Du Ruo couldn't help but open her mouth, ”Since the Blue Luan didn't intend to tell you, why did it tell you the rest of what it said after saying it?”
”She had already said it and I heard it. Plus, I promised her repeatedly that she wouldn't say anything about it and she believed it. She then told me the whole story.”
As he spoke, he carefully looked at Chu Yuehua and said, ”Although I promised her that I wouldn't tell anyone else, this lady shouldn't be considered an outsider. At the very least, these words came from me, so can you not leak them out?”
”Enough, enough. Don't be so talkative. Tell me quickly, what exactly happened?”
”I heard from the Blue Luan that the Second Master was not his wife's biological daughter. His wife had gotten sick after giving birth to him, and he was unable to conceive a second child for five or six years. Then the Master gave birth to the Second Master from Auntie Sun in the house.”
However, his wife had always been good to Second Master, and had always urged him to read. She wanted him to take the exam, but he had refused to do so himself. Instead, he often came to the old lady's place and became familiar with Qingying.
In the end, Second Master gradually grew older, but he was unwilling to tell him about the other person. Not only did he keep delaying himself, he didn't even take the examination.
One day, the Blue Luan saw the Second Master and Qingying crying in the forest. Two days later, for some reason, his wife found Qingying and said something to her.
Not long after that, the grandpa got married. Qingying seemed to have lost her spirit during that period and went back home for a period of time. After she came back, she became like this.
However, after returning from Qingying's house, the matters in his wife's room gradually fell into Qingying's hands. The two of them had originally been the same, but now they were split into two groups.
Furthermore, from time to time, when Qingying looked at the Blue Luan, something didn't seem right. Even the Blue Luan didn't dare to speak of such things, and it was just that the people who stayed in the courtyard for a long time more or less knew about it.
When Chu Yuehua and Du Ruoruo heard this, they looked at each other in dismay. They didn't expect there to be such an inside story. This Ling is too smart, and too stupid!
”Alright! Since the Blue Luan told you not to spout nonsense, you should just stay here! Except, you need to remember how much you have been listening to. Keep it in your stomach, and other than me, do not speak nonsense outside. Also, according to what I have said to you, if any rumors spread outside, then I will not allow anything to happen to you. ”
This was originally a round of fierce words, but this girl seemed to be born with few tendons. After hearing her words, she instead nodded with a smile, ”I'm not stupid, how can I tell the logic behind this girl's words.”
At night, the entire courtyard knew that Lingruo had been punished by Chu Yuehua and her courtyard had been swept clean for three days.
However, after sweeping through the courtyard, everyone realized that the new maid in front of this second cousin of theirs was truly a heartless person. She still had the melon seeds in her pocket. If she wanted to talk about something, she would do so.
”Hey!” Aren't you afraid that Lady Yue will punish you? ”
”Actually, this lady was only persuaded by the people around her. What's wrong with me? Isn't it just a chat?” I've done everything I was given, and I haven't done anything bad!
”No worries, at most we'll just sweep for another three days!” As he said that, he poured half of the melon seeds in his hand over, ”This melon seeds are being stir-fried beautifully today. I wonder if it's someone else who is stir-frying the seeds.”
