Chapter 9: Temptation

"The fifth brother just accompanied me to the jade shop and picked a hosta. I thought this hosta was more suitable for you, so I brought it over! Jinyun took the hosta to Zhao Xinghui, and said with a smile: "Xinghui, I'll help you put it on!" ”

The moment he saw the hosta, Zhao Xinghui's pupils shrank.

She hurriedly stretched out her hand and blocked the hosta.

"Take it, I don't want your stuff!"

Jin Yun looked at her expressions one by one.

Originally, she just saw that Zhao Xinghui's face was not good, and she wanted to test it with the hosta, but she didn't expect her reaction to be so big!

She rolled her eyes and asked knowingly, "Xinghui, don't you like this hairpin?" The fifth brother said that the jade bracelet on her mother's wrist was chosen by you for her. I saw that you have a good eye for choosing jade jewelry, and I thought that you would study it because you liked it! ”

"What to study or not, I just choose randomly."

Hearing this, the corners of Jinyun's mouth hooked.

The person who accompanied Zhao Dui to buy a jade bracelet was really her!

Zhao Xinghui saw that she was smiling a little weirdly, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"You...... What are you laughing at? ”

"Looks like I misunderstood. Since you don't like hostas, then I'll take them. ”

As he spoke, Jinyun waved his hand and walked out with the hosta.

As soon as Zhao Xinghui breathed a sigh of relief, he saw her footsteps pause, and turned his head to look at the slightly bulging quilt stacked beside her.

"Your body hasn't recovered yet, don't be greedy!"

Jinyun smiled slightly, put down a sentence, and turned to leave the room.

Zhao Xinghui's face sank, turned his head to glare at Xiao Cui, and shouted angrily: "How did you watch the door, why did you let her in?" ”

"Miss, I'm sorry. The slave didn't expect her to come, and she didn't ...... for a while Didn't react. ”

"Useless stuff! If there is a next time, I will let the fifth brother buy you! ”

As soon as Zhao Dui was mentioned, Zhao Xinghui's face sank even more.

This woman has only been back for a few days, first she has enveloped her mother, and now even the fifth brother has been enveloped by her.

She said that the fifth brother didn't come to bring her breakfast today.

It turned out that he was busy taking this woman to the jade shop to pick out jewelry!

……

As soon as Zhao Dui came back, he went to Zhao Li's place to pay an errand.

After Zhao Li sent him away, he got up and went to the East Courtyard.

Jinyun was just about to look for her, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw her coming slowly and greeted her with a smile.

"Mother, I was about to look for you, why did you come here by yourself?"

"It's the same if you come to me as if I came to you, it's okay!" Zhao Li smiled and waved his hand: "I went to the jade shop just now, but what did I choose?" ”

"Well, I picked a hosta."

Jin Yun raised his hand and touched the hosta.

Zhao Li glanced at it and bowed his head with a smile.

"Not bad, good-looking, very good for your temperament. But I went all over the place, why don't you pick a few more? ”

"I don't like this kind of thing, and it's a waste of money to buy it."

During the conversation between the two, Jin Yun had already helped Zhao Li and walked into her room.

The main house is right next door to Jinyun's room.

Xiao Cui saw all this in her eyes.

She turned around and returned to Zhao Xinghui, and said, "Miss, Madam is here......"

Before Xiaocui could finish speaking, Zhao Xinghui hurriedly lay down, pretending to be weak.

Xiao Cui frowned and continued, "Madam, she ...... She went to Miss Jinyun's room. ”

"What?" Zhao Xinghui sat up in shock: "My mother came to the East Courtyard, didn't she come to see me?" ”

Although Xiaocui didn't want to admit it, it was true.

She bowed her head slightly, and before she could speak, she was kicked in the abdomen by Zhao Xinghui.

"Little, what are you nodding? Do you think that I have fallen out of favor and want to serve that slut? ”

"No, the slave didn't mean that."

Xiao Cui was kicked by this kick and fell to the ground.

Seeing that Zhao Xinghui had misunderstood, she quickly knelt down and shook her head.

Zhao Xinghui snorted coldly and turned his head to look in the direction of the door.

"You go over and listen and see what they're talking about?"

"Miss, this ...... Isn't that okay? ”

"Why, before you passed, your heart was already towards her?"

Zhao Xinghui gritted his teeth and looked at Xiao Cui with a gloomy face.

Xiao Cui was frightened and quickly stood up.

"Slave and maid, go now!"

……

The door to the next room, closed.

Jinyun was inside the door and posted a talisman to prevent eavesdropping.

Zhao Li came to the wooden table and sat down, and Xiao Tao poured her a cup of tea.

Jin Yun came to the opposite of her, and as soon as she sat down, she heard her ask, "Little Liu, did you go to the jade shop today, did you find anything?" ”

"The jewelry in the jade shop is fine. Only the jade bracelet that the fifth brother gave you, there is a problem, I suspect that the people in the house are doing it. ”

Jin Yun looked at Zhao Li and did not say directly that this matter was related to Zhao Xinghui.

She had been hesitating just now whether to tell Zhao Li about it.

After all, Zhao Xinghui was single-handedly pulled by her, if she knew that it was Zhao Xinghui who wanted to harm her, she would be so cold.

But if she didn't tell her, she was defenseless against Zhao Xinghui.

If Zhao Xinghui did it to her again, she couldn't prevent it at all.

So she planned to see Zhao Li's reaction before making a plan.

"The people of the house? You want to talk about the fifth! Zhao Li shook his head: "Impossible!" I watched the fifth child grow up, and I know his character best. Although his speech is a little ugly, he is not a bad person, and he will never do such a thing. ”

"I also believe that it is not the fifth brother, but this person must be very familiar with the fifth brother. And the two of them, most of them, went to the jade shop together and chose this jade bracelet for you. ”

Jin Yun lowered his eyes and looked at the jade bracelet on Zhao Li's wrist.

Hearing this, Zhao Li thought about it for a while.

She suddenly remembered that a few days before her birthday, Lao Wu stayed with Hui'er every day.

Thinking of this, she shook her head.

Although Hui'er is not her biological daughter, she was brought up by her.

In her heart, her status is not lower than that of Lao Wu.

She didn't doubt Lao Wu, and naturally she wouldn't doubt Hui'er.

"Actually, it doesn't have to be the people in the house. Maybe...... Maybe there were other people who deliberately guided them to buy this jade bracelet with only problems, right? ”

"Hmm!"

Jinyun nodded, not refuting her words.

Looking at Zhao Li's expression, she knew that she must have thought of something, but she just didn't want to admit it.

What should be said, she has already said.

Zhao Li trusts Zhao Xinghui too much, I'm afraid that even if Zhao Xinghui stands in front of her now and admits this matter in person, she won't believe it.

Trust needs to be little by little, slowly disintegrating.

Anyway, Zhao Li's life is not in danger for the time being, so let's take my time!

Xiao Cui lay at the door, unable to hear even a sound.

Just as she was wondering, a man walked slowly this way.

"Xiao Cui, what are you doing lying here?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Cui was frightened.

She turned to the visitor and fled quickly back to the main house.
