I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 520 Note
Mammy Niu handed the folded note in her hand to Zhifu Jiao, and when she turned around and stood behind Mrs. Jiao, she inadvertently glanced at Aunt Huang below. I couldn't help but thumped.

After Mrs. Jiao's interrogation just now, the servants of the mansion did deliver the news from the backyard to the front yard, and then the coachman Tian Zhong sent it to the Yamen and handed it over to Steward Lin. Expand the note.

There was at least one line written on the two-finger-wide note, and Zhifu Jiao handed it to Mrs. Jiao on the right after reading it, "Madam, read it for yourself."

Mammy Niu felt something was wrong, and Mrs. Jiao, who was the head of the back house, naturally also noticed something was wrong, but after taking care of the back house affairs for many years, Mrs. Jiao had already developed the ability to hide her emotions and anger.

After taking the note and quickly glanced at it, Mrs. Jiao's mouth curled into a mocking sneer. It really was a good trick, after all, she underestimated Aunt Huang and her son.

However, thinking that the master has become more and more disappointed with Ping'er, the eldest son these years, Ping'er has become the villain, and Jiao Lianyu, a concubine, is praised by everyone in Qianzhong Mansion as a handsome gentleman, like a father, Madam Jiao is relieved again .

Freezing three feet is not a one-day cold, the master has recognized Jiao Lianyu as a concubine, no matter how much Ping'er does, it will be counterproductive.

Jiao Lianping, who was sitting below, looked at the silent Mrs. Jiao, and couldn't help calling out, "Mother?"

In terms of temperament, Ping'er is a few years older, but he is a little behind Jiao Lianyu. Mrs. Jiao is not disappointed, she has her own luck. Although her son has no talent in reading, he is a gentleman and open-minded.

Jiao Lianyu is a junior member of Qianzhong Mansion, but she is a hypocrite and a real villain inside. She is proficient in the tricks of the women in the back house, but in reality it is difficult to be elegant.

"Show Ping'er, let him know where he lost." Mrs. Jiao said softly, her face as calm as water.

Jiao Lianping looked at the note as evidence and couldn't help laughing. He was really stupid. Jiao Lianyu knew that Jiao's mansion was under the control of his mother, so why would he use a few servants to deliver the news? This is clearly a game. Otherwise, he would only use the dead soldiers cultivated secretly.

Looking up at Jiao Lianyu who stood beside him like a green bamboo, Jiao Lianping felt that he had lost a lot, and when it came to scheming and tactics, he had indeed lost several times.

"That's impossible!" A cry of exclamation sounded, but it was Mrs. Chen, who was peeking sideways, who couldn't help but speak out. The handwriting on the note was a bit scribbled. It could be seen that the person who wrote it was in a hurry at the time, so the handwriting was not neat enough.

Zhifu Jiao sighed, and looked down at Jiao Lianyu, "How did you find out about your elder brother?"

"Back to father, after eldest brother returned to the mansion, the housekeeper of the Chen family hurried over, and only then did I know that elder brother and the others had caused trouble in the first-class building." Jiao Lianyu said without any concealment, and these words also washed away his feelings. Send someone to follow up on Jiao Lianping's suspicion.

"Father is busy with official duties in the government office, and the incident has already happened, even if I punish my elder brother, it will not help. I planned to let Steward Lin hide the news, and then tell my mother to let her decide."

Lin Feng, who was standing by the side, also followed suit: "My lord has already heard the news, and my subordinates know that there is no way to hide it, so I didn't say any more."

How furious Zhifu Jiao was at that time, anyone who pleaded for mercy would only add fuel to the flames, there was nothing wrong with Lin Feng's move.

Zhifu Jiao nodded, knowing that Jiao Lianyu's words about not disturbing his official business were false, but he was just trying to delay the time. When his wife went to deal with the aftermath, even if he knew the news, he would not be furious.

It's a pity that Lianyu didn't expect that after Master Wei asked for leave, Master Hu immediately reported the matter to him.

"The matter has come to this point, it's useless to talk more, Lian Ping, go back and reflect on yourself." The magistrate Jiao said in a deep voice, after all, he was concerned about the face of Mrs. Jiao and the eldest son. Even if they wronged Lianyu, the magistrate Jiao didn't intend to pursue anything. And with Lianyu's mind, he will not hold grudges for being wronged.

