"Slave maid...... The slave is called the Great Lotus. Da Lian pumped and matched: "Yes...... She is the daughter of a steward of the palace. ”

No wonder, Xia Zhixue had a number in her heart, glanced at the lotus, and the girl stepped forward smartly: "Sister Dalian, don't cry, the prince is angry today, if he sees it, I'm afraid it will be indispensable,"

The lotus coaxed the person back, and Xia Zhixue waited in the same place.

But in half a moment, the lotus trotted back, panting: "I have sent the person back according to the girl's instructions."

"What are you doing running so fast? I don't have anything to worry about," Rou Sheng stepped forward and raised her hand to wipe the sweat from Lotus's forehead.

Lotus hurriedly took a half step back: "Girl, this is unacceptable," If someone else sees it, they will say that she has committed a crime, there is no half of the rules, she knows that the girl is kind-hearted, and she is good to her on weekdays, delicious and fun, and she will be divided into half of him and her when the door is closed. It's just that there are a lot of people in this back garden, in case it is seen by a girl, how good is this, and hurriedly waved her hand: "It's really tormenting the slave."

Xia Zhixue This was a subconscious action, but when she reacted, she realized that she was out of place, so she withdrew her hand and helped the person up with a light smile: "Only do what you do."

"Did the big lotus say why she cried?" Xia Zhixue walked back slowly.

Lotus followed behind: "She won't say anything, but I can guess a few points."

"Oh?"

"This big lotus grew up in the small palace, and is the daughter of the housekeeper Uncle Zhong, although it is better than many serious young ladies, but the degree of food and clothing should not be worse than the others, and it is also a lot higher than us. Uncle Zhong is an old man in the palace, and he is an old woman, and he holds it like a pearl in his palm. This big lotus is good anywhere, but it shouldn't have beaten the prince's idea. Lotus sighed, as if helplessly continued: "Uncle Zhong watched his daughter love love all day long, and thought that he was afraid that the girl would have nothing to rely on after he left, so he wanted the prince to accept her."

Even if the girl in this big family's house is a person in each house, the master said that he would want it, and the life experience of the big lotus is not up or down, and he can make a partial house if he wants to be accepted.

Xia Zhixue knew that this housekeeper loved her daughter, and she could understand: "What did the prince say?"

She just saw that Da Lian looked good, and she was a clever person.

Lotus hugged Xia Zhixue and continued: "I don't know about this, we are just hearsay, I'm afraid that Da Lian saw that the prince and Miss Zhiqiu were in love, and she was unwilling, and she remembered that her life experience was not as good as Miss Zhiqiu, and she felt uncomfortable, so she hid and cried." At my daughter's house, there are always a lot of tears. ”

"Why do I think you can't cry?" At this time, he walked not far from the side courtyard, Xia Zhixue chuckled and turned her head, pinching the little face of the person next to her.

Lotus pretended to be frightened, and said in surprise: "The third lady is making fun of the slave maid, when the slave and maid cry, she is just carrying people behind her back, if you don't believe it, the girl will also go to the rockery tomorrow to see, the slave and maid must be crying there."

Amused by this girl's appearance of playing treasure, Xia Zhixue suddenly became interested: "Lotus, you go and give me a hot pot of wine."

"Yes."

Chess, it's time to take the next step.

……

"Girl, go over and take a look, there's something big going on in the house." The lotus trotted in, with a big pistol hanging between her arms.

Xia Zhixue was holding the soup woman in one hand and writing with the other, and when she heard this, she raised her eyes: "What are you doing in such a hurry?" Hibiscus Garden is running water again? ”

The girl still remembers, "It's late winter now, and it's been so long since the incident in the Hibiscus Garden, or a thorn in her girl's heart, Lotus took the pen from between her fingers, and helped the person to stand up, and tied the plain plum blossom for her, while saying: "It's not the Hibiscus Garden, but it's almost the same, it's the master of the Hibiscus Garden who has an accident."

"What?" Yesterday, the heavy snow stopped, and tomorrow the two sisters will go back to the Hou Mansion for the New Year.

The lotus finger was tied in a flying manner, and he took a new soup woman and stuffed it into Xia Zhixue's hand: "It was said that the one in Furong Garden who slandered Da Lian seduced the prince and pushed people into the lake."

"What?" Xia Zhixue was shocked. In this deep winter, people fall into the lake and lose half their lives if they don't die, Xia Zhiqiu is not crazy? How could you do such a brainless thing? She didn't worry about her safety, all she cared about was the reputation of the Hou Mansion.

"Girl, go over and take a look, there's already a mess in the lobby."

As soon as she opened the door, Xia Zhixue shivered from the sudden cold wind, she looked up at the sky without the sun, and murmured softly: "I'm afraid it's going to change again."

The road was slippery and difficult to walk on snowy days, and she lived in a side courtyard, and the road alone was delayed for a lot of hours, and when she arrived in a hurry, the atmosphere in the lobby had reached its peak.

Ouyang Huaiyu sat in the main seat, his face was pale, he looked at Xia Zhixue, only glanced her up and down slightly, and then stopped making a sound.

Xia Zhiqiu knelt under the hall, his eyes were full of tears, the skirt on his body was stained with a lot of mud, and his eyes were blank.

Uncle Zhong knelt on the other side, glaring angrily, and he couldn't wait to get two holes out of the body of the woman next to him.

"The prince is well." Xia Zhixue saluted and stood aside.

When Xia Zhiqiu heard her voice, he became alive, and his voice was weak: "Third sister, you have to believe your sister, your sister has never done it."

Never done it before? In your previous life, when you did not show your fangs, you said the same thing to me. Xia Zhixue had hatred in her heart, but her face was still calm: "Lord Wang, how can this matter be decided?"

"What? The third lady still wants to intercede for the eldest lady? Although my girl's life is cheap, it is also me and my wife who have fed her mouthful, and now she is in bed and unconscious, and the eldest lady is safe and sound. Uncle Zhong's voice was loud and mixed with sadness.

"Uncle Zhong, I didn't mean that, if my sister is at fault, then she can't be punished lightly." Xia Zhixue's complexion did not change.

Xia Zhiqiu asked people to find Xia Zhixue to ask her to help her, why did she make matters worse?

"Don't make any more trouble!" The water cup on the coffee table that Ouyang Huaiyu slapped shook a few times: "I have ordered someone to invite Master Hou, after all, you are the daughter of the Hou Mansion, Master Hou is here, let's make a decision again."

As soon as the words fell, someone came to report: "Master Hou has arrived."

"Please." Ouyang Huaiyu waved his hand.

"Unfilial things!" As soon as Xia Huaiqing arrived, an arrow leaped in front of Xia Zhiqiu, and then the slap fell on her face.

Xia Zhiqiu was beaten, she covered her face and knelt on the ground: "Daddy?" looked at her father in disbelief who had not moved a finger in Su Ri.

Xia Huaiqing's face was pale, his body exuded anger, and his eyes were about to burst into flames: "Since I was a child, I sent you to read the Four Books and Five Classics, whether what you said today is true or not, you have a dispute with others, and you have made the palace restless, it is really a shame for the old man, what face do you let the old man face again?"

His father's grand anger made Xia Zhiqiu angry and afraid, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and he didn't dare to speak again.
