Exquisite ingenuity

Chapter 17
Seeing that Mrs. Wu didn't blame her, Zhao Jinyun became more courageous: "Yes."

Wu smiled kindly: "You child, obviously saving your mother will not be happy for you to marry Saburo of the Shi family. Why do you still beg the second aunt? Where are you going to send the second aunt?"

Her voice was soft, but what she said made Zhao Jinyi and Zhao Jinyun stunned at the same time.

Zhao Jinyun's face was scorching hot.

She glanced at Zhao Jinyi with panic.

Zhao Jinyi had never heard A Niang say such a thing, and his mind was spinning rapidly, wanting to say something for Zhao Jinyun.

Wu's eyes suddenly turned to Zhao Jinyi, her voice was still soft, and her words were merciless: "And you, if you don't want to see Cousin Yi, you can tell Aniang clearly. Come on Croton. Where are you taking the face of the Zhao family? Uncle and your cousin are open-minded and don’t care about you, but you don’t know how to reflect. I think you have been a little crazy recently. You might as well copy it in the room "Diamond Sutra" half a month."

This is the foot to ban Zhao Jinyi.

A Niang has always loved her, and she has always been well-behaved. Zhao Jinyi, who has never been restrained before, had a fever in his head and blurted out: "The third sister and the Shi family Saburo admire each other, why not? A Niang and Dad, at the beginning Didn't you come here as well?" She must fight for it, if she doesn't fight for it this time, her marriage with Ning Yong might be like the third sister and Shijia Saburo.

Wu's gaze sank.Her daughter has always been smart, how can she be confused on this matter.Could her second cousin, the second cousin, intervene in her third sister's marriage?
Zhao Jinyi still straightened his body, his small face was full of dissatisfaction.

Wu Shi seemed to see himself back then.

She turned her face away, and said in a calm voice, "Wuyi, take care of fourth girl, don't ask her to step out of this yard again in half a month."

Wu walked away in a huff.

Zhao Jinyun was stunned for a while, then suddenly chased after him: "Second Aunt!"

Zhao Jinyi stood there in a daze, watching Zhao Jinyun chase A Niang out of the yard.

Mei Ran and Ya Qing entered the door quietly.

There was no one else except Wuyi outside.If the two of them work together to capture Wu Yi and let the girl go out, it is not impossible.But the order given by the wife, they dare not make mistakes.Besides, I can go once, what about next time?Although my wife has a good temper, she has always been rewarded and punished.Ji Se, who served Miss Fourth before, was tricked by outsiders to ask her about Miss Fourth because of her greedy mouth, and she was sold out by his wife immediately.Ya Qing, who was loyal and honest, was bought back later.

It was the first time for Mei Ran to see the fourth girl being severely reprimanded by the second wife.

Seeing that the fourth girl has been standing without saying a word, she must be shocked!
Just as she was thinking, she suddenly saw Zhao Jinyi waving at her.

Mei Ran was taken aback for a moment, and hurried up.

Zhao Jinyi whispered in her ear: "When you get dinner later, look for an opportunity to meet Chang Chun and ask him to go to the Zheng family to find out what kind of demon this cousin of the eldest son of the Zheng family is going to be."

Mei Ran's eyes widened, and she didn't care at all that the girl was grounded.

She also whispered: "But Wuyi will definitely not let the slaves go out."

Zhao Jinyi said: "Auntie only said not to let me go out, not to let you go out. Besides, Auntie has always had Wuyi alone to serve her. If Wuyi stays with me, Auntie will have no one to take care of her." .”

The fourth girl is right.

Mei Ran nodded, expressing that it was spared.

In this room, Zhao Jinyi was racking his brains to fight wits and bravery with his mother-in-law, while in the other room, two guests in green official uniforms ushered in in front of the door of Zhao's house.

One of them looked quite familiar.

Guanshi Hu blinked his presbyopia, looked at it for a while, and suddenly realized: Isn't this the little craftsman who brought his second master back last night?Oh, this little craftsman is not a little craftsman, but a person in the government!The color of the official uniform he is wearing looks similar to the official rank of his second master.Sure enough, the two officials introduced themselves at the door.They are Song Langzhong and Zhu Yuanwailang from the Ministry of Industry.

