Woe to the east.

Of course, this calamity refers to Miss Zhu San, so the east leads to ......

The second aunt stretched out her finger and pointed to the upper courtyard where the eldest lady lived, and smiled at Mother Shu.

The next day, the second aunt invited Miss Zhu San to visit the garden by starting out.

Miss Zhu San still had lingering palpitations about what she overheard last night, and thought about whether to report to Yu Shiyi so that he could take precautions against the second aunt, but thinking of the second aunt's gloomy face, as well as her promise of her glory and wealth, and Yu Shiyi's attitude of ignoring herself, Miss Zhu San hesitated.

Now, the second aunt invited her to visit the garden for no reason, did she know anything?

Thinking of this, Miss Zhu San couldn't help but tremble.

She pretended to be sick and weak, and said to Liu Ye: "I'm not feeling well, you tell your aunt that you can't accompany her to the garden." ”

Seeing Miss Zhu San's stupid appearance, Liu Ye was very ashamed in her heart.

She replied lightly: "The second aunt is different now, there is no shortage of people to accompany the garden, the slave maid heard that there are many wives of school-age girls in the city who have come to the second aunt recently. Third Miss, aren't you in a hurry? Although the young master is sick and weak, many people are still rushing to take the position of young grandmother. ”

There is no need for Liu Ye to remind her, Miss Zhu San also knows.

If it hadn't happened last night, she would have been patting her second aunt's ass, and now at this time......

Miss Zhu San hesitated a little, but in the end she couldn't hold back her yearning for glory and wealth, and under the service of Liu Ye, she had a good meal and hurried to the garden.

When passing by the lotus pond, Liu Ye stopped, pointed to a delicate lotus flower blooming by the pond, and said to Miss Zhu San: "Third Miss, look at this lotus flower, is it blooming beautifully?" Seeing that Miss Zhu San nodded absentmindedly and echoed a few words, Liu Ye's eyes rolled, and she continued: "Second Aunt usually likes this kind of fresh plaything the most, if you personally pick the flowers and give them to the second aunt, I think your weight in the second aunt's heart will be heavier." You may not know that the young master seems to be a little dissatisfied with you, but thanks to the second aunt's maneuvering, this has saved you, are you ......" The unfinished words have been revealed.

Miss Zhu San knew that Yu Shiyi was not satisfied with her.

But she didn't dare to put all her hopes on the second aunt who was a femme fatale, but in addition to this path, did she have any other choice?

Thinking of this, Miss Zhu San couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

That's it, anyway, there is no way horizontally and vertically, so it's better to pick up the break in front of you, maybe there's a way out, isn't the conversation of the second aunt heard by her? She has this handle, the second aunt should have some scruples about her!

The more she thought about it, the more feasible she felt, Miss Zhu San lifted the hem of her skirt and stretched out her hand to hook the lotus flower that was blooming beautifully.

The lotus flower seems to grow on the shore, and she can pick it up as soon as she stretches out her hand, but when Miss Zhu San puts it into action, the reality is not like this, half of her body is hanging out, but she can't even touch the petals, so anxious that her forehead is sweating.

Seeing that the time agreed with the second aunt was approaching, Miss Zhu San was anxious, straightened up, turned to Liu Ye and said, "You go down and pick the lotus flower for me." Seeing Liu Ye's reluctance, Miss Zhu San promised her a golden hairpin and a pair of golden bells.

Liu Ye pursed her lips and thought to herself, when you are buried in the lotus pond, can those good things be without me?

Then, Liu Ye smiled and said: "Third Miss, as the saying goes, courtesy is light and affectionate, and you can personally pick it to show your respect for the second aunt, let the slave maid pick it for you, if the second aunt knows, your hard work will be in vain, maybe someone will take advantage of the gap to say that your various things are not in front of the second aunt, this is more than worth the loss, right?" To put it bluntly, the meaning of the words is not to go, not to go, not to go.

Although Miss Zhu San was a little stupid, she was not so stupid that she couldn't hear the meaning of Liu Ye's words.

She was angry, but she had no choice but to say: "My clothes have just been made, and it is a waste to go into the water like this, you go and help me find a wooden stick with a hook." ”

Liu Ye's eyes rolled, his heart was unwilling, and he reluctantly left.

After the others left, Miss Zhu San tried to pick the lotus flower that was blooming brightly.

Because she was thinking about picking lotus flowers with all her heart, Miss Zhu San was careless, her feet slipped, and her body threw herself into the lotus pond.

Miss Zhu San was flustered, looking at the pool water that was shining brightly by the sun right now, she secretly screamed in her heart, and once again felt the terrifying feeling of death approaching. Because as far as she knew, this lotus pond was not shallow, enough to drown a child about ten years old, not to mention that she didn't know anything about water, and there was no one else around, so she knew very well that she was going to finish playing, and she especially regretted that she had opened the willow leaf and asked her to hook something.

