Chapter 16 016: Who Can't Play the White Lotus?

Seeing Chang Xi crying like this, the Fourth Madam Qin and other onlookers couldn't help but turn red eyes, obviously emotionally moved.

The Qin family even whispered to Nanny Zhong, "This Chang San'e is a kind and righteous person."

Nanny Zhong hurriedly agreed, but she was also shocked in her heart. She had mixed feelings about Chang Xi, and she never let go of her secret vigilance, but she never thought that she would cry like this because of a dead godmother. , it can be seen that she is very affectionate.

At the moment, people who value affection will be more likely to gain the favor of others.

Chang Xi's performance successfully moved everyone, and when the two clerks asked her something again, their tone was not as cold as before.

"Did you give your godmother 100 taels of silver before?"

"Yes," Chang Xi replied in a hoarse voice while wiping away tears, "That's the money my mother-in-law Zhu Shi gave me for self-defense. The godmother always thinks about me. This is the money I gave her. This is the money I gave her. Many people know about it..." So she didn't need to tell lies.

The two yamen guards looked at each other, and the words were similar to what they asked, but one of them still had doubts, "Your mother-in-law, Mrs. Zhu, said that you stole the money from the Xu family. colluding..."

Chang Xi hurriedly made a sad expression, "Mother-in-law... how could she say that?" This time she looked like she was about to cry, and she looked extremely pitiful.

What a joke, who can't play White Lotus?

"Since I married into their Xu family, my mother-in-law is the first in everything. She wants me to go east, but I dare not go west. The neighbors can testify for me. How can I get money from her?" Wiping away tears, "With my body, I can't beat their mother and son..."

The neighbors around know what kind of life Chang San'e lived in Xu's house. When the two yamen heard that the words were consistent with the neighbors in the neighborhood, they looked at Chang Xi's thin body, and they were indeed not as good as Xu's mother and son. Jing Zhuang, presumably the mother-in-law deliberately slandered her daughter-in-law, so she didn't ask any more questions and quickly said goodbye.

The fourth wife, Mrs. Qin, ordered Nanny Zhu to see off the guests before taking Chang Xi back to the backyard.

Along the way, Chang Xi couldn't hide her sad expression.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Qin comforted her, "The dead are gone, and the living should mourn even more."

Chang Xi turned her head to look at the Qin family, with tears in her eyes and said: "To tell you the truth, Ma'am, I married into the city from the countryside, and got a lot of care from my godmother. Although I didn't kill Boren, Boren died because of me. In my heart I'm always sorry, if I knew I wouldn't have given the 100 taels of silver to my godmother that day, maybe she's still alive and well..."

The Qin family only read Chang Xi for a few days, and she spoke like a lady from a great family, and she was a little more satisfied with her in her heart. Only an excellent woman can give birth to an excellent offspring.

"Don't blame yourself too much. It's not your fault. It can only be said that things have backfired and the world has gone from bad to worse."

Chang Xi succeeded in attracting Qin Shi to completely favor her, and then she put forward her request at the right time, "Ma'am, I have a heartless request..." She looked difficult to speak, but expressed it firmly, "Is it still true?" I hope Madam can agree..."

Qin's affection for Chang Xi was overwhelmed, so she said, "Say it."

Chang Xi knelt down and said, "Madam, I want to go out of the mansion to offer incense to the old lady, Godmother, and hope she can enter the Paradise of Paradise as soon as possible."

In ancient times, people who died like Zhao Po would generally think that their souls would not be at peace after death.

Qin didn't expect Chang Xi to be so considerate of someone like Zhao Po, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that she was too pure and kind, but such a pure and kind person is good, and she will be able to control it in the future.

Little did he know that Chang Xi was only seeking a chance to get out of the mansion by retreating.

Having made up her mind, she helped Chang Xi up herself, "Silly boy, why can't you still think about your godmother like this, why should I not agree?"

"Mrs. Xie." Chang Xi immediately saluted happily.

Qin patted Chang Xi's hand, "I'll let Nanny Zhong make arrangements, and you go and get ready."

Chang Xi once again expressed her gratitude in tears, and then got up to leave.

Acting and doing a full set, this time she had a sad face on the way back to Xiaokuayuan.

Xiaotao and Dongli were so moved that they wiped away their tears for countless times, and felt even more distressed by Mrs. Chang's difficulty.

As soon as they returned to Xiaokuayuan, without Chang Xi's instructions, Xiaotao and Dongli immediately dug out the plain clothes and brought them back for Chang Xi to change into. They also took off the pearl hairpins on their heads and replaced them with simple silver ornaments.

When going to condolences, the dress is also quite particular, and it must not be festive.

Now Chang Xi is quite relieved about the ability of these two big maids to handle affairs. See, this person can save a lot of worry if he is well trained.

Dongli's qualifications are older than Xiaotao's, and she has more background than Xiaotao, so all the servants in this Xiaokuayuan are headed by her. When she left, she told Xiaosu and Yunduo, the second-class maids, to take care of the yard.

Xiao Su and Yun Duo didn't dare to neglect, they hurriedly nodded in response.

Chang Xi hardly uttered a word throughout the whole process. In her previous life, she was a person in a high position who gave orders, so she would not handle everything personally in management. Not only would it be inefficient, but it would also exhaust herself to death.

Seeing that Dongli has made arrangements, she can just save trouble.

This time, a small sedan chair for two people was arranged for leaving the mansion. Chang Xi looked at it, said nothing, and sat in with Dong Li's support.

This sedan chair is much narrower than the sedan chair that entered the mansion last time, but it is still not cramped when sitting alone, so she is quite satisfied in her heart, so she raised the curtain on the sedan chair and said to Nanny Zhong, "Please, Madam Zhong." gone."

"This is Madam's order, I just followed it, what's the trouble?" Nanny Zhong now had a smiling face facing Chang Xi, "Miss Chang, you're being polite."

Chang Xi has always been precise about other people's emotions, and she can see that Nanny Zhong's attitude towards her has changed drastically.

Although he was polite on the face before, his attitude was not polite, but now he is really polite.

So, at this moment, she bowed slightly to Nanny Zhong, and she had to let Nanny Zhong get used to the new way of getting along with her.

Grandma Zhong didn't care about Chang Xi's slightly different attitude from before, but smiled more courteously, "This time you will be accompanied by Nanny Luo, you can just tell her directly if you have anything to do."

Nanny Luo hurriedly bowed to Chang Xi, "I've seen Mrs. Chang."

"Nurse Luo please hurry up, I can't do it."

"You deserve it, you deserve it."

Nanny Luo is Nanny Zhong's subordinate, so she is also a human sperm. Now that Mrs. Chang has the madam's favor, how dare she put on airs in front of her?
After exchanging a few pleasantries, I just got up the sedan chair.

Chang Xi did not pull up the car curtain completely, but left a small gap, which allowed her to breathe and see the scenery outside the window.

Those who followed also wisely refrained from jumping out and saying something that would make Chang Xi unhappy, it's human nature to act according to the wind.

The sedan chair didn't go out through the gate of Xie's house, but walked through the corner door beside it.

Chang Xi turned her head and looked coldly at the closed door of Jiefu. One day, she would walk out through this door openly.

At this time, Chang Xi didn't see a half-grown boy in the corner suddenly staring at himself in the sedan chair, and then ran after him.

"Chang's, Chang's..."

Chang Xi has always been called Mrs. Chang in this mansion. When she first heard the name Chang's, she didn't realize that she was calling herself.

When she came to her senses, the light outside the car window was blocked by a half-grown boy, and what she saw was a somewhat familiar but unfamiliar face.
