I finally got home, and it took me no more than an hour to go back and forth.
Ruyi Shou was sewing outside, and when she heard Rong Zheng and the others came back, she hurriedly stood up.
Rong Zheng nodded and said, "Has anyone come to see me?"
Ruyi shook his head.
Rongzheng felt relieved and walked into the inner room, followed by Zisu.
Ruyi also followed in.
Rongzheng sat sullenly at the table, holding his head with one hand, looking at Basho outside the window, frowning and thinking for a while, Zisu cautiously said in front of Rongzheng: "Miss, this matter cannot be revealed as easily as before.
It’s over.”
"I know that everything has a bottom line.
This matter has violated my bottom line, so naturally it won't be easy to get around it."
The little maid in the yard announced: "Sister Huiqiu is here."
Rongzheng didn't want to see anyone at this moment, so she turned around and said to Ruyi: "Go out and tell her, just tell her that I'm not feeling well and need to rest, so I won't see you today.
If you have anything to say, let her tell you."
Ruyi agreed and went.
Rongzheng walked around the screen, took off her outer robe, and lay down on the bed fully clothed.
Zisu was about to put down the tent for Rongzheng, but Rongzheng stopped her: "It's okay, I just want to lie down for a while without putting up the tent.
You have to keep today's matter a secret for me.
Don't tell Ruyi and the wet nurse for now. ” Zisu raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, miss, I know."
Rongzheng didn't want anyone to disturb her while she was resting, so Zisu retreated.
When she walked outside, Hui Qiu had already left, and Ruyi was still sitting there doing needlework.
"What's wrong with her coming?"
Ruyi said: "Nothing happened.
I was bored at home and wanted to come and talk to the lady.
I heard that the lady was not feeling well, so I went back and greeted her."
Zisu didn't take it to heart.
Ruyi couldn't help but asked curiously: "Did something happen there, Miss?"
Zi Su said: "Don't guess yet.
You will know it after a while."
Ruyi said with some displeasure: "Humph, it seems that you and the lady have a deep friendship.
The lady will take you with her wherever she goes."
"Come on, please stop saying a word.
I dare not disobey the lady's instructions.
If you want to know, ask the lady.
I just heard that Hongluo and Qingfang were quarreling.
Don't think about quarreling with me again.
The quarrel makes the lady uneasy. ” Ruyi curled her lips and said, "Just a casual question.
If you don't want to say it, forget it."
Zisu had no intention of arguing with Ruyi, and when he came out, Meifen was quietly waving to Zisu under the tree.
Zisu walked over.
Ask her in a low voice: "What do you want?
Miss is resting now, don't disturb her."
Meifen pulled Zisu to a secluded place and lowered her voice and said to her: "Qingfang left our place today and immediately went to find her mother.
The mother and daughter whispered in the room for nearly half of the time.
Shi Qingfang came out."
Zisu was still a little stunned at first.

Only later did I realize it and asked, "Did you stare at her?"
Meifen said: "It's the lady's order."
Who is the mole among these people in the yard?
Everyone is suspicious, but the strange behavior Qingfang has inadvertently revealed these days is really suspicious.
It seems that not only her, but also the young lady is also suspicious.
She then told Mei Fen: "Then keep a close eye on it and tell us immediately if anything strange happens."
Rong Zheng was lying alone on the bed, her eyes resting on the colorful silk embroidered sachet hanging in the corner of the tent.
She thought about everything over and over again.
Xindao's stepmother was finally unwilling to attack her.
Perhaps it was because Rongzheng had not counterattacked properly despite his intentional and unintentional moves the last few times, which made Ma feel that Rongzheng was timid.
Then he became unscrupulous.
She remembered what happened last time.
It was also when she was fourteen years old that it was the right age to propose marriage to her.
At Ma's birthday party, a farce occurred that shocked the family and guests.
There was an opera going on at home, and she slipped away to play in the garden.
There were many guests at home that day, and many people she didn't know came to the house.
When she got to the garden, she saw two young men with unfamiliar faces watching fish in the pond.
Seeing her coming, they all gathered around and wanted to chat with her.
Rongzheng didn't bother to hang around with these people.
Then a man in a blue satin robe said to Rongzheng: "Miss, there is a moving Western painting in that room.
Do you know?"
Rongzheng was very curious and said hurriedly: "Don't coax me if the painting can be moved.
I'm not a three-year-old child.
Besides, this is my home.
I don't know what kind of rare treasures there are in my home."
"If you don't believe it, come with us and have a look."
What Rong Zheng was thinking about at that time was what she had to be afraid of in her own home.
If she followed these two people, she would go see the moving paintings if she felt confident.
The two of them took her to a secluded hut in the back garden that wasn't often visited.
One of them had already closed the door.
Rong Zheng didn't feel there was any danger yet, so she hurriedly asked: "Where is the painting?
Take it out and let me take a look."
One of them said: "You are a young lady from the Rong family.
You are so beautiful.
What kind of material is this dress made of and what kind of flowers are it embroidered on?
Can you please tell us?"
Another said: "Miss, what kind of fragrance do you use to make your body smell so good?"
Only then did Rong Zheng realize that something was wrong and wanted to go out, but was blocked at the door.
He was shocked and angry: "This is in the Rong family.
My father is an official of the imperial court.
How dare you take the family members of an official of the imperial court?
You Don’t you want to live anymore?”
Rongzheng yelled, trying to make the noise louder and attract people to escape.
She roared out these words, which really attracted the maid.
The first person to find it was a maid named Xiaocui who was responsible for sweeping in Ma's house.

