After falling into the water, I robbed the future first assistant of the marriage!

Chapter 11 Casting the Lake Mystery
Although the moon above his head was bright and clear, his heart was as cold as the weather.

He seldom drank alcohol, and his mother didn't allow it, saying that he was weak and had to bear it well, but today, he asked Shi Yi for this jug of wine.

Today is the Lantern Festival, the man and woman who like each other naturally proposed to meet each other, but she refused him.

She said that she had contracted a cold and was not in good health, so it was inconvenient for her to leave the house.

He can accept her reasons for rejecting him, but she used to be the one who had to go out of the house to meet him when she was caught in the cold.

Had he done something wrong to make her unhappy?
He wanted to ask her face to face, but she seemed—not even willing to see him.

The wine seems to be almost bottomed out, but the depression in my heart has not diminished a bit.

-

"Miss, miss, wake up."

Zheng Xiang, who was in a deep sleep, didn't fall asleep until the fourth o'clock last night, and was woken up just after falling asleep.

The voice in her ear really made her a little annoyed, she turned over, buried her face in the quilt, and ignored it.

Seeing her turning over and going back to sleep, Qiqiao was very anxious, "Miss, I can't sleep anymore, the old lady and the eldest lady are about to leave."

Set off?

Where are you going?

The person is awake, but the eyelids are still heavy, and he doesn't want to open them.

"Today, the old lady goes to Fuhua Temple to pray for blessings. All the female relatives in the mansion have to go. The lady should get up quickly! You can't ask the old lady and the others to wait for the lady."

Fuhua Temple?
Why go to Fuhua Temple to pray for blessings at this time, isn't it always in mid-April in previous years?

"Miss, the old lady..." Qi Qiao's anxious voice trembled a little.

"Get up." I was really afraid of Qiqiao's terrible urging, what about the old lady, the old lady didn't like her at all, if the whole house's female family members waited for her by the carriage, it would be fine.

Wash and dress up.

Shen Tu closed his eyes, propped his elbows on the dressing table, feeling drowsy.

As the shopkeeper said, the stamina of this koji wine is really strong, and now this head still hurts a bit.

"Miss, it's all right." A pretty voice came from behind and above, today she was going to the temple to pray for blessings, so she chose the most elegant hairpin in the makeup box for her.

Shen Tu slowly opened his eyes, and gave a faint "hmm".

Mrs. Qi and Qi Yue share a carriage, the eldest lady naturally shares a carriage with her own daughter, and she can only share a carriage with Qi Shilang's concubine, Wang Liuying.

Before the drunkenness completely dissipated, the carriage swayed, and Shen Tu closed his eyes, drowsy.

Fuhua Temple sits on the outskirts of the capital, on the side of a mountain called Fengjiu Mountain, and the carriage can only go to the foot of the mountain. Because of the efficacies, the incense is endless.

It takes about an hour from the city to the foot of Fengjiu Mountain.

Halfway through the journey, Wang Liuying suddenly came to Shen Tu's side, sniffed vigorously, and quickly covered her nose with a handkerchief.

"Hey! Where did Miss Wu go last night? The smell of alcohol is still there!"

This Wang Liuying is now favored, and there is Qi Shilang as a backer in the mansion, so she has nothing to fear.

Shen Tuan's head was still hurting, he didn't want to talk to her, and didn't plan to talk to her.

But Wang Liuying didn't care about her response, and continued, "I said Fifth Miss, why are you going to throw yourself into the lake? Could it be because of Da Furen?"

"What do you mean?"

Perhaps Shen Tu opened her eyes suddenly, and the sudden noise scared Wang Liuying. She patted her chest, and looked at the person who made the sudden noise reproachfully, "Does Fifth Miss want to scare Liu'er to death?"

Shen Tu asked again, "What did you mean by that sentence just now?"

"Isn't it that the eldest lady wants you..." Wang Liuying stopped suddenly when she reached the critical point, she picked up the handkerchief that fell on her instep, and waved it, "I'm just talking, why is Fifth Miss so serious! "

Serious?
Shen Tu's intuition told her that Wang Liuying's unfinished words must have something to do with the original owner of her body, Touhu, but Wang Liuying didn't want to say more, so she had to give up temporarily.

The carriage finally stopped, and she didn't come back to herself until Wang Liuying got off the carriage and Qiqiao called her.

"Miss," Qi Qiao called her, "it's time to get off the carriage."

Ever since Wang Liuying turned the words on, she has been absent-minded.

Why did Wang Liuying say that, what is the lady going to do with her?
She asked Qi Qiao, but she didn't know why Qi Ye threw himself into the lake.

But Wang Liuying knew, did the old lady and her servant father also know?
Then in this mansion, who else knows?
"Miss," Qiqiao urged softly in her ear, "Miss, it's time to go."

Put away the disturbed mood, hum, "Let's go!"

There is still more than half an hour's journey from the foot of Fengjiu Mountain to Fuhua Temple on the mountainside, Qiqiao looked at the three-turn and nine-turn mountain road, feeling very worried.

The empty jugs she saw in the lady's room this morning really frightened her. She clearly remembered that the lady never drank alcohol, so why did she suddenly start drinking.

Ever since the young lady woke up after throwing herself into the lake, she felt that something about the young lady had changed, such as her preferences and temperament.

"Miss," she looked at Mrs. Qi and Second Miss who had already walked to the front, and hurriedly said to Shen Tu next to her, "Let's follow quickly!"

Shen Tu's drinking capacity is actually very good. When she was Qi Yue, she would ask Chunrong to go to the wine shop to buy good wine, and when she was in the mood, she would take the little maids to have a drink together.

It's just that Naqu was born last night, he ate a lot, and he was really strong after drinking, and he was woken up by Qiqiao before sleeping for a few hours, so he is really tired now.

Although Qiqiao had covered the tiredness in her eyes with powder, her body was still unstoppably tired.

"Qiqiao," Shen Tu lowered his voice and asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Before I threw myself into the lake, did I see the eldest lady?"

Qiqiao murmured, "Madam?"

Then she seemed to remember something, she looked at Shen Tu, nodded, "Yes."

Seeing Shen Tu motioning for her to continue, Qi Qiao continued, "The Da Furen sent Chanjuan to the house to look for the young miss, saying that she wanted to talk to her personally, so I went with the young lady to the big madam's courtyard .”

Selfish?
Based on her understanding of Qin Yurong, she would not suddenly want to talk to Qi Ye for no reason. The children in this mansion were not born by her, so I wish they all disappeared.

"Then what did she tell me?" Shen Tu asked in a low voice. The reason why Qi Yi threw herself into the lake may be related to Qin Yurong's "personal talk" with her.

Seeing that the reason for throwing herself into the lake was about to be found, Qiqiao shook her head, "That day when I followed the miss into the lady's courtyard, Sui Yun called me away and asked me to teach her how to embroider a phoenix."

Embroidered Phoenix?
Who doesn't know that Sui Yun is the best needleworker in Zuo Shilang's mansion, and her skills are not inferior to that of the embroidery girl in the embroidery workshop, so how could she ask Qiqiao to teach her how to embroider phoenixes.

"I didn't want to go, the lady didn't treat the lady well," Qiqiao continued, "but Suiyun dragged me to her room."

"And then?" Shen Tu asked.
