524 The lump of cotton

"Send it again? You've gotten into such a trouble with the people in the other courtyard, do you think you can still get in? ”

Juan Bi vaguely realized something, and suddenly felt cold all around.

"You've been with me for so many years, but you've learned a lot when you shouldn't...... But what are you? Yan Zhen looked at her, and his voice seemed to be frozen: "Who allowed you to have a dispute with the people in that courtyard?" ”

Curly Bi explained in a trembling voice: "Slave...... The slave wanted to go in and find out...... Although he was a little anxious, he was really thinking about the county lord...... I also hope that the county lord will spare the slave and maid for the sake of the slave and maid's loyalty! ”

Since the county lord's appearance was destroyed, his temperament has become more and more violent, and the original maid in the yard has long been changed...... She is the only one, with her eyelids, and she knows how to please the county lord, so she can stay here forever.

At this time, she couldn't help but regret her earnestness for her meritorious service today and her complacency in recent years.

"I spare you easily, you are only afraid that it will be difficult to remember for a long time." Yan Zhen's tone suddenly became much lighter, and his voice was full of kindness: "I will be punished with twenty lashes." ”

Juan Bi's body stiffened, but he quickly kowtowed: "The slave and maid receive the punishment." ”

Compared with other maids, this punishment is indeed much lighter.

At this time, Yan Zhen suddenly stood up and said to the mother-in-law standing beside him: "Take the whip, I'll do it myself-"

As he spoke, there was a hideous smile in his eyes.

Curly Bi's face suddenly turned a little paler.

The rest of the maids were all silent, and they didn't dare to change even a little in their expressions.

Not long after, a very miserable cry and begging for mercy came out of the courtyard wall, causing the passers-by to change color.

……

At this time, Zhang Meishou had just come to Tian's residence.

Tian was about to make tea, but was stopped by Zhang Meishou in a loud voice: "Don't bother, I came here after eating a belly of tea." ”

Tian put down the teapot and asked with a smile, "Didn't the girl go to the teahouse?" ”

"Not really."

Zhang Meishou didn't say anything to her, but said: "I came this time because I wanted to ask my aunt about something." ”

Hearing this, Tian was a little nervous.

Isn't it time for something to go wrong again?

"Can the aunt recognize the current prince's biological mother, Concubine Yun Li?"

Zhang Meishou asked bluntly, and then carefully noticed the change in Tian's expression.

Tian didn't have too many unusual expressions, only frowned slightly, looking quite confused, and then shook his head.

"I don't know each other, I haven't heard of it before I entered Beijing-I don't know why the girl suddenly asked that?"

"It's nothing, I just met it once by chance, and she is very similar to my aunt's original appearance, I felt a little strange in my heart, so I just came to ask."

"Extremely similar......?"

Tian was slightly stunned.

Zhang Meishou nodded, looked at her and said, "It's really very similar, I even mistook her for an aunt at first." ”

At this time, there was a sudden churning sound of "coo dong coo", and Ah Li's voice came in from outside the door: "Aunt Tian, this medicine is boiling-"

Hearing this, Tian quickly turned around and walked out.

Under the verandah of the hall, the medicine jar on the small stove was slightly shaken by the boiling medicinal juice, and the brown and yellow medicine foam overflowed everywhere.

Tian immediately took a wet cloth towel, staggered the gap in the lid of the medicine jar, and bent down to seal the fire.

But the hand holding the wet cloth towel was trembling slightly, as if the fingertips were numb.

Zhang Meishou walked out with his feet raised, looked at the medicine jar, and asked, "What kind of medicine did my aunt boil?" ”

"It's for the eldest prince." Tian didn't look back, and said with a very reluctant smile: "I don't know how many pictures I have matched, but all of them are in vain." ”

Zhang Meishou glanced at her.

"It's man-made, just do your best."

"The girl is right." Tian raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes that were glistening with tears.

Seeing this, Zhang Meishou didn't stay any longer, explained a few words, and left with Ah Li.

After helping her girl into the carriage, Ah Li glared at Cotton as usual.

Cotton frowned, but couldn't help but ask, "Why do you always stare at me?" ”

He doesn't seem to have done anything to provoke her lately, has he?

Ali grinded her teeth: "......"

Why are you glaring at him?

Hmph - it's not because you can't beat it!

Ah Li didn't say anything, only glared fiercely again, and then got into the carriage.

When passing near Long Street, Ah Li lifted the curtain and glanced out, and asked, "Girl, there is your favorite crab roe crisp shop in front of you, do you want to buy some?" ”

Zhang Meishou wanted to say "no need", but when the words came to his lips, they became: "It's okay." ”

Ah Li hurriedly said happily: "The girl sits in the carriage for a while, and the slave and maid will go back when they go!" ”

She was glad that the girl would be happy to eat more.

Ah Li jumped out of the carriage and walked away as fast as he could.

Cotton stared at her back, still puzzled.

At this time, a girl's voice suddenly came from the carriage behind her.

"Cotton, I have something I want to ask you-"

"Girl, please speak."

"Ah Li seems to be fifteen years old this year, and my mother told me that it is time to pay more attention to her."

Cotton was stunned.

Immediately, he heard the very pleasant voice and asked, "In your opinion, which of the servants in the house is the most reliable?" ”

Cotton replied after a while: "The villain doesn't have much contact with them on weekdays, so he doesn't dare to come up with ideas for such a big matter." ”

Zhang Meishou smiled.

"It's okay, I'm just asking casually, I'll wait for someone to look for it slowly."

After that, no sound came from the carriage.

After waiting for half a cup of tea, Ah Li rushed back with crab roe crisp.

"Girl, it's just out of the pot, and it's still hot!"

Zhang Meishou looked at the grinning girl beside him, and suddenly felt a little emotional.

Her family Ah Li is the most intelligent and capable, but she is a dead eye, and she can only hold that ball of cotton in her eyes for two lifetimes.

If she robs it hard, she can also grab it, but the annoying thing is that only people in this world are not easy to be reluctant.

In the previous life, when Ah Li met cotton in the prince's mansion, cotton was equivalent to having a family, although it was a mess, but it was too late.

Therefore, Ah Li could not speak until her death.

As for cotton, he has always obeyed the rules, and in that case, he has never shown anything.

In this life, it was too late, but she looked at it for a long time, but she didn't see Cotton's intentions.

Today she told him this, that is, to try him, if he really did not want to, she would have to think of another way to tell Ah Li to die as soon as possible.

If he is interested, he can't be cheapened just like that, it depends on how he performs in the future, and when she is satisfied with being a girl, he will pass the test.

All in all, her family Ah Li has to live freely and satisfactorily in everything she says this time.

Zhang Meishou suddenly raised his hand and rubbed Ah Li's head.

The carriage went all the way smoothly and returned to the small Yongfang.

As soon as Zhang Meishou returned to Yu Yuan, he noticed a strange atmosphere all around.

"But what's wrong?" Ah Li asked Ah Dou keenly.
