MTL - Ci Jinzhi-Chapter 195 Take care of "nosy"
Chapter 195 "Nosy business"
At this time, the Shaoqing Mansion is busy with the New Year's affairs, and the second wife, Mrs. Zhu, is in charge of the house, and she is even more busy.
Duan Yunyan brought a little maid to walk over from the stage.
There is still snow piled up beside the bushes, and two house sparrows are jumping.
Duan Yunyan leaned over, and two house sparrows flew up and stood on the tall branches.
"Mizuki, go get some millet."
"Miss, do you want to feed the house sparrow?" Lu Ying asked with a smile.
"Yeah. Hurry up."
"Then girl, don't go anywhere else, just wait here for the maidservant." Lu Ying warned, turned and left.
There is no maidservant by her side, and there is no one around, Duan Yunyan waved at the house sparrow, imitating the birdsong: "Chi Chi, Chi Chi..."
After Zhu's butler became the housekeeper, the servants in the mansion treated the fourth girl much more submissively, and Duan Yunyan also obviously felt the relaxed atmosphere.
The girl in the red coat and red skirt has a healthy blush on her face, showing her innocence.
This romance hurt Duan Yunhua's eyes.
"Chichi, come down, let me feed you..."
"It's so noisy." Duan Yunhua looked grim, and bent down to pick up the stones on the ground.
"what are you doing?"
Following a yell, Duan Yunyan, who heard the movement, turned her head and saw Xin You pulling Duan Yunhua's wrist, and a piece of gravel fell to the ground.
"Let go!" Duan Yunhua sternly yelled at Xin You, panicked and regretful.
What happened to her? What were you doing just now?
She just thought Duan Yunyan was noisy and wanted her to shut up...
Looking at Duan Yunhua's changing expression, Xin You knew what she was going to do.
Not long ago, when the juniors were greeting the elders, Xin You saw a new picture, which was about Duan Yunyan.
The girl in red looked up at the house sparrow on the branch with a sweet smile, but soon a stone flew and hit her temple.
The last scene is Duan Yunyan lying on his back on the ground, the bright red dyed the remaining snow.
There is no murderer in the screen, so it is impossible to tell who made the flying stones.
Xin You quickly judged from Duan Yunyan's clothes in the middle of the screen that the incident happened today.
She didn't have enough time to find out who hated Duan Yunyan so much, so she could only quietly pay attention to Duan Yunyan's actions. When the place where Duan Yunyan stopped coincided with the picture, she found Duan Yunhua according to the direction the stone was flying from.
For a moment, Xinyou felt unbelievable.
"Second sister, cousin, what are you doing?" Duan Yunyan came over and asked curiously.
"nothing-"
Xin You unceremoniously interrupted Duan Yunhua: "She just wanted to hit you with a stone."
Duan Yunyan looked down at the rocks on the ground, and looked at Duan Yunhua in horror: "Second Sister—"
At this moment, Duan Yunhua reacted very quickly: "Fourth sister, don't listen to her nonsense, we haven't even quarreled, why should I hit you?"
Although Duan Yunyan is young, she is not so easy to coax: "Then what is the second sister doing with the stone? I just saw that cousin Qing grabbed your hand, so she didn't throw the stone."
Duan Yunhua's complexion changed slightly: "I see that you keep shouting that the house sparrow on the tree can't come down, so I help you drive the house bird down. Fourth sister, you don't really believe Kou Qingqing's nonsense, do you?"
Duan Yunyan pursed her lips.
In fact, she only saw the stone on the ground, but did not see the second sister holding the stone.
"Girl—" Lvying who took the millet rushed back, and when she saw Xinyou and Duan Yunhua, she cast puzzled eyes.
Duan Yunyan looked at Duan Yunhua, then at Xinyou, and took Lu Ying's hand: "I won't play anymore, I'm going to find my mother."
The little girl hesitated for a moment, and bowed to Xin You: "Thank you, Cousin Qing."
Duan Yunhua was annoyed when he heard this: "Fourth sister, what do you mean? You believed Kou Qingqing's words, and really thought I would throw stones at you?"
Mizuna's eyes widened suddenly.
Throwing stones at girls? What happened when she was not here just now?
Duan Yunyan tilted her head slightly: "No."
"Then why did you thank Kou Qingqing?"
The little girl looked at Duan Yunhua, and said slowly: "Even if the second sister uses stones to drive away the sparrows, there is a risk of hitting me, so I would like to thank Cousin Qing. Luying, let's go."
Seeing Duan Yunyan walking away with the maid, Duan Yunhua looked at Xin You fiercely: "Kou Qingqing, what evidence do you have that I'm going to hit Simei? Did I throw the stone out?"
Duan Yunhua's distorted expression made Xin You shake his head: "I just told my fourth cousin what I saw. As for whether my fourth cousin believes it, whether you admit it or not, that's up to you."
Duan Yunyan's reaction made Xinyou feel that it was worthwhile to "meddling his own business" this time.
"You deliberately ruined my reputation!"
"If you want to think this way, then we can talk to our grandmother."
"Who has the time to talk to you." Duan Yunhua snorted coldly, and walked away quickly.
Even if Kou Qingqing's mouth is unfounded, once it spreads, people will think whatever they want, which is not good for her.
When Duan Yunyan looked for him, the second wife, Mrs. Zhu, was entertaining people from Guchangbo's residence.
Perhaps because of the marriage between the Shaoqing Mansion and the Guchangbo Mansion, the number of people who came to pay New Year's greetings was much higher than in previous years, and some families who had little contact with each other sent servants to send invitations.
Seeing her mother busy walking around, Duan Yunyan waited obediently.
Mrs. Zhu asked her daughter, "Yan'er, why don't you go play?"
"Mother, I have something to tell you."
Seeing her daughter's serious look, Zhu couldn't help laughing: "What's the matter?"
"I was just looking at the birds on the branches in the garden. My second sister was holding a stone and was stopped by my cousin Qing. The second sister said she wanted to help me catch the birds, and my cousin Qing said that the second sister wanted to hit me..."
Zhu's face suddenly changed: "Are you hurt?"
"No, the stone fell to the ground."
"What's going on? Did you see clearly?"
Duan Yunyan shook her head: "I didn't see it. My mother taught me not to argue with others easily when I'm not sure. I'll come back to you."
"Yan'er did the right thing." Mrs. Zhu stroked her daughter's head, suppressed her anger and finished the task at hand, and went to Wanqingju.
Xin You had expected that Mrs. Zhu would come.
"Second aunt."
"Qingqing, you are a smart girl, the second aunt just said it straight. What does the second girl want to do with the stone?"
Xin You didn't hide it either: "I happened to see them when I was wandering in the garden. At that time, Duan Yunhua picked up the stone with a look of hostility, not like hitting a bird. Duan Yunhua and I have long had a rift. It may be difficult to convince people, and I will not bring this matter up in front of my grandmother. Believe it or not, the second aunt can decide for herself."
"I believe..." Zhu's eyes were heavy, and his voice was very low, "I believe..."
That was her precious daughter. Not to mention that the cousin girl was a smart and reliable person, she dared not take her daughter's safety lightly, even if there was a possibility.
"Did the fourth cousin offend Duan Yunhua?" Xin You asked with doubts.
Mr. Zhu smiled: "Did Qingqing offend your eldest aunt?"
When people’s hearts are crooked, it’s not surprising that they do anything.
Mrs. Zhu thanked Xin You solemnly, and left calmly.
