Chapter 39: They Must Have Secrets That No One Knows
Ling Rou really asked Xiuqiao to call Sihua, Xiuqiao rubbed her already red and swollen face, lowered her head and went to Magnolia Garden.
Sihua was dozing off Aunt Liu's back while she caught a glimpse of Xiuqiao waving at her outside the courtyard gate from a distance, and she could only pretend not to see.
Aunt Liu has been angry with Aunt Chen for a long time, and she has to keep her distance from the people in Fenghe Garden. If she can't see it, if she sees it, she can get it?
Seeing that she was ignoring herself, Xiuqiao secretly scolded in her heart, and she couldn't do her errand, so she had no choice but to muster up the courage to go in.
"Slave Xiuqiao has seen Aunt Liu." Her voice is very soft, which will not startle Aunt Liu, who is napping, and let her hear.
Aunt Liu raised her eyes slightly, glanced at her, and said lazily: "Yo, Xiuqiao, haven't you been serving the second miss, why do you have time to come over now?" ”
Xiuqiao said respectfully: "The slave is here to find Sihua." ”
Aunt Liu was suspicious: "What is the matter with Sihua?" ”
"It's ......," Xiuqiao didn't dare to say.
Aunt Liu changed her position and lay down, her white hand supporting her chin: "Unspeakable? You won't take Sihua to see Ah Yun again, right? ”
She also heard about the farce and was really speechless.
Xiuqiao's face flushed, and Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Sihua doing the same, and said, "No...... No......"
I had to tell the truth: "It was the second lady who asked Sihua to go, she had something to ask Sihua ......"
Aunt Liu waved her hand, and her voice was still lazy: "You said it earlier." Sihua, go ahead. ”
She didn't ask anything, anyway, Sihua would still tell her when she came back, why bother to increase right and wrong?
When she arrived at the Wind Lotus Garden, Sihua told Ling Rou what she had seen yesterday, and she was even more puzzled when she heard it.
"So they're not going to Yuming Temple today."
"Huh?" Sihua was a little strange, "Who is the second lady talking about?" ”
Ling Rou came back to her senses and said impatiently, "Ah, what? It's okay, you go back. By the way, no one is allowed to tell you anything I ask, or I will never spare you! ”
Sihua turned around and told Aunt Liu about the conversation with Ling Rou, and Aunt Liu's lazy eyes immediately turned into surprise.
I just thought it was strange when I heard about that incident yesterday, but I didn't expect Ling Rou to doubt it too, so it was interesting.
I heard Sihua mention Yuming Temple again, and asked, "Is it really Yuming Temple?" ”
Sihua rubbed her face and nodded: "Well, it's Yuming Temple, but the slave doesn't know who that 'they' are." ”
Aunt Liu glanced at her with disgust, who else could there be? Naturally, it's Aunt Chen and Yigui.
"Sihua, dress me up."
After a while, Aunt Liu, who was dressed up, arrived at Lanyue Xuan gracefully.
At this time, the sun is just right, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the years are so quiet that they are like a paradise.
Ling Yue was lying on a rattan chair, her face covered with an emerald green lotus leaf, leisurely.
Qingyin Hongguo sat on the side and embroidered, funny from time to time.
Ah Yun was reading intently.
Aunt Liu glanced at Ah Yun, this kid's appearance has risen sharply since his leg has healed, and even she can't help but take a few looks, let alone those little maids.
"Miss, are you resting?" She smiled and walked to the side and put down a plate of snacks.
Ling Yue knew it was her when she heard the voice, and took off the lotus leaf: "Auntie is here." The weather is good today, and I feel sleepy while sitting. ”
Hongguo moved a chair for Aunt Liu, and Qingyin went to make tea. Taking advantage of this effort, Aunt Liu said, "Eldest Lady, are you interested in going to Yuming Temple with me to pray for blessings?" ”
Prays?
Ling Yue spent half of the short time she wore in Yuming Temple, and she really didn't want to go.
