When they arrived at Quanyuan, Yang Xinye entered the house and saw that the house was full of people. He smiled and said hello to all the old ladies and madams.
When Yang Haoxin's wife, Mrs. Xing, saw Yang Xinye coming in, she nodded towards her and motioned for her to come over.
Yang Xinye glanced at Jiang Xingyu beside Mrs. Xing and the woman in aqua blue clothes with her back to him.
She probably knew in her heart what her sister-in-law had asked her to do.
It is better to say that Yang Xinye dislikes Jiang Xingyu than she hates Jiang Xingyu.
She hated the way Jiang Xingyu behaved coquettishly and cutely towards Fourth Brother and his gang. They also hated the way that Fourth Brother and his gang behaved. They all revolved around Jiang Xingyu and had no backbone at all.
Seeing Yang Xinye standing there in a daze, Mrs. Xing glanced at her again and shouted: "Xinye!"
Yang Xinye smiled at Mrs. Xing, "Okay, sister-in-law, I'll come."
When Yang Xinye approached, Mrs. Xing asked: "This is the eldest lady from Jiang Shangshu's house, and this is Miss Ning from Ning Yuanwailang's house. Do you all know each other?"
Only then did Yang Xinye see that it was Ning Wei who had her back turned to her. She couldn't help but feel a little thump in her heart. She looked at Ning Wei and then at Jiang Xingyu.
She thought secretly, didn't Sister He say that Ning Wei couldn't go out from the front door or the second door?
When did Ning Wei get involved with Jiang Xingyu?
Yang Xinye was someone who couldn't hide things in her heart. With this in mind, she asked, "Why are you two together?"
Jiang Xingyu knew that Yang Xinye didn't like him, and Yang Xinye was always arrogant when talking to her.
For the sake of Fourth Brother Yang, she didn't bother to pay attention to her and just let her go.
Not today, she is taking Ah Wei with her.
She could ignore Yang Xinye's comments, but if she wanted to make a fuss about Ah Wei, she wouldn't let her go.
Jiang Xingyu looked at Yang Xinye with a half-smile, and said, "Miss Yang San's question is so strange, why can't A Wei and I be together?"
Mrs. Xing looked at Jiang Xingyu and Ning Wei, and then at Yang Xinye. She didn't speak in a hurry, but just watched quietly.
This morning, my brother-in-law came to look for her and said that the eldest lady of Ning Mansion would come to the banquet and asked her to take care of her.
If she hadn't known that her brother-in-law and Miss Mao Er were in love, she would have thought wildly.
Seeing Xin Ye's appearance, do you not like Miss Ning very much?
Yang Xinye knew she had made a mistake and said hurriedly: "That's not what I meant, I'm just a little curious. Miss Ning rarely goes out for banquets. When did she and Miss Jiang become so close?"
Ning Wei smiled slightly and said, "Xingyu and I hit it off right away."
Jiang Xingyu smiled and nodded: "Ah Wei is right, she and I hit it off right away. What else is Miss Yang San curious about? You might as well talk about it, Ah Wei and I can help solve Miss Yang San's doubts."
Jiang Xingyu and Ning Wei answered in unison, which made Yang Xinye feel flustered. She was afraid that if she continued, she would be embarrassed.
He quickly changed the subject: "I have nothing to be curious about. There are already many young ladies in the flower hall, all playing there. Let's go there."
Jiang Xingyu wanted to say something else, but Ning Wei pulled her hand, shook her head at her, leaned close to her and whispered: "Give Mrs. Xing some face."
Jiang Xing understood that it depends on the owner to beat the dog, so he smiled and said, "Thank you, Miss Yang San."
After saying that, he turned around and said goodbye to Mrs. Xing together with Ning Wei.
Yang Xinye led the two of them out of Quanyuan and walked to the flower hall.
At the same time, Mrs. Liu was waiting for Mrs. Qian at the east side door of Xu Mansion in Baoping Lane.
Aunt Fang said: "Madam, the old lady is here."
