Chapter 17: Questioning Ruby
"You say, if it weren't for your responsibility, I wouldn't blame you. Mrs. Yun lowered her head and took a sip of tea, she couldn't understand why her daughter, who had always been well-behaved and sensible, did such a thing.
After drinking the tea, he put the teacup on the machine and made a very crisp sound: "But if you dare to lie and coax me, you have to think about it carefully." ”
Hongyu nodded tremblingly, swallowed a mouthful of spit, and said: "A few days ago, Miss and Mrs. took leave, saying that they were going to learn from several young ladies of the family at the Lantern Festival, and wanted to devote themselves to learning and studying, which also saved the face of our Yunfu and made outsiders laugh. ”
Mrs. Yun nodded slightly in approval, Yun Yi did tell her before.
Hongyu saw that the stone in her heart was half put down when she saw Madame nodding, and continued: "Miss said yesterday that there was a young lady from a family who wanted to compete with her to be a female red, so she hurriedly went, and I was not allowed to follow, but after I came back, I was very depressed...... Today, I kept myself in the room all day, and I asked the little maids to wait at the door, for fear of any accidents. ”
Hongyu reached out and wiped her tears with her sleeve, and her nose made a loud noise, causing Lady Yun to frown.
Hongyu sobbed as if she was really worried about her master, and then said: "The little girl didn't know what was going on, and I went to the door by myself, only to vaguely hear what the young lady said, 'Isn't it better to be a female red, why is it so?' and 'Hey, it's true that my skills are not as good as others', thinking that the young lady has not eaten a drop of water all day, my heart is anxious, so I went to the small kitchen to make a bowl of clear soup for the young lady, and when I came back, I met the lady. What Hongyu said is true, please Madame know. ”
Mrs. Yun frowned, a little undecided for a while, punish her, Hongyu is a single-minded protector, don't punish her, her little girl is still drunk and confused, she looked at the grandmother beside her, with exploration in her eyes.
Mama immediately understood and said to Mrs. Yun: "The old slave also heard two days ago that Miss was going to compete with others to be a female celebrity, I thought it was just a joking between girls, but I didn't take it to heart, but I didn't expect to let Miss cause such a thing without noticing for a while." ”
Mrs. Yun shook her head, she was a little unsure of what to do now, she was not very proficient in human affairs, but she vaguely felt a little strange, but she couldn't understand where.
In the end, he waved his hand and took out the majesty of the mother of the family and ordered: "Miss will not follow you if you don't follow, but you will be obedient." Mama, if Miss made a mistake, she was punished according to the rules, and Hongyu failed to protect Miss and was punished according to family law. ”
"Yes. "Mama should come down, and everyone should go back together.
Mama and Hongyu walked to a place where no one was, glanced at each other, and sighed in unison, saying that the paper bag does not know fire, in fact, if there is enough paper, it can still wrap a spark.
"Thanks to your shrewdness today, I wouldn't have known what to say to Madame. Mama patted Hongyu's hand, and no one knew what Miss looked like outside better than them, and instructed, "You must be careful in the future." ”
"Don't worry, godmother. Even if it's for the money, I'll definitely serve the young lady well. Hongyu stretched out her hand and took off the bracelet on her wrist and stuffed it into her mother's hand: "In the future, please ask my godmother to take care of me." ”
Mama stuffed the bracelet into her sleeve, and shook it silently, but what she said sounded good: "You kid, you are too honest, if you have good things, you think about my old bones, go back quickly, godmother doesn't take care of you, who will take care of you." ”
