Wonderful Puppet

Zhen Miao suppressed her uneasiness and walked towards Ningshou Hall with the corner of her skirt.

The weather has turned cold, because she drank a few sips of fruit wine at Princess Chuxia's birthday party, and caught a little hedgehog with Luo Tianzheng, her cheeks were still flushed, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, covered by the wind. As soon as it blows, it is cold.

Today, the sky is getting dark early, before the time of You, the sky is dark, and the blue clouds in the distance are rolling and falling heavily, making people depressing for no reason.

Zhen Miao glanced at the dignified and solemn black eaves of Ningshou Hall, and secretly took a breath.

Beside the moon cave gate, there is no maidservant guarding the gate.

On the contrary, there were a few little girls standing beside the bluestone steps, talking together without knowing what to say.

Zhen Miao walked over directly.

Only then did the little servant girl find out and hastily saluted: "Fourth Miss."

"Where is Bai Shao?" Zhen Miao walked inside without stopping.

"Sister Bai Shao followed the old lady to Qinglianju." The little maid said with a disturbed expression.

Zhen Miao only felt her heart beating a few times.

Qinglianju is the courtyard where the eldest brother Zhen Huan and Mrs. Yu live. Now it's time for dinner. If the old lady doesn't stay in Ningshoutang, how could she go there?

Even if something happened, they should be summoned.

Is it—

Thinking of a certain possibility, Zhen Miao's face changed slightly, and she asked in a deep voice, "Why did the old lady go there?"

Since she lived in the Bisha closet of Ningshoutang, Zhen Miao has a very good temper in the eyes of the little maids, most of the time she is smiling and generous, so they like this master very much.

Suddenly seeing Zhen Miao's downcast face, the little girl didn't react for a while, and she didn't speak for a while.

"What's the matter?" Zhen Miao secretly reminded herself not to panic, her tone softened.

"Yes, it's Grandma, she slipped and had a seizure—" the little maid stammered.

"What?" The blood on Zhen Miao's face faded all of a sudden.

Yu Shi was only seven months pregnant before she had an attack.That--

Zhen Miao didn't care about anything else, and rushed to Qinglianju with Aluan and Qingge.

Ningshou Hall is quite a distance away from Qinglian Residence, Zhen Miao ran fast with her skirt in hand.

Along the way, I didn't even meet a few servants.

In the dark sky, the uncle's mansion was quiet, and the uneasiness in his heart was like dark clouds brewing thunder, piling up more and more.

Zhen Miao ran even faster.

I kicked a stone with my toe all of a sudden, and squatted down with a ouch of pain.

"Girl, what's the matter?" A Luan hurriedly knelt down to check.

The flat-bottomed bamboo-green embroidered magpie and plum embroidered shoes exposed outside the corner of the skirt, a touch of bright red quickly oozes from the toes.

That bright red is getting bigger and bigger.Soon it will blend with the gorgeous plum blossoms.

"Girl, your foot is hurt!" A Luan carefully went to take off Zhen Miao's shoes.

Zhen Miao waved her hand: "Ah Luan, don't worry about it, quickly help me to Qinglianju."

"Girl—" Aluan hesitated for a moment.

The tip of the toe is already bleeding. If it is not treated in time, it will be difficult to remove the blood stain after it sticks to the shoe surface.

But seeing Zhen Miao's determined expression, she still let out a low sigh and reached out to help her.

"Girl. I'll carry you." Qing Ge bent down and picked up Zhen Miao, and her running was no slower than her running alone.

Zhen Miao lay on Qing Ge's generous back, feeling very secure.

Not long after arriving at Qinglianju, Zhen Miao's eyes jumped when she saw it.

The courtyard was already full of people.They are all the maids and wives of each house.

"Fourth Miss, what's wrong with you?" Huabi, the eldest girl next to Wen's, was startled when she saw Zhen Miao like this, and rushed to greet her.

"Accidentally hurt my foot. It's okay, where's my mother?"

"Old Madam, the ladies of the third room are all in the house." Hua Bi said and led Zhen Miao into the house.

Entering the main room, the room was also full of people.

The old lady sat on the grand teacher's chair, her face was as gloomy as the sky outside.

Jiang Shi was quite calm, sitting on the side comforting the old lady.

Wen's eyes were all red, and seeing Zhen Miao being carried in behind her back, she was startled.

"Miaoer, what's wrong with you?"

Zhen Miao explained the reason again, and hurriedly asked: "Mother, how is my sister-in-law?"

Wen's hands trembled, and his face became even paler: "I've had an attack, and I'm giving birth, and I don't know if the baby will survive—"

Speaking of this, she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief embroidered with wishful patterns in plain yarn, and sobbed.

"Okay, Wen Shi, Miao'er is still a girl's family, what are you talking about with her?" The old lady said with displeasure, "Bai Shao, take Fourth Miss to the cubicle to treat her foot injury."

"Yes, old lady." Bai Shao came over to help Zhen Miao.

"Big Sister Bai Shao leads the way, I'll carry the girl there." Qing Ge said without blushing or panting.

After entering the cubicle, Qing Ge put Zhen Miao on the beauty couch, and Bai Shao knelt down to take off her shoes.

"Sister Bai Shao, I'll come." A Luan said softly, and also squatted down.

"The girl is also my master, so it's the same when I come, Aluan, you go and tell the girls outside to bring a basin of hot water, scissors and ointment, and ask them to bring them."

A Luan answered yes in a low voice, and walked out.

