Chapter 22
At this time, Zhu Jing just looked at the second aunt who was kneeling on the ground, and saw that she was kneeling on the ground now, her face was covered with tears, her hair was messy, her makeup was worn out, and she looked extremely embarrassed, so she couldn't help asking in a soft tone.
"Yes, master, this servant has been with Madam for so many years, and the sisterly love is deep. Although the young lady is not relative to the servant, the servant also watched her grow up. Now that Madam is gone, the servant feels sad, and feels the same for the young lady. Therefore, I was afraid that she would look at things and think about others, so I made such a bad plan, but I didn't expect that it would anger the eldest lady. The young lady is so unwilling to understand the servant, it really makes the servant feel cold! Master, the servant is really wronged!"
The second aunt acted according to the wind, and instantly described this act of abandoning righteousness as an act of deep friendship, which is really admirable.But if it wasn't for Zhu Zichan's reminder, she wouldn't have thought of this level, so after she finished speaking, she bent down on purpose and blinked at Zhu Zichan, praising her wit and intelligence in this way.
Zhu Zichan also blinked mischievously, and stuck out her tongue.It's just a pity that Zhu Jing never saw these small actions.
"So, it's also for this reason that you arranged Zixin to go to Dongli Courtyard?"
Zhu Jing picked up the tea bowl on the table, fiddled with the tea foam with the tea lid, and asked.While speaking, his eyelids never lifted.
The second aunt raised her head, looked at Zhu Jing, and saw that he was drinking tea from the teacup on the table. Seeing that he couldn't see what was going on in his heart, she had to bite the bullet and answer: "Yes, this servant is entirely for the sake of the eldest lady."
After Er Yiniang finished speaking, Zhu Jing didn't speak. After a long silence, he put the teacup heavily on the table and said:
"Hmph! If that's the case, I'll trust you once. If you do it again next time, you'd better find a good reason!" Zhu Jing said as he put down his teacup.
After finishing speaking, he looked at the three kneeling people, and said again: "Go down."
"Yes."
After hearing this, Second Aunt hurriedly got up, and obediently withdrew.Zhu Ziqi and Zhu Zichan also followed her and were about to leave, but Zhu Jing said again: "Chan'er, you stay here, Dad has something to tell you."
Zhu Zichan was clever all over, stopped in her tracks, and the second aunt who dared to step out of the door also turned her head in fright, and kept mouthing at Zhu Zichan: "Chan'er, you can't let your mouth slip, help me, help me!" mother!"
After finally escaping, Second Aunt didn't want to be reprimanded by the master again.
"Got it, let's go."
Zhu Zichan waved his hand, signaling Second Aunt to leave quickly.Just now turning around, he first smiled at Zhu Jing, then walked over and called out, "Father."
"Ah."
Zhu Jing agreed, took another sip of tea, and then said, "Chan'er, you are the one Dad loves the most, do you know why?"
"Father! I... Chan'er doesn't know."
Zhu Zichan lowered his head, showing shame.
"Father likes Bodhisattva Chan'er's heart the most, broad-minded and masculine. If you weren't a girl, you would definitely be my right-hand man."
At this point, Zhu Jing paused, and then said again: "It's just a pity! You are a daughter!"
"father!"
Zhu Zichan yelled, and was about to speak, but Zhu Jing said again: "You don't need to say anything, in fact, father knows everything in his heart! As long as you remember, father has the highest expectations of you in our Jinyang Marquis Mansion, In the future, don't you want to disappoint Dad!"
"Father! I..."
Hearing Zhu Jing's words, Zhu Zichan's face suddenly flashed with guilt, and she wanted to say something, but she paused, but finally swallowed the rest of the words.
"Go, Dad is tired and wants to rest!"
Zhu Jing waved his hand.
"Yes."
Zhu Zichan responded and withdrew.
Zhu Jing was still sitting there. At this moment, a figure of a woman appeared in his mind. The woman's name was Caidie. He was fascinated by her unique temperament. In order to see her again, he searched for her for a long time. Later, he finally found her and made a couple with her. However, what happened later...
Naturally, many things happened later, and Cai Die finally jumped into the lake because of those things.When she went, she was still pregnant with his child!
Thinking of this, tears flashed in Zhu Jing's eyes.
The men in the Zhu family are thin, and the only son is the adopted illegitimate son of Zhu Jing's elder brother Zhu Fan who was born to another woman outside. Although he also loves his father and son with his son, but after all, he is not Zhu Jing's own son, so it is inevitable to feel sad in his heart!
The reason why he had higher expectations for Zhu Zichan was also because her character was very similar to that of Cai Die back then, innocent, lively and lovely,
Good hearted!Just now he had clearly guessed her intentions, but he didn't expose her because she was his favorite daughter.
At this moment, when Zhu Zichan recalled the memories of the past, Zhu Jing inevitably felt a trace of sadness...
"Chan'er, what's the matter? Did your father become suspicious? What did he tell you?"
