The rain was so dense that a piece of land became muddy in a blink of an eye, and the girl in the willow bud yellow dress held an umbrella and carefully avoided the puddles on the road, holding an umbrella in one hand and a skirt in the other, so as not to be stained by the splashing rain.

Walking up the bluestone steps through the winding corridor, I passed by two girls, who saw her and said, "Sister Lisheng." "As he spoke, he blessed his body.

And the girl named Lisheng didn't look down at them, only agreed lightly, and walked past the two of them in a hurry.

Qin Zhuxuan is lively at the moment, although it is raining outside, and there is thunder from time to time, but it does not disturb the laughter and play of several girls in the house.

"A few girls, the old lady has summoned you to Chang Xizhai." Before Lisheng entered the door, he first walked to the door and opened the door and said anxiously.

"What's the matter?" Su Yunyao asked.

After entering the door, Lisheng saluted, and hurriedly said, "Say that something happened, let the girls hurry over, and the other girls, the eldest lady and a few ladies have arrived." ”

Su Yunyao and Su Moyao glanced at each other, and they both saw puzzlement in each other's eyes.

Mrs. Su is not the kind of person who has nothing to do, and she was summoned in a hurry on this rainy day, something must have happened.

Besides, the elders have arrived, and the brothers and sisters have also arrived, so they really can't be delayed any longer.

Although it was raining heavily, the girls did not dare to delay, and hurriedly got up with their respective maids to hurry up.

Su Yunyao, Lisheng and Lixi walked in front, Su Moyao and Su Jinyao followed, and the maids were carefully holding umbrellas beside them.

"Did grandmother say something was wrong?" On the way, Su Yunyao asked in a low voice.

"The slave maid didn't know, but when I went to the kitchen to get tea for a few girls, I heard Mother Yuan talk about it, it seemed that the second lady provoked something, and the words seemed to be related to the girl, and the slave didn't dare to delay and hurriedly went to Qinzhuxuan, and met Mama Zhou next to the old lady on the way, and Mama Zhou said that the old lady called a few girls." Lisheng tried to pick short words to answer.

Li Xi asked next to her, "Something to do with the girl?" Didn't you take a good look at your in-laws' family for the three girls and the four girls, and pull our girls to Chang Xizhai to palm their eyes? ”

"How old is our girl? There are many identities in the Su Mansion, which can make a girl who has not left the cabinet palm? Let's talk about this rainy day, which of my mother-in-law's family can pick this day? Lisheng said angrily: "Looking at Mama Zhou's expression, it must not be a wonderful thing." ”

Su Yunyao gently patted the back of Lisheng's hand and signaled her not to talk nonsense.

Out of Qinzhuxuan to the east for a while, then turn two corners, and then walk to the north of the courtyard, the plaque on the top of the door 'Chang Xi Zhai' three big characters, impressively show how different the identity of the owner is.

Because Chang Xi Zhai is the place where the old lady lives, it is particularly quiet, and the left and right sides in front of the door are planted with magnolia flowers, lush and green, and it looks like the empty valley is quiet and quiet, especially meaningful.

Walking through the door and into the courtyard, you can see three large water tanks, in which a few lotus flowers are planted, and there are also a lot of bamboos planted in other open spaces.

was a quiet place, but as soon as she entered the courtyard gate, Su Yunyao felt different from usual.

"Grandmother is well." Su Yunyao and the other two sisters gently saluted like an old woman sitting on the upper seat, and then turned to salute a few ladies sitting on the side, "Big lady, second lady, third lady." ”

After seeing each other one by one, Su Yunyao found out that the fourth lady did not come.

That's right, the fourth lady now has a body, and it is inconvenient to go out to do things, and this rainy day should not come out.

She also caught a glimpse of Su Wanyao, the daughter of the fourth lady in the corner, standing there, her small body bones seemed to be held up there, and every time she saw her, she was afraid that a gust of wind would blow and she would fall to the ground.

This youngest sister, who was born with a lack of fetal problems, has been drinking decoction for many years, and every time she walks beside her, she can smell a smell of medicine.

The fourth lady's body is not good, and the health of the daughter born from the waste of half her life is even worse, and now that she is pregnant again, Su Yunyao is really sweating for the two of them.

The old woman sitting on the upper seat wore a dark brown forehead, and the center of the forehead was inlaid with a dark green gemstone, half-squinting at the large group of people standing and sitting in the room, and when she looked at Su Yunyao, her eyes suddenly widened, and the tea in her hand slammed the table hard.

This voice startled everyone, and Su Yunyao quickly raised her head to look at her grandmother.

"Yun'er." The old lady called.

"Grandmother, granddaughter here." Su Yunyao wanted to take two steps forward, but the old lady's expression was really terrifying, and she was so frightened that she thought she had made a mistake, and her steps about to step forward stopped.

The guess was right, she did make a mistake, but this 'mistake' was forced to her by someone else.

