Although the noon sun was warm, the water was very cold, and the two girls kept shivering and sneezing after being rescued.

The news of the two girls falling into the water in the Moon Pavilion spread far and wide, especially the Rongfang Hall. Originally, Wan Tang had a lonely and arrogant personality, and he didn't walk around with them on weekdays, so Wan Tang was a mysterious existence for them; And Zhuo Xi can be regarded as a legendary figure, and both of them are under the gate of Fushan Courtyard, and someone has long secretly compared the two. Now that something happened to the Moon Pavilion, everyone naturally focused their attention on the two girls.

Regarding this fall into the water, some say that Wan Tang and Zhuo Xi have always been incompatible, and the two often quarrel, and they accused each other by the lotus pond that day, and then they both fell into the water; Some people also said that Wantang was jealous of Zhuo Xi's talent and deliberately pushed Zhuo Xi into the water, but he was afraid that he would not be able to explain, so he jumped into the water himself; Some people also say that Zhuo Xi has a perverse personality and loves to be public, and she sings everywhere when she makes a small song, Wan Tang taught her a few words, but Zhuo Xi couldn't stand it and jumped into the lotus pond, Wan Tang fell into the water to save her... In short, all kinds of statements were all over the place, and for a while, Wan Tang and Zhuo Xi became the focus of everyone's attention.

When the six girls who were practicing the fish dance heard about it, they tried their best to visit Zhuo Xi, but they couldn't knock on the door of the Moon Pavilion. Occasionally, there are people who come out of it, and they just bow their heads and hurry, no matter what others ask, they just shake their heads and don't say a word. What's even more strange is that even Lan Yang went to visit and was closed. Now the content of the rumors is richer, and the more it spreads away from the spectrum, the farther it spreads...

On the afternoon of the second day after the two girls fell into the water, a group of people came to the Moon Pavilion. The leader was a graceful and dignified woman, about forty years old, dressed in a gorgeous rose-red peony dress, with a round face and delicate makeup, her eyes were sharp and deep, and her proud demeanor actually had a kingly demeanor. A few maids in the back held gift boxes in their hands, and followed closely behind the woman.

The group walked towards Wan Tang's bedroom unhindered, and all the people they met along the way bowed their heads and saluted.

The woman came to Wan Tang's bedroom, and when the maids saw it, they hurriedly knelt down and saluted, but the woman waved to stop her. Seeing that Wan Tang was resting with her eyes closed, the woman walked over lightly and sat on the edge of the bed, thinking about the elegant and agile woman in the past, and then looking at Wan Tang's pale and haggard appearance now, she couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, and sighed lightly and said: "Alas, my daughter, why did you become like this?" ”

Wan Tang heard the voice, slowly opened his eyes, and after seeing the person sitting next to the bed, he struggled to get up, and the woman hurriedly held her down and said, "Daughter doesn't have to get up, lie down well!" ”

"Mother......" Wan Tang's teary eyes flashed, his lips trembled and he shouted, and his appearance was even more pitiful.

The woman caressed Wan Tang's hair lovingly, and said softly: "My poor daughter, why are you so careless, tell your mother if you are hurt somewhere?" What's uncomfortable right now? ”

Wan Tang shook his head and said, "Mother, I'm fine, but I always feel ......cold," he said, and couldn't help but shiver again.

The woman hurriedly folded the quilt for Wan Tang, turned her head and said sternly to everyone, "How do you serve?" You can also serve the girl into the water! Have you had enough of the Moon Pavilion? ”

A group of maids were so frightened that they fell to the ground with a thud, and Eru trembled and said: "Mrs. Fengqi spared her life, it was the slave and maid who were negligent, the slave and maid should die, the slave and maid should die!" ”

"Hmph, damn it!" Mrs. Fengqi snorted coldly and said, "You are Wan'er's attendant, the protector is not good, and the care is not good, you better go back to Rongfang Hall and let Aunt Meng arrange something for you to do again!" ”

Eru's face turned pale with fright, she knew the fate of being sent back, and she was busy kowtowing and begging for mercy: "Mrs. Fengqi spares her life, the slave doesn't dare, she will definitely take care of the girl in the future!" ”

"Later? You don't have anything to do with it anymore! Mrs. Fengqi said coldly.

"Mother!" Wan Tang shouted weakly, "My daughter is used to using her, so let's leave her." ”

Seeing Wan Tang pleading, Mrs. Fengqi hurriedly held her slender hand and said gently: "Okay, okay, if you want to stay, keep it, but you have to let Aunt Niruo train and discipline well, so as not to make mistakes in the future!" ”

Wan Tang nodded lightly and said, "Thank you, mother!" Eru on the ground hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you Mrs. Fengqi for your kindness, thank you Miss Wantang!" ”

Mrs. Fengqi shouted: "Thank you so much, girl, if there is any trouble in the future, I will not be so lucky!" Alright, you all go outside the door and wait. ”

After sending away these annoying subordinates, Mrs. Fengqi talked to Wan Tang for a while, explaining that she wanted to recuperate, and if she had any needs, just ask.

Mrs. Fengqi walked out of the room, looked at the people walking on thin ice outside the door, and said to Eru, "Where is the woman who fell into the water with Wan'er now?" ”

"In the lower courtyard of the West Wing." Eru replied respectfully, and at the same time, a trace of uneasiness spread in her heart, could Mrs. Fengqi find Miss Zhuo Xi to vent her anger on Miss Wantang?

