lucky star girl

Chapter 163 Framing
Xu Yanzhu finally left the hall and returned to her yard. She couldn't forget the way Jiang Han looked at her before she left.

But she had to leave. For her next plan, she had to draw a line with Jiang Han.

No matter what was going on between him and Mrs. Jiang, Xu Yanzhu didn't want to know, let alone get involved.

As soon as Cuihua saw Xu Yanzhu come back, she immediately brought two maidservants named Huayu and Huaci by Xu Yanzhu to serve her.

"Big girl, what's wrong with you?"

These days, Cuihua is busy handing things over to Huayu and Huaci, so she doesn't often serve Xu Yanzhu's side, but she never thought that she just didn't stay with the eldest girl for a while today, and the eldest girl actually He came back with a blank face.

After Xu Yanzhu heard Cuihua's voice, the tense strings in his heart finally relaxed, "I'm fine, Cuihua, you take Huayu to prepare some food for me and bring it to me, and Huaci stays for serving."

As soon as Cuihua heard Xu Yanzhu's words, she didn't ask any more questions, but nodded to her, and then led Huayu out of the room directly.

After Cuihua left with Huayu, Xu Yanzhu looked at Huaci and said, "Huaci, can you contact him as soon as possible, I want to leave the Jiang family earlier."

After today's incident, Xu Yanzhu didn't want to stay at Jiang's house for a day. She was really afraid that Jiang Han, a lunatic, would attack her.

Even if Jiang Han doesn't attack him, there is still Mrs. Jiang.

Although almost all the connections in her hands are suppressed by Jiang Han now, who knows if there are any connections in her hands that Jiang Han doesn't know.

If the two of them didn't tear each other apart before and maintained a superficial peace, as long as she pays attention, she will definitely not be affected.

But right now, it's really hard to tell.

When Hua Ci heard Xu Yanzhu's words, he immediately frowned and said, "Madam, did something happen today?" After saying this, Hua Ci paused and continued: "Madam, things are very complicated at the master's place. The servant sends a letter to the master, but the master may not receive it in time."

When Xu Yanzhu heard Huaci's words, he paused for a moment, and then said: "In that case, let's send the letter first. I'm the only one here to be more careful."

Huaci heard Xu Yanzhu's words, and hurriedly answered: "Madam, don't worry, the master has explained to the servant and Huayu before leaving, if something happens, just take the lady away."

Xu Yanzhu didn't answer when she heard Huaci's words. She knew in her heart that Huaci and Huayu really had the ability to take her away.

But what about after she leaves?

Will Jiang Han, a lunatic, go home to find his grandmother and third uncle and aunt?

She didn't dare to try, and she couldn't just leave like this until the matter was resolved and she had no worries at all.

For their own affairs, whether it is the grandmother or the third uncle and three aunts, they have spent a lot of thought, she can't be so selfish.

Seeing that Xu Yanzhu didn't speak again, Huaci guessed some of her thoughts, but both she and Huayu understood that if something really happened, they would definitely take their wife and leave.

Xu Shiqiu and the others don't know what happened to the Jiang family for the time being.

Because tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dong Shu also prepared a lot of delicious food early, and she even started making mooncakes herself this afternoon.

"Make some moon cakes. The elder brother, the second elder brother's house, and the elder sister's house all want to send some." After saying this, Dong Shu rubbed her arms, and continued to say to Xu Shiqiu: "I will have some more tomorrow morning." I will go to the palace to visit the empress, so I can only prepare these ingredients this afternoon, wake up early tomorrow, bake them and enter the palace immediately."

Xu Shiqiu hugged Yuan Xi, and Yuan Xi leaned obediently in his father's arms, staring at his mother with big eyes.

"Then you don't have to do everything yourself, there are so many servants in the house, let them help you prepare the ingredients, and you can control the taste in the end." While speaking, Xu Shiqiu looked at Dong Shu and sighed, and then continued: " I know that you are sincerely filial to the empress, but you can't tire yourself because of these mooncakes. If the empress knows that you are tired of eating, she will definitely blame you."

Dong Shu understood that what her husband said was reasonable, but she felt that she had no other ability to express her filial piety to the queen except for cooking some food with her own hands.

"It's because I've been too free to work recently. Before I got married, I had to do it every year." Dong Shu's cheeks were slightly red. She said this, but she really thought so in her heart.

Before thinking about myself, I didn't feel tired when I had to wash the family's clothes and do other things alone.

But now, he was just busy making some moon cakes all afternoon, and there were several servants behind him to help, so his arms were sore from exhaustion.

When Xu Shiqiu heard Dong Shu's words, she understood what she meant, "Now it is not comparable to before. The lady still has to housekeeper, and many things in the house have to be worried about by the lady. And Yuan Xi, although there are nurses and maids Waiting, I know very well that you have to spend one or two hours a day with her." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu glanced at the little lady who dared not meet his eyes, and continued with a smile: "So Don't work so hard in the future, my lady, your filial piety to the empress must be clear to you."

Dong Shu was embarrassed by what Xu Shiqiu said, but she didn't nod in agreement with Xu Shiqiu.

Dong Shu thought simply, the empress was so kind to her, she had nothing else to give to the empress, only the moon cakes made by herself, she thought it was not bad, she could make some for the empress to taste.

Seeing that Dong Shu was silent, Xu Shiqiu guessed what she was thinking.

