The temperature has plummeted since yesterday evening, and now the wind blowing outside has dropped its leaves, and only a few poles of trees are left to tremble in the air, and the people in the house are no longer able to do without the stove.

Man Niang was injured in Fu'an Hall, and she was Song Lier's guest, and the shopkeeper couldn't be lazy, so he let people prepare the stove and prepare food early in the morning.

When the shopkeeper saw Jiang Zhu and the others coming, he hurriedly asked people to go to the kitchen to make a pot of tea. Walking to the door with tea and seeing the awkward atmosphere inside, it was neither in nor in retreat for a while. Fortunately, Song Lier found the movement in time and went to pick it up.

"Go get busy."

Song Li'er's words eased the atmosphere a little, but the whiteness on Manniang's face added two points of thin red.

"Jiang Shaoqing, what I said is indeed the truth, she is a servant."

"It's better to say it all." Jiang Zhu's patience seemed to be about to be worn out, and he stood up and looked at the gloomy weather outside.

Man Niang's face froze: "She is the servant of Xie Fu." ”

"That means admitting that you are the former nurse of the Zhou Mansion?" Jiang Zhu didn't turn around, and the cold voice lowered the room that had been warmed by the stove by a degree, which made Man Niang couldn't help but be shocked.

"No, she just saw me pitiful." After Manniang finished speaking, she looked at Song Li'er as if asking for help. Although Song Li'er felt that Manniang's current situation was not suitable for continuing to interrogate, Liu San's incident had already taught Song Li'er a lesson last time. If it weren't for her, the slave behind might not have died. turned around and didn't look at Manniang, and helped Xiguo pour a cup of tea for everyone.

"The servant took you to see the Zhou family, but the Zhou family is not your little lady, in order to save your life, you said that you lied to the old man of the Zhou family, thinking of defrauding some money. The Zhou family has no impression of you, and because of the white affairs of the Xie Mansion, you are too busy. For a while, he didn't even see through your lie, gave you a sum of money, and sent you away. What I didn't expect was that not long after you went out, all your silver taels were looted and emptied, and even the clothes on your body were changed. Xie Fu is not able to go again. I don't know where you learned that the lady of the Song family is the most kind-hearted and is the small proprietor of the medicine shop in the city. You have the attitude of giving it a try, and you really come across it. Jiang Zhu played with the white jade plate hollowed out by the plum blossom tied around his waist in his hand, his voice was still clear, there was no emotion on his face, and he still looked at the empty courtyard outside: "The one who came to kill you last night should be the killer that Zhou decided to make after reacting." ”

Man Niang was stunned, touched the wound that was still faintly painful at her pipa bone, and lowered her head.

Song Lier and Chen Xueqing on the side couldn't help but give Jiang Zhu a thumbs up, but the atmosphere was not right now.

After a long time, Man Niang said: "The Zhou family is indeed not the little lady of the Zhou family, but the concubine of Alonna, and I am just the maid of the Zhou family who is in charge of the flowers and plants in the yard of the lady." ”

Man Niang raised her head to find the person who met her eyes, patted her chest, and promised: "Madame's advice to me before she died, I really didn't lie. ”

"But what's the proof?" Jiang Zhu turned around at this time and returned to his original seat.

"Yes, you just need to ask Mei Niang about Wang's house in Shengzhou." Man Niang breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that her words had gained trust.

"Is there any physical evidence?" Song Wanjing interjected.

"Yes, in my baggage." Man Niang pointed to the small blue embroidered burden placed on the cabinet in the corner of the room: "There is a golden hairpin in it, which Madame asked me to give to the descendants of the Zhou family. ”

"Manniang, I just offended, and I hope to understand." Jiang Zhu finished asking, and arched his hand at Man Niang: "You rest, we won't bother." ”

Man Niang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "It's the servant who concealed Shaoqing, it's the maid's fault." ”

"Understood." After Jiang Zhu finished speaking, he left the house, followed by Chen Xueqing and Song Wanjing. Song Li'er instructed a few words, and then trotted to catch up with the three of them.

"Done?"

The wind outside was very strong, and Song Li'er shrunk her neck coldly, rubbing her hands on her body.

"Almost."

Passing by the courtyard, I entered the pharmacy outside, and it was much warmer.

The carriage of the Jiang Mansion was waiting outside, and Song Li'er trotted over in the morning because of the proximity of the Song Mansion here. Now I see the wind outside, and I don't want to go outside for a single step.

"I'm going to die cold." Song Li'er hid behind Song Wanjing and shrunk back.

"Let's go, I'll send you back first." Jiang Zhu said.

Song Li'er smiled at Jiang Zhu and said, "It's still Jiang Shaoqing who is smart. ”

Song Wanjing and Chen Xueqing shook their heads at Song Li'er's thicker and thicker skin. Song Lier didn't see it, and got into the carriage directly.

Jiang Zhu's carriage was still the same, but there were no books on the carriage, an incense burner, and a soup woman.

"You take it." Jiang Zhu followed Song Li'er into the car, handed Tang Pozi to Song Li'er, and sat down opposite Song Li'er.

"Thank you." Song Li'er is naturally unkind, can these people not be cold if she doesn't wear a fox fur?

