After the male supporting role stopped interfering, the female protagonist suffered

He nodded slightly and said, "That's right. There is a saying that goes, 'A nest of gold or silver is worse than your own doghouse.'"

"In that case, I will send a letter to Hequan and ask them to pick up Su'er."

"But, it will take a month to get from Shangjing City to Hequan even with a fast horse." He couldn't wait to send Lin Suer away.

"It's okay! Don't tell cousin Lin about this in advance. Otherwise, how can her body bear it if she looks forward to it every day." Lin Suer's illness was caused by premature birth. She has been in poor health since childhood. She drank milk with a taste of medicine before she could even eat.

After Uncle Lin was exiled, she was sent to Shangjing City.

The meaning is very clear, he just wants him to climb up to a higher branch and rescue Uncle Lin.

Of course, Lin Suer did it in her previous life.

But, in this life...

When he is no longer a stepping stone, can Lin Suer still do it?

Wait and see.

"That's true! I have also punished your sister for what happened today. Don't blame her anymore!" The son is the pillar of the family in the future. If he doesn't like his daughter, what will happen to her in the future.

"Rong'er was definitely wrong today! Why didn't you shout when you saw Cousin Lin fall into the water?"

"And the servants around the garden today, why didn't they go there right away?"

"Mother, you have to investigate carefully. If you are so careless in serving the master, it will cause trouble if some noble person comes to the mansion in the future."

"Doesn't that mean the entire Duke Heng's Mansion will be implicated?" According to memories from her previous life, although Lin Su'er had only been here for two years, she had won over quite a few slaves to serve her.

It is a kindness not to beat to death this kind of servant who betrayed his master.

He also realized that there was something fishy. Logically, there would be maids and servants serving in the garden and the corridor.

Why did no one rescue Lin Suer when she fell into the water?

Let her soak in the water for a moment?

Having lived in the rear house for many years, He immediately thought of what someone had done.

only......

"Okay! I understand! Go back and study! Don't worry about this matter!" He felt that men should not be allowed to interfere in matters in the rear house.

So, he thought about getting his son away first.

Zhou Hui nodded, knowing what his mother was going to do.

"Mom, I'll go pick up Rong'er! Cousin Lin said that everything has nothing to do with Rong'er. I think, since it has nothing to do with her, there's no need to punish her." In fact, this matter is very simple!

Lin Suer met her sister, and Lin Suer said, "I'm sorry, cousin, I didn't mean to snatch your brother away."

My sister was naturally upset and very displeased with Lin Suer.

She was about to leave, but Lin Suer had come here intentionally to cause trouble, so how could she let her leave?

So, he stopped his sister.

As the situation went on, the person who should have fallen into the water did not, but the person who should not have fallen into the water did.

According to Lin Suer's calculations, the person who would eventually fall into the water should be her sister, not herself.

"Okay! Go and pick her up!" He didn't want to punish her own daughter, but there were only the two of them and two servants present when the incident happened.

She fainted, and I couldn't let my daughter go unpunished.

So he was made to kneel in the ancestral hall.

"Yes! Son, I'll take my leave!" After Zhou Hui bowed, he turned around and left the yard.

......

......

Watching her son leave, He said, "No matter why Hui'er said this to me, he is right! Why don't the servants in the garden work at their own positions?"

"Could it be... there is something fishy going on? Was it Qingyuan Courtyard? Or Fuhua Courtyard? Or was it someone else who did it?"

"Mother Qin, take your people to investigate. I want to find out who is causing this trouble."

"Remember, when you do this, don't disturb Qingyuan Courtyard. After all, they are guests." The reason why He had always tolerated Lin Suer was not because she was afraid of her, but because she was afraid of hurting the relationship between mother and son.

"Yes!" Mother Qin took the order and began to investigate the matter.

Ji Chun had been by his master's side the entire time, so he heard the conversation between the lady and the prince clearly.

"Madam, are you relieved now?" Jichun and Canyue, they are both maids beside the madam, how could they not know the madam's worries.

He continued to pick up the account book and sighed, "Don't worry, how can I be at ease? Raising a child for a hundred years means worrying for ninety-nine years. How can I be at ease?"

"Madam, I think the prince seems a little different from before. He is like a night-shining pearl without a glass cover, so bright and amazing." Canyue came in with tea and couldn't help but say.

Today, when she saw the prince for the first time, she felt it.

The prince seems different from before, as if...how should I put it, as if he has become clearer.

"You! You are really good at talking. Take away the night-shining pearl from the glass cover, you are really good at talking. I just hope that this incident is an accident, otherwise..." As the lady of the house, how could He not have any means.

Otherwise, the concubines in the house will not be honest.

Of course, there are also dishonest ones, such as Fuhuayuan.

......

......

In the mansion of Duke Heng, in the Fuhua Courtyard.

Aunt Gao continued to embroider, but asked, "Is the eldest lady still kneeling in the ancestral hall?"

"Yes. Ever since Qingyuan Courtyard fell into the water, my lady has punished me to kneel in the ancestral hall." Huaixia said softly, fanning herself gently.

"Qingyuanyuan is not a good person." As a concubine, Aunt Gao knows Qingyuanyuan's character thoroughly.

Isn't that how she treats the master, it's just that her level is higher than Qingyuanyuan's.

"Indeed! Mai Hou saw it all when he came back. The eldest girl was about to leave, but the people from Qingyuan Court blocked her and wouldn't let her leave." Huaixia always knew that Qingyuan Court was not easy to mess with, mainly because the prince stood behind her.

If it weren't for the existence of the prince, she would just be a girl living under someone else's roof and there would be nothing to be afraid of.

"Well! We don't care about this. It's Madam's business anyway." Aunt Gao would not do such a thankless task. Anyway, she just wanted to live a good life in Fuhuayuan and she didn't care about other things.

Huaixia nodded, but said, "Aunt, do you want to spread this matter?"

Hearing this, Aunt Gao looked up at Huaixia with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

Huaixia knelt down hurriedly and said in a panic, "Auntie, I have crossed the line."

Aunt Gao gently withdrew her gaze, turned her head to look at the embroidery in her hands, and said, "I know you have crossed the line, so I will fine you one month's salary."

"Yes! I accept the punishment!" Huaixia quickly accepted the punishment, but she regretted what she said after she said it.

Aunt Gao put down the embroidery in her hands, stood up and walked out, and heard the laughter of her son and daughter playing ball in the yard.

A kind and gentle smile appeared on her originally calm face.

Seeing their mother coming, the two children ran over and shouted happily, "Auntie, Auntie."

Aunt Gao squatted down, gently touched her son and daughter's heads, and said, "Go play!"

The two children ran out again and played with the ball happily.