Aunt Liu looked around, and her eyes fell on Ah Yun.
Ah Yun understood what she meant, thinking that there was something that could not be heard by outsiders, so she took the book and was about to retire.
Ling Yue signaled that it didn't matter to him, and said with a smile: "Auntie, there are no outsiders in this courtyard, just say it directly." ”
Since she said so, Aunt Liu didn't hide it anymore.
"Just now, the second lady called Sihua over and asked about the one named Zhao Dayou and Yigui yesterday, obviously suspecting something. She also said, 'So they didn't go to Yuming Temple today.' ’”
After a pause, Aunt Liu said again: "I think Aunt Chen, Yi Gui and that Zhao Da have strange things, they must have secrets that no one knows." Miss, let's go to investigate together? ”
Sniffing probing?
Ling Yue couldn't help but re-examine Aunt Liu, why was she so enthusiastic?
Is it the nature of women to gossip, or is it that they have been angry for too long and must not miss any opportunity to step on Aunt Chen?
The Aunt Liu mentioned in the original book is a small transparent existence, who would have thought that she would be so full of vitality?
"Miss? What do you think? Aunt Liu pushed her, winked her eyes and said, "Go?" ”
Ling Yue was embarrassed: "Aunt Chen has always been clean and self-conscious, how can she have anything to do with that sloppy Huazi?" A relationship that is not yet known? I don't believe it. ”
Aunt Liu looked at her lovingly: "Miss, you are too easy to trust people. I'll tell you the truth, when I was serving beside the old lady, I heard the old man say that Aunt Chen was married! It's just that her husband died. ”
"Huh?" Ling Yue was frightened again, her mouth couldn't be closed, and she said in a trembling voice: "Auntie, are you serious?" ”
Aunt Liu said: "Of course it's true! How could the old man lie to the old lady? I think the eldest lady is sincere and kind to you. Moreover, the reason why the second lady called Sihua to inquire about yesterday's incident was obviously that Aunt Chen and Yigui were hiding it from her. ”
He cleared his throat and lowered his voice: "Miss, I won't tell you, I suspect that Zhao Da may know some of Aunt Chen's private affairs, otherwise what can't you say generously?" ”
Something private?
This aroused Ling Yue's interest, preferably when she was young, so that she might not be able to find out why she targeted Ah Yun.
Although it is not strange for an aunt to target a small girl, it is sixteen years for a young woman, which can't help but make people suspicious.
What's more, Ah Yun's identity is so special.
"Where does the aunt think they will be?"
"Yuming Temple!" Aunt Liu's tone was full of confidence.
"But isn't that a cover for people's eyes?"
Aunt Liu showed an unfathomable expression: "Miss, you are still young and don't know that woman yet." She and Yigui are the most cunning, believe me! ”
Ah Yun was worried about Ling Yue and wanted to accompany her, but she was afraid that if someone like Ye Liwu would make things difficult for him, she let him stay in the mansion, and she and Aunt Liu got into the carriage to Yuming Temple.
Because she had lived in the temple with Mrs. Xue for a period of time before, many monks knew her and respected her.
The two of them put on incense, added some sesame oil money, and were led to the meditation room to drink tea.
"Little master, thank you for your hard work." Ling Yue thanked him.
The little monk looked respectful: "Miss Ling is polite." ”
Ling Yue looked at the little monk and said with a smile: "Little master, our Aunt Chen will also come over to offer incense later, please tell her that we are waiting for her here." ”
The little monk was suspicious: "But she is already gone." ”
"Gone?" Aunt Liu sighed secretly, she was a step late.
The little monk said: "Yes, it's just a stick of incense." She and a grandmother went to the back mountain. The little monk persuaded them that there were snakes, insects, rats and ants in the back mountain, but they said that they were going to relax, and we were not allowed to follow. ”
Aunt Liu's eyes lit up: "How long have you been gone?" ”
"It's just a cup of tea."
