Chapter 22: Surveillance

Deep in the Lee Mansion

Second housekeeper Li arrived in front of someone: "Master, in the end, let this daughter of the outer room enter the Li Mansion, what are we going to do later?" ”

"If you enter, you will enter, and you will monitor it first, and as for the follow-up, someone will deal with it."

Li Ronghua didn't know what happened in the depths of the Li Mansion, but after finishing dinner, he followed Qiao'er back to the Red Mansion.

By the time we arrived at the Red Mansion, the Red Mansion had already been arranged.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Qiao'er and Aunt Chen arranged her and her younger brother respectively, not only that, she was arranged to live on the highest third floor, but her younger brother was arranged on the first floor, and as for the second floor, she lived in the nurse who was sent to feed her younger brother.

Happily, Chen's mother continued to take care of her younger brother, and even the nurse was temporarily on the side and did not live in the same room with her younger brother.

In addition, Li also specially arranged a special maid for her.

"Qiu'er, in the future, you will follow and serve Miss Nine, Madame has given you grace, mentioned your position, and asked you to serve Miss, you should know what to do, if you are like Lindong, leave your master, leave casually, and be careful about your skin." Qiao'er said coldly to a little maid who looked twelve or thirteen years old: "You should know the result of Lindong." ”

The little maid hurriedly nodded in fright: "Qiu'er knows that Qiu'er must follow Miss well and never leave Miss." ”

Li Ronghua's eyes flashed slightly, and he still looked well-behaved.

After Qiao'er finished instructing Qiu'er, she looked at Li Ronghua: "Miss Jiu, this will be in a hurry, I can only match you with a maid for a while, originally Mrs. pondered that I would go to Renyazi tomorrow to buy you a few maids, but there are rules for entering the mansion, and there are fixed times, so you can only wait for you to go back to Aunt Chen, and when the new person enters the mansion, I will give you all the maids to serve at that time." ”

Although the Li Mansion is a little defeated, it has been brilliant in the end, and it still follows the habit of four young ladies and maids in the past, of course, if it is a concubine, it will be matched with eight.

If there is only one maid to serve, it will be shabby, you know, the big maid around the ladies also has a little maid.

Li Ronghua thanked him well-behaved.

"If Miss Nine doesn't have any other instructions, Qiao'er will retire first and go to see the situation of Mother Chen and the Fifth Young Master arranged by Aunt Chen." Qiao'er spoke to Li Ronghua.

"Sister Qiao'er......" Just as Qiao'er was about to leave, Li Ronghua said timidly: "I...... I also want to go and see Chen's mother and brother. ”

Qiao'er was noncommittal: "It's late now, Miss Nine, you should also rest, tomorrow morning, you will go with Aunt Chen to ask Mrs. for peace." ”

Li Ronghua saw Qiao'er refuse, and finally nodded weakly.

Qiao'er left satisfied, but as soon as Qiao'er left, Li Ronghua opened the door and walked out.

"Miss Nine, where are you going?" Qiu'er was startled and hurriedly spoke.

Li Ronghua was standing: "I'...... I miss Chen's mother and brother. ”

"Miss Qiao'er has already said that you have to get up early tomorrow morning." Qiu'er quickly spoke: "You can rest." ”

Li Ronghua shook his head, turned around and ran out, and walked to the first floor, where Aunt Chen arranged Chen's mother and younger brother on the first floor.

Qiu'er hurriedly followed, but couldn't catch up with Li Ronghua.

Pedaling, Li Ronghua walked quickly to the first floor, pushed open the door of the main house on the first floor, and saw Chen's mother carefully resting her brother on the bed.

Li Ronghua's movements were hurriedly reduced.

Qiu'er caught up and was about to say something, but was swept away by Li Ronghua's cold gaze.

Qiu'er couldn't help but be shocked, and was so frightened that she forgot to call Li Ronghua, this, is this still the well-behaved Miss Nine who behaved before? No, she must have been dazzled, how could a child have such a threatening gaze.

