"This girl...... I'm Aunt Zhou's cousin, I'm from home, I'm looking for her for something, can you trouble the girl to let Aunt Zhou come out to see me? The man didn't know who this person was named Mingyue, and he didn't look like a girl in the house, but more like a maid ring next to the master.

The kind of girl who can call the shots.

Mingyue looked the man up and down a few times: "You are Aunt Zhou's cousin?" ”

"Right...... I'm her cousin, and if the girl doesn't believe me, you can ask her. The young man said cautiously, looking very uneasy.

Mingyue picked up the bead flower in her hand and looked at it: "The bead flower is proof? ”

"Yes, it's Zhuhua as proof, this is Aunt Zhou's, she must remember that there is also Aunt Zhou's mark on it." The man pointed to the bead flower path in Mingyue's hand.

"You came from Aunt Zhou's hometown, the road is not close, where do you live now?" Mingyue looked at the man and said.

"This ...... In fact, I have only arrived, and I have not yet decided where to live. The man lowered his head and said embarrassedly, he knew that he was shy at a glance, and he had a lot of time to travel all the way, and then looked at the clothes on his body that were very ordinary cloth, and there was a not very obvious hole in the corner of the clothes.

Sensing Mingyue's gaze falling on the corner of his clothes, the young man's face was slightly red, and his body unconsciously turned to the side, avoiding Mingyue's scrutiny.

"You wait." Mingyue looked at him carefully for a few times and then turned around and walked inside.

The mother-in-law at the back door didn't close the door again this time, leaving Aunt Zhou's cousin waiting at the back door.

"Girl, it's Mrs. Zhou's cousin, the slave looks like it's real, and it looks like she's rushed all the way over, it's just a ......little strange," Mingyue said here and paused.

This matter was not in her hands, but she happened to see the mother-in-law at the back door coming over in a hurry, as if something was wrong, Mingyue deliberately kept an eye on it and called the mother-in-law to stop.

"What's wrong?" Yu Xijiao raised her eyes and asked, Mingyue has always been cautious, what she said is not right, Yu Xijiao will still be concerned.

"Girl, look at this pearl flower...... This kind of beaded flower is a woman's object, even if it is a cousin, it is impossible to have it, but Mrs. Zhou's cousin has it, and the slave maid feels that this cousin is not ordinary. Mingyue placed the bead flower in front of Yu Xijiao and said in a low voice.

This kind of beaded flower and other women's personal things, if they really fall into the hands of this man, and they are taken out so generously, it is more like a certificate that the two families have a special relationship.

Looking at this pearl flower, Yu Xijiao remembered what happened when Mrs. Zhou took over the management of the house, there was a letter at that time, a letter that made Mrs. Zhou upset and almost caught Qian Shidao.

Yu Xijiao didn't look at it at the time, but then returned it to Mrs. Zhou, and the objects that Mrs. Zhou looked at at that time all showed that there was something strange about this matter.

"Girl, the person has arrived at the back door, do you want to report this matter to Mrs. Zhou?" Mingyue asked.

"Let's go, let's go see Mrs. Zhou." Yu Xijiao felt that it was better to go on her own, she felt suspicious about this matter at the time, and then there were many things, and she slowly forgot about it, but now she feels that she has to remind Mrs. Zhou.

Hearing that Yu Xijiao was coming, Mrs. Zhou hurriedly invited her in and sat down in the middle of the salute.

"Does Mrs. Zhou know this?" Yu Xijiao didn't make a detour, and directly took out a pair of beaded flowers and placed them on the table.

Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment, then stood up suddenly, looking excited: "This is...... My beaded flowers, I ...... My cousin sent someone? ”

Mrs. Zhou didn't reply to the last letter, but she didn't receive it, thinking that she wouldn't contact her again in the future, lest Master Hou find out how inconvenient it was, and then she couldn't explain it clearly, so she simply pressed it all, but when she heard the news from her cousin, she still couldn't help but feel turbulent.

"A man came at the back door, saying it was Mrs. Zhou's cousin." Yu Xijiao said.

"Really, great...... My cousin is here. Mrs. Zhou's eyes were red, she was now very beautiful in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, and she was surrounded by slaves and maids, but after the dead of night calmed down, her heart was very sad, her father passed away, the child in her belly was not saved, and there was no blood relative.

"Mrs. Zhou, you and your cousin...... Is there another reason for this pair of beaded flowers? Seeing her like this, Yu Xijiao was not in a hurry to urge, and asked only after she calmed down a little.

Mrs. Zhou's face turned red, pinched the handkerchief in her hand, and didn't know how to speak.

At the beginning, the two families actually had a verbal marriage contract, and this pair of beads was the evidence, but later their own family fell, and my aunt did not agree to this family matter, and then my father took himself into Beijing to seek fame in a fit of anger, but I didn't expect to end up in the capital, and I entered the Xuanping Marquis Mansion by mistake.

But how did she say this, even though the three girls opposite were smart, they were just a girl who had not yet come out of the cabinet.

"Has Mrs. Zhou ever discussed marriage with Cousin Ling?" Yu Xijiao saw that she was unable to speak for a while, so she simply opened her mouth.

Mrs. Zhou was shocked, and her eyes wandered and said, "Third girl, this matter has passed, and my aunt did not agree at that time. ”

"Even if my aunt disagrees, this token is still exchanged?" Yu Xijiao's gaze fell on the bead flowers, this pair of bead flowers actually explained the problem.

