There is actually not much difference between wearing a coat and wearing unlined clothes. No one will pay attention unless there is something on the coat that cannot be seen. If you look at it, something will happen. You can only get rid of the coat and pretend that you are only wearing unlined clothes.
Thinking of what she saw in the distance at night, Manmei gradually analyzed the clues. If she followed her analysis, she had almost guessed the main context of this matter. There was no need to go into the details so deeply, but there was still a little evidence missing. No matter what
Whatever it is, you have to prove something.
She thought a lot, but time did not pass quickly. Shan Boyuan and Jiang Shang were talking wordlessly. Most of the time, Shan Boyuan was looking for topics. Jiang Shang like this was very abnormal. Jiang Shang was usually gentle and elegant.
, he is courteous, yet generous and knowledgeable. He can always find the right topic to talk about so that his guests will not feel left out.
This is one of the reasons why Manmei has always liked being with Jiang Shang.
Now that Jiang Shang is acting like this, he obviously has something on his mind.
After walking for a while, they came to a mountain spring. The team stopped to get some food. The nunnery was completely burned down. The nuns were unwilling to go down the mountain. They couldn't find a suitable place to light a fire for cooking. Fortunately, there was a mountain spring.
It doesn't matter if the servants skip a meal or two, but the masters cannot go hungry, especially a noble master like Shan Boyuan.
Jiang Shang was originally accompanying Manmei in the carriage. After a while, he heard noisy sounds, mixed with Chu Yue'er's yelling. He got out of the car in a irritable mood and went to clean up Chu Yue'er. When he got off the car, Shan Bo
As a grown man, it was natural that he couldn't stay in the car, so he got out of the car with him in green clothes and a purple hairpin, saying it was for some fresh air.
Hongxiu and Qingpei stayed in the car to take care of Manmei, while Manmei continued to pretend to be asleep.
Qingpei seemed to be lying by the car window and watching for a long time. When she saw Manmei lying on her side and sleeping with her back facing her, she whispered to her sisters, "This Miss Chu family is really a bad-tempered one. She makes noisy wherever she goes."
Where. I saw her standing at the door and scolding the guards in Laizhou before. When I got up last night, I saw her in the woods outside, quarreling with her sister. Today she quarreled with the maid again. There is really no one she doesn't quarrel with."
Manmei's heart sank, and she subconsciously grabbed the fur underneath her body. The white fox fur was very soft, smooth, and very warm, but Manmei only felt that her body was getting colder, because her body was cold due to her cold heart.
Hong Xiu didn't believe it, "How is that possible? I heard that she was the only one who came here. When she came, she was blocked at the door and made trouble for a while."
Qingpei disagreed, "Of course she came alone. When I went to the Wu family with His Highness, I heard from the Wu family that the young master of the Wu family took Chu, a cousin of the Jiang family, as a concubine. She must be her sister.
"
"Then why is it in a nunnery?" Hongxiu didn't want to continue this topic, "Stop talking about it, how can a servant arrange other family members' affairs!"
"There are no outsiders here." Qingpei giggled sweetly, "She's still asleep."
As he said that, he leaned on Hongxiu and whispered to her, "I heard that the young master of the Wu family doesn't like Aunt Chu anymore. Aunt Chu is sick again and she was probably sent to die. This second young lady of the Chu family is really heartless. My sister is so heartless.
If this is the case, you still want to quarrel with your sister, do you want to force her to death?"
"Why are you arguing in the middle of the night?" Hongxiu is also a gossip. Hearing Qingpei say this, she became a little curious.
"I didn't dare to get too close. I didn't really hear it, so I heard her scolding my sister for being unruly, seducing, and so on." As she spoke, she smiled ambiguously, "No wonder the young master of the Wu family sent Aunt Chu to a nunnery.
So that’s how it is.”
Before Hong Xiu could speak, she heard the voices of Jiang Shang and Shan Boyuan coming from outside the carriage. They quickly pretended to take care of Manmei, pulled the thin quilt on her body, and reached out to touch her forehead to check the temperature.
.
Jiang Shang brought a bowl of hot ginger tea and woke up Man Miao, "Miao'er wake up, drink the ginger tea and make yourself sweat before going to sleep."
Manmei was in a bad mood, so she pretended to be dead, turned over in a daze, and said, "I don't want to drink, I feel bad, I have a bad headache, and I want to sleep."
Jiang Shang patiently persuaded her for a long time, and Manmei felt even more panicked. If Shan Bo hadn't been far away, she would have hit the bowl with her hand.
She simply covered her head with a quilt, "I won't drink, I won't drink, I want to sleep."
Seeing her acting like a child, Shan Boyuan also smiled in his eyes and advised Jiang Shang, "Let her have a good rest and boil some medicine after we go down the mountain."
Hong Xiu then said, "I touched the young lady's forehead just now. The fever is no longer there. Let the young lady sleep for a while. Maybe she can go down the mountain and she will be fine."
Seeing her refusal to cooperate and keeping her eyes closed, Jiang Shang said she had a headache, so he could only put the bowl down and let her sleep.
Where can Manmei sleep?
Fortunately, she is a calm person. She just controlled her breathing and pretended to be sleeping. Now that she has a master, Hongxiu and Qingpei don't dare to talk anymore. Jiang Shang and Shan Boyuan still have no words.
