Chapter 020: Li's thoughts
In the painting brocade garden, the lights are dim.
The anger of the Li family, who had been grounded, gradually calmed down.
"Xiuxin, I really regret it! This little slut shouldn't have been spared in the first place! Li's brows tightened, and he forced the anger in his chest to dare to say viciously.
"I can't complain about Madame. In the past, the second lady looked stupid and willful, who could have seen that she had such a deep mind. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Mama Zhu wouldn't believe that everything that happened in the daytime was actually designed by the second lady who had always been at the mercy of others.
Speaking of Xiao Xiwei, Li almost bit a mouthful of jade teeth with hatred.
She never thought that she would plant herself twice in the hands of this little girl who was never in her eyes!
"In the past, I was too careless, but if this little slut dares to oppose me three or four times, then I will leave her behind......" Li bit his lip tightly, his slender eyes shining with resentment.
"What do you want to do, ma'am?"
Li Shi glanced at Mama Zhu, the corners of his lips hooked up a sinister smile, raised his hand and took a sip of tea elegantly before he said lightly, "You say, what is the most important thing for a woman?" ”
Mama Zhu thought for a while, then looked up at Li Shi Dao suddenly, "It's the appearance!" “
"Not bad!" Li Shiyan smiled, "If her face is ruined, I see how she can fight with Xile!" ”
"But now the old lady and the old man are on the side of the second lady, if the lady does it at this time, I am afraid that it will ......"
The corners of Li's lips pursed, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Xiuxin, there are some things that you don't have to do yourself, in a few days, shouldn't our fourth young lady also come back?" ”
Mama Zhu nodded suddenly in realization, "It's still Mrs. Smart." ”
When Li heard this, he smiled again, and the anger in his chest seemed to dissipate a lot.
Seeing that Li's mood seemed to be much better, Mama Zhu whispered, "Madam, Mama Cui has been waiting outside for a long time, look ......?"
Li sneered, "Let her in!" ”
After Li's words, Mama Zhu was busy and led people in.
As soon as Mama Cui entered the house, she immediately knelt in front of Li, "Madam......
Li's eyebrows were raised, and his cold eyes moved back and forth on Cui Mama's body like knives.
Mama Cui was so frightened that she didn't dare to make a sound, she only lowered her head desperately, and a dense layer of cold sweat oozed from her forehead.
"Mama Cui, when you gave birth to a child and were beaten half to death by your husband, I think you are pitiful so I let you enter the house to be the nurse of the second lady. I didn't expect you to repay you, but I can't tolerate your betrayal! Li said coldly.
Mama Cui hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Li family, "Madame's great kindness to the slave maid, the slave maid has always remembered it in her heart, and she doesn't dare to forget it for a moment." ”
"Really?" The corners of Li's lips hooked, and before the smile was over, his face suddenly sank, and the teacup in his hand slammed towards Mama Cui, "Then tell me what's going on today?" If I'm not mistaken, did you say that Xiao Xiwei made a puppet and cursed me, and asked Hongyu to bury the puppet under the plum tree? ”
"Yes...... It's ......" Mama Cui's frightened voice also trembled with fear.
"Then how do you say that the birthday on the puppet is the master? And what about the wound on the slut's hand? Isn't it, you and that slut teamed up to put me together! Li shouted.
"Nope! No! No! Even if a slave has a hundred guts, she will not dare to betray her wife! Cui Mama hurriedly raised her head and hurriedly distinguished herself, "Not to mention that Madame has a great kindness to the slave maid, that is, the life of the slave and maid's family is pinched in the hands of Madame, how dare the slave and maid ......" In the end, Mama Cui's tears fell out.
"Madam, Madam Cui has been loyal to Madame all these years, and Madame can't help but believe her again." Mama Zhu persuaded beside her.
Li snorted coldly and did not answer.
Mama Cui hurriedly kowtowed to the Li family a few more times, "Please also ask Madame to give the slave another chance." ”
Li stared at Mama Cui, and after a while, she finally withdrew her cold gaze, "Since Xiuxin intercedes for you, then I will believe you again." But if you miss again this time, then ......"
