Luping and Meixiang are fellow villagers, and when Shen Qingyin didn't commit any crimes, she was very popular with the old lady, and she had a good relationship with the Su sisters. So there is also an intersection between their respective maids, and Luping knows that Mei Xiang is a fellow villager with her, so she is even more affectionate.

Later, when the matter over Shen Qingyin's side came out, Luping naturally stopped interacting with Mei Xiang, and the people in Xiyuan were forbidden to go out. Unexpectedly, at this time, Mei Xiang secretly knocked on her window.

Immediately asked in horror: "What are you going to do so late?" ”

Mei Xiang didn't say anything, just handed over a handkerchief wrapped in a hard thing: "Sister, just look at it and know." ”

As she spoke, Mei Xiang stuffed the things into Lu Ping's hand, and then tiptoed along the root of the wall and walked into the grove.

Lu Ping saw that Mei Xiang had left, so she hurriedly closed the window.

Because there are not many maids in the lotus, Lu Ping and Lu Qiao are two people in the same room. Now Lu Qiao followed Su Zijin to Liuxiangju, there is only Lu Ping alone in the house, there is no housekeeper mother in this courtyard, it is the largest of the two big girls, and no one will open the door of the big girl's room without long eyes.

Lu Ping made sure that Lu Qiao would not turn back, so she opened the thing that Mei Xiang had given her.

Lu Ping was dumbfounded when she opened it, and a coarse cloth wrapped two ingots of silver, which was as much as twenty taels. Even now, Luping's monthly money is only one or two a month, and she doesn't have so much to save for a year, so she immediately felt a beat in her heart, and hurriedly stuffed the silver into the quilt, for fear of being seen.

After confirming it a few times, it was really twenty taels of silver, and Lu Ping's heart became nervous.

She is not a fool, Miss Big Table gave so much silver, and she will definitely not say that it is nothing. Then he picked up the coarse cloth wrapped in silver, and saw a note inside, which read: If you have something to ask for, thank you with a lot of money.

Lu Ping has been following Su Zijin for a long time, and she is naturally literate, and there is anything she doesn't understand when she looks at the note written by Shen Qingyin.

At the moment, her heart moved, Shen Qingyin let herself go to Xiyuan, and now Mei Xiang gave her the silver, even if she didn't go to Shen Qingyin, she couldn't help her. Thinking so, Luping couldn't help but throw the note in her hand to the side, and reached out to carry the silver in the quilt into her arms. Although she has been following Su Zijin for so long, she has only raised the big girl's money in the past two years, and it used to be only 500 yuan a month, and after saving for so many years, there are not 20 taels.

Now that he has got so much money, his heart suddenly blossomed.

But then I thought about it, Shen Qingyin's shot was twenty taels, if he went to Xiyuan, would he be able to get more silver. When the time comes, what does Shen Qingyin let him do, and then report it to the eldest lady, maybe he can still ask for credit.

Thinking so, Lu Ping calmed down, thinking in her heart that Zuo was just going over to take a look, and she didn't do anything to hurt the eldest lady. Driven by the silver in his heart, he subconsciously picked up the note.

I thought that if I got more money, I wouldn't have to worry that the eldest lady would have no good way out in the future. When the time comes, it's a big deal to bring the silver with me, and beg the eldest lady to let herself out, as long as she has the money to go back to the countryside and buy a few acres of land, she will no longer have to be a maid. Maybe she can let her sister-in-law of that force follow her every day.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt relieved, and she estimated that if Su Zijin went to Liuxiangju, she would have to have dinner over there and then talk to the old lady before she could come back. Counting that it was still early, he quietly changed into darker clothes and opened the door to go out.

followed the path that Mei Xiang had just walked, and ran all the way to Xiyuan.

Because it was almost dinner time, there were not many people walking around in the courtyard of the Su family, and most of them were busy in the courtyards of various masters.