"Your fourth sister and seventh sister said that your cat scratched someone again, how can you justify it this time?" As soon as the old lady finished speaking, the fourth girl, Su Peiyao, walked over from behind the seat, lifted the sleeves on her arms, and the scratches on the four cat's paws were particularly obvious.

The deepest one of them was bloody, and it seemed that in order to frame Su Yunyao, Su Peiyao really did it to herself.

Seeing the old lady scolding Su Yunyao, the other people in the room looked at each other, some people were proud and some people were worried, such as the eldest lady, she was Su Yunyao's mother-in-law, and she must be more worried than anyone else at this moment.

The second lady who sat down from the eldest lady looked arrogant, and looked at Su Yunyao with half-drooping eyelids, as if she expected to win this time.

"Dare to ask the fourth sister, when did this scratch scratch?"

Su Peiyao was speechless for a while, and turned her head to look at the seventh girl, Su Huiyao.

And Su Huiyao's face hated that iron could not become steel, and she glanced at Su Peiyao while others were not paying attention.

In her eyes, the fourth sister who died early is like an obedient puppet, let her and her third sister control her.

Su Peiyao has always had no idea, she can teach her what to do, if she is asked to dig a pit for others with empty teeth and say something to deal with people, then she can't do it.

Su Huiyao also expected this, only to see her gently lift her skirt, walk to the center of the lobby with broken steps, kneel down beside Su Peiyao, and pear blossom said with rain, "Yun'er, don't blame the fourth sister and the seventh sister, the fourth sister talked to me before, and I don't want to make a big deal about it, I'm afraid that the little fox in your yard will be punished, but..." I went directly to the doctor to see it, and this alarmed my grandmother..."

What he said left the impression that the old lady loved her sister, and then she was afraid that it would have no weight when she heard other people's words.

Su Yunyao felt disgusting from the bottom of her heart when she saw Su Huiyao's behavior, but she couldn't have a seizure, except for her grandmother sitting on it, except for her father and the fourth lady, there was no one in this house, and almost the entire Su family's big house was present. It seems that Su Huiyao found a good time at this time, and she figured out that her grandmother would be angry because of the little fox, even though it was a heavy rainy day, she also summoned all of them.

"I just asked the fourth sister, when did the scratch on her arm scratch, the fourth sister hasn't said anything yet, why is the seventh sister in a hurry?" Su Yunyao ignored Su Huiyao's coy attitude, and also lifted the hem of her skirt and knelt on the ground, "Grandmother Mingjian, the little fox never hurts people, the first few times the fourth sister said that the little fox caught people, every time she couldn't come up with real evidence, how can you say that this time it was the little fox who caught it?" ”

Mrs. Su sat on the hollow carved sandalwood chair, her fingers with jade wrenches gripping the chair handle, and she was about to stand up.

Mama Zhou hurriedly stepped forward and held the old lady steadily.

"Your fourth sister didn't count the few times she told me before, just this time, why did she scratch like this!" The old lady's tone was full of distress, and she gently held Su Peiyao's arm, "I said that you should not raise a cat, look at your fourth sister to scratch it!" ”

Because now the eldest lady of Su Mansion is continuing to enter the door, the eldest lady who died before gave birth to two girls, one is the second Su Jingyao, and the other is the fourth Su Peiyao.

Usually, the old lady always takes a lot of pity for the two of them, thinking that these two children have lost their mothers, even if they are inherited under Mrs. Qin, they are not biological in the end. Usually good food and good clothing, not to mention, the second Su Jingyao still followed the old lady when she was a child, although she is married now, but she will go back to Su Mansion from time to time to see.

It's just that this fourth child is left...

Su Peiyao can't say that she is stupid, but it is easy to be used, Su Huiyao and they really believed it after a few words, thinking that her own mother died because Su Yunyao's mother entered the door, so she was bent on opposing Su Yunyao.

The injury on the arm at the moment looks ruthless, but I'm afraid it hurts a lot.

Su Huiyao really had a lot of thoughts, and this kind of thing also made Su Peiyao rush to the front, relying on the old lady to feel sorry for Su Peiyao, so she picked her up and injured her arm.

Seeing that Su Yunyao asked about the time of the scratch, Su Peiyao was hesitant on her side, and Su Huiyao simply cried louder, which only caused the old lady to feel uncomfortable for a while.

"How did Yun'er know, my sisters intended to hide it for you, but you didn't know the good intentions to ask, and my sister was too... It's also very aggrieved! ”

"What to say!" When the old lady heard this, she stood up and glared at Su Yunyao, and even the eldest lady Qin Manhuai, who was sitting on the side, was also glared at, "What else is there to hide for her?" How many times have you told her to send the cat away, and now that she has caused trouble, she still thinks she can hide it? What did I say last time? Beat that wild cat to death! How could the daughter of the Su family let a brute bully! ”

Su Yunyao was also aggrieved when she heard this, especially when her grandmother said that she was going to kill the little fox, she panicked for a while.
