Chapter 230 Dinner Party
Huang Chunhua looked at the money bag on the tray, opened it to take a look, and saw a piece of gold inside, her eyes lit up, and she counted it immediately.
A full 20 yuan gold coins!
This Aunt Xue is really generous!
Not to mention gold coins as soon as you make a move, and there are still 20 yuan gold coins!
It's hard to say whether she has ever taken a gold coin from Sima Lianhe's hand over the years!
Seeing the greed in Huang Chunhua's eyes, Aunt Xue squinted her eyes and continued: "Madam, Xue Ning has just taken over as the housekeeper, so she doesn't have a lot of money, so I can only give so much to honor you, Madam."
"Enough, enough, you are careful, I saw it!" Huang Chunhua smiled and rolled her eyes.
"Ma'am, she has been in charge of the family for many years, and there are quite a few good things in her private treasury. What are Xue Ning's on the ground..." Aunt Xue smiled and casually mentioned something.
Huang Chunhua pursed her lips, snorted coldly and said, "No matter how many times, I won't see that bitch use it to honor me!"
Aunt Xue lowered her eyes and did not speak.
Huang Chunhua thought about going to Chu Lianqing's place again, and now that she had received the money, she also knew Aunt Xue's attitude, and she didn't stay here for long, she got up and was about to leave.
"I won't disturb your rest, let's go first."
Aunt Xue sent Huang Chunhua out, looked at her back, squinted her eyes, and ordered: "Go and follow the old lady and see where she went."
"Yes!" Xiaoqing nodded slightly and followed.
In the morning, Sima Lianhe opened his eyes and woke up slowly, and said, "Give me water."
However, after finishing speaking, there was no response from outside for a long while, Sima Lianhe frowned, and when he lifted the bed curtain, he saw two little maidservants sleeping on the bed with their heads on the night watch, Zheng Xiang!
"You..." Sima Lianhe was about to get angry when suddenly a tinge of red burst into her eyes.
Sima Lianhe was slightly taken aback, his gaze stayed on the bright red area, and he saw clearly the series of footprints left by Yunmengxi last night, spreading from the door to the bedside.
Brightly reminded her that "someone" entered her room last night and even came to the bedside.
"Ah!" Sima Lianhe hugged the quilt tightly and screamed loudly.
The two little maids who were keeping watch at night were awakened by Yunmengxi's drowsy screams from Sima Lianhe.
"Ma'am, what's wrong with Ma'am?!" The little maid looked at Sima Lianhe who couldn't stop screaming in panic, and asked hastily.
"This, what is this?!" Sima Lianhe retreated into the corner of the bed, away from the string of footprints beside the bed.
Xia Liu, who was waiting outside the door to wash Sima Lianhe, heard the voice, and hurriedly knocked on the door and asked, "Ma'am, what's the matter, Ma'am?"
The little girl heard the movement at the door and wanted to open it for Xia Liu, but it was okay if she didn't turn her head. As soon as she turned her head, she saw a series of "bloody footprints" and stepped on one of her own feet. She immediately screamed in fright, her ass pissed and crawled aside
Xia Liu hurriedly turned around outside the door, and hurriedly called someone to break the door open, but when the door was opened, the sun outside shone, and a string of bright red footprints were printed in front of everyone.
"Ah! Blood! Blood!" A group of people fled in a panic, leaving only Xia Liu standing at the door with weak feet.
Seeing the door opened, Sima Lianhe didn't care about anything else, and immediately rushed off the bed and ran out, and the two little maids followed Sima Lianhe out of the room.
"Husband, ma'am, this..." Xia Liu looked at the bloody footprints with a terrified look on her face, she couldn't even say a word when she looked at Sima Lianhe.
They had learned from Huang Chunhua before that Bai Wanting had come back for revenge, but since they hadn't seen it, they were lucky that the other party would not be able to find her.
However, this fluke was directly broken today!
"Go, let's go!" Sima Lianhe felt the sun shining on her body from outside, and felt the warmth, and then she felt a breath of air, and helped Xia Liu to escape from the bedroom in a hurry.
Xia Liu supported Sima Lianhe to sit down in a room again, and asked someone to bring clothes for her to change, and then asked: "Madam, what should we do now?"
"Have you found the master yet?" Sima Lianhe asked anxiously looking at Xia Liu with fear in his eyes.
"This..." Xia Liu shook her head in embarrassment and said, "Not yet. It is said that the Buddha in the Jinguang Temple outside the city showed his authentic works, and all the masters were attracted there, and the rest are all liars."
"Outside the city, let's go outside the city now!" Sima Lianhe said immediately upon hearing this.
"Ma'am, you forgot, we are now grounded by the master, and Aunt Xue is staring at us, it is impossible for us to leave the mansion!" Xia Liu pursed her lips and said with an ugly expression.
She also wants to leave, but the problem is that they can't even leave because of their current situation!
"This..." Sima Lianhe took a sip of hot tea with a teacup in his hand, his heart calmed down slightly, and he looked at Xia Liu and ordered:
"Send someone to wash those things first..."
If the bloody footprints were left in her bedroom, I'm afraid it would cause even more commotion.
"Yes..." Xia Liu nodded slightly, and sent a few courageous servants to force them into the room to clean.
"Mom, what's the matter? There were chickens and dogs jumping around in the yard early in the morning?!" Chu Yingya's room was not far from Sima Lianhe's. She was awakened by the noise she made in the morning, and she came to question dissatisfied. .
