Chi Tang was taken aback and nodded.

Mr. Lu is an extremely indifferent person, and he doesn't care much about most people and things, why did he suddenly ask about the maid next to her?

Lu Zijin said: "Someone in the capital is looking into your servant girl. ”

Chi Tang was even more surprised: "Who?" ”

The picture screen is served by her, and there are not many opportunities to go out, who will inquire about her?

"I don't know about this-" Lu Zijin shook his head and said, "It's a man, people didn't see it, I just heard it by chance, and I thought the name was quite familiar, and I only remembered it when I saw you today." ”

Chi Tang felt inexplicably uneasy: "What did that person inquire about?" ”

Lu Zijin still shook his head: "I didn't pay attention to it." ”

……

Back home, Chi Tang left the picture screen alone and asked, "Do you still have an uncle?" ”

Coming out of Mr. Lu, Chi Tang thought all the way, and could only think that it was the painting screen family who found it.

The painting screen was the first person around A-Niang, who came to the Tang family at the age of seven, and later came to the Chi family, and until now, it has been thirteen years.

Since it was bought outside, the origin must have been checked.

Huaping's surname is Feng, a native of Jingcheng County, his parents died, and he was sold by his uncle.

Although I don't know why I sold her back then, if I really found her, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing, just like Xia Hui, no matter what, he has an extra brother who is not bad.

However, as soon as the painting screen heard her words, his face changed: "Yes...... At that time, there was also an aunt and two cousins...... What's wrong with them? ”

When he finally asked a rhetorical question, his voice trembled.

Chi Tang hesitated for a moment and said, "Someone in the capital is inquiring about you, I'm wondering if it's-"

Before he finished speaking, the painting screen knelt down with a "poof": "Girl, I ......" Somehow, he didn't continue, but his face was frighteningly white.

Chi Tang was stunned, held her hand, and asked in a low voice, "Do you not want to go back like Xia Hui?" ”

The picture screen nodded abruptly and burst into tears.

It's hard to think about.

At the beginning, Xia Hui didn't want to go home, and when he heard his family, he didn't react at most, but the picture screen was scared like this.

Chi Tang hurriedly squeezed her hand and said, "It's okay, if you don't want to go back, you won't go back, your deed is still with me!" No one can take you away! ”

The painting screen burst into tears, wiped his tears, and said, "Girl, I ......" His face hesitated, as if he wanted to say it and knew how to say it.

Chi Tang pulled her up and said, "Needless to say, you don't want to go back, it must be that they are not good to you, if you really dare to come to the door, I will let people blast them out!" ”

The painting screen smiled and nodded again and again.

Chi Tang comforted her a few more words and let her go down to rest.

After the painting screen left, Chi Tang was a little distracted on the couch.

Seeing Xia Hui come in, he called out to her and asked softly, "Did you tell you about the things at the painting screen?" ”

Xia Hui shook his head: "She didn't mention it, and I didn't ask-" After a pause, his voice lowered, "Since it was sold, it can't be considered a home." ”

Chi Tang was stunned for a moment and said, "I heard her say that there are two cousins, maybe the cousins want to find her when they grow up?" Maybe my grandfather's family found it? ”

Xia Hui was surprised: "Picture screen is found at home? ”

Chi Tang shook his head: "I just heard that someone is exploring the painting screen, and I don't know who it is-" Suddenly sighed again, "If you are like you, it is good to have a brother to take care of it." ”

Xia Hui was silent for a moment and said, "My brother...... It's good, but most of them aren't—" She lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "Most of them may be like Tao Shangrong, or worse......"

……

Maybe it was really said by Xia Hui.

When the picture screen appeared the next day, Chi Tang didn't notice it, it was Mei Niang who shouted first: "Why are your eyes swollen?" It's been a night of crying, right? My eyes are also dark! If you can't cover it with this powder, you have to adjust the yellow color again-" Xia Hui glanced at it and shut up.

"You go and rest, I will serve in the house today." Xia Hui said.

The painting screen said in a low voice: "You were on duty last night, how can you have the spirit to serve?" ”

"You all go and rest!" Chi Tang couldn't listen anymore, "I'm not the only one by my side!" ”

"That's it!" Mei Niang took the opportunity to jump out, "The girl has me to serve, you all go!" ”

The picture screen answered, and was about to go back to the room, when Chi Tang shouted again.

"I'm here to let you go back to rest, not to let you go back to thinking nonsense-" Chi Tang frowned, "I said it's okay, if you don't believe me, I'll just, I can-" There are really not many threatening words, Chi Tang thought for a while before continuing, "I'm angry!" ”

Tuping laughed and saluted her: "Yes, obey!" ”

After the painting screen left, Mei Niang quietly asked, "What's wrong with her?" What's okay? ”

Chi Tang didn't answer, Gu Zi walked out of the yard, ready to go for a walk outside.

After walking for a while, he suddenly asked, "Mei Niang, where are you from?" ”

Mei Niang blinked: "I'm from the capital!" ”

"And what about your father?" Chi Tang asked.

"It's all gone!" Mei Niang replied nonchalantly.

Chi Tang was stunned and asked again, "Do you still have relatives?" ”

Mei Niang thought for a while and asked, "Is my master counted?" ”

Chi Tang nodded: "If your master wants to take you back, what will happen to you?" ”

Mei Niang suddenly changed color: "Why do you want to go back?" Why did he hurt me! ”

Chi Tang then remembered that Mei Niang was originally a servant of the Inner Teaching Workshop.

The inner teaching workshop is in charge of teaching dance and music, among which the musicians are all musicians, and the musicians are lowly people.

Although Mei Niang came to the Chi family and was still a happy household, she was always given by the emperor, and the treatment was much better than when she was in the inner teaching workshop.

"Looks like my family is fine......" Chi Tang muttered.

I couldn't wait to see it when I came one by one.

Mei Niang nodded violently and said intoxicatedly: "As long as I think of seeing Ah Lang every day, I feel that I have no regrets in life, Ah Lang is more handsome than they said......

Chi Tang looked at the scenery in the distance seriously for a while.

The inner teaching workshop is neither a good background nor a good destination for women, and it is normal for Mei Niang not to want to go back.

Even so, Mei Niang's reaction to mentioning the inner teaching workshop was not as big as the reaction of painting screen to mention her uncle.

Could it be that the uncle's family in the painting screen is more terrible than the inner teaching workshop?

Chi Tang walked in a circle around the outside of the pond house while thinking about the anomaly of this matter.

Suddenly, a familiar muttering sound was heard in my ears.

When I looked up, there were no trees around, and the forest was twenty paces away, and the muttering sound came from the forest.

It took a lot of effort to be able to spread so far.

"Uncle He!" Chi Tang shouted.

The muttering stopped, and in the blink of an eye, why bother appeared in front of her.

After Chitang's accident last time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince assigned a group of secret guards from the East Palace to protect her.

Dark guard, it must be dark, so Chi Tang doesn't know how many people there are, and he doesn't know where they are or what they look like.

Except, of course, why bother.
