In the heavy snow, Xiaoya held an umbrella and walked to Fuyuan Hall with Fang Hanniang.

Xiaoya didn't dare to mention what happened in the side courtyard of the second room, so she had to divert the topic in another direction: "...... Girl, you see it's freezing this day, but be careful, don't freeze. ”

Fang Hanniang nodded silently.

The atmosphere was a little silent, and Xiaoya didn't dare to speak anymore. A little annoyance arose in her heart. I'm not as steady and talkative as Sister Qiuzhu, and when I'm with the girl, in addition to being reckless, I'm still reckless. When I saw Sister Qiuzhu and the girl together, the two often talked and laughed, and they were very envious of these little maids.

Xiao Ya sighed deeply in her heart, speaking of which, the illegitimate son of Second Master Ruan can barely be regarded as the young master of the house, and this is the first time that the house has encountered a child who died young...... It's no wonder that everyone looks nervous.

The two of them returned to the Fuhui Hall in silence, and in the Fuhui Hall, Lu Ying was pulling a housekeeper and accompanying the old lady of Pingguo to fight the landlord.

As soon as the old lady looked up, she saw Fang Hanniang coming in wrapped in a cloak, she said "oops", with a hint of reproach: "Nannan, come here, you said that on such a snowy day, you still go out to visit the garden, what is there to see in the snowy garden?" Come over and make a fire. ”

Visiting the garden is the reason why the green warbler found Fang Hanniang.

The old lady of Fang Cai Pingguo was worried about Fang Hanniang, and asked Lu Ying to take out a few pieces of skin from the palace from the cage, and held them for Fang Hanniang to look at, and asked her to pick a piece she liked, and it was good to make a cloak and scarf.

The green warbler couldn't, so she had to casually say, "The girl went to visit the snow garden, not in the room", so as not to worry about the old lady.

Fang Hanniang is a smart person, hearing the old lady say that she "walks in the garden" for no reason, and saw the green warbler giving her a look on the side, she understood and said with a smile: "...... The outside is covered in silver, and it does have a bit of style. As he spoke, he took off his cloak and handed it to the maid beside him.

The housekeeper left the table with great eyesight, gave the handful of cards in her hand to Fang Hanniang, and said with a smile: "Girl, don't dislike the slave maid's bad hand, the slave maid is going to run away." ”

The old lady of Pingguo laughed and said: "It's okay, our cousin is rich, and if she loses, she will definitely be counted!" ”

It is true that this card is not good, Fang Hanniang on the steward of the mother's card, the mouth of the lotus, while teasing the old lady with words, while quietly to the old lady put a few cards, so that the old lady finally refreshed off the "king bomb" and won the card.

The old lady of Pingguo was happy, and played cards with Fang Hanniang all morning, as if she had forgotten about yesterday's incident.

At noon, Fang Hanniang had lunch at the old lady's place before returning to her side courtyard.

Fang Hanniang wore a very light dress today, without a hairpin ring, she cleaned her face, and lay down after a while.

Who knows that not long after, before the person fell asleep, he heard a soft knock on the door.

The little maid on duty glanced at Fang Hanniang nervously, saw that Fang Hanniang had not slept yet, and bowed slightly to her, so she became bold and went to open the door.

You must know that when she is on duty, if someone disturbs the master's sleep without long eyesight, it is impossible to say that they on duty will also eat and hang up.

The little maid muttered in her heart that she was fortunate that the girl she was with was very kind, and she opened the door unhappily.

As a result, standing outside the door was the big girl Qiuzhu.

The unhappy look on the little girl's face was suddenly frightened and took it back, and she stammered with some sincere fear: "Yes, it's Sister Qiuzhu, you have something to do with the girl?" ”

Qiu Zhu looked nervous and said in a low voice, "Did the girl sleep?" ”

Before the little maid could answer, Fang Hanniang's voice in the room had already come out: "Sister Qiuzhu?" Come in, I haven't slept yet. ”

Qiu Zhu answered "yes", put the little maid outside the door, and entered the house with bated breath.

The blood stains left by Qiuzhu's kowtow in the morning, because the weather has been too cold recently, after applying the plaster, she wrapped a layer of gauze to keep warm, so it looks like she is wearing filial piety to someone.

Qiu Zhu entered the back room, and before Fang Hanniang could ask, she knelt down for Fang Hanniang again.

Fang Hanniang was also taken aback when she saw Qiuzhu's battle, and hurriedly said: "Sister Qiuzhu can just talk if she has something, don't knock again." ”

Qiu Zhu raised her head, two lines of tears flowed from her eyes, she endured the shame in her heart, and said ashamedly: "Girl...... The slave really didn't want to act like this, but there was really no way out, so she had to show this face in front of the girl......"

Fang Hanniang got up from the bed, took two steps forward to help Qiu Zhu up, and she looked at Qiu Zhu sincerely: "Sister Qiu Zhu, where is this." From the moment I entered the Pingguo Mansion, it was Sister Qiuzhu who took care of me with all her heart, even if I sometimes messed around, Sister Qiuzhu never blamed me for those things, and she kept her secret for me, and I couldn't be more grateful. Sister Qiuzhu has something to say, but if I can help, I will definitely not refuse. ”

Fang Hanniang's earnest words made Qiuzhu even more tears.

