"Alright, you've already given me the answer to this question!" Just as Fei Yan was about to speak, Second Madam suddenly opened her mouth and sighed.

Fei Yan raised her head, this was the first time she looked at Second Madam in such a manner. Her eyes were not as clean as before, but they were still turbid, and that expression of a fisherman falling into the wild, bringing with it the depression of autumn, the iciness of winter, made Fei Yan's heart feel as if it was pierced. She thought to herself, is it because the Second Madam was similar to her?

"Tell me, if you have a cliff behind you and a person in front of you forcing you to retreat, will you jump down or face this person's pressure? If you don't want to sacrifice yourself, then you can only counterattack!"

"Pa, pa pa …" Second Madam was ruthless, the buddhist beads cut off the string, it was just like her pure heart.

Buddha beads laid on the ground one after another with two or three in total, looking at and her with an ice-cold sneer.

"Fei Yan, do you have anything that you care about?" Second Madam did not care about the buddhist beads on the ground, and stared straight at Fei Yan.

Something he cared about? Fei Yan had never thought of this question before. What did she care about that? A voice suddenly tugged at her, telling her to do it. She didn't even know what it meant.

The only person she felt concerned about was the Aunt Niu beside her, and Xiao Cui. She didn't have anything else, but the walnut in her embrace gave her a sense of familiarity, but it didn't give her any signs of regaining its memories.

"At the very least, I have someone that I care about!" At this moment, Fei Yan's words were spoken with determination, and her eyes sparkled, making the Second Madam move.

"The Aunt Niu should be blessed to have met you!" Second Madam finally revealed a smile and praised Fei Yan.

"Mother!" Right at this moment, a beautiful figure that was like a butterfly jumped into Second Madam's embrace. Second Madam was originally still filled with sorrow, but in the next moment, it disappeared like smoke into thin air, gently caressing her cute little daughter.

"Is there anyone obedient today?" The Second Madam asked gently.

"Mother, actually, elegance has always been very obedient, but this time, I am the most obedient. I will hide as far as I can from second sister, this way, she will definitely not be able to cause trouble for elegance."

They all said that it was child's talk, which was why elegance was able to speak in such a carefree manner, not caring about it at all. However, they did not see the Second Madam's somewhat embarrassed expression.

"Moreover, this way we won't make things difficult for the eldest mother!" elegance continued to speak. As he looked up, he saw fear in his forehead, and there was nothing more he could say.

"Hehe, child, I've let you down!" Second Madam hid her smile and was slightly apologetic.

At this moment, Fei Yan had the misconception that the Second Madam did not want to fight with First Madam, which was why she said such words, but there were a few women who could tolerate their husbands neglecting her, so why?

"Hey, sister!?" It was only then that elegance realized Fei Yan's existence. She was overjoyed to see him, it seemed that she had left a deep impression of him last time.

"Lady Lucky!" Fei Yan did not dare to call her sister rashly, because if those words were to fall on their ears, then she would not be able to take the consequences.

"Elder sister, it's all thanks to you that you bowed so courteously that day. Mother said that people must repay favors!"

If it was said that these adults knew how to hide, then children were the truest and what they said was also the truest. Fei Yan admired the Second Madam's way of grooming people, at the very least, she was a great mother.

"Big sister, it really wasn't me that day. When I came, that thing had already fallen over there, but second sister only arrived afterwards. I didn't step on it!" There was no logical explanation, but the grievance was expressed, elegance looked at his own mother, and snuggled into her embrace.

Fei Yan could vaguely see how ruthless the Second Madam was when she heard those words, but some information had already been filtered out by Fei Yan. With the answer, although the Second Miss was not a frame-up, but the Second Miss was not doing it on purpose, then who could it be? Borrowing Second Miss s? There was someone else.

Coming out from Second Madam's place, they saw the plum blossoms scattered on the ground. The red imprint on the snow was actually as red as blood, and everything was changing.

The snow was starting to melt slowly, and was getting closer and closer to the New Year. had said that every master would always give them a generous New Year fee this time, but that was on the premise that they could prepare well for the new year.

Fei Yan could not say that she was happy, but she did not hate it either. At least, Xiao Cui was very excited about this matter, and was not too tired from it. On New Year's Day, not only were there red packets, she could also rest for a few days and reunite with her family.

While she was busy in the morning in the courtyard, Fei Yan kept feeling that the atmosphere was a little strange.

Actually, ever since Fei Yan heard some unusual things from the Second Madam, something strange started to happen. However, the content of the things were just a little wooden person appearing in some maidservant, and there was even a needle on top. Furthermore, the people who appeared were all maidservant's subordinates, so everyone was guessing that it was the Second Madam who did it.

"Fei Yan, you're here!" Looking at the Fei Yan who was still holding onto her life, Xiao Cui ran over with small steps.

