Chapter 42: Beware of Temptation
"Oh, then, let's go to Sister Yinqiu's yard to visit her." Lu Tuzhi smiled at Shen Jinqiu as she spoke, and there was no reason to refuse.
Shen Jinqiu didn't like it in her heart, but she was a concubine who was also called a sister? Lu Tuzhi treats her as the same as Shen Yinqiu, she is a concubine! A noble concubine.
Lu Tuzhi took two steps and found that Shen Jinqiu did not follow, and when she looked back, Shen Jinqiu immediately put away the dissatisfaction in her heart, and stepped forward with a smile, Lu Tuzhi is still somewhat useful now, and she can't offend her first.
The matter of the general's wife coming to the door only reached Shen Yinqiu's ears after a cup of tea, which was not good news.
Qianguang and Qianyun's bodies are no longer in serious trouble, and they got out of bed today to wait for their master, and after hearing that the maid who rushed to the master was killed by a live cane, Qianyun still said hatefully: "Miss, this general's mansion is not a good one, just launch a maid and finish it!" "Her master was almost killed, and I feel scared when I think about it!
Shen Yinqiu's expression was as usual, as if he had known that this would be the result. At that time, she couldn't see anything, and naturally she couldn't come up with any evidence.
Let's just let them jump first, she is not dead, and the other party wants to kill her, so she will shoot again soon, she just needs to wait and wait.
Not long after, someone outside the door reported that the eldest lady and Miss Lu from the General's Mansion were here.
Shen Yinqiu raised his eyebrows and asked Qianguang to go out to welcome them in, while he lay on the bed and pretended to be weak.
Lu Tuzhi looked at this small courtyard before he stepped into the courtyard, and it was completely untouched, and the corners were partial, I don't know why, I felt that this courtyard seemed to be colder than other places.
Qianguang and Qianyun came out and saluted at them, "The slave has seen the eldest lady, Miss Lu. ”
Shen Jinqiu didn't wait to see Shen Yinqiu and the people around her, and when she saw Qianguang Qianyun, she snorted, and said to Lu Tuzhi: "Sister Tuzhi still wants to go in?" My sister is still in the sickbed, and it won't be good if I get sick with Sister Tuzhi. ”
Qianguang and Qianyun lowered their heads, dissatisfied, this made her young lady say as if she had a bad disease!
Lu Tuzhi was born in a family of military generals, although she is petite, her physical quality is excellent, where will she be afraid of any illness, and it is not tuberculosis. Secretly learned how to grapple, maybe a man is not her opponent.
She skipped Shen Jinqiu's question, and said directly to Qianguang Qianyun: "You lead the way, see if your young lady is better." ”
Qianguang Qianyun got up and took Lu Dizhi into the wing, Shen Jinqiu's eyes flashed with a touch of viciousness and unwillingness, and finally followed in without giving up.
Shen Yinqiu's room was filled with a smell of herbs, fortunately it was not strong, there was a blue and white porcelain on the windowsill and table, and there were a few budding Yueshang flowers inserted in it, red and blue, exuding a bamboo-like fragrance. Pleasant and eye-catching.
Shen Yinqiu was still lying on the bed, there was a medicine bowl next to the bed, and when he heard them coming, he hurriedly struggled, as if he wanted to get up and salute them.
Lu Tuzhi hurriedly quickened her pace and stepped forward and said, "Sister Yinqiu, don't move if you're not well." ”
Shen Yinqiu could already see the silhouette of the person at this time, but he still pretended not to see it, shrank back, tilted his head and shouted, "Sister Lu? ”
This well-behaved appearance is very pleasing to Lu Tuzhi, soft and glutinous, completely different from the indifference when she played the piano before, she hummed, sat on the edge of the bed and said: "Invite you to the general's mansion to enjoy the plum, but the plum appreciation will make you suffer, how does Sister Yinqiu's body feel?" ”
Shen Yinqiu looked at Lu Tuzhi, and it didn't seem like she was looking at Lu Tuzhi, she nodded a little happily and said: "Thank you Sister Lu for your care, Yinqiu's body is no longer in serious trouble, and she will be healed after a few days of recuperation." ”
"That's good." Lu Tuzhi said, but her eyes kept looking at Shen Yinqiu, could such a girl really fall into Brother Yan's eyes because of Qin Yi's goodness?
However, if she is only outstanding in piano skills, she can also learn it!
Shen Jinqiu stood aside, and when she caught a glimpse of Shen Yinqiu's face, she flashed impatience, but Lu Tuzhi was still sitting in front of Shen Yinqiu's bed with her back to her, and she had no choice but to care meaningfully: "Sister, the weather is getting colder and colder these days, the doctor said that you can't get cold anymore, you must pay attention to keeping warm, and say what is missing in the house." ”
Shen Yinqiu didn't suspect this sister-in-law, she wouldn't give up when she was knocked into the water! Seeing Shen Jinqiu stepping into her yard for the first time, and pretending to show concern, Shen Yinqiu smiled even sweetly: "Well, the housekeeper has sent a lot of things over these days, there is nothing missing, when I am well, I will personally thank my father." ”
The housekeeper can say that those things were ordered to be sent by her cheap father, and they may be able to block Shen Jinqiu's heart.
Shen Jinqiu laughed dryly and said, "Daddy feels sorry for you, you also have to fight hard to take care of your body." ”
Lu Tuzhi came back to her senses and asked tentatively: "Sister Yinqiu has only been back in Beijing for less than three months, right?" ”
"Huh?" Shen Yinqiu didn't know why Lu Tuzhi asked like this, but she still replied honestly: "Yes, it is indeed less than three months. ”
"Hmm, do you know anyone?"
