moment, was already a little impatient. Didn't the third sister say that she would bring Wei Qingqing to the front, why hasn't she seen anyone for so long?

Thinking about it, Wei Qiongwei got up to find Wei Qingqing, but behind Wei Qingqing, an old woman had already appeared.

The old woman was dressed in neat and clean plain satin, her silver hair was meticulously combed, and her eyes were even sharper, and when she looked at Wei Qingqing, she also looked at her at a glance. Cai said: "This young lady is lost?" ”

"Are you from Zhufu?" Wei Qingqing turned around and asked.

"Yes." After the old woman answered, she quickly said: "There is no hospitality in the ordinary mansion here, the young lady must be lost, why don't you let the slave take you out." ”

"It's okay, it's the first time I've come to Zhufu, I'm not familiar with the road, presumably the third lady is still waiting for me." Wei Qingqing nodded obediently, as if she didn't have the slightest doubt why there was a closed door under this ivy.

The old woman didn't ask much, and quickly took her to another way and sent her out.

When Wei Qingqing was sent out, the old woman's eyes sank a little more, and there were already people around him going back and forth: "I did find someone from General Wei's Mansion in the courtyard, but it was not the third lady of the General's Mansion, but the second son." ”

Hearing this, the old woman took a deep look at the back of Wei Qingqing leaving, she didn't know how much she had seen such a dirty frame, this young lady was indeed a celestial figure, no wonder she caused these troubles.

But it seems that it is no coincidence that she was able to find the small wooden door directly, the people of the General's Mansion want to borrow this young lady's hand to expose the master? This is indeed a double win, which harms both the young lady and the Zhu family.

"Go and ask the scholar to come."

The old woman whispered a low order to the people around her, and then turned around and left.

And Wei Qiongwei didn't know what was going on, so he only looked for Wei Qingqing until Scholar Zhu hurriedly brought someone in.

When Wei Qingqing heard the movement in the courtyard, Lan Zhi had already brought Zhu Zhu to find her.

"Miss!"

Lan Zhi's face turned pale and she looked Wei Qingqing up and down. Seeing that she was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But Wei Qingqing's gaze at her was not a little deep, she came to Zhufu today, Lan Zhi was obviously separated, but how did she find it with Zhuzhu, as if she knew that something had happened to her?

"Miss Wei, are you alright?"

Zhu Zhu hurriedly asked Wei Qingqing.

Wei Qingqing retracted her gaze and smiled lightly: "I'm fine, but I just got lost, but fortunately, someone sent it out." After speaking, Wei Qingqing said goodbye, she should not be too involved in the affairs of the Zhu Mansion, and today's affairs, presumably Zhu Daxue will soon find Zhu Zhu, and Xiaolian's betrayal must not be hidden.

Lan Zhi found that since bidding farewell to Zhuzhu, Wei Qingqing's body was covered with a thick layer of frost, Lan Zhi knew that she must have been exposed, and she held her palms nervously all the way and didn't dare to squeak until she met Rong Ruizhang head-on.

Seeing Rong Ruizhang again after many days, Wei Qingqing was a little surprised.

With his identity, he should disdain to come to the home of a five-grade civil official in person, but looking at him today, he is dressed decently, although he has lost a lot of weight, but a pair of slightly sunken eyes are full of light, and he seems to have changed from a few days ago.

"Miss."

Seeing Rong Ruizhang, Lan Zhi subconsciously blocked Wei Qingqing. But the strange thing is that Rong Ruizhang only glanced at Wei Qingqing deeply, and then left without saying a word to the officials who came to talk to him.

Lan Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, but Wei Qingqing's heart was lifted, Rong Ruizhang finally came back to his senses!

Zhufu and Wei Mansion are both in Yuqian Lane, so after coming out, Wei Qingqing walked back directly, and walked all the way to the small courtyard with his head down, only to see Rong Che who was drinking with Ge Lao under the old camphor tree.

"Hey, the little fox is back, so I won't talk nonsense with you old fox."

Ge Lao sighed, hugged the wine jar and pulled the reluctant Wei Hu out.

