Shu'er had been waiting for news in the yard, and because she was impatient, she had to ask her maid to inquire. She knew that Ningxiang would mention the substitute to Yunhe, but she didn't know if Yunhe would care. She recalled Ningxiang's appearance.
, it seems that there is something hidden from her. Could it be that Yun He really did something shameful, but Ningxiang didn't mention it to her just now. It can also be said that she didn't want to mention it to her at all.
In her opinion, Ningxiang kept giving in and seemed not as experienced as Yunhe, but Yunhe refused to give in and wanted to dominate the young master alone.
I don't know what they will say, but I have a vague feeling that things are not as simple as imagined.
About a quarter of an hour later, the maid came back with the news, but Shu'er was a little disappointed. She thought Yun He and Ning Xiang would have a falling out in the main courtyard, but the servants in the main courtyard said that they didn't even hear the voices in the room.
.
Shu'er was not only disappointed, but also a little confused. Ningxiang looked very angry just now, how could she talk to Yun He calmly?
"Is everything you said true?" Shu'er asked.
"It's true." The maid said.
"So nothing happened and Ningxiang came back?" Shu'er asked.
"The main reason is that they speak very quietly, so you can't hear clearly what they are saying." The maid said.
"It's really strange, why can't you hear what is being said? I was also in Ningxiang's room before, and I could clearly hear what was happening on the other side," Shu'er said.
"Did the servant lie to me?" the maid asked.
"Logically speaking, she shouldn't. There is no need for her to lie to you. Ningxiang should be back by now, right?" Shu'er asked.
"Yes, the girl has come back, but she felt uncomfortable as soon as she came back. After entering the house, she never came out again," the maid said.
"I want to go over and take a look, you stay." Shu'er said.
"yes."
After Shu'er heard what the maid said, she went to Ningxiang's yard.
The yard looked as desolate as when I passed it this morning. I thought someone would clean it, but I found the broom lying motionless aside.
"Ningxiang, sister Ningxiang, are you there?" Shuer called out cautiously.
Ningxiang slowly opened the door and said, "Are you here?"
"It's getting late, is there anyone cleaning this yard?" Shu'er asked.
"It turned out that I took the initiative to move here. They didn't have time to clean it," Ningxiang said.
"How long has this been going on? If someone had cleaned it, they wouldn't have waited until now. Ningxiang, tell me the truth. What is going on? Where is the maid in your room?" Shu'er asked.
"They have all gone to do other things. Come over and talk to me." Ningxiang said.
"What did you say to Yun He just now? Did she bully you?" Shu Er said.
"You're right anyway. I said she was just a stand-in, but she said so what. It turns out that she had known for a long time that she looked similar to her cousin. This is the reason why the young master was obsessed with her. She said that she
I didn't care, I just wanted to find my family smoothly. Seeing that she didn't care, I left the main courtyard. Even if I continue to tell her, I will only humiliate myself," Ningxiang said.
"Did she say something unpleasant?" Shuer asked.
"She just said that I didn't even have the capital to be a stand-in, but she was indeed right. I was afraid of quarreling with her if I stayed in the main courtyard, so I had to come back while I still had some sense." Ningxiang said.
"So she doesn't care about this at all. Finding her family is the most important thing. I think we still need to tell the second master about this matter and let the second master think for himself whether Yun He will betray him in order to find his family." Shu Er said.
.
"I can only do what you say. I'm just worried that the second master won't listen to us at all." Ningxiang said.
Shu'er felt that Ningxiang was too contradictory. One moment she felt that she should tell the second master, and the other moment she felt that she shouldn't say it out loud.
Ningxiang has too many worries. If she continues like this, they will miss this opportunity, so she must give it a try.
"Don't always have so many worries. How will you know if it doesn't work if you don't give it a try? Don't worry, I will know how to measure it. If the second master doesn't believe it, I will tell her that it is the two of us.
People's thoughts. Even if the second master doesn't believe in me, he will believe in you, right?" Shu'er said.
"I can only do as you say." Ningxiang said.
Of course, Shu'er is not a fool. How could she easily believe Ningxiang's words? She secretly observed in the next few days and found that the relationship between Yunhe and Ningxiang was indeed very different. Ever since Ningxiang and Yunhe met in the main courtyard
After that, he never took the initiative to look for Yun He. Even when the two met in the corridor, they only said hello briefly and looked like strangers.
What did Yun He say to Ning Xiang that day, and Ning Xiang suddenly became so cold towards Yun He.
There were not many slaves in Ningxiang's courtyard, and there were only two of the four maids who followed her closely. I heard that they were transferred to Yunhe's courtyard by the young master.
On this day, she came to Ningxiang's yard again, only to find that Ningxiang was cleaning the yard by herself.
"Why are you cleaning the yard by yourself? Where are the servants?" Shu'er asked.
"I don't know what was being done in Yunhe's yard, but the housekeeper called me there." Ningxiang said.
"Where are the people around you? Have they been transferred too?" Shuer asked.
"They went to the small kitchen and will be back soon," Ningxiang said.
"You haven't had breakfast yet?" Shu'er asked.
"I got up a little late and haven't eaten yet," Ningxiang said.
