Chapter 57
Seeing Chu Yun's figure disappear from her sight, Chu Ruoying turned around and glanced at Mrs. Ye, then looked at Chu Lie, saluted and said softly, "Father, Aunt Yun is fine now. With my father and wife here, Yinger will leave first."

Chu Lie nodded with a sullen face. Then Chu Ruoying took her three girls and left Yuheyuan. Walking on the road, Chu Ruoying's expression was always a little gloomy. After being wronged, he was in a bad mood, and he didn't dare to say much on the road.

Standing by the side and supporting Chu Ruoying, Li Xia understood in her heart that it was because of another matter.

After returning to Shengchu Courtyard, Lixia immediately sent someone to boil hot water, and Chu Ruoying sat on the soft bed in the room, looking into the distance with vague eyes.

Madam Ye wanted to harm Aunt Yun's child. She didn't know about it on the first day. She didn't want the family property and title of the Chu family, so whether the child died or lived didn't affect her in the slightest. However, he could use this incident to bring down Mrs. Ye, so this time he knew that Mrs. Ye had taken the medicine, but he didn't stop him.

After all, she was an innocent child, and if she wanted to kill a child with her own hands, she still couldn't do it.

While speaking, the hot water had already been boiled, Chu Ruoying dismissed the servants, took off her dress, soaked herself in the hot water, stared at the hot air in front of her, and was dazed, finished washing Afterwards, after changing her dress, she walked to the soft couch and sat down, picked up the handkerchief that was placed aside, and wiped her hair carefully.

In a blink of an eye, it was evening and dusk. Chu Ruoying was lying on the floppy bed looking at the book, when there were faint voices coming from outside the window, words such as "Aunt Qin" and "Go back to her mother's house" could be faintly heard.

"Lixia!" Chu Ruoying put down the book in her hand, frowned slightly, and shouted outside.

Li Xia walked into the room in response, thinking that Chu Ruoying was upset when she heard the small voice of the servant girl outside, she lowered her head and said, "Your maidservant, go and tell them to shut up immediately."

"No need." Chu Ruoying's eyes darkened slightly, and she said calmly, "Tell me what they said."

This Aunt Qin, after she returned to the mansion, did not provoke her as much as Aunt Yun, nor did she come to take refuge in her like Aunt Pei, and has been living in the mansion in obscurity. Her father loved her very much. Such a person, who has lived quietly in the mansion for so long, is definitely not a simple person.

Yesterday, Aunt Qin went to Dangui Garden and asked Mrs. Ye to come back home during the period, but she was directly rejected. Aunt Qin was not reconciled, so she ran into Chu Lie on the road. Although Aunt Qin rarely showed up on weekdays, But she is also a rare beauty, and more importantly, she is two points similar to Chu Ruoying's mother, Gu Lingjuan.

Chu Ruoying directly mentioned her mother's memorial day in the hall yesterday, which made Chu Lie feel guilty. After seeing Aunt Qin, she naturally didn't hold back, and Aunt Qin also half-pushed and followed Chu Lie. Aunt Qin made her own request, and Chu Lie naturally agreed.

It's just that this angered Mrs. Ye. On New Year's Eve, according to the rules, Chu Lie should be with his first wife. Since Chu Ruoying's mother passed away, Chu Lie didn't have sex with anyone on New Year's Eve. Mrs. Ye has always been bitter Yu Huai, however, also knew the importance of Gu Lingjuan in his heart, so he didn't dare to speak rashly, but now Aunt Qin was favored that night, how could Madam Ye bear it.

After Mrs. Ye found out about this, she began to point out Aunt Qin's faults everywhere. Aunt Qin endured everything in order to return to her mother's house, and did not complain in front of Chu Lie at all.

"Okay, you go down." After listening carefully, Chu Ruoying smiled lightly, and let Li Xia leave the room, while she began to meditate.

As far as she knows, Aunt Qin is just a concubine of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. She was not favored at home before, and after she came to the Chu Mansion, she also cared about her own status and did not dare to compete with Mrs. Ye for favor. She was cautious in the Chu Mansion. It is really strange that he is alive, but now he is willing to fight against Mrs. Ye in order to return to her mother's house.

Chu Ruoying stood up in deep thought, walked to the desk and gently opened the window in front of her, and whispered to the dark corner, "Mo Yan!"

"What's your order?" Mo Yan immediately appeared in front of Chu Ruoying when he heard the voice, half kneeling down, and asked in a deep voice.

"Go and find out who else is Aunt Qin in the Qin residence?" Chu Ruoying looked at him indifferently and said in a low voice.

Mo Yan nodded immediately, looked up to see that Chu Ruoying had no other orders, and then dodged back to the dark place again.

After watching Mo Yan leave, Chu Ruoying closed the window again and returned to the couch. Not long after, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and many guards came towards here with torches in their hands.

Madam Ye rushed straight into Chu Ruoying's room, saw Chu Ruoying sitting alone on the soft couch, her expression changed slightly, she stepped forward and asked, "Is Yinger alone?"

Chu Ruoying slightly raised her eyebrows, put down the book in her hand, stood up, and said calmly, "Ma'am, what do you mean, is there someone else in Yinger's room?"

Mrs. Ye saw that Chu Ruoying's expression was calm and nothing unusual, she frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Just now a servant reported that a thief broke into Sheng Junior Courtyard. Mother is worried about your safety, so she came here to see."

"Then thank you mother for your concern." Chu Ruoying was taken aback when she heard that, then smiled gently and walked towards Madam Ye.

