If you don't have any firewood, why don't you ask your mother? Even if she doesn't care, you should come and get it from me!" Walking around in the middle of the night like this, what sort of manners did he have? Is this how you usually serve your concubines? It's the time for servants, and all of you are unworthy. I think if you guys continue like this, why don't you ask your old man's mother to bring you guys home. It's enough to go shopping, then come back — you should start from being a crude little girl and properly learn the rules! Now that Lady Lan Zhi is in your room, you can only look for her whenever you need her. "If I ever see such a mess in your yard again, I won't be able to fool it this time!

Hearing these words, the young maid, Xiang'er, fell to the ground. She didn't even have the strength to raise her head. She sobbed mournfully for a long time, and walked out of the shooting place. Her weeping could still be heard. I cast a sidelong glance at Lan Lan, who was walking beside me. Under the moonlight, her skin was extremely smooth and clean. Her black complexion became even more prominent, and there was a thick sense of worry between her brows. She tightly pursed her lips and straightened her back, looking very nervous.

Although she was usually serious, she was never a strict and strict person. It was the first time I had ever heard her say anything like that. The main reason for pursuing the matter was just so that Lan Zhi would be able to enter Lady Chen's courtyard and build up her influence. She was just afraid that she wouldn't be able to suppress them.

Regardless of the time when she was in danger, or the moment when she was in the limelight, Lan Lin had always maintained the heart of a virgin. He had never been humble because of his low position, nor had he ever been arrogant because he was in charge of the inner chamber. While she did not disappoint me, she did her best to take care of these sisters. Compared to the slightly better green bandits, she was even more acknowledged by everyone in the house.

He turned the corner and walked into his grandmother's room, but before he could step into her room, Hong Yu was already standing in front of the Moon Cave Sect. The jagged plum trees planted on the pink-white wall cast a heavy shadow in the moonlight. Red Jade was dressed in a pink-white chiffon dress, and was exceptionally beautiful under the moonlight. When she saw me coming, she hurriedly took two steps forward and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Miss! When the old lady heard that you had come, she was afraid that you might slip in the middle of the night and told me to come pick you up. "

Picking me up was a fake, waiting for someone else to pick me up was the real deal.

I smiled as I nodded towards her before following her into the courtyard. "Big sister and I can be considered old acquaintances. Big sister can just say it directly. I don't want to delay you and me by beating around the bush."

Hong Yu smiled in embarrassment. She didn't bring me to Grandmother's room, but to the second room in the back room.

There was an oil lamp burning in the room, and through the window paper two dark figures were visible. One of them was fat, obviously a middle-aged mother, while the other one was slim, a young woman. There was only her mother's slightly hoarse voice in the room, comforting the crying woman beside her in a low voice.

"Mother Du, I brought Miss here!"

Hong Yu lightly knocked on the door. Mother Du and the woman at the side hurriedly got up and went to the door.

"Miss."

A small cry came from inside the house. It was Green Buccaneer.

A heavy, floating heart settled down. Lan Li and I, who were standing behind me, looked at each other. We both saw a sense of gratification and joy in each other's eyes. Lan Lingyun went up to open the door, but was stopped by Hong Yu.

Red Jade had an awkward expression on her face.

"Miss, the old lady ordered for you to talk through the door."

"What kind of logic is this? What makes you think you can make the young miss speak like this while standing in the cold wind! " Although Lan Li's words were a bit displeased, she didn't rashly push open the door.

Hong Yu's voice revealed a pleading tone.

"The old lady was forced to do it." Hong Yu turned around and helped me up, "Young Miss came to take a look in the morning. Of the three maids that were locked up, only two were left. "Miss Lu Kui is very capable. If anything were to go wrong, it would not be good. The old lady is also thinking for Miss's sake."

Grandmother is suspecting that I secretly took the lives of two maids to frame her.

It seems that Grandmother really was determined to get out, or else she wouldn't stop me, for fear that her family would cause another incident that would cause her death and delay her plans.

I felt more at ease and secretly relieved.

"Since Grandmother has instructed me to do so, I will not enter anymore. "If I let the window inside open, I will have to see the Green Bandits with my own eyes, so that I can be at ease."

Hong Yu probably thought that I was determined to enter and her entire body was blocking the door tightly. Her manner of speaking and action was quite domineering. At this moment, I suddenly took a step back. I only said that I wanted to meet her, so she didn't say no in a very stiff manner. After being stunned for a moment, I called inside for Mother Du to open the window, making it easier for me to talk to the Green Bandits.

