The masters are not happy, and the people below are naturally all carrying their tails. Aunt Tang is cold now, and the people in Lanyue Courtyard are all shrinking their heads and eager to get into the cracks in the ground, except for Zhirong.

Although Zhirong has only been here for a short time, he rarely has a good appearance and good temperament and can do things, and he can't help but be appreciated by Aunt Tang, and he also gets along well with most people in the house.

There was such a big event in the house, Mrs. was sick, Aunt Tang was grounded, Aunt Yang also fell out of favor, and the house was deserted all of a sudden. The subordinates exchanged heads and ears in private, and they all said that Aunt Tang was afraid that she would be completely planted this time.

There happened to be a new girl who didn't know the inside story, and everyone was talking more and more energetically, and someone couldn't help but see Zhirong, and couldn't help but give others a look, and the discussion stopped.

"Zhirong, why are you here?"

Zhirong smiled shallowly, as if he didn't notice the unnaturalness on everyone's faces, and said softly: "My aunt has always been unable to sleep well in the past two days and nights, I remembered that there is still some sleeping sandalwood in the house, and I came to ask my aunt for some." ”

The masters used incense burners to burn spices and incense in their houses, which was leisurely and elegant, and naturally cost money, which was the exquisiteness of the rich and noble. If it was in the past, Aunt Tang would naturally be able to afford it in the house.

But now it's different from the past, since Zhirong came to ask her mother-in-law for it, she said that it was naturally a shoddy incense, which was bought by the people in the house to smoke the musty smell, which made people sigh.

When the woman saw Zhirong opening her mouth with a smile, she suddenly felt that she couldn't hold back her mouth, and hurriedly said, "Yes, I'll go and bring it to you." ”

Zhirong said: "Then it's troublesome for my mother." After that, she waited on the spot, and naturally something good came up to inquire, and asked, "Aunt Tang is not feeling well, why can't she sleep well suddenly?" ”

The meaning of inquiry in these words was too obvious, but everyone listened with their ears pricked up, but fortunately, Zhirong didn't care, sighed and said: "I can't say this either, it's just that the third lady is the meat that fell from my aunt's body, and now that the mother and daughter are separated, it is naturally difficult to sleep and eat, which makes people unbearable to watch." ”

Everyone had different thoughts when they heard this, and some people muttered: "Not to mention what Aunt Tang has done, in the end, it is the mother and daughter who are connected, I heard that the third lady is also making a lot of trouble, and the Zhaohe Courtyard is crying all day long." ”

Everyone was interested when they heard this, and the person who just opened his mouth wanted to ask again, but it happened that the mother-in-law had already taken the incense stick out with her hands and feet. Zhirong thanked him and left without delay, and everyone had to disperse.

Zhirong went back to Lanyue Courtyard, and when he entered the house, he was stunned when he saw Tang holding another piece of Third Miss's clothes. She silently poured a cup of tea for Tang's, only to find that the color of the tea was wrong, and when she opened the lid, she saw that it was all yesterday.

Zhi Rong Suri has a good temper, and at this time, he couldn't help but get angry, and scolded: "These ungrateful things, my aunt was only banned the day before yesterday, and now they are so slack, it's really not true." ”

In the past, the Tang family was the most delicate, but since giving birth to a daughter and falling out of favor one after another, his temperament has been sharpened little by little. Now that he has encountered great changes, he is finally a little more calm, and when he saw this, he only smiled bitterly: "That's it, no wonder others, I don't see hope now, and I am afraid that there will be more practices in the future." ”

Zhirong persuaded: "Auntie, don't be discouraged, you still have the third miss." Although the third lady is not as graceful as the second young master, it is also the blood of the master, as long as the lady can be soft-hearted and return the third miss, we will not have a chance in the future. ”

Hearing this, a glimmer of hope finally ignited in Tang's eyes, but he hesitated: "I'm afraid that Madame has a problem in my heart, and she won't even come to Lanyue Courtyard, so there is no way." ”

Zhirong pondered for a moment and said, "Madame is soft-hearted, as long as the aunt is willing to give it a try, the slave is willing to give it a try." ”

Not only Lanyue Courtyard, but also in Zhaohe Courtyard, when the people walked under the window, they all slowed down, for fear of waking up the sleeping little ancestor. But Rao was like this, and he couldn't rest for a while.

It was about a serious illness that her body was too weak, Qi Shi got up late these days, she slept soundly, and she might as well wake her up with a familiar child's cry.

Qi rubbed his forehead and got up, and Zou's mother hurriedly came in from outside, and sighed: "The third lady wakes up, and Mrs. can't rest in peace." I don't know if Aunt Tang almost had a difficult birth during childbirth, and the third lady is about to lack vitality, which is really difficult to feed. ”

Qi sighed: "This kid is also pitiful, the old man only has Hongrui in his eyes, Zihan has not seen it a few times since he was born, and now the Tang family is ...... Alas. ”

Mother Zou wanted to speak and stopped, hesitated for a while and said: "I just heard people say that Aunt Tang has been sleeping and eating for the past two days, and she probably misses the third lady." ”

Qi also said: "Children are born to be concerned for a lifetime, and now that Yan'er is married, I am very worried, not to mention that Zihan is still so small, so I naturally can't rest assured." ”

It's another day of tossing, and it's time to sleep after dinner.

I don't know what happened to the third lady today, but she was crying more and more at this time, and the Qi family was afraid that she would cry a lot, so she held her in her arms and coaxed her for a while before she stopped crying.

The girl outside suddenly came in, looked at Qi's face and said, "Madam, Aunt Tang's Zhirong hurriedly asked to see her, saying that Aunt Tang was her and she ......."

