Chapter 008: What Happens When You Turn Your Back on Your Lord (1 / 2)

Mu Zi Jing went to the Moon Stream Courtyard, but she was shut out.

“Mother,” Mu Zi Jing reddened her eyes and pinched her Purple Spirit Feather Fan to enter Third Lady Cui’s house.

“What’s going on here,” Cui’s heart ached as she looked at her beloved daughter’s aggravated appearance.

Mu Zi Jing took a few steps and fell into Cui’s arms, “Mother, big sister doesn’t care about this purple spirit feather fan, my daughter kindly went to see second sister, she even claimed to be sick and sent my daughter back.”

“What” Cui’s face sank as soon as she heard it, one side pinching a handkerchief and wiping the tears from the corner of Mu Zijing’s eyes, one side said in a deep voice, “Hmph, one is arrogant and barbaric, and the other is sickly and delicate, how can it be compared to my Jing’er?”

Mu Zi Jing looked at Cui with tears in her eyes, “Mother.”

Cui soothed Mu Zijing, eyes flashed a flash of dark light, this big house and her third house is not a milk sibling brother, pressure on the third house is not wrong, why the old lady favors the second house, only the third house fell alone, she not only have to please the big house in the day, but also to curry favor with the second house, the heart of the uncomfortable, and now the big house two houses even bullied to her daughter, how can she swallow this breath.

While she was thinking about how to take it out on Mu Zi Jing, Sister Lin beside Cui walked in with her head hung down.

“Look at this face crying like a little flower cat.” Cui raised her eyes and glanced at the maid Shuang’er who was serving beside Mu Zijing.

Shuang’er hurriedly went forward to support Mu Zi Jing, “Third Miss, the slave girl serves you to wash up.”

Mu Zi Jing saw that Sister Lin was at the side, she was a person with eyes even if she was small, and with quietly drooping eyes she turned around and went to the inner room.

“Master, the Qiaoyun in the Second Lady’s courtyard is gone.” Sister Lin lowered her voice and returned.

“Qiaoyun,” Third Lady Cui frowned, “how did it not”

“Yesterday the second miss went to the smoke fall courtyard, came back and fell ill, that Qiaoyun was originally the second lady’s house head doing needlework maid, last night was gone.” Sister Lin raised her eyes to look around, continued, “Caiyun delivered the message, perhaps Qiaoyun heard words that should not be heard.”

“Shouldn’t listen to,” Cui seems to think of something, coldly laughed, “this second sister-in-law of mine is also a high-minded, no wonder into the eyes of the old madam, but unfortunately, ah, but gave birth to an uncontested daughter, looking soft and well-behaved, but it is a short-lived.”

“Master, be careful of ears on the walls.” Sister Lin cautiously reminded, “My lord, perhaps this matter is related to the eldest young lady.”

“By letting them make a scene, it’s always a basket case.” Cui’s eyes crossed a flash of light, “Where is Qiaoyun’s body?”

“This is what is even more interesting.” Sister Lin smiled with a folded face, “Nowadays, this Qiaoyun’s corpse is buried in the eldest young lady’s courtyard.”

“What,” Cui uttered in surprise, stabilizing her mind a little, “It seems that second sister-in-law is trying to put the eldest young lady to death.”

“In a few days the old madam will fast and leave the hall, I just don’t know what kind of article the second madam is going to do.” Sister Lin couldn’t figure it out for a moment.

Cui waved her hand, as long as the big house and the second house fight to the death, she only need to sit on the sidelines to reap the benefits of the fisherman is, however, remembered the daughter just now that aggrieved look, Cui’s eyes a cold, “I do not mind adding to the fire.”

“What the master means is,” Sister Lin saw Cui’s face condense with a flash of light, and hurriedly whispered, “the eldest miss treats the second miss extremely well, but only coldly neglects the young master, since the two misses are deeply attached to each other, then it might as well be…”

Cui hooked her lips in a cold smile, “Let Chun Tao handle this matter.”

“The old slave will go now.” Once Sister Lin was given the errand, she didn’t dare to delay and went to work.

The night was already late, and the lights went out early in the Smokefall Courtyard.

Rueyang rested on the low couch beside the bed, but with her eyes closed, but not asleep.
