"I just returned to the East Courtyard, and I'm accompanied by Miss Qingque."
The maid who answered was from Wu's family. Although she wasn't serving in Lu Jinxi's room, she was still competent.
Listening to this, Lu Jinxi walked quickly across the open space and turned towards the East Courtyard.
She was actually not familiar with the road in the General's Mansion, but she had walked through it when she left the mansion today. With her mind, she could barely find the direction.
"Have you figured out the cause and effect?"
"Ms. Qingque said that she would ask this when she knew you were coming back, and she had already inquired and told the old slave to report."
Friday's family followed Lu Jinxi's side, talking as they walked.
"Things come out after noon."
"My brother was playing chess with Luo Er Gongzi, and the little book boy went out to serve tea. When they came back, they didn't know why they fought."
"Second Master Luo, the old doctor Zhang from Huishengtang saw it and said it was fine, but the wound was a little deeper, and it was scratched by a broken chessboard."
"The doctor has already seen the wounds on my brother's body. They are just scratched skin injuries. But no matter what Miss Qingque asked, he wouldn't say the reason, he just said he was right."
If the egret is sweet and silly, then the blue sparrow is a stable and quiet one.
The egret has a clear mind and sometimes has fantastic ideas, but lacks stability; the blue sparrow is just the opposite. The great egret is two years old and has a clear mind and is a little more thoughtful in handling things.
Of course, the sooner Lu Jinxi knew about the situation in the mansion, the better, so he called the family of Friday.
only…
Lu Jinxi frowned slightly: "Why did you fight, brother Chi refused to say, what about the second son of Luo?"
Friday's family shook his head: "I have already inquired about it, and it is the same as the boring gourd, and I refuse to say a word."
"That's surprising."
Lu Jinxi was worried, and had a suspicion.
She had never met Xue Chi, but when she was ill, she heard that this was a little bully.
Xue Chi refused to say, it was normal.
But the second son of Luo of the British government, Zilai is very well-behaved and sensible. If such a big thing happened, he shouldn't be unable to ask anything.
"Second grandma, what's wrong here?"
Seeing that she didn't speak on Friday, the family couldn't help but ask a question.
"Go back and see to find out."
Lu Jinxi waved his hand and instructed the egret beside him.
"Egret, Guishou Zhang should be still in the British government at the moment, stop me first, and then show Brother Chi later."
"Yes."
Egret also thought so in his heart, after all, such a strange doctor as Guishou Zhang rarely takes a shot.
Jin Gui, the second son of the British government, is not made of clay.
After listening to Lu Jinxi's instructions, she was a little surprised, and immediately responded and went to the British government.
The British Palace is next to the General's Palace, and the two are separated by a wall.
Not long ago, there were many children in the government's government. The British government was preparing to move the children to study, and invited craftsmen to come to a given place.
It should be spacious, elegant, secluded, less crowded, and safe.
Looking left and right, there is no suitable place.
After all, the craftsmen are still smart. When I think of the layout of this piece, they are all similar. The General's House next to the wall has a small garden on the wall. If it can be combined with the small garden on the side of the Guogong's house, the place is just right.
It's just that the two mansions were awarded by the imperial court, and it was not easy to move.
The British father thought about it again and again, and remembered that Xue Chi, the baby of the Xue family, was at the age of Kaimeng, and he should also ask his husband to go to school.
So, he simply sent a message to the general's house, wanting to demolish the wall and garden, and set up a school together, let the children of the two families go to the school to study, and the husband also invited the two families together.
The general's mansion thought that the small garden was empty, and it was useless at all, and it was not someone who wanted to fight for a breath. In addition, this matter was indeed feasible, so he accepted it.
The two families put together a book and reported it to the emperor, so they demolished the walls of the small garden, built a few rooms, and painstakingly arranged them.
Since then, the school has been completed.
Several children from the British government's residence, plus Xue Chi from the general's residence, began to go to school every day.
It's been fine for a month or so.
As soon as Lu Jinxi woke up at that time, he heard the maid below say that Brother Chi has been smiling more recently, and she probably likes reading in it.
Can…
How long has it been? Such a big thing happened.
The East Courtyard was where Lu Jinxi lived, and it was already crowded with people.
There are about ten masters in the mansion, and no matter how frugal the general mansion is, there are not many people who serve.
The maids and wives were talking a lot, and they didn't know whether they were anxious about this matter, or whether there were more people gloating over the misfortune to inquire about the news.
Lu Jinxi walked around the second gate with a few from Friday's family, and when he looked up and saw this dark cloud, his face slowly sank.
"Why did the young master get into trouble again?"
"Oh, just don't pierce the sky."
"It's too much to bleed the second son of the British government this time, isn't it?"
…
Several maids stood very close to the door, whispering to each other.
One of the maids in a red velvet jacket and green satin vest was still nibbling on melon seeds. After nibbling one, she threw it on the ground, looked into the yard, and laughed: "Brother Chi's temper is really, ha..."
"Really what?"
A light and elegant voice connected with the words, so calm that it could not make any waves.
The maid hasn't reacted yet, thinking who is so stupid to answer
She picked up a melon seed, turned her head and said, "Of course it's a rotten person who can't support the wall—"
The last word was about to be said, and the girl's head had already turned around, wanting to see who was so stupid, but I didn't expect that when I looked up, I saw the second grandmother brought a group of people, standing behind him so mightily …
At that moment, it was really like being slapped in the face by someone!
The maid who ate the melon seeds instantly softened her legs and knelt down. She didn't even bother to take the melon seeds and fell to the ground.