Wei Qingqing knew that Rong Che must have something to say to him, so he stepped forward and saluted, and asked him, "What does the second master want to say?" ”

"Are you so sure you didn't come to see you?" Rong Che held the white porcelain wine glass, leaned on the back of the chair a little lazily, looked at her evilly, saw her eyes cold, and smiled: "I want to leave the capital for a few days." ”

"Second master has a good trip." Wei Qingqing replied.

Rong Che couldn't hear her perfunctory: "Your eldest brother's invitation." I'm afraid I won't be able to go to the banquet until I come back, I've read his article, and he doesn't have to worry about the autumn test in the second half of the year. As for your second brother, although he is reckless, he is not a very stupid person, you don't have to worry too much, just prepare for marriage in the mansion with peace of mind. ”

Seeing that he dared to talk about getting married, Wei Qingqing's eyes became a little colder, and he asked his mother to pretend to be pitiful to deceive himself, and he did it to him.

Rong Che's slender fingers slowly rubbed the wine glass, and told her that it would be dangerous to go out by herself this time, but when the words came to her mouth and she swallowed it back, she would definitely not be worried, so why let her worry a little.

"Rong Ruizhang is a very ambitious person, he has ambition and stamina, he can bow low and be small, and he can also endure humiliation. Although he was a little out of control during this time, with his cleverness and the guidance of those around him, I believe he will soon come back to his senses. Rong Che glanced at Lan Zhi, who was standing behind Wei Qingqing, and said, "Lan Sheng and Lan Zhi were all selected by me to give you, their deeds of sale are in your hands, and they will be your people in the future, you can use them with confidence." ”

Lan Zhi knelt down directly for Wei Qingqing: "The slave maid wanted to tell the young lady, but she was afraid that the young lady would drive the slave and maid away, so she hid it until now." Please also ask the lady to forgive her sins. ”

Wei Qingqing had guessed that it might be Rong Che's handiwork, but he didn't expect it to be him.

"Thank you, Second Master."

Wei Qingqing responded without being salty.

Rong Che wanted to say something more, but Ah Peng came in from outside: "Master, the carriage is ready, and the eyes of the capital are now on the Zhu family, it is a good time for you to leave the capital." ”

"Hmm."

Rong Che looked at Wei Qingqing again, and saw that she really didn't worry about herself, and sighed in her heart, who let him only be busy with outside things in his last life. Didn't tell her what she was thinking? She has experienced such suffering, and now it is common for her to resist herself like this.

"Wait for me at home obediently, in this life, I will protect you well." Rong Che got up, looked at Wei Qingqing, who was a head shorter, and rubbed her head with a smile, before leaving.

He walked for a long time before Wei Qingqing felt that the unique cold fragrance that lingered on the tip of his nose slowly dissipated.

"When will the second master come back?" Wei Qingqing turned around and asked.

Rong Che's footsteps stopped slightly. Turning around and looking at her who was frowning slightly, her heart instantly softened: "Half a month." ”

Ah Peng raised his eyebrows, half a month? The second master is afraid that he will not be free day and night, and he doesn't know if it will go smoothly with this danger.

"The matter of the eldest brother and the second brother, the courtiers can still count on the second master." Wei Qingqing lowered her eyes and saluted him.

"Okay."

Rong Che smiled and left.

Wei Qingqing looked at his back as he left, and only then did he turn around and sit down on the side of the porch until the corners of his snow-white clothes flew across the porch.

Spring passed quickly, and the weather became muggy, and at night the pond frogs cried incessantly.

Yu Xia and Qiu Ling were wilted for the past two days, because Fang Zijiao really handed over their deed of sale to Wei Qingqing, so they didn't dare to be so casual when they served Wei Qingqing, so they didn't want to keep vigil anymore after a day, so they sent Lan Sheng and Lan Zhi here.

But this is exactly what Wei Qingqing wants.

"Miss, the slave will come with you."

Lan Zhi changed Wei Qingqing into a set of old clothes she found from Wei Hu, and made a good man's head for her.

Wei Qingqing glanced at Xiaobai, who was waiting outside, and then at Lan Zhi, but did not refuse.

Lan Zhi hurriedly responded happily, instructed Lan Sheng to look at it, and went out with Wei Qingqing.