Just as her hands were fluttering in disorder, trying to grasp everything around her that could support her body to slide down, her hands were suddenly pulled by a pair of thick hands with thick calluses, and with a force, she was out of danger at once, and her body lay backwards.

Miss Zhu San lay on the soft grass, gasping for breath and shedding tears for the rest of her life.

Seeing that Miss Zhu San was so cowardly, the person who rescued her couldn't help but snort coldly, and said: "Just like you, you still expect to eat fragrant and spicy food in the future, in my opinion, you might as well plunge yourself into this lotus pond and reincarnate in a rich and noble family." After speaking, he sat next to Miss Zhu San, handed her a handkerchief, and motioned her to wipe her tears.

Miss Zhu San took it blankly, looked up at the person who came, and it turned out to be Mother Zhang!

"You? Aren't you locked up in the upper house with the eldest lady? How did it end up here? Miss Zhu San couldn't help but move her body, hoping to stay away from Mother Zhang, she was afraid that she would hurt herself, and completely forgot that if it wasn't for Mother Zhang's rescue just now, she would have gone underground to drink tea with King Yama.

Zhang's mother was very disdainful of Miss Zhu San's brainlessness.

But he still suppressed his impatience and explained, "Why am I here? I'm afraid I'll have to ask your aunt why she let me be here. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Miss Zhu San asked in astonishment.

She had an answer in her heart, but because this answer was too terrifying, she was forced to press it in the bottom of her heart.

Mother Zhang looked at Miss Zhu San's stunned appearance, snorted coldly, and said: "I don't mean it, I guess you already have a number in your heart, I have already made it clear here, you can do it yourself in the future!" After speaking, he walked to the side of the lotus pond, stretched out his hand and pulled the lotus leaf next to him, so that the lotus flower that Miss Zhu San wanted to pick was closer to him, leaned forward slightly, picked the lotus flower at once, turned around and handed it to Miss Zhu San, and said: "This is for you, I hope you will learn to be smart in the future, otherwise, you don't know how to die." ”

Miss Zhu San took it in a daze and watched Zhang's mother leave.

When she reacted, Zhang's mother was already a hundred meters away from her, she lifted the lotus flower, immediately called Zhang's mother, and asked, "Why are you helping me?" ”

She didn't understand, she didn't understand that Mother Zhang would save her and pick lotus flowers for her.

Zhang's mother turned her head slightly, and said with something in her words: "Because someone wants to cause trouble, I don't want to see my wife be entangled by you, an unlucky ghost, you should be careful with your second aunt in the future." If I hadn't rescued you, I'm afraid you would have become a lonely soul in the lotus pond. After that, no longer talking to Miss Zhu San, Zhang's mother left quickly and went to the upper courtyard.

Miss Zhu San sat on the ground, looking at Zhang's mother's distant back in a daze.

Just as she was waking up and about to get up, she only heard the voice of the willow leaves behind her calling her, "Third Miss, the slave maid has found the hook, and she will help you pick lotus flowers immediately." There was a little eagerness in his voice, he was very excited, and while speaking, he touched Miss Zhu San's back with the tip of the hook intentionally or unintentionally, as if he was gesturing something.

Miss Zhu San jumped up suddenly in fright, kept a safe distance from Liu Ye, stretched out her hand to block her advance, and stammered, "You...... Don't come here, if you dare to come again, I'll shout for help! ”

Liu Ye was stunned, but quickly reacted and said, "Third Miss, what are you talking about?" ”

Seeing that Liu Ye was approaching step by step, she didn't listen to her at all, Miss Zhu San hurriedly lifted her skirt and ran away.

Seeing this, the face of the willow leaf is gloomy.

Just now, she left under the pretext of leaving and asked Zhang's mother to come, just to bring trouble to the east and make Miss Zhu San's soul disappear in the lotus pond today.

Unexpectedly, just now, when Miss Zhu San was about to fall into the lotus pond, Mother Zhang reached out to save her, and she didn't know what to say, which made Miss Zhu San's face blue and white for a while, and seeing her was more like a ghost.

She couldn't help but secretly guess, could it be that Miss Zhu San knew? Or did Zhang's mother tell her to be careful?

As soon as these questions popped up, Liu Ye shook his head and vetoed them.

Mother Zhang didn't know the second aunt's plan at all, so how could she warn Miss Zhu San? Besides, Miss Zhu San is so stupid, not to mention, the only thing that can be explained is that Miss Zhu San's brain is convulsive, and she doesn't know what she is doing, maybe it was the incident that almost fell into the lotus pond just now that scared her.

Miss Zhu San looked back as she ran, she was afraid that she would be caught by Liu Ye.

Fortunately, Willow Leaf didn't catch up.

She hid in a rockery, her body clinging to the rockery, and she wanted to embed her body in the rockery.

After calming down quietly, Miss Zhu San couldn't help but slowly slid down against the stone wall and cried silently.

What should she do? How can I find a way out for myself?