Mrs. Liu raised her head and saw Yue Niangxu helping Mrs. Qian to come out. She did not see Ning Wei, so she asked: "Aunt, why don't you see Sister Wei? Isn't Sister Wei going?"
Mrs. Qian said with a smile: "Girl Yu from the Jiang Mansion made an appointment with Sister Wei. Sister Wei and Brother Yu have already gone there first. Children are children and they like to join in the fun."
Mrs. Liu was not surprised to know that Ning Wei and Jiang Xingyu were on good terms.
He smiled and nodded, "We have been here since we were children. When someone's family has a banquet, it's the most fun to get together and play. Auntie, please slow down."
With that said, Mrs. Liu took a step forward and helped Mrs. Qian get into the car.
After Mrs. Qian was seated, Mrs. Liu got into the car at the front.
Hu Rui waited for Mrs. Liu to get in the car, and then got in the car with Sang Ye.
The car exited the side door and drove forward for a while. Sang Ye clenched his hands nervously.
Seeing her pale face, Hu Rui joked: "Didn't you say you weren't afraid yesterday?"
Sang Ye lowered his eyes and muttered: "Sir, I believe this too. I am afraid that the young lady will worry and talk nonsense in front of the young lady."
After hearing this, Hu Rui raised his hand and rubbed Sang Ye's head, "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you."
"Thank you sir." After a moment, Sang Ye said again: "Sir, if I really die, please tell me not to be sad, and ask Zaohua to take good care of me and do my share."
Hu Rui patted Sang Ye's shoulder and said in a deep voice: "You girl, don't believe me? I told you that I can protect you and I will protect you well. What do you mean by life or death!"
Seeing that Hu Rui was angry, Sang Ye hurriedly smiled and explained: "Sir, don't be angry, okay? They say they are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. I just want to make an explanation in advance, just in case."
Hu Rui was really angry, "I said, as long as I'm here, there's no chance. You have to believe me, if something happens to you soon, as I said before, you hide in the secret compartment of the carriage and don't come out. Do you understand?"
Just as Sang Ye wanted to say yes, the car suddenly accelerated and Sang Ye's body rushed forward.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Hu Rui fished the mulberry leaves back, opened the cover of the hidden compartment, and stuffed the mulberry leaves inside.
Hu Rui guessed that Lingnan Shuangyang had taken action, and asked calmly: "Xu Yan, what's going on? Where are you?"
Xu Yan reined in his horse and replied, "I don't know, the horse suddenly got frightened. We are almost at Suijin Street."
The prince had made a good calculation, and the gangsters were indeed taking action here.
"Be careful!" Hu Rui confessed, then listened warily to the movements outside the car.
"Sir, be careful, the horse is out of control!" Xu Yan stopped his horse and said anxiously to Hu Rui.
Hu Rui took off the soft sword from his waist and reminded: "Stop the horse and don't let the carriage hit the old lady's car."
"I understand, sir, please sit down." After saying this, Xu Yan held the shaft of the carriage with his hands, jumped onto the horse's back, and reined in the frightened horse with all his strength.
When he was about to hit Mrs. Qian's carriage, Xu Yan controlled the frightened horse.
"Xu Yan, be careful!" Hu Rui got out of the carriage and saw three flying knives flying towards Xu Yan. He hurriedly threw out the flying knives in his hand and shot down two of the flying knives.
When Xu Yan heard Hu Rui's call, he instinctively leaned down and pressed his body close to the horse's back. The flying knife grazed the upper part of the back.
Xu Yan dodged a knife and immediately turned over and dismounted. As soon as he landed, a gust of wind sounded behind him. He quickly moved two steps to the left and cut off the shaft of the chariot with a big knife. Xu Yan dodged another knife.
Xu Yan stood firm, looked at the masked man, and said in a deep voice: "Who is coming...?"
Before he could say who, the masked man swung his sword again, and Xu Yan hurriedly took the blow.
After several rounds, Xu Yan was at a disadvantage, and his left arm and right leg were stabbed one after another.
Mrs. Qian heard the fighting behind her and asked, "What happened?"
"Slave, take a look."
As Donghui spoke, she opened the curtains and stuck her head out of the window.