"Ping'er, the weather is hot and wounds are easy to worsen. You should stay at home these few days and don't go out. Take care of your wounds." Mrs. Jiao stood up, but she didn't even bother to show hypocrisy.

As the magistrate's wife, let alone "mistaking" an aunt and a concubine, so what if Aunt Huang, mother and son were punished and beaten?The master dared to pursue the matter, and the reputation of a doting concubine and killing his wife spread, and the master's official position was not stable.

The magistrate Jiao took a look at the "dominant" wife and was disappointed. It was his wife's attitude that Lian Ping put up the airs of his son-in-law and targeted Lian Yu everywhere.

Aunt Huang, who had been silent all this time, saluted Zhifu Jiao and Mrs. Jiao softly, her voice was soft without any trace of resentment, "Master, madam, since there is nothing to do, Lianyu and I will leave first."

Aunt Huang turned around and saw Zhan Feiyu behind the crowd. After all, Zhan Feiyu in a moon-white pleated Ruyi skirt stood out among a group of gray and blue servants.

Probably Aunt Huang's dazed action was too obvious, and the prefect Jiao Zhifu and Mrs. Jiao were all dazed when they took a closer look.

Jiao Zhifu got up in shock, "Miss Zhan?"

The servants standing in front moved away in panic, Zhan Feiyu stepped forward, "I'm taking the liberty to disturb you, please forgive me, Lord Jiao."

After a while, all the servants in the room left in unison. After all, Zhan Feiyu is a girl, and Mrs. Jiao is more suitable here.

Jiao Lianping sat on the chair without moving, while Chen hesitated for a while and stood aside, but looked at Zhan Feiyu calmly, wondering why this little girl became her father's guest.

"Today is for the eldest son's business." When Zhan Feiyu said this, Zhifu Jiao and Mrs. Jiao's hearts skipped a beat.

Unlike Mrs. Chen who lives in the back house and is completely ignorant of the outside news, Mrs. Jiao knows Zhan Feiyu's identity very well, and she is afraid that she is here to Xingshi to question her.

The more polite Zhan Feiyu's attitude was, the more uneasy Mrs. Jiao felt. A ten-year-old girl was so offended that she could speak in such a calm manner. Forced into such a situation!
"The matter of Yipinlou was just an accident. I heard that Mr. Jiao is a strict father. I sent a letter to explain one or two things. Who would have thought that he would punish the eldest son, so I had to take the liberty to come to the door." Zhan Feiyu gestured. Nuan took the ointment over and said with a smile: "This is a good medicine for removing scars. As long as the wound is not deep and visible, there will be no scars after three months of application."

"Thank you, miss." Mrs. Jiao's hanging heart was completely relieved, and her complexion also eased, not only because of Zhan Feiyu's attitude, but also because of this ointment, there is no need to worry about leaving scars on Ping'er's face , affect future official career.

The prefect of Jiao also expressed his thanks. Less than half an hour before and after he beat the eldest son, Zhan Feiyu had already received the news, and even prepared the medicine to come to the door. This Jiao mansion has not been planted how many eyes and ears, it is the same situation in the mansion , not to mention the government office.

Compared with the ointment, Jiao Lianyu cared more about what Zhan Feiyu said just now, "Did you send someone to deliver the letter?"

The reason why the magistrate Jiao was so angry that he even whipped Jiao Lianping all over his body in a irrational manner was because he was worried that Zhan Feiyu would spread his anger to the whole Jiao mansion after being offended, and he would not let Jiao Lianping's son go.

So Jiao Zhifu can only "strike first to be strong", so Zhan Feiyu can't take revenge on Jiao Lianping.

But who would have thought that Zhan Feiyu, who was determined to retaliate and ruthlessly destroyed the arms of Cai Zhiyuan's personal soldiers, would let Jiao Lianping go, and even wrote a letter in person.

"Butler Niu!" Mrs. Jiao said under suppressed anger. If there was such a letter, it must have been delivered to the front yard. If the master is not in the mansion, this letter will definitely be delivered to her as soon as possible.

But at this moment, if Zhan Feiyu hadn't mentioned it, Mrs. Jiao wouldn't even know the existence of this letter.

Butler Niu had been waiting outside the door, so he heard Zhan Feiyu's words, so he immediately entered the room to plead guilty, "Master, madam, I don't know about this."

Butler Niu married Mrs. Jiao's dowry maid. It is absolutely impossible to say that he concealed the letter to frame Jiao Lianping.