But Li Ronghua had already trotted to Chen's mother.

When Chen's mother saw Li Ronghua, her face was overjoyed, and she hurriedly stood up: "Miss, why are you here." ”

Li Ronghua hugged Chen's mother: "I miss Chen's mother, so I came." ”

Chen's mother tightened her heart and hugged Li Ronghua fiercely: "Isn't this already living upstairs and downstairs, and they are all together?" ”

Li Ronghua stuffed himself in Chen's mother's clothes, smelling a clean and familiar smell: "Then I miss Chen's mother too." ”

Qiu'er looked at this scene and breathed a sigh of relief, even more sure that she was dazzled just now, this is clearly still a milky child, where can she have such sharp eyes.

Li Ronghua looked up at Chen's mother and whispered, "Qiu'er was sent by my mother to spy on me. ”

Although Chen's mother didn't hear Li Ronghua's words clearly, she saw Li Ronghua's mouth shape clearly, and her heart couldn't help but tighten slightly.

"Mother Chen, can I sleep with you and my brother at night?" Li Ronghua said coquettishly: "In the past, Hua'er slept with Chen's mother, and Hua'er was afraid of ......."

When Qiu'er heard this, she couldn't help laughing, sure enough, she was a child, and she was still sleeping with people, so when she thought about it, she relaxed: "Miss Jiu, you don't have to be afraid, I will keep you to sleep." ”

"I don't want you, I just want Mother Chen." Li Ronghua spoke quickly, and as he spoke, tears seemed to be in the corners of his eyes.

Qiu'er couldn't help but hesitate: "But Miss Qiao'er has instructed that I must follow you step by step." ”

Mother Chen frowned, she already believed what Li Ronghua said at this moment, and only listened to what Qiu'er said, and it was obviously surveillance, and she was even more worried because of this.

Li couldn't have found out that the arson had something to do with Li Ronghua, right?

Thinking so, Mother Chen spoke: "I'm afraid I'm not used to the little lady leaving me, otherwise, tonight, Qiu'er, you will also live here, so it won't be considered a disobedience to Madame's order." ”

Qiu'er thought about it and finally nodded.

Li Ronghua cheered happily, but only when he made a sound, he immediately covered his mouth, looked at his younger brother on the bed carefully, and saw that his younger brother was not awake, so he let out a sigh.

Looking at Li Ronghua like this, Qiu'er's face was even more relaxed, and she was really still a child, and she couldn't even hide her emotions.

"But Qiu'er, there are not enough bedding to sleep on at night here, I'm afraid I have to trouble you to go upstairs to get it." Chen's mother looked at Qiu'er and spoke.

Qiu'er hesitated slightly, but finally nodded and went to get something.

As soon as Qiu'er left, Chen's mother wanted to speak, but was stopped by Li Ronghua.

Chen's mother was puzzled, so she saw Li Ronghua pointing to the door, Chen's mother slowly approached the door, and saw a figure outside the door.

"Mother Chen, I want to listen to you sing nursery rhymes and sleep at night." Li Ronghua coquettishly spoke.

Chen's mother walked back cautiously: "This will make my brother noisy." ”

"Mother Chen really doesn't like Hua'er when she has a younger brother......"

When Qiu'er heard these words, she couldn't help but shake her head and leave.

After confirming Qiu'er's departure, Chen's mother couldn't help but ask: "It stands to reason that you are just a child, why did Madame send someone to spy on you?" ”

Li Ronghua reined in his thoughts: "It's about a coincidence that tonight's incident happened. ”

Mother Chen's heart tightened when she heard this: "Could it be that they have found something?" ”

If it is known that the little lady will set fire to the Li Mansion as soon as she comes, I am afraid that the matter will be big.

