The Cultivation of Concubine

Chapter 58 Protecting the Shortcomings (3)
Xiao Heng knew that his mother had been thinking about his marriage. In fact...if it wasn't for that, his marriage wouldn't be delayed until now.Mr. Han has his "Once upon a time", so does he, and this ocean is not the past, but the present.

The mother and son were talking, and the atmosphere was a little stiff.

Lan Shi was about to make a fool of herself, but she saw Fang Zhou walking in.Fang Zhou bowed his knees to Lan Shi and Xiao Heng, and said, "Here comes Zhu Sheng, the servant next to Shizi."

Xiao Heng knew that there was no important matter, Zhu Sheng would not come here for no reason, so he said to Fang Zhou: "Let him in."

Only then did Fangzhou go outside and let Zhusheng in.

Zhu Sheng is a steady and considerate servant, who has served Xiao Heng's side for many years, and is regarded as Xiao Heng's confidant.When he came in, he saluted Lan Shi first, and then he leaned into Xiao Heng's ear and whispered something.

Lan's didn't know what was going on, but his son's expression immediately changed after hearing this.

Xiao Heng put down the chess pieces, cupped his hands at Lan's, and said: "Mother, my son has something to do today, so let's go first. I will play chess with my mother some other day."

After finishing speaking, he strode out of Qinglanju.

Xiao Heng hurried to A Jiao's servant's room.

Once inside, Ruyi Linglong and the others in the room saluted.

Ajiao also bowed his knees respectfully, but didn't dare to raise his head.

Ruyi hurriedly said: "This servant girl didn't want to disturb the son, but this matter is so important that the servant dare not make decisions at will." After all, Ajiao is the son's personal maid.With that said, he gave Xiao Heng the pawn ticket in his hand.Although he didn't speak, this pawn ticket is enough to explain the matter.

Linglong, who was at the side, secretly raised her eyes to look at Shi Ziye.

She looked at his tall and majestic figure, her heart moved secretly, and she always felt that she should say something, so she said: "Master Ajiao, this servant has always worked with Sister Ajiao, and she thinks Sister Ajiao is a safe person, but I don't think she would do such a thing today..." She said while secretly watching Shizi's face, seeing Shizi's brow frowning instantly, she felt a little happier in her heart.

She knew that how angry Shi Ziye was at this moment, Ajiao's punishment would be severe later.

It was just what she wanted.Linglong secretly laughed in her heart.

Ajiao didn't dare to look at Shizi's face, but still couldn't help raising her head, just looking at Shizi looking down at the pawn ticket, her ears turned red, her face was burning hot, and her heart was full of shame.

The hands in Ah Jiao's sleeves were clenched tightly, and her heart was in her throat.

For a moment there was no sound in the room.

After a while, Xiao Heng raised his eyes to look at Linglong beside Ruyi.

Linglong didn't expect the elder son to look at her, her face turned red for a while, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but bend, but the next moment she heard the elder son say to herself: "Go down and get the board."

As soon as these words fell, not only Linglong's face changed, but even Ruyi Jinse and the others were taken aback.

Where is Linglong convinced?

He hurriedly said: "My lord, Ajiao did such a nasty thing, is my lord going to protect her?"

She dared to speak to Shi Ziye in such a tone, Linglong was going to die.Ruyi thought to herself, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe.

After a long while, I heard Shizi say calmly: "These jewelry... I gave her."