Besides, just as Zhu Zichan walked out of the door, someone grabbed her arm. It was her mother and second aunt, Ge Lirong. He took Zichan's hand and asked as he walked.
"Mother, let's go back to Guihuayuan first, there are many people here."
But Zhu Zichan looked around and said.
"Yeah. Chan'er is right. Let's go."
Second Aunt also thought it made sense, so she said.After finishing speaking, he hurried away like Guihuayuan.
As soon as she entered the door, Second Aunt couldn't wait to say to the servants
: "You all go down!"
Zhu Zichan saw that those girls had all walked out of the door, so she shook her head, bit her lips, and said hesitantly, "Father didn't say anything, but Chan'er felt that Daddy knew everything in his heart. Just now, were we too Pretending to be smart?"
"He knows everything? How do you know?"
After hearing this, Second Aunt was startled and asked hastily.
"Chan'er guessed it! Mom, talk about everything, Chan'er is leaving first!"
However, Zhu Zichan changed from his lively and cheerful appearance during the day, and said these few words with some serious thoughts, and retreated out regardless of whether Second Aunt agreed or not.
The second aunt was still contemplating, she paced the room while thinking, and after a while, she said, "Hmph, so what if your father knows? Anyway, your father never liked that little bitch, what happened today A lot of trouble, isn't it all caused by her? Your father, maybe he is blaming her in his heart. Since he didn't expose our lie just now, it proves that his heart is still towards us, Chan'er, you Say it?"
Looking back, is there anyone else in the house?
"Chan'er? Chan'er!..."
The second aunt stretched her neck and cried.
"Mother, I just saw that Chan'er went back to her room. Do you have something to do with her? The daughter goes and calls her."
At this time, Zhu Ziqi opened the door and came in, seeing this, said hastily.
"Oh, no, you're here just in time! Talk to your bridesmaid."
The second aunt pulled Zhu Ziqi into the door, stretched her neck to look around, then closed the door, went to the middle hall and sat down.
"Mom, what are you going to say?"
Seeing her mother's serious expression, Zhu Ziqi couldn't help asking.
"Qi'er, mother always has an ominous premonition today. Tell me, that little bitch deliberately made such a fuss at the dinner party. What is her purpose? How did she know that we tampered with that kite? Things are too strange!"
"Mother, do you suspect that someone around you has leaked the news?"
Zhu Ziqi pondered for a moment, then raised his head and asked.
"Hmph, if I find out, I won't let you down lightly!"
Second Aunt suddenly patted the Eight Immortals Table beside her, stood up and shouted.
"mother!"
Zhu Ziqi's body trembled involuntarily when she was shocked, and cried out in panic.
"Be careful these few days, pay attention to the actions of the people around you, and report to your mother if you find anything. I didn't expect that there would be a foodie around me. Humph, if I find out, she will die!"
Looking at her daughter, Second Aunt said with a fierce look on her face.
"Yes, mother, my daughter will definitely go all out to help mother find that person! But, mother, there is no way to go on like this. Today, my people actually saw that King Ji went to Dongli Garden to look for that bitch. If King Ji Sure enough, if we want to touch her, we will be in trouble!"
Zhu Ziqi rolled her eyes a few times, and said in a slightly aggrieved voice.
"Sure enough?"
When the second aunt heard this, her expression was also concentrated, and she asked.
"Ok!"
Zhu Ziqi pouted and nodded.
"So, what Qi'er said is right! Mother will think of a way, and when she finds out that traitor, she will end up with that little bitch!"
Second Aunt snorted coldly and said slowly.
"Mom! Thank you, Mom!"
After hearing this, Zhu Ziqi instantly became happy, and gave her mother a blessing.
"Go down."
Rubbing her forehead, Second Aunt said in a tired voice.
Seeing this, Zhu Ziqi didn't dare to speak any more, and retreated slowly.
*
The night became darker, and the Hou Mansion, which had been bustling all day, gradually disappeared into the night, and the hustle and bustle of the day was also removed, and it was as quiet as if it had fallen asleep.
At this time, there was a slight noise in Dongli Garden, and then, a figure quietly jumped up to the corner of the wall and rushed towards Guihua Garden where Second Aunt lived.
There was no sound in the Guihua Garden, only the rustling of the leaves as the wind blows through them. Everyone fell into a deep sleep, even the night watchman leaned against the porch pillar with a lantern in his hand and dozed off.
The black shadow flew all the way over the eaves and walls, and quickly passed by the night watchman. The man felt a gust of cool wind blowing against his face, and opened his eyes suddenly, but saw a black shadow flying past in front of him. If you look carefully, you can't see anything.
He rubbed his eyes and looked around again, but he didn't see anything, so he said to himself: "Could it be my eyesight?"
After speaking, he leaned against the pillar and went to sleep again.
The black shadow went all the way unimpeded, and soon arrived at a room in the backyard of Guihuayuan. After looking around, he was sure that there was no one there, so the man stretched out his hand and opened the door.
