Chapter 57 Strange Things

"Young Mistress!" Suddenly a maid yelled at Lian Xiyu, and when Lian Xiyu turned around, she saw Qingsun holding a lantern and several maids looking at her in surprise.After looking around, I realized that this place is not far from the half-acre garden, but it is far away from the rockery.Lian Xiyu couldn't help feeling lingering fears when she thought about Zhao Linghuai, who was inexplicable but threatening just now, she really couldn't understand why Zhao Linghuai was like this, if she didn't have the black face and big ice cube, she still didn't know what would happen now, isn't Zhao Linghuai The kind of person who will show mercy.

"Let's go back." Lian Xiyu said calmly after seeing the green bamboo shoots approaching, and then stepped up and left without saying anything, too much explanation would be a bad thing.

"Oh." Qingsun nodded dumbfoundedly, followed up with the lantern in hand, although she felt a little strange why Lian Xiyu came here alone, but Lian Xiyu had her own reasons if she didn't say anything.

Back in the yard, only to find that Zhao Lingyi and Dongzhu Xiulan were already waiting.

"Where have you been?" Zhao Lingyi looked at Lian Xiyu nervously.

Lian Xiyu smiled lightly

"The Rongguo Mansion is too big, I'm lost." Seeing that Zhao Lingyi was nervous, Dongzhu took Xiulan's hand and waited behind, secretly pursing his lips and smiling.

Only then did Zhao Lingyi heave a sigh of relief, he didn't want to see Lian Xiyu suddenly disappear like that person back then, and when he found it the next day, it was just a cold corpse.

"Go back and have a rest, it's getting late." Zhao Lingyi said softly, pulling Lian Xiyu's hand.

Because Lian Xiyu was still thinking about Zhao Linghuai, she didn't notice Zhao Lingyi's abnormality, so she just nodded and walked in to rest. Zhao Lingyi also accompanied her to rest, but agreed. She promised, never touched her.

Hongluo finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the lights in the room turned off.
"It's a good thing that the young mistress is fine, otherwise, if the incident from that year happened again, I'm afraid the master would really not be able to bear it."

Lettuce also sighed

"But we're going to be miserable tomorrow." If we lose our young mistress today, my master will definitely punish them tomorrow.

Hongluo smiled helplessly, and she couldn't blame others for making them careless.

But not everyone is happy to see Lian Xiyu come back safely.

"Why didn't you die!" Li Lianyi angrily threw all the tea sets to the ground. Today, Zhao Lingyi was going to rest by her side, and everyone came over, but it was the maid who said 'Young Mistress is missing' and got up in a hurry I went out, isn't Lian Xiyu doing well now?

"Auntie, why are you so angry?" the maid asked, looking at Li Lianyi who was sitting by the bed.

"My master didn't just order me to be an aunt here in peace, if we didn't have Zhao Lingyi's favor, how would we inquire about the news?" Li Lianyi looked at the maid dissatisfied and said.

"Master wants you to keep an eye on Zhao Lingyi." The maid replied calmly.

"Zhao Lingyi's name is also yours? You'd better pay attention, after all, you are just a maid here, a servant, and the master's name is not your turn to call it. Besides, I am very clear about my mission. , Master just wants to know if Zhao Lingyi is really like this or just pretending? If I get his favor, are you afraid that he won't tell me anything?" Li Lianyi got off the bed and looked at the maid and said coldly.

The maid retreated to one side, bowed and did not speak, but she already had a plan in her mind.

Li Lianyi snorted coldly

"If you dare to gossip in front of the master, I will never let you go!" After Li Lianyi finished speaking, she looked at the candlelight in the room with a cold face. From her point of view, although Lian Xiyu was magnanimous on the surface, she was not jealous. , but today she used this kind of dirty trick to trick Master into her yard. This is obviously a fight for favor, no matter how generous she is on the surface, she is still a jealous woman after all.

"You go down and get ready. I'm going to Aunt Yao tomorrow morning!" Li Lianyi smiled smugly. This Yao Fanghua always stays in the Buddhist hall in the courtyard, burning incense and worshiping Buddha all day long. Can't sit still!
Lian Xiyu woke up very early today, at dawn, got up and dressed alone, called the maid to come in to take care of her grooming, and then went straight out.

After Lian Xiyu left, Zhao Lingyi, who was still lying on the bed, opened his eyes, looking at Lian Xiyu's back, his eyes flashed with thought.

In the morning, Lian Xiyu doesn't need to set the rules, and Zhao Lingyi is a seventh-rank editorial official, so he doesn't need to go to the morning court. He only needs to go to the Imperial Academy to be on duty, so breakfast can still be used together.

It is still the delicate side dishes prepared by Dongzhu, a small dish of cold dishes, a soup, two meat and two vegetables.Lian Xiyu liked the cold dish very much, but Dongzhu didn't make much of it, because using too much cold dish would be bad for his health, and Lian Xiyu couldn't control it, so Dongzhu made his own idea and only served it in a small plate.

Zhao Lingyi looked at Lian Xiyu eating cold dishes non-stop, the corners of his mouth slightly raised,
"Women should eat less cold food."

Even Xi Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, and Zhao Lingyi broke the rule of not saying a word when eating.

"There are very few winter bamboos." The tone seemed to be filled with resentment, Zhao Lingyi looked at such Lian Xiyu but laughed out loud
"Dongzhu did the right thing."

Dongzhu also pursed his lips and smiled
"Thank you for your compliment."

Lian Xiyu glared at Dongzhu lightly.

"Are you my maid or Grandpa's maid? It doesn't look like it was brought by Lianfu at all."

Dongzhu covers his mouth and chuckles
"Naturally, the servant girl is the dowry maid of the young mistress, but now the master is also the master of the servant girl, and you are the wife of the master."

After Dongzhu finished speaking, everyone pursed their lips and smiled secretly, even Xiyu also smiled. Looking at the morning light, his mood suddenly improved a lot, and the breakfast with Zhao Lingyi was worth it Happy, but Zhao Lingyi walked out of the half-acre garden on the front foot, and Li Lianyi came with another face-faced woman on the back foot. It looked like a woman with a bun, but her face was a little more sallow and less A little moist.

"Young Mistress, that's Aunt Yao, who has been worshiping Buddha in her small courtyard for many years." Xiulan hurriedly said in Lian Xiyu's ear.

Lian Xiyu nodded, and told Xiulan to lead them to the flower hall to wait, and he also came to the flower hall after drinking a sip of tea.

Li Lianyi sat complacently and only waited for Lian Xiyu to come over, thinking that if Lian Xiyu found out about the news, a jealous woman like her would definitely have a reaction in her heart.

"Aunt Yao, I have to pay a good visit to the young mistress in a while. Yesterday, the young mistress almost disappeared like Fangrong. Fortunately, the young mistress was found by the master."

As soon as Li Lianyi finished speaking, she saw Aunt Yao's face turned pale, and the sadness in her eyes slowly revealed.

When Lian Xiyu walked into the room, he noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and Aunt Yao still had some tears in her eyes.

"Why is Aunt Yao crying? Could it be that she was bullied somewhere?" Lian Xiyu sat down and looked at Li Lianyi below. Li Lianyi had a smile on his forehead, his back was straight, and he looked proud. Covering his face with his hands, he sobbed softly.