"No, if that were the case, no one would have been sent to take care of us." Li Ronghua said slightly: "I estimate that there are only two points, one is to suspect that this matter was tossed out by the eldest lady for us, and the other is to monitor me to see what I am like, of course, if I can find something more, it would be better." ”

As for wanting to isolate her and her younger brother so as to better control their affairs, Li Ronghua didn't tell Chen's mother, and it was not good to let Chen's mother know about some things.

"Then we'll have to be careful." Mother Chen breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the eldest lady had been talking to them before, and couldn't help but speak: "The eldest lady is really good, you must repay the eldest lady in the future, we must remember our kindness." ”

Li Ronghua was slightly stunned, she didn't expect to hear such a sentence, and for some reason there was a sense of astringency in her heart, no one had ever told her about this in her previous life.

She will, remember grace, she really hasn't tried, you must remember grace when you are a man, it turns out that you have to remember grace when you are a man.

Mother Chen saw that the corners of Li Ronghua's eyes were slightly red, and she couldn't help but speak: "Sister Hua, what's wrong with you?" ”

Li Ronghua shook his head: "It's nothing, I just think it's good that Mother Chen is here." ”

Chen's mother couldn't help laughing: "Chen's mother will always be there." ”

"Hmm." Li Ronghua nodded, she will let this life go on forever.

"Alas, it's a pity that we are like this, and I don't know if we will have a chance to repay the eldest lady in the future." As soon as Chen's mother finished speaking, she couldn't help but think of this.

Li Ronghua laughed: "Of course there is, Mother Chen, don't think about it." ”

After all, the eldest lady's second son is so not smart, she helped teach, and she also took a vivid lesson, so she will be smarter in the future.

Li Chengqing, who was still in a state of confusion, couldn't help but sneez, who was talking to him, God, it wouldn't be the ninth cousin, right......

didn't want Chen's mother to continue to worry about arson, so Li Ronghua changed the topic: "Chen's mother, I went out today to meet Dr. Qu." ”

"What!" Chen's mother was surprised: "But I met it in the house in the twine alley?" ”

"Don't worry, no one found out that Dr. Qu came to us on purpose." Li Ronghua smiled and spoke.

Chen's mother breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Dr. Qu had left before to report to the official about Liu's murder and dystocia, and couldn't help asking: "Even so, I'm afraid other places will find out the problem, right?" ”

Li Ronghua shook his head: "I have already told Dr. Qu about our return to Li's mansion, and said that Mother Chen, you hope that he will secretly investigate Yang's maternity and don't continue to report to the official." ”

Chen's mother let out a sigh of relief: "You ghost elf, you will borrow your name." ”

"Speaking of myself, Dr. Qu will definitely not listen to or believe it, then the beginning is in vain." Li Ronghua is coquettish.

Mother Chen was amused, but she said seriously: "Doctor Qu is a good person, he will definitely take care of you, even if you don't say it, Doctor Qu should secretly investigate this matter, after all, he is a man's family, and he is involved in the outer room of the Li Mansion...... "In the end, it will have an impact on Miss's reputation, and it will also affect Miss Dao and the young master, Doctor Qu will not let such a thing happen."

Li Ronghua saw that Chen's mother didn't continue, so he couldn't help but speak: "Chen's mother, is Dr. Qu my mother's pro-plum sweetheart?" ”

"What nonsense!" Chen's mother's face sank instantly.

"Mother Chen, don't be angry, I worshipped Dr. Qu as a master, and I knew that the master was my mother's senior brother." Li Ronghua spoke to Chen's mother.

Chen's mother was stunned: "Why did Dr. Qu mention this to you." ”

"I asked smartly." Li Ronghua spoke.

"Don't say anything like that in the future." Chen's mother interrupted, obviously reluctant to mention the matter.

Li Ronghua couldn't help but be more curious about the past, curious about what kind of situation could make a senior brother guard his junior sister's child for a lifetime, and he couldn't help but like this, and finally died before he could protect his junior sister's daughter.
