Chapter 52: Find the traitor

"I'm fine." The room was obviously very warm, but Yue Gui still shivered unconsciously. The scene in the dream was terrifying.

Peony yawned, remembering the appearance of Yuegui's soul before falling asleep, and still asked with concern: "Is it really okay?" You're weird when you come back at night. ”

"It's fine." Laurel took a deep breath and feigned composure.

After listening to Laurel's answer, Peony relieved herself and continued to sleep. Laurel also lay down again, covering her head with the quilt.

The eldest lady didn't find anything, don't panic. Laurel hinted at herself over and over again, and finally fell asleep.

The sky was bright, and the maids of Lanyuan all greeted the eldest lady.

Li Tingyu looked at the blue and black under the laurel eyes, and there was an affirmation in his heart.

Nine times out of ten, the inner ghost is Yuegui, and last night Yuegui was afraid that she had a weak heart, so she couldn't sleep over and over again, and this dark circle is the best proof.

Li Tingyu called the peony forward and whispered a few words close to her ear. Peony's face changed drastically, and she glanced at Yue Gui with a complicated look.

"Stand down, Laurel stays." And they said yes, and withdrew.

As soon as Li Tingyu's words came out, Yuegui became even more nervous.

"Tell me, why did you betray me?" Li Tingyu went straight to the point, and asked so bluntly.

Yuegui subconsciously denied it: "I didn't." ”

This sentence, the young lady also asked her in her dream. Laurel quietly glanced around, and she was alone.

Fortunately, it's still different from the dream. As long as she doesn't admit it, Miss doesn't have any evidence, she can't do anything about her.

"I ask myself, why do you want to take refuge in the eldest lady?" Li Tingyu didn't listen to her defense and directly convicted her.

"The slave has absolutely not betrayed Miss." Yuegui knelt down directly, and the sound of kneeling on the ground made Li Tingyu feel that his knees were also very painful.

"I'll give you another chance, to say, or not to say?" Li Tingyu stood up and looked down at Yuegui who was kneeling on the ground.

"Slaves don't." Yue Gui didn't dare to look at the clear eyes of the eldest lady and lowered her head.

Li Tingyu stopped talking, sat back in his seat and slowly drank tea.

Laurel felt like her back was soaked with sweat, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. The eldest lady didn't speak, and she didn't dare to get up.

"Found it." Peony pushed the door in, and the indignation in her tone was audible to everyone. Yue Gui looked up sharply and saw the pair of pearl earrings on Peony's hand.

"What else do you have to say?" Li Tingyu put down the teacup and stared at the laurel kneeling in the center with a torch in his eyes.

Yuegui's face turned white, but she still refused to admit it: "This was bought by a slave." ”

"This pearl is in good condition, plus this silver ear hook, it can't be brought down without two taels of silver." Peony directly broke her lie. "What's more, I saw this pair of earrings in Zhishu, and Mrs. rewarded her before."

Yuegui regretted it very much at the moment. She shouldn't have thought that she could take these earrings as a dowry when she got married in the future, she should pawn the earrings as soon as she got them.

Yue Gui directly gave up the quibble and knelt on the ground without saying a word.

"Why did you betray Miss." Peony pursed her lips, her tone full of disappointment.

She and Yuegui are both from the old lady's side, and the relationship is the best on weekdays.

Last time, I saw that the eldest lady was desperate for Eleven, so she told Yuegui. Such a good eldest lady, she will follow her for the rest of her life. Yuegui nodded in agreement at that time, why did she betray the eldest lady now.

"What you don't understand......"

"The eldest lady is so good, what else do you want." Peony really wanted to pry Laurel's head open and see what she was thinking. Why don't you put such a good master.

"Our family is still in the mansion, even if I can follow the young lady to the general's mansion. Isn't our family still going to live in the hands of the eldest lady, can I not listen to the orders of the eldest lady? ”

As if she had found the strength to support herself, Laurel retorted word by word.

Peony listened, and didn't know how to answer for a while. What Yue Gui said is not unreasonable......

"Then why didn't you tell me?" Li Tingyu doesn't want to hear this kind of "I have a hard time" excuse.

"What?" Laurel was stunned. Peony also looked at the eldest lady with a confused expression.

"You were threatened by the eldest lady, can't you tell me as soon as possible?" Li Tingyu sighed.

"I didn't expect ......" Yuegui listened to Li Tingyu's words, and there were tears in her blank eyes, and even the slave forgot to weigh it.

"When?" Li Tingyu asked gently, not at all like the attitude towards the inner ghost.

"On the day they came, I sent Mama Liang back to Moxiangyuan, and the eldest lady left me to speak."

On the first day of daring, this thing betrayed.

Li Tingyu pondered for a while, and finally announced: "I won't say anything about this, but you can't stay with me anymore." ”

"Ask Miss for mercy." Yuegui knelt and moved forward to Li Tingyu, and the tears in her eyes finally flowed.

"Either you will be a third-class maid like Qingzhu, or you will go to the old lady yourself and go back to Muyuan Hall."

Be a man and leave a line, and see each other in the future.

She can't send away Yuegui like she sent away the predecessor of Pinglan Yuan, after all, this is the old lady's person. And Yuegui's mother, Lao Tzu, is still the steward of the Li family, so she doesn't need to be too stiff.

"The slave and maid go and beg the old lady." Laurel bit her lip and made her decision. If you want her to be a third-class maid, it is better to ask for her life.

"Just think about it, don't reveal this matter, otherwise you will know the consequences." Li Tingyu was very satisfied with Yuegui's decision, and she didn't really want this kind of subordinate who was in Cao Ying's heart and in Han.

Is it time for her to lay off employees. If there are too many people, it is easy to be exploited.

Before Li Tingyu finished pondering, Liang's personal maid came. Yuegui wiped away her tears and quickly got up and stood behind Li Tingyu. Peony stepped aside.

"Miss, Madame, please." Zhishu was brought in by Jin Zi and gave Li Tingyu a salute.

"What is my mother looking for me?" Li Tingyu got rid of a traitor, and he was in a very happy mood.

Zhishu didn't know why the eldest lady was in such a good mood, so he replied: "Madame said that she had made an appointment with the second lady of the General's Mansion, and she would go to the General's Mansion today." ”

As soon as Zhishu said it, Li Tingyu remembered that this matter was proposed by her and the old lady.

"Got it." Li Tingyu swept to the maid beside her, in fact, she wanted to take Eleven.

After all, Eleven has some skills, and if something happens, you can delay it for a while. But Liang and Eleven have a grudge, so don't take her to hang out in front of Liang.

Li Tingyu finally brought gold and peony, after all, peony is stable, and gold seems to be familiar with the general's mansion. With this combination, this trip to the General's Mansion should be safe and sound, right?

I hope the Liang family doesn't produce any moths.

Jin Zi didn't know that her own lady had made up for her brain, if she knew, she would definitely tell her young lady: I am not familiar with the General's Mansion at all, I have only been to the gate of the General's Mansion!
