Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 59
Du Juan brought water in from the outside with the coarse envoy.

Nan Surou asked Du Juan to put down the water and let her go out to guard the gate.

Nan Surou sat on the soft couch, took off her shoes and socks, and dipped her jade feet into the hot water full of crimson petals.

Yun Rong was serving at the side, as if thinking of something, said: "Miss, the servant girl remembered something, a girl came to look for you this morning, she claimed to be the cousin of the Duke's mansion, her surname is Jiang..."

"Jiang?" Nan Surou paused for a moment, and immediately thought that the person must be Jiang Yuemei, because only Jiang Yuemei's surname was Jiang among the cousins ​​of Duke Wei's family. Come to your door, why?
Yunrong nodded and continued: "Miss, the girl said that she will visit again tomorrow. In the past few days, the servant girl has been strictly guarding the yard and has not attended various occasions with the lady. I don't know that girl. The servant girl I see that she has a very good attitude and has no malicious intentions."

The attitude is very good, and there is no malice... Is this still Jiang Yuemei?

Nan Surou was a little confused, could it be that something happened when Jiang Yuemei went to Yuege today?
Seeing Nan Surou's hesitant expression, Yun Rong couldn't help whispering: "Miss, what's wrong with this matter?"

Nan Surou sneered: "There are too many ignorant children in this family. They always don't understand their own weight. They like to do some stupid things. They don't reflect on themselves, and they are afraid of losing the favor of the elders. After losing the favor of the elders, They do stupid things in desperation, and if they don't give it a good beating, they'll kick their noses in the face."

Things done out of desperation or stupidity are often very similar.

Hearing this sentence, Yunrong's heart skipped a beat, and she lowered her voice again: "Miss, what happened to you when you came back?"

Nan Surou rolled her eyes and said, "It's meaningless even if you understand it, just let me arrange it."

"So, what's your plan next, Miss?" Yun Rong perked up.

Nan Surou raised the corners of her lips, and murmured, "If you want to spread your wings and fly high, you have to start with falling, just wait and see."

Yun Rong had been listening intently to Nan Surou's words, and when she heard this sentence, she was startled and couldn't help blurting out: "Miss, Mrs. Wei is not easy to deal with."

"Don't worry, even if she doesn't trouble me, she will allow other children to trouble me. I will always find a way." Nan Surou softened her voice and comforted Yunrong.

Yun Rong frowned and said worriedly: "Miss, Mrs. Wei Guo is not easy to deal with."

Nan Surou shook her head, "She has been lacking a good helper. What I did before has aroused her love for talents. As long as I don't do too much to her two children, she won't treat her badly. What about me, the collateral ones, hmph, especially those from Duke Wei's lineage, the more you punish them to death, the happier she will be..."

Yun Rong nodded, but said again: "I'm sorry, miss, Yun Rong is useless, she can't help you solve your problems."

"It doesn't matter, people have to grow up. You have done a good job. One day, we will let these blind people suffer the consequences." Nan Surou's voice was completely out of this age.

A few hours later, the sun was setting.

Nan Qiansong was scared by Nan Surou, and did not come to make trouble again.

And Nan Xiyuan, who lived under the same roof with Nan Surou, was called out of the mansion by Mrs. Wei Guo to have a banquet, but she didn't bother Nan Surou.

Although the morning is full of turmoil, the dinner time is still very pleasant.

Although it was dinner time, the courtyard of Huichunyuan was sparsely populated and looked peaceful.

The night air exudes a natural atmosphere, and the wind contains the vitality of night objects.

Nan Xiyuan was not in Huachunyuan, she was very depressed, Nan Surou sent Du Juan away, and only left Yunrong to have dinner together.

Suddenly, I heard a slight splashing sound from the pond behind Huichun Courtyard.

The sound didn't make Yun Rong feel that much, but Nan Surou seemed to wake up suddenly, and jumped up from the chair.

Yun Rong focused her gaze on Nan Surou with an indescribable gaze, she couldn't help but also stood up and asked, "Miss, what's the matter?"

Yunrong's tone was like that erratic curl of cigarettes.

Nan Surou was about to say something when she heard the voice from the other side of the lotus pond getting louder. Although it was a little louder than before, if you don't pay attention, you still can't hear it.

This kind of voice was a nightmare that Nan Surou could not get rid of in her previous life. How many times she heard such a voice, it meant that someone died. Everything happened in the huge lotus pond of Duke Wei's mansion. Under the crisp lotus leaves, there are countless sins.

Nan Surou suddenly held Yunrong's hand, and said in a serious low voice, "Yunrong, listen..."

"Miss?" Yunrong frowned and said, "This voice often occurs during the day recently, and it sounds normal." Immediately, Yunrong thought of something again, with a look of horror on her face, she tremblingly said: " By the way, miss, the servant girl almost forgot. After hearing this voice a few days ago, someone reported this morning that it was a girl named Caiye from Shuyunyuan who was walking at night a few days ago. I accidentally slipped into the lotus pond and drowned, could it be..."

Nan Surou hurriedly said: "I'll go and have a look. If I want to go out later, you stay here and don't move around. If someone comes over, just say I'm resting and don't let anyone serve you."

Before Yun Rong could respond, Nan Surou hurried to the window near the lotus pond, opened a gap, and looked through the prestige.

I saw a large group of lotus leaves spreading darkly on the lotus pond in the twilight. The number of lotus leaves is extremely large, swaying with the wind, and there are no lights and candles around, so the visibility is low.

Nan Surou followed the voice, and with great difficulty, she saw a few figures with the figure of a rough woman moving, as if they were fiddled with under a clump of lotus leaves. There was a commotion underneath, and she didn't know what they were doing. .

The sound of "哗啦啦" seemed to be gradually getting louder.

Nan Surou put down the window, turned around and said to Yunrong: "Yunrong, stay here, don't let people know that I'm out, I'll come as soon as I go."

Yun Rong knew that her young lady had always been a thoughtful person, although she was very worried, she still didn't stop her, and said: "Miss, you must be more careful."

Nan Surou knew what she was about to face, but she didn't say anything to Yun Rong. Some things are better buried in her heart.

Nan Surou didn't say anything else, she took off the hairpin ring and coat on her body, then blew out the lamps and candles in the room, opened the window quietly, and crawled out through the gap in the window.

Yun Rong watched from the side, extremely surprised in her heart, but she covered her mouth and didn't cry out.
