"Naturally, the vinegar county lord loves you." Lu glanced at Zheng Yangyang lovingly, and said to Zheng Lingyi.

"The ninth sister has served the county lord for the longest time. No one else is jealous of my sister, why should my sister find vinegar to eat? Zheng Lingyi looked at Zheng Yangyang in confusion, his face full of sincere confusion.

Lu Nong picked up Zheng Lingyi's shoes and came back, and Yue Gui took them in to Zheng Lingyi.

Lu Nong glanced at the door, and waited in the courtyard as he should.

Lu Shi saw Lu Nong's figure flashing by the door, Zheng Lingyi was bending down to put on shoes, she seemed to be very used to Lu Nong serving by her side, even if she knew that Lu Nong was the person sent by Lu Shi, she didn't reject it very much.

"Is it okay for Midori to be by your side?" Lu Shi suddenly asked.

Zheng Lingyi put on embroidered shoes and said very naturally: "Sister Lunong is meticulous and proper, and she serves very well." ”

Lu Shi nodded with satisfaction, looked at Zheng Yangyang again, and said, "How is Qingshu waiting for you?" ”

Lu Shi's words meant something, Zheng Yangyang had already concealed something in this matter, and he was even more shocked when he heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Qingshu is naturally good, how can there be anything wrong with the person given by Mrs.?" ”

Lu Shi snorted lightly, as if smiling but not smiling, she raised her eyes and glanced at Yuegui, who was already standing by the door, and covered the door after taking a step.

Zheng Lingyi only felt that it was dark in the room, and suddenly someone was lifted by the collar, and the placket of her clothes was strangled by her throat, making her breathless, and when she was feeling depressed and painful, she was dragged hard and fell at Lu's feet.

Yuegui looked at Zheng Lingyi, who was coughing and wheezing desperately, rubbed her wrist, and said in her heart, "It's silent, but it's also jumped a little." ’

I don't know if it was last year or the year before last, Yuegui was still a second-class maid at that time, Zheng Lingyi walked in front of Zheng Yanxian, which made Zheng Yanxian displeased, so she asked Qiao Zhu to pick it up and throw her down the steps.

The flesh didn't hurt, but the bruises on the knees took more than a month to dissipate.

Yuegui witnessed all this at that time, and she only felt shocked, and her heart was a little inexplicably happy.

It turns out that this so-called master is sometimes not as good as a slave.

Although people have grown up, their circumstances have not changed at all, and they are still a little girl who can be bullied by a servant.

Zheng Lingyi lay on the ground and gasped, stroking his throat and trembling gently.

As soon as the breath was even, he asked Lu Shi to kick on his right shoulder, and Zheng Lingyi leaned back.

In order not to hurt the back of her head, she hurriedly pressed her elbow against it, and the bone hit the brick floor, and the sound of 'bang' made Zheng Yangyang feel that her elbow was also painful.

"Ma'am, ma'am." Zheng Lingyi struggled to get up from the ground, took a few steps back in horror, and asked Yuegui to give a heavy push, and fell at Lu's feet again.

Zheng Lingyi asked them to push and push, their heads were already groggy, and they were suddenly picked up by Lu Shi who twisted their ears fiercely, looking at the ruthlessness in her eyes, she felt a lot more sober.

"In the past, my mother really underestimated you, and she had the ability to coax the county lord into obedience, and she was willing to raise your younger brother for you?"

Zheng Lingyi only felt that his ears were hurting and were about to fall, and he couldn't stop saying, "Madam, I don't, I don't." ”

Lu slapped her face one after another, her ears buzzed, and the pain was numb.

Zheng Yangyang watched from the side, and also felt that his whole face was swollen and painful.

Danju came in from the back of the room, and when she walked in from behind, she could already hear the sound in the room.

When she saw Zheng Lingyi's embarrassed appearance with a red and swollen face and bleeding from the corners of her mouth, she just glanced at it and looked away.

"Ma'am, be careful that your hands hurt." Danzhu replaced the cold tea in Lu's hand with a longan rose brew, lowered his eyes and said lightly.