"Yes...... At that time, my grandmother and my aunt agreed to my grandmother's bedside, and my father gave me a gift of beads in my bun...... But after that, my father never succeeded, and my aunt didn't like me anymore and wanted my cousin to marry another high-ranking family...... Later, my cousin said that after my father was in high school, he would inevitably officially bring a dowry to the door. ”

Since it has been guessed, Yu Xijiao mentioned it first, Mrs. Zhou smiled bitterly and made the truth of the matter clear.

After listening to Mrs. Zhou, Yu Xijiao was silent for a moment and asked, "What does Mrs. Zhou think now?" ”

"Anyway, my cousin came to Beijing to find me, and I have to arrange it for him, and I wrote to my aunt before...... has passed away, and my cousin is now lonely. ”

Mrs. Zhou said.

"Where is Mrs. Zhou going to let him live?" Yu Xijiao asked rhetorically, she remembered that when the last letter was written, it was Qian's calculation, of course, this letter may also be true, but it was intercepted by Qian early and prepared to be used at the most appropriate time, when Mrs. Zhou threatened Qian to take charge of the inner courtyard.

"Naturally, I have to report this matter to Hou Ye, and ask Hou Ye to find a job for my cousin, since he is a relative, let him live in the outer courtyard temporarily, there is still a small courtyard empty in the outer courtyard, and no one usually lives in it."

Mrs. Zhou hurriedly said.

"What does Mrs. Zhou want to say to her father?" Yu Xijiao asked lightly, her long eyelashes fluttered twice, blinked, her eyes drooped slightly, "If my father asks about Zhuhua, what will Mrs. Zhou say?" ”

"I ......" Mrs. Zhou's face turned red and she was speechless.

"Mrs. Zhou is now my father's wife, and she is also the lady of the house, my father tried his best to promote you, and even invited King Duan and King Qi Shizi and some colleagues at that time, if Mrs. Zhou provoked gossip at this time, how would my father deal with himself, and what face would my father have in the future?"

Yu Xijiao said with a straight face.

"Yes...... But my cousin is a fox, and I always have to receive him. Mrs. Zhou stammered and bit her lip, "I will explain this matter clearly to Hou Ye, and I will definitely not let Hou Ye care." ”

"Clearly? Mrs. Zhou, how can this matter be clarified? When Mrs. Zhou entered the mansion at that time, she must not have told her father, you still have a cousin who almost got married, right? Yu Xijiao's face turned cold.

"I ......"

At that time, the Zhou family just wanted to bury their father properly, and they were desperate to return to their hometown, where would they say these things to Yu Ruiwen, and they all rotted in their stomachs in the end.

"I was ...... at that time I didn't expect my cousin to enter Beijing too, and he is now also alone. Mrs. Zhou burst into tears.

"How far is Mrs. Zhou's hometown from the capital?" Yu Xijiao asked.

"It's been about a month to get into Beijing, and my cousin must have endured a lot of hardships all the way to Beijing." Mrs. Zhou wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, although her aunt was treacherous, her cousin was still very good, she had protected herself since she was a child, but she would think about herself whenever she had anything delicious.

"It's about a month to travel normally, but if you borrow a post station to send a message, it's estimated that it will take eight or nine days!" Yu Xijiao calculated.

"This ...... How is it possible to send a message to the inn, cousin...... It's just a civilian, and the previous letter also turned around several times before arriving in the capital. Mrs. Zhou said.

"Does Mrs. Zhou think the previous letter has anything to do with Mrs. Zhou?" Yu Xijiao was silent for a while, and then suddenly asked.

Mrs. Zhou looked at her expression, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It should be related." ”

She just received the letter, Hou Ye brought someone over, the target is still the letter he received, fortunately there were three girls at the time, otherwise he jumped into the Yellow River at that time and couldn't wash it, the letter said that his cousin was willing to marry him.

The third girl didn't force herself later, and the matter was closed at that time.

"What kind of person does Mrs. Zhou think Madam is?" Yu Xijiao asked again.

"If it weren't for the third girl, I'm afraid I would have died at the hands of Madame." Mrs. Zhou lowered her head and smiled bitterly, fortunately there were three girls, if there were no three girls, even if she died, she would not be innocent.

"That being the case, Mrs. Zhou didn't catch Mrs. Zhou's handle at that time, does Mrs. Zhou think Mrs. will give up?" Yu Xijiao continued to ask.

The Qian family will not give up, and Mrs. Qian will not either.

Unlike Mrs. Zhou, Yu Xijiao felt that the hammer had not yet fallen.

The Qian family is locked up, isn't there still Mrs. Qian?

The most important point is that if the Qian family wants to find a chance to come out, Mrs. Zhou will inevitably get rid of it......

Mrs. Zhou pinched and put the handkerchief in her hand, put it and pinched it, and then said in a low voice: "No." ”

Madame wanted to put her to death at that time, but she was actually on guard at that time, for fear that Madame would not succeed in one plan and have another plan.

But in the end, she became a flat wife, and after Mrs. was locked up, there was no other movement, and Mrs. Zhou's heart was put down.

"Now Madame can't come out, even if Madame still wants to murder me, she can't." Mrs. Zhou bit her lip and said uneasily, and finally under the attention of Yu Xijiao's clear eyes, her heart jumped heavily, and her voice became softer and lower.

"Mrs. Zhou, shall I accompany you to meet this cousin now? See what he asks for, or what he wants to do? Yu Xijiao looked at Mrs. Zhou deeply, and suddenly proposed.

There are some things that you can't explain clearly, but it's better to see them clearly in person......