Mama Cui was like being amnestied, and hurriedly kowtowed a few more times to the Li family, "Madame, don't worry, the slave and maid must be careful this time, and they will never disappoint Madame again." ”
Li nodded, "You come here." ”
After listening to Li's words, Mama Cui looked horrified, "Madam...... This...... Will this work? ”
"Just do what I say!" Li's eyes were slight, revealing a fierce murderous aura.
Although Mama Cui was panicked, she finally nodded in response. After she left, Mama Zhu walked up to Li and pinched her shoulders for her, and said to Li carefully, "Madam, can Mama Cui really deceive the second lady by doing this?" “
"What do you think?" Li raised his eyebrows, and looked at Mama Cui with a smile.
"The slave thinks that the second miss is so shrewd, but I am afraid that even if Mama Cui does what Mrs. Cui says, I am afraid that the second miss may not believe it." Mama Zhu said.
Li smiled, "Since that girl has long been suspicious of Mama Cui, she naturally won't trust her easily." ”
"That lady is doing this......" Mama Zhu became more and more puzzled.
"Since that girl knows that Mama Cui is my person, she will naturally find out that she went out of my yard to say those words to her, so she will only be more suspicious and wary of Mama Cui......" Li said this, the smile on the corner of her mouth became brighter and brighter, "But she never expected that the person who wanted to attack her was not Mama Cui." ”
When Mama Zhu heard this, she suddenly realized, "The slave is really stupid, or is the lady smart, just like what people often say...... What Zhuge is. ”
"Female middle Zhuge !" Li replied with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes." Mama Zhu nodded again and again.
The master and servant burst into laughter.
And at this moment, in a side room in the backyard of Shuying Xuan, Biyun had just taken out Hongyu's blood-stained clothes.
"Does the wound still hurt?" Xiao Xiwei looked at Hongyu, who was lying on the bed with a pale face, his chest seemed to be blocked by something, he was depressed and guilty, and at the same time, he was also full of distress, and his tears couldn't help but fall.
Hongyu pulled out a smile and said without any guilt, "Miss, what's wrong?" It is very common for slaves and maids to be punished for doing something wrong. ”
"Why did you run out and say you spilled the tea?" Xiao Xi said slightly.
Hongyu looked at Xiao Xiwei and smiled faintly, "I said that I knocked it over, and it is more believable than Miss said that she accidentally burned the incense, isn't it?" Besides, the slave is your girl, and the girl's duty is not to protect the young lady from any harm. That's what slaves are supposed to do. ”
The tip of Xiao Xi's nose was slightly sour, and tears suddenly fell.
She remembered her previous life, Hongyu was also like now, although she didn't say much, she always protected her silently, but in the end, she was ......
"Hongyu, thank you......" Xiao Xiwei's voice was a little choked.
Thank you for giving me this warmth in this cool world, making me believe that there are still people in this world who are sincere to me.
Hearing Xiao Xiwei's words, Hongyu was a little panicked, "Miss, slave maid...... The slave is just a girl, and she can't afford to say that. ”
Xiao Xiwei looked at her but only smiled lightly, with a bit of gloom and loss in her smile, "If it weren't for you, I'm just afraid that it would be difficult to believe in people's hearts......"
Hongyu looked at Xiao Xiwei's expression, knowing that she was disappointed because of Mama Cui's betrayal, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her heart.
Coming out of Hongyu's room, as soon as I closed the door, I saw Grandma Cui standing in the courtyard nervously, and saw her hesitantly said, "Miss, slave maid...... The slave maid has something to say to the young lady. ”
Xiao Xi raised his eyes slightly and looked at Mama Cui, as if he expected what she was going to say, and lightly threw down a sentence, "Come with me." Then he walked past Mama Cui.
Mama Cui took a deep breath, remembered Li's words, and hurriedly followed.
The house was lit with sandalwood, and the faint fragrance was lingering.
As soon as she entered the house, Mama Cui knelt down directly, and before she could speak, she directly kowtowed to Xiao Xi three times.
"Mama, what are you doing?"
