Except Aunt Liu, all the aunts on the mountain were in the yard. Several maids went to bring three tables of the Eight Immortals, and the servant women put the meat and vegetables on the table.
Aunt Feng stood aside and watched the maids handing out bowls and chopsticks. When she turned around, she saw Aunt Zhao walking towards her.
"Aunt Feng." Aunt Zhao called.
"Aunt Zhao." Aunt Feng said with a smile.
Aunt Zhao stood next to her and lowered her voice: "Are you from the mountains or from the mountains?"
"At the bottom of the mountain, the road is very dark."
"Tell me, why didn't you see Bian Erlang and the others coming with you?"
"Huh?" Aunt Feng said, "It sounds like they are all going to the mountains."
"That's right. If Erlang were here, this kind of thing wouldn't happen in the yard."
"Something happened in the yard?" Aunt Feng was curious, "What happened?"
Aunt Zhao took a step closer, leaned next to Aunt Feng's ear, and whispered a few words in a low voice.
Aunt Feng was stunned: "There is still such a thing, so how is Lianping doing now?"
"Why do you care about her," Aunt Zhao said with unabashed contempt, "She is just a bully, a slutty little maid, it would be best if she died."
Aunt Feng smiled and did not answer.
"Hey, look at how quick-tongued I am," Aunt Zhao covered her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "Aunt Feng, I must have treated you as one of my own in my heart to say this to you. I can't even control my mouth.
.”
"I know." Aunt Feng smiled.
"But this matter is still quite troublesome now. Lianping and Suxiang insist that it was done by someone in your backyard."
"Did the people in our backyard do it?" Aunt Feng said, "How is this possible?"
"That's what they said, and they said it was a little girl." Aunt Zhao stretched out her hand and gestured, "It's just that tall, and they said the girl was wearing rags, and they beat them like that with a whip."
Aunt Feng couldn't help but laugh again: "Is this a joke?"
"They will definitely ask about this matter later, so I will say hello to you in advance." Aunt Zhao said.
Aunt Feng took her attitude seriously this time and lowered her voice: "Well, thank you, Auntie."
Caiming helped Mrs. Bian come out of the door.
Mrs. Bian glanced at him and said, "Where is Erlang?"
"We haven't come back yet," Aunt Zhao walked over and said with a smile on her face, "Aunt Feng and the others came down from the mountain. The road was not easy to walk at night, and they were still carrying burdens. They were very tired."
Mrs. Bian nodded and looked at the three tables over there. Although it was the doorway of the maid's room and the back room of the maid's room, this courtyard was also Bian Yuanfeng's courtyard.
"How come you just put it here as a banquet? What do you mean?" Mrs. Bian said angrily.
The maids were all shocked.
The aunts who had already started eating also woke up with a start.
"It's just a maid who was beaten. Do you care so much?" Caiming followed closely, "People who don't know would think you are here to keep vigil for your seriously ill parents."
Aunt Shen put down the chopsticks in her hand, stood up and muttered: "I'll tell you to clean it up right now."
"Okay, no need to bother," Mrs. Bian frowned and said with disgust, "Since we are all hanging out in the mountains, there is no need to talk about rules and manners. Anyway, you are also uncultured rough people kidnapped from the countryside, and these maids are even more so.
If you haven't been taught well, there are no rules if you don't have rules. Eat quickly and clean up early."
"Hmm..." Aunt Shen responded weakly.
The maids all lowered their heads and did not dare to raise them.
Mrs. Bian looked away, walked towards Aunt Feng, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. The road down the mountain is particularly difficult, isn't it?"
Aunt Feng smiled: "It's really hard to walk, we almost got lost."
"But you came just in time. I just have something I want to ask you."
After Mrs. Bian finished speaking, she looked at Caiming next to her.
Caiming said: "Liping was attacked here just now. She and Suxiang both said that the attacker was a little girl, who should be the child slave in your backyard."
"The child slave in our backyard?" Aunt Feng said, "Madam, this is unbelievable at first sight."
"I thought so too, but they insisted that they were from your backyard." Mrs. Bian said.
"To be honest, Madam," Aunt Feng frowned, "It's not that I want to say anything to Lian Ping, but after this happened, I have to say something. Lian Ping's temper is really a bit violent, and every time he goes to our back mountain The girl in the backyard was so frightened when she saw her that she couldn't even walk with her weak legs, let alone attack her. Furthermore, if the girl attacked her, what would she use to attack her? Our tallest The girls are only about the same height as Reping, and Suxiang is here, how can we defeat them?"
"And madam," Caiming also said at this time, "the bridge over there is broken."
Mrs. Bian nodded and said, "Call Suxiang out."
"Yes." Caiming turned around and shouted, "Suxiang, come out!"
Suxiang heard it in the room, let go of Lianping, asked Xiaoshu to help support him, and responded: "Here he comes!"
Bian Yuanxue looked at her curiously and said to Li Lan next to her: "Let's go and have a look too."
"Aunt Feng is here," Caiming said, "check with her to see if there is such a girl."
"Yeah." Suxiang nodded and looked at Aunt Feng, "This girl is very small, she's really thin, and she has a strange whip in her hand. When Lianping went over to beat her, she suddenly appeared behind a small box. She took out the whip and swung it at Liping. Liping was unprepared and dropped his hand. He couldn't resist after that, and that's why he was beaten like that by her."
"Small box?" Yu Ma said.
"Yes, she was holding a box. I thought that there should be a hole in the back of the box, that's why she took it out so quickly."
Yu Ma was stunned. Aunt Feng turned her head and looked at her. They both read a name in each other's eyes.
"What?" Mrs. Bian looked at them, "Did you think of something?"
Mother Yu shook her head invisibly and looked at Aunt Feng closely.
Aunt Feng calmed down and looked at Mrs. Bian: "No, I was just thinking that there seems to be no lost girl in our backyard. Isn't the bridge over there broken?"
The tall maid standing not far from them turned pale as she thought of Ah Li.
She bit her lip and wanted to speak, but when Aunt Feng said this, she endured it.
"Is it possible that they came here before the bridge was broken?" Suxiang asked unwillingly.
"As I said just now," Aunt Feng said, "We don't seem to have a lost girl. The bridge has been broken. How can she come back?"
"It's impossible," Su Xiang was annoyed, "what I saw with my own eyes was a girl."
The tall maid couldn't bear it anymore, but couldn't hold it back anymore and shouted: "Madam, I know who it is!"
Everyone looked at her. It was the first time that the tall servant girl was being looked at by so many people, and she was extremely nervous.
