world wife

Chapter 20
Lian Xiyu opened his eyes, full of faint sarcasm
"Let's eat." Lian Xiyu stood up and prepared to go out.

"But the food is already cold." After all, Hongluo stood up, looking at even Xiyu's eyes full of guilt.

Lian Xiyu chuckled

"It's okay, just let Dongzhu go to warm it up."

Hongluo stepped back, but her eyes were deep in thought, this young mistress seemed to have no vigor.

After a simple dinner, I went back to my room to freshen up.
"You all go down and rest, Hongluo will stay and untie the bun for me." Lian Xiyu ordered, Dongzhu was taken aback for a moment, and wanted to say something again, but thinking about what Xiulan said in the morning, he abruptly He swallowed the words again.

Lian Xiyu sat in front of the dressing table, looking at Hongluo standing behind her in the bronze mirror,

"They're all gone, so let's say something." Just then, he kept looking at Hongluo who was preoccupied, and it seemed that he wanted to say something about Cai's affairs.

Hongluo pursed her lips tightly
"Young Mistress, I originally planned to come to your place today, but met my aunt on the way, and my aunt suddenly fainted for some reason, so I went to my aunt's yard and failed to send someone to tell you. "

Lian Xiyu looked at Hongluo's complexion reflected in the bronze mirror, and raised the corners of her mouth, since Zhao Lingyi didn't send someone to say how did you know, and she remembered that Hongluo knew martial arts, Hongluo's identity I'm afraid it's not just a simple maid.

"So that's the case." Lian Xiyu took off the hairpin on her head, and then Hongluo started to untie Lian Xiyu's hair again.

Hongluo looked at Lian Xiyu nervously, at first she thought she was going to be angry, but found that she didn't say anything until the hair was removed.

"Young Mistress?" Hong Luo looked at Lian Xiyu, who was about to go to bed and rested, and asked in confusion.

"Don't you want to know why my aunt fainted?"

Lian Xiyu turned around and looked at Hongluo
"Whatever you want, what if you don't want to, after all, I will know tomorrow." If something really happened, according to the character of those women in Zhao Lingyi, they would definitely come to me tomorrow and talk about it, the third night of the wedding The husband then ran to spend the night in the concubine's room, who wouldn't take it as a joke when it got out, wouldn't they rush to present it to the protagonist in their joke tomorrow?

Looking at the smile on Lian Xiyu's mouth, Hongluo was stunned, this young mistress was not jealous at all.

"Go down and rest, I won't think about it too early tomorrow, understand?"

Hongluo nodded, young mistress didn't want those girls to come and disturb her too early, seeing Lian Xiyu resting, Hongluo also left, but after Hongluo left, Xiulan walked in.

"Young Mistress, the maid who cleaned the yard said that she was with Miss Yueyan when she saw my aunt returning to the yard." Xiulan stood respectfully in front of the bed, the candles in the room had already been blown out, The cold moonlight shone in from outside, looking at Lian Xiyu's face seemed to be even colder and paler, if she didn't know that Lian Xiyu was a real living person, she would definitely think that she saw a ghost.

"I see, you go down and rest." Lian Xiyu's eyes never opened, and he responded lightly.

Xiulan bowed, turned around and exited the room. After Xiulan turned around, Lian Xiyu looked at her back and smiled, so the people behind her must believe that they have trusted Xiulan.

Xiulan closed the door and looked around carefully. There was no one there. Then she went back to the room and looked at Dongzhu who was sleeping in a daze.

"Dongzhu, I'll go out for a while, there is a little sister from the past who wants to talk, you watch, if you have something to do with the young mistress, you can go and serve her."

Dongzhu got up and nodded, watching Xiulan leave, then fell down again in a daze.

Xiulan lifted the hem of her skirt, carefully looked left and right, and then left carefully. The woman guarding the gate in front of the yard went out early today to secretly drink with other women, Xiulan pulled away door, looked around vigilantly again, and then left.

Xiulan ran all the way to the deeper courtyard, crossed a stone bridge, and then entered the depths of the bamboo forest. There was a secluded and secluded courtyard there, but bright lanterns were lit along the road, so that people could not sneak into it. near.

Lian Xiyu stood sideways in a secluded place, watched Xiulan say a few words to a woman who suddenly appeared, and then entered the depths of the bamboo forest, and then raised the corners of her mouth in satisfaction. The person is her!

Xiulan went in for less than half an hour, and when she came out, she still observed her surroundings vigilantly, and hurried back to her yard when she didn't notice anything unusual.

Seeing Dongzhu lying soundly asleep on the bed, he shook his head helplessly, covered her with the quilt, and then tiptoed back to Lian Xiyu's room, seeing that she was still the same as when he left, so he was relieved Withdrew and rested.

As soon as the door was closed, Lian Xiyu's eyes opened. If she remembered correctly, there was only one person living in such a secluded place, and that was the old lady of Rongguo Mansion, who had never been seen since the old lady passed away. However, even Zhao Lingyi, the eldest grandson, never got married in it.But now she has sent someone by her side, and she also believes that the old lady will not harm her eldest grandson, but what the old lady's real purpose is remains to be discussed.

The night slowly sinks, and the other end is also sleepless.

"She wasn't angry?" Zhao Lingyi sat on the chair, tapped his fingers on the desk, with a smile on his lips.

"My subordinates don't know, but the young mistress seems to be really generous." Hong Luo replied standing in front of the desk.

"Great?" Zhao Lingyi almost laughed out loud. She may not be a very generous person, but it's very interesting.

"Did she say anything else?" Zhao Lingyi asked with interest.

"I didn't say anything." Hongluo looked at Zhao Lingyi strangely, when did the master have time to take care of this?

Zhao Lingyi is too lazy to explain

"Order, keep an eye on her, and report to me every word and deed." If such a woman is a spy, he will definitely not let it go, but if it can be used by him, it is not bad.

"Yes." Hongluo nodded, turned around and backed away.As soon as Hongluo left, someone hurried in

"Master, there's a commotion over there again." The man looked at Zhao Lingyi with a frown and said.

Zhao Lingyi looked at the medicine bottle in his hand with a smile

"Then let's give it a heavier dose. It's boring anyway. Don't those people want to see my jokes? Let them watch as much as they want this time."

"Yes." The man remained expressionless, took the order, turned around and left.

After everyone left, Zhao Lingyi murmured to himself
"Great? What would happen if you weren't generous?" Smiling, she got up, opened the door and walked towards the half-acre garden.
