Lu Kui helped me back to the courtyard. My mother, who was standing at the door, greeted me with a smile. "Miss, you've come back early today."

I smiled and nodded as I continued to walk through the door.

Lan Zhi came out of the room and greeted him with a shy smile. "Miss, you're back!"

Although his actions were a bit restrained, he was a very polite and respectful person.

I didn't expect Lan Li to be such a swift and decisive person! However, this matter had just been settled yesterday, and he had already started on it today.

I don't know if she hinted or told them.

I looked carefully at Lan Zhi. She was slightly taller than me, but not as tall as Lan Li. His face was round and smooth, and his eyes were not small. When he smiled, they became curved. There was a deep dimple on the side of his cheek, making him look exceptionally pleasing to the eyes.

It was not as beautiful as Lan Lan's playfulness, nor as tranquil as the Green Bandits. However, it had its own beauties.

"How old are you?" I smiled and let her beat on the curtain for me, but in my heart, I carefully observed the attitude of this newly ascended maidservant.

With a smile, Lan Zhi stepped out of the doorway and answered with a smile, "This servant is fourteen this year." Then, without waiting for my reply, he said lightly and quickly, "Miss, please come in. The old lady's mother's second wife, Sister Gong, has come. I've brought her into the house and she is currently waiting for you."

I knew in my heart that this girl who was honest and honest in Lan Ling's words was probably a smart one again.

Judging from her cautious appearance, she must be the second Green-Buster!

I muttered in my heart. I didn't know if Lan Ling saw through the maid's intelligence but she couldn't say it directly. Or did she leave me with a surprise?

Lan Ling, this maid, had become more and more mysterious these days!

I wonder if she's found out what I want to know?

I smiled bitterly. It's true. When it comes to books, people don't hate it when it's time, but when it's time, they don't know it!

Entering the room, he saw Second Wife Gong sitting on her feet with her head down. She had a stooped body and was no longer as energetic as before.

My heart ached. To his mother, he was just a granddaughter. Even if he was sad, it was limited! From the way she fawned in her grandmother's room, it could be seen that she wasn't too moved by the girl's death. However, to Gong Er's wife, that sweet little person who knew how to laugh and cry, that brilliant smile and babble, was like the meat of her heart. Even though more than a month had passed since the incident, it was still extremely painful for her.

Some things, some people, even after so long, still haunt the mind and never leave!

I felt a cold liquid slide down the corner of my eye and pulled a handkerchief from my armpit to wipe it off.

I wonder if the child that has moved in my belly has already been born into a good family?

The two of them followed me into the room. I saw Gong Er's wife sitting on her feet, looking lonely. It was as if she didn't hear the transmission of Lan Zhi when she was at the door.

Outside, the setting sun shone through the window and onto her head. She was as quiet as a statue.

"Sister Gong!" I stood at the round table ten paces away from her and watched her silently. The two maidservants dared not go past me, so they stood beside me and called out to her in a low voice.

Gong Er's wife was still staring at the foot of the brick bed as if she hadn't heard someone calling her.

"Sister Gong!" The green bandit called out in a loud voice.

On the other side, Gong Er's wife seemed to be frightened, jumping up from her feet.

She turned around, hurriedly wiped her face with her sleeve, and with a deep nasal voice, she squatted down to pay her respects: "Miss, this servant is being rude!"

I looked at Green Beard with a bit of complaint. Then, a guilty and wronged expression appeared on Green Beard's face.

Had a similar experience made him particularly tolerant? Every time I saw Gong Er's wife in a daze, I would think back to the time when I had just lost my child and was reborn into this world. Every day, I would feel a piercing pain in my heart, but I would not dare to speak to anyone.

The green bandits were only doing things according to the rules! What was wrong?

Gong's second wife saw me glare at Lu Kuo, and the expression on her face became increasingly uneasy. The usual calm and forceful look on his face was completely gone. He only stood there stiffly with his two hands clenched into fists, hanging by his side.

"I'm fine!" "I'm fine!" I waved to Gong's second daughter-in-law, turned around smiling and told Lu Kuo, "Let's go behind the screen and change clothes!"

"Yes." The green bandit meekly agreed and followed me to the back of the screen.

I took out the moon-white jacket and the dark blue brocade horse mask dress from the black paint of the crew-cut ivory board and changed them. I held onto Lu Ke's hand and said in a low voice, "I just now."

Before I could finish my sentence, Lu Kangfu spoke up, "Miss, it is your servant's fortune to be able to sympathize with your servant." His smile was sincere, and his gaze was calm.

I smiled. Green Bastard was naturally intelligent. He didn't want to be such a transparent person.

After helping her up, the two of us went out of the screen one after the other, and Green Cock helped me sit on the kang.

Gong Er's wife stood by the side with her head bowed, with a tight smile on her face.

I pointed to the small Wugou next to the brick bed. "Elder sister, please sit!"

Gong Er's wife responded with hesitation. Her previous straightforward smile was gone.

