After a while, Hongxiao folded a string of heavy apricots in her hand and returned, stuffing it into her mouth in front of Chu Yueli. After eating, she knelt down with a puff, choked her neck and said, "The master's meaning, the slave understands." From now on, the slave will do whatever the master tells the slave to do. ”

Chu Yueli asked lightly: "Let you admit that you stole apricots and are willing to suffer this beating?" ”

Hongxiao touched the ground with her head and said, "Willingly!" ”

Chu Yueli squinted and smiled: "That's it, it's very good." ”

Hongxiao felt that Chu Yueli's "very good" voice was like a long-planned wait, so that she knelt on the ground to confess the master. The strange thing is that she didn't have any resentment in her heart, but a little excitement and anticipation. She was curious to know how her master had left her from Mrs. Chu and the eldest lady.

Hongxiao herself didn't notice it, she didn't have the slightest doubt that Chu Yueli could do this, but was curious about how she did it. Unconsciously, she had completely believed in Chu Yueli's ability.

Chu Yueli hooked her finger at Hongxiao and whispered.

Hongxiao glanced at Chu Yueli in surprise, but she still responded seriously, turned around and went out, picked up the basket prepared by Duobao, walked out of the Wisteria Pavilion, hid behind a tree, and stayed.

Not long after, Chu Zhenzhu came all the way to the Wisteria Pavilion surrounded by the maid and the mother-in-law.

Chu Zhenzhu looks very much like Mrs. Chu, she looks very dignified, but she is not a beauty. She wore an eight-treasure hairpin on her head, and a pearl of excellent quality fell from her forehead, which was smooth and elegant. She was dressed in a white dress with gold rim, a red horse-faced skirt, and a pair of gold-flowered white-soled shoes. She has a string of coral beads hanging from her left hand and two openwork gold bracelets on her right hand. If you look closely, the gold bracelet is also inlaid with some colorful jewels, which shine brightly as she walks, and it is very rich.

Chu Xianglin, who was accompanying her, had a thick layer of rouge on her face, and a pink veil was hung on the outside, trying to hide the bruises.

Chu Zhenzhu came to the Wisteria Pavilion and glanced into the courtyard, and his brows naturally furrowed.

Chu Xianglin said: "Eldest sister, go in and take a look, that dirt bun will spoil things the most." Once, I had to tear down the wisteria trellis and burn it for a fire. ”

Chu Zhenzhu glanced at Chu Xianglin and said, "I don't need you to instigate on the side, I'll go in and have a look." With that, he rushed into the Wisteria Pavilion with great momentum.

Hongxiao, who was hiding outside the Wisteria Pavilion, stood on tiptoe and quietly left.

Xiangzi's daughter-in-law, who came out of the backyard, as soon as she saw Chu Zhenzhu, seemed to see Yiyi, and immediately ran to Chu Zhenzhu crying, knelt on the ground and wailed: "The slave is finally looking forward to the return of the eldest lady." It was useless to be a slave, and if they did not protect these fruit trees, they let people pick some and eat them. Eldest Miss, the slave didn't sleep all day and night, staring at the grass and trees in the Wisteria Pavilion, but her arms couldn't twist her thighs, and she couldn't guard this yard for the eldest lady...... Miss...... It's useless to be a slave......"

In the howl of Xiangzi's daughter-in-law, Chu Yueli closed the door of the room, as if she didn't know that Chu Zhenzhu was coming.

Chu Zhenzhu twisted his eyebrows and looked at the door of the wing room, and heard Chu Xiang say coldly: "The eldest sister is back, and she dares to come and see her behind closed doors, it's really majestic!" ”

Chu Zhenzhu raised his finger covered with red color, pointed to Chu Yueli's door, and said, "I lost two things in my house, go, find them for me." ”

The wet nurse is the mother of Xiangzi's daughter-in-law, and when she saw her daughter crying so sadly, she was already furious. After she got Chu Zhenzhu's order, she immediately beckoned the two stout mothers-in-law, rushed to Chu Yueli's door, patted the door vigorously, and shouted, "Third Miss open the door!" Open the door! ”

In the room, Chu Yueli put her feet on the table and was pressing her legs, ignoring the sound outside the door.

