Chapter 16
"That's a good thing, but there is Sister Osmanthus, she heard it, and I want to silence it!"

Mo Yan stood up quickly, made a neck-choking motion with both hands, and got into a mess with Zhao Guihua. Without knowing it, she thought the three of them were so close.

After waiting for about half an hour, Li Yue'e hadn't come back, so Zhao Guihua became anxious now, she frowned, holding her chin in her hand and said hesitantly, "Why hasn't Yue'e come back yet, could it be that it's too hot outside, she got heatstroke?"

"Miss Zhao, don't worry, why don't you go downstairs and have a look."

Xia Ruoxue's maid, Chun Qing, was a good one. Seeing her master nodding, she filled the three of them with tea, and before leaving, she gently closed the door.

Mo Yan looked up at the calligraphy and painting on the opposite wall. A running script is like flowing clouds and flowing water, full of a sense of fluency. Back then, she had studied calligraphy for a period of time in order to meditate, and she was very keen on calligraphy and painting.

However, what did Li Yue'e do?If you didn't go to General Yuan Xiao, why did you lie?The two maids couldn't find their master, so they should have heard that the four of them came to visit Xianju, why did they disappear?Mo Yan drank tea, looked at Zhao Guihua who was looking panicked, and always felt that something was wrong.

Xia Ruoxue didn't seem to care much about where Li Yue'e went. She closed her eyes, and quickly let out a shallow breathing sound, which made people think that she was asleep.

Time passed bit by bit, and the private room was extremely quiet. It seemed that it had only been a short while, and it seemed like a long time, when finally there was movement at the door.Xia Ruoxue opened her eyes immediately, the fundus of her eyes were bright and clear, she looked a little drowsy!

"Miss, Miss Zhao, the servant girl went down to search for it, and asked someone to inquire, but they all said that they didn't see Miss Li, nor did they see your two maids."

The servant girl Chunqing's face was flushed by the sun, sweat dripped from the corner of her forehead, and Mo Xiang, who had returned from Yushi's mansion, followed behind her.Having cheated Xia Ruoxue's expensive jewelry, Mo Yan was worried, so she sent Mo Xiang back home.

"how is this possible!"

Zhao Guihua stood up vigorously, and walked back and forth clutching the handkerchief tightly, "Such a big living person, is it gone?"

"Miss Zhao, don't worry, I must have met other sisters, let's chat for a while and forget the time!"

Xia Ruoxue said a few words of relief, looked at the hourglass by the window, it was already past noon, she stood up, she didn't plan to stay here for a long time, she had to go to a silk and satin shop in the afternoon to have her clothes tailored, this time my mother finally spent a lot of money to hire the best man in the south of the Yangtze River Skillful embroiderer, embroiderer's legs and feet are not flexible, so she has to come to the door in person.

"Probably not."

The servant girl was nowhere to be found, Li Yue'e was nowhere to be seen, Zhao Guihua was in a hurry, she couldn't help comforting herself in her heart, in broad daylight, there shouldn't be any mistakes.

While the three were discussing how to find the person, the door of the private room was pushed open, and Li Yuee ran in with a panicked expression, then turned sideways, and closed the door vigorously, as if someone was chasing after her.

"Yue'e, why did you come back?"

Seeing that the person returned safely, Zhao Guihua breathed a sigh of relief, and the two invited them out of the house. If Li Yue'e made any mistakes, she would not be able to absolve herself of the blame. The Li family was the one the Zhao family was wooing, and she could not afford to offend her.

"What's the matter, Ms. Li?"

Xia Ruoxue's eyes were sharp, and she noticed blood stains on Li Yue'e's sleeve. Seeing that her arm was wrapped in a layer of white gauze, she asked concerned, "Why is your arm injured?"

"I was not careful, it was just a scratch."

Li Yue'e patted her chest with her hand, poured two cups of tea in succession, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, "I made you worry. I was in a hurry just now, so I went to the medical clinic first."

Although Li Yue'e tried her best to pretend to be calm, Mo Yan could still find an unconcealable panic in her eyes. Looking closely, Li Yue'e's face was pale, her pupils were dilated, her legs were trembling, and her facial muscles were beating constantly, which is common when people are frightened. Reaction.

It's just a scratch, why am I so surprised?And looking carefully at Li Yue'e's cuffs, the traces of blood were not caused by abrasions. Judging from the shape, the edges of the blood spattered in a jagged shape, and it was a dot spreading around. It was obviously not the blood from her wound.

After working as a forensic doctor for a long time, Mo Yan suffered from an occupational disease again. If the blood did not belong to Li Yuee, what was her arm wrapped in white gauze for?Trying to cover up?Where did she go this hour?

"Yue'e, what about Hong'er and Qin Yin?"

Hong'er is Zhao Guihua's maid, and the piano sound is Li Yue'e's. The two maids have not returned yet. Zhao Guihua is worried, afraid that the maid will not know that they are looking at Xianju and think they are lost. If they go back to report, there will be trouble. A big oolong comes.

"No...don't know."

Li Yue'e's body visibly trembled, and for a short time, she covered the arm of the other hand with one hand, pretending that her arm was in pain, and sat down on the chair beside her just right.

Li Yue'e's face was pale, her body was trembling, and she sat paralyzed as if she had no bones. Zhao Guihua didn't care too much. It's normal for an official daughter of a wealthy family to be coquettish, and she would cry even if a small eye was pricked by acupuncture, let alone an arm injury. , shed so much blood.

"Yue'e, why don't I take you back home first."

Just after noon, when the weather was at its hottest, Li Yue'e came back from the outside with traces of sweat on the neckline. The two of them also brought a few sets of clothes with them when they went out, and they were all in the carriage. Now that the maid is not here, Zhao Guihua can help , and accompanied Li Yue'e to change this slightly embarrassing dress first.

"it is good."

Li Yue'e calmed down for a while, obviously not as panicked as before. She glanced at the door, turned her head and apologized, "Miss Ruoxue, Yan Yan, I am the one who spoiled the fun this time, next time I will definitely put it on the table, please two of you Have tea and apologize."

"Where is Miss Li, everything is an accident."

Xia Ruoxue waved her hand, and carefully said some precautions for wound healing. At the end, she specifically pointed out, "Don't worry about leaving scars. Last time I entered the palace, the Queen Mother rewarded me with a bottle of Yurong Ointment, and there is still more than half of it."

Going out from Wangxianju, Mo Yan once again felt the strong light. She didn't want to talk nonsense, she just wanted to get into the carriage and go back to the house to cat. There is no ice basin in the inner room, and it is better than standing stupidly in the sun.

Over there, Li Yue'e was thanking Xia Ruoxue with tears in her eyes. The two of them came and went, inseparable, but they really looked like very good sisters.

Hong'er and Qin Yin still didn't come back, Xia Ruoxue sent a little maid guarding in the carriage to see them off.Seeing Li Yue'e and Zhao Guihua's carriage leaving, Xia Ruoxue didn't intend to continue pretending, she simply greeted Mo Yan, and got into the carriage without looking back.