Although Mother Du was still working in my grandmother's room, she had long since come to an understanding with me. Previously, I was only worried about Hong Yu. Now that she has let go of my hand, I was naturally unhappy to see her try to please me. I hurriedly opened the window from the inside.

The bright light of the room fell on the green bandit, and against the light, I could not see her more. I took a few steps forward and stood at the window, looking at the exhausted Green Cock, my heart full of guilt. The words I had just spoken were stuck in his throat after receiving such heavy injuries. After a few rounds, I finally managed to swallow it down.

"Are you all right?"

Lu Kui nodded his head with a weak smile and said, "This servant won't worry. Mommy just brought a doctor to show me that I'm just tired and tired and have a cool breeze, so my body is a little weak. On the other hand, Ying'er and Wen Lian, I wonder how they are doing right now? "

So it turned out that she didn't know that the two maidservants that had been captured with her had long since lost their lives!

Mother Du rolled her eyes two times and saw through my dilemma. She walked up to support Green Queen and said: "Young lady can knock down anyone who comes across her just like that, and you still have the mind to meddle in other people's business! It wasn't that my old woman was being arrogant, but that the girl was usually a person who understood things. How could she not understand that even if there were thousands of people, she still had to be alive to enjoy that blessing! The most important thing for a lady right now is not to care about Ying'er, it's more important to raise her body well! "

I secretly let out a sigh of relief and agreed with Mother Du, "I see that this room can be considered neat and tidy. You can stay here for now! Right now, our courtyard is a mess, it's not convenient for you to go back and rest. " He turned to Mother Du: "I'll leave the green bandits to you. If anything is missing, you can just ask me for it! "

Lu Qu, with his kind nature, knew that things would not go well if he heard that I avoided talking about the two maidservants. He didn't pursue the topic and nodded at me with a sigh. Mother Du stood next to Green Queen and replied with a smile, "Miss, I've already memorized everything that you said. You can rest assured, Miss!"

Thinking of the sister in my hands, I feel relieved. As long as her grandson and daughter were in his hands, he wouldn't be afraid of her acting rashly.

After seeing the green bandit, the red jade led me all the way to my grandmother's main house. In front of me, she held a lamp in her hand. Other than "watch out for your feet", there was nothing else to say. Arriving at the door of the room, he personally opened the curtain for me and accompanied Lan Lingyun to the side room.

Grandmother was wearing a lilac jacket with a round collar. She was reading Buddhist scriptures on the brick bed. The silver hair on her head and the old face reflected in the light made the night seem very quiet.

Unknowingly, Grandmother had also aged quite a bit.

Seeing me walk in, Grandmother threw the book away and watched me take off my cloak. She asked, "What's the matter?" Is it snowing outside? "

I hung the green felt cloak on the rack at the entrance and casually replied, "There is no snow. It's just that the pure colors of the clothes are too few. I had no choice but to find this piece of clothing to wear for the time being."

Only then did Grandmother remember that, nominally, I was still at the time of my mother's funeral. Lightly glancing at me, she scoops up a few cups of tea and sneers at me, as if mocking me for being so superficial.

I sat down on a small stool in front of the brazier and held my frozen hand over the fire. It warmed up a lot. Seeing that my grandmother was looking at me with interest, I smiled in embarrassment and asked, "Where are the two maids?"

"Do you know how they died?"

Not only did Grandmother not answer my question, she instead stopped smiling and stared at me. "That poison isn't something an ordinary person can obtain, but it's used to poison a few girls to death?"

I muttered to myself. So she already knew that it wasn't me who poisoned her. Then why did she stop me from entering?

After the maids were locked up, I didn't even give them food. I just gave each of them a bowl of water." Furthermore, the two maidservants had been sleeping the entire time and had not even drunk a single drop of water. In less than two hours, the two maidservants had caused a ruckus, saying that they had a stomachache. They were crying and making a ruckus, and in a short while, they had already choked on their anger, unable to hold on for much longer. I know that you didn't poison him, but you might have accidentally brought him in.

This is to be honest with me.

Explain to me why you stopped me from coming in the door to see the Rookie.

He breathed in and out after his abdominal pain, which sounded so familiar. How could one or two of them die like this?

