[Chapter 4, Volume 4]

Section 91 Chapter 84 Informed

"Old lady, master, the apricots and peaches beside the third lady have arrived." Lian Rong, who was guarding outside the door, saw that Mei'er was walking here with the two of them, and hurriedly entered the house to return.

"You two stand next to each other first, and then continue to go back to the courtyard of the third miss to serve the third miss, just say that I saw that there were few people waiting around the third miss, so I specially dialed over." The old lady thought for a moment, and then said to the mother-in-law and the mother-in-law.

"Back to the old lady, the slaves and maids know what to do." Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang bowed their heads and took two steps back to the left.

When Xing'er and Tao'er entered the door, they had already seen Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang standing aside with low eyebrows. The two of them were temporarily sent by the old lady to the third lady to serve the third lady. Originally, the third lady thought that these two mothers-in-law would rely on the old and sell the old, pointing and pointing. If this is the case, the third lady also plans to give them some hard food and let them send them back. Who knows, these two mothers-in-law are quite acquainted, they don't say a word, they don't do much, they do whatever they are told, and An An stays by the side of the third lady, which makes the third miss feel a lot more at ease.

"Slave Xing'er (Peach) to the old lady, please be safe." The two didn't dare to think about it, and after entering the house and walking a few steps, they saluted.

"Get up."

"Old lady Xie, sir."

"Originally, there should be four big girls around the third girl, but it's just a matter of buying people, and because many things have been delayed, it's hard for you to let the two of you serve first for the time being." The old lady gave a sweet date first, and praised the apricots and peaches.

"Thank you for the old lady's compliment, the slaves and maids don't dare to take it." The two of them said modestly.

"What's wrong with that. Naturally, you have to reward you for your merit, and when you go down, you will receive ten taels of silver, and you will be regarded as an old body to reward the two of you for taking care of the third lady on weekdays. The old lady smiled kindly.

"Thank you, old lady, for the reward." Xing'er has been by the old lady's side for so many years, so she naturally knows this reward, and after they take it, the main topic is coming.

Sure enough, after they thanked them, the old lady spoke again: "I asked you to come over this time, that is, I want to ask your young lady how she is doing in the villa these days?" ”

"Back to the old lady, the prince has arranged it very properly, and the young lady has been living a very good life these days." Apricot replied.

"Then why did you come back all of a sudden? I didn't say hello to Fuchu beforehand. ”

"Last night, the young lady didn't say anything when she went to bed. Early this morning, he suddenly ordered Tao'er to find the carriage and let the slave and maid take people to pack their luggage. Apricot lowered her head and continued.

"Then this morning, what is wrong with the third lady?" Seeing that he couldn't hear the answer for a long time, Master Lin asked.

Xing'er remembered all the things she found when she entered the door in the morning, and she didn't know how to speak, so she simply kept silent.

"Back to the master, the third lady seems to be doing it casually, and she has told the slaves and maids many times before about returning home. Miss Xu is the third lady misses the old lady and the old man too much, so she can't wait to come back today. Seeing that Xing'er didn't speak, Tao'er didn't know why, so she had to step forward and reply.

When Tao'er saw Mengyu, Mengyu had already covered the abnormality on her face with fine powder, and she naturally didn't find anything. But when Xing'er entered the house, the water in the basin and the lost coat were not mentioned, and the tear stains on Mengyu's face and red and swollen eyes were enough to surprise her at that time.

"Apricot, have you found anything?" After all, Xing'er used to be the person next to the old lady, and Xing'er's expression at this moment was enough to make the old lady suspicious.

Did she say it or not? Apricot has been thinking about it since the old lady's first question. Although she used to be a maid who came out of the old lady's house, after following the third lady, the third lady also took special care of her. Being able to meet such a kind master is also a blessing in her life. She is the same age as the third miss, and if the third miss marries, she must also be a dowry maid. Does she want to offend the current master for the sake of the former master?

