Chapter 7 Being a thief has a weak heart

It snowed all night again, and the ground was so thick that it could not reach the surface of your feet.

Since the old lady Hua who was far away in her hometown ten days ago was taken home, Jiao Niang had to get up early every day to say goodbye, and she couldn't sleep lazy.

Shui Xiang served her to get up, and took green salt to wipe her teeth and rinse her mouth, last night Jiao Niang copied the scriptures very late, and this morning she got up groggy and had no energy, so she lazily leaned on the head of the bed and was served by her to freshen up.

Hua Jintang only has two brothers, and the younger brother Hua Jinye is sent to his hometown Qizhou Licheng as a guard. Mrs. Hua spends most of her time in Licheng every year, and only in December she will follow Hua Jinye back to Beijing to report back to live in a small place, and then return to Licheng after her birthday in early May.

Although Mrs. Hua lived for a short time every year, no one dared to slack off during this period, and because of her strange temper, everyone was trembling when she served, and even Ji Shi bowed her head in front of her, and did not dare to make any mistakes.

The people in the house also changed the law to please her, but they couldn't do it, and if they didn't please her, they would be reprimanded by her if they didn't go well.

Qing Huan knelt on the pedal and rubbed her arm for Jiao Niang, feeling distressed and complaining, "Other girls are all giving food to the old lady, sending gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, but the girl, you work hard to copy what Raush Zi scriptures, if the old lady doesn't like it, the girl is not thankless." ”

Jiao Niang smiled and said nothing, with the experience of her previous life, she naturally had some understanding of the old lady's preferences. Knowing that she had been happy with the Buddha all these years, he did what he liked and copied the scriptures for her, which was more pleasing to her than those real money.

I want to ask her why she tried her best to please the old lady, just because she was the only one in this house who could compete with the Ji family.

These days, every time she goes to Ji's place to ask for An, Ji's always mentions Brother An, intentionally or unintentionally, she knows that Ji's has already hit Brother An with his mind and is going to rob him.

At this time, she can still say that she is sad and sad because of the sudden death of her aunt, and she stays with Brother An to talk about comfort, but if Ji blows the wind in her father's ears, after a long time, her father will inevitably not agree.

coincided with the old lady's return home, which made Jiao Niang think that there was no better idea to raise Brother An by the old lady's side.

If she can get the favor of the old lady, and then persuade her to raise Brother An under her knees, even the Ji family will not dare to beak.

Jiao Niang knew that it was difficult to protect Brother An with her own strength, and she couldn't stay in the Hua family for the rest of her life, but this was the best arrangement for Brother An.

Shui Xiang helped Jiao Niang get up to make up, and heard someone outside from a long distance, "Is the girl up?"

"Mother Li is fine, why did your old man come over on a cold day? The girl just woke up, and Sister Qinghuan and Sister Shui Xiang are waiting inside. The little maid at the door whispered in a flattering voice.

"That's right, I'll go in and have a look. ”

"Mom, please. ”

"Mom, I'll set the curtain for you, be careful. ”

As a delicate nurse, she has a decent identity, and a few of the little maids in the courtyard are not competing with her.

The scarlet cotton felt was lifted, and a white cold air rushed in, and then quickly disappeared into the air.

Mother Li was wearing a set of dark purple placket Fushou double full-pattern jacket, with gold ornaments on her ears and hair, smiling and squinting, yawning to Jiao Niang, and walked straight over.

She waved at Shui Xiang and Qing Huan, stepped aside, picked up the golden hairpin on the table, bent the hairpin, and whispered to Jiao Niang: "Girl, I have a happy event here, you must be happy to hear it." The lord is going to marry you, and now he has selected several families, but he has not yet decided on them. ”

It has been more than ten days since Li's mother came back, and although Jiao Niang treated her as usual, she kept an eye on her.

Aunt Aunt's death, now there is no evidence related to her, if she rashly testifies, not only will she not admit it, but the people behind the scenes will also be shocked. When the time comes, kill people and kill her, and get rid of her, there will be no trace.

Only by secretly investigating and finding strong evidence may be able to bite out the murderer behind the scenes through her.

Jiao Niang looked at Mother Li in the mirror, the mirror softened the wrinkles on her face, and asked, "How do you know?"

Mother Li smiled: "I went to the eldest lady this morning and listened to it. After finishing speaking, he realized that he had lost his words and hurriedly lowered his eyes.

I went to Ji's early in the morning, and it seems that the relationship is really close.

Jiao Niang took down the golden hairpin, replaced it with a jasper eight-treasure hairpin, and said with a slight smile: "Mom has been in the house for more than ten years, what to listen to and what to say, you know better than me." In the future, don't say these things to others, make people laugh. ”

Li's mother was sneered, and Nuno said yes. She glanced at Jiao Niang, thinking to herself, although the girl was still the same as before, looking delicate, but looking at her smiling, why did she feel panicked inexplicably.

Jiao Niang stood up, stretched out her arms, Shui Xiang put on a frost-colored Shu brocade scattered fox fur for her, tied well, Jiao Niang said to Li's mother: "I remember that there is a cigarette yarn at the bottom of the pressure box in my aunt's house, you go to find it, and when spring comes, the bright paper on this window will be changed." ”

Mother Li immediately looked shocked, faintly pale, and replied: "The slave maid asked the little girls to find it." ”

"Where can the little girls find it, you are serving your aunt, and her things are the clearest, you can find them as soon as you look for them, and the little girls will be messed up. The lady stared at her closely.

She found that since Mother Li came back, she no longer dared to set foot in her aunt's house, and even walked a few steps quickly from the corridor to the front of the house, for fear that a wild beast would come out of the house and bite her.

Jiao Niang calculated in her heart, isn't this Mother Li afraid that her aunt will turn into a ghost and come back to her?

Seeing that Mother Li's face was even more embarrassed, she had to excuse herself.

Jiao Niang raised her eyebrows and said quietly: "Is Mother Li afraid of something?"

Mother Li shuddered, looking at Jiao Niang who couldn't speak.

Outside the house, I heard the sound of greetings, accompanied by the creaking sound of sheep boots stepping on the snow, the maid led a person wearing a pale pink feather satin cloak in, Jiao Niang looked sideways, and the eyes under the hood looked like the second aunt, it was the fourth girl in the house, Rou Niang.

The second aunt was originally Ji's dowry girl, Ji's married into the Hua family for a few years, only two daughters, Mei Niang and Wan Niang, and also had a son, but due to the lack of fetus, he died before he was a year old.

has no son, it has always been Ji's heart disease, so he raised the dowry girl to be an aunt. It's just that the second aunt didn't fight for her, and both children are daughters.

Rou Niang is the youngest daughter of the second aunt, and she also has a sister above her, named Liniang.

She is the same age as Jiao Niang, only two months older.

"Fifth sister, I'm here with you to greet my grandmother. Rou Niang walked over and took Jiao Niang's hand.

Unveiled the hood, the snail bun was lazily crooked on the right side, and the long hair scattered from the back of the ear to the front of the chest, weighing the pink clothes, blooming like peach blossoms.

Rou Niang people are as their name suggests, and the word "soft" deserves.

He speaks softly and softly, has a gentle and delicate temperament, and even walks as delicate as a willow, which is very delicate.

Jiao Niang looked at her, and couldn't help but praise her in her heart, if you talk about who is the best at acting in the Hua family, it must be the one in front of you. It's really hard for people to imagine that in the future, in order to marry the prince of Huaguo, even the life of my sister can be mutilated.
