The Blessing of Traveling to Pregnancy

Chapter 4

Qiuyue stared at Ms. Liu, and Ms. Liu changed her mind and said hastily: "Housekeeper Cui, Qiuyue is also obsessed with money for a while. Now that Miss is not in good health, the right is to accumulate blessings for Miss. This matter..."

"Hmph!" Steward Cui interrupted her impatiently, "It's because of such vicious little ghosts, no matter how much luck you have accumulated, it will be wiped out by these little ghosts! If you don't get rid of these ghosts, the young lady will not be able to get rid of them." There will be no peace!"

Qiuyue knelt on the ground and begged for mercy loudly: "No, that's not the case! I was wronged. This box of jewelry was given to me by the lady. I went to the lake to wash clothes..." Suddenly, she seemed to grasp some life-saving straw , suddenly crawled to Mama Liu's side, and firmly grasped her sleeves, "Mother Liu! You know that I went to the river to wash clothes. You asked me to do it. How could I premeditate to kill Miss! You told me to go, most of the clothes in that basin are your clothes..."

Mother Liu stomped her feet angrily, pulled Qiuyue away, and roared angrily: "You shameless little girl, you actually planted the blame on me for your own femme fatale. My mother Liu is far from you, Qiuyue." There is no resentment in the day and no hatred in the near future, what kind of malicious intention do you have to slander me like this?" Turning around, he hurriedly said to Butler Cui: "Qiuyue is already talking out her words, if you let this black-hearted bastard continue If you keep talking like this, it will inevitably pollute the young lady's ears, why don't you ask the servant to take her down and lock her up for a few days! Butler Cui, what do you think?"

Qiuyue widened her eyes and looked at Mother Liu in disbelief, she actually threw herself into trouble!She has worked with Mama Liu for many years, so she naturally knows Mama Liu's dirty tricks. If she is taken down by her servants and falls into Mama Liu's hands, she will die at that time!

Qiuyue struggled immediately, with such strength that the servant couldn't do anything to her for a while.

Steward Cui glared, and was about to use a strong method, but Qiuyue had already struggled to crawl to his legs.Mother Liu ran over and dragged her away, secretly pinching her vigorously, but Qiuyue was in pain, but she just refused to let go!
"Enough!" Cui Butler jumped up.

Qiuyue took the opportunity to shout: "Mother Liu is the murderer! She is the murderer!"

"You presumptuous little hoof!" Mother Liu kicked Qiuyue's heart, and Qiuyue crawled up painfully clutching her heart, and the servant hurriedly pulled the two away.

Seeing that the interrogation was becoming more and more like a farce, Steward Cui glanced worriedly at Qingmei in his arms.He knew that some things could not be interrogated in front of the young Qingmei, so he winked at the servant.The servants in the house have followed Steward Cui for more than ten years, even more than 20 years, and they have long been familiar with Steward Cui's eyes and gestures.After comprehending, he immediately dragged the two of them down.

Qingmei could only watch the good show under her nose, and suddenly the curtain came to an end, and she felt unwilling.

—— Steward Cui, old Cui!It took her a lot of effort to get Qiuyue in, and she was about to pull out the radish and bring out the mud, but now it's like this... sent her away? !

But even if she was unwilling in every possible way, she could only swallow the words silently in her stomach at this moment.

Qiuyue and Ms. Liu were taken down. Qiuju was so frightened that she couldn't keep her mind. Butler Cui took a look at everyone, ordered two maids to stay and take care of Qingmei, and then took the others away. He had to think about how to deal with Qiuyue. thing.

Steward Cui has been taking care of Biezhuang for the Lin family for more than 30 years, from a 20-year-old boy to an old man who is over fifty this year. The years of more than 30 years have continuously polished his character, so that he has already been in front of the mountain collapse without being surprised.Steward Cui sometimes wonders, if he, like other housekeepers in the Lin family, used more methods secretly and managed more connections, would he have become the chief steward of the Lin family in Beijing, instead of preferring to be with this young man? Small rural pastoral.

But when Steward Cui learned about the number of guys who inexplicably died in the hands of the steward of the Beijing Zhonglin Mansion every year, his eager heart let go.Steward Cui was not an ambitious person at all, and he had too much conscience for those in other mansions who wanted to climb to the top.These consciences can't make him the chief steward respected by everyone in Beijing Zhonglin Mansion, but they are enough for him to retire comfortably in this leisurely countryside.

but!

The rest of his safe life was almost in the hands of two women, Qiuyue and Liu's mother!
Although Qingmei is the unfavored daughter of the Lin family, she is still the direct daughter of the Lin family no matter what.She is alive and well, Lin Fu may ignore her.But if she had an accident or even died, the Lin family would definitely blame the entire Biezhuang!This is not because Qingmei is very important to the Lin family, but because the death of a prostitute is related to the face and honor of a family of officials and eunuchs like the Lin family!
The room was dark and dark, with only a few rays of sunlight seeping through the cracks in the windows on the wall.

This is a little-known small room in Biezhuang. It used to imprison tenants who did not pay rent, but as Steward Cui became the steward of Biezhuang, it gradually fell into disrepair.