Bai Shao lightly took off the shoes, even so, because the blood stains had dried up, and the flesh and shoes stuck together, Zhen Miao still frowned in pain, but didn't make a sound.

Bai Shao looked at the dark red on the snow-white socks, and pursed her lips.

Aluan and Qingge, after all, are still a little junior.

Even if it's a big deal, the girl shouldn't be allowed to run like this.

The girl's family is precious, if there is a scar from the injury, it will be a big deal.

Although Zisu was serious and calm, she had a cold face and a warm heart, and she was too indulgent with them. It seemed that in the future, she would not be able to be the villain herself.

Since Bai Shao's mind was moved, she knew that she would live by Zhen Miao for the rest of her life.

In the past, she didn't have to let go of those all-round good karma, as long as the girl is safe and sound is the most important thing.

"Bai Shao." Zhen Miao suddenly said.

"Girl?" Bai Shao raised her head.

Zhen Miao forced a smile: "Don't blame Aluan and Qingge, I'm too impatient. Although rushing here won't help much, but if I don't get here sooner, my heart will always be torn. Tell me well Come on, how could the eldest grandma slip and fall?"

Only then did Bai Shao tell what she knew.

Zhen Miao frowned upon hearing this.

Yu Shi actually slipped and fell by the pond in the garden.

There were a few koi in that pond. Since Mrs. Yu was a month old, she went for a walk in the garden every morning and evening, and liked to go there to feed the fish.

It's just that the pond is surrounded by white painted railings.The surrounding area is even paved with cobblestones, and Mrs. Yu is not a careless person, so it stands to reason that she would not fall down for no reason.

"Later, the old lady sent someone to investigate. Vegetable oil was sprinkled in the crevices of the pebbles."

Zhen Miao's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.

Yu Shi was pregnant for more than seven months. If this time was not accidental but man-made, it would be too infuriating!

"But who did it find out?"

Bai Shao shook her head: "Grandma's fall was not light, and she was busy asking the doctor to stabilize her. Although the old lady sent someone to check, but where did the people come and go in the garden? ? And now the masters are all worried about the situation of the eldest grandma. It is impossible to find out anything."

At this time A Luan came in with two little girls, half kneeling to treat Zhen Miao's foot injury.

However, Zhen Miao did not feel any pain in her feet, only felt a chill in her heart.

Looking out of the window, I saw a large cloisonné vat under the window. The lotus in it had begun to wither. The lotus leaves were half yellow and half green, and most of them were damaged. Ye, looked particularly desolate.

There was a thunderclap.The raindrops fell unexpectedly.

Bean-sized raindrops splashed down into the vat, and the remaining flowers and leaves swayed with the protruding waves.

Zhen Miao felt even more depressed when she saw it, so she turned her eyes away.

This uncle's mansion looks peaceful, but in fact, there are so many things with human faces and animal hearts hidden in the dark.

Waiting for an opportunity to bite someone.It's bloody pain.

The Yu family's matter is obviously plotted by someone secretly, but just as Bai Shao said, there are people coming and going in the garden.Ordinary vegetable oil, there is no way to check it.

Zhen Miao is not good at these things, but she has a keen intuition.Get right down to the root of things.

The evidence is not important, what is important is the person hiding in the dark.

If you don't find out and be on guard, I'm afraid there will be big troubles in the future.

No, it's already big trouble.

Mrs. Yu was born prematurely. I'm afraid the child will not survive, maybe even the adults--

Zhen Miao didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Who is going to plot against the Yu family?

Zhen Huan was the only male in their room, and there was no jealousy between sisters-in-law.

The old lady is naturally happy to see the full house of children and grandchildren.

Then there are the first room and the second room.

Mrs. Li is mean and has had no children for many years, but it would be unreasonable to say that she killed her nephew and daughter-in-law just because of this.

Injuring others is not good for oneself.

As for Jiang, it's even more out of the question.

Zhen Miao thought of someone.

The third girl is Zhen Jing.

The embroidery thread soaked in blood red flowers was her handwriting.

It's just that since I ran into Zhen Jing in the garden that time, I haven't seen her again.

Afterwards, she noticed that Zhen Jing never came out of Mrs. Jiang's Minghuayuan again.

No matter what the reason was for Zhen Jing's removal to Minghuayuan, it meant that Dafang treated her more strictly.

It stands to reason that she has no chance to make a move.

Zhen Miao frowned tightly, and analyzed like peeling cocoons, but felt like a mess, unable to make sense of it.

It would be great if the second sister was here.

"Girl, it's done." Bai Shao said.

Zhen Miao stood up with one foot: "Help me to the main room."

"Si girl, you hurt your foot, just rest in the cubicle, you don't need to guard here." Once inside, the old lady opened her mouth.

Zhen Miao had already noticed that Sister Zhen Bing was not there either, presumably because she felt that there was such a thing as childbirth and she didn't want their little girls to join in.

"Grandmother, my granddaughter is really worried about my sister-in-law, and I feel even more uneasy when I go elsewhere, so you let me stay here."

The old lady thought for a while, then nodded and said no more.

There was silence in the room, but the sound of rain outside became louder.

It fell down like a splash of water, which made people feel terrified.

Zhen Huan stood upright, fists clenched tightly, and kept looking in the direction of the corridor.

A maid rushed in with trembling lips: "Madam, it's not good. I heard from Po Wen that Grandma has passed out!"

Shocked by Shi Potian, Zhen Huan rushed out suddenly. (To be continued..)

ps: There is another update in the evening, to make up for yesterday's.I had something to do at work last night, and it was already twelve o'clock when I got back. . .
