Dare to set fire in the palace, and almost hurt the master, this crime is not light.
However, the people inside are so weak, I'm afraid it's not easy to tell them, so it's better to hide them.
"Steward, what should I do about the cotton-padded clothes. Right now, I can't delay any longer... cough cough... "
Bai Xiangxiu felt that the other party must not be able to hear what she was saying, because she couldn't hear it very well herself.
But the other party heard it clearly and said, "I'm afraid it's a bit difficult, I'll try my best to deal with it. Madam Xiu doesn't need to worry, just relax and recuperate."
"Well, it has to be as soon as possible. The weather is getting colder and colder. It takes a long time. I'm afraid someone will freeze."
"Yes."
She does have a good heart.
Long Shuting agreed and went out. He really tried his best. But now the larger embroidery workshops are very busy at this time, and they can't handle such a huge job at all.
It took Bai Xiangxiu two full days to raise her. Although she could speak, her throat was slightly hoarse. But Mammy Ye thought of one thing, that is, the prince and the old lady are about to arrive, should they write a letter to the family
"..." Bai Xiangxiu didn't know what to write, so she stood there in a daze with a pen.
Xiao Shi suggested from the side: "Before the lord left, you made him angry, why don't you..."
Bai Xiangxiu sighed and understood that if she offended her boss, she would always find a way to remedy it. Wouldn't it be miserable if he vented his anger when he came back
Endured forbearance, and finally had to admit defeat.
He picked up the pen and wrote one of the untitled poems. When we met, it was difficult to say goodbye.
These two sentences express her thoughts, that is, she misses him, and how sad she has been since he left.
I didn't write the following sentence, because it seemed too much, as if I couldn't live without him. Then, I added some information about the house.
But I didn't write about the fire or my injury.
This kind of thing, shouldn't let them worry! The most important thing is that she will at least wait until the cotton-padded clothes are dealt with.
After resting for a while, she felt that she should go and see the scene of the incident. At least you should see what else is available, preferably not to be completely destroyed, that is a loss.
Thinking like this, Xiaoshi and Baoqin accompany her, but as soon as she came out, she saw a girl kneeling on the ground and kowtow to her room.
"… "
I'm not a saint, how could I be worshipped
Baoqin smiled and said, "She's really on time, and she's here again."
"who is she?"
Bai Xiangxiu asked strangely.
"You saved her before, in the fire." Xiao Shi reminded.
It turned out to be her, no wonder she came here to worship.
"Uh, what's your name?"
Bai Xiangxiu walked over and asked, she didn't want her to worship like this again, it was awkward.
The girl looked up and saw Bai Xiangxiu. Her face was also injured, and there was a red burn scar on her forehead. It's not that big, but it really does affect the aesthetics.
She trembled in her heart, and her forehead touched the ground: "Mrs. Xiu, maid Xiaohuan, thank you for your life-saving grace. However, the maid hurt you, I am very sorry."
"Xiaohuan, right? You didn't hurt me. Get up and stop kneeling."
Bai Xiangxiu stretched out her hand, but the other party didn't get up, she just knelt in front of her and said.
"Mrs. Xiu, allow the slaves to stay by your side to serve you, even if you do some rough labor outside. The slaves have no parents or parents since they were young, and you are the only one in the world who treats slaves as human beings."
Bai Xiangxiu felt that this girl was a little too persistent, but she seemed unwilling to give in.
Since it's like this, let's stay, she doesn't lack this one here. Besides, she looked pitiful, and the burns on her face didn't seem to be completely healed.
"Okay, Xiaoshi, arrange for her to work in the Winter Garden!"
When Xiaohuan heard that, she knelt down and thanked her excitedly, making Bai Xiangxiu very embarrassed to pull her up.
"Don't be so polite, get up and heal your wounds before going to work! My Winter Garden is small, I'm afraid you'll be crowded with others."
It looks like he is only ten years old, about the same age as Xiao Shi.
Xiaohuan was very moved after hearing this and kept thanking her.
Bai Xiangxiu was a little embarrassed to be thanked by her, so she took Xiaoshi and Baoqin to the quilt room when she saw that they were gone. It's been burned to ashes there, but it's a little strange.
She stood there looking at the quilt, and actually started to be dumbfounded.
Xiao Shi asked, "Mrs. Xiu, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Xiangxiu pointed to the quilt and said, "It's weird."
Xiao Shi also looked at it carefully, and said, "What's wrong?" It was already burning badly. If it weren't for the master's vigilance, I'd be afraid that they would all die inside.
"This quilt room was originally a two-entry room. Everyone knows that there are padded clothes and so on. Naturally, there will be no fire in it. Therefore, it is most likely that an external source of fire caused the whole quilt room to burn, but now it seems to be the cleanest burning. It turned out to be the place where the quilt was placed in the first room, and that may be where the fire occurred."
Bai Xiangxiu analyzed while watching.
"I didn't expect Mrs. Xiu to know this, but she was right."
Long Shuting came over from behind and just heard what she said. Unexpectedly, the woman in the inner house is quite knowledgeable, and the analysis is very correct. The fire really started there.
"It's the chief steward."
Why did the chief executive come here
She is indeed a beauty, even if she is injured, she is still very beautiful. The most important thing is that he is not only beautiful, but also intelligent, no wonder the prince likes it.
"So, that means it's no accident?"
"Yes, but I'll check it out later. Please go back, Mrs. Xiu. Rest is important."
"What about the cotton coat?"
"I have already called someone to ask at home, and I'm still waiting for news."
"Well, it's up to you to investigate the fire!"
Bai Xiangxiu knew that there were some things that she couldn't cross hands with, even though she was very angry. Of course, it is very strange, why did he not offend anyone but someone wanted to set himself on fire
If this person can't be found, how will she survive in the palace
For her own survival, she must not let the person who harmed her continue to hide in the dark.
"Mrs. Xiu, who do you think wants to kill that Xiaohuan?"
Xiao Shi asked strangely while walking.
"what?"
Why kill Xiaohuan, shouldn't he kill himself
"Who else but her, do you want to kill you... No way!"
Xiao Shi was taken aback, she really didn't know who was so bold to kill Madam Xiu. Although she is a concubine, she can be regarded as the master of this palace, and she is also the favorite woman of the prince.
"She is a little girl who would want to kill her, and it took so much effort to make a plan. Besides, if you want to kill a girl, you don't need to take me on board. It's unreasonable."
If he wanted to kill a girl, he would change his plan when he found out that she was there. But that person didn't, so it proved that what he wanted to kill was himself.
