"Girl, do you remember?" Grandma Chang looked at Liu Ruosi and asked.

Liu Ruosi nodded. Now, she remembered something vaguely. She remembered that at that time, Liu Ruoyuan, Liu Ruojuan, and the eldest sister were all there with the nannies and little girls who were waiting for them.

Playing under the wisteria, she and her eldest sister pinched flowers and said they wanted to fill the flower basket. Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan seemed to have some kind of argument together. After that, they didn't hear the two people's voices for a while. Liu Ruosi remembered that she looked up and looked up.

After a quick glance, Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan were no longer under the wisteria, and there were still two nannies and two most confidant little girls.

Liu Ruosi didn't pay attention at that time. Later, the eldest sister discovered that Liu Ruojuan was missing. By that time, Liu Ruoyuan had already returned with someone.

Liu Ruoyuan was rescued from the water, and a doctor was invited to save her life. After Liu Ruoyuan regained consciousness, she said that Liu Ruoyuan pushed her into the water. Of course Liu Ruoyuan did not admit it, and Liu Ruoyuan's nanny and girls also testified. Liu Ruoyuan also said,

She has been with Liu Ruosi, the eldest sister, and has never left the wisteria trellis. The eldest sister and the nuns and girls who serve the eldest sister have confirmed this.

At that time, Grandma Chang made an excuse to protect Liu Ruosi, saying nothing.

Liu Ruojuan said that she was pushed into the water by Liu Ruoyuan. If half of the people believe this statement, Liu Ruojuan also said something else, which makes people doubt the authenticity of what she said.

Liu Ruojuan also said at the time that Mrs. Liu was not her biological mother, and Liu Ruoyuan was not her biological sister.

It was this sentence that made people suspicious of Liu Ruojuan, and they didn't know who put it forward. They said that Liu Ruojuan might have been fascinated by something unclean in the garden. The next step was to ask an expert to do it.

"At that time, the second girl was not the temperament she is now." Grandma Chang sighed, "She was really smart, sharp, and also loved to talk."

"Yeah, it's not like now, just like a shadow, all day long just following the big sister. When the big sister says east, she doesn't dare to go west. She's afraid that if the big sister says the moon is square, she will have to say it too.

." Liu Ruosi said. At that time, Liu Ruojuan often competed with Liu Ruoyuan and competed for favor in front of Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu.

The expert who was invited did this and cut down the crabapple tree. Liu Ruojuan recovered from her fever and regained consciousness. She no longer said that Liu Ruoyuan had pushed her, nor did she say that Mrs. Liu was not her biological mother.

It was after that that Liu Ruojuan's temperament changed dramatically and she became the taciturn and shadow-like person she is now.

"Mommy. I remember that the nanny who is following the eldest sister and the second sister now is not the two nannies who nursed them before, right?" Liu Ruosi couldn't remember clearly, so she asked Aunt Chang

Ask for proof.

"The girl remembers it right. That incident happened. Everyone around the eldest girl and the second girl was punished. The two nannies who had served them since childhood were kicked out, as well as several little girls who had been serving them closely.

They were also sold. The people serving the eldest girl and the second girl now were all re-assigned by the eldest wife later." Grandma Chang said.

Because of this, few people remember what happened back then, and no one talks about it anymore, and the truth has long been lost.

I just didn't expect that it would be Liu Ruoyuan who would bring up this matter again.

"It's a pity about that crabapple." Liu Ruosi said.

"Shh," Nanny Chang hurriedly signaled Liu Ruosi to whisper, "Girl, please don't mention these two words again. Don't ask why. The old slave doesn't know...it's not what the girl should know.

It’s better not to know.”

"Mommy, I understand." Liu Ruosi nodded, "I won't say anything again after leaving this room."

Begonia is almost a taboo in the Liu family. Ever since Liu Ruojuan was bewitched by the Begonia Flower Demon and fell into the water, the Liu family had rumors of being haunted in the garden. It was not until later that they hired an expert to practice it, and the begonias next to the wisteria trellis were cut down.

, the crabapple trees in several other places in the mansion were also uprooted and replanted with other flowers and trees.

However, the area next to the wisteria trellis has never been able to survive since the begonias were cut down and any other flowers and trees were planted. In the end, there was no choice but to move a lake stone and put it on top.

