Su Hao doesn''t seem to be faking when she looks at Mrs. Hou''s sincerity. Besides, there''s no need for Mrs. hou to cheat her, which means there''s another person behind the scenes. And the man was also a member of the Marquis''s house.
Su Hao decided to stay in Hou''s house for a while, find out the backstage, and finally think about Su haoniang, Hou Xinyao.
Hou Xinyao was dressed up by Mrs. Hou. Hou Xinyao changed into a brand new dress, combed her hair in a beautiful bun, and stood there gently. When she didn''t speak, she still felt like a lady of a big family.
Mrs. Hou also found a doctor for Hou Xinyao, but the doctor only shook her head and sighed for Hou Xinyao''s symptoms, and then prescribed several doses of medicine to take care of Hou Xinyao.
But after living in Houfu for some time, Su Hao found that the backyard of Houfu was not so peaceful. There were many women in the backyard. Master Hou was a little indifferent. He just managed to run the hous'' house in front of him. He never cared about what happened in the backyard. Although he gave Mrs. Hou the respect she should have, Mrs. Hou was so soft-hearted that sometimes she couldn''t hold those concubines.
For example, aunt Yan, the only concubine in this group, has a son.
The woman was in her early thirties. She was a little short, but she was plump and had elegant features. She looked like a ripe peach, with a kind of mature breath. Relying on her son, she was quite arrogant in the house and was not very respectful to Mrs. Hou.
"Oh, ma''am, did you get a playmate back for the young master?" This is the first sentence she said after meeting Hou Xinyao. Anyone can see that Hou Xinyao''s intelligence is a little lower than that of ordinary people. However, her prickly sentence, on the face of speaking about hou Xinyao, is undoubtedly belittling the young master of Hou.
After listening to this, Mrs. Hou gave her a cold look: "aunt Yan is also a Hou''s residence that has been going forward for more than ten years. Don''t you even recognize Yao''er?"
"Yao er?" Aunt Yan''s white face suddenly flashed a trace of surprise. She stood up and went straight to Hou Xinyao: "my wife said this is Miss Xinyao?"
At that time, Hou Xinyao didn''t marry the young master of the Hou family when she was in the mansion, so everyone respected Hou Xinyao and said, "Miss Xinyao.".
Madam Hou nodded slightly: "how, aunt Yan can''t recognize it?"
Aunt Yan flashed a trace of embarrassment on her face, took Hou Xinyao''s hand, looked Hou Xinyao up and down, and then carefully asked, "what''s wrong with Miss Xinyao
Thinking of this, Mrs. Hou felt a pain in her heart and immediately sneered: "I''m afraid you have to ask the people in the house. When I have cured Xinyao, the truth will come out. "
Aunt Yan turned pale.
These are all good-looking in the eyes of Su, immediately she felt that Aunt Yan was very suspicious. After Mrs. Hou came back to the room, she began to ask Mrs. Hou, "madam, why is aunt Yan so arrogant?"
Mrs. Hou gave a bitter smile: "because that daughter has a son. You can see that there are many women in the backyard, but the master always has a hard time in raising children. Aunt Yan''s son is the master''s only son besides my son, and my son is so ill again... "Mrs. Hou sighed heavily. Master Hou was looking after his son. If it wasn''t for her being a wife, he would start from scratch with master Hou. Master Hou always respected her, so these concubines would not dare to be too presumptuous, Otherwise, she may be more difficult in Hou''s residence than now.
Su Hao wondered why so many women had no children, but aunt Yan had children. After thinking about it, she asked, "how old is aunt Yan''s child this year?"
Without thinking, Mrs. Hou said, "it''s a year older than you. Coincidentally, it was the year when your mother disappeared."
Su Hao''s eyes narrowed, and he felt that there must be something else.
……
After Hou Xinyao and Su Hao return to Hou Fu, Hou''s wife does not leave Hou Xinyao day and night. However, Hou Xinyao can''t live with Mrs. Hou all the time. Mrs. Hou will arrange a residence for Hou Xinyao, which is exactly the residence of Hou Xinyao for more than ten years.
Mrs. Hou often wipes her tears these days. She pushes the door of Hou Xinyao''s room open and says to Su Hao, "over the years, I''ve asked my servants to clean the room day by day. I just want to know if Yao''er will miss me one day and come back to have a look..."
Su Hao was moved. Although Hou''s wife bought Hou Xinyao back from others, she really treated Hou Xinyao well. If Hou Xinyao was placed in Hou''s house, Su Hao would be at ease.
"Can you put your mother in this room without care?" Mrs. Hou asked Su Hao anxiously. It was su Hao who proposed to let her and Hou Xinyao live in this room.
Sue gave a playful smile: "Ma''am, what you said, am I not human? I always take care of my mother. I''m afraid that if strangers take care of my mother, she won''t get used to it. "
When Mrs. Hou saw Hou Xinyao, who was obviously afraid of seeing others, she thought Su Hao''s words were reasonable, so she agreed.
