Chang Huan stared at Xie Baitang fascinated.

Xie Baitang said, "What? Do I look weird?"

Chang Huan hurriedly lowered his eyebrows and waved his hands, "No, madam, don't misunderstand. I just think that madam is beautiful, with a good heart and a good personality."

Xie Baitang said with a hearty smile, "Ah, you little girl, you have a sweet mouth."

Chang Huan said seriously, "Your servant is telling the truth, ma'am, it's really... very beautiful." Chang Huan admired the word "beautiful", but was full of guilt, and said it aloud.

At this moment, looking at Xie Baitang, Chang Huan thought of Lin Yuer.They are about the same age, and their looks have fascinated thousands of people.But it gives people the feeling that one is as warm as the sun, and the other is as cold as frost.

Xie Baitang said kindly, "You like flowers very much?"

Chang Huan nodded and said, "Yeah. I used to grow flowers and herbs when I was at home. Some flowers were picked off petals, dried and put into sachets, and some wormwood and mint were added. Not only does it have a light and refreshing fragrance, but it can also repel mosquitoes..."

Xie Baitang kept staring at Chang Huan fascinated, as if he was looking at another person through Chang Huan.

Chang Huan was stared at uncomfortably, and asked, "Ma'am, what are you thinking?"

Xie Baitang came back to his senses, and said softly, "The expression you spoke just now is very similar to my daughter. When she speaks, she is just like you just now, talking endlessly and enjoying it."

Chang Huan pretended to be stupid and said, "Madam, isn't your daughter by your side?"

Xie Baitang's eyes were reddish, and he lowered his head slightly, and said, "She disappeared when she was very young...She, like you, also likes to grow flowers, and said that when she grows up, she will help me in the medicine garden. Filled with herbs."

Chang Huan couldn't help asking again, "Then, does Madam miss her?"

Xie Baitang had a pitiful expression on his face, and said, "She is my flesh and blood born in October of my pregnancy, why would I not want to...I want to think about what she looks like when she grows up now, she can eat enough, wear warm clothes, and I have not been wronged, is there someone to take care of me when I am sick..."

Hearing this, Chang Huan suddenly felt sad.I don't know if I am not in Jiangling, whether my mother thinks about her like this, misses her, or forgets her.

A crisp young female voice sounded from the stone bridge, "Auntie—why are you sitting here alone?"

Another middle-aged woman's voice followed, saying, "Sister and brother, I'm so excited."

Seeing someone coming, Chang Huan quickly cleared up his emotions, got up and saluted at the side, "Second Madam, Hello Miss-" said in his heart, I am obviously a living person, this Xie Tianshu is really blind, he doesn't treat the maid as a human being read.

Xie Baitang also wiped his eye sockets lightly, stood up and looked back with a smile, and said, "Second sister-in-law is free to visit the garden today... I haven't seen you for a few days, but the longer she grows, the more beautiful she is. Have you visited your grandmother yet?" "

I saw Xie Tianshu with slender eyebrows and swaying pearl hairpins, wearing a light pink gauze skirt, holding a middle-aged woman with a similar face and a graceful dress by his arm, walking from the stone bridge in the south together, followed by two A servant girl in yellow clothes.

When Xie Tianshu saw Xie Baitang, he walked over and took her arm, and said coquettishly, "Auntie, I went to see my grandmother early in the morning."

Cui Yanqiu smiled and said, "I was afraid that she would disturb the old lady's peace, so I had no choice but to drag her out for a walk in the garden. Where is Rong'er? Why didn't you accompany me?"

Xie Baitang said, "I asked her to send flowers to the old lady, and this little girl cut the bouquet..." Then she turned to Xie Tianshu and said, "This little girl not only understands flowers, but is also very talented. You young people are probably able to talk together, and you can communicate more when you have time."

Xie Tianshu looked disgusted, and said coquettishly, "Auntie, she's just a servant—"

Chang Huan said hastily, "Ma'am is ridiculously praised, servants are vulgar, they are not as talented as young ladies, and they dare not go above and beyond."

Cui Yanqiu snorted and said, "It's good to know your identity."

Chang Huan saluted respectfully, "Second Madam taught me the lesson."

Hearing this, Cui Yanqiu suddenly became angry and pointed angrily, "You call me the second madam and her madam, but why? Could it be that even you, a little maid, look down on me?"

Seeing that the other party was angry, Chang Huan hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "This servant is stupid and acted carelessly, please forgive me by the second and third wives."

Seeing this, Xie Baitang gently persuaded, "Second sister-in-law, why bother to have the same knowledge as a fledgling little girl. Why don't I accompany you to enjoy the flowers over there?"

