Cuiliu hurriedly came in from outside and pouted: "Just now, Green Silk came, saying that Miss Chi came to visit the eldest lady, so why don't you go with you?" ”

"Let me do what?" Lowering her eyes, Ning Xiyue said indifferently.

"What kind of competition is going to be held in the Embroidery Pavilion in three days, so that the three young ladies in the house can watch it?"

Cuiliu looked dissatisfied, and at the end she didn't forget to mutter: "The cat cries and the mouse is fake compassion, who knows what kind of medicine she sells in the gourd." ”

"You girl, you really don't hide any emotions."

Ning Xiyue shook her head helplessly, although Cuiliu's girl was heartfelt, her mind was not as transparent as Xia, and she didn't want to think about things.

After that Chishu came back from the temple, he must have hated himself very much, and this time the embroidery pavilion held a competition, but she kindly invited herself to go, among them, I am afraid there is another purpose.

It's just that this time Chi Shu invited the three sisters of the Ning family, if she doesn't go alone, I'm afraid that someone will grab the handle and not let go, and when the time comes, it will be endless.

After thinking about it, Ning Xiyue instructed: "Cuiliu, you go to my sister's place to tell me, I will definitely go in three days." ”

Cuiliu didn't understand why Ning Xiyue wanted to go, but seeing Ning Xiyue's affirmative tone, she had no choice but to nod in agreement.

After instructing the guards to guard the warehouse, Ning Xiyue returned to the courtyard.

Jin'er had just been drugged, and although the palm prints on her face looked much better, they were still red and swollen.

Seeing Ning Xiyue, Jin'er hurriedly wanted to kneel.

Ning Xiyue stretched out her hand to help him up, and said lightly: "I didn't do anything, you don't have to make this big gift." ”

Jin'er nodded, so she had to retreat obediently.

She had just heard Rong Xia say a lot, and she realized how kind the second young lady was and how good she was to the people in the house.

Compared with Rong Xia and Cuiliu, Jin'er felt that the masters who could be good to their subordinates were all living bodhisattvas.

"Miss, please have tea."

Rong Xia put the teacup on the stone table, and the moment he looked up, he and Ning Xiyue glanced at each other, and nodded almost invisibly.

Miss asked her to test Jin'er's girl, according to her, Jin'er is a poor person, and she is loyal enough, if she can help Miss do the eyeliner around Aunt Lu, it will be better.

"Jin'er, come here."

Stretching out her hand to beckon Jin'er to her side, she grabbed her thin wrist, and Ning Xiyue took her pulse carefully.

Half-loud, put down his hand, and slowly spit out a sentence that shocked Jin'er: "You were drugged, so your throat was dumb." ”

"Plop!"

Jin'er knelt heavily on the ground, and bean-sized tears flowed down her cheeks.

That's right, she ate what the old lady gave, so she broke her throat.

She had thought that she was drugged before, but after thinking about it, she couldn't guess who would drug her. Is it Aunt Lu? Miss? Or who?

Now hearing Ning Xiyue's words, Jin'er has an intuition that Ning Xiyue can heal her throat and allow her to speak again.

"She's a smart girl."

Slender fingers gently lifted Jin'er's jaw, looking directly at her misty eyes, Ning Xiyue said slowly: "Let's trade, you do my eyeliner, I will cure your throat, and find out the person who harmed you." ”

Eyeliner?

Jin'er grew up in the General's Mansion since she was a child, so she naturally understands what eyeliner means.

The second miss means that she should help the second miss spy on Aunt Lu and the eldest lady.

Jin'er's shoulders trembled, and Aunt Lu never showed mercy to her subordinates, if she knew ...... I'm afraid her life is gone.

However, even if she is loyal to Aunt Lu, I am afraid that there are not many good days, Aunt Lu is gentle on the surface, but she is terrible when she is angry. The most important thing is that Aunt Lu never takes the lives of her subordinates seriously.

I once had a little sister, because she offended Aunt Lu, she was sent by Aunt Lu to the house to drive a carriage as a concubine, but as a result, she died that night.

She had peeked at it, and the scars all over her body were simply miserable.

Jin'er was very entangled, she felt terrible about Aunt Lu's methods, but she couldn't help but want to help Ning Xiyue.

How could Ning Xiyue not see Jin'er's struggle and entanglement? She calmly picked up the teacup and took a sip lightly, without urging.

For Jin'er, a chess piece, even if he can't get Ning Xiyue, he won't lose anything.

The silence in the air was terrible, half a sound, Jin'er kowtowed heavily, and at the end, she grabbed Ning Xiyue's hand tightly, and kept writing something in the palm of her hand.

And what is written, only Ning Xiyue herself knows.

Let Rong Xia help Jin'er get up, Ning Xiyue said: "Starting tomorrow night, every seven days, I will prick you with a silver needle, and after a month, your voice will naturally speak." ”

January? Jin'er nodded excitedly.

Knowing that she had more difficult tasks, Jin'er hurriedly said goodbye and left.

"Miss, will Jin'er be reliable?" Rong Xia frowned, a little worried.

After all, there are too many two-faced minions for the sake of some interests.

"Don't worry!"

Glancing up at the getting late sky, Ning Xiyue stood up and walked to the inner room, and when she walked to the door, she didn't forget to instruct: "Rest early, there is a big battle to fight tomorrow morning." ”

Rong Xia blinked, and immediately understood the deep meaning of Ning Xiyue's words.

Early in the morning.

Ning Xiyue ordered Rong Xia and Cuiliu to call all the people in the mansion to the courtyard, but after Ning Xiyue waited for nearly three hours, after three poles in the sun, everyone came in a hurry.

Taking a sip of the tea in the cup, Ning Xiyue's red lips hooked lightly: "This is already the twenty-sixth cup of tea I have drunk, it seems that I, the daughter of the General's Mansion, is really very unpopular!" Even my subordinates didn't listen to me. ”

"Second Miss, what are you talking about?"

The grandmother in charge of the kitchen pinched the waist of the bucket and swayed the fat all over her body: "The entire general's mansion depends on the old slave to provide three meals a day, the general's, the aunt's, the young lady's, the old slave is busy all morning, and it is normal to come late." ”

"Oh? Then this grandmother is really hard. ”

Meimu looked around, and Ning Xiyue smiled harmlessly: "What about the others?" ”

Everyone in the entire General's Mansion knew that Ning Xiyue had a good temper, never punished his subordinates, and spoke even more unruly.

"Second Miss, the little one has to chop wood to make a fire, and there is no time."

"The slave maid has to wait for the third lady to get up and wash, and there is no world."

Someone took the lead, and for a while, dozens of subordinates all chattered and found various reasons, although the reasons were strange, but everyone had a disdainful expression on their faces for the same thing.

Obviously, they were not convinced by Ning Xiyue.

"You guys are excessive."

Ning Xiyue was calm, but Cuiliu couldn't hold her breath: "Even if you have to do something in the morning, two hours is enough, and now it's three poles in the sun, so you are here, and besides, looking for such a lame reason is simply bullying Miss." ”

"Hmph, what do you know about this girl?"

The grandmother in charge of the kitchen spat and spat, with an arrogant attitude: "The general works hard for the country, so he naturally has to eat well, and if he is a subordinate, of course he must be dutiful." ”

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! There was a slap.

"Well said!"
