Liuli looked fixedly, the person who hung his head and said nothing was not Huanhua! Xindao is looking for her for something, and I don't want to send it to the eyes.

Huanhua also looked over when she heard the voice, lifted her skirt and quickly rushed down the bridge: "Liuli!" ”

Liuli was busy looking left and right, and Huanhua said: "Don't look at it, just me and Caiping." The third sister and the fifth sister all went to the Yuwang Mansion with the old man and the lady to pay New Year's greetings, and I got up early and had a headache, so I didn't go. ”

Liuli said: "I still have a headache and blow the wind here?" Go, go to the Buddha hall and take refuge. ”

Huanhua glanced at the direction of the small cross courtyard and said, "I want to go to your house and sit." ”

Liuli is a little embarrassed, Yu and Qi are still holding back a battle and haven't had time to fight, as soon as Huanhua goes to the small cross courtyard, Shuangxi must tell Yu that Yu is not sure how to use the topic to play!

Huanhua saw her hesitation, so she said, "Don't worry, I'll just sit and leave, just see what kind of place you live." ”

Liuli had to nod and asked Begonia to go back to make tea and get snacks first.

When he arrived at the small cross courtyard, Huanhua saw that the ash on the wall was mottled, and the courtyard gate was just a simple bamboo door, and his brows furrowed. Liuli pushed open the bamboo door and said with a smile: "Go in!" "The scene inside the courtyard is revealed.

The house was made of green bricks, and the roof was also covered with glazed tiles, but the luster of the glazed glass had long since lost over time, and the walls were covered with traces of yellow mud flowing due to water leakage. Most of the paint on the pillars that supported the beams had been peeled off, the openwork on the railings had broken four or five gaps, and a small black and white cat was lying in one of the holes and patting the moss at the foot of the pillars.

Huanhua was speechless for a long time, and said: "When I went to the garden with nothing to do, I also knew where this place was, but I didn't care about it,—— I didn't expect the nine girls in He Mansion to live in such a dilapidated house." ”

Liuli let her into the room, Shuangxi personally took the refreshments up, and after she left, Liuli said: "There is nothing wrong with living in this house, although it is broken, but it is rare to be quiet, if you want me to live in the front yard, I am afraid that the days will be worse." ”

I don't know what hurt Huanhua when she said this, I saw that her expression gradually darkened, and a pair of small shoulders also hung down, "Yes, although the front yard is lively, where is there a time when people can worry about it?" ”

Liuli looked at her depressed, remembered that she had been a little worried since she recovered from her illness, and she looked like that on the bridge again, thinking that something was wrong, so she said: "Why did Huan'er say this?" ”

Huanhua glanced at Cai Ping next to her, and Cai Ping hurriedly said: "Girl, sit down, I'll ask Rui'er for an embroidery pattern." "He went out. Seeing this, Liuli also made her eyes go down.

There were no outsiders in the room, and Huanhua turned red and said, "I won't be in the house for long." Liuli sounded strange: "You're not in the house, where are you going?" ”

Huanhua cried and said, "Third lady, she plans to marry me off!" Liuli was startled, and hurriedly handed her a handkerchief: "Don't worry, speak slowly." ”

Huan Hua sobbed for a moment and stopped: "Do you remember what the second lady of Xihe Mansion, Yang, said in front of the old lady on Chinese New Year's Eve?" That is to say, the youngest son of Lord Song Bi, who participated in the political affairs, asked for marriage. The eldest aunt and the second aunt are all about the idea of sending their daughter to the palace, and they will not be willing, I was painting in my mother's room last night, and when I was tired, I lay on the desk to rest. My mother estimated that I was asleep, so I told my father outside that I wanted to join the Song Mansion in this family business, saying that it would help my father's career. I'm the only girl in the third room, who else but me?! ”

Huanhua couldn't help it and started crying again.

Ruri handed her a handkerchief and fell silent.

The youngest son of Song Bi's family is fifteen years old, and he is talented and good-looking, and Song Bi is in the middle of the rise, even if he has the heart to send Yuhua Shuhua into the palace, the old lady will not be willing to let go of this piece of fat in vain. Since other girls are hopeless, it is better to pick a son-in-law as soon as possible, of course the Song family will not hire a concubine, so instead of cheapening the Nie family's mother and daughter, it is better to push Huanhua out, firstly, to find help for He Pusong, and secondly, to smooth the old lady's heart......

Liuli understood Qi's thoughts, and felt sorry for Huanhualai. Although the ten-year-old age has been said to be close, but the round house has to be at least fifteen years old, the Song family kid will be twenty years old by then, and the twenty-year-old man will have a few concubines regardless of whether the round house is round or not.

Liuli pulled the handkerchief and looked at Huanhua: "Don't worry, the third lady is just talking about it." After all, you are her only child, although you are not biological, you always have nurturing feelings. ”

Huanhua smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You don't know...... You don't even know! If she nurtures me, how can she poison me—"

After blurting it out, she herself was startled, and hurriedly covered her mouth with a silk, as if she wanted to stuff back Fang Cai's words.