Xu Shiqiu didn't speak again, because he understood that although his little lady is straightforward, there are some things that she will not change easily once she has made up her mind.

"I don't need to go to the barracks tomorrow. You go to the palace to visit the empress, and I happen to be in the palace too." Xu Shiqiu felt that although there was King Duan in this confrontation, it was better to go to the palace to meet Emperor Ruikang by himself.

Especially when there were two generals who had accidents at this time, those two were still a little unhappy with me before, and they would definitely guess that they had plotted against them.

Xu Shiqiu's guess was right. After calming down, the bearded general and the long-faced general began to worry that they might be tricked by Xu Shiqiu.

When someone came to interrogate them, they naturally told the matter.

The two of them thought simply, no matter whether this matter had anything to do with Xu Shiqiu or not, they should bite it out first, what if they could save themselves?

The two were detained separately, but Xu Shiqiu was bitten out at the same time.

There was no need to disturb Emperor Ruikang about this matter. Although they were both generals, their rank was not high enough for Emperor Ruikang to worry about them during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

But they bit Xu Shiqiu out. In this case, the people below had to report it.

Early in the morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu entered the palace together, bringing Yuan Xi with them.

Yesterday, Dong Shu asked Nanny Yan to deliver a letter to Fengyi Palace, and today she will bring Yuan Xi to visit Empress Hu.

It's just that Empress Hu didn't expect that she would see Xu Shiqiu by the way.

"Why did you come to this palace?" When Empress Hu saw Yuan Xi and Dong Shu, she waved to them joyfully, and even carried Yuan Xi skillfully into her arms.

But Xu Shiqiu, who was standing next to Dong Shu, surprised her.

Xu Shiqiu didn't say that he actually wanted to see Emperor Ruikang, he said to Empress Hu: "The empress regards the wife as a daughter, and this son-in-law always wants to come to let the empress see."

Empress Hu did not expect Xu Shiqiu to say such words to herself. Although Xu Shiqiu's words were bold, she listened to them kindly.

Since she really regarded Dong Shu as her daughter, she naturally looked at Xu Shiqiu as a son-in-law.

Empress Hu didn't respond, but Dong Shu was a little embarrassed by Xu Shiqiu's words.

"Niang Niang, in fact, it is rare for Xiang Gong to rest at home, so he sent me and Yuan Xi into the palace." Dong Shu took two steps forward, sat down on Empress Hu and lowered her head as usual, and then continued: "Still Yes, I think Mr. Xiang is here to complain to you."

As soon as Dong Shu finished speaking, Empress Hu looked at Xu Shiqiu doubtfully and said, "Are you really here to complain?"

When Xu Shiqiu heard what the little lady said just now, he guessed that she did it on purpose.

It was one thing that he didn't expect the little lady to become so lively, but Xu Shiqiu also understood that she was deliberately trying to draw her into the relationship with Queen Hu.

After figuring this out, Xu Shiqiu said directly to Empress Hu: "It is true." After that, Xu Shiqiu, under Empress Hu's perplexed gaze, said that Dong Shu wanted to make mooncakes with her own hands. I can't get up, I got up early today to bake mooncakes.

"Your Majesty, do you think what I said is right? Nowadays, my wife needs to be involved in everything at home. She has so many things to do every day. This morning, I can't stop her. She even got up early and baked more than 100 pieces of mooncakes with her own hands. "After saying this, Xu Shiqiu sighed and continued: "Although I also want to eat the mooncakes made by her, I really don't want her to work so hard."

Empress Hu understood what Xu Shiqiu meant when he was halfway through his speech. Thinking that Dong Shu had made more than 100 mooncakes with her own hands, but she only had 20 yuan here, she knew that she must have given them to other people as well.

"Shi Qiu is right. Now that your status is different, how can you really spend so much effort to do these things with your own hands. As for those ladies and ladies who said they cooked the food by themselves, who didn't take a second look, and then let the servants You did it. You are honest, you did it yourself, and you did so much.”

What Queen Hu said was also true.

The women or girls of rich families say that they cook the food by themselves, but most of them just take a second look, and then let the servants do it.There are only a small number of them, and maybe you can touch them twice, but there is really no such thing as Dong Shu who does it all by himself.

Dong Shu also knew that Xianggong and Queen Hu were doing it for her own good, so she just smiled silly, but didn't say anything.

Both Xu Shiqiu and Queen Hu understood her temperament, seeing her like this, they could only smile helplessly, and couldn't say anything more.

But because of this matter, Empress Hu was even more satisfied with Xu Shiqiu.

She looked at Xu Shiqiu, and was just about to ask Nanny Su to lead him to the side hall for tea so that she could whisper to Dong Shu, but Emperor Ruikang sent someone to ask Xu Shiqiu to question him.

The servant didn't know if he was really stupid or he was ordered by someone, so he deliberately revealed in front of Queen Hu, saying that Xu Shiqiu was involved in the life lawsuit.

Upon hearing this, Empress Hu immediately changed her face.

In Empress Hu's view, Dong Shu is dragging her family to see her on the Mid-Autumn Festival today, because she is afraid that she will feel lonely on this day of reunion.

But Emperor Ruikang, it's fine if he doesn't come in person, but he even sent someone to her palace to call for someone.

Thinking of this in her heart, Empress Hu said directly: "I will go with you." After saying this, Empress Hu smiled coldly and continued: "I want to see who is going to frame you."
