Chapter 112: Questioning
Lan Xin took a deep breath, and only after a while did she say stupidly: "Enough is enough, eldest lady, cleaning the garden can already satisfy Lan Xin, Lan Xin is stomach is a ghost for a while, this mouth does not listen to the call, it listens to the stomach." It's not like Lan Xin thinks so, when Lan Xin comes back to his senses, the food has already gone into his mouth, what can Lan Xin do? Lan Xin is also desperate! ”
Lan Xin finished speaking almost without breathing, with a face that did not blush and her heart did not beat, as if it was really as she said, it was the fault of her mouth and stomach, no wonder her.
Li Qinghuan listened, and raised his eyebrows even higher.
"Lan Xin."
Lan Xin subconsciously responded: "What's the matter, eldest miss?" ”
Li Qinghuan said slowly: "You have been in the garden for a while, it stands to reason that with so many flowers and plants, you should have absorbed a lot of heaven and earth aura, how can you still be hungry?" I don't believe it, you just said that these flowers and plants can already satisfy you, why do you still steal food! ”
Lanxin: ......
The eldest lady was clearly talking about cleaning the garden, why did she get flowers and plants! What's more, these flowers and plants can't be eaten, and she is not a god, how can she absorb the aura of heaven and earth?
Lan Xin felt that she was very aggrieved.
"Miss, Lan Xin is a mortal, she really can't absorb the aura of heaven and earth, she will still be hungry."
Li Qinghuan didn't continue to dwell on this, but asked, "Didn't Miss Ben give you food on weekdays?" ”
Lan Xin's eyebrows moved slightly.
"Give, give."
"And which meal did you not eat?"
"Eat, eat."
Lan Xin's voice became lower and lower.
"Since Miss Ben is not hungry for you, and you are full, why do you blame your stomach and mouth? I see, it's clear that you're greedy! You're still looking for a reason! ”
Li Qinghuan ruthlessly exposed Lan Xin.
Lan Xin's face changed slightly, and then he took another deep breath, and his volume increased.
"That's right, the eldest lady is right, Lan Xin is greedy! There's no other reason than gluttony! ”
Li Qinghuan: ......
Why does it seem that you are so greedy now, and you are still so greedy?
That's it, this matter was just learned by accident, and this was not the focus of Li Qinghuan's attention.
Her round eyes blinked, and then she said without a trace: "That's it, since you have the courage to admit your mistakes, and I am not an unreasonable person, this matter is over." But if the next time, if you steal food again and are lazy, then Miss Ben will punish you. ”
When Lan Xin heard that Li Qinghuan had already revealed this matter, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded again and again: "Miss, don't worry, Lan Xin will definitely not do it again next time." ”
Even if it is a repeat offense, you will definitely be more careful, and you will not let the eldest lady find out no matter what! Lan Xin slandered inwardly.
After all, she is still under punishment now, and she definitely can't do whatever she wants like before. If she really annoyed the eldest lady, and she let herself clean this garden for a few more months in a fit of anger, wouldn't she be going crazy?
Lan Xin couldn't help but shiver a little just by thinking of the bees in the garden.
She didn't have feelings for these flowers and grasslands like Mingcui, she didn't understand these things, and she was very afraid of being stung by bees, so staying in the garden was purely torture for Lan Xin, not enjoyment.
If it weren't for being stung by a bee when she was a child, Lan Xin left a psychological shadow, and she wouldn't have resisted so much at this time.
But this is already the lightest punishment given to her by the eldest lady, Lan Xin naturally won't say anything, she can only work honestly. After this period of time, she returned to the eldest lady's side, and at that time, what she wanted to eat, wasn't it still in her hands!
Lan Xin thought of this, and suddenly ignited a raging fighting spirit. For the sake of food, for a better tomorrow, she must work hard.
If she does a good job, the eldest lady will be happy, and she may be asked to go back to serve in advance!
Lan Xin clenched her little fists and said to Li Qinghuan: "Miss, you're right, Lan Xin must work hard to not disappoint Miss Lanxin, let's remove the grass!" ”
Lan Xin said as she rolled up her sleeves and looked like she was gearing up.
Li Qinghuan didn't know how Lan Xin's head suddenly changed his sex, and it was clear that he was still depressed a few days ago. She was a little speechless, but she couldn't let this girl run away at this moment, she still had something to ask.
"Eh, you wait."
Lan Xin was about to take a step, but she retracted abruptly, she turned around and looked at Li Qinghuan suspiciously.
"Miss, do you have any other orders?"
