Chapter 32: Robbery while the fire is on
Lu Chengxuan secretly held Qinglian's hand, comforted her not to worry too much, helped herself up from the bench, and led herself through the crowd to Zhao Yiyun.
Now Zhao Yiyun's hair is scattered, and the skirt embroidered with peonies is also wrinkled, and he looks not much better than Lu Chengxuan, Lu Chenghuan was not lightly frightened on the side, and the other grandmothers and mothers-in-law also followed the gray face, the courtyard on the side was still burning, and the fire was dazzling and hot, which made people feel a lot warmer in the cold winter.
"This ...... Madame, look. ”
"Even if you are really dissatisfied with the old lady's treatment of Mama Cui and want to come to Cheng Xuan to vent your anger, but whether you beat Cheng Xuan or scold Cheng Xuan, you can't burn down the yard where Cheng Xuan lives, it's icy and snowy, and the New Year is approaching, if Cheng Xuan is harshly scolded by you and freezes to death, I'm afraid it will also affect your reputation and the reputation of the Lu family, which is really not good!" Lu Chengxuan's voice was weak, but she said it word by word.
"Even if Cheng Xuan is a concubine and a stepdaughter, Cheng Xuan is also a human being, she just wants to live in peace, I don't know where she offended the eldest lady, or hindered the eyes of the eldest lady, and please don't remember the villain, give Cheng Xuan a way to live."
Lu Chengxuan made a gesture and wanted to kneel in front of Zhao Yiyun, her voice was humble and pitiful, "Cheng Xuan is here to thank Mrs. for her great kindness." ”
"Fifth Miss, don't be forceful! It's clear that you will be punished if you make a mistake, why is this yard so good, no fire in the morning, no fire in the evening, did you do something! ”
"You still have to be a slave and a maid to teach you well, and you will be honest!"
Mrs. Song and the others still wanted to continue to beat Lu Chengxuan to finish the stick punishment that Lu Chengxuan deserved, regardless of Lu Chengxuan's body forcibly pulling, Qinglian protected her master to the death.
Zhao Yiyun's face turned pale.
The New Year is approaching, it is a good day for families to reunite and get together, if there is news that Lu Chengxuan is injured or died at this time, and even her yard has been burned, then Zhao Yiyun's notoriety is afraid to spread throughout Shengjing, and when they talk about it after tea and dinner in the future, they will laugh at her viciousness, and they will despise the children of the Zhao family.
Lu Chengxue and Lu Chenghuan are afraid that they will also be affected when they enter the palace.
Zhao Yiyun's hands in his sleeves couldn't help clenching, and his crystal clear nails were embedded in his palms, and he looked at the groveling Lu Chengxuan's eyes more profound and far-reaching.
Lu Chengxuan is taking advantage of the fire to rob!
For a long time, Zhao Yiyun almost squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "Lu Chengxuan, I really underestimated you in the past!" ”
"Stop!"
Lu Chenghuan, who was not lightly frightened, came back to his senses and said hurriedly, "Mother! ”
They made such a big noise, just to dispose of Lu Chengxuan, but instead of understanding this little slut, they also gave her an excuse to slander her mother in front of so many people in the house!
How can you give up easily?
I don't want Zhao Yiyun to have a mind, and no one can persuade him.
"The weather is dry and dry, and the brazier is inseparable in winter, our fifth lady's side courtyard is because of the old furnishings to cause the fire, this is an accident, if the side courtyard is to be repaired and perfected, I am afraid it will take a while, can not just let our five miss freeze to the cold." Zhao Yiyun's voice was like cold snow.
"But there is no idle residence in the house, and I can't move it in a short time, so let's move the fifth lady to Hongmei Courtyard!"
Zhao Yiyun's eyes flashed with fine light, and when the words fell, he didn't want to see what others were looking at, so he threw up his sleeves and left.
Zhao Yiyun is gone, and the others have absolutely no intention of staying, and a farce is over, leaving behind almost the ashes of the side courtyard and Lu Chengxuan's master and servant.
Lu Chenghuan followed behind Zhao Yiyun, glared at Lu Chengxuan fiercely and left.
Lu Chengxuan was helped up by Qinglian, and said in a faint voice in the direction of Zhao Yiyun's departure, "Thank you for the grace of the eldest lady." ”
"Miss, are you alright?"
The noisy side courtyard instantly quieted down again, only Lu Chengxuan's master and servant were left, Lu Chengxuan finally didn't have to grit his teeth to insist, his body instantly softened, fortunately Qinglian was supported by the side, and he didn't dare to sit down directly, Lu Chengxuan could clearly feel that the close-fitting fur was already soaked.
"The slave and maid looked at you with a pale face, but in addition to the stick torture, did the eldest lady torture you by other means? The slave maid will go and get a doctor for you first. Qinglian turned around and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Lu Chengxuan in time.
"I'm fine, it's just that I've been hit with a few sticks, I'm not so delicate, you go to the small kitchen first and take out the package I packed under the kang, let's go to Hongmei Courtyard to settle it first."
"Are you really okay? …… Be. ”
Lu Chengxuan's attitude was resolute, Qinglian couldn't resist her, so she could only step up and run towards the small kitchen.
Fortunately, the small kitchen and the side courtyard were far away and were not affected, otherwise Lu Chengxuan's entire net worth would have been wiped out with this fire.
Lu Chengxuan bit the corner of her pale lip and looked between the ruins, and finally found the black charcoal brazier, Lu Chengxuan supported her body, and scattered the contents of the charcoal brazier in the corner of the wall where no one noticed, everything was done neatly, and then he and Qinglian left in a hurry.
Hongmei Courtyard was previously Lu Chengyin's residence in the mansion, and since Lu Chengyin entered the palace as a concubine, he has been free, and there are only three or three minions in the courtyard, and it was very unexpected to see Lu Chengxuan's appearance.
Lu Chengxuan simply said that it was Zhao Yiyun's order, so he and Qinglian picked a west wing room to live in, and held the burden that Qinglian took back in his arms.
Lu Chengxuan lay on the side of the clinical kang regardless of her image, covered with a mattress embroidered with lilac embroidered auspicious clouds, and smiled with relief.
Qinglian helped Lu Chengxuan deal with the wound on her waist and buttocks with her hands and feet, and asked suspiciously, "Miss, what's in this package?" You're such a baby! ”
Qinglian stared at Lu Chengxuan with watery eyes and looked at Lu Chengxuan curiously.
At that time, the yard was burning, and Miss was beaten, but she still cherished this burden, she had been with Miss all the time, and she didn't see anything rare for Miss, and I don't know when Lu Chengxuan secretly hid it by herself!
Lu Chengxuan mysteriously opened the package, "It doesn't matter if I'm beaten, but I stayed up all night making these things, and whether we can live comfortably in the future depends on them!" ”
"Of course you have to put it away carefully!"
"I hid it when I sent you to reply to the old lady, and I knew that Zhao Yiyun wouldn't let me go so easily when he heard the news!"
The baggage contained the same delicate embroidery, all of which were small objects, such as handkerchiefs, winds, purses, sachets, etc......
Qinglian was stunned, "Miss, what are you doing so much?" ”
"We won't be able to run out of it for long!"
