After a day of following the East Garden's maid's ass, I still didn't get any reliable news.

The firecrackers were so tired that he almost crawled back to his small courtyard with his hands and feet.

I was about to push open the door, but in the afterglow, I suddenly felt that something seemed to be wrong in the courtyard tonight.

She turned around and cautiously glanced at the small courtyard, and sure enough, on a large tree clinging to the courtyard wall, she saw a dark shadow.

"This ..... This isn't an assassin, is it? Or did the eldest lady finally send someone to kill me? ”

Firecracker's mind turned back and forth, her body was clinging to the window, she wanted to call Lihua and Ruyu out,

After thinking about it, if he really came to kill someone, they couldn't beat him with one enemy and three enemies, in case he had any secret weapons in his hand, wouldn't it hurt Ruyu and them?

Firecracker's little heart was pounding, even more panicked than the last time she bumped into the pearl finch and was killed.

"Today's moon is dark and windy, and it is really suitable for killing people......"

"What should I do? Forget it, the enemy doesn't move, I don't move, I can't startle the snake. ”

Firecrackers froze there and didn't dare to move, wondering if the guy in the tree would be able to run out of the courtyard gate if he really turned over and rushed down the tree and rushed towards her.

After about half an hour, the seemingly frozen shadow on the tree finally moved, and then jumped down, and the frightened firecracker almost sat on the ground.

"It's ..... Ready to get your hands dirty? Run, run! Firecrackers cried in their hearts, but why didn't these legs fight for strength and didn't have any strength?

When did she become so scared of death?

Firecracker watched the black shadow approach her, and only remembered to scream when she saw his knife-sharp eyes.

But the cry came to her lips and swallowed again, for she saw that the black shadow had only glanced at her, and walked towards the gate of the courtyard on her own.

"It's ...... What's the situation? He..... He's not a killer? Firecracker stared at his back with round eyes, turned a corner and disappeared into the darkness.

He ..... Is he here for a walk? ”

"Who the hell is this guy? He doesn't know the rules! Seeing that he didn't come to kill her, the firecrackers suddenly gained momentum again.

"This is my aunt's yard, when will it become a back garden, you can come and go if you want!"

"Pretending to be that ghost, I'm scared half to death! I'm so! Good thing no one saw ......"

Firecrackers vigilantly looked around again, and after making sure that there was no one else in the yard, he tidied up his clothes and pretended to push the door calmly.

"Just back? Any news on this? Ruyu still didn't sleep, and watched her return like a night owl every night.

"No..... The third lady is still half-dead....."

The firecrackers didn't even bother to take off their shirts and lay on the bed.

"Alas, the second lady and the third lady have had a long-standing grudge, and this time the third lady has an accident, and the second lady can be regarded as spitting out her chest."

"What grievances do the two of them have?" Firecracker asked, looking up.

"It happened many years ago, when I didn't enter the house yet, I heard from Pear Blossom."

"Tell me about ......"

"The second lady was pregnant with a child just after the second year of entering the house, but her child was later lost and not born.

At that time, the relationship between her and the third lady who had just passed the door was quite calm, even if they didn't like each other, they would not argue face to face. ”

"Is this matter related to the third lady?"

"It doesn't matter, it's because the second lady's physique is too weak."

"Then they ......"

"Listen to me first!" Ruyu interrupted her question.

"Oh......"

Firecrackers obediently turned over and listened.

"After another two years, the third lady became pregnant, and the third lady at that time was still a well-known lady, who did not fight or grab, and was deeply loved by the next generation, just like the eldest lady."

"Same as the Grand Lady? Loved by the next generation? Hearing this, the firecrackers couldn't help but shiver.

"It's just that this child, in the second year of life, contracted a serious illness and died soon after. During those days, the third lady was in a trance, and she washed her face with tears all day long, which was really pitiful for me.

At that time, the lord was also very fond of the third lady, and when he was free, he ran to the North Park to comfort the third lady who lost her child's heartache, and soon the next year, after the third lady recovered, she became pregnant with a child.

At the same time, there is also a second lady who conceived a child a month apart. ”

"What? Are they both pregnant at the same time? ”

"Yes, the second lady, who had already experienced a miscarriage at that time, has become more domineering, irritable and irritable, but the only one who can live peacefully with her is the third lady."

"Third lady?" Firecracker couldn't help but drop his jaw when he heard this.

"Two women who have also experienced the pain of losing a child will inevitably sympathize with each other, and when they are occasionally free, they will meet to hang out by the lake and chat together."

"Really, I can't imagine it....." Firecracker pouted.

On that day, the two met at the lake again, the third lady had a seven-month-old belly, and the second lady had a six-month-old child in her belly.

Pear Blossom said that the two ladies were chatting very speculatively at that time, so they drove their respective maids to guard aside, and only the two of them were left.

Originally, Pear Blossom didn't sleep well last night, and thought that while the masters were chatting privately, she could hide behind the rockery and take a nap for a while.

As a result, she didn't even think about it, she didn't even find a nest, but she heard the second lady's cry for help from the lake, and she and a few maids were scared and hurriedly ran over.

But I saw that the second lady had fallen into the center of the lake and was desperately fluttering, while the third lady was standing on the stone bridge made of stone piers and shouting loudly.

Several subordinates took off their shoes and socks and hurriedly jumped down, saving the second lady who was about to sink.
