In the lobby, Situ Ji stood with his hands behind his back, Mrs. Situ sat on the main seat, with a worried face, Situ Mingyue knew that his father was worried about her sudden illness again, and then heard Situ Ji sigh,

"What the hell is going on, how is it good, saying that our family is sick for the month."

Mrs. Situ was suspicious, Situ Ji shook her head, her face was solemn, Situ Mingyue looked at Situ Ji and Mrs. Situ, and comforted him lightly,

"Father and mother, don't worry, this matter must be intentional, you should not pay too much attention to it, rumors are always self-defeating."

Situ Ji didn't speak, looking at Situ Mingyue,

"It's a good thing not to enter the palace, you can do your own thing with peace of mind, and your father supports you."

Situ Mingyue nodded.

In the next few days, Situ Mingyue always took Situ Jing to the street to see some rouge gouache and jewelry, and the people on the street were shocked and suspicious, they were far away from Situ Mingyue, they were a little confused about what was going on, didn't it mean that the young lady of the Situ family was infected with the epidemic, why did she still show up like this, like a nobody. Situ Mingyue was happy, she didn't care about the people around her, but became happier and happier, and when she saw a vendor selling sugar gourds, she suddenly became so happy, she took Situ Jing's hand,

"Jing'er, hurry up, buy a sugar gourd, Miss, I love this the most,"

The vendor looked at Situ Mingyue, a little hesitant to sell it to them, but looking at Miss Situ holding her maid's hand, and the girl was not panicked, she gritted her teeth and sold it to Situ Mingyue, Situ Mingyue picked up the sugar gourd and bit it hard, and said with a pompous expression,

"It's delicious, Jing'er,"

Situ Jing smiled helplessly and shook her head, and followed behind Situ Mingyue with a pile of rouge gouache in her arms, Situ Mingyue chewed while handing the sugar gourd to Situ Jing's mouth,

"Jing'er, you eat too."

Situ Jing knew what Situ Mingyue meant, opened her mouth and took a bite of the sugar gourd, nodded and praised,

"Miss, it's really delicious,"

Then, in the stunned eyes of everyone, Situ Mingyue took Situ Jing back to the house.

When she arrived at the house, Situ Mingyue asked Situ Jing to bring tea and drank a big cup fiercely.

"That sugar gourd is really my nemesis, I hate sugar gourd the most,"

Situ Jing smiled,

"But Miss, what you just ate was really delicious,"

Situ Mingyue tapped Situ Jing's forehead with her finger,

"It's obvious that you like to eat more."

Situ Jing smiled shyly.

Not long after, the rumor that Miss Situ was infected with the epidemic was self-defeating.

Situ Mingyue asked Situ Jing to ask the people in the house one by one, she wanted to "be infected" not only to dispel the rumors, but also to find out the source of this matter, otherwise there may be greater hidden dangers in the future. Within a few days, Situ Jing followed the conversation between the little maids and maids to find the first person who was sick in the house, Situ Mingyue called him to the front, it was a long monkey mouth and pointed cheeks, Situ Mingyue took a closer look, this face, as if he had seen it somewhere. Situ Mingyue thought about it, and before she could ask, the manservant below panicked,

"Miss, it's really not that the little one said that the young lady was sick, but the little one also listened to what others said before believing it."

Situ Mingyue said with a smile,

"Oh, who did you listen to?"

The manservant panicked,

"Listen, listen, listen to the people on the street."

"People on the street,"

Situ Mingyue laughed even harder,

"Then you're really great, Miss is sick, I heard outsiders, it's still someone on the street, you have something wrong." The manservant reacted to his own contradictions, he didn't dare to speak, fine sweat was on his forehead, Situ Mingyue glanced at him, "What is your relationship with the butler of the Martial Mansion?" ”

The manservant immediately knelt on the ground,

"Miss, Miss, the small, the small one is really not intentional, the little ghost is confused, the housekeeper of the Wufu Mansion is my cousin, he said that he has recently made a little money, and he wants to take the small one, as long as the small one tells the people in the house that you have an epidemic, the small one can get a lot of silver, the villain was lost for a while, and agreed, Miss, the little one knows that he is wrong, please spare the little one."

He trembled all over, it was the first time he had done this kind of thing, no wonder he couldn't hold his breath, Situ Mingyue thought, why did the martial arts housekeeper let him do this, she waved her hand,

"Jing'er, take him to the account room to settle the bill, give her an extra month's salary, and go home."

