"Chunhua, are you and Wan Dong working as double agents under Madam? Do you get double wages for doing this? But if you are discovered doing this, how dangerous it would be. Why don't you want to go to Madam? Around you?"
Every one of Lianying's questions poked Chunhua's lungs without concealment. If he hadn't spent some time with Lianying during this period, he would have known that she had such an open-mouthed temperament.
Chunhua was afraid that he would have to fall out with her on the spot.
But even though he knew she meant no harm, Chunhua didn't look good.
Anyway, the person is already Madam's, and she has obtained Lianying's handle, so she naturally does not need to continue to play that hypocritical drama.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. From now on, you can do whatever the lady asks you to do. Don't think about those things that you have and don't have all day long." @
Chunhua's expression suddenly changed, and Lianying was obviously at a loss. "Chunhua, did I say something wrong? I have no other intention. I just want to follow you and know what I can do."
After hearing Lianying's wise words, Chunhua turned around and said, "Are you sincere?"
Lianying nodded naturally, "Of course! After all, I rely on your help to get where I am today."
Chunhua sneered, and suddenly took out a pair of scissors from the sewing frame on the side, "Then I ask you to kill your good sister Qi Lian, are you willing?"
Lianying naturally refused to accept the scissors. After all, although she hated Jiang Nianjiao, she still had deep feelings for Qi Lian.
Chunhua was not surprised to see that Lianying did not take the scissors. After all, they had been sisters for many years. If she really took the scissors at this moment, Chunhua would probably wonder if Lianying had ulterior motives.
But she still laughed and said, "Look at you, you said that you would dare to do anything to leave Qinglan Courtyard. I just asked you to do something bold, but you don't dare."
As she spoke, she just put the scissors back.
Lianying murmured, "Sister Qilian didn't do anything wrong."
Chunhua's real purpose was naturally not this. After all, she really asked Lianying to kill people. With her intelligence, she was afraid that the person would be caught just after the killing, and she would inevitably be affected by that time.
She only said, "Okay, I don't really want your sister Qilian's life. I just want you to help persuade your sister Qilian. Now that she has gone to the outer courtyard, stop thinking about settling the past." It's an old account. It's impossible for her to get those account books! I'm showing mercy to her. If she continues to investigate, don't blame me for being rude. "
Chunhua's harsh words obviously shocked Lianying, and she calmed down for a while.
But she still didn't ask any more questions and just muttered yes.
It was past noon at this time, and Jiang Nianjiao, who had been serving Jiang Nianjiao in late winter, was ready to come back and take a nap after taking a lunch break.
When she suddenly entered the yard, she saw that Chunhua, who used to pretend to be a close sister in front of Lianying, was actually saying harsh words, while the ignorant Lianying was still acting like a little sheep in front of her.
She knew that Chunhua had lured him to Yu Se.
However, this Lianying has always been deeply prejudiced against herself.
Therefore, when Late Winter met Lianying, he only said with a bit of ridicule, "Chunhua, why are you so fierce? Aren't you afraid of scaring the little Lianying away?"
Chunhua just glared at her, "You should say less. By the way, what did the eldest lady and Aunt Li say today? If there is any inappropriate news, remember to tell me in time."
Late winter said impatiently, "Okay, okay, I got it."
After saying this, she was ready to run away.
After all, although she does listen to Chunhua on weekdays, and Chunhua does have more brains than her, most of the time, she still keeps Chunhua at a distance.
I don’t know what Chunhua taught Lianying after that, but in late winter she fell asleep with only the sounds outside the courtyard.
After taking a short nap, late winter just stretched out comfortably on the couch.
She was just about to get up when she saw Lingying, who was outside the courtyard, also entered the house at some point.
And when she saw her waking up, Lianying actually poured a glass of water over her. She smiled at herself with extra sincerity, "Sister Late Winter, you're awake. Are you thirsty? Do you want a glass of water?"
Late winter only rubbed his eyes in confusion at first, thinking that he was still dreaming, and then looked at it suspiciously.
The clear tea in the purple clay cup and the strange expression on Lian Ying's face.
Is this the sun rising from the west?
Could this Lianying put poison in the tea?
Lingying didn't seem to know what she was thinking, so she took the initiative to introduce herself to her, "Sister Late Winter, we are all in the same boat now. I misunderstood you in the past, and I hope you don't care about me in the future." Just mess with you."
After hearing this, Lianying finally understood the situation.
"Chunhua asked you to come here?" Wan Dong asked dissatisfied.
Lianying nodded obediently, and then added, "Chunhua thinks I can learn more from sister Wan Dong, so that I can suffer less in the future."
"It hurts to kneel on the floor. Sister Wan Dong, please help me." This Lianying really knows how to act according to the circumstances, and now she can actually be humble to the person she has the most prejudice against.