"Yingya, you, are you alright in your room?" Sima Lianhe immediately asked after seeing Chu Yingya.
"What's the matter?" Chu Yingya frowned and asked in confusion.
Hearing that Chu Yingya said nothing was wrong, Sima Lianhe was slightly relieved.
"Ma'am, then, those footprints can't be washed off!"
However, Sima Lianhe hadn't fully breathed out yet, and a servant came over to report in panic.
"What?!" Sima Lianhe's eyes widened, and he said incredulously, "How is it possible!"
The bloody footprints are just such a thin layer, how could they not be washed off? !
"It's true!" The servant said, wanting to cry without tears.
It was already very reluctant to be forced to face such a horrible thing, who knew that not only could it not be washed off, but Sima Lianhe didn't seem to believe it.
"Mother, what are you talking about?" Chu Yingya looked at Sima Lianhe puzzled, not understanding what they were talking about.Sima Lianhe pursed her lips tightly, and decided to go to the room to see for herself.
A large puddle of saponin water was splashed on the floor of the bedroom, and a servant was wiping it desperately with a rag, but I don't know how the bloody footprints were printed on it, and none of the marks were wiped off!
After only one glance, Sima Lianhe didn't dare to look any further.
"Ah!" Chu Yingya saw the scene in the room clearly, screamed in fright, pointed at the bloody footprints on the ground, and asked tremblingly: "Mother, what are these things?"
"It's over, Bai Wanting is here, she has come to seek revenge on me!"
Sima Lianhe couldn't care less about talking to Chu Yingya, so she sat on the ground limply, her eyes full of fear.
In her mind, she recalled Bai Wanting's bleeding after giving birth to Chu Zhuang.
After Huang Chunhua came out of Aunt Xue's yard, she went directly to Chu Lianqing.
Chu Lianqing, who was guarded by a large group of people last night and had a good night's rest, looked much better this morning and was able to get up from the bed, but his body was still weak.
When Huang Chunhua came over, Chu Fengmao was already waiting inside.
"Lian Qing, when are you going to do it?" Huang Chunhua looked at Chu Lianqing and asked.
Now she can't wait to deal with Sima Lianhe, and then take the money in her private treasury.
"Just today, I'm going to prepare a dinner tonight. I'm just saying that I'm going to cleanse you up. Then I'll let Sima Lianhe come over..." Chu Lianqing coughed and said.
Huang Chunhua was stunned, and immediately nodded in response, "I see..."
At the banquet, Huang Chunhua deliberately made things difficult for Sima Lianhe, and then gave Chu Lianqing a chance to hold her accountable. "Chunan, go and inform Sima Lianhe now!" Chu Lianqing looked at Chu Nan and ordered.
"Yes!" Chu Nan got the order and went out immediately without delay.
Arriving at Sima Lianhe's courtyard, before he entered, he heard panicked voices inside. Chu Nan became aware and saw the people inside rushing around with buckets in their hands.
After just watching for a while, Chu Nan didn't see any mystery. After thinking about it, he walked in.
"Director Chu!" Seeing Chu Nan coming in, the servants immediately recognized him.
Chu Nan is the person who follows Chu Lianqing and is the head of the Chu Mansion. His position is higher than that of the housekeeper who followed Sima Lianhe before.
"Ma'am, Manager Chu Nan is here, can you let her see what's going on here?"
Hearing the notification from the servants, Xia Liu immediately helped Sima Lianhe up from the ground.
"Chunan? Why is he here?" Sima Lianhe was slightly taken aback, looked at Xia Liu and asked.
Shaking her head, Xia Liu ordered someone to close the door of the bedroom, and then guessed, "I'm afraid the master has some orders.
"Well, go see him." Sima Lianhe took a deep breath, looked at Chu Yingya and said, "Yingya, go back to your room first!
"Yes!" Chu Yingya was frightened, she didn't dare to say anything, and ran away immediately.
Xia Liu supported Sima Lianhe and walked cautiously to the living room to meet Chu Nan.
"Director Chu, what's the matter here?" Sima Lianhe tried his best to make his face look natural, but he could still see the embarrassment hidden inside.
"The master prepared a dinner to welcome the old lady and the others, so I specially invited the lady and the young lady to attend." Chu Nan looked at Sima Lianhe and said respectfully.
"Dinner?" Sima Lianhe took a deep breath, nodded his head and said: "I see, you go back and tell the master, I will go."
"Yes!" After Chu Nan notified Sima Lianhe, he didn't wait long, turned around and left.
After Chu Nan left, Xia Liu said worriedly: "Ma'am, how can the lady attend the dinner party?"
Now that Chu Yingya's face is full of scars, she can't go out to meet people at all!
"Let's just say that her injuries haven't healed yet..."
Sima Lianhe's current thoughts were not on the dinner party at all. She took Xia Liu's hand and said, "Go and ask Pang Shan to find the master. No matter how much it costs, you must find him for me as soon as possible!"
The bloody footprints appeared directly next to her bed, so next time the other party will directly kill her? !
"Yes, ma'am!" Xia Liu responded, and immediately sent someone to notify Pang Shan.
"Bai Wanting, Bai Wanting, why did you come back?!" Sima Lianhe's eyes flashed with resentment, and he murmured, "Why don't you die obediently?!"
