Su Xiangsi lived a grounded life with such peace of mind. Eat and drink without falling. Su Qing was unwilling to learn that Su Xiangsi was just grounded for such a small punishment.

The boudoir woman didn't return home at night for a few days, and she passed by so lightly.

Su Qing knew that Su Xiangsi was kidnapped, but she didn't know who it was. And every time she received a kidnapping letter in the house, she came back safe and sound, and she couldn't identify Su Xiangsi as kidnapped without evidence.

After being very angry, I thought about it carefully, and felt that Su Xiangsi was very weird.

What secrets is she hiding? Who did you offend? Is there a threat to yourself? Why does King Yu value her every move so much?

The big thing of splitting up the family is definitely not something she said impulsively, it is very likely that it has been premeditated for a long time. Now that she's compromised for the time being, there's a good chance she's planning something else.

Thinking of Su Yiling's gloating tone in her room, she looked down on her heart. What is the second room, and what qualifications do you have to compete with the big house.

The second master has only one idle official, and he still hasn't been promoted for a few years. The second lady can't be in charge of the family, and Su Mingrun may not be on the list next month.

In contrast, as long as you can destroy the third room, it is easy to deal with the second room.

What if, the two rooms join forces?

Su Qing leaned back on the circle chair, and her eyes gradually deepened. Some things have to be prepared in advance.

I thought that the third lady would cry from the bamboo courtyard, but I didn't expect it to be very quiet and there was no abnormality. I heard that the subordinates of Tingzhuyuan have been dismissed, and now they are desolate and miserable, and they are sad to watch.

Ning Tingting waited on the side and quietly looked at the third lady in front of the table from time to time, and the-for-tat confrontation with Mrs. Su that day scared her out of a cold sweat.

The courage is too great, but it is afraid that the first person in the capital is so tough to negotiate conditions with the elders.

Although the tone is polite, there is no room for refusal in every word. She also wondered in her heart whether the third lady would be isolated and indifferent because of this, and wondered if there was no hope for the future.

Now she was wrong, and the third lady was not affected at all.

I copied a few pages of Buddhist scriptures when I was happy, and I had time to loosen the soil pine of the flower beds in the courtyard, and often took care of the shop under the name of the master.

After listening to the bamboo courtyard, Su Xiangsi did not arrange many errands. In the past, you could see the little maids in the yard chattering from the lattice window, but now the popularity is gone.

There are five or six in business under her father's name, and he doesn't seek to make more money, so he leaves it to her to take care of it alone. In the past few years, it has been stable, and the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper are also loyal.

At first, I was not convinced or cared about the little girl's film, but in the end I was willing to serve Su Xiangsi.

It's just that......

Recently, business has been half as good as usual.

Su Xiangsi thoughtfully, his fingers tapped the account book on his lap. The people over there really couldn't bear it, and the poisonous arrows from all directions were all directed at the Tingzhu Courtyard.

Retracting her god, she inadvertently noticed that Ning Tingting was waiting beside her and quietly looked at her, this girl had only been here for less than half a month, and she was very neat in serving people, and she was very thoughtful about things.

Let her replace the rosin's work, and she can get started quickly and without mistakes.

"Got something to say?"

Ning Tingting didn't expect Su Xiangsi to notice her small movements a long time ago, and when she heard the voice, she trembled and hurriedly replied.

"No, the young lady is grounded, and the slave is very worried."

Su Xiangsi's lips raised: "Are you still quite dedicated, are you literate?" Come and ask me to grind the ink. ”

Serving the ink is something that only a faithful person can do, which means that the master can trust the servant. There are a lot of hidden things that you may know a little bit about.

Ning Tingting was stunned by this good thing, and she was really favored by God. was able to serve the third lady so quickly.

Su Xiangsi lowered his eyes and glanced at the person beside him, and he was very skilled in grinding ink.

Set your mind and continue to deal with the account books, and Rosin should be able to go to the ground in two days.

