: Stealing a chicken will not lose rice

At the end of winter, the twisted branches of the courtyard are bare, and the west wind swept by, rustling.

A Chou has a small tomb with piles of earth buns and no tombstones are erected.

It is buried under the peach tree. When it is in spring next year, the peach tree will bloom all over the branches, and it will be nourished by A Chou's body.

Ah Chou has never lived.

The day Xue Mei picked it up, it had no soul and was occupied by King Rui.

Neither live nor die.

Xue Mei squatted down and gently pressed the soil on the small grave with her palm. The soil was cold and there was no longer the warmth on A Chou's hair.

"Go to sleep." Xue Mei whispered, "I'll come to see you when it blooms."

She stood up.

He Fang looked at her with a very strange look behind her.

Although he helped the prince do things, He Fang had an indescribable doubt in his heart.

How did the prince know the Lord of Chengyang County?

What's going on with this cat?

Why did the prince insist on giving the credit to the Lord of Chengyang County? It was clear that the real person Guangwei saved him. Isn’t he afraid of offending the real person?

The real person Guangwei seemed to be very capable.

After worshiping the cat, Xue Mei returned from Prince Rui’s Mansion to Yongning Marquis Mansion.

She did not walk through the gate, but came directly from Xiyuan.

Passing by the back garden, I saw the maid of the second lady Xue Yutan, walking the dog.

The dog has a lucky head and is all white.

However, Miss II doesn’t seem to like dogs very much. This dog was given to Mr. Marquis. Miss II said she loved it very much and was also raising it with delicious food and drink.

But she never hugged her all the time like a young lady likes cats.

Most of the time, the maids took Futou out for a walk.

"County Lord." The maid named Lampei, who is tall and has a little high cheekbones, makes her face slightly mean.

According to Hongluan and the others, Lampe looked fierce but his personality was actually good; Xue Yutan's nanny Gan's mother looked serious, but she was actually weak and useless.

However, the maid next to the second lady was silent and honest. She was very honest and honest, but she was deeply influenced by the second lady. She was a harmless person on the outside but vicious inside.

"Do you walk your lucky head?" Xue Mei saw it and remembered her Chou, her voice a little astringent.

Lampedo is.

She picked up the dog, took a few steps back, and saluted Xue Mei: "My lord, don't be afraid of dogs. Lu Bu is very obedient. She never bites people."

"I know." Xue Mei smiled.

After passing by, Xue Mei returned to her own Huining Garden.

As soon as she came back, she locked herself up and went into the space.

The maids didn't know what was wrong with the eldest lady and were very worried about her.

"A Chou hasn't been back for a long time."

"The eldest lady is so painful as if she is eyeballs. No wonder she hasn't had a good time these days."

"The eldest lady didn't say where she threw it. Let's go and look for it together."

Everyone couldn't use their strength and was anxious outside.

Especially Hongluan, she simply left the yard and planned to search for it casually, and was worried about being stuck in the house.

Before Lampe went back to walk his dog, he ran into Hongluan: "What are you going to do?"

Hongluan is now a first-class maid, and she is qualified to be red in the mansion; Lampai is only a second-class maid after all, and she has to wear green.

Seeing that Lampe was so big and small, he asked so frantically. Hongluan was immediately unhappy and glanced at her slantedly, and her eyes fell on her clothes.

Lampe is not stupid.

If he was stupid, he would have been dealt with long ago.

"Sister Hongluan, what are you doing?" Lampie hurriedly added a title.

Hongluan ignored her.

"A Chou, where are you going?" Hongluan shouted in the back garden.

Only then did Lampe realize that the eldest lady's cat was gone.

When she returned to Wenqiyuan, Lampe told Gan's mother about this and said that the eldest lady's cat was lost.

She told the little maids again: "The county lord's cat is lost. Whoever you see it? Catch it and send it to Huining Garden. The county lord will definitely receive a reward."

The little maids' eyes were shiny.

The county lord is very rich and richer than the entire Marquis’ Mansion. The county lord is generous to his subordinates. He heard that he mistakenly copied Huiningyuan a few days ago, and the maids and mothers swear to be loyal to their death because the county lord privately subsidies were twice as much as their monthly money each month.