When Hu Rui saw Donghui sticking her head out, he took the masked man's move and said sternly at her: "Put your head back and tell Xu Lei not to stop and keep going forward."
When Donghui saw the fighting scene, she retracted her head in panic, "Old madam, it's not good, there are many masked people fighting with Mr. and the others."
Yueniang had already heard Hu Rui's words and told Xu Lei: "Listen to Mr. Hu and don't stop the car."
Xu Lei responded: "Yes, Madam, sit down."
Xu Lei waved his riding whip one after another, making the carriage move much faster.
At the same time, Xu Chaoyang saw that Ning Wei was not in the car, so he said to Ran Wuyang: "There is no one in this car, let's catch up with a car."
After listening to Xu Chaoyang's words, Ran Wuyang turned around and chased Mrs. Qian's car. Qiao Wuqiaoliu hurriedly stepped forward to entangle her.
Ran Wuyang waved the big knife in his hand, the sword was deadly, forcing Qiao Wuqiaoliu back, then got on his horse and chased Mrs. Qian's car.
When Hu Rui saw it, he threw the flying knife in his hand. The horse was hit by the knife in the leg and knelt down. Ran Wuyang flew to the roof of the car where Mrs. Qian was, then somersaulted to the front of the car, and slashed at Xu Lei with the knife.
Xu Lei moved his body a step to the side to avoid Ran Wuyang's sword. At the same time, he stopped his horse and raised his whip to fight with Ran Wuyang.
After a few rounds, Xu Lei's whip fell out of his hand and he was injured in many places.
In the carriage, Donghui screamed in fright, and Yue Niang protected Mrs. Qian behind her, "Old madam, we can't sit on the couch, we have to sit on the ground."
Mrs. Qian looked at the steel knife that had been inserted into the carriage and slid down from the couch to sit on the ground.
Ran Wuyang pulled off the car curtain, but when he didn't see Ning Wei, he widened his eyes and asked sternly: "Damn old woman, where did you hide Xiao Nizi?"
"Take your life!" Hu Rui caught up and threw three throwing knives at Ran Wuyang. Ran Wuyang avoided two of them and stabbed the third one firmly into his left leg.
Qiao Fei and Qiao Shi came over just in time, and they both drew their swords and stabbed Ran Wuyang at the same time.
When Ran Wuyang saw Hu Rui and others chasing after him, he knew that he was more in danger than good.
As he rolled out of the car, he threw a throwing knife at Mrs. Qian.
"Old lady!" Yue Niang exclaimed.
When Ran Wuyang fell to the ground, Hu Rui and Qiao Fei pointed their swords at Ran Wuyang's chest. Ran Wuyang looked at Hu Rui and said with a smile: "You want to capture me alive, you're just dreaming!"
After saying that, Ran Wuyang straightened up and the sword entered his chest, and he died under Hu Rui's sword.
Xu Chaoyang was fighting with Xu Yan Qiao Liu. He turned around and saw Ran Wuyang dying under Hu Rui's sword. He was heartbroken and was stabbed in the left arm by Qiao Liu's sword.
The pain in his hands brought Xu Chaoyang's mind back to normal, and he swung the sword in his right hand to stab Qiao Liu and Xu Yan, forcing Qiao Liu and Xu Yan back. Xu Chaoyang no longer wanted to fight, and tried to escape.
Qiao Shi turned around and saw Xu Chaoyang's intention, raised his hand and threw the sword in his hand towards Xu Chaoyang. At the same time, Hu Rui also took action with the flying knife in his hand.
Xu Chaoyang avoided Qiao Wu's sword, but failed to avoid the flying knife in Hu Rui's hand.
Three flying knives pierced Xu Chaoyang's back, and Xu Chaoyang fell down.
The people who were with Xu Chaoyang and Ran Wuyang were so frightened that they turned around and ran away.
Hu Rui said: "Catch the ones alive and report them to the officials."
Qiao Wu Qiao Liu took the order and led people to intercept the people who were fleeing in all directions.
Hu Rui turned around and got on the carriage to see Mrs. Qian.