The moonlight was very good tonight, and a few people went out, easily avoiding crowded places, all the way to the mouth of the alley that Wei Qingqing was looking for.

And at the mouth of the alley at this moment, there is already a mother-in-law who is floating around with her waist and eyes around.

"Miss, she's Granny Xi." Xiaobai hurriedly said.

"Hmm." Wei Qingqing motioned for the two of them to guard on both sides, and then walked over alone.

When Granny Xi saw Wei Qingqing, who was dressed as a man, she was stunned: "You were sent by your master?" ”

"Mother-in-law has served Miss Zhang?" Wei Qingqing directly threw a piece of broken silver to her.

Granny Xi hurriedly bit the silver into her mouth to make sure it was true, so she hurriedly smiled and nodded: "Yes, but Miss Zhang, now that I can be the old lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I am a lowly person, I don't dare to recognize the master anymore." ”

"When she was young and about to get married. Once decided on a family affair, do you remember which family? Wei Qingqing asked.

Granny Xi didn't expect Wei Qingqing to know about this, she looked at her in surprise, and saw her dark eyes looking at her as if she was bottomless, so she couldn't help but shudder and took two steps back: "I don't remember this matter very clearly......

"Presumably Old Madam Zhang will be glad to know that you are hiding here." Wei Qingqing stared at her: "If you hadn't said that she had set a marriage before marrying into the Rong family, she could have gotten her most cherished chastity archway two years earlier, wouldn't she?" ”

Without waiting for Wei Qingqing to finish speaking, Granny Xi's wrinkled old face turned pale instantly: "You...... Who are you? ”

"You just have to answer my questions." Wei Qingqing's tone was a little colder, and Granny Xi looked at the broken silver in her hand again, barely stood firm against the wall, thought about it again, and then said, "You give me two taels of silver, otherwise I won't say anything about death." I won't live long anyway. ”

"You answer honestly, I'll give you three taels."

"Good!" Granny Xi seemed to have made a great determination, looked at Wei Qingqing, and said what happened back then.

Out of the alley. Wei Qingqing's mood was a little more relaxed, she thought that Mrs. Zhang had taught her countless times with 'women's morality', she felt funny, she still remembered that Rong Ruizhang liked her at the beginning, she could feel it, but it was a pity that later, she also stood in the same camp as Mrs. Zhang, especially after Mrs. Zhang took the so-called archway of chastity.

"Don't fight, don't fight!"

Wei Qingqing was walking back happily when she heard a faint sound begging for mercy from the alley in front of her.

Xiaobai immediately shrunk his neck nervously, and Lan Zhi also said nervously: "Where did the ruffians and hooligans come from to bully people, Miss, let's stay out of the way first, after all, you are a weak woman......"

Is it weak? Lan Zhi is a little weak-hearted, Miss seems to be delicate, but she is much more powerful than ordinary girls, and now that Miss knows her identity, she doesn't have to hide and hide her skills.

"Do you know who did it?" Of course, Wei Qingqing will not rush forward rashly, she is not a big traitor, but she is not a saint either.

Xiao Bai quickly poked his neck to take a look and recognized it: "It seems to be the thug of Chongyang Tower, I have seen it before." The one who was beaten was like ......"

"Is that him?" Wei Qingqing recognized the people on the ground, and said in her heart that God really treats her well, she just thought that there was no one available in her hand, so God sent someone here.

Wei Qingqing looked at Lan Zhi, who was still standing quietly beside him but was ready to go, and knew that Rong Che would not really just send a timid and thin girl to his side, and sighed lightly in his heart, Wei Qingqing pointed to the eaves of an octagonal building in front of him, and asked Lan Zhi: "You might jump up?" ”

Lan Zhi glanced at it and nodded. But for Wei Qingqing's keenness, I admire it more and more in my heart.

"That's good."

Wei Qingqing glanced at the drunken man who was being kicked and beaten on the ground, whispered a few words to Lan Zhi, and after she jumped onto the eaves, she took Xiaobai and quietly hid in the alley on the side and waited with peace of mind.

No matter what, she must have this person in her pocket!
