The girl who wears fast

Chapter 478 The Palace Lady Wants to Retire (4)

"I can't find it. It's in the northwest of my yard, not far away. It seems that it used to be the residence of an old aunt. It was abandoned when the old aunt was gone. What is the place called Hongmeiyuan..." Wen Shichu said .

"Red Plum Garden? I know this place." As soon as Qing Xing heard about Hongmei Garden, she knew where it was. The place had indeed been abandoned for a long time, and it was normal for Wen Shichu to find a pomegranate tree there.

"By the way, there will be less movement when you go." Wen Shichu smiled mysteriously again and reminded.

Qing Xing was confused, but after all she listened to Wen Shichu's words. When she went to Hongmeiyuan, she was really very careful and quiet.

Although I don't know why Wen Shichu insisted on her looking for the pomegranate tree at this time, but Qing Xing was ordered by Mrs. Hou to deliver fruit to Wen Shichu. It was originally a chance for her to go to Hongmeiyuan to find the pomegranate tree. It can prolong her leisure time longer, so she goes along with the flow.

When Qing Xing arrived at Hongmei Garden, she realized that the place was really desolate and extremely quiet, which made her a little scared, but when she thought of the pomegranate tree she hadn't found yet, she summoned up her courage again, after all, finding a pomegranate tree can make people feel better. She showed her face in front of Mrs. Hou...

It's just that the pomegranate tree didn't know where it grew. Qing Xing searched many places but couldn't find it. If I knew it earlier, I should have asked Wen Shichu in more detail... Qing Xing was a little annoyed.

Finally, she came to the corner of the backyard of Hongmei Garden, and suddenly her ears moved, as if she heard someone talking.

Could it be that other servants also found that pomegranate tree?Qing Xing became a little anxious immediately, this pomegranate is a fruit with auspicious omen, which symbolizes more children and more blessings, if she reports this discovery to Madam Hou, she will get a lot of rewards, she can't let others take the lead!
So she anxiously went to the place where someone was talking, but when she saw who was talking, she was stunned in shock, it was the young lady and a young man!

How could the eldest lady meet a foreigner in this remote place?After Qing Xing was shocked, thinking of this, she suddenly realized that the eldest lady had an affair with a man!Qing Xing was shocked and terrified when she saw such a shattering event, this is a scandal!
At this time, she also realized why Wen Shichu sent her to this place, what pomegranate tree?That must be a cover, in fact, Wen Shichu wanted her to find out about the private meeting between the eldest lady and her boyfriend, right?
Thinking of this, Qing Xing felt a little resentful when she heard that Shi Chu deliberately let her run into the scandal of the eldest lady. Isn't this embarrassing her as a servant?Should she pretend not to know, or tell Madam directly?
Qing Xing was extremely flustered, but she knew she couldn't go out and expose this scandal right now, so she hid quietly behind a bush and watched Li Minghui and Zhou Shaowen from hiding.

She recognized it. The man who had a private meeting with the young lady was actually the son of the cousin of the third sister-in-law of Wuyang Houshu. This relationship is extremely distant, but the third sister-in-law has a very good relationship with her cousin, and her cousin's family died Now, only Zhou Shaowen was left, and the third sister-in-law begged Wuyang Hou to bring her cousin's only son to the Hou's mansion, and let him study in the ethnology.

Unexpectedly, this would be to lure wolves into the house instead. Not only did Zhou Shaowen not appreciate the Hou Fu's training for him, but he also had an unruly intention and seduced the eldest lady.

Qing Xing is Mrs. Hou's eldest maid, so she naturally knows Zhou Shaowen. Now that it's him, Qing Xing can't pretend not to know about this. People, they are very lenient to these servants, Qing Xing can't just watch the eldest lady be deceived by this kind of man.

Qing Xing was so angry that she couldn't care about anything else, and hurried back to Madam Hou's main courtyard, her face was very ugly, and she said to Madam Hou with a serious face: "Madam, I have something important to report."

"What's the matter? By the way, does Aunt Wen like the fruits you sent?" Mrs. Hou asked.

"I like it...but this is not what this servant wants to talk about." Qing Xing said quickly, "It's very important, this servant can only tell you."

Seeing that Qing Xing was very serious, Mrs. Hou knew that she really had something important to do, so she waved her hand and let the other maids around her go down.

Seeing that everyone had left, Qing Xing walked up to Mrs. Hou, lowered her voice, and said to her quickly: "Ma'am, I just found out that Missy and Zhou Shaowen are having a private meeting in Hongmei Garden!"

"What?!" Madam Hou asked again as if she didn't hear her words clearly.

"The maidservant found out that the young miss and Zhou Shaowen were giving and receiving privately!" Qing Xing gritted her teeth and said, her clothes were soaked with sweat on her back. She knew that she might lose her life if she said this, but she bet on her wife's character, Mrs. Gambling has a good temperament and will not kill her to silence her. Instead, she will reward her, the hero who discovered the scandal of the eldest lady in advance and allowed the scandal to be covered up.

Qing Xing's words struck Mrs. Hou's head like a bolt from the blue, causing her head to buzz, as if she had lost her perception of the surrounding world. It took her a while to recover, and she stared at Qing Xing with an extremely ugly expression. Gritting his teeth, he said, "If you dare to slander the eldest lady, you know what the consequences will be!"

"Ma'am! I don't dare. I really saw the young miss and Zhou Shaowen's private meeting in Hongmeiyuan. Maybe they are still there right now! If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself..." Qing Xing With a trembling voice, he hurriedly explained.

In fact, Mrs. Hou has already believed Qing Xing's words. Qing Xing is her big maid, she has always been smart and stable, and she is also very honest. If it wasn't for the truth, she wouldn't have said it.

"Tell me more carefully..." Mrs. Hou said to Qing Xing with a livid face.

Qing Xing carefully told Mrs. Hou how she found out about this matter. Although Mrs. Hou was also worried that her daughter would be deceived, she knew that this matter could not be rushed. Handle it properly, and absolutely not leak any information, otherwise, the girls of Wuyang Hou's family, whether they are married or not, will suffer.

"You said, it was Aunt Wen who told you that there was a pomegranate tree in Hongmei Garden and asked you to go and see it right away?" Mrs. Hou grasped the point keenly.

"Yes, this servant suspects that Aunt Wen also knew about the eldest lady and Zhou Shaowen, so she sent this servant to Hongmei Garden on purpose so that this servant can find out about this and come back to report to Madam." Qing Xing said her guess, and suddenly realized , "No wonder Aunt Wen reminded me to look for it quietly before I went, and don't make a big noise. Isn't it because I'm afraid that I will alarm the eldest lady and the others?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Hou sighed in her heart, knowing that Wen Shichu had revealed her daughter's affairs to herself on purpose, and she had received her favor, so she could only repay her later.