She had always known that the cousin she was with was a very good heart......

Qiu Zhu wiped away her tears, and didn't dare to kneel anymore, only hung her head, put on a face, and said to Fang Hanniang: "Girl, the slave maid told you about the Bailing family before...... I'm afraid I'm going to have to trouble the girl today. ”

Fang Hanniang was taken aback: "Really all kicked out?" ”

Qiu Zhu held back tears and nodded: "Actually, it's actually good." The slave maid originally thought that Bailing would inevitably suffer from flesh and skin this time...... Who would have thought that although the second master was very angry with Bailing that she fell asleep at night, he didn't beat and scolded her, but just drove their family out of the house according to the rules......"

Fang Hanniang couldn't help but sigh when she thought of Second Master Ruan, who looked old and tired.

Qiu Zhu saw Fang Hanniang sigh suddenly, and looked at Fang Hanniang worriedly: "Girl, is there anything difficult about it...... If there is anything difficult about it, it should be treated as if the slave had not mentioned it. She bit her lower lip, "The slave maid still has some savings, so I can help their family live for the time being......"

Fang Hanniang shook her head and thought for a while: "Is Bailing still there?" ”

Qiu Zhu didn't know why Fang Hanniang asked about this, she nodded: "It's still there." The government gave them a day to move out......"

Thinking of Bailing's family, one of the two men is crippled, and the other has a brain problem, in this cold weather, I don't know if they can survive......

Thinking of this, Qiu Zhu couldn't help but cry and was about to fall.

Fang Hanniang thought for a while: "In this way, you call Bailing." I asked her a few words before I made arrangements. ”

Qiu Zhu's originally desperate eyes lit up suddenly, she knew that the meaning of Fang Hanniang's words was to arrange what happened after Bailing left the house!

Qiu Zhu held back the surging tears, and couldn't wait to kowtow to Fang Hanniang a few more times.

However, she also knew that Fang Hanniang didn't like them kowtowing at every turn like this, so she had to suck her nose hard, wipe her face vigorously, and change her tone to a brisk tone: "The girl is waiting in the house, and the slave will call Bailing over." ”

Fang Hanniang nodded.

After a short time, Qiu Zhu led Bailing over.

Bai Ling was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, with a thin face, a pointed small chin, and a somewhat overworked look.

Her eyes were so red and swollen, her lips were white, and when she entered the back room, she knelt down directly for Fang Hanniang.

Fang Hanniang glanced at Qiu Zhu helplessly.

Qiu Zhu understood, held back her tears and helped Bai Ling up, and comforted: "Sister Bai Ling, our girl is very good-hearted, and she doesn't like to see others kneel down at every turn, just get up and talk back." ”

"Yes......" Bai Ling's body was still trembling slightly, and she held the wrist that Qiu Zhu was holding her tightly with her backhand, as if this would give her a little strength.

Fang Hanniang couldn't help but tremble when she saw Bai Ling's legs, thinking that when she went to the side courtyard of the second room before, she had always seen Bai Ling kneeling there, thinking that she had been kneeling for a long time, and her knees were a little unbearable.

She gestured to her chair, "Sit down and talk." ”

Bai Ling trembled, and quickly glanced up at Fang Hanniang in disbelief, and then looked at Qiu Zhu, as if asking Qiu Zhu to verify whether what Fang Han Niang said was true or false.

Qiu Zhu said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, our girl is really nice, you sit well, whatever the girl asks you, you will reply." ”

Bai Ling nodded heavily, his legs trembling, and sat down in his chair.

At this time, she plucked up her courage and looked at Fang Hanniang: "I don't know, I don't know what the girl wants to ask the slave?" ”

Fang Hanniang looked at Bai Ling: "Do you usually fall asleep when you are on duty at night?" ”

As soon as he asked these questions, larks' tears came out.

She remembered that no matter how Fang Cai explained to Second Master Ruan, Second Master Ruan waved his hand and didn't want to listen to her, and remembered that Kong gritted his teeth at her, hating her and shouting and killing......

Bai Ling burst into tears and defended himself a little anxiously: "Girl, the slave is really, really not the kind of person who slacks off...... On weekdays, I was on duty all night, and I didn't sleep all night waiting for my master's orders......"

Fang Hanniang paused, and then asked, "Then, why did you fall asleep last night?" …… And that Ruan Xiong, you all fell asleep together, which is too strange. ”

Bai Ling wiped his tears with his sleeve and shook his head: "The slave really doesn't know why. Girl, the slave and maid really don't excuse themselves, last night the slave and maid also told Ruan Xiong that he was afraid that the little boy would be very sick at night, and the slave and maid would not serve well, so he should always be ready to call the doctor...... Who knows...... Who knows......"

Bai Ling didn't want to think about it anymore, when they woke up and found that they had fallen asleep, they didn't want to think about the despair when they found Kong Chuhua on the bed and had lost his breath!

Fang Hanniang was thoughtful, and after a while, when Bai Ling calmed down, she continued to ask: "So, do you think there is anything different from your usual night last night?" ”
