"Is Madame wanting to see me?" Hongxiang asked more.

The maid who came to deliver the message was obviously impatient: "Please Aunt Xiang hurry up, Madame is waiting." ”

Hongxiang walked quickly all the way into Mrs. Ding's house, and couldn't help but quietly look left and right, she was faintly looking forward to seeing Master Ding here, however, after looking at it for a long time, she finally realized that there was only Mrs. Ding in the house.

"What are you looking at?" Suddenly, Mrs. Ding's question sounded overhead.

Hongxiang hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye, and asked a little worriedly: "Hongxiang heard that the master is back?" ”

"I'm back," Mrs. Ding said lightly, "but I didn't want to see you." ”

Hongxiang raised her head violently, obviously incredulous: "Master...... Don't want to see me? ”

Mrs. Ding smiled and nodded: "Do you know why?" ”

"Hongxiang doesn't know, sir, he'...... Are you tired of red incense? ”

Mrs. Ding took in her emotions and was quite satisfied: "You lost your child, and grandpa said that he was sad when he saw you, so it would be better not to see you." ”

Hongxiang was full of panic and muttered: "The master blames me for not keeping his child, heh, I didn't keep the child." Looking at Mrs. Ding's eyes, her eyes were full of sarcasm.

Mrs. Ding didn't seem to feel it, and then said: "Hongxiang, I know that you have affection for the master in your heart, and now there is something for you to do. ”

"Once upon a time?" Hongxiang sneered in her heart, "How Madame treated me in the past, Hongxiang can't see clearly, but Madame understands in her heart." ”

Mrs. Ding raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect Hongxiang, who had always been obedient and docile, to say such a thing, but this did not hinder her plans.

"I know that you are resentful because of the loss of your child," Mrs. Ding said calmly, "but if you do this well, I will promise you that your next child will be born safely." ”

Hong Xiangqian raised her head and looked at Mrs. Ding in disbelief.

"I heard that the doctor Liuli found for you has excellent medical skills and can take care of your body", Mrs. Ding smiled faintly, full of kindness: "The master has always liked children, and after so many years, it is time for him to get what he wants." ”

Hongxiang only felt that her whole body was cold, and Mrs. Ding was obviously smiling, but in her eyes, she was extremely hideous.

"Madame...... I want to make the red incense ...... What to do? She opened her mouth with difficulty.

"It's not that difficult", Mrs. Ding felt that she had the chance to win, "I remember that your canning skills were originally taught by Liuli, and now I want you to learn her skills again." ”

"Side?" Hongxiang repeated unconsciously.

"Lipstick and her new treats." Mrs. Ding said.

Hongxiang was stunned, as if she didn't understand what Mrs. Ding was saying. The latter repeated: "Hongxiang, with your friendship with Liuli, it shouldn't be difficult to do this." ”

Hongxiang finally reacted to what Mrs. Ding wanted her to do, she just didn't understand it anymore, and she understood what this thing meant to Liuli.

"This secret recipe is related to Sister Liuli's business, how can it be easily given to people?" Hongxiang shook her head firmly: "Hongxiang really can't do what Madame said." ”

"You can do it." Mrs. Ding's tone was affirmative.

"Madame thinks too highly of Hongxiang, Sister Liuli ......" Before she finished her rebuttal, Mrs. Ding said directly: "If it is easy to get, there is no need for you." ”

Hongxiang frowned.

Mrs. Ding continued: "With your relationship, Liuli will not defend you, as long as you go to see her often, get closer to her, and use a little thought, you will definitely be able to get it." ”

"Madame wants Hongxiang to go...... Steal? Hongxiang's head shook even more, "How can I do such a thing?" Sister Liuli treats me like a relative......"

"Ding Mansion is your relative!" Mrs. Ding interrupted sharply, "Hongxiang, you should be able to distinguish between inside and outside, you are the aunt of Ding Mansion, you should consider everything for our Ding Mansion, now, it is the time when Ding Mansion needs you, you have done this, and it is not in vain that Ding Mansion has treated you in the past few years." ”

"But Sister Liuli is kind to me, Hongxiang will never do such an ungrateful thing!" Hongxiang shook her head firmly. "Madame, please be smart, forgive Hongxiang for being difficult to obey!"

After that, he said goodbye and prepared to leave.

"Stop!" Mrs. Ding scolded sharply, and then snorted coldly: "Hongxiang, do you know why I brought you in in the first place?" ”

Hongxiang was stunned, she had never thought about this problem, what Mrs. Ding said was that Aunt Fuzhong was getting older, and she saw that Hongxiang was a good one, so she wanted him to serve Master Ding.

