Juanxiu lay down until near noon, felt thirsty, and called a few sisters who lived in the same house a few times, but no one answered her for a long time, she thought that she was pitiful, and secretly cried for a while, Fang slowly got up from the bed, poured a glass of water and drank it all, walked out of the house, and saw that there was no one around, so she got dressed and walked out.

The two maids who lived with Juanxiu actually watched her outside the house all the time, and when they saw her go out, they followed. I saw her holding her hands on her chest, looking around a little timidly, walking to a secluded corner of the courtyard, dexterously climbing a big peach blossom tree, following the branches over the courtyard wall and out of the yard, along a path that is not very walked on weekdays, and hurriedly walked to the gate of Aunt Zeng's courtyard.

Because Aunt Zeng was still grounded, and her courtyard was closed, Juan Xiu stood in front of the door and watched, a little disappointed, and wanted to raise her hand to buckle the door several times, but she didn't buckle it, hiding under the eaves, hesitating.

After a while, the door creaked open, Xing Shi took an umbrella and walked out, and when he saw Juanxiu, the two of them chatted under the eaves, the rain was too loud, and the two maids didn't dare to follow too closely, and they didn't hear a word when they said anything.

The two talked for a few words, and then saw Juanxiu take something out of her arms and hand it to Xing. When one of the two maids saw it, she became bold and walked to the corner of the door, which was only half a wall away from the two of them, she squatted down and poked her head out, only to hear the flower girl say, "...... But no, I didn't say the wrong thing, there was really a strange man who was poisoned and passed out in front of his wife's car, and was taken to the guest room by his wife, why did he kick me? ”

"Man?" Xing Shi was surprised and asked, "The palace is heavily guarded, how can there be a strange man?" No wonder you are angry, why are you talking so nonsense? ”

"Mama," Juanxiu sobbed, "there really is, the man has a goat's beard, and a little sister has a straight eye, and secretly told me that this man is born to be good-looking." Oh, Mama, I won't tell you this, I'm going back, and the two sisters in the free house didn't see me, and they went to Qingyu to arrange my no. ”

With that, he left in a hurry.

When the two maids saw that she was walking back to her own courtyard, they didn't follow, and went to talk back to Qingyu and put it aside. Besides, when the Xing clan saw Hua Gu leaving, he stood under the eaves and was stunned for a while, and he didn't go out, but hurriedly entered the house and closed the door. Trotted straight into Zeng's inner room.

At this time, the Zeng family was lying on the couch like a female ghost. Xing ran in in a little panic, closed the door, and pushed her to call: "Auntie, it's not good, I'm afraid something happened to my uncle." ”

Then he told Zeng what he had just heard from Juanxiu about last night. When Zeng heard this, he kicked at her. He snorted and said, "A trivial matter, what is the panic?" He and the lord are one in the court, he has an accident in the house, the slut will definitely report to the lord, the lord knows, he will go to save him, there is a lot of worry. ”

"The slave and maid don't bear his heart," said Xing, "the slave and the slave are worried that he will tell the master about his aunt calling him to help you ask for spices." ”

"Phew!" Zeng said, "Will he?" Do you think he will sincerely ask for medicine for me? It's just that I'm taking advantage of the convenience I gave him to meet that little slut. Hmph, poisoning? Nine times out of ten, they want to take advantage of others, but they can't do it, but they suffer a dark loss. He didn't dare to tell the truth to his master. Don't worry about him, by the way, about the bed, Ye Junyi's slut is really a rumor or is it like when she didn't enter the mansion? ”

"Yes, yes," said Xing, "Madame, she really said that. According to the past, there are still more than ten days before my aunt's day. I heard that since Mrs. entered the house, the master has returned to the house almost every night. If my aunt wants to see my grandfather, she has to recuperate in the next few days. ”

"Recuperate?" Zeng suddenly got up from the couch and glared at her with some hideousness, "There is no spice, look at me like this, I am so uncomfortable all day long, my whole body seems to be bitten by countless insects, how can I recuperate?" You stupid minion, you can't do much! I asked you to go get incense, but you refused to go, and that Zeng Gang was still a Praetorian Guard, phew! Ask me to do this and that for him in this Yasukuni Mansion, and I will ask him to get a little spice for the old lady, this little thing can't be done, and one or two of you are some waste, waste! . ”

"Auntie, Madame said, you can't use that spice anymore." Xing's hand touched Zeng's face, and said with tears in his eyes.

"Smack!"

A crisp slap was slapped in the face.

"Dog minion, Madame?" Zeng roared hoarsely, "Could it be that you went to tell that slut about this?" Even you no longer take me seriously, betray me, betray me? See if I don't kill you! ”

As he spoke, he reached out to tear off his shirt and cut it into a belly pocket, picked up a long needle that usually sewed quilts from the table next to the couch, and stabbed it indiscriminately into Xing's upper body. In less than a moment's time, Xing's body was already covered in blood. Zeng was still unsatisfied, and copied a ring ruler on the table, and hit her on the upper body and face.

