boudoir

Chapter 13
Yanhua is usually well-clothed and well-fed, who has touched a finger of her?Who would have thought that Liuli would slap her in the face today, and she was stunned for a long time before jumping up angrily: "You dare to hit me!"

Liuli retreated steadily and sat on the armchair, holding up the gold hairpin engraved with the word "Min", as long as she rushed over, she would definitely be pierced.

"If you have the guts, jump over!"

Yan Hua really rushed towards her, Liu Li put the hairpin on her chest, and smiled slowly: "When you are smart, you only have the courage of a man! Even if I stab you, do you think you can escape the punishment of stealing things? "

Yan Hua sneered: "The hairpin is in your hands, but you say I stole it, who would believe it?"

"That's not necessarily true!" Liuli pushed her to the ground forcefully, and looked down at her: "I just need to take advantage of people's unpreparedness and quietly put the hairpin in a corner of your house, and add a letter that says Min Hua's birthday." The villain, let someone reveal it to the eldest room, now that Min Hua is feeling unwell, what do you think the eldest lady and Aunt Su will do when they find out about this?"

Yan Hua's face changed drastically, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I have no grievances with her, so why do you say I will harm her?!"

Liuli smiled: "Yes, you have no grievances with her, don't you have no grievances with me? But don't you still poison my food and beat me in public? Can't you Standing up for Yuhua and harming Min Hua? Think about how wronged Yuhua is, if she knows that everyone regards her as an instigator, what will happen to you?"

"Bitch!"

Yan Hua rushed over again and scratched her face, leaving a few bloodstains on the delicate skin with her long nails.

Liuli could completely protect her face, but she didn't hide for some reason, Yan Hua pointed to her nose: "Give me back my golden hairpin, I'll give you ten taels of silver!"

"Give me the silver, and then bring someone to catch me, a money thief?"

Liuli sneered and put the hairpin back into her bosom.

Yanhua's plan failed, she couldn't help becoming angry from embarrassment, she raised her hand to hit again, but Liuli stretched out her arm to block it.Yanhua grabbed the teapot on the table and threw it to the ground, pointing at her, "You wait, poor maid, if I don't make it so that you have no way to survive and no way to die, I will be in vain for Yanhua!"

Seeing her slam the door and leave, Liuli stretched out five fingers and scratched five red marks on the other side of her face, not caring about the burning pain.She knows that making enemies now is harmful but not beneficial, but He Yanhua's presence today will help her overcome the current test.There are already a large number of enemies waiting for her without saying anything or doing nothing, so why not add one more?
Cuiying pushed the door open and came in: "Girl!" Seeing her sitting on the ground crying, with seven or eight bloodstains on both sides of her face, which made her usually snowball-like face dripping with blood, she screamed in fright: "Here, How did this happen...how can this be done?!"

Liuli burst into tears, "I want to leave the house, I want to go home!"

Cuiying panicked: "Don't cry, don't cry, I'll send someone to report to the elder!"

She was bound to take the responsibility for what happened to Liuli, and she could see that she was really panicking, so she ran outside the door and called a woman, gave some instructions and came in immediately.Liuli cried louder and louder, and refused to scrub and apply the medicine. Cuiying was already in a hurry because she was worried about He Cun's censure.

Not long after, the old woman who reported the letter came back: "My lord is here!"

As soon as He Yuxi entered the door, Liuli gradually stopped crying, and threw herself to his knees sobbing, "Greetings to the Eldest Master. Please do me a favor, Elder Master, let Liuli go out. Liuli wants to go home."

After the conversation that night, no matter how childish Liuli pretended to be, he couldn't escape He Yu's eyes, but he also knew there was a reason for the incident, so he couldn't help but be surprised by her description: "How did this happen?"

Cuiying plopped down on her knees: "It's the servant's fault. The servant did not take good care of the girl. Just now the fifth girl came to find the girl and dismissed the servant. The servant waited for the fifth girl to come in and take a look. The girl has become like this... Please forgive me crime!"

"Yanhua?!"

He Yu said: "Why did she come here for no reason to beat someone?"

Cuiying lay on the ground and said she didn't know, Liuli sobbed and said, "Yesterday when we were eating in the Buddhist hall, the fifth girl blamed me for bumping into her and slapped me. I didn't know where I dropped something, but today she ran over and said that I stole it." .”

"No reason!"

Men in the world love face. Although Liuli is only an illegitimate daughter, He Yu's blood is flowing on her body. Now someone beat her, which hurts face, and he is also angry.

"Go, come with me to the main courtyard!"

When Liuli arrived at Anxi Hall with He Yu, Biyun Qingshang and other big maids came out to welcome her, and they were all shocked when they saw her like this.He Yu asked: "Where is the old man?" Biyun hesitated for a moment and said: "The old man just entered the room, and he is talking to the old lady right now."

He Yu frowned.Qingshang said: "The old lady is just recovering, so don't disturb her. If the old man is in a hurry, why don't you sit in the study first, and I'll report to the old man later."

He Cistanno nodded: "That's fine." Looking back at Liuli, Yue Mo also felt that this appearance was inappropriate, so he said, "You go down with Biyun, wash and apply some medicine, and then come back."

Then Biyun took Liuli, walked across the hall to the right, and entered the small courtyard.

This courtyard is the residence of the maids in the main courtyard, each of the big maids like Biyun has a room, and there is an alizarin green brocade curtain hanging on the door, and there is a warm fragrance when you enter, it turns out that it is a stove that is lit at night Before it was completely extinguished, a hibiscus-colored chrysanthemum-patterned jacket on the wooden rack was filled with fragrance.

Biyun quickly called for hot water, pointed to a soft brocade stool with emerald patterns next to the small round table of Magpie Dengzhi: "Please sit down, girl." She wiped her wound with a soft cloth dampened with water, and then opened the window to draw a picture against the wall. She took out a two-inch white porcelain vial from the big cabinet holding Simeitu, poured out some medicine and applied it to her face.

Biyun asked: "How did the girl do this? Where's Cuiying?"

Lucy shook her head.

Bi Yun vaguely sensed that something was wrong, took the water basin and went out.

Liuli guessed that she must have gone to look for Cuiying, if this matter were to be made a big deal by He Cunyu, both Cuiying and her would be implicated.But at this time, Liuli was afraid that He Cistanchi would not make a fuss.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, she took out the hairpin and took a closer look. It was just an ordinary hairpin inlaid with pearls. Apart from the word Min on the body of the hairpin, there were also some simple patterns, but on the back there were extremely small characters. It is a birthday and year number with a "horse" suffix.Liuli silently calculated that it was the seventh day of March 15 years ago.Min Hua is turning fifteen this year, could it be that the above time is her birthday?
Liuli has only heard of the custom of small civilian households engraving their children's birth time on some bronze medals or silver hairpins and carrying them with them, because there were many wars at that time, and children were often separated and bought and sold. It can also be used as a proof, and people think that a person's horoscope from birth to death cannot be wrong, otherwise he will not return to reincarnation after death, so Sheng Geng must remember it.Like Liuli's neck, there is a small silver Buddha engraved with Sheng Geng.

However, the rich families all have a special booklet to record that even if Aunt Su herself believed in the gift of the market, so she specially made such a hairpin as a commemoration, but what is Yan Hua doing with Min Hua's Sheng Geng hairpin?What's more, that year was not the year of the horse.
