Ci Jinzhi Chapter 16

  Chapter 16 Recognizing the Lord

   Qiao glanced over and said, "What Qingqing said is that the coachman is negligent and should be punished."

   "Miss!" The coachman changed his face.

  Joe's face mask was frosty: "Don't make trouble again, the cousin girl has been wronged, how can you just ask for mercy!"

  The coachman was stunned for a moment, as if he had come to his senses, he kowtowed heavily to Xinyou: "Your cousin, you are kind, so let me forgive this old slave for this mistake."

  The maid who stayed outside the door for a while couldn't help but quietly looked inside.

  Under all eyes, Xin You's face was very calm, which contrasted with the noisy coachman begging for mercy.

  The old lady was silent, interested in seeing how her granddaughter would respond.

Xinyou let the coachman make trouble for a while, then said calmly: "Auntie's words made Qingqing ashamed. I didn't want to embarrass Uncle Zhang because I was wronged, but because I didn't want the Shaoqing Mansion to mess up the rules of clear rewards and punishments. Today there are righteous men who took action. I am not injured, but just because I am not injured, you cannot ignore Uncle Zhang's responsibility as a coachman.”

She stopped for a while and looked at the old lady: "If this dereliction of duty is not punished, others will see it as a fluke, and will not take the safety of grandma, uncle and aunt at heart in the future. If something happens, it will not be caused by Qingqing. the reason."

  The old lady nodded unconsciously, and looked at Mrs. Qiao.

  Xin You also looked at her, and said word by word: "Qingqing's grievances are nothing, Auntie doesn't have to worry about me, she can act as she pleases."

  Xiao Lian knelt down and listened, her eyes sparkling.

  Girl can really speak!

  Qiao's face remained calm, and he tightened his hand holding the handkerchief: "Qingqing is right. Those who make meritorious deeds should be rewarded, and those who have done so should be punished. Old Zhangtou, you can go to Zhuangzi to look at the garden from now on."

  The coachman was shocked: "Ma'am, the old slave's family is in the mansion, please forgive me!"

  Mr. Qiao's face sank: "If it wasn't for your hard work, you should be driven out."

  The coachman sat on the ground, his face full of despair.

  The coachman is considered a fat job. Not to mention the rewards when going out, if you go to another house as a guest, you will be treated with delicious food and drinks. Going to Zhuangzi to look at the garden compared with it is tantamount to being assigned.

  The more the coachman thought about it, the more frustrated he became, but he still had hope in his heart, so he didn't dare to say anything.

  The old lady waved the driver and the two guards to retreat, and said to Qiao: "These people in the mansion should take a good look at it. If they are too lax, troubles will easily arise."

   "My daughter-in-law knows." Mrs. Qiao glanced at Xinyou, and asked the old lady, "I don't know who the righteous man who saved Qingqing is, so my daughter-in-law should be ready to thank you."

  The old lady picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, and said lightly: "I just asked the guards, and they said that the righteous man did not leave a name, so that's all for the time being, if we can find out the identity of the righteous man in the future."

  Xin You lowered her eyes, covering the waves in her eyes, and became even more curious about the identity of the man in Zhu Yi.

  The two guards clearly knew the identity of the man in Zhu Yi, even if they avoided talking about it to her, they would not hide it from the old lady.

  The old lady said so because she knew the identity of the man in Zhu Yi.

  Is the name of the governor of Jinlinwei town alone so that people can't avoid it?

  Xin You was suspicious, but didn't show it at all.

   Seeing that she didn't say much, the wrinkles on the old lady's face stretched a little.

  It is the age when the love affair is just beginning, and when you meet a young man like Pan An Songyu, who has the grace to save your life, once you move your mind, you will be in countless troubles.

  That person is not in the Shaoqing Mansion.

   Let's talk again—the old lady looked at the girl in front of her, and smiled at the corner of her mouth.

  When she first came to Shaoqing's mansion, she only knew that the girl was crying, and she gradually grew into a look she was satisfied with. In the future, she will be married to her eldest grandson, and get the best of both worlds.

   "I was shocked today, go back and rest quickly, and don't come here to say hello tomorrow."

  Xin You saluted the old lady and Mrs. Qiao, and left with Xiaolian.

   Mrs. Qiao wanted to leave, but was kept by the old lady.

   "Qingqing is filial piety, and she will be sixteen in a blink of an eye, and Chen'er is not young, it's time to settle their affairs." The old lady took a sip of tea and looked at Qiao with expectation in her eyes.

   Qiao said with a smile: "The two children have indeed reached the age to discuss marriage, but Qingqing is still taking care of her body and her memory is recovering. Why don't we discuss these things after she recovers. What do you think?"

  The old lady stared at Mrs. Qiao for a moment, although she felt a little dissatisfied in her heart, she still didn't disgrace her daughter-in-law: "Then wait until Qingqing is well enough to talk about it."

   Mrs. Qiao smiled, said goodbye and returned to Yaxin Garden.

  As soon as she entered Wanqing's room, Xiao Lian wrapped her arms around Xinyou: "Girl, you are so amazing!"

  Although she suspected that the frightened horse was not an accident, she had no basis for it. She thought it was the only way to let it go, but she didn't expect to follow the girl's orders, at least the black-hearted coachman would not get well.

   "Xiao Lian, what's going on here?" Mother Fang heard something was wrong and hurriedly asked.

   Xiaolian now has time to talk about the things on the road in detail.

  After hearing that her hands and feet were cold, Nanny Fang took Xin You's hand and tremblingly said, "This is not my grandfather's house, it's clearly a tiger's den and a wolf's den. There is such a person hiding in the dark waiting for an opportunity to harm the girl, what can you do!"

  Xin You patted Nanny Fang's hand: "With the help of Nanny and Xiaolian, I believe I will get through this difficult time. Nanny, pay more attention outside these few days to see if there are any rumors about Shaoqing's Mansion."

"good."

  When only Xiao Lian was left in the room, the little maid knelt down.

   "Xiao Lian, what are you doing?"

  Xiao Lian raised her head, with tears falling from the corners of her eyes: "Thanks to you, the girl will not be exposed to the wilderness, and her injustice will never see the light of day. Xiao Lian kowtowed to you, and from now on, you are Xiao Lian's other master."

  Xin You stretched out her hand to stop her: "That doesn't have to be the case."

   "Let the servant girl kowtow to you a few times, so that the servant girl will feel better."

   After hearing this, Xin You let go of her hand.

Xiao Lian firmly kowtowed her head three times, and said in her mouth: "This is from the maidservant, this is for the young lady, this is for the master's wife. From then on, the girl and the master's wife are reunited... "

   After knocking three times, she didn't get up, but knocked another one: "This is taken in by Miss Lian Xie, thank you for letting the maidservant rely on again..."

  This tiger's lair and wolf's lair, if the girl hadn't appeared, she would have been smashed to pieces.

   "Get up quickly."

  Xiao Lian wiped her tears and stood up, thinking of her current situation, she was a little worried: "Girl, can we really get through this?"

  Xin You watched the plantain swaying in the wind through the window.

   Plantains are as green as emeralds, vibrant and pleasing to the eye.

   "Just find out the murderer." Xin You said calmly.

  By this time, the murderer of Kou Qingqing has surfaced.

   "The murderer you mentioned is—"

   "Mrs. Joe."

  Xiao Lian took a deep breath and covered her mouth: "Girl, you just said in front of her that you are going to restore your memory, what if she tries again?"

  Xin You tilted her head and smiled: "The target of her next murder may be someone else."
