Maid's Counterattack

Chapter 19
Zi Luo had already practiced the ability to see all directions and listen to all directions, so after breakfast Zi Luo easily noticed that Mr. Zhao took a small box in his sleeve and took it away.

"Zi Luo, Can Ruo, Su Die, any of you have seen the small box on my desk, it's the very small one, the jewelry box that the third wife gave me."

Fang Xin asked loudly.

Both Canruo and Sudie said they didn't see it, and Zi Luo also shook his head and said they didn't see it.

"It's really strange, did I put it somewhere else?"

Fang Xin muttered while flipping through the small drawers on the dressing table.

"Perhaps it fell into a corner."

Ziluo also pretended to help in the search.

"Forget it, I won't look for it anymore, and it's not a good-looking jewelry, so I don't want it."

Fang Xin bid farewell.

"Zi Luo, hurry up and have breakfast, and then accompany me to the small lake to feed the fish. I ate a lot this morning. Take a walk to help you digest your food."

Fang Xin looks happy today.

"Yes, ma'am."

Zi Luo hurriedly went back to the house and ate some casually, and brought a small bucket with fish food in it, and a square food box with teapots and cups in it.Fang Xin walked in front, shaking her fan, and Zi Luo followed closely carrying her things, passing through the grove, around the rockery, seeing butterflies flying in front of her eyes and then flying into the flowers and mingling with the flowers, not sure if it was a flower or a butterfly.

"Is it the beauty of people, the beauty of flowers, or the beauty of butterflies."

Fang Xin raised his hands and waved them in the air, and now those somewhat rough hands have been maintained soft and delicate.

"Each has its own beauty."

Zi Luo didn't know whether Fang Xin was talking to himself or asking her, so he had to answer briefly.

Fang Xin smiled and said nothing, suddenly saw someone approaching in the distance, it was the third son.

"Four mothers."

Although his face was full of disgust, he had to salute Fang Xin.

"Oh, it's the third son, you look very good today, did you find the peach blossom again somewhere!"

Fang Xin covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed.

"Si Niang was joking, Jun'er still has something to do, so I won't chat with Si Niang."

After finishing speaking, Fang Xin strode away without waiting for Fang Xin to speak.

"Hmph, do you know, I heard that the third son likes girls like Routong very much, oh, you don't seem to know who Routong is, she is the eldest son's wife, gentle and considerate, delicate and beautiful, he also had a girl before It's just that the third wife is dissatisfied with that woman, so she doesn't agree with the marriage, because of this, the third son and her mother had a big fight, the third wife is really a good fight."

As Fang Xin continued walking, he talked about the past of the third son as if telling a story.

Although Zi Luo felt it was not good to gossip behind others, he listened carefully.Listening to it, I arrived at the lake. There is a small pavilion in the middle of the winding corridor. In front of the pavilion is a pool of lake water. There are some lotus leaves in the middle of the lake. Small fish jump out of the lake from time to time. Another view.

Ziluo put the food box on the stone table in the middle of the pavilion, took out a small wooden box from the bucket, and handed it to Fang Xin who was leaning against the railing.

"Shuangyue, Ziluo, do you want to go with her to catch up on the old days?"

Fang Xin, who was feeding the fish, saw Shuangyue passing by and saluting her, looked at Ziluo and said.

"No ma'am."

Although Ziluo's body and feet couldn't help leaning towards Shuangyue, he still said this sentence.

Shuangyue glanced at Ziluo and hurried past Ziluo.

As noon approached, the sun was getting bigger and hotter, and Zi Luo was standing beside Fang Xin, fanning him.

"Okay, let's go back, I'm a little tired too."

After speaking, he threw down the last handful of fish food and got up to leave. Zi Luo hurriedly packed up his things and followed behind.

As soon as I got back to the house, there was a queue of people who delivered lunch and walked in.

"Madam, the master sent me a message."

At this time, a young servant walked in with a low waist.

"what's up?"

Fang Xin was washing his hands with water.

"Master said he won't be here tonight."

The servant's waist bent even lower.

"Oh, did you go to the eldest lady or the third lady?"

Fang Xin raised her eyebrows and shook the water off her hands vigorously.

"Little I don't know."

The boy looked a little nervous.

"I don't know? Then why don't you tell me what the third lady is doing recently?"

Fang Xin refused to let go, and threw the towel for wiping his hands forcefully on the boy's face. The frightened man turned pale and fell to his knees on the ground.

"Little one, I really don't know about it, I just heard that the third lady practiced a dance, she is as graceful as a butterfly, very beautiful."

The servant lowered his head, his voice was as soft as a mosquito.

"It's absolutely beautiful!"

Fang Xin repeated this sentence.

"No, no, the little one is wrong, the little one should be damned."

The man trembled, immediately raised his body slightly, and slapped himself.

"Okay, I understand, you go down."

Fang Xin glanced at Zi Luo, Zi Luo informed him, and gave the man some broken silver.

"If you are loyal to Madam, you will benefit in the future, and if you are against it, you also understand."

Ziluo said.

"Yes, yes, I understand, I will be loyal to my wife."

After saying that, he kowtowed and left in a hurry.

Fang Xin didn't lose his appetite because of the matter of the third wife, but ate more.After the meal, I started to embroider the purse again.Ziluo returned to the house and set the dishes, but she touched her chest and then secretly put her hands under the table. She lowered her head, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter. It turned out that she was reading a note, which was by the small lake. Shuangyue stuffed it in her hand when she walked past her.

The note reads: Ziluo, there is one thing I must tell you. I wrote this note and put it on my body. I will give it to you as long as I meet you. I heard from Zhui'er that before you came that day, The third lady was admiring the flowers in the courtyard, and suddenly heard two people talking outside, about Fang Xin giving you a box of precious skin care products, I think it must be Can Ruo and Su Die, you have to beware of them.

Although the words on this note are crooked, probably only Zi Luo can recognize it, and it was Zi Luo who taught her. Zi Luo's brother doesn't like to study, and Zi Luo often disguises herself as a man to attend classes for her brother.

After reading it, Ziluo found a copper basin and burned the note.She returned to the table and sat down like a puppet, picked up the chopsticks and put the rice in her mouth, maybe it was cold without knowing it.

She never thought that things would be like this, she thought it was the third lady who bought Su Die and Canruo, so it seems that she was wrong, she angrily reprimanded them that day, but she didn't expect that she was the fool, she and They had no grievances or enmity, but to frame her like this must be instigated by someone. Thinking of the person behind her, Zi Luo gritted his teeth with hatred.

"That's good, finally there is no need to be in a dilemma, there is no guilt, some just have a clear conscience."

Ziluo murmured.

Just as the boy said, Mr. Zhao did not come tonight, and he did not come for several nights afterwards. Fang Xin was not anxious. Drunk, some people also saw people carrying jewelry into the Third Lady's Courtyard every day.

It's just that no one mentions these in Yuexiuxuan, as if this place is isolated from the world, where people work at sunrise and live at sunset, and it's peaceful.

　Hope you all enjoy it, it's really good!