Madam Ye looked at Chu Ruoying's smiling expression and didn't understand what she meant for a while, so she waved to the people behind her and said, "Go and search."

"Wait!" An indifferent voice rang out in Sheng Junior Courtyard, and the guards stopped involuntarily. Chu Ruoying looked deeply at the group of guards who were about to rush into her boudoir, and said coldly: "My dignified Chu family Missy's boudoir, in fact, you guards can break into it!"

Madam Ye's face froze when she heard this, and when she came here, she only thought about what would happen to Chu Ruoying if she found other people in her courtyard, but she forgot that Chu Ruoying was the most eloquent girl, and that she was the most eloquent girl in the middle of the night. It was really inappropriate for the guards to break into the Missy's room, and if it got out, it would ruin the Chu family's reputation, but how could Madam Ye be reconciled to this point.

"Ying'er, act urgently. If the thief really breaks into the Sheng Junior Court, it will be bad for you." Mrs. Ye thought about it, and persuaded her as if she was concerned.

Chu Ruoying looked at the vicious look in Madam Ye's eyes, and sneered in her heart, but her expression didn't show anything, and she said calmly, "Then what if there are no culprits in my Sheng Junior Court?"

Madam Ye knew that Chu Ruoying was not so persistent when she heard the words, and she had a little more joy on her face, and said, "It's better not to have thieves, and mother can rest assured of Ying'er's safety."

"Then follow Madam's words." Chu Ruoying said indifferently, her eyes drooping slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Only then did Madam Ye wave to the guards again, and the guards dispersed into the courtyard and began to search, and after a while, they all came out, cupped their hands at Madam Ye and said, "Madam Qi, there are no other guards in the courtyard. people."

Madam Ye was startled, and looked at Chu Ruoying suspiciously. Seeing that her face was normal, her doubts became even more serious. The news that came was clearly correct, so why didn't she say, "Have you checked carefully?"

The guards looked at each other a few times, and then replied with certainty: "There is really no one else in this courtyard!"

Madam Ye was unwilling to reconcile, and an angry look flashed across her face very quickly, suppressing the anger in her heart, she gritted her teeth and said, "Maybe the thief has gone to another yard, mother will look for it later."

Chu Ruoying stood calmly in front of the door, her long hair was not tied up, blowing in the wind, Chu Ruoying gently brushed the broken hair on her face behind her ears, and said, "Then madam, be careful, Now the second sister is probably resting, if a thief breaks into the second sister's yard, it will definitely be bad for the second sister, Madam, go and have a look."

Mrs. Ye had received the news that she heard Chu Ruoying talking to the man, so she came to Sheng Junior Courtyard to check on the excuse of a thief breaking in, but she couldn't find anything. The anger in my heart became even worse when I heard these words, I secretly clenched my hand hidden in my sleeve, and said in a deep voice: "It's natural, mother will go and have a look."

Chu Ruoying would not believe her hypocritical words, and said with a faint smile: "If you escape in my courtyard, the thief's martial arts must be extremely high. Yinger is really worried about Madam's safety, why not let Yinger go with Madam alone?" .”

"Who is it?" Mrs. Ye was taken aback, and Chu Ruoying, who turned around to look at her, asked with some doubts.

"Did Madam forget? The secret guard that Prince Jin stayed by Yinger's side?" Chu Ruoying's eyes were clear, she looked at Madam Ye with a slight smile, and said softly, "Mo Yan."

"Subordinates are here!"

"Since there are thieves in the Chu residence, you can go with my wife for me, so that I can rest assured." Chu Ruoying looked at the man in black in front of her, her lips curled slightly, her tone was full of concern Said.

Before Mo Yan could speak, Madam Ye shouted anxiously, "No need!"

There are so many things to do in the past few days, Madam Ye has forgotten Mo Yan, looking at Mo Yan who is dressed in black and full of evil spirits, she can't help but regret in her heart, with such a person around, how could Sheng Junior Court break into the thieves, I still need to catch it myself. If I let him follow me now, it will definitely be bad.

"Mother appreciates Ying'er's kindness. It's getting late, and Ying'er should rest. If he is allowed to follow her mother, if the thief comes back again, it will be bad for Ying'er." Madam Ye hated secretly. , but the words of the book were still gentle, "Mother will go to look elsewhere, Yinger don't worry."

As soon as the words fell, Madam Ye hurried out of Sheng Junior Courtyard with the guards.

Chu Ruoying stood at the same place and watched Madam Ye leaving in a hurry, the smile on her lips grew stronger, she turned her head to Mo Yan and said, "Go and set fire in Chu Xiner's courtyard, and you will be killed soon." Others found out and stole all of Chu Xiner's money."

Mo Yan's face froze, stealing money, this matter
Seeing that Mo Yan's face was not very good-looking, Chu Ruoying raised her eyebrows slightly, and said lightly, "You don't want to do it?"

"Your subordinate will go right away." Mo Yan raised his head and saw the faint threat in Chu Ruoying's eyes, he couldn't help but feel a shudder, and hurriedly dodged towards Chu Xin'er's courtyard.

Only then did Chu Ruoying nodded in satisfaction, that's right, since Madam took a lot of trouble to perform a scene where a thief breaks in, how could I not continue to act, to complete the scene?It's just that she doesn't know what Madam Ye's face will be when she sees that Chu Xiner's courtyard is on fire and her money has been stolen.

Chu Ruoying's lips curled slightly, she turned around and walked into the room slowly.
