Two hundred and forty-six: Clue

"Girl, when you were leaving, you asked Huaixiang and Liuyuan to inquire, and they inquired a little bit." Songyin remembered this and told Su Yunyao.

Su Yunyao immediately put down the comb, "Really? Call them in. ”

Liuwan and Huaixiang entered the room one after the other, and Songyin closed the door inside.

"Girl, the slaves and maids borrowed the connections of the sixth young lady, and inquired about the maid magpie of Yingxiaju who had a good relationship outside, surnamed Chang, and the two had secretly met outside before, and it seemed that they were quite in love."

Su Yunyao nodded, motioned for Liuyuan to continue.

"Later, during this period of time, the magpie didn't go out often, even if she went out, there were several people watching her, and the slave maid looked for someone to follow, and found that she hadn't met the surnamed Chang, and the surname Chang hadn't appeared, and there was no news for so long, as if the world had evaporated."

Hearing this, Su Yunyao thought about it carefully.

"Where did you get all this?" she asked. ”

Liuyuan said, "It's the sixth young lady that Huaixiang is looking for, the girl that the sixth young lady is looking for, your cousin, Cheng Gongzi left two snake heads for the sixth young lady before going south, and used the snake head to hit the inside, so I inquired about the news." ”

"Something to do with the head of the snake? Since it is related to the head of the snake, it is too strange for the surname Chang to disappear suddenly. Su Yunyao whispered, feeling that this matter seemed to be clear, but it seemed that something was missing.

He Nianning did things quickly, and now she took back the two snakeheads that Cheng Tao left for her, so that Cao Qianlian and the others would not find out about this move.

Huaixiang said, "Girl, the slave maid has also found some." ”

As she spoke, she took out two folded pieces of paper from her sleeve and handed them to Su Yunyao.

The paper was written in a pastry and dim sum shop, and the person who bought the dim sum had a name that made Su Yunyao feel very familiar, and after thinking about it in her mind for a while, she blurted out, "Chen Xian!" Isn't Chen Xian the one who wronged the fifth sister in Yingqiu Lake for having an affair with him? ”

"Exactly!" Huaixiang said as she took out the page at the back of the paper and showed it to her: "Chen Xian, he often buys snacks in that shop, and that shop was originally someone else's, and was later bought by Qingde Houfu to make a dowry for the six young ladies, and the six young ladies realized that something was wrong. ”

Otherwise, who can catch Chen Xian?

"He must have something to do with the Cao family! It's also related to those snakeheads! Su Yunyao affirmed.

"At the same time, the Sixth Young Lady looked for someone to follow Chen Xian and found that he lived in a private house outside the city, and he was afraid of startling the snake, so the Sixth Young Lady didn't check who was inside, but it seems that Chen Xian has lived there for a long time."

It's really hard work, Su Yunyao has always been unable to figure out the relationship between Chen Xian and the snakehead, maybe he is a breakthrough, and if he finds him, he may be able to solve it.

"Isn't the head of the mountain bandits outside the capital almost wiped out? Could it be that there is something hidden in the farm? ”

Huaixiang said, "Yes, there must be, those people are like cutting leeks, cutting a stubble and growing a stubble, and they can't be cleaned." ”

Especially this year, the rain in the south is too heavy, the treasury is tight, and the Lin family is a demon every day, and it is catching up with major events such as the poisoning of the queen's funeral and the princess.

Su Yunyao sneered and said, "I really don't know what happened to our emperor, my grandmother told me that the first emperor didn't say that there were no snake heads, at least those snake heads didn't dare to be so rampant, since Lin Xianfei was favored, the snake heads have become more and more arrogant, just like an epidemic, and now the houses outside are rummaging around, and you will definitely be able to find a few hidden snake heads!" ”

Su Yunyao didn't dare to say this kind of rebellious words outside, so she whispered it in her room.

"Are there any movements of the Cao family these days?" She asked again.

"Before, the lord has been grounded in the second lady, but a few days ago, the seventh girl returned to the door, and saw that the second lady was grounded, and she talked back to the lord, and now no one dares to ban the second lady's feet, no, I walked around the Hengwang Mansion with the seventh girl, and when I came back, I didn't take our family seriously."

"Did she and Seventh Sister go to Hengwang's Mansion?" Su Yunyao was a little unconvinced.

"But isn't it, I heard that the seventh girl was favored by His Royal Highness King Heng, not to mention how arrogant she was when she came back, or did she take the initiative to ask the second lady to go around with her."

"Sure enough, cats are looking for cats, mice are looking for mice, King Heng is really a match for her! There is also the Cao family, it is true that the bamboo shoots are good, but it doesn't work when you go to her, if you sincerely want to bring them down, I'm afraid it will take a little effort. ”

The next day, when they went to Chang Xizhai to greet the old lady, everyone saw Cao Qianlian again.

She is not at all different now than before, she is wearing silk and satin, gold and silver jewelry, and when she enters Chang Xizhai, it can be said that she doesn't look at others at all, and when she sees Su Yunyao and Su Moyao coming back, she looks at them with the tip of her chin.

