This time it was Liuli's turn to be speechless. She asked Rui'er to go back to see her, naturally she wanted to see Rui'er's choice, and of course, at the same time, she was also looking at Aunt Su's choice. If Aunt Su left Rui'er behind at that time, it means that Aunt Su doesn't need glass, and then she will never hope to get a favorable opportunity from Aunt Su.

But later, Rui'er came back, which shows that Liuli has a place to use compared to Aunt Su, which is also absolutely good news for Liuli.

As long as one has a place to be used, one will never be trapped in a desperate situation. At the beginning, she pushed her to the position of the ninth girl of He Fu, also because of this plan, right? After all, a nine girls in the mansion are much more convenient to use.

So, even though the road was snowy tonight, she still came.

But the concubine who she didn't want to touch alone came forward to push the position of steward of the kitchen, no matter how ridiculous it sounded, but Liuli heard it now, Aunt Su did it on purpose, she was testing her, and she was also seeking justice for herself because of Rui'er's incident, Cheng Yingniang wanted to stand in that position, took 10,000 steps back and said, even if Liuli can do it, she will inevitably offend the Yu family, and her road ahead will be even more difficult, Aunt Su is forcing her to oppose the Yu family.

But the great thing about this woman is that she has already decided that Liuli will voluntarily become a knife for her, and the helplessness of life often lies in the fact that sometimes you know that there is a trap under your feet, and you have to jump down, which seems to be understood by both of them.

Liuli was silent for a long time, sighed, and said, "Since my aunt has spoken, Liuli should take it head-on." ”

Aunt Su smiled slowly, "You are a smart child." ”

Liuliqiang smiled, depressed.

Aunt Su smiled at her, but didn't care.

The hall was empty and deserted, and Liuli waited for a long time and didn't see her follow-up, so she stood up: "If my aunt has nothing to order, Liuli will retire." ”

Aunt Su sat still and nodded. Liuli hesitated and stopped: "It's cold, auntie, please go back to the room early." ”

Aunt Su smiled, shook her head, and slowly opened the scriptures.

Liuli paused for a moment and hesitated: "I just saw Mama Wei burning the paper outside the house, could it be that today is an important day?" ”

"Today?" Aunt Su stopped her hand and looked ahead with a sad face, "Today is indeed an important day that I will never forget...... Go back! Get that done as soon as possible, and don't ask about anything else. ”

Liuli hurriedly said yes and walked out of the inner hall.

Hearing the knock on the door, Rose and Rui'er, who were warming up next door, came out, and Rui'er hurriedly took a big coat to put it on her, and said, "But it's over?" ”

Ruri nodded. Yu Wei glanced at the inner hall and asked, "Where is my aunt?" ”

Liuli said: "Auntie is still worshipping the Buddha, go in and take a look." ”

Lu Wei sighed, shook her head and said, "Rui'er is so good to go back with the girl." As he spoke, he handed out the umbrella under the door to Rui'er and them.

Liuli guessed that it was inconvenient to say more, so she walked out of the courtyard along the corridor.

No wonder Aunt Su asked her to come here tonight, it turned out that no matter whether Liuli went to the appointment or not, she would be here, Liuli was a little glad that she finally touched the bottom of Aunt Su, but when she thought of that impossible task, she couldn't be happy.

All the way back to the small cross courtyard with a cloak and snow, the courtyard was quieter than before, and Mama Li's snoring had stopped. Rui'er was afraid that Liuli would accumulate cold, so she lightly boiled water on the stove and made ginger soup, and let Liuli drink a big bowl and drink a bowl herself.

Liuli's heart was like pressing a stone, and she didn't say much, Rui'er just thought she was tired, and when she got into bed, she tucked the quilt for her, and then turned off the lights and went out.

The whole east of the small cross courtyard is full of glazed territory, she lives in the middle of the three main rooms, Rui'er and other three maids live in the two ear rooms on the right front and back, and the left ear room is also front and back, originally empty, after Mama Li came, she cleaned up the front and let her live, she was too small, so she later gave her the inner room.

Rui'er went out of the door, a cold risk pushed her head-on, hurried to the threshold, stretched out her hand to push the door open, and a unique smell of charcoal came to her face with the warmth.

There was no light in the room, so Cui Ying must have fallen asleep. There was a charcoal fire burning next to her bed, the fire had not yet been extinguished, and there were still sparks flashing under the ashes. Rui'er found a flint and lit the lamp by this firelight, and the lamp seemed to be afraid of the cold, and the bean-sized mass shrank in the lamp holder, and it looked like it was about to be extinguished.

The doors and windows in the house were also closed very tightly, and Rui'er remembered Liuli's words, so she quickly opened the side windows a little. turned around, and sure enough, she saw Cui Ying facing the inner wall, already asleep, Tian'er thought that she had gone to the thatched house, and there was no one on the bed.

Rui'er was so sleepy that she fell asleep as soon as she put her head on the pillow.

The next day, the sweetness should be up early, and the glass is about to get up, and the person on duty should prepare hot water and clean clothes in advance.

Rui'er woke up at three o'clock, and when she saw that Tian'er was sleeping soundly, she knew that she was greedy for warmth and missed the hour, and she was afraid that there would be no one to wait for Liuli, so after thinking about it, she got up by herself.

When he carried the water to the porch, he saw that the charcoal basket was empty, so he went into the house again and asked Cui Ying to take the key to the treasury to get the charcoal.

Cui Ying lay quietly on the bed, still maintaining the sleeping position of last night.

Rui'er patted her gently: "Sister Cuiying! ”

Cui Ying didn't move. Rui'er leaned over to her and patted her again: "Sister! Cui Ying still didn't move. Rui'er plucked up her courage and held her shoulder with one hand: "Sister......" Before the call of "sister" was finished, she couldn't open her mouth anymore, and Cui Ying, who was only wearing obscene clothes and pants under her hand, was cold to the touch, and as stiff as a stone!

Rui'er was shocked and hurriedly flipped her over......

Liuli fell asleep near dawn, and suddenly woke up from her sleep with a scream, opened her eyes in a daze, and another scream came from next door: "Someone! Dead man! ”

Liuli heard Tian'er's voice, and immediately sat up, there were no clothes at the head of the bed, so she took the big hat that she couldn't put away last night and put it on randomly. Calling "Rui'er", Rui'er didn't respond, but someone in the next room cried again, and Mama Li on the right also got up, shouting all the way "What's wrong", and the wind rushed to the house where the three maids were.

When Liuli arrived, Rui'er sat on the ground with her eyes wide open and cried, while Tian'er paced up and down and kept chanting: "Dead! Dead! She's dead! ”

Mama Li patted her thigh in despair and said, "What the hell is this?" How could it be dead...... How could you just die like that?! ……”

And on the wooden bed in front of them, Cui Ying was lying in a strange posture!

Liuli stepped forward to sniff and pinched her cheeks again, shivering inexplicably.

- It's really dead!
