Maid's Counterattack

Chapter 21
On the day of the ceremony, Rou Tong's family cried and shouted Rou Tong's name, distraught. They wanted to see Rou Tong for the last time, but the coffin lid was already crucified and could not be opened. It can smash teeth and swallow it in the stomach.

The mourning hall is set in the main hall as soon as you enter the gate. Flowers are placed on both sides of the coffin. There is a copper basin in front of it. Those who come to worship will burn paper in the copper basin. The eldest son has a white cloth tied on his head and his eyes are bloodshot. , looking dull.

It doesn't look like it will kill Routong at all, Ziluo thought to himself.

"Ziluo, let's go back first."

After Mr. Zhao left, Fang Xin told the eldest lady that he was unwell and left too.

Passing by a small garden, I heard someone crying loudly, which was worse than Routong's family crying.

"Master, Jun'er has been wronged, you don't believe your son so much, are you going to force our mother to death?"

After listening carefully, it turned out that the third lady was entangled in the garden, and Mr. Zhao was crying.

"You go back first, and I will investigate in the future. Besides, don't you know what your son is going to do? Zhui'er, take Madam away quickly, I still have things to do."

Mr. Zhao's tone was a little impatient, no wonder, since the third son was locked in the confinement room, the third wife often came to find Mr. Zhao to make trouble for peace.

"What's the use of making trouble if your son doesn't live up to it?"

Fang Xin kept talking, but didn't stop to linger. In Zi Luo's eyes, she had always been indifferent to the affairs of the house. Even if Mr. Zhao went to the third lady's place every night a few days ago, he never heard her complain.

"Zi Luo has something to ask, but she is afraid of making Madam angry."

Ziluo's voice was extremely low.

For Fang Xin, she was afraid of her, after all, she was the master, but she also had an indescribable sense of intimacy, after all, she was a slave who served the master together.Besides, since she came to Yuexiuxuan, Fang Xin has always been very kind to her, and she is finally closer than the third wife. As for the incident between Canruo and Su Die, although she has been brooding about it, there is no evidence to prove that it was Fang Xin. Instigated, she didn't want to pursue it to the end.After all, she didn't want to break the delicate sympathy between the two of them, and it would not be a good thing for her to turn their faces.

"But it doesn't matter."

There was a smile on the corner of Fang Xin's mouth.

"Ma'am, do you think there is anything wrong with this matter?"

Zi Luo's question was more tactful. Fang Xin served the eldest lady before, and Zi Luo thought she must know something.

"Have."

Fang Xin's answer was simple and direct, which Zi Luo never expected.

"First of all, I didn't say that the third son would not do such stupid things. Secondly, when I saw her at the eldest lady's place before, she was very afraid of the eldest lady and the eldest son, and I heard that her father was dependent on the master, so I offered to take my daughter It’s just that the Eldest Young Master wanted to marry the daughter of General Wang at first, and the fate of his parents is also difficult.”

After Fang Xin finished speaking, he glanced at Zi Luo, as if he wanted to continue to say something, but he didn't speak again.

Ziluo didn't ask any more questions, and the two walked back to Yuexiuxuan thinking about their own affairs.

When I got to the yard, I saw Canruo and Sudie cleaning.

"Madam, just now the housekeeper sent someone to say that Yifuxuan's yard has been tidied up, and there are still some places in the house that need to be cleaned. Because there is not enough manpower for Master Routong, I want you to send two people to help."

Canruo stepped forward to report.

"Let me go."

Zi Luo took the initiative to ask.

"Okay, you and Canruo go there, and move to Yifuxuan earlier, it's more spacious there."

Fang Xin rubbed her temples and went back to the room.

"Let's go."

Ziluo called Shang Canruo to walk out of the yard to Yifuxuan, which used to be the second lady's residence.