On the other side, Hongxiao brought a basket of rotten apricots to the Red Sleeve Pavilion, handed it to Chunqin, and said carefully: "This is what my young lady asked me to send to my aunt to eat." ”

Chunqin sneered and said, "I should be a rare thing, but just a few apricots." ”

Hongxiao accompanied the smiling face and said, "Sister Lao Chunqin told my aunt, my young lady said, let my aunt prepare the contract of the candied fruit shop, and she will come to pick it up later." As for Duobao, I also sent it together and let my aunt beat it hard! After saying that, he changed his face instantly, spat on Chunqin's face, and then left proudly in Chunqin's stunned.

Chunqin came back to her senses and was about to smash people with apricots, but found that except for the good ones above, almost all of them were rotten below, which could disgust a person to death.

Chunqin wiped the saliva off her face, took the apricots and went to find Aunt Zhao, added oil and vinegar and said something, so angry that Aunt Zhao's hands trembled.

In the Wisteria Pavilion, Duobao clenched the stick in his hand tightly, and said to Chu Yueli in a low voice: "Master, the slave didn't steal the eldest lady's things. ”

Chu Yueli continued to press her legs and didn't say anything.

Duobao said nervously: "Master, they are about to rush in, what should I do?" He waved the stick in his hand and said fiercely, "Slave beat them away!" ”

As soon as Chu Yueli made a move, she directly snatched the stick from Duobao's hand, threw it on the table, and said, "Open the door." ”

Duobao looked at his empty hands, was stunned for a moment, blinked his puzzled eyes, and then turned to open the door.

Outside the door, a stout woman was raising her legs and kicking the door with all her might. As a result, Duobao suddenly opened the door, and the mother-in-law kicked it into the air, and the whole person fell into the house, not to speak, but also played a word horse. Sadly, there is still a threshold in the middle of the horse, which is really going to kill the mother-in-law.

In the screams of the stout mother-in-law, the nurse calmly walked into the house and said to Chu Yueli: "Third Miss, the eldest lady has lost two pieces of jewelry, I want to rummage through them, and I bother you to go out and wait." ”

Chu Yueli nodded seemingly obediently, stuck to the nurse's side, walked to the door, went straight to Chu Zhenzhu, and said timidly: "Big sister......"

Chu Zhenzhu didn't look at Chu Yueli, and said, "This Wisteria Pavilion, the third sister is still used to living?" ”

Chu Yueli replied honestly: "I can't get used to it." ”

Chu Zhenzhu looked at Chu Yueli at this time, and asked with a smile, "What?" Living in the imperial capital from the countryside, can't adapt to this prosperity? ”

Chu Yueli replied: "No. These flowers are so fragrant that they choke my brain. Aunt Zhao likes it here and wants to move in. As he spoke, he sneezed at Chu Zhenzhu.

Chu Zhenzhu's face instantly turned black.

Chu Xianglin said unhappily: "The third sister speaks well, but don't always take Aunt Zhao with you." ”

Chu Yueli pointed to Chu Xianglin's face and said, "What's the matter, Aunt Zhao doesn't like it here?" Do you like the fourth sister? Hey, why are you covered with something on your face, are you afraid of sneezing? ”

Chu Xianglin immediately explained: "It's not! I...... My face ......"

Chu Yueli had long felt that there was something wrong with Chu Xianglin's face, but she didn't bother to ask the bottom line, but now that she hit the muzzle, she will easily understand a thing or two. Chu Yueli didn't wait for Chu Xianglin to explain clearly, pulled down the thin veil on her face, and exclaimed, "Ah, why did the fourth sister swell into a pig's head?" I remembered that the day you came back from Jingruo Temple, you blocked your face from people. Did you offend the Buddha and be beaten by the Buddha?! Oh, I look at this way of playing, it is quite a charter, and it starts left and right. ”