"Yo, this is teaching your own daughter to be your own virtue, and I'm embarrassed to come out and show my face, but I really don't want to be cheeky at all." Su Moyao said in a weird way.

Cao Qianlian naturally understood that this was talking about her, and she was neither angry nor annoyed, she only smiled faintly, held the golden hairpin above her head and said, "Look, look, our ten girls came back from a long trip, why are they so angry?" What's the matter, you are angry in Jingyang? ”

The old lady reprimanded in a low voice, "Shut up! My Su family has nothing to do with you, don't open your mouth and close your mouth, our family, it's disgusting! ”

"Yes!" Cao Qianlian got up and saluted, and the smile on her face was very dazzling, "It's really Hui'er, she has just entered the Hengwang Mansion and has not completely gained a foothold, and when she has a firm foothold, she will take me away, the old lady doesn't look down on me, to be honest, I don't really like the old lady you." ”

In a weird tone, the angry old lady grabbed the chair under her suddenly, "Who put this into Chang Xi Zhai!" Get out of here! Get out! ”

"Don't, I still have to do my filial piety in front of you!" Cao Qianlian said and took two steps in the direction of the old lady, "Now I am also a person with a different identity, but I am not upright in front of you, do you still have to praise me?" Why are you in a hurry to get me out? ”

"What's different about you?" Su Yunyao asked, "I heard that the seventh sister has won the favor of His Royal Highness King Heng, and I want to congratulate her here, but it's a pity that she is not there, but it is the same to say to the second lady." ”

"Oh?" Cao Qianlian slowly turned her head and asked with a smile, "What does the eleventh girl have to say to my Hui'er?" ”

"Sister Zhu Seventh Sister, you can firmly grasp the heart of His Royal Highness King Heng, I heard that there are groups of wives and concubines in King Heng's mansion, and the most favored concubine has not survived for half a year, I hope that Seventh Sister can be stronger than those people, at least let the second lady have two more days of insolence, right?"

"You!" The expression on Cao Qianlian's face changed, but in the end he returned to his smile, "Then borrow the auspicious words of the eleventh girl!" Yingxiaju gave me a good bird's nest, and when it was cold, the taste was not good, so I left first. ”

The old lady didn't say anything, no one spoke, so she went out by herself, twisted the waist of the water snake and left.

"This slut!" The old lady pinched her eyebrows angrily.

"Grandmother doesn't have to be angry with her, she doesn't count." Su Yunyao got up and pinched her shoulders for her, "She is a concubine, and her two daughters have also become concubines, is this scenery?" There will be times when she cries later. ”

"But you can see her shameless posture, so she doesn't care if she is a concubine."

Su Yunyao continued to speak of relief, "Grandmother, rest assured, no matter how much the seventh sister is favored, it is useless, if the granddaughter guesses well, King Heng favors her and treats her well, nothing more than trying to use her to disgust our Su family, let's ignore it, when King Heng sees that the seventh sister has no usable value, he will not let her be arrogant, and besides, the concubine room in King Heng's mansion grabbed a lot of money, why didn't half a child be born?" Princess Heng is ruthless, she will never allow other women to give birth to King Heng's children. ”

Su Jinyao also nodded and said, "Eleventh sister-sister is right, granddaughter heard that there were several pregnant concubines in King Heng's mansion before, and then the child was aborted, and the adults were gone, and King Heng didn't care and didn't check, it seems that he likes to mess around, Princess Heng agreed, but she must get rid of the pregnant concubines." ”

"Hui Yao, no matter what she says, she is also a child of our Su family, I can't bear to end up like that, alas..."The old lady sighed, "It's just that she walked the road by herself, whether it was good or bad, she took it herself, anyway, your father had already cleared up the father-daughter relationship with her in front of King Heng, and she would suffer the good and bad of the life herself." ”

But if Su Huiyao falls, her mother Cao Qianlian will naturally not be arrogant anymore.

Without a backer, she is like a lonely leaf floating in the four seas.

After another rain, Su Qingyao's family affairs also arrived.

The Su family rushed to Su Hui's house, Fang Li greeted the guests in front of the gate with joy, and many people came to celebrate.

Fang Li's facial features are already atmospheric, and he is wearing a happy red dress today, which seems to be more pleasing to the eye.

In the crowd, Su Qinyao sat in the corner of a little girl, she was no longer as high as before, and she was not as talkative as before, today was obviously her sister's marriage, but she seemed to be very unhappy.

The people of the Ding family carried a sedan chair to greet their relatives, the sound of suona was earth-shattering, the crackling of firecrackers did not stop, Su Wanyao and Su Yunyao hid far away, they were afraid of this sound.

Su Moyao came to the front, blocking the door with a few brothers for a while, and begging for red envelopes with the people of the Ding family for a while.

Qin Manhuai threw her handkerchief and wiped her face: "Look at you!" Running with a stinky sweat, where does it look like a girl's house? ”

Su Moyao smiled, broke away from Qin Manhuai and ran to Su Ying'an's side, snatched a piece of his fruit and ran away.

"Not angry at all." Qin Manhuai said helplessly.