Although late winter hated Chunhua's behavior of throwing people at her who she didn't want to deal with, she was still very happy to be able to show off her senior's reputation.
So she just said with a serious face, "Since it's Chunhua's wish, I'll teach you. You can put on my shoes first."
After saying this, Wandong just stretched his feet forward and signaled Lingying to put on his shoes.
Lingying's face was visibly distorted, but she finally endured it.
She half-crouched in front of the couch and put on embroidered shoes for late winter.
At the same time, she could only be thankful that this late winter was relatively clean on weekdays, so her shoes and feet didn't smell much.
Seeing that Lingying had actually put on her own shoes, Late Winter felt indescribably proud.
After all, this was the person who used to serve Concubine Yuxian, but now she was reduced to putting on her own shoes. How could she feel dissatisfied at this time?
"Sister Late Winter, put on your shoes." After putting on her shoes, Lianying only raised her head to remind her.
Late Winter was already interested in teasing Lianying, but now he was even more unceremonious when he ordered Lianying around: "I've put on my shoes, won't you bring me some clothes?"
"Did I say you didn't wash your hands before touching your shoes?"
Late Winter obviously treated Lianying as a second-class maid, but Lianying actually tolerated this.
This means that Chunhua didn't know that Wan Dong was doing such stupid things. If she knew that the maid she and Yu Se had worked so hard to trick was being used as a foot-washing maid by Wan Dong, she would probably scold Wan Dong for being brainless.
However, this late winter has a mean temperament, but if he acts according to her wishes, she will be easier to fool than Chunhua Yuse.
Lianying seemed to be used to this, and she was particularly attentive to Late Winter. Soon, although Late Winter no longer instigated her to do the work of serving others, she would still ask Lingying to run errands for her from time to time.
"Lianying, later on you go to the kitchen to get me a pot of wine to keep warm, and remember to ask for some food to go with the wine. I'll wait on the young lady here and drink it after she falls asleep." It's already time to go to sleep today, and in late winter only When Lingying and several others were about to leave first, they suddenly gave instructions.
While speaking, she also handed the key to her house to Lingying.
Lianying took the key smoothly and went to the kitchen to beg for a drink.
But when they arrived at Chunhua and Late Winter's house, it was clearly pitch black.
Unexpectedly, Chunhua didn't reply today. She thought of Sister Qi Lian's accounting problem.
She couldn't help but have some thoughts in her mind.
I have been attracted by Yu Se for more than ten days. I don't know if Yu Se doesn't trust her or if Chunhua feels that she has no ability.
During this period of time, apart from enduring the hardships of that night, she actually had no tasks assigned to her.
Thinking about this, Lingying felt even more unhappy, and since today was the right time and place, she naturally did not miss the opportunity to rummage through the account books in their room.
But she didn't want to think about it. Liu Yun and other secret guards who were good at finding out information had visited this place several times. They looked through it for a long time but couldn't find the account book. How could she find it in her impromptu search today? What clues, when she was about to restore the bed and quilt that she had messed up.
Suddenly a voice came from behind, "What are you doing?"
Lianying was already guilty of being a thief, and she felt even more guilty after hearing these words.
Why do all these people like to be the backbone?
ah.
Lianying turned around with a guilty conscience. Seeing that the person coming was late winter, she felt a little calmer.
She said nonchalantly, "It's getting late now. I saw that my sister would go to sleep after a while after drinking, so I thought of spreading the bedding for you."
Late Winter did not doubt her, and even boasted and praised her, "You are quite attentive. I look at you much more pleasingly than before."
After saying this, she pulled Lianying out again, "Let's go! I'm very happy today. You can have a drink with your sister first."
Lingying was originally going to refuse, but thinking about the ledger with nothing gained, she became more hopeful.
After the two of them sat down at the table, Lingying suggested that it was pointless just to drink, so it was better to go through the drinking order.
Late winter naturally agreed, but she was really very lucky. She lost all the drinking orders, and the loser had to drink as a penalty. In the end, she originally planned to just drink one or two cups and be done with it. As a result, all the bottle of wine was consumed.
People who drink too much wine will inevitably talk nonsense, and with Lianying's careful guidance, she was able to get some clues out of the account book that Liuyun and the female secret guards had not found.
"What account book? How do we have such ability? We don't dare to do this kind of thing without Madam's instruction. And don't look at us working hard here. In fact, what we get is just a small profit. The real big boss is They are all being manipulated in the Garden of Thoughts!"
"Hiccup! Let me tell you, don't think that this mistress is really good. Have you ever seen any mistress who can calculate the money of an orphan? And if the master hadn't arranged a better marriage for the second young lady this time, The mistress also wants to find a marriage for the second young lady that can bring in money. From what I can see, this mistress is really obsessed with money. She would not dare to spend a lot of money even if she looks at her on weekdays. I really don’t know what she is doing with all this money.”