A mother-in-law sent by Qingyu outside trembled all over her body under the window. The Xing didn't scream or hide, until Zeng was tired from the fight, and then he climbed on the couch out of breath, and when the Xing saw that she was done, he trembled and put on his clothes.

"Mama!"

Xing wiped away the tears on her face and was about to turn away, but suddenly heard Zeng call her, she quickly turned around, only to see Zeng's face full of tears, looking at her with pleading eyes.

"Mama!" Zeng's whispered to Xing's cry, "Mama save me!" If Mama doesn't help Zhen'er in this world, then who else can Zhen'er count on! ”

"Really!" Xing Shi rushed up and hugged Zeng's, "My poor Zhen'er, it's not that Mama doesn't help you, Madam said, if you use that incense again, it will be difficult to quit this addiction in this life, my true son, you can bear with it." ”

"Patience! Endure! Zeng pushed her away and said angrily, "You have been a forbearance all your life, but what is the result?" Are you in a good place? No, I can't live my life like you, I can't. She stepped forward and hugged Xing's shoulders, and changed her tone of pleading, "Mama, you just follow the truth, think about it, I have used the spice for so long, how can I quit it all at once?" Look at me like this, can I go to wait for the Hou Ye in ten days? Mama, you can help me once, go and bring me the spices. Mama, just help me, I'm really uncomfortable, so uncomfortable! ”

When Xing heard this, he lowered his head helplessly, Zeng saw her appearance, knew that she had agreed, and felt a burst of joy in his heart, and quickly jumped out of bed, whispering in Xing's ear, and the mother-in-law sent by Qingyu pricked up her ears and didn't hear half a word.

"This ......," Xing Shi seemed taken aback when he heard this, "how did she have such a medicine?" ”

"If you are told to go, you will go," Zeng changed his face again, and said in a vicious voice, "What is this nonsense? Just do as I tell you. ”

While speaking, I looked up and saw that Xing Shi was yelled at and stayed there, and in a blink of an eye, he changed his pitiful appearance, took Xing Shi's hand and said: "It's not all because you are lowly that I was sent here as a gift by my father and brother as a concubine." Think about it, if I were really a girl born of a serious mother, they would do this to me? Mama, I'm really afraid that one day I'll end up like you. You've come to this point, and I still have to rely on. If I fall into your way, who will you and I go to? For this reason, I must firmly grasp the heart of the master, if he can give birth to a son one day, then this Yasukuni Marquis Mansion is still you and me? Who else can kick us out? ”

When Xing heard this, he hung his head helplessly, and muttered: "You are an aunt, it is good to have a man and a woman to rely on, don't do other thoughts." ”

After speaking, she saw that Zeng's had no other instructions, so she turned around and walked out slowly, she didn't dare to tell Zeng's that Hua Gu said just now that it was raining so heavily, and Mrs. was also busy cleaning up the yard, and several women waiting for Xu Hou came in soon. As a result, she was also very worried that when the newcomer came in, the Zeng family would lose Xu Hou's favor. If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have agreed to Zeng's request anyway.

Zeng's lying on the couch watched Xing's staggering departure with contempt, thinking fiercely in his heart: What do you know, lowly mother-in-law? Except for me, no one in this house wants to give birth to a son, and I am going to decide the position of the son of this world. And that little lady, huh......

Naturally, everything here in the Zeng family was quickly passed back to Qingyu's ears by the mother-in-law, this time Ziye Junyi was taking a lunch break, and the two girls who Chunlan and Qingyu had just transferred in called Luping and Zicao were waiting outside for nothing, so they were playing with the dice, and when they saw Qingyu coming in, they knew that she would be promoted to management, and they were bluffed, and hurriedly hid the dice.

Qingyu saw it, but she just pretended not to see it, slammed the door lightly, woke Ye Junyi up, heard the sound of her getting up, and called a few people to wait outside, no one was allowed to come in, so she opened the door and walked in.

"Juanxiu?" Ye Junyi listened to Qingyu's words, but still a little unconvinced, "She has always been timid, how dare she do these things?" Ay! Anyway, she is recuperating at this time, and she can't come into the house, and you let people keep an eye on her for a while, to see if she has done anything, and send someone to check her details again, because she is honest, and she is the girl I married, but I have not asked why she was sold into slavery. ”

"Yes, madam," Qingyu waited for Ye Junyi to get dressed, and then said, "I asked people to keep an eye on the Xing clan closely, and see when she goes out and follows her, then you can know that the person in this mansion is the big ghost." ”
