Chang Lu has been really busy lately, but she feels very down-to-earth. The eldest lady has begun to have her own plans, and she no longer feels that the future is dark.

She knew that Madame seemed to have something to hide from Madame and Mother Shen, but she didn't let her reveal anything about Madame. She was secretly anxious in her heart, although the two didn't want to worry about each other, but the strength of the two strands of rope twisted into a rope was always greater than the strength of each other.

But Chang Lu didn't say much.

When she came to the east wing, Mo Weiyu had a solemn expression and motioned for her to close the doors and windows to prevent anyone from eavesdropping. How could Chang Lu not know, nodded slightly, closed the doors and windows, and before she came, she had already used the excuse to open all the maids nearby.

"Chang Lu, how is the matter I asked you to check recently?" Mo Weiyu asked directly.

"Miss, I have accepted a few people from the rivers and lakes according to your instructions, and they are investigating in the past few days~ . There is no news from Madame's attendant yet, but there is some news from your side, Miss. It is said that at that time, when you were just sick, Zhen's used the excuse of poor care to send out the housekeeper Fan's and the eldest maid Bi'er Yu'er.

It is said that after Bi'er left the mansion, she was sold to the north, but Yu'er was bought by a merchant surnamed Wang in the capital. But Yu'er hanged herself in the Wang family for only a dozen days. On the way to the north, Bi'er stumbled and fell into the Chang River and drowned.

As for Fan, she suddenly appeared in Jiangning Mansion and beat the drum in front of the mansion to sound grievances. However, the governor of the government did not pay attention to it, and asked his officials to expel her. Soon after, Fan died of illness. ”

Mo Weiyu's heart trembled slightly, and she sighed: "It seems that my illness is related to Bi'er and Yu'er, if it weren't for their hands, I think when we first entered the mansion, those people from the Zhen family wouldn't have been able to get close at all." As for Fan's mother, it seems that she knows everything and will be killed. ”

Chang Lu looked at her painful expression and couldn't bear it.

Fortunately, Mo Weiyu didn't feel sad for a long time, and soon she raised her head again: "You have done a good job in Chang Lu's matter, continue to investigate, there will always be fish that slip through the net, there will always be some clues, and there will always be evidence that they have harmed my mother and me." ”

"But the most important thing now is that Lord Guogong was ordered by the emperor to rush to southern Xinjiang to fight the enemy. The Guogong Mansion is once again the Ponzi who has the final say. Tomorrow, Zhen and Mo Xinyao will come to the banquet, and the young lady must be careful, maybe they have some bad ideas. ”

Chang Lu said with a resentful expression on his face, Mo Weiyu remembered that Chang Lu's husband was a steward in southern Xinjiang. She didn't mention her worries at all, and couldn't help but say in her heart: "Chang Lu is looking for more people, go to southern Xinjiang to inquire, I believe that Manager Chen will have news soon." ”

Chang Lu's face was stunned, she knew that the eldest lady was also concerned about her family affairs, and she was already very grateful.

"What bad idea are they trying to fight? Hmph, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, I will not let them succeed. Mo Weiyu said, her eyes were very strong.

The two discussed for a while before they dispersed.

The next morning, Miaozhu beside Pang Zi came to Hanlian Courtyard, and as soon as she entered the courtyard gate, a sharp little maid came forward to talk.

"Sister Miaozhu, you're here, it's been a long time, you've become beautiful again, and I don't know what kind of elixir you've taken to get older and younger, so we're shameless to be sisters."

"Little Nizi, will she be poor and sweep the yard? Look at the lotus flowers in this Hanlian courtyard are blooming well this year, presumably because of the new master, look at the pink lotus swaying. Miaozhu raised her slightly noble head. Raise your delicate face.

Saying that, her pair of red phoenix eyes slanted at the lotus flowers in the pond, and her eyes flickered.

When Xiao Russia heard this, he immediately laughed and said: "It's just a wild chief, this pond is overflowing with silt and drying up day by day." If you don't clean it up, it's not like raising wild lotus. Even if the flowers bloom, they will not bear melons. ”

Miaozhu smiled slightly: "Are all your masters up?" ”

As she spoke, more maids and women greeted her, and when they saw Miaozhu's faces, they smiled and talked to her.