At this moment, Yu Yan was by Zhuo Xi's side. Seeing that Yu Yan had just improved, and that she was still walking steadily, Zhuo Xi kept persuading her to go back to rest. But Yu Yan said that Zhuo Xi was still having a fever, so she was willing to leave, and she said that she would stay and take care of her.

Yu Yan wiped Zhuo Xi's face with a wet towel, then put the towel on her forehead, looked at her flushed cheeks, and said distressedly: "Girl, your fever has not gone away, I'll go find someone to invite you to Langzhong!" ”

"No, it's just a cold, don't trouble Eru anymore, just stand up and pass." Zhuo Xi took Yu Yan's hand and said.

Yu Yan sighed lightly and said sadly: "Girl, you stayed for me, but you encountered such a thing, but I can't help you now..."

"Aren't you with me? Don't be stupid! Zhuo Xi smiled hard and comforted her.

As he was talking, he heard footsteps outside the door, and both of them looked towards the door.

I saw a noble woman dressed gorgeously and with a dignified complexion walking over under the leadership of Eru.

"Is this...?" Yu Yan was surprised, how could there be such a noble lady here?

Zhuo Xi's eyes flashed slightly, and he probably guessed the identity of the visitor from his demeanor and clothing.

After Mrs. Fengqi entered the door, she glanced at the beautiful woman lying on the bed, and without waiting for Eru to open her mouth, she asked directly: "You are the woman who fell into the water with Wan'er?" ”

Hearing this, Zhuo Xi was even more sure of the identity of the person who came.

Zhuo Xi took off the towel on his forehead, stood up with difficulty and saluted Mrs. Fengqi: "Little girl Zhuo Xi, I have seen Mrs. Fengqi!" ”

Mrs. Fengqi was a little surprised and asked, "Do you recognize me?" ”

Zhuo Xi said lightly: "Guanyi knows your position, you are beautifully dressed and majestic, but you are domineering in a few words, and you call Wantang girl Wan'er, you must be the heroine of Ninglu Hall, and Wantang girl's stepmother, Mrs. Fengqi, is undoubted!" ”

Mrs. Fengqi looked Zhuo Xi up and down for a while, and said in amazement: "It is rumored that you are very smart and talented, it seems that this is true!" But why are you dressed in the clothes of a subordinate? ”

These words frightened Eru, without Wantang's consent, Eru didn't dare to let Zhuo Xi change back into her clothes, so Zhuo Xi is still wearing the clothes of the miscellaneous servants' courtyard now. But now that she has been bumped into by Mrs. Fengqi, if she is held accountable, it is estimated that she will have to carry the black pot again!

"It was this shirt before it fell into the water yesterday, and it hasn't been changed yet." Zhuo Xi didn't answer Mrs. Fengqi's question directly, but just told her a fact, as for the reason, let her guess it herself.

Mrs. Fengqi stared at Zhuo Xi with sharp eyes, wanting to see through this calm woman.

"Why did you fall into the water yesterday?" After examining it for a moment, Madam Fengqi asked.

"The little girl accidentally fell into the water by the pool, and the Wantang girl fell into the water because she wanted to save me." Zhuo Xi knew what Madame Fengqi wanted to hear.

Wan Tang is the righteous daughter of Mrs. Fengqi, no matter from which point of view, she will defend Wan Tang, and she will definitely not make decisions for herself. Since you asked yourself why, you must hope that you don't say anything unfavorable to Wan Tang. Zhuo Xi suddenly felt a little sad, without the protection of his parents, he had to say something against his will to protect himself.

Sure enough, Mrs. Fengqi nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Since you are a member of Fushan Courtyard, you should go back to Fushan Courtyard to raise it, it is best to recuperate in peace, and it is better to forget about the things here." The implication is to keep your mouth shut and don't talk nonsense about what's happening here.

Of course, Zhuo Xi understood, she saluted Mrs. Fengqi again, and said, "Thank you Madame for your kindness!" ”

Mrs. Fengqi nodded, glanced at Yu Yan, who was still stunned next to her, and asked, "Who are you?" Why? "On weekdays, there are only some maids in Wantang's courtyard, except for Lanyang, there are almost no other girls, and Yu Yan's dress is obviously not a maid, which inevitably makes Mrs. Fengqi puzzled.

Yu Yan hurriedly limped to Mrs. Fengqi and saluted: "Little girl Yu Yan, I was in the Fiber Dance Workshop before, I came here to practice dancing two days ago, and I accidentally fell at the door and injured myself. ”

It's a fall and a fall into the water, this Moon Pavilion is really not peaceful. Mrs. Fengqi looked at Yu Yan's leg and said, "Since you are injured, take care of it, Wan'er also needs to recuperate in the past few days, you better go back to the Fiber Dance Workshop, and go back and let Aunt Meng send someone to take care of you." ”

Yu Yan was overjoyed in her heart, she could finally leave here, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Fengqi!" ”

Mrs. Fengqi tilted her head slightly and said to a handsome woman standing behind her: "Ni Ruo, I will go and inform Fushan Courtyard and Xian Dance Workshop later, and let them arrange for someone to pick up their girl back." ”

"Yes!" Aunt Niruo responded, and then whispered a few words to the little maid behind her, and the little maid ran away.

Seeing off Mrs. Fengqi, Yu Yan grabbed Zhuo Xi's hand tightly and said happily: "Girl, we can finally leave here!" ”

Zhuo Xi smiled and said to her: "Yes, don't move around much after you go back, and pay attention to rest." Also, don't tell anyone about things here, or it won't be good for you! ”

"I understand!" Yu Yan nodded clearly.
