Chapter 022: Verify the Body
The old lady waved her hand impatiently and said, "Go down and receive the punishment yourself." ”
Mama Liu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly retreated.
Lu, who was sitting at the bottom, blushed, she couldn't hear it, the old lady was scolding her, scolding her for not doing things properly, and scolding her for not being able to get on the stage......
Lu's heart was aggrieved, but if she married a wife, she had to listen to her mother-in-law's family, so she could only hold back her displeasure and whispered: "Mother, I didn't do that thing in Qingluo, please punish my mother." ”
The old lady saw that the suppression was almost over, so she smiled and said: "It's all the people below who can't do things, so don't take it too seriously, just train the people below in the future." ”
"Yes." Lu replied respectfully.
"That Fang Qingluo hadn't been so noisy before, was she really almost dead? Someone can't be pointing her behind her back, right? The old lady asked suddenly.
The Lu family was stunned, Fang Qingluo's yard was very desolate, and Fang Qingluo was surrounded by a nurse and a maid, all of whom were not powerful characters, if he could really help Fang Qingluo make suggestions behind his back, then Fang Qingluo would not be mixed up to the point where he is today. Could it be that there is some outsider to support her? Thinking of this, Lu immediately became nervous.
"Mother, I'll let people find out secretly immediately." Lu said hurriedly. "She has been a little different from the past recently, I can't say what is different, I have placed people in her courtyard, and I have been exploring her details in the past two days."
The old lady nodded, "It's good that you understand in your heart, okay, you go down and get busy, I'm also tired." ”
As soon as the Lu family left Ronghua Residence, he explained to Mama Li behind him: "Let the four of them polish their eyes and keep an eye on Fang Qingluo!" Then let the security manager arrange a team of guards to keep an eye on Liuzhuju to see if there are any suspicious people entering or leaving. ”
"Yes." Mama Li answered and hurriedly arranged it.
In Liuzhu Curie, Fang Qingluo was leisurely half leaning on the bed, drinking the millet porridge brought by Gu's mother, his eyes narrowed into a slit. This millet porridge is very bad, and a little sugar is put in it. She hadn't been so relaxed in years, and it would be nice to be able to live again.
However, Fang Qingluo smiled bitterly in his heart, this leisure is only temporary, the eldest lady outside is eyeing her, and the third young master who doesn't like her, things are not so simple to pass, even if she doesn't have the same knowledge as them, will they let her be at peace? Besides, she Fang Qingluo is not the owner of the nest who can swallow everything, and Lan Zhi has not been rescued yet, so the matter can't be left like this.
After Fang Qingluo drank the millet porridge, she handed the bowl to the peony, leaving Gu's mother to speak alone.
"Mom, if those four people come to inquire about something these days, you pretend not to know and let them go."
Gu's mother was a little anxious when she heard this, "Then it's okay for them to go back and tell the eldest lady?" If the eldest lady knew that you were not as easy a bully as you used to be, she didn't know what to do. ”
"If you know, she'll have to know sooner or later." Fang Qingluo snorted coldly and said, "Don't worry, let them see what they can also let the eldest lady know, otherwise they won't be able to find out any news, let alone stop." ”
"That's the same thing, I know." Gu's mother nodded and said.
After Gu's mother went down, Fang Qingluo squinted for a while, her current health was extremely poor, and she was very tired after a while, she was very depressed about this, she just wanted to find a chance to recuperate quickly, but it was a pity that it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.
In the evening, Peony waited for Fang Qingluo to bathe and change clothes, Fang Qingluo explained to Gu's mother during the day, it was best to boil water and bathe her every day in the future, even if it couldn't be every day, at worst, once every three days, otherwise she would be uncomfortable. In this era, it is not popular to take a bath frequently, so Gu's mother was stunned when she heard it, Miss Xindao didn't have this habit before, and with the current conditions of Liuzhuju, how can there be those firewood? But Gu's mother didn't say this, she just wanted to think about it tomorrow by herself, as long as the young lady was happy.
When Peony prepared bath water for Fang Qingluo, the new maid Yuxiu always came forward, Peony was a refusal, glared at Yuxiu a few times, and said, "Miss asked you to wait outside, do you know the rules?" Don't bump into Miss! ”
Yuxiu is the girl who is dressed up a little gorgeously, and her eyes are also dripping and rolling, and she is not an honest person at first glance, but Yuxiu also has advantages, that is, she has a sweet mouth and thick skin, she was not annoyed when she was reprimanded by Peony, and said with a smile: "Sister Peony is right, I don't think this came to help much, and I don't want to go?" You're the big girl in front of the young lady, can't I give you a hand in the future? ”
Peony didn't eat her set, didn't look at her, and said coldly: "Excuse me, be honest." ”
Fang Qingluo heard it clearly in the room, and felt funny in his heart, this Yuxiu couldn't hold his breath so quickly, it seems that the people sent by the Lu clan are not all powerful.
In the evening of the next day, Fang Qingluo waited in the room as usual to prepare for a bath, but it was not the peony that brought in the water, but the maid named Xiao Gui who looked at Mu Ne.
