"Really, you really saw that ghost yesterday..." Su Jinluo, who was continuing to walk, suddenly heard a strange conversation.
"No." The voice of the maid who was asked was trembling and somewhat proud: "I saw it running around in the garden that day. I don't know what it was doing, but it scared me."
"Oh my god, why is this ghost always hanging around the second lady's Jinhua Courtyard? Hasn't it happened before?" After hearing the words of the maid in front, the voice of the maid behind became more and more unstable.
"I don't know. Anyway, what happened yesterday scared me."
When it comes to the ghost she saw last night, this maid no longer means to show off, but is really afraid of it.
She saw a ghost yesterday. Fortunately, she was not discovered by the ghost. Otherwise, if the ghost discovered her, she would still be alive.
"Second, Miss Second?" Just as the maids were talking, Su Jinluo had already brought Mu Fu to the back of the maids.
As soon as the maid saw Su Jinluo appearing, she called out "Second Miss" and immediately fell silent, her eyes widening with fear.
After all, no master wants to hear his slaves discussing messy things like there is a ghost in his yard. When he thought of the second lady's power, the little maid's eyes filled with tears.
Even though she was sent here by the Madam, she is just a little maid. If the Second Young Lady really sells her, the Madam will definitely not refuse. Even the Princess cannot defeat the Second Young Lady, let alone a little maid like her?
Thinking of this, the little maid almost despaired.
"Second Miss!" Several other maids were also frightened. They all shrank their necks and looked at Su Jinluo like quails.
"You guys, let's go." Su Jinluo glanced at the maid who said she saw ghosts, and asked them to leave. After receiving Su Jinluo's amnesty order, those few maids could not care about their loyalty, and they all
leave.
When the little maid who was left alone saw this situation, her tears flowed down without stopping.
The little maid quickly knelt down in front of Su Jinluo: "Second Miss, please spare this slave once. I will never dare to talk nonsense again. I beg you, Second Miss, give me a chance."
"Get up." Seeing the little maid crying pitifully, Su Jinluo directly asked the little maid to stand up: "I don't mean to blame you, but it seems that I scared you, Mu Fu,
Lift her up."
Seeing the little maid looking at him dumbfounded and forgetting to stand up, Su Jinluo asked Mu Fu to help the little maid up.
Mu Fu personally stepped forward and helped the little maid up. Until this moment, the little maid was still a little confused. Her face was slightly red and she peeked at Su Jinluo timidly.
The little maid was still guessing that the second young lady was not as scary as the legend said, and she was quite nice.
What's more important is that she has been in Jinhuayuan for so long, and she has never heard the second lady lose her temper or punish any slave.
Thinking of this, the little maid secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"You said you saw a ghost wandering around in this garden, right? Can I ask you a favor?" Su Jinluo looked at the little maid affectionately and asked softly.
Hearing Su Jinluo's voice like water, tinkling like a spring, the little maid's face became even more rosy, and she nodded shyly: "As long as I can help, I will definitely help the second lady to the end."
"What does the second young lady want this slave to do?" Once she saw that the second young lady was very kind, and had a beautiful voice and a beautiful heart, the little maid suddenly became a lot more courageous.
Seeing the change in the little maid, Su Jinluo smiled. Even though all the slaves in Jinhua Courtyard, except Mu Fu, were arranged by her grandmother, it was a pity that her grandmother could have so many confidants.
, and each performs his or her duties.
"You said you saw a ghost just now. Can you take me to the place where you saw the ghost last night?"
Su Jinluo brought up the old story again. Instead of getting angry at the little maid's remarks about seeing ghosts, she actually acted bolder than ordinary people and insisted on taking a look.
The little maid hesitated for a moment: "Second Miss, are you not afraid?"
"If you don't do anything wrong on weekdays, you won't be surprised if you knock on the door in the middle of the night." Su Jinluo answered the little maid with a smile.
The little maid, who was still vaguely unable to let go because of what happened last night, immediately became more open-minded after hearing Su Jinluo's words.
Yes, the second lady is right!
She didn't do anything wrong. Even that ghost was not killed by her during her lifetime. What should she be afraid of? Others should be afraid of her.
Thinking of this, the little maid looked at Su Jinluo's bright eyes and felt that the second young lady in front of her was not only a kind person, but also had such a big heart that ordinary people could not compare to. No wonder she could win the eyes of the emperor and the empress dowager, and was named
Princess Xiaode.
The little maid was filled with pride when she thought that she had to help the second young lady: "Second young lady, you come with this servant, and I will lead you the way."
The place the little maid led was not that far away. After a while, the little maid pointed to a small tree and said, "Yesterday, I saw that ghost shadow that kept moving there."
The little maid pointed, and Su Jinluo recognized that she had taken Mu Fu around in a circle, and actually went back to the path back to her main house.
Seeing this situation, Su Jinluo raised his eyebrows: "Although I have never done anything wrong, it is just that such things can easily cause panic in others. If possible, can you please not mention this matter again in the future?
?”
Su Jinluo looked at the little maid: "Besides, you just said that it was a ghost, so that means you are not sure what it is, right?"
Su Jinluo clearly felt that what the little maid said had changed.
The little maid blushed: "What the second lady said is that a few days ago, the kitchen aunt's grandson said he saw a ghost, and we were all a little scared. When the slave girl got up last night, she happened to see a black shadow nesting there.
, maybe this is the misunderstanding.”
When she saw the black shadow, her first reaction was to think of the ghost she had mentioned before, so she was so frightened that she didn't even dare to ask whether the black shadow was a human or a ghost.
Thinking of this, the little maid felt extremely embarrassed.
"If that's the case, I guess the person you saw might also be someone who got up at night, but you two didn't talk to each other, so you misunderstood."
Su Jinluo smiled comfortingly, saying that such misunderstanding was actually quite normal, and asked the little maid not to take it to heart.
"Well, thank you Miss Second." The little maid nodded with a blushing face, indicating that she would control her mouth and would not talk randomly again in the future.
