Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 264 The Poor Girl Who Doesn't Want To Be Seen (Third)

Madam Ning felt sorry for her when she heard the words. If so, the situation is indeed a bit tricky.It's just that it's obviously wrong for the girl's family to have an accident without notifying her at home.What's more... In fact, they all know that even if this person is found, he will probably be seriously injured.

People are lost by myself, these young girls can't take care of the details, but I have the responsibility to think about them for them.

"No..." The old lady thought for a while, "Give the letter to Wuyan's elder brother? In this way, you can also hide it from some old people."

Ziqiu blinked, with a strange expression on his face, as if he was not sure, "Is this okay? We, our young master are not, not very popular, right! The young master does business for more than half a year. I'm away all the time, I don't have a home! The girl was in the south of the Yangtze River before, and she was only accompanied by the girl's grandmother, so I sent this letter back rashly, I'm afraid it's... I'm afraid it's..."

Ziqiu was nervous for a while, suddenly stunned for a while, and his expression was so rich that he was a little dazed.Madam Ning looked behind her and exchanged a strange look with Nanny Han.

Nanny Han asked casually, "Then... where is Miss Ji's father and mother?"

Ziqiu's expression froze, and he blinked tactically. He looked a little dazed on the surface, but his mind was spinning faster than ever.After the girl came to Yanjing City, nine out of ten sentences she said were all false. Sometimes she was present and remembered some, and sometimes she was not present, so she had no idea what the girl said.

So much so that it became more and more difficult to round up the field at this moment.

Ziqiu gritted his teeth, and explained bravely, "The girl and her parents... are not very close. They were brought up by their grandmother when they were young. Mmm... madam and master... don't live with her..."

After stumbling, a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She adhered to the principle of saying too many mistakes and trying to be vague in a few words, but she could explain the general meaning clearly.

After Mrs. Ning listened, her brows became even more frowning.Before she asked about Wuyan, she only said that her elder was still alive and that she had a brother who was running a small business, which sounded amicable and beautiful, but it didn’t come to her mind, but now she said it through this maid, it sounded like she was not treated by her biological parents See, the poor child who was fostered by his grandmother...

The old lady even subconsciously imagined the drama of "preferring boys to girls", and then sighed secretly, she just felt that it was really difficult for a child who grew up in such an environment to have such a magnanimity.On the contrary, the one who grew up loved by gold, jade, and arrogance became selfish and numb.

Thinking of it this way, my heart became more and more depressed, and I didn't notice some claims that I couldn't stand firmly under careful study for a while.

Ziqiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

……

The three of them were silent for about a stick of incense. During this period, Ziqiu kept persuading the old lady to go back to the house to rest, but the old lady had to wait for a result. After drinking several cups of strong tea, she waited for Cen Yan to appear.

The old lady stepped forward to greet her, "Ru, what's the matter?" Her voice was very low, as if she was afraid of waking up someone's dream.

Cen Yan bowed politely, "Returning to Mrs. Ning, the doctor said that Miss Shen had some skin trauma, mainly because she was frightened, and she went into a convulsion when she heard that the girl was missing, and she will probably wake up tomorrow. As for my girl ..."

Said, bowed his head.

That means I haven't found it yet... The old lady's feet were weak, she tried her best to stand still with the door frame, raised her hand and waved it behind her, rejecting Ziqiu's support.

She lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then made up her mind, "So, girl... Your name is Ziqiu, right?"

Ziqiu was slightly taken aback, but he didn't expect that the old lady could even remember the name of other maids, so she nodded immediately and said, "Yes, old lady, just tell me."

"Ziqiu, I'm going back to write a letter tonight... Well, if it's getting late today, the gate of the palace should be locked when I rush over. I'll go into the palace tomorrow, early in the morning, to see the empress. What about you? I'll write down where Wuyan's parents live, and I'll send someone to send it urgently." Seeing that Ziqiu seemed to be hesitant, she thought she was worried about the "unfamiliar" parents, and her heart ached even more Ji Wuyan said, "Ziqiu, don't worry, if I come forward here, they always want to give Ningguo government some face. Besides, even if there is no such thing, I still want to meet Wuyan's relatives ..."

Ziqiu is one head and two older—it is one thing to see relatives, but now this is a play played by the girl. If Jiangnan is really alarmed, the consequences will be disastrous!She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, wishing she could stomp her feet and turn around two or three times to vent her helplessness.

Bisheng... dare not.

Secretly raised his eyes to look at Cen Yan, Cen Yan looked at his nose and his heart, with a certainty of "I'm not here, none of you can see me".

Ziqiu felt that after living for so many years, she had lied and used as many brains as tonight. She shook the veil, hesitated for a while, bit her lip and said, "Old lady...it's like this... Because the girl is not close to her parents, and they haven't had much contact with each other for many years, the slaves don't remember where they live now... In this way, you should go back and rest first, and no matter how urgent this matter is, we will not talk about it until tomorrow. When Gucuo came back, the servant asked him, he knew, and the servant will send it to you tomorrow morning, how about it?"

Nanny Han also persuaded from the side, "Yes, old madam, it's getting late. Don't say you're tired after traveling all day, even these Miss Ji's subordinates should be tired too. Get a good sleep tonight." I feel that I will have the strength to continue looking for someone tomorrow, don’t you think so?”

Since the old lady fell there, her body is not as good as before. The imperial doctor ordered that she must rest well. She was restless a while ago, and she finally got better after using Miss Ji's prescription a few days ago. , did not expect...

The old lady didn't want to leave, she wanted to wait.But Nanny Han's words are also reasonable, and it's okay for me to say that these girls and boys have been frightened and frightened for a whole day, and they are tired of looking for people all day, and they still have injuries on their bodies. They should take a good rest and nod their heads in response. Said, "I was negligent... I will go back first, you all have a good rest, don't worry. No matter what happens, come to Ning's house to find me at any time."

Saying that, she turned to look at Ziqiu, "Girl...the things here, I'll have to work hard for you..."

Ziqiu gritted his teeth and nodded silently...

Before leaving Jiangnan, Mrs. Ji also explained in this way. She said, "Ziqiu, Ning'er has a lot of ideas, and I can't stop her. It's just that being away from home is nothing compared to my own home, so I... entrusted her to is you."

Similar tone, same worry... Ziqiu suddenly felt that the girl was actually quite lucky.
