Chapter 1858 Besieged (3)

The Purple Bamboo Courtyard arrived quickly. There were many maids and women guarding the courtyard, but they were quiet and well-behaved. The Purple Bamboo Courtyard was built elegantly, richly and exquisitely, making it very suitable for a daughter's home.

The pretty maid standing in the corridor wearing green armor saw Fei'er and his party approaching, she hurriedly opened the curtain and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, young lady, we have picked up two more ladies, please come in quickly."

Fei'er said: "You have worked hard too. Once the Second Madam's birthday passes, I will definitely reward you all."

As he spoke, he took Ning Huaixiu and Juhua into the house. As soon as he entered the door, a warmth hit his face. The room was not only warm as spring, but also fragrant. There were about a dozen young people with fat and thin bodies. The young ladies were sitting or standing, talking and laughing lively. When they saw Mayfair enter the room, they all stopped talking and actually got up.

Ning Huaixiu is a famous lady in the capital. Everyone recognizes her. Only Juhua has not shown much of her face. The only one who showed her face to everyone was when she first came to the palace to meet Caiwei that year. However, everyone was congratulating her at that time. , no one dared to look up, so few people noticed her appearance. It is precisely because of this that the ladies in the room do not recognize her.

Fei'er said: "No need to be formal, please sit down and talk!"

After saying that, she introduced everyone. She did not mention the specific identity of Juhua. She just said that she was the direct daughter of Master Shen. The girls did not know the origin of Shen Juhua. They saw her wearing a high-quality mutton-fat jade mandarin duck jade pendant. What he got was a Yanyun gauze worth several hundred taels a piece, and he was with Ning Huaixiu. He thought she was a noble girl from some family, so he greeted her in a gentle and humble manner.

After Feier brought them in, she joked for a while and then hurried to the front to get busy.

Several daughters from General Zhongyi's Mansion and Uncle Wu Qing's Mansion came over and talked affectionately around Shen Juhua. A young lady about ten years old stepped forward and took Juhua's hand. She raised her face and asked Juhua: "Sister Shen, how have you been lately?" Miss Shen, the Fengzhou Inspector who has been transferred to the capital, how come I haven’t seen you before?"

The Fengzhou Inspector was a third-rank official, one or two ranks lower than Juhua's father. Juhua shook his head quickly and said to the little girl with a smile: "No, my father was transferred to the capital from the north. In the past, I am serving as the county magistrate of Qing County in Bianzhou!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the smile on the little girl's face disappeared and her voice became colder.

"You are that Shen Juhua!"

Juhua was startled. She didn't know this little girl, and her family had no hatred towards her. How could she hate her so much?

"Uh, yeah, what's wrong?"

When the little girl heard this, she threw away her hand angrily and said sternly: "My cousin Li almost lost his life because of you, and my uncle almost died of illness in the north. It's better for you. Seeing that my cousin is disabled, He rushed to get married. He is really a ruthless and cold-hearted person. If you are like this, why are you here to manage the Duke's mansion? Do you still think my cousin is not sad enough? "

The little girl who spoke was Bai's niece. She heard the adults whisper a few words about Mo Zili and Shen Juhua, so she took it to heart and regarded Shen Juhua as that kind of ungrateful and profit-seeking woman. , because he was young and impulsive, he turned his face when he found out it was chrysanthemum, and directly questioned him face to face.

Juhua was reprimanded, her face turned red, she coughed, and said, "Little sister, you are mistaken. Your cousin and I have nothing to do with each other, but you are too worried!"

"Bah, who is your sister? My father is a third-rank official in the court. What does your father do? Your lowly status is not worthy of carrying my shoes. I will kill my cousin. Then you can be a treasure. , let me ask you, you keep saying that my cousin Li has nothing to do with you, but my cousin will jump off the cliff and risk his life to save you. He is not the kind of character who is brave enough to sacrifice himself to save others. If it were you, he would do it to save a person. Is it just someone you know jumped off a cliff?"
