At sunset, the fiery red sunset slowly spreads on the edge of the sky, like a flame about to be extinguished, no matter how much you struggle, you will eventually melt into the thick night.

The dispute between the wives was not over, Qin Tian and the other maids stood in the outer courtyard, and they could faintly hear the voices coming from inside, some of the eldest wife and some of the second aunt, although they couldn't hear what they said, but they could feel the fierceness.

At this time, Cuiwei walked out of the inner courtyard, went to Qin Tian's side, handed over a pair of embroidered shoes in her hand to Qin Tian, and said, "This is the shoes that Miss Fang asked me to help her make, saying that she likes the patterns I make, they are not fancy and very comfortable." I said I'd send it to her tonight, but now I can't leave, you can help me send it to her and let her try her feet to see if it's suitable. Bring me a message back! After speaking, he looked at her and smiled, touched her head, and whispered: "There will probably not be dinner at this time, if you haven't come back when the meal is served, I will leave it for you." ”

Qin Tian agreed with a smile, didn't say much, took the shoes and turned around and left.

Miss Fang's green courtyard is not far from the eldest lady's courtyard, the eldest lady pitied her background, afraid of being bullied by the subordinates in the family, and deliberately arranged her closer, which was regarded as supporting her and warning those subordinates to have a little eyes.

Coming out of the big lady's yard, walk along a bluestone path for ten minutes to reach the green courtyard. Along the way, there are many fake stones, flowers and trees, bamboo forests, accompanied by the breeze of early summer nights, there is a kind of refreshing heart.

When he was about to arrive at the Green Courtyard, Qin Tian felt a small pebble in his shoes.

This ancient embroidered shoe is comfortable to wear, but the mouth of the shoe is looser, and it is easy to get into small stones, Qin Tian turned his head and saw that there was no one around, so he didn't pay so much attention, jumped next to a fake stone with one foot, and leaned on the fake stone.

As soon as he took off his shoes and poured out the pebbles inside, he heard a delicate female voice not far away: "Sister Fang, the scenery here is really good, every time I come to play with you, I can't help but pull you here to talk!" ”

Then there was another gentle female voice: "Yan Xing, thank you for the fourth lady's concern, and often come over to accompany me to relieve my boredom." ”

One is "Miss Fang" and the other is "Miss Four", it seems that it is the rumored Fourth Miss Zhuang Mingxi, and the future wife of the house, Miss Fang.

Qin Tian couldn't help but be a little entangled, the two of them obviously didn't realize that they should go out to pay their respects?

But if they turn out from behind the fake rock, they say, "What are you doing sneakily hiding there?" "I can't get rid of the suspicion of eavesdropping......

Miss Fang is just that, I heard that this fourth lady is a powerful master, it's not fun to mess with this aunt!

The fourth lady smiled in her voice, looking very affectionate, "It won't be long before Sister Fang will become my sister-in-law, we are a family, Sister Fang doesn't need to be so polite!" ”

Miss Fang didn't say anything, thinking that it was because she was shy, and women in ancient times were always very thin-skinned when they said these words.

But then the fourth young lady made Qin Tian completely dispel the decision to go out.

The fourth lady said: "It shouldn't be long, after my brother and Miss Liu get married, the eldest lady will handle the marriage of my sister and my brother Xinzhong!" ”

Qin Tian's neck shrank, and he hurriedly squatted behind the fake stone, held his breath, took care of his skirt and everything, and resolutely did not let any corner of his clothes be revealed.

Fortunately, the sky was dark, and Miss Fang and the others didn't notice Qin Tian at all.

"I ...... And faithful? Miss Fang's voice was full of surprise, and at the same time, she stopped, and the fourth lady also stopped.

Fatally, the two of them stopped outside the fake rock.

Qin Tian's atmosphere didn't dare to come out.

I can't stop slandering in my heart, two eldest ladies, is there anything important that can't be said in the house? You are admiring the moon and blowing the wind, very freehand, but you have forced me to become a villain who eavesdrops......