Locally, Liu Ruosi vaguely remembered that she had heard someone say that something else was buried under the lake rocks.

After moving the lake rocks, Liu Ruojuan naturally recovered a long time ago, and the rumors of the garden being haunted disappeared.

However, Haitang is still forbidden to speak.

When she was a child, Liu Ruosi listened in a trance to the whispers of the rough women in the garden, mentioning Begonia. However, the Begonia they were talking about was not a flower or tree, but a person. She was the most powerful girl around Mrs. Liu.

, the name is Haitang.

Liu Ruosi had never seen that Begonia, nor had she ever heard anyone mention it directly. She seemed to have just disappeared, as if she had never existed.

Liu Ruosi rested for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, she went to Mrs. Liu Er's room. Mr. Liu Er had already come back and brought Liu Yuwen over from the study room in front. Liu Ruosi followed Liu Yu

While Wen was playing chess records, Mr. Liu Er went to the small study to write a letter. Mrs. Liu Er called Aunt Chang aside and spoke in a low voice.

"...The eldest lady suddenly mentioned this in front of the old lady. I'm afraid I haven't discussed it with the eldest lady." Aunt Chang frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "Just now I asked the fifth day and the seventh day to go out and inquire.

My wife’s side is very unusual..."

Just as Aunt Chang said, the atmosphere in Mrs. Liu's room at this moment is different from usual.

Liu Ruoyuan's eyes were red and she was sitting on the kang wiping her tears. Grandma Liu was comforting her, but Mrs. Liu was sitting opposite Liu Ruoyuan, her face flushed with anger.

"...You are becoming more and more arrogant now. What can you just say in front of the old lady? You don't discuss it with me first. Those words are okay to say!" Seeing Liu Ruoyuan crying like this, if it was normal,

Mrs. Liu had already softened her heart, but today was different. Mrs. Liu was so angry that she did not soften her heart so easily.

"...I didn't say anything. It's true, and I'm not making it up." Liu Ruoyuan was unconvinced and was still defending, "I'm doing it for everyone's own good. The second sister is so crazy today. Although my mother taught her a lesson, but

I feel dissatisfied when I look at her, and I can't guarantee that she won't go crazy again next time. If she is out there, it's the next best thing whether she survives or not. We all have a shameful face. Could it be that she is the one who has to pay for all of us?

superior."

Liu Ruoyuan spoke plausibly, and she felt that she had done the right thing.

"You, are you doing it for the big guy, or just for yourself?" Mrs. Liu said angrily, "Ask yourself. What is it for? Is it because you are afraid that your sister will get ahead of you and ruin your good deeds?

.”

Mrs. Liu usually doted on Liu Ruoyuan very much, and it was very rare for her to criticize her unceremoniously like this. Liu Ruoyuan couldn't bear it when she was told something that was on her mind, and cried harder and harder. She carried Mrs. Liu on her back, and talked to Old Mrs. Liu

Those words were indeed meant to cut off Liu Ruojuan's retreat, and she was afraid that Mrs. Liu would not agree. Mrs. Liu/grandma tried to persuade her with kind words, but it had no effect at all.

"Why are you so impatient!" Mrs. Liu frowned. "Don't you think that mother has no idea? She will naturally make arrangements. The best will be given to you. Your second sister will not hinder you. Mother will do it for her."

Make other plans... If you say this, the old lady won't let your second sister see anyone. What will happen to your second sister in the future? You don't want her to see anyone. But have you ever thought about what would happen if this matter spread?

We went out, and she said no more kisses. You, you girl, are so mad at me."

Mrs. Liu told all of Liu Ruoyuan's thoughts, and Liu Ruoyuan inevitably felt guilty in front of Mrs. Liu. Moreover, she had already done the things, and Mrs. Liu had given such instructions. Mrs. Liu was powerless, and Liu Ruoyuan felt that there was nothing left.

It is inevitable to have worries and joy in the heart.

Liu Ruoyuan's crying gradually became quieter.

"...I just brought it up and won't let the second sister go out for the time being. This will save her from giving up and causing trouble to everyone. After a while, I will talk to the old lady and it will be fine." Liu Ruoyuan said in a low voice.

Mrs. Liu sighed and frowned. She was not relieved by Liu Ruoyuan's words.