In the county lord's yard, the mother-in-law was able to get along with the mother-in-chief around the third wife.

Who is not jealous?

I found the county lord's cat and sent it there. At the least, there will be rewards. At the worst, the county lord transferred himself into Huining Garden and would enjoy the happiness from now on.

The county lord not only gives a lot of monthly money, but also has a very kind person and never beats and scolds his servants.

When I first copied Huiningyuan, I heard that Hongluan and others were urging the county lords to copy the women in charge of picking up the women, but the county lord said that they were "involuntarily" and were doing things by following the masters' words.

When those in charge of the affairs heard about it, they all praised the county lord for his kindness in private.

For a moment, the marquis's mansion was looking for cats.

The servants in the outer courtyard were still searching nearby, busy.

The next day, when Xue Mei came out of the space, she heard that seven or eight cats were sent to Huining Garden.

The maids are all very familiar with A Chou. The eldest lady's A Chou is very smart. You can tell that it's wrong when you try it.

Xue Mei was both funny and a little sad when she heard this.

She paused, summoned everyone in Huiningyuan and said to them: "Don't be busy looking for it, A Chou has passed away."

Everyone: "..."

Hongluan was about to cry: "It's impossible, Ah Chou is free from illness and disaster, he is lively and lively. Miss, you must have made a mistake."

Xue Mei: "I have never made any mistake. Ah Chou passed away ten days ago. I have always known it, but I just didn't tell you."

Hongluan stood there, tears suddenly surged up.

Xiuzhu and Caiyuan were also very sad, but they did not dare to cry, and they advised Hongluan not to provoke the young lady.

Hongluan was always a little childish and started crying.

Xue Mei seemed to feel that Hongluan's crying relieved it and did not stop her.

She put on the steps at the door and asked Hongluan to come and sit down, crying slowly.

"You all go and do it. Everyone else in the family, whoever catches the cat, is their kind intention. Everyone who catches the cat will be rewarded with two taels of silver. Mom Dai, go and do it." Xue Mei said.

Dai's mother said yes, she went to get the money.

Someone will do the work for the young lady, and the young lady will reward her. In the future, others will be more loyal and willing to serve the young lady.

These loyalties are more important than money.

Dai's mother understood this truth, and she didn't care about it and took out the money to reward her.

Everyone in the Hou Mansion was happy, just like the New Year.

Xue Yutan realized this after realizing it. He was a little annoyed and jealous.

She said to the two nanny in charge: "My sister is inviting people to buy people's hearts again."

These two nannies are with the imperial concubines, so they will still have to return to the palace in the future. Give Xue Mei an eye drop in front of them so that Xue Mei would not turn around and say bad things about her in front of the imperial concubine.

After all, Xue Meiji has prepared the imperial concubine.

Unexpectedly, the two nannies were unmoved.

Another nanny even taught Xue Yutan: "The subordinates contributed their efforts to the county lord, and the county lord paid for the reward, which is called clear rewards and punishments.

Second Miss, you should learn from the county lord and not be reluctant to let go of money and other external things. Like the county lord, it is the style of the lady of the big Fangfang Hou Mansion."

After hearing this, Xue Yutan's face turned pale without control.

She wanted to stumbling to Xue Mei, but she wanted to be in the eyes of the nanny, but she felt sorry for money and was so angry that she couldn't get into the forefront.

She is just a conscience.

If the nannies are not satisfied with her, they will report back to the imperial concubine truthfully, can she, as the conscience, really become the prince's concubine?

Xue Yutan shivered and hurriedly said yes.

On the side of Prince Rui’s Mansion, Xiao Jingcheng woke up the next day and was able to walk around.

The emperor, the queen mother and others all came to see him; Xiao Mingyu was also curious and looked around him for a while; Princess Yanping Qi Siran was in tears and said that she was very pleased that he could wake up.

Xiao Jingcheng's expression was faint.

He was originally a person with extremely indifferent personality.

He was silent, waiting from morning to night, and did not wait for Xue Mei.

After the night, Xiao Jingcheng wanted to do something unexpected to everyone.
