Chunying sat at the desk, seeing that Zhou Nian was silent, her heart sank little by little, and she only felt a chill on her body.

After a while, Zhou Niancai said: "That girl named Sister Lian...... It's really self-defeating! Now that she is dead, no matter how much she does, she can't make up for it, and what we have to do now is to consider the living. Now is not a good time to talk about things, so don't make a noise until I discuss it with Brother You'er before making a decision. ”

Chunying lowered her head and said nothing. Zhou Nian was stunned and said softly: "I know you feel uncomfortable, but this is also a helpless thing." Brother Chang'er...... Li Chang is about to marry the third lady of the Liang family, if something happens at this moment, he will certainly be unlucky, and the reputation of the Hou Mansion will also be greatly damaged. In the end, he is still the flesh and blood of the Hou Ye, whether it is the Hou Ye, or the old lady or the wife, he will not abandon him, if he is to whitewash the peace and erase the matter of Sister Lian, wouldn't he die in vain? And when the family affairs are settled, and the people outside no longer pay attention to Li Chang, they will slowly inform Hou Ye of his crimes, and Hou Ye will definitely punish him heavily! Wouldn't it be better that he might be taught a lesson without alarming outsiders? ”

Chunying only felt that there was a breath of air blocking her chest, which made her uncomfortable. Intellectually, she understood that Zhou Nian's suggestion was correct, but emotionally, she was a little unacceptable, so she kept silent.

Zhou Nian looked at her and felt very uncomfortable: "Maybe my words are a bit excessive, but it will not be good for you to make trouble at this time." Hou Ye will never tolerate the reputation of the Hou Mansion, maybe ...... In order to keep things down, I will send you and the girl named Manru to the village to avoid a few days. Didn't you say that you wanted to ask for more money and save more money so that you could redeem yourself and start a small business in the future? But if the Hou Ye is tired of you, how can I bring your family over in the future? ”

Chunying was reminded by his words, yes, she. There is still a family to take care of, and you can't be impulsive, but ...... She asked softly, "What about Sister Lian?" She died in vain?! ”

Zhou Nian lowered his eyelids: "Let's see how good Li Chang is. Later, he killed someone in a moment of anger, and he always had to cover it up afterwards. I think most people will say that Sister Lian accidentally slipped and fell off the rockery, if no one else saw it, this would probably be the case. If you hide the truth, with you and that Man Ru as witnesses, there will always be a day when Li Chang will be atoned for! Sister Nalian's family...... I'll say hello to Brother You'er and ask him to tell the steward to pay more money. He raised his eyes and looked at Chunying again: "It's really not a good time now, just bear with it." ”

Chunying bit her lip and said in a dumb voice: "Nian...... Young Master Nian, I know you're for my good, I'm ...... I also knew that I was impulsive just now. I should make a noise to scare the second young master away and prevent him from killing people...... Or just don't say a word, as if you didn't see it...... Even now, I should listen to you and forget about it, if the third young master doesn't say it for the rest of my life, I won't tell anyone else for the rest of my life. Just like Manru...... Indifferently looking at the death of others, only one's own interests are the most important...... I know it's smart! ”

Zhou Nian looked at her with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "Chun'er......"

"But...... Isn't this kind of cleverness chilling?! Chunying felt a breath. Impulsively, I can't help but want to say everything in my heart, "The second young master killed someone, in order to cover up his ugly things!" But for the sake of the reputation of the Hou Mansion, he can't be exposed! Sister Lian is stupid and looking for death by herself! Therefore, if she dies, she will die, as long as she gives her family a little more silver, she will be worthy of her. I know that the Hou Mansion is currently fighting with others, and the second young master has a great role, so I can't touch him, and it's not worth it for the sake of a stupid little girl, so even if you want to punish him, you have to wait until you need to hit him in the future! Young Master Nian, that's what you just wanted to say, right?! ”

Zhou Nian was dumbfounded, and his face was slightly pale.

