597. Chapter 597 Aunt Gao's conspiracy to collect money 【05】
However, when Qu Shui came in and saw Chu Ting pestering the eldest lady, he couldn't help but be a little worried. Chu Ting and Xiao Wen were both rare people in this world. Although they were not as good as his own prince, they were not too far behind.
Qu Shui couldn't help but worry about his own prince.
Therefore, he waited for Shen Mingzhu to come back to see if he could get some information for his prince.
Shen Mingzhu thanked him first, and then asked the prince and the old princess how they were and what they were doing.
Qu Shui smiled and said: "We, the old princess, are busy. We originally wanted to go hiking at Hongye Mountain Villa, but the Queen and the eldest princess made an appointment with our old princess, saying they were going to the Osmanthus Forest to have wine. But I asked about it.
Please marry our prince."
As he spoke, he secretly looked at Shen Mingzhu with his eyes. Looking at the expression on her face, Shen Mingzhu had no expression. She just lowered her eyes. Her long eyelashes were dark and blocked her autumn-like eyes, making him
I couldn't see anything, so I couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Immediately, Shen Mingzhu said calmly: "Congratulations then. The prince is of noble birth, so he naturally has to choose carefully." Without saying anything else, she asked Biyun to take back the gift she had prepared for Qu Shui.
Then he asked Biyun to deliver it.
Qu Shui couldn't help but feel a little anxious, "Miss, don't you have anything to say to our prince?"
Shen Mingzhu smiled and said: "What did you say? Didn't I just meet your prince not long ago?"
Qu Shui pouted and had no choice but to follow Biyun.
There is nothing special about the night of the Double Ninth Festival. The moon on the ninth day of the lunar month is still a semicircle. It hangs in the southwest sky at night. Its light color is as clear as a lemon. There is a strong aroma of wine floating in the air. Come to think of it,
It's the leftover wine thrown away by those who came to have fun.
Shen Mingzhu sat in the yard for a long time. She felt a little sleepy and ordered to go to sleep. At this time, there was a noise outside.
Soon someone came knocking on the door. The people outside were crying and begging and banging on the door. The girl came and went to Biyun. Biyun didn't dare to hide it and went to tell Shen Mingzhu.
Shen Mingzhu said in surprise: "Aunt Gao? What is she doing here?"
Biyun said: "She said she was beaten by the madam and wanted to sell her. She came to ask the eldest lady for protection."
Shen Mingzhu snorted, "Ignore her and let her do whatever she has to do."
Biyun whispered: "Miss, Aunt Gao said that she knows what the eldest wants to know. In addition to Aunt Zhao, there were others involved in the incident that killed Madam."
Shen Mingzhu's heart moved and she thought for a moment, "Okay, let her come to the side room."
Soon Aunt Gao came in with her hair disheveled and makeup on her face. As soon as she saw her, she knelt down and said, "Miss, please beg me in front of me. Don't betray me. I will live quietly in the future."
Stay and do nothing."
Shen Mingzhu said calmly: "Aunt Gao, what did you do?"
Aunt Gao lowered her head, her mind was spinning rapidly, and she sobbed, "It's just the madam who wants to help the master again. I'm a little... jealous. The madam got angry and scolded me. She said that I was supported by her.
She got up, but she didn’t even have a child, and she couldn’t win over the master and let him find another woman. She might as well make other plans and find a younger, more beautiful, fresher and elegant woman, who is naturally a hundred times more attractive than Aunt He.