Ziluo wanted to take the opportunity of going to Yifuxuan to visit Shuangyue and the others, but it was very inconvenient for Canruo to follow her. Besides, she always kept the matter of Lan Yu in her heart. The night before Lan Yu's accident, she had a dream, Looking back now, I'm afraid it wasn't a dream, because it was so real, Lan Yu must have been curled up on the bed crying something, she only vaguely remembered hearing Lan Yu's voice, crying while saying that she missed the second wife, hated Mr. Zhao or something, In short, everything is not clear, but everything affects her nerves.

Right now, Zi Luo is at a loss for what to do about Rou Tong, and he can only learn a little about the matter of the second lady. Curiosity always pushes her towards the boundless darkness.

"This courtyard is indeed much bigger than Yuexiu Xuan, and it's not remote."

Canruo's voice brought Ziluo back to reality.

Ziluo saw several men moving dusty, even old furniture that had faded from the inside out.

When passing by Ziluo, a piece of drawing paper with a missing corner fell from the furniture to the ground. Ziluo saw Lan Yu's name written crookedly on it. Yu drew it when he was a child.

In the yard, flowers and plants have been planted, as well as a few pots of bonsai.The door of the house has been replaced with a new one, and the closer Zi Luo gets to the main house, the tighter her nerves become, as if she walked into Lan Yu's dusty dream.

"Hey, it's so dirty, where do I start cleaning it?"

Can Ruo complained.

I saw dust all over the room, large and small cobwebs everywhere, coughing three times after taking in a breath, Zi Luo and Can Ruo hurriedly took handkerchiefs to cover their noses, the furniture layout remained the same, but retreated The original luster, looks dilapidated.

"Let's go to the yard to get a broom and a basin of water. Let's clean the ground first. The furniture will be moved out in a while, so don't worry about it."

Ziluo said to Canruo.

The two went back to the yard to pick up the broom, took a basin of water and started to work, while Ziluo was absent-minded, and by cleaning, he secretly buckled this side and rummaged over there, and suddenly something shook in front of his eyes and fell to the ground .

Ziluo was standing in front of the dressing table at this time, she gently opened each compartment, and there were some pearls and hairpin jewelry inside, she was about to leave here, when she tripped accidentally, fortunately she was holding the dressing table with her hands. It didn't fall, but the dressing table vibrated and shifted slightly, revealing a little gap on the side against the wall, and at this moment something fell down.

Zi Luo took a closer look, it was a jade pendant, and it was half of the jade pendant, it fell to the ground and broke into two halves.

Ziluo thought, it must have been sandwiched between the dressing table and the wall, and now it was loose and fell off.

She picked it up and put the two halves together, and found that there were two characters engraved on it, one was Wen, and the other had only a little border, and she couldn't tell what it was, maybe it was Qing characters, Qing Wen, look elsewhere first As soon as he looked for his other half, but couldn't find it, he had to wait for the second son to come back and ask him if he had another half. Thinking this way, Zi Luo secretly looked around, and then hid the jade pendant on his body.

After a while, several people came to move the cabinet. It was a cabinet for clothes. The door of the cabinet opened and closed as it shook, revealing the clothes inside. After the cabinet was moved away, Zi Luo saw a large pile of drawing paper scattered on the ground. Thinking, it probably fell out of the cabinet just moved out. Zi Luo took a closer look, and each one was painted with paintings. The number of jade paintings is also very large. Ziluo estimates that there are hundreds of these paintings, which shows that the second wife likes to draw very much.Ziluo squatted down to tidy up.

"There are so many paintings, just take them to the yard and burn them."

Canruo, who was splashed with water, raised her arm and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her cuff.

"Well, I'm stacking them so they're easy to hug."

Ziluo replied.

Suddenly her hand paused, and a strange painting appeared in front of her eyes.

One pictured a naked baby, and it was painted on the back, with a small bluish blotch next to the buttocks.

What painting is this?Was the second son a child?Why not draw the front?A lot of questions popped up when the furniture mover came in and made his way to the dresser.