"I don't know how high the sky is! It's been so many years, but you suddenly bring me up, who knows what trouble it will cause! It's really my injustice." Mrs. Liu said, and at the same time she told Mrs. Liu/Grandma, "Go and make arrangements.

, Even though the old lady has spoken, we can't just relax. Don't let today's incident spread... Pay some money from the accounting room, no, don't go to the accounting room, come out from my private room..."

As he was talking, he heard footsteps in the yard, and the little girl reported that the uncle was back.

Mrs. Liu immediately sat up straight and called Liu Yujiang to come in.

"How's it going? Is there any news?" When Liu Yujiang came in and saluted Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu couldn't wait for Liu Yujiang to sit down and asked impatiently.

"There is no news. I spent a lot of money to get the news from the eldest princess's personal attendant... The young marquis accompanied the eldest princess to the temple to do meritorious deeds. He has been doing good deeds in the back hall for the eldest daughter.

The princess knelt to pray. She had been kneeling for a long time. When she got up, she accidentally bumped into the corner of the altar table... Nothing else happened." Liu Yujiang hurriedly replied to Mrs. Liu.

"Is it true?" After hearing this, Mrs. Liu hurriedly asked again.

"It's confirmed after asking." Liu Yujiang glanced at Mrs. Liu before continuing, "I guess they knew that we were going to find out the truth, so they deliberately let their close friends spread such words to reassure us."

"I feel relieved now." Mrs. Liu breathed a sigh of relief.

When things like Liu Ruojuan happen, the Liu family wants to cover up the past, but it also depends on what the eldest princess means. Now it is certain that the eldest princess does not want to pursue the matter, and just pretends that it has not happened. This

Naturally, it suits Mrs. Liu’s wishes.

"Then ask, has the eldest princess revealed anything to our family, your eldest sister, or your eldest sister?" Mrs. Liu then asked Liu Yujiang.

"That... doesn't happen." Liu Yujiang said, "Madam, there is no need to worry too much. With the eldest sister's appearance, only the eldest sister can pick people. Who can choose her? Since the eldest princess has no bad reputation, then

That’s a good thing.”

"I'm afraid, because after such a commotion, although the eldest princess doesn't care about it for the time being, she will be annoyed with us in her heart." Mrs. Liu said.

If this is the case, although nothing big will happen, the marriage of Liu Ruoyuan into the Hou Mansion will come to nothing. This is what Mrs. Liu is worried about.

"Madam, there is no need to worry." Liu Yujiang said, "I have never seen what kind of person the eldest princess is and what kind of things she does. We treat this as a big event. The eldest princess may not see it. The eldest princess wants to be the little marquis.

Looking for a match, in this capital, there is no one who is really worthy of being a noble family, and there is such a good girl. Apart from our family, there is no one else. In my opinion, only the eldest sister has such talent and can support

It’s time to come to the Hou’s Mansion...it’s not that easy to fulfill the orders of the Hou’s Mansion.”

Liu Yujiang's words touched the hearts of Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoyuan. Mrs. Liu showed a comfortable smile on her face, and Liu Ruoyuan on the side had stopped crying for a long time. There was some pride on her face. She looked at Liu Yujiang,

It becomes more pleasing to the eye and friendly.

With her mind relaxed, Mrs. Liu then remembered to let Liu Yujiang sit down while Mrs. Liu/grandma personally served tea.

"Why is the eldest sister crying?" Liu Yujiang asked when he saw Liu Ruoyuan crying as soon as he entered the door.

"It's not because of the second girl's matter." Mrs. Liu said lightly, and Grandma Liu and Liu Ruoyuan also kept their mouths shut in a tacit understanding, not mentioning a word about Cai Cai's matter.

"Although it was the second girl who did something wrong, the cause of this incident was the third girl's trouble." Mrs. Liu said, "I wanted to go to see the guests, but she didn't go. If we make such a fuss again,

The eldest princess holds a grudge, whether she has the eldest daughter or the third one. But it is all written down on the heads of us big guys. What is going on with these three girls? Recently, I have become increasingly confused... Could it be that she knows?

Our plan is to break up this marriage?"

Because they wanted to hide Liu Ruojuan's matter, Mrs. Liu and others could not bring up the matter of Liu Ruosi's injury to Han Qing. At this time, they started talking among themselves.