Now that I think about it, how could people like Mrs. Ding take the initiative to give people to Master Ding's side?

"For ...... Why? Hongxiang asked hard, because she had a hunch that the answer would not be too good.

"Naturally, it's because of Song Liuli." Sure enough, Mrs. Ding's thin lips opened lightly and said the answer, "At the beginning, my master and I thought that Song Liuli was a usable talent, but she has a flamboyant and capable temperament, and she is the most difficult to control, so she prefers you to be good friends with Liuli." After I discussed with the master, I accepted you, in order to better control Song Liuli. ”

Hongxiang's face was full of shock and disbelief: "So, I can be the aunt of Dingfu, all because of Liuli?" ”

"Not bad." A cold smile tugged at the corner of Mrs. Ding's mouth, "So, now is the time for you to give full play to your true value, if you can't get the recipe from the hand of the Liuli, then what's the use of my Ding Mansion keeping you?" ”

"No, I don't believe it, I don't believe it." Hongxiang shook her head frantically, and her words were already crying, "Master, the master once said in person that he likes my gentleness and likes me to be considerate and thoughtful everywhere, how can I ...... How can it be because it's glass? ”

"If you don't believe it, you can ask the master yourself, but I'm afraid that the master doesn't want to see you now." Mrs. Ding said coldly, "I've finished what I need to say, you can go back and think about it yourself." ”

Coming out of Mrs. Ding's place, Hongxiang returned to her yard all the way in despair, Xiao Xing was worried about it, every time Mrs. asked her aunt to go, it would be fine.

"Auntie, what's wrong? Aunt ...... "Xiao Xing reached out to help, but felt that Hongxiang's whole person trembled badly.

"It's for this...... Is it for this? Hongxiang muttered, repeating the sentence all the time.

Xiao Xing didn't hear clearly: "Auntie, what did you say?" ”

"Hehe, what am I? What is it? Hongxiang continued to talk to herself.

Xiao Xing was about to cry urgently, and shook her red fragrant arm violently: "Auntie, wake up, stop talking nonsense!" ”

The violent tremor from her side finally made Hongxiang wake up a little, and what caught her eye was Xiao Xing's worried face.

"Apricot Kohap?"

"Hey, auntie, it's me, Xiaoxing is here."

"Xiao Xing, I want to see the master."

"Auntie...... "The master has been back for so many days, but he has never come to see his aunt, how can Xiaoxing not know the bitterness in Hongxiang's heart.

She thought that Hongxiang was so depressed because she couldn't see her master and was wronged by Mrs. Ding. Gritted his teeth at the moment, and made up his mind: "Auntie, don't worry, Xiaoxing will go and invite the master, and the master will definitely invite you here." ”

After saying that, he trotted all the way and disappeared without a trace.

Hongxiang didn't care about Xiaoxing's actions, but she didn't expect that she really invited Master Ding.

"Old ...... Master?! Hongxiang looked at the man who appeared in front of her in a daze.

Master Ding glanced at Hongxiang, and then ordered Xiao Xing: "You go down." ”

"Yes." Xiao Xing's eyes turned between Master Ding and Hongxiang, and she retreated with some apprehension and faint expectation.

There were only two people left in the room, and Master Ding sighed faintly: "Listen to Xiaoxing, do you want to see me?" ”

"It's been so long, doesn't the master want to see Hongxiang at all? Are you really tired of me? Hongxiang asked poignantly.

Master Ding sighed: "You, don't say these things." ”

"Master," Hongxiang said, "Master, have you ever remembered that you said to Hongxiang that we will wait for our children to ......?"

"That's it!" There was a faint anger in Master Ding's words, although the child was gone, and Hongxiang was also injured, but Master Ding couldn't help but blame her, and when he saw her, he thought of the child who was gone, "If it's okay, I'll leave, what Mrs. said, you should think about it." ”

"Does the master know what Mrs. Ding wants Hongxiang to do?"

"Hmm." Master Ding nodded.

"It seems that what Madame said is true." Hongxiang's mood at the moment is not so much disappointment as despair.

"What's true?" Master Ding asked.

Hongxiang tried to stabilize her mind, and then she spoke in a calm tone of encouragement: "Madame said that when the master married Hongxiang, it was because of Liuli, because of her fresh food, that the Ding family wanted to control Liuli for their own use, and I was close to her. That's why you accepted me, right? ”

"Now that you know that the Ding Mansion is in need, you should listen to Madame and do your best for the Ding Mansion."

Hongxiang still had a hint of expectation, thinking that the old man would be different after all, but he didn't expect that what he admitted was so happy and natural, and it was the same as Mrs. Ding's thoughts.

