Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

"Ah, my mother-in-law!"

The lady exclaimed and slapped her thigh hard, "What do you think, that girl looks familiar to me, isn't it? No wonder I always feel that something is wrong with her expression. Both my parents are there." , How can a girl not worry!"

As he said that, he slapped himself in the mouth again, "Look at my mouth! The mouth in my family always says that sooner or later, my mouth will either kill me or kill others!"

Madam's voice was so loud that she didn't hide it at all. When she suddenly said "My mother-in-law", Shen Luoxin's figure swayed slightly. She probably felt that she was going to be avoided like a snake and scorpion again, so she might as well Snake, maybe in the eyes of the other party, he is just a dirty thing... Just as he was about to pull Ji Wuyan away, he saw the madam looking so annoyed. She was slightly startled and couldn't help but look up.

The lady had already walked over here in a few steps. She looked a little embarrassed because of the "unpleasantness" she had experienced before. She rubbed her hands and said hello, "Is she the eldest daughter of the Shen family?"

Shen Luoxin was silent and looked at the other party. She was a brightly dressed lady. She was over thirty years old. She was a little taller than the average woman. She had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and she looked straight and upright. There was no disgust in his eyes for his past temperament. Shen Luoxin grabbed Ji Wuyan's arm. This shop belonged to Shangguan Chu. After what happened with the handkerchief, she really didn't want to cause any more trouble to Shangguan Chu, so she grabbed Ji Wuyan's arm. Look sideways at her for advice.

Ji Wuyan nodded with a smile, and Shen Luoxin looked at the opposite side, bowed slightly, and said, "It's... the little girl Shen Luoxin."

"Ah, it really is you!" The lady kept rubbing her hands and smiling, her eyes were filled with wrinkles from the exertion, and every wrinkle seemed to be an annoyance she regretted. She smiled "hehe" and comforted, "This... girl, that's it! I was just talking nonsense... ah, it's not talking nonsense, just... it's true that someone in Dali Temple was infected with the epidemic, But everything else is just like what this girl said, just hearsay! I asked for a long time, and my family said they didn’t know, so don’t be nervous, it’s not necessarily true. There are so many people in Dali Temple, how can it be like that? What a coincidence, don’t you think?”

The posture that was almost quarreling just now has now become almost self-proclaimed as "aunt".

The extremely competitive lady is really unexpected.

Since Ji Wuyan knew that it was indeed Xu Siniang who contracted the epidemic, then the rumor that the imperial censor knelt down to beg You Feng was probably true. The lady had sworn to prove her innocence just now, but now in order to comfort a little girl, she no longer wanted this "innocence".

Ji Wuyan frowned and smiled softly. She felt that if she said something out loud, she could take it back. The lady in front of her would definitely take it back without saying a word.

He is a rare and gentle person. It seems that everything is not unfavorable today. In the deep dark night, if you can meet a warm person, it is indeed an extremely lucky thing. She smiled and echoed, "Did you see, what did I just say to you? We can't scare ourselves without real evidence. You scared yourself so much that you turned pale, didn't think about food and drink, and couldn't sleep at night. Xu Siniang came out to see you. With your appearance, don't you blame me for not taking good care of you?"

"Yes, yes!" The lady agreed, "My lord has been an official in the court for many years. He has some friendship with Lord Shen or Lord Nayou. If there is anything, he must have known about it a long time ago. Now Since you say you don't know, then it's obvious that that person is just an unknown person, maybe he's still a prisoner in the prison, right?" Even though he knew that the other party's persuasion was more important, Shen Luoxin, who was worried in his heart, still said it, but it didn't matter. A beautiful, pale smile, "Juniors understand, thank you madam for your comfort."

But the lady waved her hand cheerfully, "Hey! It doesn't matter. There is a saying that says this. Meeting means being destined. Friends come from far away. We don't know each other without fighting. Now we meet in this shop, and We almost had a bit of a quarrel, and we are considered friends who met by chance, so there is no need to be polite. Your aunt and I don't like being polite to each other, right?" As he said that, he turned around and asked his friends around him.

The other lady was more restrained and her expression was more indifferent. She just nodded and said, "It's getting late, we should go back."

"Oh! That's right!" The generous lady seemed to have woken up from a dream, and then turned to look at a piece of cloth on the table behind her. She turned to say goodbye to Shen Luoxin with some embarrassment, "Girl, listen to your aunt and take good care of yourself. , don’t think too much about other things. Okay?" As he said that, he was about to take a step forward when he was gently pulled by his friend.

Shen Luoxin saw this in his eyes, smiled while being slightly stunned, and nodded, "Thank you, Madam, for your concern. Madam, please go slowly." As he said that, he stepped aside and cleared the way to leave. The lady hesitated to speak, but in the end she just nodded. Although she couldn't bear it, she didn't say anything and pulled the other lady away. When she was going out, the reserved lady spoke, but she scolded her friend next to her in a low voice, "You said you, I told you that it was the Shen family girl who didn't ask you to go up and talk to her. It's better for you to talk to her. It’s not over yet, what if the person infected with the epidemic is really Xu Siniang?”

The voice was subdued, but not too low. Everyone in the shop heard it, and the waiter, who was leisurely rolling up his sleeves, couldn't help but move back.

But the lady just now shouted, "What if it's Xu Siniang? She hasn't left Dali Temple since the autopsy was done. Why, this disease can be transmitted through the air? If so, that's fine. It's the same for everyone on the left and right. It can be passed on to other girls, and it can be passed on to you and me. Besides... although Dali Temple is closed, the Qin Imperial Physician still can't come and go freely, and there are also some spies of the courtiers. What do you think those guards are? Can you stop me? In this way, our respective husbands who are officials in the court are the most dangerous. Otherwise, if you don't let your husband go back, forget it!"

"You!" The other party choked, but he also understood his friend's temperament. He was really angry and funny. "You always have a point. I am doing it for your own good. Let me remind you, you gave me a good scolding."

"I'm not scolding you, it's just that this girl is quite pitiful. Her parents are in such a dangerous place, so let's not rub salt into her... I'm just saying some comforting words, it won't be a problem."

"Yes, yes... you are always right. Having said that, I haven't finished my clothes yet. Anyway, I'm not the one who won't have new clothes to wear in a few days..."

The conversation gradually faded away, and the shopkeeper went in for a long time before he came out slowly with tea.