Li Qinghuan gently rubbed his fingertips that had recovered some blood, raised his head to look at Lan Xin, and asked casually: "I haven't been out for a while, I'm so bored in the house, what gossip is there outside, let's listen to it." These things, you know best, Mingcui has always only cared about her flowers and plants, almost isolated from the world, I am a little bored, it just so happens that you are here, tell me about it. ”
As soon as Lan Xin heard Li Qinghuan say this, if it had been a normal day, she would have rushed over with great interest and shared the news and gossip she had heard with Li Qinghuan. But at this moment, she remembered the recent rumors outside, and the old man had specially told her that these things must not be known to the eldest lady.
Otherwise, the eldest lady will be very sad!
Lan Xinke didn't want to see Li Qinghuan sad at all, not to mention, her body had just recovered, and she still needed to recuperate, knowing this news would not be beneficial to the eldest lady.
Therefore, Lan Xin said with some hesitation: "Miss, Lan Xin hasn't received any interesting news recently. You also know that Lan Xin has been busy working in the garden all this time, and may not have gone out for a long time. ”
Li Qinghuan looked at Lan Xin's appearance, Lan Xin had been by her side for so long, she knew very well what kind of person Lan Xin was. Once Lan Xin showed this expression, it was not in line with her usual temperament.
Li Qinghuan knew that Lan Xin was lying.
She narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Oh? Didn't you just go out a few days ago? ”
Lan Xin secretly screamed in her heart that it was bad, and the eldest lady did know about this. On that day, she went out with the lord to sell miserably, no, she went out together to fight against the rumors outside for the reputation of the eldest lady, so she did not work in the garden.
originally thought it wasn't a big deal, but who would have thought that he would be asked by the eldest lady again at this time.
Lan Xin had a bitter face, and it took a long time before she said, "Miss, Lan Xin just went out to buy some things, and I really didn't hear any rumors." ”
Li Qinghuan's eyebrows raised again, obviously not believing it.
"You like to listen to stories so much, didn't you sneak away to the teahouse this time to listen to the storyteller?"
Lan Xin looked at Li Qinghuan with suspicion, and her heart really knew that the eldest lady understood her, but she could only stubbornly say: "No, eldest miss, Lan Xin really liked to hear and hear books before." But this time, Lan Xin is still being punished, so she naturally has to do things well, how can she do this kind of thing again, how can she be worthy of the eldest lady! ”
Speaking of the latter, Lan Xin believed it all to herself, and her tone became serious.
But Li Qinghuan obviously didn't buy it, she was a little impatient.
"Okay, Lan Xin, don't think I don't know, you stammered as soon as you lied, and your eyes were looking everywhere, and you didn't dare to look at Miss Ben. While Miss Ben is not angry, you honestly explain, what's going on outside? ”
The reason why Li Qinghuan asked was only because she walked back to the room the day before yesterday, and when she passed a path, behind the rockery, she heard two little maids whispering. There seem to be rumors related to her recently, and the two little maids are angrily scolding those who talk about her, fighting for her.
Li Qinghuan didn't bother the two maids, if she appeared at that time, I am afraid it would only frighten them. It's better to find out in a different way. But the general content, Li Qinghuan also listened to it.
Lan Xin heard that Li Qinghuan exposed her so straightforwardly, and her mouth suddenly became bitter. She originally wrote all her emotions on her face, and once there was a moth, she couldn't hide it from the eldest lady at all!
But Lan Xin couldn't understand how the eldest lady heard these rumors. It was about that there was a maid in the house who was talking about it, and asked the eldest lady to listen.
Originally, the people in the palace were indignant about this matter, and if they really didn't talk about it, it would naturally be impossible. It's just that I didn't expect it to be known by the eldest lady, but I don't know, how much does she know......
Lan thought for a long time before he cautiously said, "Miss, have you heard anything unpleasant recently?" Don't pay attention to it, it's all rumors outside, and it has nothing to do with you at all! ”
Li Qinghuan responded lightly.
"Oh? Is it? So why are you so vigilant? ”
Lanxin: ...... Naturally, I'm afraid that you know!
But she didn't dare to say this.
"Lan, Lan Xin didn't, the eldest lady misunderstood."
"Confess honestly, confess leniently, and resist strictly!"
Li Qinghuan's face suddenly became serious, and his tone was a little more stern.
"Otherwise, Miss Ben will really be angry."
Lan Xin looked at Li Qinghuan's expression, she had stayed by Li Qinghuan's side for so long, she could naturally tell whether what Li Qinghuan said was true or false.
There is no doubt that if she doesn't tell the truth, the eldest lady will really be angry.
"If Miss Ben is unhappy, maybe she won't punish you for cleaning the garden, but for cleaning the horses and brushing the bucket."
Li Qinghuan narrowed his eyes, looked at Lan Xin, and threatened. She knew that Lan Xin, a girl, although she was reckless on weekdays, loved cleanliness the most, and if she was asked to do these things, she couldn't accept it at all.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Lan Xin's little face suddenly turned pale!
