Chapter 147 What Are You Suspecting?

"I always feel that Ajiao and I are getting closer, but I see, you treat her better." Jing Duo sighed.

This sentence obviously touched Jing Qin's bad head. He raised his hand and threw the pen in his hand into the brush washer, "I'm not for anyone! I just don't like others to plot against me, whether it's the lotus room, It’s still Ershui, or everyone else is the same.”

Jing Duo looked at his solemn face for a moment, then changed the topic, "However, it took a lot of work to win over this lotus girl. She is still useful, and now I have to coax her."

Jing Qin pursed his lips and said nothing, Jing Duo glanced at him, did not continue to talk about Lianfang, but changed the subject, "The person you sent to Huiyang earlier came back, I already asked, and said yes Jiao had an emergency when she was 11 years old, and then she was taken by her aunt to Zhuangzi to recuperate. Even when they returned to Feng’an, they went directly from Zhuangzi. There was no one in the family, and my aunt had that temper again. Of course, she has the final say on everything she does."

Jing Qin's eyes were as dark as the sea of ​​night, "Then let them continue to investigate Zhuangzi."

"Investigate what?" Jing Duo frowned, "What exactly do you want them to investigate? Or, what are you suspecting?"

Jing Qin couldn't answer, the feeling was subtle, doubtful, but mixed with his own hope that he didn't dare to say, he couldn't tell what he wanted to find out.Is it looking forward to finding out, or nothing can be found out.

Two days later, the matter of someone checking Jingyue from Huiyang spread to Mrs. Zhao's mouth through Mrs. Zhao's eyes and ears. When Xu Jiao took Banlan to the main courtyard, Mrs. Zhao was discussing the matter with Qinniang. Things, looking a little tired.

"What's wrong with mother? She looks a little tired." Xu Jiao asked with concern.

"It's just that I didn't rest well last night. It's okay." Mrs. Zhao will not tell her the reason.

"Mother should take care of her body more."

Mrs. Zhao glanced at her, "Tell me something?"

Xu Jiao smiled and sat next to her, "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from my mother. Didn't I mention it to my mother a few days ago? I want to live in the Zhuangzi of Tangquan Mountain for a few days, and quietly drink the water of the mallard along the way." Learn it, so as not to encounter such a thing as at the return to the palace banquet again."

"When do you want to go?" Mrs. Zhao nodded and responded.

"If you can, do it as soon as possible! After a while, I might be in autumn. If I learn quickly, I might be able to come back in a few days."

"Take Qiaoqiao with you when you go. Your aunt was also very enthusiastic when she mentioned this last time. She thought that she would not be overwhelmed by her skills. Let Qiaoqiao learn Fushui with you. The two of you have a good time together. companion."

"Okay, I'll send someone to deliver the letter to the Zhou Mansion." Xu Jiao stood up happily.

"Wait!" Mrs. Zhao stopped her, "When you go back to Zhuangzi, it's enough to take Hongying and Xuexue to serve you? Leave Banlan to me, I have some things to do , not enough manpower.”

Banlan was slightly startled, even Xu Jiao was also a little surprised, she glanced at Banlan, and she agreed, "My person is naturally mother's, so mother can use it as she wants! Banlan, you have a few days Go back to your mother and wait for her orders!"

"Yes." Banlan knelt and answered, when Xu Jiao left, she stayed behind, and Madam Zhao called her by her side, and talked for a while.

Xu Jiao and Zhou Qiao quickly reached a consensus, and on the second day they went out of Feng'an City together, heading for Mrs. Zhao's village in Tangquan Mountain.Accompanying them was a team of guards, in addition to the maidservant who served them personally.As for Zhuang Zishang, he had already sent someone to inform him.

In the early morning, Xu Jiao had just left, and in the afternoon, Ban Lan arrived at Ximoju with a stack of manuscripts.

Jing Qin just came back from the Yamen, Ban Lan saw him and knelt down to salute, "I met Mr. Erlang."

Jing Qin nodded lightly, and his eyes fell on the stack of manuscripts she held in her hand, "Is it your wife's?"

"Yes! Although tomorrow is the time to hand in the homework, the lady set off for Tangquan Mountain today. She had already completed the homework earlier this time. Before leaving, she specially asked the maid to bring it to the gentleman, and asked the maid to bring it to you. In order to tell you, Zidai, she will not be lazy on Tangquan Mountain, she will definitely study hard, and will hand in her homework to him for review when she comes back."

Jing Qin nodded, among other things, as a student, Xu Jiao's consciousness is really good.And as a gentleman, no one would dislike such a student.

Jing Qin took the stack of manuscripts, flipped through them, and said, "Why didn't you go to Tangquan Mountain with you? Did you stay here to arrange Mingyue Residence for Ajiao? It seems that she trusts you very much! "

Ban Lan, who was waiting by the side with her hands tied, did not expect that Jing Qin would suddenly ask her, not about the lady, but about her, her heart jumped wildly, and she suppressed the panic in her heart, and replied, "It's not really a question. , This time it was Madam who left the servant girl behind, so Madam did not bring the maidservant."

"Oh?" Jing Qin raised his eyebrows, raised his eyes from behind the manuscript, and looked at Banlan, his peach blossom eyes were full of interest, and the ends of his eyes were slightly raised, as if with affection, "It seems that you still like Auntie very much." It's important not only to be pretty, but also to be well-behaved, and to be capable..."

The man's voice was deep and mellow, and he said words of praise, which slowly slid past his ears, as if filled with endless charm, which made Banlan's face suddenly hot, and she blushed, "I don't dare to pretend to be capable, my maidservant. Maybe it's just because the servant girl is an old man brought by Madam from Huiyang, and she has been serving Madam since she was a child, so she took advantage of it!"

"So you came from Huiyang with your aunt! So, you have been serving my aunt all the time?" Seeing Ban Lan nodding, Jing Qin curled his lips and said in a soft voice, "Then you must know a lot Interesting stories about A-Jiao’s childhood, right? There’s nothing wrong with you, so why not tell me about it. I’m really curious, what was A-Jiao’s childhood like, and how is it different from now?”

Ban Lan's smile suddenly froze on the lips because of Jing Qin's series of questions, and the blood on his face drained little by little, becoming a little pale.

"What's wrong?" Jing Qin asked with concern.

Ban Lan hastily broke into a smile and said, "When I was in Huiyang, the lady... the lady was not in good health, she rarely left the house, and the servant girl rarely saw her, so she really didn't know her very well. What's more...when the lady was young, The servant girl is still young."

"That's right, it's because I didn't think carefully enough." Jing Qin sighed with a smile.

"The gentleman is also concerned about the lady. The maid suddenly remembered that she still has some things to do, so she won't stay any longer." Banlan said, curtsying to Jingqin.

Jing Qin waved his hand and smiled softly, "Go!"

Ban Lan turned and left.

Jing Qin looked at her back, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was slowly pursed.

"It seems that the effect of your beauty trick is still good, but just one sentence made this little girl change color. I didn't expect that there is really a problem with it. You really have it, so you can see it." The door opened lightly, Jing Duo whistled and strode out.
