Huo Zhirou said the whole thing from beginning to end, although it was not paraphrased in the original words, but it finally made the general meaning clear.

Zhou frowned, "How could Huo Changjin know that I was pregnant?" ”

Zhou had a faint feeling in his heart that Huo Sijin seemed to know a lot of secret things. The one in her belly is just over a month old, and the fetal image is still unstable, so she has not announced it to the public, and even the Marquis of Jingbei has not told her, except for Huo Zhirou, only the maids and doctors around her know, where did Huo Changjin learn about it?

"Mother, shouldn't there be someone betraying the master around you?" Huo Zhirou subconsciously suspected that someone close to the Zhou family had leaked the secret.

Hancui, the maid who was waiting on the side, immediately knelt on the ground, "Please be aware of Madame, the slave will never betray you." ”

She is the eldest girl next to Zhou, and that day Zhou was unwell and asked the house doctor to check the pulse, and it was the house doctor she went to ask, so she was the only one who knew about Zhou's pregnancy. If you want to say that there is a maid who betrays the master by Zhou's side, the first person who will be suspected is her.

Hancui didn't wait for Zhou's speech, she knelt on the ground and shouted grievances first, she had followed Zhou's side for many years, and she felt her teeth tremble when she thought about Zhou's methods of dealing with her subordinates.

Huo Zhirou's eyes purred, and she glanced at Hancui condescendingly, "Madame hasn't spoken yet, you are in a hurry to shout grievances, aren't you a thief!" ”

Han Cui secretly complained in her heart, this little master is much more difficult to speak than Zhou, although Zhou is ruthless, but she is still reasonable, but this Miss Huo is an arrogant master, once she determines something, it is difficult to reverse.

"Please second miss Mingjian, the slave maid has always been loyal to Mrs. and Second Miss, and will never betray." Han Cui didn't dare to shout grievances in front of Huo Zhirou, but set her eyes on the Zhou family, "Madam, you know, the slave's mother's brother and sister-in-law are all working in the Hou Mansion, even if they borrow the slave's great courage, the slave and the maid dare not betray you, Mrs. ”

She is the son of the Marquis of Jingbei, once she betrays the master, then she will definitely affect her family, and she will not be the only one who will be driven out of the mansion at that time. They were originally lowly slaves, but once they were driven out of the Hou Mansion, they were reduced to the lowest slaves, and at worst they were sold into Goolan Washe, and the end was unprecedentedly miserable.

The low-level lowly slaves and the big maids in the Hou Mansion want to compare, and they have their own weights.

However, Huo Zhirou, who has always been pampered, doesn't think so, but she feels that the more this is the case, the more likely Hancui is to betray the master, "You are a slave of the Huo family, do you think that my mother has not given birth to a son for a long time, and in the future, there will still be the eldest young master Huo Changjin in the Jingbei Hou Mansion to inherit it, so you are busy stuttering?" ”

"Say!" Huo Zhirou slammed the table and roared angrily.

Han Cui was so shocked that her heart was about to jump out, and her kneeling legs instantly weakened, "The slave really didn't betray, the second lady is clear, and the lady is clear......"

Han Cui was not the only one who was shocked, Zhou was also taken aback, and hurriedly covered her stomach, Rao She didn't expect Huo Zhirou to come out like this.

Hancui knelt on the ground, kowtowing incessantly, repeating Fang Cai's words incessantly. At this moment, fortunately, she is still interesting and reasonable, and she knows that the slightest mistake will lead to misunderstanding, so she does not dare to say anything else, she can only repeat that there is no betrayal, please Madame to see and so on.

"Don't say it yet!" Huo Zhirou was angry, her anger went up, and her cheeks turned even redder, "Miss Ben doesn't cry when you see the coffin, come and drag it out to beat ......"

"Alright." Zhou stopped it in time, waved his sleeves, and motioned for everyone else to go out, and Han Cui breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hancui, you are the big girl next to Mrs. Ben, when the doctor came to check the pulse, you were the only one who served by Mrs. Ben's side, how the news leaked, Mrs. Ben still doesn't know, but you are a big girl, you are guilty of dereliction of duty, temporarily fine you half a month's money, give you three days, find out who leaked the news, otherwise you will be punished."

Zhou's words were reasonable, although Hancui was fined half a month's money, but he couldn't say the word wronged, and it was much better to be fined half a month's money than to be beaten, so he hurriedly nodded and responded, "Yes, the slave will go and check." ”

Han Cui withdrew, Huo Zhirou looked unhappy, "Mother, how can you believe the words of a cheap maid so easily, who knows if she lied to you." ”

Huo Zhirou was pampered and raised since she was a child, so she has developed a self-respecting personality since she was a child, but whenever she believes in things, she feels that it must be like this, and there is no possibility of change.

Zhou stroked her still flat abdomen, and said in her heart that she really spoiled Huo Zhirou. Zhou herself is well versed in the way of being a wife and concubine, but she doesn't want her daughter to suffer from the sufferings she has suffered, so she has never taught Huo Zhirou these things, and now it seems that this will harm her.

"Rou'er, you heard my mother say that my mother didn't fully believe in Hancui, otherwise my mother wouldn't have fined her for monthly money."

Huo Zhirou disagreed, "Mother, you still said that you don't believe Hancui, it's just half a month's money, what kind of punishment is this." ”

How much money a subordinate can have a month is just a matter of a few taels of silver.