"Bring me Qiuyue!"

Steward Cui's voice was cold, and Qiuyue was dragged over by the servant.

At this moment, although her hair was disheveled, she was still full of energy, struggling unceasingly, yelling grievances loudly.

Qingmei was resting in the room with her eyes closed on the soft pillow, her ears moved slightly - the maid who stayed in the room started to move.

Qingmei slightly raised her eyes, one maidservant in green shirt showed embarrassment, and the other maid also frowned.The two looked at each other, and they still walked from the green-shirted maid to the outer hall.

Not long after, there were thin conversations.

"Miss, she is already asleep. At this time... let's come back tomorrow."

"Nonsense! Qingmei rarely takes a nap, and it's better for us to be by her side at this time!"

——It was Cui Jing's voice.

Qing Mei sat up, Cui Jing said "we", which means he is not alone.Qingmei thought for a while, then called the maid who was guarding not far away, "Let them in."

The servant girl got the order and brought Cui Jing in.

Next to Cui Jing was a seven or eight-year-old girl doll.This doll looks ordinary, but those big eyes are beautiful and rare, as dazzling as the bright stars in the night sky.Qingmei guessed that she was Qian Jiao.

The maids served tea and snacks for Cui Jing and Qian Jiao, and then left the back room to guard outside.After what happened to Qiuyue, the maids in Biezhuang settled down a lot, and the etiquette in the big family has also been picked up.

Qian Jiao blinked her eyes, then burst out laughing, and sat directly next to Qingmei, patting her small mouth, "You scared me to death! Cui Jing said what you said as if he had stepped into the palace of the king of hell!" As he spoke, he glared at Cui Jing who was at the side.Cui Jing stuck out his tongue, pretending he didn't see it.

Qingmei smiled, but didn't reply.Qian Jiao knew that she was a boring gourd, so she didn't suspect it.

Qian Jiao took out a small cloth handkerchief from her sleeve, and folded it delicately.Qingmei looked at her curiously, she opened the cloth handkerchief layer by layer, and spread out the last peace talisman in the palm of her hand.

"Take it with you, and those ghosts and snakes will never come near you." Qian Jiao said, her big eyes brightened even more, "My grandmother gave it to me. I already have one, this one I’ll give it to you, it’s very clever!”

Qingmei was a little at a loss, Cui Jing said: "Just accept it! Things given by Qian Jiao can usually ward off evil spirits!"

"What did you say?" Qian Jiao heard the meaning of Cui Jing's words, and raised her tone, Cui Jing laughed and ran away quickly.

"Then...thank you." Qing Mei put away her things, she vaguely knew that Qian Jiao's purpose of coming here was not just to give away the peace talisman.Seven or eight-year-old children can't hide things on their faces, at this moment Qian Jiao shows some worry, and even some guilt, which makes Qingmei a little interested.

Qian Jiao pursed her lips slightly, seeing her appearance, Qingmei thought about it, and said to Cui Jing: "Cui Jing, you should go out for a while."

"Why?" He was the one who smuggled Qian Jiao out while Qian Jiao's mother was working in Bie Zhuang. Why did these two little girls tear down the bridge when they crossed the river!

Qingmei said: "Me and..." The voice changed, and she used this title that made her skin crawl, "I told Jiaojiao some little secrets between girls, do you still want to listen?"

Since Xiao Qingmei and Qian Jiao are good friends, how can they call her by name directly.Girls should have more intimate titles.Qingmei sighed in her heart - she had to slowly get used to the life of a normal person.

When Cui Jing heard this, he touched his nose: "Cut, how can I, a man, listen to your whispers, I'm going out, it won't be too long!" After finishing speaking, he walked away swaggeringly like an adult.

Qian Jiao looked at Qingmei gratefully, she didn't want Cui Jing to hear those words.Qingmei silently looked at Qian Jiao, whether girls in ancient times were a little precocious.He's only seven years old, but he already seems to be very sensible.Premature and sensible children are always distressing. As a mercenary, Qingmei likes children very much.Children are as pure and innocent as angels, and people in the mud always have a natural desire for pure things.

"I..." Qian Jiao adjusted her breathing and suddenly trembled.She lowered her head slightly, her hand was being gently held by Qingmei, an inexplicable peace of mind surged into her heart.

Qian Jiao let out a deep breath, "Qingmei..."

"Ok?"

"sorry."

Qingmei smiled lightly—a kid who has the courage to admit his mistakes, but what did Qian Jiao do to Xiao Qingmei?

"Snapped!"

A loud slap rang out in the interrogation room.

Mother Liu rushed towards Qiuyue like crazy, and the servant immediately pulled them away.

"You bitch, why are you slandering me!"

A handprint gradually appeared on Qiuyue's face, but she didn't care, and shouted at Cui Steward: "Cui Steward, Cui Steward, what I said is true! The first time Miss fell into the water was caused by Ms. Liu, she just fell into the water." She has a heart of snakes and scorpions, she is the one who wants to kill Miss!"