Although the third lady is still young, what she can say and do is not at all like a little girl who is almost fourteen years old. The third lady must know what she is doing, and she must know what to do best for her. Now the master of the mansion loves Miss Three so much, if Miss Three wants to say it, she will naturally ask the old lady for help. If the third miss doesn't want to say it, I'm afraid that if she says it at this moment, the third miss will definitely blame her in her heart, but it will be self-defeating.

Xing'er, who had made up her mind, didn't dare to delay, and stepped forward and replied: "Today, the slave maid waited for the third lady to get up, and everything was just like usual, without any abnormality." Maybe it's just that when the third lady dreamed at night, she dreamed of the old lady, so she was so eager to come back. After all, the third lady is still young, and it is the first time that she has been away from home for so long. ”

"The third girl has been away for so long, and I miss it very much, but she returned home so suddenly, I was afraid that something would happen." The old lady didn't believe in Xing'er's words.

"Please also ask the old lady to rest assured, if something happens to the third lady, presumably the third lady will definitely tell the old lady." Xing'er paused and continued: "The third lady also said just now that she had been away from the house for so long, and all the things in the house were called to the old lady. When I came back this time, seeing that the old lady's improvement was not good, I decided to go to the council early tomorrow morning to share the old lady's worries. ”

"I've always known that she's caring, let's call her later tomorrow, it's been hard for her all the way." The old lady said comfortingly.

"The slave knows." Finally, the old lady stopped pestering the third lady about her sudden return home, and Xing'er was greatly relieved.

Finally, the old lady and the old man let the two of them go, and after Xing'er and Tao'er got the reward from the lotus rong, they both went back to the room.

"Sister Xing'er, early this morning, Miss San's eyes are red and swollen, right?" Tao'er looked down at the road under her feet all the way, and suddenly asked out loud.

Xing'er was already startled again because of the old lady's nervous heart: "It turns out that you can see it, so why didn't you mention it just now." ”

"When I entered the house, the lady had already finished putting on her makeup. I didn't see anything other than a slight redness and swelling of my eyes. It's just that on weekdays, Miss doesn't like to rub powder very much, but today's Miss makeup is very thick with fine powder. I don't mention it because Miss has always been very good to me, so I naturally want to stand on Miss's side. Tao'er whispered as she walked.

Apricot hesitated for a moment, not knowing if she should tell Momo about it. However, now that Tao'er has seen it, it is a bit unreasonable for her to hide it and not say it. Besides, there are some things that she still has to ask Tao'er for verification: "After the two of us went to bed last night, do you remember, did I pour out the water in the basin?" ”

Tao'er raised her head and nodded, "I watched you go and drain the water from the basin before closing the door." ”

"But today, when I waited for the young lady to get up, I found that there was still water in the basin." Xing'er looked at Momo and said affirmatively.

"How so?" Momo had an incredulous look on her face.

Xing'er shook her head and continued: "Not only that, I obviously remember that I took away the clothes that Miss Yesterday changed and put the coat that Miss Today was wearing on the hanger, but when Miss Waiter got up today, the coat was suddenly gone. I asked Miss, but Miss didn't answer me. Later, when I was packing, I didn't see the dress again. ”

"That doesn't work, the clothes are still disappearing out of thin air?" Tao'er couldn't figure out what to think, and she began to be confused.

"At that time, the young lady had just gotten up and had not yet put on her makeup. When I asked Miss, she had obvious tear stains on her face and her eyes were red. Xing'er's tone became more and more worried.

Hearing this, Tao'er immediately took a deep breath: "Neither of us had a vigil last night, and the room we stayed in was not as close to the Lin Mansion as it was from Miss's room. Could it be that after Miss Cheng went to bed yesterday, what else happened? It was hard for Tao'er to imagine what happened to the tears on the third lady's face and the loss of her coat.

"If Miss refuses to say this, I'm afraid we won't know."

How can they know about such a thing......
