After Lan Hai came back, she told Xiao Lingwei what she had investigated, and there was nothing suspicious about Xiaohe's family.

It's just that Xiaohe's eldest brother is a good gambler, and he owes a lot of gambling debts outside, and his father takes everything that can be used in the family in order to help him pay off his debts.

The money Xiaohe earned singing in the Qinglou was also forced to use it to pay off her eldest brother's debts.

"No wonder she's coming to find Brother Yue." Xiao Ling thought of the events of the day slightly, and felt very uncomfortable.

Lan Hai also heard about the events during the day, and she said: "Miss, this little lotus looks weak, I didn't expect to be so vicious, and I can do it to my own children."

"It's for General Xiaoyue's sake, but it's actually for herself."

Xiao Ling looked at her slightly, "Oh~ How do you say that?" ”

Lan Hai said slowly: "If this child is General Xiaoyue's, we have just returned from Fengzhou, and Xiaohe has come to the door, indicating that she has been keeping an eye on General Xiaoyue's whereabouts.

Because she eats and lives in the Qinglou, her eldest brother usually takes all the money she earns that day.

And she was able to find out the accurate information of General Xiaoyue without leaving the Qinglou, which showed that she asked someone to think of a way, and no matter what method she used, she must have done it with money.

"Miss, don't forget, we came back from Fengzhou that day very low-key, and the big army only arrived the next day, but Xiaohe came to the Duhu Mansion to find General Xiaoyue before everyone knew about it.

"This is enough to show that this little lotus is not simple."

Xiao Ling nodded slightly: "You have a point, continue." ”

Lan Hai continued: "The slave guessed that this Xiaohe was thinking that if she was pregnant with General Xiaoyue's child, she would be able to stay with General Xiaoyue, and she would not have to worry about making money in the future.

"Maybe General Xiaoyue can help her eldest brother pay off his gambling debts, pull him again, and give their family a sum of money to make a living, and Xiaohe will live a easier life in the future.

But I didn't expect that later, Xiaohe heard that General Xiaoyue had already decided to marry, and General Yue minded the existence of her and the child, and even heard that General Yue was going to kill the child in her belly.

So she thought that since the child couldn't be saved, she simply turned the passive into the active, solved the child by herself, and pretended to be for the sake of General Xiaoyue.

In this way, she can get the pity of General Xiao Yue, and then stay by General Xiao Yue's side, even if it is General Yue, it is not easy to drive her away after this incident.

"The slave guesses that she will definitely beg General Xiaoyue to stay next, either way."

Xiao Ling asked slightly: "Then what if this child is not Brother Yue's?" ”

Lan Hai's face sank: "If the child is not General Xiaoyue's, then this Xiaohe is even more ill-intentioned."

No matter who the child's father is, Xiaohe is the child's mother, and she can kill her own child, which shows that in her heart, she herself is important.

"For her own benefit, even her own children can be sacrificed."

Xiao Lingwei listened to her analysis, and suddenly felt a chill, she would rather believe that Xiaohe just didn't want Yue Peng to be embarrassed, but deep down, she also understood that in a certain aspect, Xiaohe was indeed ruthless.

"Sister Lanhai, I didn't expect you to see it so thoroughly."

Lan Hai smiled bitterly: "I've been in the back house for a long time, and I've seen a lot, so it's naturally clear."

"Miss, you are still young, and when you see more in the future, you will know that women are more ruthless than men."

Xiao Ling was slightly thoughtful.

Lan Hai didn't want her to feel too heavy, so he took out a letter and handed it to her: "Miss, this is a letter from Young Master Li." ”

"Fourth Senior Brother has sent a letter?" Xiao Lingwei took the letter and couldn't wait to open it.

She read ten lines at a glance, five pages of letterhead, and she read them all at once.

After reading the letter, she picked up the envelope again, put it upside down and poured it upside down, and two maple leaves fell from the envelope.

Xiao Ling pinched two maple leaves slightly and looked at them, one maple leaf had a poem written on it, and a picture was drawn on the cover.

The poem is written about Qiu Si, but it also expresses Li Xuan's thoughts about her.

The painting is a stick figure, this kind of stick figure, Xiao Lingwei has seen Li Xuan draw many times, and she has also studied with him for a while. A little girl is painted on the maple leaf, chubby.

That's her.

Xiao Lingwei couldn't help but smile.

There was also a cute pig drawn next to it, but the thought that he was sarcastically making her fat as a pig when she was a child made her purses and angrily threw the maple leaf out.

Lan Hai walked over, picked up the maple leaf on the ground, and when he looked at the painting on it, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Don't laugh." Xiao Ling roared slightly.

Lan Hai immediately put away his smile and said seriously: "Since Miss doesn't like this leaf, the slave will burn it." ”

As he spoke, he threw the maple leaf into the incense burner.

Suddenly, a shadow flashed, and the next moment, his hand was empty.

Lan Hai curled the corners of her mouth and looked at Xiao Lingwei, who was sitting back in place, holding two maple leaves in her hands.

Xiao Ling glanced at it slightly, twisted and said, "I suddenly found that this painting is okay, I'll look at it for a while, and when I'm tired of it, I'll burn it." ”

Lan Hai snickered in his heart, and said on his face: "Yes, Miss will burn it when she gets tired of it." ”

"You..." Xiao Ling looked at Lan Hai slightly, wanting to scold her, but seeing that there was no sneering expression on her face, she said, "You go to the kitchen and get me something to eat." ”

"Yes, miss."

Lan Hai turned around, Miss is really a twisted child.

......

On this day, Xiao Ling wandered to the martial arts training ground.

Yue Peng was learning martial arts with Cheng Dawu, and when he saw Xiao Lingwei, he immediately ran over: "Sister Xiao, come, let's have a fight." ”

Cheng Dawu was unhappy: "Hey, I said that you just pulled me to accompany you to fight, but there are not a few tricks, so you don't fight, but instead find Sister Xiao to accompany you."

"You're looking down on me, aren't you?"

Yue Peng explained: "I didn't look down on you, I just told Sister Xiao before, and the two of us have to have a discussion." ”

"Then when the two of us are done, you can learn from Sister Xiao again."

"No, I want to learn from Sister Xiao now, I have been learning with you every day, and it's not bad for today."

"Hey, you stinky boy." Cheng Dawu raised his fist and rushed over: "You still dislike me?" Master, I look up to you, so I learn from you every day. ”

Yue Peng dodged: "Yes, yes, thank you for your appreciation, then today, don't appreciate me." ”

Cheng Dawu stopped and stared into his eyes: "You just think that Sister Xiao's martial arts are better than mine." ”

Yue Peng simply admitted: "Yes, I feel that Sister Xiao's martial arts are better than yours." ”

When Cheng Dawu heard this, he was furious and turned to Xiao Lingwei: "Sister Xiao, I want to compete with you, I want to see who is more powerful." ”

Xiao Ling's head is slightly big, she has already practiced today, and she doesn't want to do it anymore.

"Two brothers, shall we have a day off today? Otherwise, let's go out shopping? ”

Cheng Dawu and Yue Peng said in unison: "Don't go." ”

The two glanced at each other, and Cheng Dawu took the lead in rushing towards Xiao Lingwei: "Sister Xiao, take it..."