"That's human life...... Chun Ying said in a trembling voice, "If you die, you can't live!" Lotus. Sister is a little girl, she is still very stupid, but she ...... It's still a human life! Can a human life be compensated for with a few taels of silver?! ”

Zhou Nian suddenly felt cold sweat: "Chun'er......"

"Master Hou knows, how will he punish the second young master?" Chun Ying's expression has. Suddenly, "Scolding? Or how many boards to play? Or kneel for an hour or two?! The most important thing is to let him go out of the house and stand on his own, right? But he is still the eldest young master with fine clothes and fine food, and he will not suffer at all...... Maybe he will be angry, because after all, he is not punished for killing someone, but for getting in the way of other people's eyes, right? ”

Zhou Nian's face was pale. Reaching out to support his desk, he suddenly realized what the suggestion he had just made meant.

"What stupid thing am I talking about......" Chun Ying wiped her face and squeezed out a smile, "The second young master is the master, what qualifications does my little girl have to go against him?" Read what the young master said, and I will remember them one by one. Feel relieved...... I'm not a fool, now that everyone is shouting, Sister Lian won't survive, I still have to take care of myself and my family...... In fact, I am just an ordinary person, like Manru, who is most concerned about myself and the life and death of others...... What does it have to do with me? She smiled wryly and lowered her head, muttering, "I just don't know...... One day, if I happen to this kind of thing...... Wouldn't others walk by coldly, as if they didn't see it......"

Zhou Nian suddenly straightened up: "Chun'er...... You...... As soon as he saw Brother You'er, let him come and ask him to invite Master Hou if he could. ”

Chun Ying raised her eyes to look at him: "What do you ask Master Hou to do?" Are you going to tell him now? But you're not saying it's not a good time? ”

Zhou Nian opened his mouth and sighed, "I have to do something for that girl...... I won't tell you it, just say that Sanqing saw it from afar, and after you go back, don't vent your mouth, don't make Li Chang suspicious. ”

Chunying glanced at him deeply, silently bowed and retired, and went out, only to realize that she had forgotten to put down her baggage. remembered that a few hours ago, he was extremely careful to sew a shirt for Zhou Nian, but now he only felt ironic. He actually ...... is also a son of a family, even if he is temporarily down, he doesn't really take a little girl seriously, right? How could she think that she was any different because he was kind and kind to her? She is actually the same as Sister Lian, but she is just an ant in the eyes of these high-ranking and powerful children.

She stuffed the burden to Sanqing, only said that it was a new dress made for their master and servant, and hurried away. Along the way, she was self-reflecting, and she couldn't talk casually to those young masters who had the identity of "master" in the future, she should recognize her current identity. If you want to get out of the country, if you want to leave the house, if you want to live a good life, it is all false, the key is to survive safely.

Chunying looked sullenly at the rockeries in the distance, there were already a lot of people around, probably Sister Lian's body was discovered, right? She froze in place, hesitated for a moment, and then gritted her teeth and resisted the urge to walk over and continued in the direction of the gate.

Coming to the gate of the garden, there were already a bunch of mothers-in-law in the gatehouse talking about the news that "the second young master's girl fell down on the rockery", someone seemed to have gone to see the scene, and talked about how terrible the corpse was, how much blood was shed, and said it clearly, which caused everyone around to be amazed. But instead of joining them, one of the mother-in-laws stood by the door and whispered to a man outside the door. The man was quite unfamiliar, with a black spot the size of a copper coin on his right face, and his eyes were slick as he looked at the people who came and went.

When Chunying lowered her head and walked over, she was stopped by him: "Are you ...... Where's the girl? ”

Chunying frowned: "Who are you?" This is an inner house! "She didn't like this guy and felt that he wasn't a good thing at first glance.

The man sneered disdainfully, but the mother-in-law beside him replied for Chunying: "This is Chunying from Huanhuaxuan, who often comes to the garden." Then she turned her head and asked Chunying, "When did you come in?" Why didn't I see it? As soon as these words came out, the man stared at Chunying.