Kill time.
Going down the mountain was much smoother than yesterday. When we returned to the courtyard where Jiang Shang lived, Jiang Shang and Shan Boyuan thanked each other and got out of the car with Man Miao in their arms.
Jiang Shang had hugged Manmiao before. Manmiao felt that his chest was very generous and warm, which made her feel very at ease. But this time, she felt that she didn't want to feel his warmth. She looked up at Jiang Shang
, I felt that this man, who had always behaved so elegantly and gracefully, never thought that he would have such a hidden intention.
Thinking about it in a flash, he laughed. In fact, he took good care of himself on weekdays. The dignified heir to the Jiang family, the leader of the Jiang family who can take charge of Piaomiao Tower at a young age, how could he be such a simple person?
When Jiang Shang saw her smiling at him, he also laughed and said softly, "I have asked the doctor to prescribe medicine. You are not serious this time. You will be fine after taking a few medicines."
He nodded gracefully and said obediently, "Okay."
Jiang Shang asked the maid to prepare hot water for her, "Go wash up first and soak in the hot water. It will be much better."
He has always been gentle to others and could take good care of them as long as he wanted to.
Man Miao soaked in the steaming water. Water that was so hot in summer was a bit too hot. Thinking that she had a cold, she soaked for a while longer. Sure enough, her nose felt clear. She kept in mind the teachings of her doctor and relatives, once she found out that she had a cold.
, I started drinking boiling water, sweating all over my body, and finally suppressed the cold.
Jiang Shang saw that she was sick, so he didn't bother her much. Of course, he also didn't allow Chu Yue'er to go near Manmiao's room. According to the maid, Chu Yue'er was also very unusual. When she returned to the room, she kept the door tightly closed and did not show up.
Just after returning to the courtyard, many guests came. Some people heard about the attack on them last night. After watching Shan Boyuan, they came swarming to visit and express condolences to Jiang Shang, taking the opportunity to make more friends.
I haven't been idle all afternoon, and the yard has been bustling with people.
Manmiao sent the maid away, holding a large pot of boiling water and drinking continuously.
While she was drinking water and running to the toilet, her mind was not idle and she was constantly sorting out her thoughts.
Regardless of whether she admits it in her heart or not, all the clues point to one thing——
The relationship between Jiang Shang and Chu Xiner is not just that of cousin.
When she was in Jiangzuo, Jiang Shang was normal. Ever since Chu Yue'er arrived in Laizhou, Jiang Shang had behaved a little abnormally. At that time, she thought Jiang Shang was avoiding Chu Yue'er's harassment. Now that she thinks about it, it was probably because the matter involved
We’ve arrived at Chu Xiner, right?
My cousin, who is only one year younger, is sweet and sweet.
A boy and a girl who have just begun to fall in love spend time together day and night.
The disparity in family background and status separated the two lovers. One was hastily sold to a high family as a concubine, and the other wandered around the world sadly.
With this kind of plot and routine, you don’t need to read further, just look at the beginning to know what will follow.
If I had written it myself, Manmei would have written a touching and heart-wrenching love story.
Grandma has such legs!
Did she dig up the author's ancestral grave?
After finally An Yingying died, I thought I could control my own destiny, but in the end, in a roundabout way, I brought her in as a supporting actress!
Banana, you are so spicy!
It seems that the author has made up his mind to fight her to the death, and he can't bear to have her as the female supporting role over and over again!
Manmei thought about it for a while, but she was really angry! She threw the teapot to the ground with a bang, spilling water all over the floor. The peonies with golden lines were smashed to pieces, and the broken porcelain pieces scattered all over the floor.
The maid heard the noise in the room, pushed the door open and came in. She glanced at the debris on the ground, turned around and brought a broom, and comforted her, "Miss is sick and has no strength in her hands. It would be nice if you just call us for this kind of thing."
Manmei said nothing, looking down at the originally exquisite and beautiful peony pattern on the teapot, which was now swept away by the maid into a pile of messy garbage, and no one would take a second look at it.
She clenched her fists subconsciously. She wanted me to be the female supporting character, but she also wanted to see if you were destined to be the male lead and the female lead!
Glancing at the half-open door, there were still many guests in the yard. Jiang Shang and Yu Han kept entertaining the guests and were too busy to spare time to see her.
That's fine, she can have enough time to do what she wants.
In the final analysis, this is just a wonderful inference. From her own perspective, she vaguely hopes that her inference is wrong and that Jiang Shang really likes her, instead of using her as a shield or a substitute.
But judging from various signs, no other situation can be inferred.
She pretended to be unintentional and asked, "What is Chu Yue'er doing?"
The maid replied without raising her head, "My cousin said she was tired from coming down from the mountain and has been resting. We were standing outside just now and never saw her leave the room."
Probably everyone knows that she and Chu Yue'er don't deal with each other, and few people want to come up to cause trouble. They are all cautious in their words. Manmei sneered in her heart, when the Wu family left me behind, why weren't you afraid? You are afraid now.
, is it a little late?
She didn't believe Jiang Shang's explanation about the maid at all. What kind of suspicious person? The Wu family is also a well-known family. What kind of suspicious person broke in when there were so many guests and the security was tight? It's not like his head was kicked by a donkey. Besides,
Well, along the way, besides meeting Master Wu in the field, she saw a figure?