"Second, second grandma, slave, slave..."
"Isn't it well said?"
Lu Jinxi pulled her thin pink lips and pulled out a cool smile, but looking at the maid's eyes, there was really no warmth.
"Tell me, what is rotten?"
"The slaves know their mistakes, the slaves know their mistakes, please forgive the second grandma, ask the second grandma for forgiveness..."
There was a cry in her voice, and the little girl couldn't stop kowtowing to the ground.
If the past were changed, she would not be so afraid.
After all, she is not Lu Jinxi's girl, but someone from the third grandmother's side, and it is generally inconvenient for outsiders to punish her.
But the matter of the three satins the day before yesterday completely changed her mind.
The second grandmother said a few words, and forced the accountant to take back the three satin that the third grandma had taken away, and gave the third grandma a shameless one.
The third grandmother was so angry that she didn't eat for two meals, and threw a lot of things in the house.
Even someone as powerful as the accountant and the third grandmother couldn't beg for it from Lu Jinxi. She is a little maid, how dare she have any ideas
"It's all rotten slaves, all slaves are rotten, the second grandma forgives..."
At the moment, she kowtowed harder, hoping to gain a little pity.
It's a pity that Lu Jinxi's heart is soft, but not warm.
There was no expression on her face, and when she lowered her eyes, she saw the scattered melon seed skins on the ground, which was really dazzling.
This girl knelt down, lowered her head, and cleverly covered her face, but how could she not recognize it? This is the girl who served in the third grandma Wei's yard, named Ruizhu.
The owner doesn't care about the Western family, let alone the master's business
Whether Xue Chi is good or not, she has never seen it, and she doesn't know yet.
But she knew exactly whether the girl in front of her was good or not.
Hearing her cry and begging for mercy, Lu Jinxi became very noisy, and felt impatient for a while.
Turning her eyes lightly, she lifted her pale and sharp jaw at will, and shouted, "Friday's house."
"Yes!"
Lu Jinxi's posture, who can't see it
Friday's family had already been prepared, and when he heard Lu Jinxi's call, he was shocked, and immediately responded, greeted another woman beside him, and walked up together.
"Second grandma! The servant knows it's wrong! The servant knows it's wrong! Ah—"
When Ruizhu saw it, she shivered with fright, and subconsciously stepped back.
But who is at home on Friday
Strong and strong, she was held down by both hands. It's just that she was still struggling and screaming.
On Friday, the family was on fire, and the old and new hatreds came together.
A few days ago, wasn't that poor girl of yours also pressed and beaten by them, her cheeks rotten and swollen
The people in the third grandma Wei's house, relying on their arrogance, usually give them a lot of popularity to the second grandma's yard.
But they didn't even look at it. The Bodhisattva's heart was so desperate, what could he do!
Do you think that today's second grandmother is the soft persimmon of the past
"Humph!"
Friday's family sneered.
At this time, it is "revenge for revenge, and revenge for grievance".
She looked down at Ruizhu's round eyes, took a direct "bah", raised her palm high, and scratched one ear!
"Snapped!"
That really took a lot of effort.
There was a red slap print on Ruizhu's face immediately, and even the originally neat bun was messed up, and there was a look of panic and astonishment on her face.
After realizing that she had been beaten, she immediately opened her mouth and cried loudly, "You—uuuuuuu!"
But it was only halfway through the call, and Friday's family had already rounded up the towel in his hand and shoved it into her mouth, blocking it tightly!
"You can't keep your mouth shut! Drag her over and don't get in the way of the second grandma!"
Saying that, she waved her hand directly, and together with another servant girl, pressed Ruizhu, dragged her hair, and dragged her to the side of the road.
This time, Lu Jinxi gave way in front of him.
She didn't speak, just glanced around.
The maids in the circle lowered their heads, daring not to look at her, all of them were silent and trembling.
Lu Jinxi didn't plan to bother with them: "Let's all go back to work."
After speaking, they didn't bother to care what they thought, so they walked towards the courtyard.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
…
The crisp voice, accompanied by Ruizhu's struggling "woo woo" sound, came from behind him clearly.
Lu Jinxi heard it, but didn't raise her eyes, and her footsteps were not disturbed at all.
Not used to it is still a little bit.
only…
A while ago, when she was still sick and lying on the couch, the one who suffered this crime was the maid of the East Courtyard.
That girl is the daughter of Wu's family. She is only eleven or twelve years old. In the mansion, they have to be ruthless! The next time he was brutally beaten, it was nothing.
Gradually you will get used to it.
she thinks.
In the east courtyard, there are only a few cold plum trees that are almost thankful, and a little greenery comes out. The flagstone road in the atrium was swept clean, and there was no snow in sight.
She stepped silently, stepped over, and went up the steps, ready to see the situation of Xue Chi's child.
Lu Jinxi had never been a mother before, so she had no experience, and she didn't think she would get along with her children.
After recovering from her illness, she was worried about things in the house, but she was even more worried about being exposed by the Lu family's children.
At this moment, as the footsteps got closer, her calm heart began to give birth to a bit of strange anxiety and curiosity: I don't know what this "little overlord" who called everyone in the house to retreat looks like
But before she could get close, a mocking laughter came from inside.
"I said earlier that brother Chi should be disciplined and disciplined, but the second sister-in-law insists on doing her own thing and doesn't listen at all. Now, it's okay, we beat someone and offended the precious British government. Can't we afford it? Tsk, no know how it ends..."