"If you need anything, please tell your servants. This is your home." Mrs. Hou patted Su Hao''s hand and told her that Su Hao nodded cleverly.
After Mrs. Hou agreed to Su Hao''s request, she specially cleaned the room where Su Hao Niang lived.
This room is located in the inner courtyard of Hou''s house. It is said that trees are not allowed to be planted in the inner courtyard. But Su haoniang loved peach blossom very much in those years. Mrs. Hou loved her daughter so much that she begged the master to plant a peach tree in front of the window.
Su Hao took Su haoniang''s hand and came to the room under the eager guidance of Mrs. Hou. At this time is the late spring season, peach blossom has already been in full bloom, but even so, although it is not a grand scene, watching the wind blowing, falling, it is also a different flavor. There is also a mischievous petals fell on Su haoniang''s clothes, Su haoniang giggled.
Mrs. Hou looks at Su haoniang laughing happily. She turns around secretly to avoid Su Hao''s tears. When she turns back, her eyes are full of love.
The servant girl opened the door, which was made of yellow pear wood. The sun came in. Su haoniang strode in excitedly, followed by Su Hao and Mrs. Hou.
The room is clean and beautiful. The incense burner is smoking. The fragrance diffuses the whole room. The white gauze curtain covers the bed of Aquilaria wood, the exaggerated bronze mirror and the dressing table with rouge powder. This room is obviously arranged with calmness, especially with the fragrance and color of Su haoniang.
Mrs. Hou led Su haoniang and took her to walk around the room. The words could not hide her kindness
Yao''er, do you like this room? This is your room more than ten years ago. " Mrs. Hou''s eyes were filled with sour and astringent again, and she said, "but after so many years, I don''t know if Yao''er still likes this room..." when she said this, Mrs. Hou''s tone dropped.
"Yes, Niang, Yao''er." Su haoniang, with a innocent and innocent smile, replied to Mrs. Hou. Su haoniang never claimed to be Yao''er in front of Su Hao, but when she returned to Mrs. Hou, she seemed to be the former Miss Xinyao. In addition, recently, Mrs. Hou asked a famous doctor to prescribe medicine to regulate Hou Xinyao''s body. She is in a much better state and her speech is clearer than before, but she still can''t say complete words.
Mrs. Hou breathed a sigh of relief, raised a loving smile on her face and stroked Hou Xinyao''s hair: "it''s good that Yao''er likes it. After so many years, Yao''er has suffered. Let''s live in this room with ah Hao these days."
Su haoniang nodded cleverly.
Su Hao and Su haoniang live together in this room these days. There are memories of Su haoniang. She sleeps very well and doesn''t have nightmares any more.
But Su Hao is not the same. She needs to be vigilant all the time to prevent anyone from harming Su haoniang. This is the reason why she insists on living here alone with Su haoniang. Since Hou Xinyao has come back, although she has some brain problems, she can''t be cured. Therefore, if the murderer is still in her family for more than ten years, she will definitely do it again.
But after a few nights like this, it was calm and safe. Su Hao thought that the man in the dark had given up, but something happened tonight.
All of a sudden, suhao hears a light tap from the closed window. Suhao raises her ears. The tap is rhythmic. She deliberately ignores it and wants to see their next move.
The man probably saw that there was no reaction in the house, so he was bold. Su Hao clearly heard the sound of footsteps and the sound of moving the ladder. It seems that someone went to the roof.
Suhao Snickers in the dark room. She has already laid a trap on the roof. When the man comes to the roof, he seems to have fallen into the trap.
Sure enough, after a while, there was a exclamation, a slightly delicate voice of a woman.
Su Hao nervously turns his head and looks at Su haoniang who is beside him. There is no movement. It seems that he is sleeping soundly. Su Hao was relieved,
He lit up the light and crept out of bed. As soon as he wanted to open the door to find the maid, the door was pushed open.
"Good lady? What''s the matter? I''m sleeping in the next room tonight. I just heard something. Are you ok It''s Mrs. Hou''s maid, Lamei.
Su Hao thought, madam Hou really loves Su haoniang. She has been sending people to protect them. Seeing that Su was speechless, Lamei asked eagerly, "my servant has called a servant. Are you OK, Miss Hao? What about Miss Xinyao? "
Su Hao responded and said with a smile, "we''re all right. You don''t have to worry. Wait here for the servants to come."
As soon as Su Hao''s words came to an end, a few big family members, dressed in the uniform of the Marquis''s house, rushed to the house.
"Good lady? What''s the matter, please? " The leader is a thin black skin, slightly panting asked.
"You go to the roof and get the one caught in the fishing net down." Sue Hao calmly ordered.
At this time, Lamei noticed that there was a slight movement on the roof, which seemed to be the sound of struggling.
The servant received the order and went up to the roof immediately. Suhao waited patiently underground.
Several of them came down from the roof. Inside the fishing net was a servant girl who was stronger than an ordinary woman. She was wearing a pure black Nightgown, and her eyes were a little cruel. The fishing net had been taken down by the servant, but she still struggled to get rid of the confinement of the servant.
