Chapter Seventy-Three: The Comer Is Not Good
"Madam, we just found out that something was wrong when we untied the beauty."
Madame Jade leaned forward, hooked the chin of "Qizhao" with her fingertips, and then asked the maid to move the candle closer. She took a closer look, where was the beauty, it was clearly just a woman wearing the beauty clothes.
Madame Yu frowned and pondered for a moment, when suddenly her eyes narrowed and she muttered, "It's not good, it's a trick!" ”
As he spoke, he took a few little maids and ran quickly to the firewood room in the east chamber.
When she arrived at the east chamber, Mrs. Yu found that the door of the firewood room was open, and the lock no longer knew what had been poured into it, and it was scattered on the ground, and Zhao Ji had long since lost sight.
She shouted, "Someone! Come! ”
When the little night guard on guard heard Madame Yu's summons, he was first clever, and then hurriedly came to the courtyard of the firewood room in the east wing.
"Lady Jade."
"I ask you, has anyone but me been here tonight?"
The vigil's heart was beating, thinking that this Jade Lady didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and always came to the inconspicuous east chamber of Situ Mansion to do something, and the little maid who happened to be beautiful also came strangely. As the night guard was thinking this, Madame Jade frowned and asked aloud, "I'm asking you!" ”
The night watchman heard that Mrs. Yu lost her temper, so she fell to her knees in fright, and her voice trembled: "Return...... Back to Mrs. No, no, the villain has always been here, except for Madame, no ...... No one else came. ”
Madame Yu looked at the frightened night watchman in front of her with a sly expression, pointed to the scattered firewood room and asked, "Then let me ask you, is this firewood room haunted?" Okay, why is the lock open and the people gone? ”
The night guard muttered quietly, "People? I don't know who it is. ”
The little maid beside Madame Jade looked carefully at the night guard guard, there seemed to be something heavy in her sleeve, she made a color at Madame Jade, and Madame Jade also saw the strangeness in the guard's sleeve.
As soon as Madam Yu saw that the guard was hiding something, she deliberately scolded loudly: "I don't know? And where did the stuff in your sleeve come from? ”
The guard was also timid, and when he heard that Mrs. Yu was afraid that she would know about the matter, she came over to ask about it. You must know that even though there are groups of concubines in Situ's mansion, but, in the final analysis, the most important thing is this Jade Lady. He thought that if he still carried the maid to conceal it, he was afraid that there would be no possibility of being able to live in Situ's mansion, and he was afraid that it would not be cost-effective to cut off his errand for the sake of these few red beads.
So, he hurriedly took out a few red beads from his sleeve and presented them to Mrs. Yu. As soon as Mrs. Yu took the red beads, the guard kept buttoning her head, and kept saying, "Madame spares her life, Madame spares her life, Madame spares her life." ”
Madame Yu looked at a few red beads, and knew a thing or two in her heart, and she continued to ask: "What's the matter, give me a 1510 explanation!" ”
"Yes...... It was a beautiful woman, and her maid said that the beautiful woman felt cold at night and wanted to fill some firewood, so she asked a maid to fetch it. Afraid that the housekeeper of the village would blame him for wasting firewood, he stuffed a few red beans into the small one and asked the small one to hide the matter. Please also ask Mrs. to bypass the villain, the villain is also greedy for a while, and please ask Mrs. to atone for her sins, atonement for her sins! ”
When Mrs. Yu heard this, she knew that she was afraid that she had fallen for the trick. She hurriedly took the maids beside her and walked towards Qizhao's neon courtyard.
"Miss, no one found out, did they?"
Qizhao and Cuijuan discussed while carrying the scarred Zhao Ji from the firewood train to the house.
"No, though, there are some things I didn't expect."
Cuijuan was speechless, Qizhao saw that Cuijuan's expression was different, and was about to ask, at this time, a little maid outside the courtyard came in and said, "Beauty, Mrs. Yu has arrived." ”
Qizhao frowned and whispered, "How did you come so quickly?" As he spoke, he opened the secret compartment under the bed that Cuijuan had prepared in advance, and then said to Zhao Ji: "The wronged seniors hide here first, this Jade Lady is not good, the seniors must hide it, don't make a sound." ”
Zhao Ji nodded.
Cuijuan hurriedly placed Zhao Ji in the dark compartment under the bed, while Qi Zhao quickly tore off the human skin mask, and then got into the quilt with a bone.
As soon as she lay down, Madame Jade broke down the door.
I saw Madame Yu frowning lightly and looking around at Qizhao's bedroom. Qi Zhao pretended to be woken up, rubbed his eyes and got up, and said to Mrs. Yu who broke into the door: "I don't know if my sister came to visit late at night, what are you doing?" ”
Madame Yu saw that there was no trace of anyone else in Qizhao's bedroom except Cuijuan. She glanced at Cuijuan who was standing next to her, and then immediately stepped forward with a smile, sat on Qizhao's bed, held Qizhao's hand and said: "Sister, I was sleeping well, but who knew that I fell into a nightmare, and I dreamed that my sister was captured by thieves in the middle of the night, which frightened me." No, I'll take a look at you, although it disturbed my sister's good dreams, but my sister and I can put my mind at ease now. Sister, don't blame your sister. ”
Qi Zhao smiled, pulled his hand out of Mrs. Yu's hand, and said to Mrs. Yu: "Sister, thank you sister for worrying, seeing that the sky is not yet bright." Sister should continue to go back to sleep, otherwise tomorrow's complexion will be much darker. ”
Madame Yu smiled awkwardly, and when her hand fell, she touched something like skin, and she pulled it hard, and Qing'er's human skin mask was torn out of the quilt.
Qi Zhao couldn't help but feel a smile when she saw it, and she forced a smile.
Madame Jade looked the human skin mask up and down and asked, "Sister, what is this?" ”
"This is the dough, it was given to me by a Taoist priest, saying that it can eliminate disasters and solve problems, and if you press under the bed, you can look like a sister." Qi Zhao is serious nonsense, and he also hopes to use this ageless words to send away this unkind Jade Lady.
When Mrs. Yu heard this, she smiled awkwardly, then got up and smiled at Qi Zhao and said, "Since I saw that my sister was fine, then my sister was relieved, come back." ”
"Madame Jade walks slowly." Qi Zhao bowed his head slightly and said to Madam Yu.
Madame Yu turned around and smiled at Qi Zhao, then glanced at Cuijuan, who was waiting on the side with her head bowed, and left with the maid.
"Madam, why don't you just ask that beauty?" A little maid close to Madame Jade asked.
"Hmph, just ask, she can tell the truth?"
"Didn't Zhao Ji take it away from that beauty?" The little maid muttered quietly.
While eating a snack, Madame Yu said to the maid next to her, "It's not her or who, this slut." Sooner or later, Mrs. Ben will ask her for these things. ”
"But this Zhao Ji is a big living person, where can she hide?"
"I don't know where to hide, but Zhao Ji's slut is right in her hands! You don't know, when I sat on her bed, I didn't feel any warmth on it, and she must have just laid down on it. And that dough, it must have been given to her by the ghost girl, and the maid she saw as the guard said before might be herself. Madame Jade narrowed her eyes and smashed the dragon whisker crisp in her palm.