It's really indescribable.Last night, the young man who was dressed in short brown and seemed to be full of strength, now changed into a well-tailored official uniform, and he suddenly became imposing.

While Guanshi Hu warmly welcomed the guests in, he regretted in his heart that he didn't listen to Miss Si's words last night and rewarded the official mercilessly.However, if it is rewarded, what should the official do if he thinks it is too little?This second master is really, why don't you mention something about yourself?However, this young official's face is rather serious. How long has it been since he moved to Kanglefang?
Manager Hu followed Song Jingxing closely with his concerned gaze.

Song Jingxing was so sticky that he couldn't bear it.

He returned Manager Hu's generous smile and asked, "Is Zhao Fenglang feeling better?"

Guanshi Hu hurriedly said: "Report to Doctor Song, thanks to Doctor Song, our second master is already much better."

However, Song Langzhong and Zhu Yuanwailang suddenly visited Zhao's house, why?

Manager Hu looked at the two empty-handed and business-like, and Monk Zhang Er was puzzled.

But Manager Hu didn't dare to ask, and still respectfully sent the two of them Song Jingxing to the second master's residence.

Song Jingxing had just stepped through the hanging flower gate, and when he lowered his head to walk around the extraordinarily lush bougainvillea, he suddenly remembered that Zhao Fenglang's daughter might be waiting on her father's bedside.

He suddenly hesitated, whether he should let Guan Hu inform him in advance, but the female relatives inside avoided them, and they went in.After all, it is not suitable for them to see the coquettishness of some daughters.

Just as this thought came up, he suddenly saw a person half lying on the couch in the corridor, and a person standing beside him shaking a fan.

The half-lying one is not Zhao Chengde.

There was no one beside him except a boy who was shaking a fan.It looked strange and deserted.

Manager Hu hurried over and said a few words to Zhao Chengde. Zhao Chengde was about to struggle to get up when Zhu Yuanwailang Zhu Zhiping, who was next to Song Jingxing, hurried over and said, "Zhao Fenglang doesn't need to get up. We are here this time because we have something to ask." Zhao Fenglang."

Although Zhao Chengde didn't show it on his face, he was suspicious in his heart.

Having said that, he hurriedly ordered Changle to move out the rose chair, and asked Manager Hu to serve tea quickly.

Zhu Zhiping and Song Jingxing did not refuse, they both sat down gracefully.

Zhao Chengde and Zhu Zhiping are about the same age and are old acquaintances.But in his heart, he felt that he was more familiar with Song Jingxing.After all, it was Song Jingxing's strong arms that carried him back to the Zhao family last night.The distance from Fangmen to Zhao's house was neither long nor short, and he asked Song Jingxing several times to let him go, but Song Jingxing always answered him firmly: no.It was at that moment that Zhao Chengde admired Song Jingxing very much.

He involuntarily glanced at Song Jingxing before looking at Zhu Zhiping: "I don't know what the two colleagues are here to ask? Zhao must know everything."

Zhu Zhiping wears the most popular beard in the capital of Lu Kingdom nowadays, and it is trimmed extraordinarily elegantly.Hearing the words, he stroked his beard unconsciously, and then said with a serious face: "Dare to ask Zhao Fenglang, did you notice any other strange noises when you were standing under the gate of Kanglefang last night?"

Zhao Chengde looked blank: "Strange noise?" Last night, he was thinking about whether Changle could buy the wonton back, so how could he notice any strange noise?Could it be that the door of the square was still like rotten wood before it collapsed, and it would make a creaking sound when it was blown by the wind?
But the square gate is made of solid bricks... Otherwise, he wouldn't have stood under the square gate and waited unconsciously.

Seeing Zhao Chengde's bewildered face, Zhu Zhiping stroked his beard and smiled suddenly: "I was ordered to come here today, and I saw that Zhao Fenglang was fine, and there was no sign when the gate of Kangle Fang collapsed. It collapsed according to the will of God."