As soon as Luping arrived at the gate of Xiyuan, she saw Mei Xiang waiting there. Seeing that Lu Ping hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "Sister Lu Ping, please come with me." ”

As he spoke, he led Lu Ping all the way to Shen Qingyin's house.

Shen Qingyin had already returned from Liuxiangju, and was sitting in the room talking with Mama Wu, when she heard Mei Xiang whisper, "Sister Luping is here." ”

stopped the topic immediately, and saw Luping follow Mei Xiang into the house.

As soon as she entered the door, Lu Ping still respectfully saluted Shen Qingyin: "The slave maid has seen Miss Dabiao." ”

Shen Qingyin sneered in his heart when he heard this, I'm afraid this is not a salute for me, but a salute for the silver given to me. Although he sneered in his heart, he said with a smile on his face: "No need to be polite." ”

Then let Mei Xiang close the door.

Lu Ping saw that there was no one else in the house except Shen Qingyin and the martial family's grandmother, so she immediately didn't beat around the bush: "The slave maid came over when she saw the note that Miss Dabiao asked Mei Xiang to hand over to the slave maid." ”

Hearing this, he saw Shen Qingyin pursing his lips and smiling: "I have something I want to ask you for help, and I will give you a hundred taels after the matter is completed... Gold as a reward, I don't know if you want to or not. ”

Lu Ping was stunned when she heard this, one hundred taels of silver was enough for her to be shocked, but Shen Qingyin opened her mouth with one hundred taels of gold, which made her stunned at the moment and didn't know what to say.

reacted for a while, but couldn't help the joy in his voice: "I don't know what Miss Dabiao wants the slave to do." ”

Hearing this, Shen Qingyin took out a small paper bag from his sleeve pocket: "This is a packet of powder from the seeds of the mandala, you just put it in the soup and let Su Zijin give it to the old lady to drink." ”

Lu Ping was shocked when she heard this: "You want me to poison the old lady, and then blame the eldest lady!" ”

Shen Qingyin was silent, just smiled and looked at Lu Ping, although the mandala seed was poisonous, it was not enough to poison the old lady. It's just for the sake of the future.

No matter how bold Luping was, she didn't dare to take the drug, and immediately refused: "This is absolutely impossible, the slave and maid can't do it, and I have never been a slave and maid today." ”

Saying that, Luping was about to go out.

But since she entered this house, how could Shen Qingyin and Mama Wu allow her to leave for so long.

Mama Wu immediately stepped forward, grabbed Lu Ping's hands, and put a dagger against Lu Ping's throat.

Lu Ping had never seen such a scene, and her legs suddenly weakened with fright: "What are you doing here?" ”

"What? What do you think? Shen Qingyin looked at Lu Ping with a frightened face, but she enjoyed her current appearance very much, this is what the Su family should be: "I just asked you to do something, but I didn't expect you to toast and not eat and drink, so it's no wonder to me." ”

Saying that, Shen Qingyin took out a pill and sent it directly to Lu Ping's mouth, Wu Mama immediately pinched Lu Ping's chin and lifted it up, forcing Lu Ping to swallow the medicine, and then threw Lu Ping on the ground.

"Haven't you been thinking about how to instigate your eldest lady to cling to the Lu family? Aren't you just waiting for Su Zijin to marry into the Lu family, so that you have the opportunity to climb into the bed of the eldest young master of the Lu family, when Su Zijin thinks of your love for so many years, she must not be able to bear not to blame you, her relationship with the Su family has been separated by you, naturally it is impossible to tell the Su family to stand up for her, according to her character, you can only endure it, and then you can still get the status of a concubine. For the sake of this wishful thinking, you don't have to speculate in front of your young lady. Why don't you dare to give you a better errand than this now? As long as this thing is completed, it is not a pleasure to go with a hundred taels of gold at that time, it is better than being a concubine and being looked down upon, why don't you have the courage now? ”