I smiled and nodded. "I understand what you mean." This is a good thing for both you and me. Just as Jiayi was frightened, the two maidservants by his side were gone, not to mention the fact that they used to be in my yard. Anyone who listens will suspect that I used them to silence them. I have always respected your methods of keeping the Green Bandits with you. Firstly, her safety is guaranteed, and secondly, as long as you intentionally restrict her, this matter will never be spread out. However, the two maids are still children of the family, and I was the one who picked them up myself. They can't just be buried as they please, even if it's their own family, they still need to have an explanation. "

More importantly, I would like to personally confirm the corpses of the two maidservants. If it happens to be as I expected, I have a rough idea of what's going on.

Grandmother nodded with a smile and shifted her legs on the brick bed, causing the golden foil on her skirt to rustle. She then said, "These are all your worries now! "This matter was arranged by Red Jade, you just need to ask her!"

I smiled and stood up to bow to grandmother, grandmother also smiled at me. For a moment the atmosphere in the room was warm, as if we had never disliked each other.

After bidding farewell to his grandmother, he led her out by the red jade and entered the third room of the gatehouse. The two maidservants were placed side by side on the floor. The mother sat on the kang chatting with the other maidservants while the atmosphere was noisy and joyous. She was not affected by the death in the slightest.

I couldn't help but frown.

Red Jade tugged at my sleeve and whispered, "Ever since the news of the old lady's departure spread, the room has been unable to suppress the pressure. It's fine with those maidservants, but this way, mother will be hard to deal with! "

Since Grandmother wanted to go out for cultivation, she naturally couldn't have a group of servants. Grandmother Yemeni Qing'er, I would never have let her take all these mothers she used. Besides, if grandmother was really willing to part with this house, how many quick-witted and useful servants would be unable to buy it? Since she couldn't bring all of them, her grandmother would naturally pick the ones that were more considerate and had higher positions. These lower class mothers and maidservants should naturally stay in the Yang Mansion. The older the maidservants, the more suitable they have to be. As for the younger maidservants, if possible, I intend to assign them to each courtyard. Only these mothers, their old owners had gone to the unknown, and after today they would not know where the next day would be. When people couldn't see the road in front of them, they tended to indulge themselves, and they became more and more free to do whatever they wanted.

Seeing that Red Jade and Lan Lan were following me inside, the mothers immediately stopped talking and got off the brick bed one by one like dumplings. They surrounded me and smiled obsequiously, "Miss, you've come! The servants had already changed the clothes of the two sisters. "See if there's anything else we can do, please do not hesitate to tell us!"

Give others a way out as long as you can, and leave yourself a way out. I didn't have any intention of making things difficult for these mothers. I smiled and nodded. Let me first take a look at them. If there's anything I need, I will naturally go and call for everyone. "

When their mothers heard this, they hurriedly curtsied and humbly said, "This was originally something that we, your servants, should do. How can it be considered 'troublesome'?" All of them respectfully stood behind the red jade while Lan Lingyun stepped forward and personally removed the white cloth covering the two maids' bodies.

Just as I expected, the two maidservants' eyes were bulging out as well, and the corners of their eyes were suffused with blood. They were unable to close their eyes at all.

His lips were purple and his face was pale.

I motioned Lan Li to pull down the white cloth, just in time to see the two maidservants' hands folded in front of their stomachs. Their fingernails were dark gray, and a tinge of blood could be seen in the crevices of their armor.

It was very similar to the Gu family and the Ma family.

I nodded towards Lan Lingyun. Lan Ling also looked at me with a heavy expression and slowly covered the cover with the cloth.

The two maidservants were both young, so they naturally did not prepare any items. Since things had already come to this, he could only let things stand. The funeral was the same as the Gu family, conducted according to the rules of a loyal servant who had sacrificed his life for his master. Lan Lingyun and a few of my mothers went to the outer court to look for my mother, who was accompanied by two maidservants. I sat next to her for a while.

When the white-haired man sent the black-haired man away, he felt most helpless. The separation of their flesh and blood was already painful to the core, not to mention that the two of them had been in such pain, and their death was so embarrassing. Wouldn't it be painful!? Red Jade and I, who were sitting next door and drinking tea, were saddened by the loud cry next door.

Suddenly, a surprised exclamation came from next door, followed by the sound of chaotic footsteps …