The corners of Fang Qingluo's mouth were slightly raised, she couldn't understand what the situation was, but on the surface, she pretended to be vigilant and asked, "Why are you?" What about peonies? ”
Xiao Gui added the water from the wooden bucket to the bath bucket, lowered his head and said, "Back to Miss, Peony has gone to get the moon silver, let the slave come over to serve Miss." ”
"What about Mother Gu?" Fang Qingluo asked again.
"The slave doesn't know." Xiao Gui didn't talk much, so he answered honestly when he asked.
"Then come on, the water should not be too hot." Fang Qingluo said that her current body is too weak, and if the water is too hot, she may faint in the bathtub.
"Yes." Xiao Gui replied respectfully, then quickly prepared the bath water with his hands and feet, and stood quietly aside waiting for Fang Qingluo's arrangement.
Fang Qingluo knew that this person was arranged by the Lu family to "verify her identity", she went out for a long time, and when she came back, she was not as cowardly as before, and it was normal to be suspected of being fake, but what was she afraid of? This body is like a fake, although the inside is different, but have they found it?
She took off her clothes as she had done before and sat down in the tub.
Xiao Gui has been secretly looking at Qingluo's body, but her movements are very cautious, she saw Fang Qingluo wash up, and then she had the courage to say, "Miss, I'll help you rub your back." ”
"Okay, lighter." Fang Qingluo replied very lightly, as if he was about to fall asleep leaning on the bathtub.
Xiao Gui carefully slapped a handkerchief to wipe Fang Qingluo's back, and reached out to tie up Fang Qingluo's hair and pull it all to his head. Fang Qingluo leaned motionlessly, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
When taking a bath before, Peony said that she had a birthmark on the back of her neck, but she couldn't see it herself, so she asked curiously what Peony looked like, and later the two also drew on the paper, and Fang Qingluo knew that the birthmark on the back of her neck was dark red, but Peony said that it was not ugly at all, and it was shaped like a butterfly.
Because at this time, the girl's hairstyle should be left with some hair draped over her shoulders, so the back of Fang Qingluo's neck has been covered by hair, which is not good-looking on weekdays, but it is different when taking a bath, not only can you see it, but you can also rub it to see if it is painted.
Others don't know that Fang Qingluo has this birthmark, but Lu, as a stepmother, can't not know, so this is Lu's method of determining Fang Qingluo's authenticity.
Sure enough, Xiao Gui rubbed the back of Fang Qingluo's neck, it seems that Xiao Gui is not as wooden as she looks on the surface, and it can be seen from this that she is careful.
When Fang Qingluo came out of the bath, he half leaned on the bed, while Xiao Gui packed up the bath bucket and retreated. Fang Qingluo looked through the crack in the window, and sure enough, Xiao Gui sneaked out of the courtyard.
Xiao Gui went to report to the eldest lady Lu, Fang Qingluo naturally wouldn't stop her, she was glad that the Lu family knew the result.
Fang Qingluo got dressed and walked around the courtyard, Gu's mother and Peony were obviously opened, and Yuxiu and the other two mothers-in-law didn't know where to run, these people's minds were not in this courtyard, they had to sneak out and go around if they had nothing to do, Fang Qingluo told Gu's mother not to stop them, anyway, they wouldn't stay long, let them go.
Since no one was staring at her, she naturally wouldn't let go of such a great opportunity, so it was better to go around the yard and maybe find a few useful herbs, she was in dire need of herbs to condition her body now.
Fang Qingluo walked out of the Liuzhu Residence towards the west, she remembered that the west was more desolate, and the east was the courtyard of the Hou Ye and the old lady, and it was not safe in the past.
Soon after she left, she saw a flower called October incense, which bloomed large pale red flowers for ornamental purposes, but many people did not know that October incense had other effects, such as making people excited.
Fang Qingluo picked a few October incense flowers and held them in his hand, just like a girl picking flowers, even if someone saw this scene, they would not doubt it.
She took a handful of October incense and continued to walk forward, the sky was gradually darkening, and she was thinking about whether to return the way she came, when she suddenly heard a strange voice, although it was very light, it did not escape Fang Qingluo's ears.
It's a woman's voice! Fang Qingluo immediately judged it, she hurriedly slowed down her steps and walked forward cautiously, and soon she heard a man's voice again.
"Little thing, you're getting more and more waves, are you honest when you say I'm not there?"
The woman's breathing was a little short, and her voice was soft: "Wrongdoer, I am all yours, I can't live if I don't see you for a day, can I still tolerate others in my heart?" ”
"Hmph, I'm afraid you can't bear the loneliness!" The man's voice couldn't help but be a little cold as he spoke, and his big hand pinched the woman's body a few times.
Fang Qingluo got closer and heard it clearly, the man's voice was too familiar, wasn't it the third young master Mu Yunjue who made her look the most uncomfortable? Dare to love her before she didn't start hard enough, Mu Yunjue was able to cheat with someone so soon.