Song Wanjing looked at Song Li'er's appearance, and was very disgusted: "Don't go out when you go home." ”

"Definitely. There are still a lot of things to do in his hands, unlike my brother who can follow Jiang Shaoqing around. Song Lier said and nodded: "Brother, I'm not saying that you are idle, let alone that you are useless." ”

Song Wanjing gritted her teeth and was about to reach out to knock on Song Li'er, who was sitting next to her, when Song Li'er suddenly shouted: "Song Mansion has arrived." ”

"Knock"

Still didn't dodge.

"Song Li'er, don't force me." Song Wanjing looked at this sister who no longer needed face, and was very helpless.

"What did I force you?" Song Li'er rubbed her head and looked at Song Wanjing innocently: "Jiang Shaoqing and Chen Xueqing can call the shots." ”

"Song Li'er" Song Wanjing's voice raised a few degrees, and people passing by outside inevitably wanted to take a look at the carriage and wonder what was going on inside.

"Brother, you're so embarrassed!" Song Li'er sighed and shook her head: "Jiang Shaoqing, you have to be surprised, my brother is just a little bad tempered, and everything else is good." ”

Song Wanjing......

Chen Xueqing glanced at Song Wanjing sympathetically: "You still don't want to fight with Song Li'er." ”

Jiang Zhu just watched quietly, with a faint smile on his face.

Song Lier returned to the Song Mansion, and before leaving, she was kicked by Song Wanjing who couldn't bear it.

"Xiguo, you said that I wrote in the account book that my brother took a bunch of deer antler velvet from the pharmacy, and you said that my father knew, what will happen to my brother? Will you feel that this Lang Jun has suddenly opened his mind? Song Li'er sat on the ground and looked up at Xiguo and said.

Song Wanjing, who was just about to get into the carriage, slipped her foot and almost fell. The two people sitting in the middle of the room also heard it, and their faces were mixed with embarrassment.

Chen Xueqing avoided that Song Li'er's words would be even more unbearable if she waited for a while, so she hurriedly pulled Song Wanjing into the car and asked the groom to drive away.

Song Lier saw that the carriage was far away, so she patted her ass and got up.

"You want to fight with me, but it's still a little tender."

Song Li'er went to greet Li Shi first, and then returned to her yard, and when she saw the account books piled up on the kang in the house, she suddenly felt tired.

Li Shi knew that the account books in Song Li'er's hand were very cumbersome to check, so he handled the things in hand and went to Song Lier's yard to fight for a hand.

"Auntie, it's okay, I can handle it." Usually, the Li family is tired enough to take care of the big and small affairs at home, and Song Lier is reluctant to add some trouble to the Li family.

"It's okay, I'll just take a look at it for you." Li Shi had never touched the account books of the pharmacy before, and he could only help Song Lier look through them roughly.

"Okay." Song Li'er lowered her head and checked the accounts one by one, and when she looked at it, it was night. Meals are also directly solved in the house.

Song Wanjing came back early today, and when she saw that Song Lier was still busy, she felt a little guilty.

"Why are you here to make trouble?" Song Li'er hurriedly put the account books that had been counted behind her to prevent Song Wanjing from causing trouble to herself.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Song Wanjing didn't mind Song Lier's attitude towards her this time.

Song Lier's work did not stop, and the regular script with a feminine atmosphere was left on the tent: "Dangui three coins, no." You'd better go back and rest early. ”

Song Wanjing sat still and didn't say anything more.

Song Li'er felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and stretched out her hand and touched Song Wanjing's head: "Don't force yourself." ”

"But you'll have to force yourself." Song Wanjing's smile was a little stiff.

"Who said that?" Song Lier's pen in her hand.

Song Wanjing wanted to speak and stopped, and finally only said one sentence: "It's okay, you can rest early." ”

"Don't think that this is the case that I can forgive you for kicking me." Song Li'er clenched her fists and said viciously to Song Wanjing's forehead.

"Okay." Song Wanjing looked at Song Li'er and there were several account books on the table and no longer bothered: "Don't exhaust yourself." ”

"Don't worry." Song Li'er waved her hand, wishing that Song Wanjing would leave quickly, so as not to disturb her here.

In the middle of the night, Song Li'er's courtyard in the Song Mansion was still brightly lit, and Xiguo and Mei Lan, who were guarding next to her, had already been unable to hold back and fell asleep, only Song Li'er on the kang was still looking at the account books page by page, and the oil lamp had been added four times.

A spirit, Mei Lan woke up from her dream and saw that Song Lier was still busy.

"Lady, take a break, it's okay to see it tomorrow." Merlin persuaded.

"It's okay, there's only this one."

The heating in the house burned enough, and Song Lier didn't feel cold.

"Then I'll go get some water." Merlin said and exited the house.

After reading the last page, Song Lier stretched her waist and looked at the night scene outside, as if there were snowflakes floating in the air. Walking outside, a chill hits.

Mei Lan, who was holding the water, saw it and hurriedly said, "Lady, it's late at night, it's cold, go in quickly." ”

"Merlan, it's snowing." Song Lier stretched out her hand to pick up a snowflake in her hand, and as soon as she touched it, Song Lier felt a trace of coolness, and the snowflake dissipated.

Mei Lan saw that Song Li'er was smiling happily, so she had to stand at the tuyere to block some of the chill for Song Li'er.

"Let's go inside."

Tomorrow will be snow-white.