It's so quiet here that people can't remember that there are three rooms, and groups of female dependents over there gather in the pavilion of the lotus pond to enjoy the lotus flowers.

After Mrs. Su gave up half of the housekeeper's rights, she lived a leisurely life, but she rarely walked around the yard. Only in the summer do they like to hide in the garden and walk around.

When people are old and the weather is hot and dry, they don't have the idea of going out. Su Yiling personally picked it up and put it in the house, which lost some meaning.

When I woke up in the morning, I felt that today's wind was a little cooler, not the hot air blowing on my face, so Mrs. Su got up and wanted to go out for a walk.

Song Mengtong leaned against the pillar of the pavilion, holding the fish porcelain in his hand and casually sprinkled a few grains into the lotus pond. The face is listless, and there is a noticeable blackness under the eyes. The summer scenery full of pools in front of her made her feel bored.

Even so, it still can't hide her delicate appearance.

"Miss, let's go back to the yard, I haven't been able to rest well by copying scriptures every day, and my eyes are red." The maid spoke out on the side, and the young lady spent a lot of thought every day in order to please Mrs. Su.

"Let's sit down again, the wind is rare and comfortable today. Go back and bring the sutras and copy them here today. Song Mengtong shook his head, his eyes only staring at the koi fish competing for fish food in the pool.

"But Miss copied ...... last night"

"Go, you still don't listen to me?" Song Mengtong interrupted her words coldly, and she was determined not to change her mind.

"Yes......" The master's words could not be disobeyed, and the maid could only obey the order and turn away, and knelt on the ground after walking a few steps.

"I've seen the old lady."

Mrs. Su was silent, and Mother Qin waved her hand to signal her to leave here.

Song Mengtong nervously fiddled with the hem of her skirt and bowed slightly: "I have seen the old lady, Mengtong disturbed the interest." ”

After finishing speaking, he left with a white face, and he wanted to stop talking, and there was still a little compromise.

Mrs. Su sat down on the stone chair directly: "I heard Ling'er say that you can order tea?" ”

Song Mengtong paused slightly when he heard this, and his face couldn't hide the joy, his persistence during this time was finally not in vain.

"It's just a small skill of carving insects, and I'm thirsty compared to the old lady. If you don't dislike it, Mengtong will be ugly. ”

As he spoke, he fiddled with the tea cup on the table.

Old Mrs. Su's mind was not on her movements, and the maid and what she had just said could be heard clearly. The Buddhist scriptures that are sent every day know from the handwriting that they are very attentive.

Unlike the Buddhist scriptures copied by Su Xiangsi, none of them are complete.

Other people's daughters are more attentive than their own granddaughters, and they really raised a white-eyed wolf.

Looking at Song Mengtong's eyes, there is indeed an obvious black green, which should be because he stayed up late to copy Buddhist scriptures.

"Old lady, please use it."

The tea cup was gently pushed in front of her, and the flash of hope in Song Mengtong's eyes did not escape the scrutiny of Mrs. Su.

He took a sip and nodded, "Okay." ”

The gentle breeze blowing from the lake carried the fragrance of lotus flowers, which made Song Mengtong feel comfortable and suppressed the pride in her heart. The maid looked at the past from afar and only felt that the young lady was bitter, and the old lady was finally willing to talk to the young lady.

It was Ning Tingting who cooked tonight, and Li Qinse praised it for being good and appetizing after tasting it. The mother spoke, and Su Xiangsi naturally gave some reward.

When I came out of Li Qinse's house, I saw Ning Tingting still sprinkling insect repellent powder in the corner of the yard, diligent and diligent, a loyal servant.

"Jinchen comes frequently, don't let her get close to my house."

"Catkins know. I heard that Miss Song and the old woman talked about Buddhist scriptures very well. ”

Su Xiangsi's face was not shocked, Song Mengtong would be able to please the old lady sooner or later, faster than she expected.

"By the way, Tanabata is coming, right?"

"Miss is confused, isn't she? There are two days left. ”

Su Xiangsi nodded clearly, and Mrs. Su would let her out soon.