Miaozhu is the eldest maid who serves the eldest lady, and she is very decent among these subordinates. And these subordinates in Hanlian Courtyard are all third-class maids selected from some rough maids in the outer courtyard, kitchens in the inner courtyard, firewood rooms, etc. It's just because Yuan rejected Pang Zi's kindness to stuff a big girl around her.

Sure enough, so far, except for the few close-fitting girls brought by the Yuan family, others have never been allowed to get close. Even though everyone knows what Madame means, they really can't find a chance, that Yuan and Eldest Miss Mo Weiyu are really cautious people.

But even if it is rare to find anything to say, once there is some abnormal phenomenon, the maids and women in this courtyard rush to ventilate and report the news.

Therefore, Mo Weiyu's madness has been greatly improved now, and the news that Mrs. Yuan's condition has gradually stabilized was naturally told to Pang by Miao Zhu and others, and Pang Zi deliberately passed the news to the Zhen family of the Hou Mansion.

Now Zhen's house is a guest probably because of this incident. The maids who were able to deliver the news to Miaozhu got a lot of silver bounties, so who wouldn't be stammered. After all, the owner of this courtyard is an outsider, and whoever is in charge of the Guogong Mansion has the final say, and everyone is like a mirror in their hearts, and besides, the mother and daughter never believe in them.

So when Dian Er cautiously told Mo Weiyu what he had just seen and heard, Mo Weiyu sighed slightly: "Each is its own master, when we were in the Hou Mansion before, we were still calculated by the people who served us for many years, and we were framed by our loved ones, let alone now." Even if we scatter our daughters, they may not be sincere, so we have to guard against it from the beginning, but under the eaves of others, we are cautious, and we will always be caught by people and have the opportunity to peep. Fortunately, my mother and I were cured, and I didn't want to hide it anymore. In this way, some people will not be able to sit still and show their feet. ”

Dian'er helped Mo Weiyu put on a veil and got up to the hall of the main room.

Miaozhu was already sitting on the vermilion lacquer chair. Mother Yuan, who was sitting in the main hall, was greeting her.

"Mrs. looked very good, our wife was relieved to hear about it, and sent someone to send a letter to Grandpa Guo, and I heard that Miss Weiyu was also very good, which is really gratifying."

Miaozhu didn't hide that she and Pang Zi knew about them, after all, she was also the original lady of the Hou Mansion, and there was no need to say much about smart people, which yard didn't have the eyes of the housewife. What's more, they only care about their condition, which makes sense.

Yuan smiled and thanked: "Thank you Duchess for your concern, it is all because our mother and daughter have been carefully cared for in the house, and their bodies will recover so quickly." ”

Miaozhu had a slight hint of ridicule in her expression, but then smiled and said, "Mrs. Yuan and the eldest lady are also blessed people. Today I came to be happy about something, the hibiscus in the back garden is blooming tightly, the peony is also in full swing, the wisteria is fragrant, and the back garden is full of flowers.

Our wife was very happy to see it, today the Guogong Mansion set up a flower viewing banquet, and many wealthy families in the capital came.

Our wife specially explained that if Mrs. Yuan went out to show up at her convenience, she was afraid that you would stay in the yard all day and be bored.

Grandpa Guo will hold a family recognition banquet in the future, and these people will inevitably be invited to the banquet, and Mrs. Yuan happened to be familiar with it first this time. In southern Xinjiang all year round, you should go out and walk around more. ”

Miaozhu thought to herself, no wonder Mrs. was very uneasy, she always felt that this mother and daughter were not ordinary people, since they came to the Guogong Mansion, the second lady of the Hou Mansion hinted that she should be relieved and leave them alone, as if the mother and daughter were hopeless, although the grandfather of the country invited some famous doctors, but Pang Zi asked in private, saying that the illness of the two was very tricky, and he did not dare to guarantee that the doctor would be cured. After Grandpa Guo left, the Hanlian courtyard also changed the decoction according to his wife's wishes, and actually let them get better.