Zou's mother frowned and said, "If you have something to say, what do you do." ”

The girl then said: "I said that Aunt Tang felt sorry for Madame, and she was thinking about committing suicide at this time, so she begged Madame to go over and persuade her." ”

Qi's heart tightened, and without waiting for Zou's mother to persuade him, he got up and walked out, Zou's mother saw that she couldn't persuade her, so she called the new girl, took her cloak and hurriedly followed.

After leaving the Zhaohe Courtyard for a while, the Qi family came back to his senses and was still holding the child in his arms, but after thinking about it, the Tang family would probably be better when he saw his daughter. Qi caught up and put on a cloak for his master, and said, "It's cold at night, and the lady's body is good, but she can't stand the wind." ”

Qi Shi also put the child into the cloak, how did the child know this, a pair of clear eyes looked around, and probably felt novel.

Seeing that Lanyue Courtyard was close at hand, Mother Zou couldn't help but say again: "Madam, don't forget what Miss said, Aunt Tang ......"

Qi Shi nodded with a calm face, and then raised his feet and entered the Lanyue Courtyard. As soon as I entered the courtyard, I could hear the crying inside, and I didn't know that I was frightened by this situation, there was no one in the courtyard, Zhirong said with red eyes: "Aunt feels ashamed of her wife, and she really misses the third lady, and she can't think about it for a while, so she will take the white silk and commit suicide, but fortunately, the slave and maid found it quickly." ”

While speaking, she had already led Qi and Zou's mother into the back room, and really saw a white silk hanging on the beams of the house, and Tang's cloak was broken from the liver and intestines sitting on the ground crying, and when she saw Qi, she seemed to be stunned, and then kowtowed neatly.

"The concubine is a sinner, and she has no face to see her again, so it is better to die clean."

Tang's head was not ambiguous at all, and within a few clicks, blood was seen on his forehead, and Qi was busy stepping forward to help people.

The third lady in her arms probably recognized her mother, and immediately "babbled" and stretched out her hand to Tang, who suddenly came to his senses and took the child into his arms.

Qi was stunned, but he didn't say anything more, and when he saw Tang holding his daughter crying and laughing, he couldn't help but feel sad. After finally Tang cried, Qi said: "Get up, you can see that you haven't had a good time these days." ”

Tang's eyes were red and swollen, and he got up with his daughter who was already sleeping in his arms, and stood in front of Qi and didn't dare to raise his head.

"The concubine was confused for a while, and the ghost made a big mistake, and now she is to blame."

The room was silent for a while, and Zhirong seemed to be a little jealous when he saw this, and quietly retreated.

After a while, Qi looked at the third lady who was sleeping peacefully and sighed: "Regardless of whether you are to blame or not, this child is pitiful." You have had a hard time these two days, and the child is not used to living with me, and I have lost weight when I see my little face. ”

Hearing this, Tang Shi hugged the child in his arms more and more, knelt down again with tears like rain, and begged: "What Madam said is that the concubine's crime is unforgivable, but the third lady is innocent.

The concubine knows that she has committed a big crime, and her wife is willing to keep the concubine body is already a bodhisattva's heart. But the concubine begged for mercy, so let the third miss stay by the concubine's side, and the concubine would not dare to have two hearts anymore and teach the third miss well. ”

There was a pungent inferior fragrance in the room, and Qi was weak at the beginning of his serious illness, so he couldn't help coughing twice, and hesitated for a moment before saying: "This is what the master meant, and I can't make my own decisions, so I'd better go back and ask the master." ”

When Tang heard this, he only felt that it was Qi's excuse, and grabbed the corner of Qi's clothes with two steps on his knees and said sadly: "The concubine has only Zihan in this life, if even Zihan is going to be taken away, what is the difference between it and taking my life?" It's better to let me die. ”

Seeing this, Zou's mother hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, but she just took two steps and felt a flower in front of her, and her body was paralyzed and sat on the ground. Qi Shi was startled, and subconsciously wanted to get up to help, but his body was also weak and sat back again.

Tang's face turned pale and she also reacted, but she hadn't noticed it yet, and at this moment, she found that her whole body was soft, and she almost couldn't even hold the child in her arms.

"What, what's going on?"

Her voice trembled, and she was crying coldly, and when she turned her head to look at it, her eyes suddenly split, and she shouted in a trembling voice: "It's on fire!" ”

Qi and Zou's mother realized that something was wrong, and when they looked up, they really saw that the outside room was already burning, and a few wisps of smoke floated in as they spoke, and several people might as well choke and cough.

Several people in the room had weak hands and feet, and Zou's mother tried her best to climb out a few steps, and then she could only collapse on the ground weakly. However, the most desperate thing was to see that the fire had already burned in, but there was no movement outside.

It was already night in the capital, but it was still sunset in Yuehe Town, thousands of miles away. Ji Lingyun stood in front of the window and watched the sunset quietly, but he couldn't help but be secretly anxious in his heart, as if he had missed something.

Shu Yue came in with soup and put it on the table, carefully combed her hanging hair, and then stepped forward with a smile: "What are you looking at?" ”

Only then did Ji Lingyun realize that he turned around, and saw that it was Shu Yue, who didn't know why, a trace of amazement flashed in his heart.

"I wonder when the young lady commanded?"

Shu Yue couldn't see his alienated attitude, and affectionately took a spoon and filled a bowl of soup, and said with concern: "Your body is not well, it is better to recuperate more." This is the tonic soup I asked the kitchen to stew for you, so drink it while it's hot. ”

Ji Lingyun was still rusty and polite and said: "Miss is polite, I am already grateful to be rescued by Miss Madame, Miss still don't have to work so hard in the future." ”

Shu Yue bit her lip, and suddenly forced out tears, and said with tears in her eyes: "Why do you have to be like this between you and me, Ling Yun, do you really not remember me?" ”