My sincerity is wrong after all.

Seeing that people were full of sadness, and he looked like he was reluctant to keep his soul, his heart became more and more depressed, and he said coldly: "Think about it." And he departed.

Hongxiang stayed alone in the house for five days, never going out or talking, until five days later, when Mrs. Ding sent someone to invite her again.

"Have you figured it out?" Mrs. Ding sat on the top and asked condescendingly.

"I've figured it out." Hongxiang's face was calm, and she replied with three words lightly: "I am willing." ”

"Good." Mrs. Ding nodded appreciatively, got down from her seat, and held Hongxiang's hand affectionately, "I knew that you were an understander." When this matter is done, you will be the nobleman of our Ding Mansion and my sister. ”

Hongxiang's face remained unchanged, and she gently withdrew her hand: "Please allow Madame to allow Hongxiang to go out of the house and go to see Liuli." ”

"That's nature." Mrs. Ding said with a smile, "In the future, you can leave the house whenever you want, and I will order you to go down and prepare a car for you." ”

"Mrs. Xie." Hongxiang blessed her body and retreated, and went directly to Song Ji.

Coincidentally, Liuli was not here today, Zhou Xiaoshu came back, and Liuli followed back to Dawan Village.

There are now 12 foot shops, and most of them are concentrated in the south.

"In Jinling alone, there are three of our foot shops", Zhou Xiaoshu said, "Jinling is prosperous and prosperous, and it is a distribution place for business between the north and the south. ”

"Jinling......" Liuli yearned, "I have heard that Jinling has beauties, and small trees often come and go to Jinling, but are you full of eyes?" ”

"Huh?" Zhou Xiaoshu blushed unconsciously, "How did Erniang say this." ”

Liuli smiled: "But you're still young, so you're not allowed to come here." ”

"II...... What did Erniang say? Zhou Xiaoshu was embarrassed and quickly changed the topic, "However, Jinling is indeed a good place for outstanding people, if Erniang is interested, you can go and take a look." ”

"That's for sure." Liuli said, "One day when our foot shops are opened all over the week, I will go around the country." ”

I talked with Zhou Xiaoshu about many future development plans of the foot shop, and it wasn't until three days later that Liuli went to the restaurant for a routine check.

As soon as I came, I met the red incense that had been waiting here for a long time.

In the past few days, Hongxiang has been waiting for glass in Song Kee Restaurant almost every day, and today I finally waited for people to come back.

"Sister, but you figured it out?" Liuli is happy.

"Figure out what?" Hongxiang was puzzled.

"Leave the Ding family", Liuli said, "I told my sister earlier." ”

Hongxiang's pale face showed a distant expression, and murmured: "I can't do without it, don't think about leaving in this life." ”

"What did my sister say?" Ruri didn't hear clearly.

"It's nothing", Hong Xiangfu smiled again, "Let's not talk about this." ”

Hongxiang said, clenching Liuli's hand: "Sister Liuli, it's my blessing to have the honor to meet you in this life." You are good to me, my sister is afraid that she will not be able to pay it back. ”

"Why did my sister say that?" Liuli was puzzled, "Between our sisters, we don't have to talk about this." ”

Hongxiang still ignored herself: "I know that my sister treats me sincerely, and my sister regrets it now, she didn't listen to her sister's persuasion and married into the Ding family, but now, it's too late for anything......"

As soon as Liuli was about to speak, Hongxiang interrupted her: "Actually, my sister is here today, and I still want to entrust my sister with something." ”

"Sister said that's it, as long as Liuli can do it, she must try to do it, but don't say such things again." Ruri was about to be frightened by Hongxiang's abnormality.

"Okay", Hongxiang patted the back of Liuli's hand steadily, "It's Xiaoxing, you know, she is young and simple, if you can take care of her in the future, you will help my sister take care of one or two." ”

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Liuli's eyes revealed anxiety and worry.

"Hey, what can I do", Hongxiang laughed, "It's just that I feel that I'm not as good as before in Dingfu now, and I'm afraid I won't be able to protect Xiaoxing." ”

"Really?" Liuli was suspicious, she always felt that Hongxiang was abnormal today.

"Naturally, it's true, otherwise what else would it be." Hongxiang's face was as usual, and her tone returned to her usual appearance.

The two talked for a long time, until it was dark in the evening, and Hongxiang took the car back to Dingfu.

Liuli was worried in her heart, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong with Hongxiang, she thought that no matter what, she would go to Dingfu tomorrow to take a look.

It's just that I didn't expect that before she went, she got the news that Hongxiang died.

- Yesterday night, he committed suicide by hanging himself from a beam in his own small courtyard.