I could not help sighing when I saw her sullen expression and the unconcealable sadness at the corners of her eyes.

Seeing her like this, I felt a little sad for her and angry at her for not fighting!

The blood rushed to his head and he blurted out the words.

"How can you be like this? How would your husband feel if he saw it all the time? I think you can blame him for not being able to raise your girl well. At this moment, you only care about your heart is sad, regardless of the face to show him. If one day you discover that your husband has been raised outside the family, who will you rely on in the future? If you want me to say, you might as well take advantage of his guilt towards you and raise another child. Not to mention your husband, even your mother-in-law wouldn't dare to look down on you! "

Suddenly, the whole room became so quiet that I could hear a pin drop. Not only did my daughter-in-law look up at me in surprise, even the other Greenwood, who was holding an iron to iron my clothes, was staring at me in shock.

This is bad!

How could I just blurt out the words in my heart so carelessly?

I forgot that I should be looking at things from the point of view of an eleven-year-old girl! Even if I was looking at things from a woman's point of view, I shouldn't have said those words so clearly and laid myself out in front of everyone's eyes.

I couldn't help but smile wryly. This was really lifting a rock to smash my own foot!

Seeing the two of them staring at me, I couldn't help but feel embarrassed. I touched the texture on my sleeve and smiled as I helped myself out. "I heard what mother said."

When the two of them heard my explanation, they were somewhat at ease. Gong Er's wife revealed a thoughtful expression, but Lu Ke smiled and replied, "These bitches love to talk!"

Lan Zhi brought in a big box of red lacquered food and said with a smile, "Miss, Sister Lan Li has prepared a round and silver ear lotus seed soup for you!"

Seeing the strange atmosphere in the room, Lan Zhi was stunned. She opened her mouth to say something, but in the next moment, a calm smile appeared on her face. "Miss, do you want to use a bowl now or later?"

"Give us a bowl!" I pointed at Gong Er and me.

Lan Zhi agreed with a smile. She used a small bowl with pink and white words to serve a bowl into my hands. Then, she used a small bowl made of sweet and white porcelain to serve a bowl to Gong Er's wife.

Gong Er's wife blushed as she thanked him repeatedly.

I set the spoon on the kang table and slowly stirred it with the spoon. The steam rose and dispersed in front of my eyes, obscuring the face of my second wife.

"Elder sister, why have you come today?" I asked, smiling.

A few days ago, Gong's second wife went back to my room to work as a servant, but she was often in a daze. When she was helping me with the quilting, she sewed her clothes into the quilts. I really couldn't stand it any longer and said that I was busy with the marriage of Hong Yu and didn't have time to make needlework, so I sent her home.

"Tomorrow is the birthday of the Old Ancestor, I have made some things. The material is not as expensive as the old ancestor's clothes, but my heart. If it wasn't for the Old Ancestor sending me to the Miss's room, my girl would have been here. I can't eat that much. Good stuff, and more. When he was sick. What a good husband, please. Old Ancestor. Exactly. Appreciating others, that was true. My dignity! "

Gong Er's wife choked with sobs as she said these words. In the end, her tears fell like rain. She didn't want to be rude, so she kept wiping the tears off her face with her sleeve. It was as if she couldn't wipe them all away no matter how hard she tried. Her face was dripping with tears.

I took the bundle and looked at it. Two foreheads, one with a white orchid embroidered on it, the other with a bee on it, and the other with Tirian, and the water rippling on the brocade. Two pairs of stockings, one embroidered with water and water, the other with the same amount of brocade, neatly arranged in a circle, with a small white plum on a flying needle. There were two bags. One had the word 'birthday' embroidered on it, while the other had Uncle Ma's birthday embroidered on it. Although they are small things, they take a lot of time and effort.

I touched the material carefully, feeling sad, this is the material I reward the girl to make Xia Chang.

I smiled as I accepted it and praised, "Elder sister, if you still say that your cooking is crude, then what kind of work did I do? How could my sister not let Mama Gong take it to my grandmother's house? so that I can personally kowtow to my grandmother? "

When Gong Er's wife heard my words, her face darkened. After a long time of cowardice, she said, "My body is not clean. I do not dare to wash away the joy of the Old Ancestor."

Although the girl was her biological daughter, she had died young in the end, so her parents didn't need to wear filial piety. Moreover, Grandmother was a very kind person. In the past, Grandmother's brocade sister in the house, now that the father of the head storekeeper's wife had died, she said that they had sold her into the house, and she had lost her mother. Grandmother not only gave her 20 taels of silver, but also advised her to go back to take a look. The excuse Gong Er Wife came up with was too outrageous.

There was another silence, and the atmosphere was awkward. I took a spoonful and tasted it.

However, it didn't take long for it to turn cold.

I suddenly saw Green Bull wink at me.

Could there be something more to this?

"Miss, sister Lan Li is back!" Lan Zhi gently lifted the curtain on the door and answered.