Naturally, the two outside didn't hear Qin Tian's heart,

The fourth lady didn't seem to notice Miss Fang's abnormality at all, and said very naturally, "My brother has long liked Miss Liu, does Sister Fang know about Miss Liu?" The Liu family is a famous silk merchant in Sioux City, and their family's Fenghua brocade is still a tribute from the palace, how many celebrities can't ask for it! Miss Liu herself is even more beautiful, delicate and generous, but she is not an ordinary woman from a small family can be compared, since she decided on this family business, my brother is not to mention how happy! ”

Combined with the words that the eldest lady drank before, Qin Tian already understood what was going on. It's just that Zhuang Xinchuan disliked Miss Fang and climbed another good Yue family, so he wanted to push Miss Fang to the third young master. Where is this treating his fiancée, it is simply treating a piece of goods, if you don't want it, you will stuff it into others if you don't want trouble. As for Miss Fang's thoughts, it naturally didn't matter at all.

No wonder the eldest lady is so angry, and she is too bullying.

After the fourth lady finished speaking, Miss Fang was silent for a long time, and after a while, she held back a few words: "But...... But ......"

Although her emotions were calm, her trembling voice had already revealed her anger and helplessness.

The fourth lady interrupted her unhurriedly: "My aunt has also seen that Miss Liu, and she likes that girl very much, who is my aunt, presumably Miss Fang also knows, Mrs. Zhizhou, usually takes care of our banker, who dares to offend easily?" ”

Then, the tone changed again, with a bit of naivety: "I heard that when Sister Fang's uncle passed away last month, your aunt didn't even send you a letter, or the eldest aunt heard about it afterwards, speaking of which, your eldest aunt is really unkind, fortunately the eldest aunt took you into the house, otherwise, I don't know how sad your life should be now." Sister Fang doesn't have to be afraid, marrying Brother Xinzhong in the future will be our Zhuang family, and our Zhuang family will protect your sister and brother whatever they say! ”

Hearing this, Qin Tian was secretly frightened. This little girl seems to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, but in modern terms, she is only the age when she has just entered high school, but she has such a powerful mind.

first said that Miss Fang was not worthy of Zhuang Xinchuan, and pointed out that this matter was supported by Mrs. Zhizhou, and finally ruthlessly pointed out that their sisters and brothers had no way out, and if they really wanted to go against the Zhuang family, there would be no good end! The words are even eliminated, but they don't make people feel aggressive.

"What about the eldest lady, sometimes she is too solid-eyed, this kind of character, it is easy to suffer......" The fourth lady stopped, and her voice suddenly sank, "Sister Fang, the eldest lady treats you like a mountain, you shouldn't make it difficult for her, right?" ”

Miss Fang was speechless, as if she didn't exist.

The fourth lady suddenly smiled again: "Okay, it's not early, sister, I won't delay my sister's rest, I'll go back first!" ”

After speaking, the fourth lady raised her voice to summon her maid-in-law, laughed and slowly walked away, and soon her voice could not be heard.

There was silence outside the fake stone, so quiet that Qin Tian almost thought that Miss Fang had left, if she hadn't heard Miss Fang's voice all along, she wouldn't still be squatting here and didn't dare to move, enduring the soreness and numbness coming from her legs.

She rubbed her legs and felt so uncomfortable that she wanted to cry.

Suddenly, a small sobbing sound came, intermittent, forbearing, and depressing, like the helpless and painful whimper of a small animal after being injured, and like the sorrow of a lonely migratory bird facing a bright future.

Qin Tian's heart seemed to pinch when he listened,

Fang Yanxing's humiliation and anger, her helplessness and sorrow were transmitted through her crying, which went straight to Qin Tian's heart, slowly occupying her entire chest, making her eyes red unconsciously.

Fang Yanxing cried for a long, long time, so long that Qin Tian couldn't help but want to go out to comfort her several times, but thinking of her identity, she didn't dare to be reckless after all.

The night is still so dark, the wind is still so light, the scenery is still beautiful, Miss Fang's tears are as humble as water vapor in the air, hidden in a corner of the banker's mansion, disappearing into the dark night.

Except for Qin Tian, who was one stone away, no one would understand her heartache at this time.

I don't know how long it took for Miss Fang to stop crying and slowly walked in the direction of the Green Courtyard.

When Qin Tian wanted to stand up, she found that her legs were numb and unconscious, and after walking a few steps, the soles of her feet were as uncomfortable as pinpricks, and she jumped on the spot a few times, which was slightly better.

She walked in the direction of the green courtyard.