Raising her head to look at Xiao Cui, Fei Yan continued to busy herself with the embroidery work, as if the one who was called out was not her.

But this time, Xiao Cui was not so calm, she immediately dodged the embroidery on her hands.

"What's the matter?" Fei Yan turned her gaze onto Xiao Cui's face and asked indifferently.

"Don't you know? Master is coming back soon, this First Madam is happy, and told you to prepare, and that the few ladies will gather later! "

"Oh!" Fei Yan felt that there was nothing to be happy about, at least it did not matter to her. However, when this old master returned, whether this courtyard would be peaceful, or the performance would only become more and more intense. She could bring up this point to the end, or perhaps there would be a soul in her bones that would constantly remind her of her mission.

"Oh?" Xiao Cui closed her eyes and almost fainted, "Are you not happy about this?"

Fei Yan didn't say anything, she was only taking back the thing in Xiao Cui's hands and entering the room, should she be happy? She didn't know.

"Hurry up, let's go take a look!"

Xiao Cui did not manage to pull Fei Yan over, but her gaze was quickly pulled back by the thoughts of the people in the courtyard who were whispering as they ran out.

"Eh? "What's the matter!" Xiao Cui jumped down the stairs and pulled a little girl who was running outside.

"You don't know? The most recent incident with villains, they say they caught the culprit! " After saying that, the man followed the crowd and ran out.

When Xiao Cui heard this, she also became angry. Recently, she was also a bit worried, afraid that a villain would appear from nowhere, but now that she found the culprit, how could she miss it?

"Fei Yan, let's go take a look!" It had to be said that Xiao Cui was getting anxious in her heart, she did not even hear a reply from the house, and could not wait any longer as she directly ran out of the courtyard.

Suddenly, the courtyard became quiet again, so quiet that even the faint sound of wind outside could enter Fei Yan's ears.

Fei Yan raised her head, and could always easily look towards the north, the only direction that she knew of.

One thought, "Hiss!" Fei Yan was lost in thought, and her hand was accidentally pricked by a needle.

Putting down the things in her hands, Fei Yan stood up. "Squeak, squeak." She could even hear the panic inside.

Fei Yan frowned, upon hearing the sound of footsteps, she could be considered to be someone from the same academy as him, but if a person had ill intentions and took advantage of this time to rush in frantically, then that person would definitely be suspicious.

Fei Yan stepped lightly to the back of the door, and through the gap in the door, he saw a figure running in.

When that person ran in, Fei Yan was shocked, it was actually her! She only saw her running into a room, and Fei Yan felt strange, that the sound was so clear that she could hear it.

What was this person looking for? Who exactly was this person's subordinate?

Very quickly, Fei Yan saw the man coming out from a room, she had paid close attention to his hand movements, but did not see anything, so Fei Yan thought that he was about to leave.

Suddenly, the man turned and entered another room. He went through almost all the rooms, but he did not enter Fei Yan's room. No, there was another room.

Fei Yan did not think that she was familiar with this person, maybe she wanted to frame him, then …

That person had shifty eyebrows and was preparing to leave after looking around. Fei Yan could not resist and with a move of her hand, a thin needle flew out from the crack of the door.

Ah!" The man gave a little cry. His face was full of fear. Without caring about anything else, he got up from the snow and rushed out.

There was only one strange thing lying there.

Fei Yan took the chance before everyone returned to quickly run over and pick up the thing. When she saw what it was, she became even more nervous.

She only knew the name of this plant, and it was also known as the Peak Grass. As its name implied, the effects could cause people to go crazy. For a long time the grass would be mad, it would lose its mind, it would do something that it wanted to do but it was not allowed to do, and this grass was usually born in the north.

North, and north again? She suddenly wanted to see the person behind the blood stain. First Madam? Second Madam? Or someone else.

Fei Yan hurriedly returned to her room to put away the grass at the top of the house. This kind of grass had an extremely strong vitality, even the colder the weather, the more dangerous the place was, the safer it would be, and since that person didn't want them to stay at, it was most likely to set up a trap for him. No matter what, Fei Yan would not let this kind of accident happen, and she wouldn't worry about becoming a crazy person, because she knew how to remove the grass at the top.

Wait, Fei Yan suddenly thought, if the person had not been in the crowd earlier, then the needle would have been pointed straight at her! Thinking about this, Fei Yan took a robe and ran out, taking the chance that the person was still in a state of panic, so he would not have reported it to Master so early, and naturally would not have been able to find her.

In the courtyard of First Madam, there were already many people gathered.

Fei Yan tried her best to find a place where she could be easily spotted by others, this was probably the first time she showed herself in such a way.

"Speak, who was the one who ordered you?" First Madam's face was filled with anger, her sharp eyes shooting towards the people kneeling down.
