"Miss Wu..."

Ren Yao stopped and looked back.

Mother Zhou stood at the door between the Ming and the left, calling her softly.

Looking at the inner room of the left side, Ren Yaoqi made a gesture to mammy Zhou, who understood and followed Ren Yaoqi to the west room.

"Mother, she always sleeps lightly. Once she wakes up, she can hardly fall asleep again. Mammy, you may as well speak here. " Ren Yao period.

Mother Zhou looked at Ren Yaoqi's exclamation with a smile: "Miss Wu, you It's really changed a lot. The wife is very happy, and so is the maid. "

Ren Yaoqi smiles, which shows how painful she was when she was a child? The memory of her childhood has been very vague, because she carries too much pain, she always avoids to remind herself.

"What do you want to say to me, mammy?" Ren Yaohua has gone back first. Ren Yaoqi thinks that mother Zhou may have something to say to her alone. This is the first time.

Mother Zhou thought about it and said, "when I went to the clean room to check, I found a few lines of footprints on the snow outside."

"Whose footprints can mammy tell? I remember my mother asked for hot water twice at noon Ren Yaoqi asked.

Mother Zhou nodded: "it's not easy to distinguish. The thick shoes in the backyard make the women wear thick cotton shoes in order to keep warm. Most of the servant girls like to look good, but they don't like the thick soled cotton shoes. They often serve in the house, so they prefer to be frozen and wear embroidered cotton shoes. But just now I saw a pair of boots in those footprints

Ren Yaoqi heard the speech and said with a smile of interest: "mammy observed carefully, but you know the owner of the boots?"

Mother Zhou nodded her head affirmatively: "Mrs. Guan, who is in charge of firewood, wears a pair of deer skin boots today. Because the boots are too small to fit her feet, she walks a little When the servants secretly laughed at her, they heard her

"Mrs. Guan?" Ren Yaoqi thought for a while, vaguely remembering that she was a long, strong woman, who had some contacts with mother Zhu in her room on weekdays.

"Her daughter is a second-class servant girl in Miss nine's room." After mother Zhou came back, she quickly found out the details of the people and horses in the yard after she was reminded by Ren Yao.

"Sister nine?" In the period of Ren Yao.

She had guessed that the eavesdropper must have something to do with aunt Fang. After all, people in other rooms would not be interested in chatting between their mother and daughter. Just according to her other aunt's understanding, aunt Fang should not have sent such a careless woman to listen to the corner of the wall blatantly. It's probably this woman who wants to please that side of the wall.

"Why didn't mammy say that before?" Ren Yaoqi asked.

Mother Zhou hesitated for a moment and then sighed: "Miss five, you know the temper of the third miss. If she knew who the eavesdropper was, she would make trouble. I'm still afraid that she will be trapped by others. Therefore, I still want to keep silent for the time being. Although you are young, Miss Wu, you know the priorities. In addition, you have just said that you are going to deal with those people. The maid wants to tell you that, and it will be convenient for you to do things in the future. "

Ren Yao period nodded: "I know, then do not say it." Then she asked again, "does mammy know who this Guan lady doesn't agree with on weekdays?"

Mammy Zhou looked at Ren Yaoqi in surprise. Seeing that she was only smiling, she could not see any other meaning. She did not ask any more questions in a hurry. After thinking about it, she nodded and said, "there is a lady Liu who is in charge of hot water in the backyard."

Ren Yaoqi was just asking casually. After all, mother Zhou didn't come back with Li for a few days. She didn't know about this, but she still underestimated mother Zhou.

"Is it the lady Liu whose niece is in charge of the accounts with Mrs. five?"

"Yes, she is. The woman in charge of hot water can also use hot water to exchange some money from generous servant girls. The woman in charge of firewood and charcoal, however, could not get much benefit because of the sufficient supply of ordinary firewood and charcoal in the mansion, but the high-quality silver charcoal was strictly controlled, and the open fire was forbidden in the servants' rooms. Mrs. Guan was very dissatisfied with Mrs. Liu, who was transferred from the outer courtyard, and got a better job than her. She was often in a dilemma when Mrs. Liu asked for firewood, and they didn't like each other. Although they didn't make a scene, the people in the yard knew that they didn't agree with each other

Ren Yaoqi pondered for a moment and nodded to mother Zhou: "I know. Thank you for telling me this."

Her time to "wake up" is still short. Although she secretly inquired about the people in the yard, she could not be as clear and meticulous as mammy Zhou.

Seeing that Ren Yaoqi had already stood up, mother Zhou couldn't help asking, "Miss Wu, seeing that the new year is coming, do you have a plan? If you let the three young ladies make trouble at that time, I'm afraid our crape myrtle yard will suffer a lot. " Mother Zhou always remembers what Ren Yaoqi analyzed last time, otherwise she would not let those people pester in the crape myrtle yard.

Ren Yao period Chong Zhou mammy a smile: "mammy don't worry, maybe soon need your help."

Mother Zhou quickly said, "where do you speak, where do you need a maid? Just tell me."Ren Yaoqi came out of Li's main room. When he passed the West courtyard, he found that there was the sound of broken wind and rhythmic drinking.

Ren Yao's body couldn't help but get a meal. She stood outside the gate of the West Cross courtyard for a long time. She didn't come back to herself until her servant girl sneezed coldly.

"I'm going to see Dad." She said to herself.

As soon as he walked into the courtyard, Ren Yaoqi saw Ren Shimin holding a three foot long sword in the snow in the courtyard, dancing like a dragon. The pure white broad sleeve robe flies with his sword posture, and the blade occasionally reflects a dazzling snow light. It seems like something is happening.

Seeing Ren Yaoqi come in, Ren Shimin pulls a sword flower and stops the sword power. He says to Ren Yaoqi, "Yao Yao, is Dad's swordsmanship improved?"

If it had been, Ren Yaoqi would have praised him.

However, Ren Yaoqi just looked at the sword in his hand without expression and said in a soft voice: "it's very beautiful, but it's all showy."

Ren Shimin disagrees: "what do children know? Even those escorts who saw my swordsmanship only boasted when they went to Beijing this time. They fought with me several times, but they were all defeated by me. "

Ren Yaoqi looked at his father, closed his eyes and said definitely, "Dad, my daughter is not lying to you. Your swordsmanship is just a fancy. You can't stand a blow in front of the real martial arts people. "