Chun Ying took two steps back and said lightly: "When I came in, I didn't see my mother, when did my mother come?" The woman coughed twice a little uncomfortably: "Maybe it was when I went to the convenience just now......" Thinking that she was lazy and went to Chen's house, she couldn't help but glance at the man with a weak heart, and waved her hand at Chunying: "Go, go, what's there to see about the dead?" One or two are going to join in the fun! ”

Chunying didn't correct her misunderstanding, she went out of the door, who didn't know how many steps she walked, she found Manru standing behind the tree in front of her, looking this way with a pale face, she hesitated slightly, simply looked away, and directly crossed Manru back to Huanhuaxuan. Manru's footsteps hurriedly followed, and he asked with a bit of eagerness: "Chun'er, have you just seen the man with a big black mole on his face?" Others said that the person was Pan Lao Liu, who was under the second young master, and he ......"

"What does that have to do with me?" Chunying stopped, but didn't look back, "I don't know anything, I don't see anything, don't you think the same way?!" ”

Manru was stunned, watching Chunying go away, but she was so anxious that she was about to cry. She could see it clearly just now, the man ...... The man was holding a ......

Half an hour later, the man with a big black mole on his face walked into the outer study of Yingyue Hall, Li Chang, the second young master of the Hou Mansion, was sitting behind the desk, staring at a book of "Four Books and Chapters and Sentences Notes", but he didn't read a word, and when he saw the man enter the door, he hurriedly threw away the book and greeted him, and was about to ask, when he suddenly remembered that someone around might have heard it, and hurriedly closed the doors and windows, so he rushed to the man's side and asked, "How?!" “

"I, Pan Lao Liu, is out of the horse, what else is the second young master worried about?" Pan Lao Liu smiled and took out a small piece of cloth from his sleeve, "This was pulled from the palm of that girl's hand, and it must have torn the second young master's clothes during the struggle." The second young master remembers to take that dress out of the house and burn it, otherwise it will not be good for people to see it. ”

Li Chang took the piece of cloth and gritted his teeth ruthlessly, fortunately he was smart and knew how to send someone to deal with the aftermath, otherwise if someone found out, he would suffer. Sister Lian's dead girl, if she dies, she won't call him Ansheng!

Pan Lao Liu said again: "I also checked all the way and wiped off all the footprints left by the second young master." When the second young master entered the garden, it was my mother-in-law who was on an errand in the gatehouse, and I had already explained to her that I was not allowed to tell others, so the second young master should rest assured! ”

Li Chang breathed a sigh of relief slightly, but when he heard Pan Lao Liu say "It's just ......", he was worried again: "Just what?!" ”

"It's just that near Sister Lian's corpse, I picked up something." Pan Lao Liu took out a pink and purple bead flower from his sleeve and spread it on the palm of his hand, "Maybe it was a girl who accidentally fell there before, but there is wind today, but there is no dust on the bead flower, I am afraid that it has just fallen not long ago, I am worried that when the second young master makes a move, there will be other girls." The second young master still asked one or two trustworthy eldest sisters to secretly check to see which girl's thing was this, and when it was dropped, so that it could be foolproof. ”

Li Chang took the bead flower and squinted his eyes: "This kind of rough thing is worthless, I'm afraid it was brought by the little girls." Recently, the third child seems to be tinkering with some beads, most of them are people in his courtyard! After thinking about it, I only felt depressed: "His girl has never had much contact with the people in my courtyard, and even if she asked, it would only make him suspicious." How do I go about it? ”

Pan Lao Liu approached him with a smile: "What's so difficult about this?" Didn't the second young master forget that the Nanqi girl has gone to the wife's house now, and it is not a strange thing to sit in Huanhuaxuan. She's been waiting for you for years, so there's always some incense, right? ”

Li Chang squinted, and then looked at the bead flower, the purple glass bead at the core of the flower flashed in his palm, reflecting a cold light.