When Yue Niang saw Hu Rui coming up, she hurriedly said: "Sir, the old lady is injured, what should I do?"
When Hu Rui saw the flying knife inserted into Mrs. Qian's left chest, his heart sank and he ordered: "Doctor, please go back to the house."
Mrs. Qian was worried that she would die in Xu Mansion, so she stopped her and said, "If you don't go back to Xu Mansion, go back to Qili Street."
Yue Niang understood what Mrs. Qian meant and told Xu Lei: "Listen to the old lady and go back to Ning Mansion on Qili Street."
Xu Lei bowed and said, "Yes, I understand."
Yueniang raised her head and looked at Hu Rui, "Sir, please go to the Yang Mansion and take the eldest lady and the second master back to Qili Street."
Hu Rui nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll go right now."
Hu Rui got off the car, turned around and whispered to Qiao Fei and Qiao Shi: "You two also go to the Yang Mansion and report the matter to the Crown Prince."
Qiao Fei nodded in agreement, "Yes, I understand. Mrs. Liu is waiting in front, and I will not accompany you."
"Okay!" Hu Rui turned around and went to Yang Mansion, and met Mrs. Liu waiting on the roadside on Suijin Street.
Mrs. Liu's car turned onto Suijin Street and drove for a while, but Mrs. Qian's car didn't follow her.
Mrs. Liu asked someone to stop the car and waited for Mrs. Qian's car but she couldn't see it. She was about to send someone to see what was going on when she saw Hu Rui coming.
When Mrs. Liu saw Hu Rui, she stepped forward anxiously and asked, "Sir, what happened? Why didn't my aunt's car follow?"
Hu Rui explained the matter in a few words. After hearing this, Mrs. Liu said to Hu Rui: "Sir, take my car to the Yang Mansion, and I will go see my aunt."
Hu Rui thanked her, jumped into Mrs. Liu's car, and went straight to Yang's house.
Yang Mansion, Ning Wei and Jiang Xingyu followed Yang Xinye to the flower hall, where many ladies from aristocratic families had gathered.
Second Miss Mao Danting, Yang Haoxin's daughter Yang Qinghan, and Yang Haoliang's daughter Yang Qingzhao were sitting together chatting.
Mao Danting looked up and saw Jiang Xingyu, stood up and came over: "Zhangzhu, this way."
When Jiang Xingyu saw Mao Danting, he ignored Yang Xinye and pulled Ning Wei over. "Ah Wei, let's go, I will take you to meet someone."
Ning Wei let Jiang Xingyu pull her to Mao Danting.
Seeing Jiang Xingyu holding Ning Wei affectionately, Mao Danting looked at Ning Wei with a smile and asked: "Zhangzhu, who is this?"
"She is Ah Wei. As I mentioned to you last time, she is the eldest daughter of my Lao Geng. Ning Yuan Wai Lang's house."
Jiang Xingyu replied cheerfully, then turned to Ning Wei and said, "Ah Wei, this is Mao Danting, sister Ting, the second young lady of Mao Shangshu's house."
In memory, the last time Ning Wei saw Mao Danting was at the Shili Changting Pavilion outside the north of the city.
At that time, the entire family of Mao Shangshu was executed, and the entire Yang family was exiled thousands of miles away.
She went to Shili Changting to see her off, and saw that she was haggard and weak, and her eyes were lifeless.
The Miss Mao Er in front of me is gentle, honest, dignified and leisurely.
I hope that in this life, Miss Mao Er will have a good ending and will no longer suffer the pain of losing her loved ones and the pain of being displaced.
Mao Danting saw compassion in Ning Wei's eyes, and was very surprised. She smiled and said, "Hello, Miss Ning."
Ning Wei came back to her senses and said to Mao Danting: "Hello, Miss Mao Er, I'm Ning Wei."
Seeing that the two of them were very polite, Jiang Xingyu pulled them to sit down and said, "Don't be restrained. Sit down and talk. Ah Wei's temperament is very similar to Sister Ting's. She is extremely easy-going. You two will definitely get along."