"Tell me the truth, what did Yunhe tell you that day? Since that day, you have become very nervous and often avoid her. What is the reason?" Shu'er asked... 5
Ningxiang sighed, threw down the broom and turned around and entered the house. Shu'er quickly followed her and entered the house.
After Shu'er sat down, Ningxiang took the initiative to pour her a cup of tea, then sat down and said: "I was planning to ridicule her a few words that day, but she suddenly mentioned the leopard. The second master said, the purpose of my living in the other courtyard,
He is the only one who knows, but now not only you know, but also Yunhe knows. She said, if you want to wait until the leopard comes out safely, then just stay safe. I know that she is now a popular person in front of the young master, and any word will do.
Young Master. So, I am worried that I will offend her with her nonsense, so I just want to keep her distance."
"She actually threatened you with a leopard?" Shu'er said.
Ningxiang sneered in her heart, didn't you threaten me?
"Yes, she is different from you. You just hope that I can cooperate with you, but from her tone, I can tell that she is threatening me." Ningxiang cried.
Shu'er comforted her for a few words, but found that the maid still hadn't come back, so she asked, "Didn't you say that the maid went to the kitchen? Why haven't you brought the food yet?"
"Don't worry, I can't eat it anyway." Ningxiang said.
Shu'er didn't stay long and left the courtyard. Because she was curious, she went to the kitchen. She found that the maid next to Ningxiang was sitting and resting. She walked up and asked: "Your master hasn't eaten yet.
Why did you come here to rest?"
"There is no room in the small kitchen, so we have no choice but to sit here and wait," the maid said.
"What are you doing in the small kitchen?" Shuer asked.
"It's Miss Yunhe's tonic." the maid said.
"Does her maid need to occupy the entire small kitchen?" Shu'er asked.
"It is said to be a precious medicinal material. It cannot be eaten at the same time to avoid contamination." The maid said.
"Then why don't you go to the big kitchen?" Shu'er asked.
"You still have to walk to the big kitchen, we can just wait here for a while," the maid said.
"Ningxiang hasn't eaten yet. Is this how you serve the master?" Shu'er asked.
"Miss Shu'er, you'd better take care of yourself. Miss Ningxiang isn't in a hurry, so why are you in a hurry?" the maid said.
Shu Er wanted to say something else, but the two maids got up and went into the kitchen, ignoring Shu Er at all.
During lunch, she originally wanted to eat with Ningxiang, but she was invited by the young master of the Zhao family to have dinner with her in the main courtyard.
Of course, Shu'er would not be stupid enough to refuse the young master's invitation for the sake of Ningxiang, so she naturally agreed happily.
It's just that when Shu'er sat down at the dinner table, the original smile on her face was gone, because the young master of the Zhao family didn't invite her alone, and there was Yun sitting next to her.
Dutch.
The food on the table was dazzling and looked very delicious. When the young master of the Zhao family saw Shu'er sitting blankly, he said, "Shu'er, hurry up and eat. Why are you sitting here stupidly?"
Shuer picked up a dish and ate it, and said: "It tastes very good, Shuer likes it very much."
"Really? If it's delicious, eat more of it. Yun He also said this dish is delicious a few days ago, so I asked the chef to make another dish today." said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Master, how long has it been since you last seen Ningxiang?" Shu'er asked.
"Why do you think of asking Ningxiang?" asked the young master of the Zhao family.
"Shu'er met Ningxiang early this morning and saw that Ningxiang was cleaning the yard. Shu'er was a little curious. The servants in Ningxiang's yard had gone to who knows where. How could Ningxiang be allowed to clean alone?"
The son said.
"Where did all the servants go?" asked the young master of the Zhao family.
Just as Shu'er was about to explain, Yun He snatched her over and said, "There are a lot of debris in my yard. When I was cleaning it yesterday, I didn't have enough manpower. The housekeeper probably went to Ningxiang's yard and called someone to help. I'm going to
Tell people to go back and tell them to go back quickly."
Yun He glanced at the maid behind him, and the maid hurried back to the yard.
The young master of the Zhao family said to Shu'er: "You have always mentioned Ningxiang these days. It seems that you get along well with her."
"Shu'er and Ningxiang have always had a good relationship, so we have been walking around a lot these days. When I saw the dishes on this table, I remembered that Ningxiang hadn't eaten just now, and I felt a little sorry." Shu'er said.
"Since she hasn't eaten, let's invite her over to eat with her," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Master, is it really okay?" Shu'er asked.
"What's wrong? It's just a meal." The young master of the Zhao family said.
After casually understanding what the young master meant, he went to Ningxiang's yard and invited Ningxiang over.
As a result, as soon as Ningxiang sat down, she heard the young master of the Zhao family say: "I heard that you didn't even eat breakfast?"
"It's because Ningxiang can't eat it herself," Ningxiang said.
"If you feel that the dishes in the small kitchen are not to your taste, you can tell them to make some other side dishes for you. You look so weak, as if other courtyards don't give you food," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Yes." Ningxiang said.
"Master, the small kitchen is busy stewing Yunhe's bird's nest. How can I have time to cook for Ningxiang? It's just that Ningxiang doesn't want to cause trouble, so she endures it again and again. It's been several days and she hasn't had a meal.
Hot food, do you know that the porridge Ningxiang drank a few days ago was sour?" Shu'er said.
