"It's not early, so rest and go. The rest will be discussed tomorrow. ”

Jinnuo sighed and said to Yahuan Biluo, who was sitting under the lamp and writing. Closing the account book in her hand, she turned her head to face the woman in Luo Yi who was sitting at the table counting all kinds of pearls: "The second sister is still sick, and I don't know what to do at this time?" Now that there is an accident in the house, I am afraid that I will add a little more illness, and the second aunt will go back to take care of it. Left and right in such a situation, I can't be in a hurry. ”

Biro said yes and stepped back to get ready for washing.

Yun Niang turned her head to look at the sky outside the window, put Zhu Cui away, and stood up with a sigh: "I don't realize that it's close again!" Mei'er suddenly didn't feel good this morning, and she fainted two or three times, and she was fed another medicine at dinner, and now I don't know how. This child is not angry, if his body is tougher, not only will he not drag the eldest lady back, but he is afraid that he can share a little worry and undecided. ”

Yun Niang said that she had walked to Jinnuo, and her tail note was slightly choked.

Jin Nuo reluctantly smiled: "It's okay, now that the house looks like this, it is commendable that my aunt can still stick here." What's more, the second sister has not held me back, so that she can rest assured that she will recuperate, and when I will set a date for the prison visit of the director of the Bribery Division tomorrow, I will go to see her. ”

Yun Niang nodded, instructed her to rest two words early, and then walked out of Shuyuzhai with her head down.

Jin Nuo was the only one left in the embroidery pavilion, and the boudoir, which was already quiet, was even more quiet at the moment. She rubbed her temples, stood up and paced a few steps, and sighed into the rhombic window engraved with swastikas. Suddenly, through the gap in the window, he saw that the moonlight was very bright outside, so he walked to the porch.

This is the upstairs of the Shuyu Zhai where she lives, under the vermilion lacquer railing is a bend made of bluestone, it is a winter night, the corner of the ground reflects the sporadic cold light, and the bamboo repair of the road also comes out with the wind to brush the sound. Not far from the bamboo forest, there is a lake that looks like amber, and the cold moon is projected in the faint waves, lining this suddenly bad luck mansion as lonely as a valley.

Turning the imperial calendar up for a month, who in Beijing doesn't know the name of the Tianyi embroidery Zhuang Ye family? Even if they are not relatives of the emperor, officials below the fourth rank meet Master Ye, even if they don't make a move, they have to take the initiative to stop and say hello. Even though the status of Shinong industry and commerce has been the last in the past dynasties, since the first emperor implemented a new policy and issued a decree allowing qualified and powerful merchants to participate in the objects used by the royal government, the Ye family, who has five generations of embroidery workshop business qualifications, has not grown day by day?

Although Jinnuo has never seen the glory of the family when the first emperor personally gave the plaque of "Tianyi Embroidery Workshop", since she was born, how can she describe the life she has lived with a group of brocade clothes and jade food slaves? I remember that twelve years ago, when she was five years old, her mother took her into the palace to ask for peace for the then concubine Niangniang and the current queen mother, and got a bunch of treasured jade. There was a mother-in-law around her who was nervous and trembling to report to her mother, but her mother only wrote lightly after hearing this: Children love to play, and if they fall, they will fall, and there is no shortage of these things in the warehouse.

But twelve years later, the glory of the house is gone, last month's prince's wedding, the inside and outside of the great attention, the first half of the year from the three major embroidery workshops set the Ye family to undertake the wedding should be embroidered, this is really the icing on the cake. But who knew that Ye Rong, who has always been known for his prudence, made a mistake in the wedding clothes worn by the crown prince and the crown princess on the wedding day! The dragon and phoenix embroidered with colorful gold thread on the original red brocade were auspicious, but they accidentally got some wine during the salute, and they became a big taboo white dragon and white phoenix in court!

The royal wedding had such a failure, needless to say, Shengyan was furious, and when the edict was issued, Ye Rong, the owner of the embroidery village, and the shopkeepers of the embroidery village were arrested and imprisoned, and all the embroidery villages under the name of the Ye family were confiscated and temporarily collected as royal property! Nian Zaixian Emperor once cared for the Ye family, so he no longer connected with others, and the private property in his house was also retained in its original state, and he did not take a penny, but if there was a person who interceded for him, he would be convicted together.

Jinnuo looked at the lake, but he clasped his fingers and sighed. More than 20 days have passed since the incident, although the family property has not been confiscated, but finally sat on the empty mountain, heard that the old man returned to the house hopelessly, that day hundreds of slaves and miscellaneous servants have been successively cast to his master, even the father has always loved the third aunt and the fourth aunt, in order to avoid implication, but also took the nine-year-old concubine out of the house. The huge Ye Mansion has fallen into depression like an abandoned house,—— "the trees are falling and scattered", which is really the same truth through the ages.

"Miss Bi can watch her steps carefully."

When there were many thoughts, there was a faint light at the end of the bluestone slab, and Jin Nuo recognized that it was the cook lady with the copper basin and the lantern Biluo, and knew that they had come from the small kitchen to fetch water, so he straightened up and prepared to go back to the room.

I pushed open the door, only to find that there was a dark shadow in the house running towards the opposite window! She was startled and stepped back and shouted, "Who?" The black shadow turned back suddenly, and a pair of thin eyes appeared on his thin face!

Jinnuo's chest tightened, and she subconsciously wanted to retreat again, the black shadow suddenly pounced on her, and her back waist touched the railing under her tight avoidance, but the cold light flashed, and the person had already stabbed herself with a knife!

"Now that you've seen me, it's no wonder you've seen me!"

Jin Nuo only heard this sentence in his ears, so he couldn't help but turn over the railing, hit his head on the ground, and fell to the bluestone bricks downstairs with a "bang", splashing a puddle of red flowers.
