Jiang Mingxiu's eyelashes trembled and he looked at her in shock. He opened his mouth several times, but his throat seemed to be stuck and no sound came out.
Want to?
That's what I wanted to do.
Under such temptation, he nodded mysteriously.
Seeing this, Jiang Shanshan raised his lips with satisfaction.
In the doorway of the stove, the fire danced, and there was a sound of dry wood exploding.
When Jiang Mingxuan saw the two of them again, he saw Jiang Mingxiu obediently carrying the teapot and following behind his sister.
"So you and sister are together, I thought..."
"Thought he was out?"
Jiang Shanshan smiled and greeted the two of them into the room.
"Don't worry, as long as no one says, they still have a few days to find this place."
After all, Biluo Courtyard is a place that no master wants to come to.
Just because the old lady dislikes this place very much.
In this way, Jiang Mingxiu really hid in Biluo Courtyard for several days.
And in Beijing, some opinions gradually spread.
After receiving the news, the uncle of the Jiang family returned to the mansion and immediately went to the eldest lady to inquire.
After learning the whole story, he frowned rather unhappily.
"Lao Er's family is doing this again. How many times have I told you that if you want to bully someone, just close the door and ask the servants to keep their mouths shut."
When he thought of several censors coming to question him today, he became even more angry.
"Go and deal with this matter thoroughly. Don't leave any clues to others. There are many people staring at the Sixth Prince now. If something goes wrong, no one can afford it."
The eldest lady was surprised, "How did this matter reach the ears of the censor?"
"How do I know? Please take a look and find out which servant failed to keep his mouth shut and changed it as soon as possible."
The eldest lady responded hurriedly, but she was also filled with doubts in her heart.
She had replaced the servants in the mansion countless times, and the affairs of the Jiang family were rarely exposed to the public. How could something like this suddenly happen and be known to the censor.
I originally wanted to ask again, but unexpectedly someone came from the old lady's place and asked Uncle Jiang to come over, which made the old lady feel a little nervous.
"Just do as I say. I'll just go to my mother's place."
Uncle Jiang patted her hand and said, hearing this, the eldest lady breathed a sigh of relief.
"yes……"
Seeing people leaving, she immediately took them to the second room, "Hongyu, haven't you found that Jiang Mingxiu yet?"
"Go back to Madam, I was just about to report. I have found him, but he is in Biluo Courtyard."
The eldest lady paused, "Biluoyuan?"
"Yes, I guess he ran in a few days ago."
"They know each other!"
With an affirmative tone, he thought of something almost subconsciously, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
On the way to the second room, she kept thinking about this matter. It was such a coincidence that she happened to make trouble in front of the censor again.
If Jiang Mingxiu is really pursued, someone will definitely find a clue.
What a conspiracy.
When they arrived at the second room, the eldest lady suddenly said to Hongyu: "Go and take the person out properly. It is common for children to fight and fight."
Hong Yu understood what she meant, lowered her head and said: "Yes!"
Watching the eldest lady leave, Hong Yu took the two maids and walked towards Biluo Courtyard.
The courtyard door was still locked. When the gatekeeper saw her, she immediately came up to her and said, "Aunt Hongyu, why are you here today? Is there something wrong?"
"Open the door."
"Ah?" The old woman quickly glanced at the two maids behind her and nodded: "Yes..."
Inside, Jiang Mingxiu, who had heard the commotion, tightened his grip on his clothes. Not long after, he saw Hong Yu leading someone in.
In the room, Jiang Shanshan was holding his head as if waiting for her. Hongyu glanced at the people standing behind Jiang Mingxuan and nodded to them.
"Fifth young lady, this servant has been ordered by the eldest lady to come and take the fifth young master back."
"oh?"
Jiang Shanshan glanced at the nervous Jiang Mingxiu and said, "But I feel close to my fifth brother when I see him. I want to keep him for a few more days so that I can play with my brother, isn't that okay?"
"Fifth young lady, this servant is here just under orders. If you want to keep the fifth young master, you can go and talk to the eldest lady in person."
"Really? Then I'll go back and ask the eldest lady for instructions."
Jiang Shanshan looked at her with a smile, "Is there anything else? Aunt Hongyu?"
Hearing this, Hong Yu lowered her eyes, "The eldest lady said, please ask the fifth young master to go back with your slave immediately."
"What if I say no?"
"Fifth girl, please don't embarrass me."
"Aunt Hongyu, what do you say? Why are you embarrassment? I just want to keep a younger brother, and do I need the eldest lady's consent?"
Jiang Shanshan stood up, came to Hong Yu, glanced at the two maids behind her who were wary, and looked away disdainfully.
"We, my sister and I, can't leave this yard on weekdays. Not only do we have to work as slaves, but our lives are worse than those of servants.
Aunt Hongyu, now I want to go to war so much just to save one person, are we siblings so shameless?"
Hong Yu suddenly raised her eyes, "Fifth girl, you can't do this."
There were other people in the room, and they all had different expressions after hearing this. Although they didn't say anything, it was wrong after all.
Hong Yu's heart sank slightly, and she could only say: "Five girls, I will bring you here, so I will leave now."
With that said, she bowed slightly and left.
The two maids hurriedly followed.
Jiang Mingxiu breathed a sigh of relief and felt that his back was already wet.
But when he looked at Jiang Shanshan, his eyes were filled with gratitude and admiration.
"Well, now we can at least keep quiet for a few more days. We can talk about other things later."
"yes……"
Jiang Mingxiu happily agreed.
Jiang Shanshan paused and raised his lips.
After leaving Biluo Courtyard, Hongyu walked a little faster, and the two maids couldn't keep up. They panted and said: "Aunt Hongyu, can you slow down a little bit?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Hongyu turned around suddenly, and the two of them almost bumped into her and were startled.
"Hong, Aunt Hongyu..."
Hong Yu's face was not so good. He looked at them, pursed his lips and said, "If you want to survive, don't make random guesses. If you shouldn't say anything, never say it."
The two of them were stunned for a moment. They didn't have time to think too much and immediately agreed: "Yes, I can save it."
Hearing this, Hongyu nodded. Whether they really understood or not was not her concern.
After all, I've been warned.
When they returned to the main courtyard, Hongyu pushed the two maids away, called for a mother, and gave a few instructions in a low voice. After the latter agreed, she followed the two maids.
The eldest lady came out of the second room with a blue face, and the few cronies around her did not dare to say anything. They just lowered their heads and helped her leave.
The eldest lady and the second lady were at odds with each other, and everyone knew this, but to their surprise, the second lady didn't give her any face at all today, and even criticized her and said she was unlucky because she could not give birth to a son.
How can this be tolerated?
Seeing that she was so angry, her mother who was holding her could feel her arm being squeezed tightly, and couldn't help but worry about her, "Madam, don't get so angry because of this kind of people, she is stabbing you on purpose!"
