Chapter XXVI
Xiao Xiting was slightly stunned, and then raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Yuan, and said with shocked eyes: "Big lady, is this doubting me?" ”
Mrs. Yuan smiled, lowered her eyebrows, lifted her dress and sat down on the side of the couch, took Xiao Xiting's hand and said a little eagerly: "You are too careful, how can I doubt you?" I just wanted to ask if you know about it. ”
"If the eldest lady has said something suspicious, why should she cover it up for herself? I came to the big sister's yard to find out that Fleur was dead, she wasn't on duty tonight, and I shouldn't have seen it, she was supposed to rest in the wing, could it be that I had to go to the wings to see the maid when I got up at night? My maid died, and I was so sad in my heart that I didn't want the eldest lady to doubt me! The more Xiao Xiting spoke, the more excited she became, and in the end, she sobbed in a low voice, which caused Mrs. Yuan to be slightly stunned, and she hurriedly wiped her tears for Xiao Xiting, but Xiao Xiting cried more and more, and finally hugged the quilt and cried until she almost collapsed.
Mrs. Yuan's face was cold, Xiao Xiting has always been gentle and gentle, never overstepping the rules, never saying much, gentle makes people feel as light as cotton wool, but I don't want to be punished at the moment, these words made Mrs. Yuan unable to find fault with half a point, and also made her unable to suspect Xiao Xiting for half a point, but originally Mrs. Yuan did not doubt Xiao Xiting, but Xiao Xiting's sharp words had to make Mrs. Yuan fearful, this seemingly soft little girl did not seem to be so simple.
"Don't blame the eldest lady, my girl has a deep relationship with Fleur since she was a child, plus she has a gentle and kind temperament, she can't see life and death on weekdays, and now she is dying is someone who can be seen every day, and it is reasonable that it is difficult to accept it for a while." Xiao Xiting's ordinary maid Jiu'er said softly, Mrs. Yuan glanced at her, her eyes were full of coldness, and the frightened Jiu'er lowered her head and didn't dare to say anything more.
Mrs. Yuan was silent for a few moments, and the sound of crying in her ears made Mrs. Yuan upset, but reason still suppressed this annoyance, and just pretended to be gentle and said: "You are also frightened, I will send someone to send you back to the courtyard to rest." ”
Mrs. Yuan wanted to get up, but was stopped by Xiao Xiting, Mrs. Yuan turned around and looked, only to see Xiao Xiting's pear blossoms with rain, Chu Chu said pitifully: "Big lady, where is Tianzhu?" ”
is as smart as Mrs. Yuan, how can she not hear that Xiao Xiting wants to return to Tianzhu, but now that the murderer has not been found, Xiao Lanyi and Xiao Qingshi are involved, and it may even be the hands and feet of Fuyuan Houfu, so it is impossible for Mrs. Yuan to really return Tianzhu to Xiao Xiting.
"Sister Ting, I still need to ask Tianzhu some questions, so Tianzhu can only live in my yard for the time being." Mrs. Yuan smiled and said perfunctorily.
Xiao Xiting wiped away the tears on her face violently, and asked solemnly, "What does the eldest lady want to ask Tianzhu?" ”
"About ......" Before the eldest lady finished speaking, Xiao Xiting suddenly interrupted her.
"Is there any information about how Fleur died? Hasn't she already made it clear? I've already died of a personal maid, Tianzhu is also frightened, she needs to recuperate now instead of being questioned, the eldest lady forced her to say something like this, have you ever wondered if Tianzhu's body can stand it? If Tianzhu has a good one, how will I live? Xiao Xiting's words were sincere, not only tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, but also a pair of despair and sadness in her eyes, this emotion even affected Mrs. Yuan, and even she was a little sad.
But Mrs. Yuan didn't care about herself, and her sadness only existed for a moment, so she frowned, and reprimanded with a cold face: "Your little lady is still alive, how can you say such a thing?" ”
Xiao Xiting shook her head, her eyebrows and eyes drooped slightly, and the tears of beans rolled down her hands, her face was full of grievances, and she said in a trembling voice: "Fu Hui and Tianzhu have been with me for many years, can the maid of the eldest lady also be handed over at will?" Fleur's death has kept me awake at night, and if Tianzhu has another bad one, I'm afraid that my body will collapse. ”
Mrs. Yuan's eyebrows drooped slightly, and she finally had a little pity, she also watched Xiao Xiting grow up, even this girl has always been a gentle person, she must be frightened to be able to do this today, and she doesn't want to lose another maid, so she begged to return to Tianzhu, Mrs. Yuan can understand, and Tianzhu over there, it seems that she can't ask anything, she just saw it after getting up at night, the murderer just deliberately used her to attract attention, if Mrs. Yuan really focused all her attention on Tianzhu, I am afraid that it will be like the murderer's intentions.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Yuan sighed lightly and soothed: "As a parent, since I am your mother-in-law, I also have to take care of you, you are so sad now, I can't force you anymore, if you have something in your body, how much pain should I have in my heart, I will send someone to send Tianzhu back, and arrange someone to guard your yard, so that people will not easily sneak into your yard." ”
Xiao Xiting naturally understood that Mrs. Yuan's words were arranged in her yard, but she didn't care, as long as she could ensure Tianzhu's safety, it was enough.
"Why doesn't Mother want to know that Fleur was killed when she got out of the yard?" Suddenly there was a childish child's voice outside the house, Xiao Xiting followed the prestige, only to see Xiao Qingshi slowly walk into the house, his clear eyes were full of coldness, he has always been like this, he is the most cool and calculating person in this house, and he is also the smartest person, he is still young and calculating, which makes Xiao Xiting very dislike him, but Mrs. Yuan likes it tightly, and praises this is the talent of the future general!
"What do you mean by that?" Mrs. Yuan asked in a cold voice with a cold face.
"If Fleur leaves the yard by herself, then the scope will be wide, first of all, she may have left the yard because of herself, or she may have left the yard because of her master." When Xiao Qingshi said this, his eyes fell on Xiao Xiting, and his gaze was a little unfathomable, causing Xiao Xiting to frown and feel a little unhappy.
"Brother thinks I'm going to call Fleur out in the middle of the night?" Xiao Xiting laughed angrily, only feeling that Xiao Qingshi was really talking nonsense, but she was afraid that she was used to being ruthless by Mrs. Yuan, and she was eager to prove herself.
"I didn't say it must be the case, there are many such assumptions, I just mean to search the whole house, maybe there will be some windfall." Xiao Qingshi said, smiled and glanced at Mrs. Yuan, and then at Xiao Xiting, her eyes were full of unclear meaning, Mrs. Yuan hesitated, turned back and glanced at Xiao Xiting deeply, then nodded and agreed to Xiao Qingshi's proposal.