There was also a woman holding a tray behind the screen, Zheng Lingyi glanced weakly, and recognized the unique pine fan on her sideburns.

'Zhang Qiaoniang? Zheng Lingyi said in his heart.

Seeing Danzhu bring out a plate of red bean milk soup from behind the screen, Zheng Lingyi was even more sure, but in the current situation, she had no time to care about Zhang Qiaoniang.

Lu Shi rested his hand and watched Zheng Lingyi sit on the ground, only to feel that most of the depression in his heart had finally dissipated.

She took a sip of the rose brew, and when she saw Zheng Lingyi raise her head, although she looked at herself timidly, she felt that there were thorns in her eyes, and she was inexplicably unhappy, so she smashed the rose brew in her hand at Zheng Lingyi.

The cup smashed into her chest, fell off her, and swirled on the brick floor.

Zheng Lingyi subconsciously blocked his face, and didn't ask the tea to get wet.

Dan Zhu's heart trembled, fortunately, this rose brew is warm and will not burn people.

Zhang Qiaoniang behind the screen also trembled, and said in her heart, "No wonder the thirteenth brother is so stubborn, it started with his mother." ’

Zhang Qiaoniang stood in place for a moment, but left in a panic.

Zheng Lingyi suffered from this plan, the redness on his face was swelling and shiny, and his sideburns were scattered, making him look more and more embarrassed.

Danzhu didn't look at Zheng Lingyi again, but said softly to Lu's family: "Madam, do you want to change the glass." ”

Lu Shi waved his hand at her, looked at Zheng Lingyi, and said, "Come here." ”

Zheng Lingyi trembled, but he didn't dare to disobey, so he had to walk over slowly.

Her embarrassment made Lu Shi a lot happier, Lu Shi stretched out her hand to Zheng Lingyi, she restrained the urge to dodge, and let Lu Shi twist her already red and swollen face.

Zheng Lingyi lowered his eyes and endured patiently, but there was no tear, but his body shrunk and looked extremely frightened.

She knew that Lu Shi liked to see people who were afraid and scared, so she would show Lu Shi.

"How long have you and the Jiang family been planning?" Lu said with a smile.

Zheng Lingyi sobbed in fear and said, "Madam, I don't have it, and neither does my aunt." ”

"That was the county lord's own thoughts?" Lu Shi still smiled and said contemptuously.

Zheng Lingyi's tears crossed her red and swollen face, like the lead of a firecracker burning all the way, and the two pains of swelling and sourness were intertwined, which made her more sober.

"There is a group of finches in the county lord's yard, as well as four dogs, and a pond of fish, which shows that he likes to be lively, otherwise he would not have lived here every year, and he would not have asked his nieces to wait in front of him."

Zheng Lingyi explained honestly, the way she spoke was very wooden, but it was this woodenness that made Lu despise her.

Zheng Ling wants this contempt, the so-called contempt, is that he doesn't care about her.

"What benefits has the county lord given you these days?" Lu leaned back in his chair and relaxed a little.

"A string of bracelets, a pendant of yellow agate, and three plates of pastries." Zheng Lingyi said that he was scared: "I have brought all the pastries to Xiyuan to my aunt and sisters." ”

Lu snorted lightly, looking at Zheng Lingyi's shrinking hands, and couldn't ask anything in his heart.

Anyway, there was still a Qiaoluo in Aunt Hua's hands, and Lu didn't think that he could squeeze much out of Zheng Lingyi.

Thinking of this, she turned her head to Danzhu and said, "Did Aunt Hua ask for anything?" ”

It wasn't until he heard this sentence that Zheng Lingyi really felt scared.

Danzhu replied, "Slave maid go and see." She opened the front door and walked out.

Lu Nong saw the door open in the hall, subconsciously stretched his neck to look, and saw that it was Danzhu, and quickly lowered his head.

The moment the light in the room lit up, Zheng Yangyang unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Zheng Lingyi felt that this light was dazzling, she half-closed her eyes, and said to Lu Shi: "Madam, do you really think that my aunt and I will have any weight in front of the county lord?" ”

Hearing her speak again, Lu Shi glanced at Zheng Yangyang and said with interest: "I heard from your ninth sister that the county lord treats you very well." ”

"Isn't it good for the county lord to treat the ninth sister? In the past, the fourth sister served her a few times, didn't she also get a dowry when she got married? ”

Zheng Lingyi choked and cried, it sounded really wronged.

