Quietly he said to Jiang Nuan, "I'll go see Vice General Liu off. You can sleep a little longer."
Jiang Nuan closed her eyes and nodded. She really needed to sleep for a while.
Outside the study room, Xiaochan turned over and woke up, and saw Shuang Lian sitting with her face inward.
Busy stood up and said in a low voice: "Why did I sleep so well this time? It's already dawn. Have you gotten up yet?"
Shuang Lian didn't move or speak.
Xiaochan thought she was angry at him for sleeping so hard, and she must have been taking care of her father-in-law at night.
Feeling very sorry, I hurriedly dressed up and opened the curtain inside.
Who would have thought that there would be no one inside?
Xiaochan couldn't help but wonder: "When did the father-in-law leave?"
Shuang Lian still ignored her.
Xiaochan saw that Huo Tian was no longer here, so she walked over and asked Shuang Lian, a good sister on her left, and another good sister: "It's true that I shouldn't have slept so hard and let you work hard alone.
Good sister, please forgive me for this! Just treat me like a pig.
Later, I will make a pair of shoes for you properly, more elaborate than the ones I made for myself during the Chinese New Year, okay?"
Shuang Lian ignored her, so Xiao Chan naturally wanted to look at her face.
This sight shocked me.
Both eyes were red and swollen, obviously after crying.
His lips were bitten, and the clothes in front of him were torn.
"This..." Xiaochan was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe. She didn't even dare to ask Shuang Lian what happened.
At this time, Shuang Lian seemed to have suddenly woken up. He raised his sleeves and wiped his eyes, and said in a choked voice: "Take care of this place quickly, let's go back."
"Hey! Sister, don't move, I'll do it." Xiaochan quickly agreed.
Shuang Lian didn't say anything, but still stood up slowly and started to clean up the house.
It's just that he looked so lost and lost his usual energy of intelligence.
Xiaochan saw this and didn't know what to do.
She vaguely sensed something, but couldn't be sure.
After cleaning up the study, she separated from Shuang Lian and watched her go to her residence.
Xiaochan was then sent to the kitchen to fetch face wash water, and saw a small pot of tea eggs simmering on the stove, smelling strangely fragrant.
Sister-in-law Zhu, the helper in the fire house, said: "I cooked this myself, and it tastes pretty good. I'll catch some for you to try."
"Give me two!" Xiaochan said with a smile, "I'll give them to Sister Shuanglian."
When Sister-in-law Zhu heard that she wanted to give Shuang Lian a favor, she quickly scooped up four or five fish and gave her a plate of freshly steamed glutinous rice cakes.
I also picked two delicate side dishes and two bowls of rouge rice porridge, and put them all in a food box.
Ask Xiaochan to take it back and eat it with Shuang Lian.
Xiaochan took the food box to look for Shuang Lian, and knocked on the door, but there was no answer.
I pushed it, but it couldn't move. It must be tied from the inside.
"Sister Shuanglian, I brought you breakfast. You should have a bite." Xiaochan said outside the door.
There was no movement inside the shell, so Xiaochan pierced the window paper and looked inside.
I saw Shuang Lian standing on a chair, with a rope hanging from the beam, and she was stretching her head into the rope noose.
Xiaochan immediately threw away the food box and shouted: "It's amazing, someone died!"
While running out of the yard.
By this time, the servants in the mansion had all gotten up early, and many of them were sweeping the yard.
Hearing Xiaochan shouting, everyone rushed over.
Xiaochan was frightened and panting. She pointed at Shuanglian's house and said, "Quickly...go in and save people!"
Everyone hurried over, but the door was locked inside, so they had to work together to open it.
At this time, Shuang Lian had kicked off the chair and was hanging leisurely on the beam.
Everyone hurriedly rescued her, patting her on the back and saying goodbye.
It took a long time to rescue her.
At this time, Jiang Nuan had just gotten up, and Sang's mother came over in a hurry.
Xiang Jiang Nuan said: "Girl, I don't know what's wrong with those pity eyes. They are looking for death and survival. You must be saved in time, otherwise you will hang yourself."
Jiang Nuan was very surprised when she heard this, and said: "It's so good, why is she seeking death? Could it be that someone made her suffer?"
At this time Wan's mother also came, with a gloomy face, and said: "Madam, let's call Shuang Lian over and ask her! If she makes such a fuss, the people in the house will say anything.
I asked her alone just now, but this girl came into Cao's camp as Xu Shu - she didn't say a word."
Shuang Lian spent the night in the study last night, and this morning he woke up looking for life and death.
Looking at her condition and thinking about what happened last night, many people speculated that Huo Tian had sex after drinking and how she got hooked.
Even if Huo Tian is usually upright, who can guarantee that he will not deceive the darkroom?
Since we are human beings, we have seven emotions and six desires.
What's more, he has a high position of power, and men are always impulsive.
Jiang Nuan then asked Wan's mother to call Shuang Lian and question her.
After a while, Shuang Lian was brought here, and Jiang Nuan saw that she looked lost and had a terrible red mark on her neck.
I couldn't help but be surprised. If someone died, someone would definitely make a fuss about it.
Huo Tian's reputation and status are extremely high, but the saying that it's hard to live in a high place is not a lie.
Who knows how many pairs of eyes are watching behind the scenes. Once something happens, someone will definitely use this as a handle.
If nothing else, just spreading some rumors is enough to annoy people.
Shuang Lian came in and knelt on the ground without saying anything. Jiang Nuan asked her, "What's wrong with you? Why did you seek suicide?"
But Shuang Lian remained silent. No matter how Jiang Nuan asked, she refused to say a word except silently weeping.
"Shuang Lian, if you are like this, there is no way we can keep you here." Wan's mother said, "As a servant, the first thing you need to do is to abide by the rules.
When the master asks a question, why don’t you just answer it if you don’t want to? Aren’t you doing this to make Madam angry?”
But no matter what Wan's mother said, Shuang Lian remained silent.
Huo Tian also came back at this time, and Jiang Nuan pulled Ruan Ruan aside and told him about Shuang Lian's seeking death.
Then he asked him: "Do you know what happened? She didn't say anything no matter how we asked her. Some people suspected that you had done something to her."
"Then can you trust me?" Huo Tian asked.
"What do I believe? Of course I believe you." Jiang Nuan said, "If you really did something to her, you would definitely tell me. There is no need to hide it, because I said I can't do anything to you."
Huo Tian then briefly talked about what happened last night, and then said: "Originally, I wanted to tell you, so I sent her away early. But when I got up in the morning, you hadn't woken up yet, so I thought
I'll tell you after I send someone back. I didn't expect that it has already become such a commotion."
"I didn't expect that she would have such thoughts about you," Jiang Nuan shook his head and said, "But she is different from ordinary servants. If it were anyone else, she would just give her a few taels of silver.
After all, she is Uncle Fu's granddaughter. If she is too heartless, I'm afraid it won't be justified. Besides, if it spreads, it will damage your reputation, sir."