Only then did Cui Yanqiu calm down a little, and accompanied by Xie Baitang, she turned around and was about to leave.

Xie Tianshu looked at Chang Huan, and slightly narrowed his slender and slightly mean eyebrows, but he didn't hide his disgust at all.Before leaving, he asked coldly, "What's your name?"

Chang Huan said, "My servant's surname is Lin, and her name is Lin Xiaonuan."

After listening to Xie Tianshu, he took another hard look at Chang Huan. If the expression on the first meeting was a little disgusted, then the expression on the expression now is naked hatred.

Xie Baitang had just walked a few steps, when he heard this name, he turned his head for a moment, with a very surprised expression on his face, as if he had never expected this name.But before she could think about it, Xie Tianshu tugged at her arm and said, "Auntie, let's go shopping in the garden." Then he pointed to the southeast pavilion and said, "The scenery over there is also good, let's go there How about taking a look?"

Xie Baitang casually agreed, and was dragged by Xie Tianshu to walk north across the stone bridge, and then walked east along the lake.

Before leaving, Xie Baitang looked back at Chang Huan again, his eyes seemed to be filled with doubts and a trace of reluctance.At this moment, she seemed to have a thousand words to say, and a pile of questions to answer.

However, she was still pulled away by Xie Tianshu.

Without knowing it, Lin Changhuan went in, got up and patted the dust on her knees, too lazy to think too much, so she continued to tend to her flowers and plants.

After lunch, Chang Huan came to the conservatory together in the same year and talked about meeting the third lady today.

Nian Nian happily asked, "What reward does the third lady have?"

Chang Huan poked her and joked, "You little money fanatic, why do you only know money and money all day long? You really fell into the eyes of money."

Niannian asked with a smile, "Third Madam, isn't she beautiful? Although I have seen her from afar, I have never spoken to her before. Do you know that the Third Madam is a famous beauty?"

Chang Huan thought about it, "It's really beautiful...not only the person is beautiful, but the heart is also beautiful." But the second lady couldn't agree.I remembered that I said that the second wife was mean every year, and it was true.

In the afternoon, Xiaozhu didn't need to take care of much, so Chang Huan helped Niannian to take care of the greenhouse.

In the middle of the afternoon, a maid dressed in yellow came in from the greenhouse.The yellow uniform can only be worn by maids in the inner courtyard, and Chang Huan recognized at a glance that this person was with Xie Tianshu earlier.

The maid said arrogantly, "My lady ordered me to send a pot of Phalaenopsis to the east courtyard."

Although Chang Huan didn't understand why, but he could see that Xie Tianshu didn't like him, so he said in the same year, "Go and give it away."

Niannian agreed, "No problem, leave it to me."

The servant girl said, "Miss has ordered, and I want Lin Xiaonuan to send it to you."

Chang Huan had no choice but to choose a pot of the best-growing purple Phalaenopsis, and followed it with the pot.He thought to himself, patience is the first priority in everything, and Xie Tianshu can't let him find trouble because of the flowers.

This is Chang Huan's first time entering the inner courtyard.It is said to be the inner courtyard, but it is a large house in the north of the courtyard. Because the masters of the Xie family live in it, it is also called the inner courtyard.

The inner courtyard is divided into the main courtyard and the east and west courtyards.Mrs. Xie lived in the main courtyard, Xie Wenfeng's family lived in the second bedroom in the east courtyard, and Xie Baitang and Xie Tiandong lived in the third bedroom in the west courtyard.

The east courtyard is divided into several courtyards, large and small, and the courtyards are far apart. In the middle are the kitchen yard, laundry yard, servant yard, etc. which are in charge of each room.Chang Huan followed the servant girl through the long corridor, turning around and turning into Xie Tianshu's yard.

Xie Tianshu's personality is not very good, but the layout of the courtyard is quite unique.

The left and right sides of the entrance are surrounded by flowers. A moon arch is covered with vines and green plants. Entering the arch is the main courtyard. A piece of green bamboo is planted at the bottom of the south wall. The courtyard is covered with a whole piece of marble. An unknown tree called Changhuan is now blooming with large clusters of red flowers, exuding bursts of fragrance.

Chang Huan followed the maid and carried the heavy Phalaenopsis into the living room, and was about to leave, but the maid said, "Wait here for a while." Then she went out.

Seeing that the living room was empty, Chang Huan felt a little uncomfortable, so he left the living room and waited in the courtyard.

Not long after, the maid returned, holding a small penny in her hand, and handed it to Chang Huan.

Chang Huan took it and said, "Sister, please talk to the young lady. The servant thanked the young lady for the reward." After speaking, he bowed and went out.

