The mother of the Hou family eavesdropped on my inner thoughts and went crazy, I won by sucking milk

Jiang Wanqing couldn't help but hold his forehead as Jiang Wushang's words became more and more outrageous.

He gave a bitter smile and interrupted quickly: "That's enough, Third Brother, this is really not the case."

Jiang Wushang frowned and became a little impatient: "Then what's going on? Tell me yourself."

Jiang Wanqing then slowly explained: "I met Eunuch Fang Su by chance. We met at the princess's residence. When he saw the little cutie, he decided to adopt her as his goddaughter.

Because of his status as a eunuch, he was afraid that outsiders would look at him differently, so he did not make a big fuss about adopting a daughter. Only you, my third brother, knew about it."

After a pause, Jiang Wanqing sighed and said seriously: "Third brother, the relationship between me and Eunuch Fang Su is really not what you think. He came here because he was afraid that something would happen to me and Xiaoxiao would lose her mother."

This explanation is much more reasonable.

Jiang Wushang also breathed a sigh of relief: "Since everything is fine, that's good. Don't worry, I won't tell my family about what happened today. It's late now, you should go to bed early, I still have to take care of Zongzheng Wuyou."

After saying that, Jiang Wushang turned and left, heading in the direction where Zong Zheng Wuyou had left earlier.

Shui Yun took a few steps forward and came to Jiang Wanqing's side.

Jiang Wanqing lowered his eyes and asked, "After Zong Zheng Wuyou and I fell off the cliff, did anything else happen?"

Shui Yun said, "My master fell off the cliff, so I jumped down as well. According to Tu Yu, those men in black didn't leave any evidence, so I can't tell who sent them to assassinate me."

can not tell?

Jiang Wanqing raised his eyebrows.

So, it is not known whether these people came for her or for Zong Zheng Wuyou.

Jiang Wanqing didn't think about it too much anymore.

I was just about to go back to my room to rest.

Then I heard the sound of horse hooves.

At this point, there are still people coming from far away?

who is it?

Jiang Wanqing stopped, turned around and looked at several horses galloping towards them in the distance.

"Oh~"

Those people stopped in front of Jiang Wanqing.

Shui Yun subconsciously stood in front of Jiang Wanqing.

Just looking at those men, they were actually wearing the clothes of servants in the Marquis of Xingchang's mansion.

This is interesting.

The leading servant stepped forward and bowed to Jiang Wanqing.

"lady."

Jiang Wanqing narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the leading servant.

The servant's every move did not seem like that of a servant, and his appearance seemed normal.

He immediately asked, "What are you doing here?"

The servant said, "The old lady knew that Madam would not return home today, and was afraid that Zhuyun Villa was too remote, so she was worried about Madam. Therefore, she specially asked us to come and see how Madam was doing."

Jiang Wanqing laughed out loud when she heard this: "Mother-in-law does care about me. I'm fine. The guards of Zhuyun Villa are not just for show."

The servant paused, then asked, "It's getting late today, why is Madam still at the gate of Zhuyun Villa at this time?"

Jiang Wanqing narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the servant, and a coldness flashed in his eyes.

Then he said, "The moonlight is nice today. My brother, Prince Zong Zheng and I just came out to enjoy the moon. Prince Zong Zheng broke his leg while walking at night, so we just came back. Is there a problem? If you don't believe me, you can go to the room and see if the three of us are staying with Prince Zong Zheng."

The servant hesitated for a moment, "Are you the only one in this Zhuyun Villa, Madam, the Third Young Master Jiang, and Prince Zongzheng?"

Jiang Wanqing sneered when she heard this and asked, "Apart from us, is there anyone else here? What on earth did mother-in-law send you here for? Could it be that you want to see if I have a secret meeting with another lover while I am here?

I tell you! My brother is still here, and the girl from the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion will never do such a thing!"

The servant quickly shook his head and even lowered his head: "Madam, you misunderstood. It's just that the old lady is worried about you. Why did you come out of the mansion for no reason? Moreover, you didn't even bring the young lady with you."

Jiang Wanqing felt disdainful in her heart. Why would Old Madam Zhou worry about her?

At most, he was afraid that he would be cuckolded by Zhou Zigu!

Jiang Wanqing said in a cold voice: "Zhuyun Villa is so far away, and today they have invited so many noble ladies and noblemen from the capital. As the owner of Zhuyun Villa, how can I attract business with my child?

If I can't make money, do you servants still expect to get monthly wages? Nowadays, in such a big mansion, there is no one working. Everyone is waiting for food or for pie to fall from the sky.

Sister Nan Sheng is going to give birth soon, which means there will be one more mouth to feed. Mu Sheng has to hire a new teacher. The mother-in-law doesn't care about anything all day and just stays in her Buddhist temple. The third sister is not married yet.

If mother-in-law wants you to care about me, you might as well share more of the burden for me and give me some money."

At the end, Jiang Wanqing looked full of complaints.

Looking at the servants in front of him, he couldn't contain the anger on his face.

The servant's eyes flickered, and a chill gradually spread around his body.

After a long while, he lowered his head and whispered, "Knowing that Madam is fine, we will also take our leave."

After saying this, the leading servant pulled the reins again, jumped onto the horse's back, and rode away again.

Shuiyun watched those people disappear.

He frowned and said, "The man who was leading the group just now should have been wearing a human skin mask. I have never seen that man in the Marquis of Xingchang's mansion."

The gentleness on Jiang Wanqing's face froze in her eyes.

His eyes darkened, he sneered, and said, "That person is Zhou Zigu."

"Zhou Zigu?"

Shui Yun widened her eyes and turned to look at Jiang Wanqing: "Madam, why are you so sure?"

Jiang Wanqing explained: "When he appeared, I hated him for no reason. Maybe he is evil in his bones and has a bad smell.

Moreover, his figure was very similar to Zhou Zigu's, and he didn't look like a servant at all. He happened to be pretending to be a servant in the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion. Isn't it very easy to guess who he was?

I think... maybe he discovered the story of the refugees, or the story of the miracle doctor, or maybe he and King Cheng'an were infected with the plague? So he suspected me, and that's why he came here."

Shui Yun lowered her eyes and said, "We went to the ruined temple in the dead of night, and we checked the traces along the way very well. There shouldn't be any evidence left."

Jiang Wanqing didn't care: "Even if there is evidence, so what? Those who should be killed should be killed, and those who should be destroyed should be destroyed."

After hearing this, Shui Yun asked again: "If that's the case, when will we release the miracle doctor?"

Jiang Wanqing's eyes were filled with coldness: "Let the matter continue to spread for a while. Looking at Zhou Zigu's current state, he has not been punished by His Royal Highness Prince Cheng'an yet."

She has to add some fuel to the fire. Only in this way will her good husband come home, right?

but…

I think there will be better news tomorrow.

I hope Mu Sheng won’t let himself down.