Xiao Cui heard Rong Zheng yelling from inside, but she couldn't open the door outside, so she went to call someone else.
In the end, Mr.
Ma was alarmed, and the strong man at home kicked open the door.
The female relatives who came to the banquet watched Rong Zheng and two men come out of the house.
Rong Zheng's hair was messy and her clothes were disheveled.
Everyone was shocked.
This incident once caused a big fuss in Bianliang.
At that time, she was only blamed for being stupid for believing in a stranger's words so easily and following the man into the house.
Ma seemed to want to investigate the matter strictly, but the investigation went on and on, and nothing came to light in the end.
However, her reputation in Bianliang was already ruined.
After experiencing many things, she finally figured it out.
Why did those two people appear in the back garden of the house, why did they escape smoothly in the end, and why were they not held accountable?
There must be an insider in the family.
Someone close to her even planned this incident, but she just foolishly fell into their trap.
When her father was in office, she had never had any grudges with her third wife.
Who else could do this besides her stepmother?
The thief called out a trick to catch the thief, but she was at a loss.
Although nothing like the previous life happened in this life, Ma's actions were not small.
So much so that now she is being robbed halfway.
If she remains silent.
I'm just afraid that people will think she is too cowardly.
I dare not resist even when bullied to my head.
This time Rongzheng had made up her mind.
Anyway, she and Ma had already broken up, so there was no need to think about maintaining the superficial harmony.
How to deal with it in the end depends on what the father wants.
Whether Ma is dead or alive, going or staying, it has nothing to do with her.
Thinking of this, she couldn't lie down anymore, and loudly called Ruyi to come in and asked Ruyi to prepare the pen and ink.
She leaned on the table and wrote a letter to her father.
The ins and outs of this matter were clearly recorded.
After writing the letter, she thought of the Xiao brothers.
Xiao Fu helped him go to the capital and Nanyang, and helped her get things done smoothly.
But this time it was no different than before.
Feng Yi had to be escorted to Anyang.
Xiao Fu's skills were not as good as those of Xiao Lu, so if something unexpected happened midway, it would be better to send Xiao Lu instead.
His temperament is not as calm as Xiao Fu's.
After much deliberation, Rongzheng had no choice but to let the two brothers go.
She had already thought of an excuse.
New plums and cherries had arrived from the farm, so she asked the two brothers to help her deliver the fruits to Anyang.
Rongzheng asked Ruyi to help her call Xiao Lu in.
Not long after, Xiao Lu came over.
Rong Zheng sent all the maids away, leaving Xiao Lu alone.
Rongzheng said, "I'll ask you to go to Anyang in the next two days, and take that man from Tianshui Lane with you."
Xiao Lu knew that this matter was of great importance, so he had to be cautious and said quickly: "If the young lady asks the younger one to escort her, the younger one will be afraid of any accidents along the way."
"I asked your brother to join you.
All I told the outside world was that I asked you to deliver fruit to my father for a taste.

No matter who else asked you, you would answer like this.
I will send you two brothers, and you can see what can be done. "?"
Xiao Lu is not stupid.
He knows that this is a confidential matter.
Naturally, the fewer people, the better.
Besides, the young lady’s excuse is to send fruit to the master.
If she sends fruit and invites a large group of people to go, it seems to be more conspicuous.
He has learned a lot of skills from Luo Liang in the past year since he came to the Rong family.
If there is any emergency, he can probably handle it.
However, he had never done such an errand before, so he didn't have much confidence in his heart.
Looking at Xiao Lu's hesitant eyes, Rong Zheng couldn't help feeling angry, and said slightly angrily: "Just tell me if you can do it or not."
When things came to a close, he had no choice but to grit his teeth.
Xiao Lu said, "I'm willing to give it a try."
"This is not a matter of giving it a try.
If something goes wrong, it will be a big deal.
If you are really not sure, I will send you another one with good skills."
Xiao Lu hurriedly said: "In this case, I will have more confidence."
Rong Zheng said: "In this case, some things need to be rearranged.
You can set off early the next morning.
The other person will meet you at Tianshui Lane."
Xiao Lu agreed repeatedly.
Rongzheng originally didn't want to trouble Mu Xuan anymore, but she only had the two Xiao brothers at her disposal.
Both of them have their own strengths and weaknesses, and neither one is the best candidate.
She had no choice but to beg Mu Xuan again and ask him to send someone to help escort Feng Yi to Anyang.
Trust and people were not enough, and Rongzheng did not want to leave any more opportunities for Ma.
The two things she collected will be taken away by the Xiao brothers when the time comes.
Her father will be angry to death when he sees this.
At night, Zisu and Rongzheng discussed: "Miss, why don't we find an opportunity to let Qingfang go out?"
Rong Zheng asked hurriedly: "Have you checked everything?"
Zisu said: "Among us here, she is the one who has the most contact with my wife.
Besides, she has been sneaky a few times.
It is always uneasy to keep such a person around."
Rong Zheng said: "That's fine, it's better to clean it out.
Let Mei Fen fill the vacant position then.
I see that this little girl is still practical in her work."
Zisu added: "It's just a bit embarrassing.
Her mother is from the wife's house and has some roots in our family.
I'm afraid she won't be driven away easily."
Rong Zheng said: "There are many ways to deal with a maid.
I have her bond of sale.
I don't have to report it to my wife when the time comes.
I can be her master."
"I'm just afraid that her mother won't obey her.
What should I do if she goes to my wife and cries?"
Rongzheng muttered: "Her master is almost lost, why would he care about such a little girl?"

