Chapter 11: The Maiden is Faithful
On a snowy night, only a cold full moon hung in the sky, and a tall figure suddenly appeared on the eaves of the Rongguo Mansion, and from his direction, he could just see Huo Jiuge in the ancestral hall.
She is lighting the candles in the hall, the candle flame reflects half of the side of her face, and her temperament is like a clear snow and cold moon, not stained with dust.
The wind and snow outside gradually stopped, but at this moment, something suddenly came from the window, and in the silent night, the sound was infinitely amplified, and it sounded creepy.
If this was someone else, he would have begged for the blessing of the ancestors and ancestors, but Huo Jiuge walked to the source of the sound and pushed the window open without thinking.
The moonlight shone through the window, pulling her shadow and making her body thinner.
There's nothing out there.
Just as she was about to close the window, she turned her head and caught a glimpse of a figure in the corridor, about to disappear around the corner, and the clothes on her body should be the maid of the house.
It seems that the Qin clan is ready to make a move, looking at the back of the other party leaving, Huo Jiu Ge showed a contemptuous smile, if he wants to use a way to bring himself down, I'm afraid it's too childish.
Since she wants to play, then I can play with her!
Huo Jiuge closed the window, and the sound of wind and snow outside immediately became much quieter.
She walked to the shrine to continue cleaning the tablet of her ancestors, and when it was her father's turn to be at the tablet, the movement of her hand paused.
Why is there a hairpin here that is good and good? Obviously you didn't have it just now, huh?
As a modern person, Huo Jiuge naturally doesn't believe in the ancient feudal monster power and chaos of the gods, and the sudden appearance of this thing must have been deliberately placed here.
She took the hairpin off and watched it carefully.
The hairpin is made of wood, from shallow to deep, the craftsman of the carving is also ingenious, the lotus flower is exactly the same as the blood lotus in his hand, the lotus symbolizes the cycle of life and death in Buddhism, is this a coincidence or someone deliberately?
This hairpin is cold and warm to the touch, obviously a high-quality sandalwood spice, such a lotus hairpin, I'm afraid that the value is also above the gold, who is so generous?
Huo Jiuge thought about it carefully, if this hairpin was really placed here, then that person must still be hiding in this ancestral hall now, just as she was about to search, a familiar voice came from outside the door.
It was the voices of Dongmei and Qiu Cicada, they were the personal maids of the original owner, accompanying her from the Rongguo Mansion to Jinling's grandfather's house, and finally returned here.
It is estimated that the two of them thought about her being punished in this ancestral hall, and they couldn't rest assured, so they had the courage to come here to see how she was.
As soon as Huo Jiuge opened the door, the young Dongmei threw herself into her arms, hugged her and cried, "Miss......"
Although the older Qiu Cicada didn't hug her and cry like Dongmei, her eyes were also red, and she was worried about her at first glance.
They heard from the grandmother in the house that the person that the third prince really liked was Miss Fushangbiao, so he did not hesitate to divorce his own young lady and marry her.
Since the death of General Huo and his wife, this home has become the palm of the second room of the Huo family, and now his own young lady has been divorced again, I am afraid that the future will be even more sad.
Although they feel worthless for the young lady, what can they do as maids? The only thing you can do is to sneak something to visit the young lady when she is punished.
Qiu Chan put the burden on Huo Jiu Singer, and then said, "Miss, these are all things that you are used to, and the slaves and maids have brought them all over." ”
"After the young lady lifts the grounding, we will go back to Jinling together, and never go back to this place again!"
Dongmei also echoed her words: "Yes, let's go back to Jinling together and find Old Madam Shen to make decisions for us." ”
The old lady Shen in her mouth is the grandmother of the original owner, and now she is almost seventy years old, and she loves the granddaughter of the original owner on weekdays.
But Huo Jiuge would not do this, although the Shen family has some prestige and reputation in Jinling, there is still a gap compared to the Huo family, so she will not let the Shen family seek justice for herself.
What she wants is for the entire Rongguo Mansion to return to her hands, and those who hurt the original owner and parents will have to pay a hundredfold price!
As soon as he thought of what he had done to the original owner, Huo Jiuge couldn't control the emotions in his heart, and his eyes became extremely cold.
"Miss, miss?" Dongmei and Qiucian had never seen Huo Jiuge's appearance before, and they thought that she had begun to become abnormal after experiencing so many blows.
Their calls brought Huo Jiuge back to reality.
Seeing that their young lady returned to normal, Dongmei and Qiu Cicada breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and then said in unison: "Don't worry, Miss, no matter what happens, we will be on your side." ”
Huo Jiuge looked at the girls in front of him, one was only sixteen years old, and the other had just turned fourteen, because of the cowardly nature of the original owner, they were also inferior in the mansion and were suppressed everywhere.
These subordinates in the mansion are all people who see the wind and steer the rudder, seeing that the original owner is not favored, plus the Qin family secretly made her stumble, everyone snatched their heads and went to Wangshu Yuan on an errand, and no one was willing to serve Huo Jiuge.
Only these two girls, no matter where they are, always follow her.
Thinking that there were such loyal people around the original owner, Huo Jiuge's heart was somewhat relieved, at least she didn't have to worry that the people around her would betray her.
"The Rongguo Mansion is my home, and I won't go anywhere." Huo Jiuge said to them.
"But the second lady ......" Dongmei wanted to say that the Qin family's small-bellied chicken intestines would definitely embarrass them, but before she finished speaking, she was stopped by the autumn cicada on the side.
Qiu Cicada was older, and she saw that Huo Jiu Ge was different from before.
The previous Huo Jiuge was like a wild cat, he didn't dare to see people, he would only stay in the corner; But now you look at the firmness in her eyes, she is obviously a beast, showing her minions.
"Does Miss already have any plans?" Qiu Cicada believes that after so many things, the beast will not be at the mercy of others, and now it is time to fight back.
Huo Jiuge didn't tell her about her plans, she just asked them to find a set of clothes for men to wear first.
Now that the plague is raging in the capital, as a doctor, she must save Li Min and the fire and water, but for the time being, she can't reveal her identity, so she can only disguise herself and pretend to be a man to blend in with the crowd.
As for the Qin family, it will be a long time coming, and after she cultivates her power here, she will find the person who killed the original owner's parents behind her back, and then uproot them.
Let them be arrogant for a while during this time, and sooner or later they will pay a terrible price for what they have done.
