Chapter 167: Weird

Xiao Jinyue glanced at the tray in the maid's hand, and then raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Tai.

I don't know what the second lady told her, Mrs. Tai laughed while listening, even the wrinkles at the end of her eyes were full of kindness, and the whole person looked no different from the rich and gentle Mrs. Tai in other mansions.

"Bang, bang......, bang

In the Songhe Hall, where the atmosphere is warm and peaceful, there is a sudden sound of pots and bowls smashing on the ground.

Everyone was taken aback, and followed the sound to see the maid who was walking over with soothing tea, with a white face, looking at the torn tea bowl on the floor at a loss.

"What's going on?" Seeing that Anshen Tea was smashed to the ground, Mrs. Tai turned her head and stared at the maid sternly.

The maid was startled by this stern voice, and knelt down with a pop, "Slave...... The slave maid's hands trembled suddenly, smashed, smashed the soothing tea, and begged Mrs. Tai for forgiveness......"

Xiao Jinyue didn't expect to find this kind of accident, and suddenly the afterglow swept to a fiery red figure on the beam of the room, and while everyone was looking at the maid, Xiao Jinyue quietly looked up.

Chi Yan was hiding on the beam above, and when he saw her coming, he bared his teeth at her, pointed to the broken tea bowl on the ground, and then shook his head and waved at her.

Xiao Jinyue was surprised, didn't Chi Yan always play with Xiao Bai on the island in the middle of the lake in the backyard of Shi'an Yuan, when did he come to Songhe Hall, secretly hid on the beams of the house, and took the opportunity to smash the soothing tea brought by the maid with a small pebble.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, Xiao Jinyue hurriedly motioned for it to leave quickly.

Mama Gong didn't expect that it would be so dignified, how could the maid smash the tea bowl. Seeing Mrs. Tai's displeased, she quickly twisted her eyebrows and reprimanded, "Why are you clumsy, you can't even hold a tray. Don't hurry down, bring another bowl. ”

Xiao Jinyue didn't look at the maid, but quickly glanced at Mrs. Tai and saw her staring at the maid sternly.

A strangeness rose in her heart, the maid just accidentally smashed a bowl of soothing tea, and the kind lady had a stern face, and even a trace of gloom.

Xiao Jinyue rolled her eyes, and took the opportunity to smile and say, "Forget it, it's just a bowl of soothing tea, and if you smash it, you will smash it." Mrs. Tai, Shi'an Yuan also has soothing tea, and it is the same for granddaughter-in-law to drink it when she goes back.

It's not early, you have come back from such a long way today, you must be tired, your granddaughter-in-law will not disturb your purity here, and I will come back tomorrow morning to greet you. ”

She wanted to go back, but Mrs. Tai disagreed, and said with a smile on her face, "Don't worry, Mama Gong has cooked a lot of soothing tea, and there are still a lot of them, let the maid bring another bowl over, you drink it while it's hot, so as not to toss it when you go back to Shi'an Yuan." ”

At this time, Mrs. Tai was smiling, and even the wrinkles on her face were full of love, but for some reason, Xiao Jinyue just felt that such a Mrs. Tai had a trace of indescribable weirdness.

Xiao Jinyue frowned, Mrs. Tai is like this, if she has to drink this bowl of soothing tea, she can't push it off.

But after a while, the maid just now hurriedly walked in with a bowl of soothing tea on a tray.

Xu saw that everyone was staring at him, and the maid suddenly felt a burst of nervousness, worried that she had smashed the medicine bowl again, and couldn't help but swallow her saliva quietly, and held the tray in her hand tighter, and even her hurried pace slowed down.

Xiao Jinyue stared at the maid slowly, step by step towards herself, and as she got closer and closer, the familiar smell of medicine just now drifted close to her nose again.

Her heart sank, and she looked at Mrs. Tai, who was talking to the county lord of Chang'an, with the corner of her eye, but saw that she had a gentle demeanor, spoke slowly and without hurry, and even the action of serving tea was not unusual.

Xiao Jinyue retracted her gaze, facing the maid who was still a few steps away from her, her lips moved slightly, "Split", and Yan Ling rushed towards the medicine bowl on the tray with a secret divine light.

"Smack......

In front of everyone's eyes, the night's soothing tea on the tray suddenly exploded, and everyone couldn't help but be startled again.

The maid stared at the torn tea bowl on the tray in a daze, even with her eyes open, and she didn't even notice that the clothes in front of her were splashed with tea.

When she realized that the soothing tea had been smashed again, the maid's face turned white with fright, and she even suspected that she had seen a ghost in broad daylight. Although this bowl of tea fried suddenly, in fact, at the first time, she sensed that something was wrong.

It wasn't that she smashed the tea bowl with a sudden tremor in her hand, but that her wrist was suddenly hit by something, and under the pain, coupled with the sudden fright, the tray in her hand was not held steady.

But at that time, there was no one around her, whether it was the lady and the girls in the second or third room, they were still some distance away from her, and she didn't see anyone smashing her with anything.

The medicine bowl was smashed, and she wanted to say that someone had hit her with something, but she had neither evidence nor witnesses. In desperation, he can only take the fault on himself.

Mrs. Tai's face sank, and she wanted to open her mouth to scold the maid who served the medicine, but the medicine bowl suddenly exploded in front of everyone's eyes, so it was not to blame her for not serving the bowl well.

But Mama Gong scolded the maid and covered her face, "You girl, how do you do things, no matter how anxious you are, you can't take a bowl with cracks to fill the medicine."

So stupid, what are you doing here stupidly, why don't you hurry up and get down, go to Mama Dong to learn the rules again, if you don't learn well, you are not allowed to come back to do things in the future. ”

Mama Gong scolded while snatching the tray from her hand, and the maid didn't dare to say a word, only with a white face and red eyes, and retreated reluctantly.

Seeing that Mrs. Tai's face was not worried, Mama Gong put on a smiling face, turned her head to Xiao Jinyue and said, "Wait a minute, the old slave will come over with a bowl of soothing tea immediately, soon, you wait a little longer." ”

Xiao Jinyue glanced at Mama Gong lightly, but didn't answer her words. She wanted to see how many bowls of soothing tea they had prepared for her.

The second lady and the third lady quietly glanced at each other, did not say anything, chatted casually, and sipped tea.

The county lord of Chang'an also didn't seem to see the scene just now, and asked Mrs. Tai in a soft voice again about the itinerary all the way.

Several girls looked at each other for a while, although they felt that the medicine bowl broke suddenly, but Mrs. Tai didn't say anything, and they only dared to murmur secretly in their hearts, and didn't dare to say a word.

Facing the crowd with different expressions and standing by, Xiao Jinyue sneered in his heart. She wasn't in a hurry to leave, she wanted to see how it would end in the end.

In just a few words, Mama Gong personally walked in with a bowl of soothing tea on a tray.

Although everyone was talking casually to the people around them on the surface, they were actually secretly watching Mama Gong's every move with their spare eyes.

After all, Mama Gong is a person who has been waiting by Mrs. Tai's side for most of her life, and she is naturally not afraid of everyone's eyes. Holding the tray with both hands, he walked steadily, and at this glance, he knew that the rules and etiquette had been carefully studied and studied.

Mrs. Tai saw Mama Gong personally holding the medicine bowl, and her gloomy expression eased unconsciously.

Xiao Jinyue's afterglow swept over Mrs. Tai's face, her mouth curled, and her blink returned to normal.

“…… Smack! ”

In front of everyone's eyes, Mama Gong fell heavily in front of Xiao Jinyue without warning.