Hey, this is to help her continue to find out who is behind her? Shen Yinqiu suppressed the surprise in his heart, since the General's Mansion had already launched a maid to finish, did he still have the heart to investigate?
But if Miss Lu has the heart to help her, it is not a bad thing, Shen Yinqiu shook his head: "Sister Lu, I have rarely gone out since I returned to Beijing, and I only met two young ladies at the plum blossom banquet, one is Tang Yu and the other is Liu Yan. ”
"Nothing else?" Lu Tuzhi faced the two women, Tang Yu and Liu Yan, and continued to ask.
Shen Yinqiu confirmed again: "It's gone,"
Shen Jinqiu was wary, and like Shen Yinqiu, he thought that this Miss Lu was still holding on to Shen Yinqiu's falling into the water.
Sure enough, after listening to Lu Tuzhi's words, she became even more uneasy.
Lu Tuzhi said: "I have a lot to say to Sister Yinqiu, thank you Sister Jinqiu for bringing me." ”
This is to make Shen Jinqiu avoid, Shen Jinqiu's face darkened instantly, but he quickly adjusted again. She can't be cheeky and stay here, which will damage her generous and decent image.
His eyes swept to the personal maid beside him, and he responded with a smile: "Okay, I'll wait for my sister in the garden before, let the maid Xiaoya next to me stay and wait for my sister?" ”
Lu Tuzhi looked at the short maid and said with a smile: "Don't bother, just wait for me to finish talking to Sister Yinqiu, and let the maid next to her lead the way." ”
"Yes, sister, don't worry, I will let Qianguang send Sister Lu back." Shen Yinqiu didn't know that Shen Jinqiu wanted to leave an eyeliner, but he didn't let her get her wish!
Shen Jinqiu saw that this plan was hopeless, smiled and left with the maid, when he heard the sound of the door being closed, Shen Jinqiu, who was standing outside the door, immediately brushed his face, and couldn't care about hiding it anymore.
Her dignified eldest lady of the Shen family was actually invited out by a concubine? Hehehe! This Shen Yinqiu really can't stay, he is so good at hooking up with people, obviously Lu Tuzhi didn't know that hoof at all before!
Shen Jinqiu felt that she had to discuss countermeasures with her mother, that incident was secretly arranged by her and Lian Xinyi, and even Mrs. Lian must have known that they were not good and could not let themselves suffer.
Shen Jinqiu whispered to the maids beside him as he walked: "Find someone to listen to what they say!" ”
Her henchman Xiaoya swept around the courtyard, but she didn't find a breakthrough point that could start, the people in this Liuluo courtyard were all the people of the second lady, and it was difficult to find someone to listen to the corner.
Immediately embarrassed to explain, Shen Jinqiu walked a few steps and saw Liu Da and Liu Er guarding the door, seemed to think of something and smiled, and only when he was far away from the courtyard did he sneer: "The maid next to the slut is really not easy to start, but you are blind?" The two men guarding the door, you still can't handle it? ”
Xiao Ya's face instantly turned red and white, and she carefully thought about the meaning of her master's words. It can't be as dirty as she thinks, right?
Shen Jinqiu said: "Although they all signed a deed of sale to that slut, no one doesn't love silver, silver can't do it, just use beauty, they are just a cheap slave, and they can't find the north if they give a little sweetness." Xiaoya, you can arrange this. ”
The maid Xiaoya hurriedly responded, and she was very glad that she was not outstanding!
In the courtyard of Liuluo, in Shen Yinqiu's wing, in addition to Shen Yinqiu's people, there were only Lu Tuzhi and the two maids beside her.
Lu Tuzhi glanced at Qianguang and Qianyun, who can jump into the lake to save the savior regardless of the danger of his life, he can rest assured that he is loyal.
"What does Sister Lu want to tell me?" Shen Yinqiu pretended to be innocent.
Lu Tuzhi's gaze fell on her, a little complicated, "Sister Yinqiu, do you know the prince of Beining?" ”
Shen Yinqiu was stunned, the prince of Beining? Who? Shaking his head, he said, "I haven't heard of ......."
"Well, have you ever seen a man who is weak?"
Shen Yinqiu's brain instantly jumped out of Wan Qiyan's figure, but she continued without changing her face: "No, but when I returned to Beijing and lived at home for a few days, I was sent to Zhuangzi in the countryside, I was seriously injured and hurt my eyes, and I still don't know anyone, speaking of which, I don't even know what Sister Lu looks like." ”
Her answer was undoubtful, Lu Zhizhi saw that Shen Yinqiu really didn't know Brother Yan, but Brother Yan was so nervous about her and didn't seem to be cheating, why?
Shen Yinqiu said that he was a little aggrieved: "That...... What does Sister Lu mean by asking? ”
Only then did Lu Tuzhi realize that it was very inappropriate for her to ask like that. hurriedly apologized and appeased Shen Yinqiu.
However, Shen Yinqiu had already noticed that Lu Tuzhi's question was not at all to investigate why she fell into the water, and her heart was a little colder, she was not dead, so this matter was a trivial matter in the eyes of everyone, and if she died, it was estimated that she would not make any trouble! It's ironic.
If it was Shen Jinqiu falling into the water, would he still be so calm?
Out of apology just now, Lu Tuzhi reminded Shen Yinqiu: "Sister Yinqiu, don't blame me for sowing discord, it's just that there is something wrong with your sister, so you should be more careful on weekdays." ”
Shen Jinqiu is not good, she naturally knows, but the young lady of the General's Mansion came forward to remind her, she should have noticed something?
Maybe her falling into the water is really inseparable from Shen Jinqiu.