"Because my wife asked me to serve in front of the county lord, the twelfth sister pushed me. Everyone knows that there are benefits to serving in front of the county lord, and the ninth sister gets the most benefits, why do you always mention me and not herself. ”

Zheng Lingyi didn't want to do this unfortunate thing of dragging people into the water, but now he wanted to remove Lu's eyes from himself, so he could only do so.

"Oh?" Lu Shi glanced at Zheng Yangyang with a smile, she was obviously not as calm as Fang Cai, and said to Zheng Lingyi: "Fifteen! Don't talk nonsense in front of Madame! ”

Because Lu Nong and Qingshu both asked Zheng Yangyang to drive out, the Lu family didn't know anything about what happened to Zheng Yangyang and Zheng Lingyi living in Xiaozhu in the past few days.

Lu Shi suspected that Zheng Yangyang had other plans, and he could only learn from Zheng Lingyi's mouth.

Zheng Lingyi whispered: "Where is the nonsense." ”

One is angry and the other is aggrieved and honest.

Lu naturally believed Zheng Lingyi and said to him: "Tell me, what benefits did your ninth sister get?" ”

Zheng Lingyi glanced at Zheng Yangyang timidly, and said lightly: "Actually, it's nothing." That is, the county lord said that he would give her a generous dowry. ”

This is nothing unusual, Zheng Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief, and Lu Shi said with some disappointment: "That's it? ”

Zheng Lingyi nodded, as if he didn't quite understand what kind of disaster he was about to say would cause to Zheng Yangyang, "A thick dowry, a good family affair." ”

Lu's face turned cold, and Zheng Yangyang hurriedly said: "No, the county lord has not said anything good, fifteenth sister, you yourself are currying favor in front of the county lord, don't talk nonsense." ”

Zheng Lingyi seemed a little embarrassed, and followed Zheng Yangyang's words: "Yes, the ninth sister mentioned it, but the county lord didn't respond." ”

These words added fuel to the fire, Lu Shi looked at Zheng Yangyang with a smile, and his smile was more terrible than anger.

Zheng Yangyang shook his head again and again, pointed at Zheng Lingyi and said, "You were obviously not here at that time, how would you know!" ”

She panicked for a moment and didn't choose what to say, and as soon as this statement came out, it was a foregone conclusion.

Zheng Lingyi explained in a voice: "I listened to the gossip of the maids. ”

The Lu family's attention is no longer on Zheng Lingyi, Zheng Yangyang is the catastrophe.

"Madame, just gossip. I didn't take it seriously, and the county lord didn't take it seriously. ”

Zheng Lingyi seemed to feel that he had caused trouble, and he also echoed Zheng Yangyang, muttering: "Well, gossip, gossip." ”

Zheng Yangyang glanced at her fiercely, and said earnestly to Lu Shi: "Madam, you believe me." ”

These concubines were all restless, which made Lu Shi very irritable.

Tingyu appeared outside the door at this time, whispered a few words to Yuegui, and handed her a post.

Yuegui presented the post to Lu, who opened it and looked at it, and immediately felt good.

It turned out to be a post from the county lord, saying that the daughters of the Lu family would gather in the county lord's mansion in three days, and asked the Lu family to take Zheng Rong'an to the county lord's mansion.

After all, it was a small gathering of female dependents, and the Lu family was specially asked to bring a few more girls, so as not to make Miss Lu feel uncomfortable when she saw Zheng Rongan.

Lu Shi closed the post, his eyes wandered on the faces of Zheng Yangyang and Zheng Lingyi, the thoughts of these concubines are really not simple.

Zheng Lingyi doesn't care about it for the time being, this Zheng Yangyang is old, and there are too many careful thoughts.

Watching her make some clever little moves under her nose, although Lu Shi didn't take it seriously, she felt a little bored after many times.