When the manservant heard this, he didn't beg for mercy, but his body was still trembling, so Situ Jing picked him up and took him down. Situ Mingyue's mind turned a motion, she walked out of the room and beckoned the little girl,

"You, go to the martial arts family and see what the Zen family is doing,"

The little maid took the order, Situ Mingyue turned around and went to the front yard, and when she saw her father, she stepped forward

"Father, what does my daughter want to ask you?"

Situ Ji looked at her,

"What's the matter?"

"My daughter wants to ask you, did the county order come to our house that day to check the accounts, and did the Shanshi return the account books that were copied?"

Situ Ji shook his head,

"Shan's didn't send the account book back, she was worried that I wouldn't give her money, so she kept hiding the account book on her body, as for the county order, he didn't find anything last time, so he left after two sentences."

Situ Mingyue was silent, and at this time, the little guy sent out came back,

"Miss, the little one went to the door of the martial arts house to guard, and did not find that the good family had gone out, the small guard inquired, saying that a few days ago, in the middle of the night, the two brothers of the martial arts family suddenly came with the government, and since that day, the good family has not been out much."

Situ Mingyue frowned, at this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the door, the martial brothers walked in from the gate with a swagger from the government, Situ Mingyue looked at them indifferently, Wu Yuanqing looked at Situ Mingyue with a sneer,

"Hello Miss Situ, my two brothers are ordered by the county order to take your father to have a good talk today."

Situ Mingyue said indifferently,

"What to talk about, what can't be said here!"

Wu Yuanqing said with a smile,

"What are you talking about, your father knows this best, we have already found out this account book, the county order will be furious, he trusts your Situ family so much in his heart, I didn't expect Master Situ to play these conspiracies behind his back."

Listening to his words, Situ Mingyue completely understood, what kind of conspiracy, these two or five boys obviously wanted to beat a rake upside down and come to pit her Situ family, Situ Mingyue stepped forward and looked at Wu Yuanqing,

"You have a fake ledger, and what you say is so reasonable, it seems that you have really been preparing for a long time!"

Wu Yuanqing pretended to be stupid and said,

"Miss Situ can't say that, what we have now is the real account book of your Situ family, if you want to say that this fake account book should be the one that the county order came to see last time, Master Situ, do you say it."

Situ Ji didn't speak, just looked at him coldly, Wu Yuanqing smiled indifferently, stretched out his hand,

"Master Situ, please."

Situ Mingyue was anxious, and just wanted to kick Wu Yuanqing with a flying kick and was stopped by Situ Ji, Situ Ji shook his head at her,

"Don't be reckless!"

"Come on, take the young lady back to the room,"

After speaking, he was about to go with Wu Yuanqing, Situ Mingyue looked at Wu Yuanqing coldly, shook hands and grabbed Wu Yuanqing's collar,

"If my father is missing a hair, I will make you regret that you came to my Situ Mansion today."

Wu Yuanqing looked at her ruthless appearance, and suddenly felt some chills in his heart, he didn't know, how could the girl in front of him, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, have such a compelling momentum, Wu Yuanshuang didn't see anything, he shouted,

"Situ Mingyue, what are you going to do, the officers and soldiers are here today, how dare you be rude."

Situ Ji looked at Situ Mingyue,

"Yue'er, obedient",

Situ Mingyue let go of her hand and looked at Situ Ji,

"Dad, my daughter listens to you, and my daughter will find out everything and return your innocence."

Situ Ji waved his hand and was escorted away by the officers and soldiers. Situ Mingyue's eyes were red, and she kicked on the thick ancient acacia next to her, some leaves fluttered down because of vibration, Situ Mingyue lowered her head and shoulders, and slowly walked to the backyard, Situ Jing ran forward and held Situ Mingyue, Situ Mingyue raised her head and showed him a smile that was more ugly than crying, Situ Jing slowly reddened her eyes, she lowered her head and helped Situ Mingyue to walk forward, not daring to let her see.

Situ Jing originally thought that the young lady would be depressed and depressed because of that day, but in the next few days, Situ Mingyue was not depressed, she should eat, drink, and bury the rest of the time in the study, arrange for the little maid to pay attention to the dynamics of the martial arts family and the county magistrate's government, and said that as long as she sees the good family, she will let the little maid bring a few people to arrest her. But after all, this is a long-term war, the Nashan family has never been out until now, Situ Mingyue can't afford it, she can't let her father suffer in prison all the time, she asked Situ Jing to take some money to the little guy, let him bribe the people guarding the cell, and then let people spend some money from the little guy in the martial mansion to buy a set of clothes for the servants of the martial house, she can't wait, she has to go to the martial house in person.
