In the inner room, Yu Linglong had already woken up, and the Hemerocallis, who had not dared to close her eyes all the time, bit her lips, for fear that she would cry out in terror.

Outside the yard, suddenly heard Ma Changgeng's shrill cry: "who is it?"

Then came a miscellaneous footstep sound, Yu Linglong suddenly turned out of bed and walked out. XuanCao quickly picked up her outer garment and followed her closely.

Is it true that someone is playing tricks?

Jade Linglong just walked to the main hall, heard a disorderly voice in the yard: "caught, caught!"

Ma Changgeng's family ran into the room panting: "Miss, you are really clever. The maids and maids have been guarding for most of the night. As expected, they have caught a fresh girl!"

Some of the cooks pulled their arms, some of them grabbed their shoulders, and even pulled a young woman dressed as a servant girl into the room.

She was the first to report to the public

"It was the maidservant who caught it first!"

"If it hadn't been for the slap on the face of her servant, she would have run away --"

as soon as Yu Linglong raised her hand, the people immediately stopped their voices and waited eagerly for the reward.

"Don't worry, everyone has a reward." Finish saying that, jade Linglong's line of sight then fell on the servant girl who has been lowering her head since being pulled in.

"Why, dare not do it?" Under the candlelight, Yu Linglong's eyes are clear and flowing, just like a pool of clear water in early spring. The waves are bright and the air is cold. "Say it, who are you?"

Hearing Yu Linglong's icy voice, the servant girl suddenly fell to her knees on the ground, and even her voice trembled: "four young lady, forgive me. I was sent by the master to have a look. I don't know anything about it!"

Jade Linglong said in a cold voice, "look up."

The servant girl on her knees raised her face in a trembling voice. Without waiting for people to speak, she heard a cry of surprise from the Hemerocallis beside her.

"It's you!"

Jade Linglong looked at that beautiful but strange face, slightly frowned Xiu Mei: "Xuan Cao, do you know her?"

XuanCao said, "Miss, this is the maid in the yard of the third miss, whose name is water chestnut."

Yu Linglong looks at the little maid who is frightened on the ground. Is she sent by yuqianliu? That's kind of interesting.

"Oh? Are you yuqianliu's servant girl? She didn't say what she sent you for? "

Under Yu Linglong's keen eyes, the water chestnut trembled even more fiercely. Her tears whirled in her eyes and stammered, "the third and third miss just asked the maid to come to the orchid garden to have a look..."

"What are you looking at?" Yu Linglong took the hot tea from Hemerocallis fulva and asked, "come and see if I'm dead?"

The water chestnut was so scared that he knocked his head on the ground: "I dare not, I dare not!"

"No? I think you are very brave. " Yu Linglong sneered, "don't you know the yard is haunted? Don't you have a lot of courage to come here alone in the middle of the night

The movement of water chestnut kowtow momentarily stagnated. At the moment, her whole body was lying on the ground, shaking violently: "maid I don't know... "

Without waiting for her to say it again, the tea cup in jade Linglong's hand has already flew out and hit the water chestnut heavily!

"You don't know! Why don't you come to see the yard in the middle of the night? If you don't know anything, you dare to provoke me

She didn't believe that she had made so much noise in the jade mansion these two days that the servant girl had never heard of her? Dare to spy on her secretly, the little girl still pretends to be pitiful with her here!

The boiling tea splashed on the water chestnut, which made her scream out: "miss four, spare me! And the maidservant said, "I will tell you everything."

The water chestnut wiped his tears and said intermittently, "yes It's the third miss who says that Pinlan garden is haunted. I don't know how the fourth miss is living here. She just I ordered my servant to come and have a look... "

Looking at the water chestnut kneeling on the ground, Yu Linglong suddenly smiles.

Very good, it seems that the ghost of this Pinlan garden is known to all, only oneself do not know!

As early as Mu Shi asked Cui's mother to bring her to this yard, she had already noticed something was wrong. She was just a commoner girl, and she cleaned up Mu's family severely. How could Mu Shi arrange a neat and good courtyard for herself so happily? It turned out to be a haunted yard that no one dared to live in!

Water chestnut words have not finished, jade Linglong suddenly opened mouth to interrupt her: "are you really jade thousand willow sent?"

Water chestnut's face flashed a trace of panic, but in a flash, he lowered his head deeply: "the maid is the third young lady's person, naturally you should listen to the three young lady's orders."

Yu Linglong got up slowly, went to the water chestnut and looked at the servant girl who was shaking all over her body.

Her faint voice was even colder than the snow on Tianshan Mountain: "you think I'm stupid and easy to cheat, don't you?"

Hearing Yu Linglong's words, the water chestnut was shocked and immediately kowtowed like garlic: "miss four, please spare me! What I said is true! It's really just that the third young lady came to let the maid have a look. The other, the maid doesn't know anything about it! ""What a glib girl Yu Linglong snorted coldly. She turned around and sat down on the seat. She said in a sharp voice, "come on

"Yes Ma Changgeng's family and others immediately responded to Qi.

"Go and get a charcoal basin!" Jade Linglong's eyes are sharp, like a steel knife scraping bone, "what's this beautiful mouth for? Put coals of fire in her mouth so that she can never speak

"Yes The people who had already been frightened by jade Linglong's sharp means respectfully agreed and rushed to get the charcoal basin.

"Four young ladies, spare your life!" The water chestnut was so scared that his voice changed its tune, but he still cried and howled, "it's really the third lady who called the maid. The servant just listened to the master's orders -"

the charcoal basin soon moved in, and the hot charcoal was crackling in the black charcoal pot. The temperature in the room increased a little, but it couldn't stop the deep chill of the people in the room.

Yu Linglong's pretty face is covered with frost under the light of the jumping charcoal fire.

She turned a deaf ear to the water chestnut's plea for mercy. Yu Linglong picked up a piece of burning charcoal with a pair of tongs, and poked it in the face of the water chestnut!

"Ah The water chestnut retreated in fright, and her face was full of fear and terror. "Four young lady, spare your life --"

the hot coals brush past the water chestnut's ear, and it ignited her hair. There was a sound, and the air was filled with the burnt smell of hair!

Can imagine, if this once if scalded on the face of water chestnut what effect will be!