Liuli was so shocked that the whole person was shocked: "She, poisoning you?" ”

Huanhua's tears were like flowing water, burying her face in the crook of her arm and just crying.

Liuli thought hard for a moment, and in her memory, she was not poisoned many times, only the one in the rune water. That time, when Huanhua was seriously ill, Qi beat the murderer who was found out half to death, slapped Yu's face hard, and successfully took the big kitchen back into his hands, how beautiful it was! At that time, how many people secretly watched Yu's jokes, and how many people saw Qi's majesty! But could it be that all this is actually a trap set by the Qi family, taking advantage of Huanhua's scolding by the old lady to poison her in order to achieve the purpose of hitting the Yu family? !

If so, then the Qi clan is terrible. This woman looked silent, it turned out to be a man-eating poisonous snake! No wonder after clearing the Yu family's people out of the big kitchen, Huanhua's illness was immediately cured, now that I think about it, those two mothers-in-law have great courage, and it is impossible to keep the evidence of the crime by their side!

It took her a while to calm down, and she couldn't help but touch her arm when she looked at Huanhua, who was still crying.

Huanhua gradually stopped crying, wiped her tears and snot, and looked at her with resentment.

Liuli said: "Don't be afraid, I won't say it." Even if I am killed, I will not say. ”

Huanhua stared at her, and only nodded slowly after a long time.

Liuli brought her tea, waited for her to drink, and said cautiously: "Don't you want to marry the young master of the Song family?" ”

She shook her head and said in a low voice, "I just don't want to live so soon to compete with the concubines for favor, if I have to go this way." I just want to have one person who will only be good to me for the rest of my life......" At the end of the sentence she blushed, looked at Ruri, and lowered her head.

Liuli sighed in her heart, if she has this wish, then this young master of the Song family is twelve inappropriate, which man will not be close to women until he is twenty years old? Or is it for someone you don't even know?

Huanhua was shy and a little apprehensive: "Liuli, can you help me?" ”

Ruri nodded: "I'll try." ”

Huanhua smiled as relieved, shook her hands back, and said, "Actually, I also know that with your current situation, it is really difficult to do anything for me, but I don't know why, hearing you say this, my heart is much better." Although there are many brothers and sisters in the house, none of them make me feel that I can confide in my heart, and sometimes I feel that closeness is superficial. ”

This is really a sensitive child, but in her position, her biological mother can't protect her, and her grandmother ignores her life and uses her as a tool for struggle, how can she not become sensitive? Liuli looked at her and asked softly, "I've always wanted to ask you, so many people regard me as a snake and scorpion and don't want to get close to me, why do you trust me so much?" ”

Huanhua didn't think about it, and said, "I know you're going to ask me." The first time I saw you, I didn't think you were like a nine-year-old child, and then every time I saw you, I felt more intense, I was curious about you at first, and then I felt very close,—— remember that day in the small courtyard over there? At that time, you were not afraid at all* and that old pious woman, I really admire you! Since then, I have felt that you are a very brave person, but you will not hurt others! ”

Ruri secretly twitched. - Won't hurt others? Mama Li probably wouldn't think so.

Huanhua sat for a while and looked at some female red embroidered glass, and Liuli was afraid that she would attract attention if she stayed for a long time, so she sent her out.

Halfway through, Huanhua said: "It's so easy for me to come back, you are busy urging me to go, if I am really married off, it will be difficult for us to even meet." As soon as he said this, a pair of watery eyes turned red again.

Liuli joked: "What are you afraid of, when I get married, I will go to your house to visit you." Seeing that Huanhua's face sank, he hurriedly said, "If you don't come today, I'm going to look for you too." There's something I want to ask you. He pulled her to the back of the bamboo forest and talked about the details of Qi's reward for the golden butterfly to Cui Ying.

Huanhua thought for a while and said: "That day I was in my mother's room to talk to Biluo, Cui Ying suddenly came, and my mother summoned her into the bedroom. After I saw Cui Ying reply, my mother said, 'You have to probe the depth of that girl first' or something, and then Cui Ying bargained with her, and then her mother was annoyed, so she said, 'Don't know what to do, I will indulge you today, and he will destroy you one day!'" When Cui Ying heard this, she stood up with a sigh of relief, her expression slowed down, and she said with a smile: "The slave maid sees that this golden silk butterfly on the head of the lady is very good, why don't you reward the slave maid?" I won't ask for that.'" The mother was angry, so she pulled out the branch and threw it to her, and scolded her for not knowing what to do......"

At this point, her voice lowered. Liuli hurriedly said: "Didn't you hear clearly what the third lady told her, and what she bargained with the third lady?" ”

Huanhua was stunned, and after a long time, he lowered his eyes and said, "Don't ask, I can only say so much." I know what you're thinking, you're wondering if Cui Ying was killed by her, right? Repeat the same trick as if you were poisoning me. But I'm going to tell you, no, even Tian'er wasn't killed by her. Otherwise, she would not have secretly ordered Qian Changsheng's family to interrogate Cuiying's father. ”rs