Seeing Chang Huan's figure from afar, he looked forward to it outside the greenhouse every year.

Chang Huan took out the hanging money from his cuff and threw it to Nian Nian.Just because she readily agreed to send flowers for her just now, there is no other reason.

Nian Nian grinned from ear to ear, and said, "Xiao Nuan, I said that it is a good thing to meet the masters. Look at this reward, don't you have it..." Then he hugged the hanging money and said with emotion, "Ah, Why didn't you let me go?!"

Seeing Nian Nian's appearance, Chang Huan said with a smile, "I'm giving you a reward. It's me... as a gift for getting to know you as a friend. Are you happy?"

After Niannian was busy, he jumped a few times excitedly, and said, "Xiao Nuan, you are so kind to me. From now on, you will be my best sister for Niannian. When I get the reward in the future, I will share it with you." you!"

Seeing Chang Huan smiled helplessly, Nian Nian became serious and said, "I'm serious, although I like money very much, but I recognize you as my Nian Nian's sister. Same. I will do what I say."

Chang Huan nodded one after another, "I believe in you, every year."

Half an hour before evening, the servant girl from Xie Tianshu who came back in the afternoon returned with two servants behind her. When she saw Chang Huan pointing at her, she said, "It's her who stole Miss's bracelet."

The young servant couldn't help but twisted his arms and led Chang Huan out of the greenhouse, and walked towards Xie Tianshu's courtyard in the east courtyard.

Chang Huan explained, "What bracelet? I'm not a thief, and I didn't steal anything." But the people around these words didn't seem to have heard.

Nian Nian stood aside in fright and froze on the spot.She didn't understand, she just got the reward in the afternoon, why she was arrested again now.But she is just a low-status little maid in the outer courtyard, even if she has more than enough heart, she doesn't have enough power.I can only be anxious, but I can't do anything. The only way for a woman to vent when she encounters difficulties is to cry.I was afraid that people would see me, so I didn't dare to cry blatantly.

Chang Huan was brought to this chic courtyard again.It's just that this time is different from before, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he met Xie Tianshu who had only met once.

Xie Tianshu still had the same attire, and still had the same slender eyebrows, the only thing that changed was that he was no longer as pretentious as he was when he saw Xie Baitang in the morning.That look, with contempt, and a hint of gloating.

Xie Tianshu slowly held the teacup in one hand, and slowly stroked the tea soup with the tea lid in the other hand, raised his eyes fiercely, and said, "Say, where is my bracelet?"

Chang Huan argued sternly, "My servant has never seen Miss's bracelet before."

Xie Tianshu turned his head and snorted, and said, "Aren't you telling the truth? You were the only one who came into this living room this afternoon." He winked at the boy while speaking.

A young servant kicked Chang Huan's knees behind him, and Chang Huan knelt down on the ground without warning.At this moment, I feel that this marble brick is not a good thing. If it is loess and sandy land, it would be better.

Chang Huan really wanted to resist at this moment, looking at the young man who was pulling her, she could easily defeat him.The kung fu taught by third uncle, younger uncle and Yang Yan is more than enough to deal with these people, even Xie Tianshu.

But thinking of the purpose of this trip, thinking of Ah Cuo, thinking of Bairihong, Chang Huan lost the courage to resist.

That's right, before entering Xiaoyao Island, I had imagined that everything would not be that easy.Now that she has not reached the stage where the fish is dead and the net is broken, she can't take risks, and she doesn't dare to take risks, turning all these efforts into ashes.

Chang Huan stopped thinking about it, looked up at Xie Tianshu, and said straight, "It's not me."

At this moment, she said "I", not "servant".As if he wanted to prove something, as if he had already understood that there was nothing he could do at this moment.

Xie Tianshu said to an old lady who was about four or fifty years old beside her, "Nurse Li, how to interrogate, let's interrogate according to the rules."

Nanny Li had scruples in her heart, and said with a distressed face, "Now the old lady is sick, and this place is not a discipline academy. If the matter is made a big deal at this time, if the old lady and the third lady know about it, blame it, and the servant is afraid of the young lady. Difficult."

Xie Tianshu said angrily, "My lady teaches a maid who steals, why should I be embarrassed?"

When Nanny Li heard this, she walked up to Chang Huan as if she had received an imperial edict, and slapped her with all her might.

Chang Huan's ears buzzed, if it wasn't for the two young servants pulling his hands, he might have been knocked down to the ground.

Chang Huan blinked vigorously a few times, but only heard Nanny Li's words buzzing like mosquitoes.

Chang Huan raised his eyes dimly and said again, "It's not me."
