Chapter 4: Burying the Mother

"The slave is the red moon." Hongyue looked at the beautiful Su Xiaran in front of her, and felt relieved for some reason.

"Red Moon, let me ask you, why weren't you there when my mother died?" Su Xiaran asked in a stern tone.

"Second Miss, this morning the eldest lady's maid asked me to go outside to buy some medicinal materials and come back to replenish the second aunt's body, at that time the second aunt was very sick, I thought the eldest lady was kind, so I took the silver and went to the pharmacy to buy medicinal materials, who knew that I would see it as soon as I came back... I saw the second aunt lying in a pool of blood, so I buried the second aunt. Red Moon choked up as she spoke. Only the second aunt in this house is good to me, and the second aunt is a good person. ”

"Red Moon, don't cry, get up, you follow me in the future, I am your lord and the only person you can trust, you know?"

"Second Miss." Hongyue looked at Su Xiaran in front of her and nodded firmly.

The bamboo forest in the back mountain swayed slightly with the wind, and the bamboo leaves made a rustling sound next to each other, echoing throughout the Wuxiyuan.

In the early morning of February, it was a little cold in the house, Su Xiaran was wearing a thin white dress, and when she was about to go to Fenghua Courtyard, she saw Hongyue running into the house in a panic.

"Red Moon, what's wrong?" Intuition told Su Xiaran that something was wrong.

Hongyue saw that Su Xiaran had just gotten up, and began to chatter again: "Ouch, my eldest miss, why did you get up?" ”

Su Xiaran shrugged, she didn't sleep all night last night, and she squinted when it was almost dawn, but it made her discover something interesting.

"Red Moon, what are you doing in a panic?"

Hongyue was asked by Su Xiaran before she remembered to get down to business. "Miss, big lady, she's here."

The corners of Su Xiaran's mouth curved, and he said softly: "Come uninvited, ask for hardship." ”

As soon as the words fell, Su Xiayan's delicate sweet voice came from the door: "You guys, go in and search." ”

Several housekeepers entered in response to the call, lifted their sleeves, and looked like they were about to dismantle the house.

Su Xiaran squinted slightly, displeased, "What qualifications do you have to touch my things?" ”

When several family members heard this, they suddenly hesitated. If it was the second miss in the past, they would definitely dare to move, but now the second miss, they heard that Su Xiaran killed an old slave with her own hands yesterday, and they were terrified when they thought about it.

"I made them move, don't I even qualify?" Li Wenshu walked into the house with Su Xiayan, looked around, and covered her mouth and nose in disgust.

After paying attention again, he suddenly saw Su Xiaran's face, and there was a little more shock and anger in his eyes.

This cheap hoof, if she is allowed to go out to meet people with this look, her cigarettes will probably be laughed at, no, she can't let this happen.

Su Xiaran's gaze swept over the maids, and then looked at Li Wenshu's fair and soft face. "Greetings to my mother and sister. Mother is afraid that she has misunderstood? Ran'er is talking about the family, not the mother. ”

Li Wenshu showed a gentle smile and echoed Su Xiaran: "It's my mother who misunderstood, it's just that my mother's jasper hairpin is missing this morning, so I want people to look for it everywhere." ”

"Mother's jasper hairpin is missing, why did she come to Ran'er's house to search? Could it be that her mother suspected that Ran'er stole her mother's jasper hairpin? Su Xiaran put on an innocent look, making Li Wenshu forget what to say next.

"My sister misunderstood my mother, but my mother found other places in the house, and that's all there was to it, so I had to bring someone here to find it, and my sister should be more forgiving." Su Xiayan still looks weak and charming, which makes people have a desire to protect, but there is hostility hidden in her words.

"Have you looked for it in my sister's house?" Su Xiaran blinked her eyes, very innocent.

Su Xiayan was suddenly silent, her expression faintly revealed a little panic, but she looked even more pitiful, and she didn't know that she thought Su Xiaran had bullied her.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Wenshu hurriedly grabbed Su Xiayan and continued to say softly: "Yan'er's room is naturally found. ”

"In this case, then the mother can search if she wants, but don't break the things in the house when she searches, otherwise the mother will spend money to buy it for her daughter." Su Xiaran stopped fighting with them openly, and generously let them search the house.

"Of course, did you hear that?" Li Wenshu frowned and said to a few family members.

The family got Li Wenshu's instructions, nodded, and began to search the room, making clanging noises from time to time, which was particularly loud in the room.

After a while, the family searched everywhere, but they didn't find any jasper hairpins, "Mrs. Qiyu, I didn't find any jasper hairpins." ”

Li Wenshu obviously had a few green tendons on her forehead, and she didn't believe it, "How is it possible?" Is there anything else you haven't looked? ”

"Mother also heard it, Ran'er didn't steal her mother's things, but her mother still suspected that Ran'er had your hairpin in her house, to be honest, Ran'er was really a little chilled." Su Xiaran's disappointed tone reached Li Wenshu's ears, making Li Wenshu feel a chill.

Li Wenshu tried to control her emotions, clenched her fists, and was about to speak, when someone behind her took the first step.

"Wait." Chunxue, who was behind Li Wenshu, suddenly shouted, walked to Su Xia's back, and pulled off Su Xiaran's hairpin. "Big lady, the jasper hairpin has been found." Chunxue took the hairpin and presented it to Li Wenshu.

Li Wenshu's eyes lit up, and her heart was already happy. "This is indeed my hairpin, Ran'er, what else do you have to say now!"

The hairpin was pulled out, and Su Xiaran's long hair was draped down so casually. Su Xiaran looked at Chunxue unhappily, she had forgotten the hairpin on her head, but things would only get more interesting.

"Mother, are you sure this is your jasper hairpin?" Su Xiaran raised her eyebrows and asked.

Li Wenshu looked at the hairpin, this hairpin was indeed exactly the same as hers. "Yes."

"Mother, are you sure you see clearly? Don't need to look at it again? Su Xiaran asked again, and the emphatic tone made Li Wenshu suddenly hesitate.

Li Wenshu looked carefully at the hairpin in her hand and was suddenly stunned.

She knew very well that this was not her hairpin, although this one was very similar to hers, but it was not as delicate as hers, the technique was rough, and it was made at random at first glance, and her hairpin was rewarded by Concubine Li.

Li Wenshu's face darkened, and she said in a deep voice: "This... It's not my hairpin. ”

Su Xiayan picked up the hairpin in surprise and looked at it, and also found something strange. "How is this possible! Even if it's not a jasper hairpin, how can your hairpin be the same as your mother's? ”

Su Xiaran put away the smile on her face and said coldly: "It was given to me by my father, and my father said that my mother gave me her jasper hairpin, I thought it was true, but it turned out to be a lie." ”