Zisu understood that Rongzheng had already made a decision.
She could also clearly realize that there would be a violent storm in the house soon.
It is the wife who should protect herself now, not her young lady.
Zisu understood Rongzheng's intention and went to Ruyi to discuss it with her.
After hearing this, Ruyi said: "I hate people who pick up the inside and outside the most.
Our lady can't wait until she is too weak to get rid of such a person.
I have my own way to deal with her."
As the two first-class maids beside Rongzheng, Zisu is calm and Ruyi is cheerful and lively, complementing each other.
One day later, Ruyi brought Qingfang to Rongzheng and said to Rongzheng, "Miss, there is a thief in our house.
We can't keep this little one with his broken hoof."
Rong Zheng turned pale and asked, "What did she steal?"
Ruyi said: "Miss wanted to wear the pair of pearl earrings a few days ago, but I couldn't find them even though I was looking for them.
I didn't expect that this little hoof took them away."
Ruyi said and handed a rolled handkerchief to Rongzheng.
Front.
Qingfang knelt down and begged: "Miss, you have to make the decision for me.
I have never taken anything from the lady."
Rongzheng quickly understood what was going on.
She opened the handkerchief and took a look.
It was the earrings she had worn before, so she wrapped them in the handkerchief and threw them in front of Qingfang.
She said coldly: "Everyone has stolen goods."
Hui, what else do you have to say?”
Qingfang sobbed: "Miss, this really wasn't taken by this slave.
Someone must be trying to frame me.
Miss, please find out."
Rongzheng turned away, obviously not wanting to talk to Qingfang anymore.
Qingfang pulled the hem of Rongzheng's clothes and begged: "Miss, how can I admit something that I haven't done?
It's not me, it's definitely not me. .
The lady has not allowed us to enter your house these days.
How can you say that what I took must be the red snail.
I had an argument with her two days ago.
She must be trying to frame me.
I asked the lady to make the decision for me."
"Don't look at us for knowing what you have done.
We have captured you today.
Do you still have the face to stay and beg the lady?
It's useless.
We can't tolerate thieves here."
Qingfang heard Ruyi keep saying that she was a thief, and couldn't help but argue with Ruyi: "Sister Ruyi, you didn't see me taking things from the lady's room, how come you thought it was me?"
"You didn't take it, so why did this thing go into your box?"
Qingfang defended: "I live in the same house as Hongluo, so she must have deliberately framed me."
Ruyi nodded and said: "Okay, you still don't admit it.
I'll call Hongluo to come over and confront you."
After a while, Hongluo came over.
She kowtowed to Rongzheng and said in a clear voice: "Miss, I saw Qingfang secretly looking at her at the door two days ago.

I asked her what happened, and she He looked panicked and uncomfortable.”
Qingfang cried and fell to the ground: "I'm wronged.
I just have something to report to the lady.
How could I conclude that I ran into the lady's room and stole her things?
It must be you, you are the one who holds a grudge.
The one who deliberately wanted to frame me was No," Qingfang said, desperately trying to tear Hongluo's face off.
Xiao Wang heard the noise and walked in, stopped in front of Qingfang and said: "Girl, if you still want to show dignity, you shouldn't act like this in front of the young lady."
Qingfang completely understood that these people were colluding to frame her.
Unconvinced, she twitched for a while, wiped her tears with her sleeves, and slowly stood up.
Rongzheng said abruptly: "Our temple is small and there is no room for a big Bodhisattva like you.
Pack your things and leave as soon as possible."
She called Zisu and asked Zisu to bring Qingfang's deed of betrayal.
Rongzheng threw Qingfang's contract in front of her, then got up and went back to the back room.
Drive her away, really mean to drive her away.
Qingfang cried: "Miss, are you going to let me suffer this unjust injustice and not make the decision for me?"
Rong Zheng said: "I have the final say whether you make the decision or not.
I'll save you some face now and go out.
Don't make the noise known to everyone.
It won't look good if everyone loses face."
Qingfang knew that it was useless to say anything she said, and it was just an excuse to take stolen goods.
The lady can no longer tolerate her.
But how could she be willing to be expelled like this?
Qingfang wiped away her tears hard, picked up the deed on the ground, and walked out without looking back
