Chapter 137
The front of Ding'anhou's mansion was as calm as usual, except for the pedestrians coming and going and the servants coming in and out, there were no guests, and there was no shopkeeper who came to claim the account and deliver the goods.

Not long after noon, a man who looked like a servant slipped in from the side door.He was stronger than the average boy, he showed his waist card, lowered his head all the way, and just nodded when he saw people, without speaking, and went straight into Ninghui Hall.

"Madam, Miss San, I have already done what needs to be done." The servant who spoke was named Duan Jin, who was a competent person brought by Lin from her natal family.

"No one noticed, right?" Lin's tone was calm and authentic.

"She was wandering around the Yang Mansion, she walked into the alley by herself, she bumped into it by herself, no wonder someone." Duan Jin said.

"Don't touch her yet, take her to the Zhuangzi outside the city while it's dark. I plan to let her embroider a picture of a hundred flowers competing for beauty first, and then marry her." Lin's tone was not the slightest bit fluctuation.

Xu Jialan chuckled, and the gloom of the past few days finally cleared away: "If you touch her, it won't do any good to marry her. You go back first, and when the matter is settled, Madam will reward you generously."

"Yes, the villain is resigning." Duan Jin never dragged his feet in his affairs, and left the house without attracting attention.

"My mother told me not to rush and wait patiently. I was still angry. Now it seems that my mother is far-sighted." Xu Jialan said sincerely.

Lin smiled and said: "She always wants to visit Yang's house, so I will fulfill her. In the past two days, I will settle the marriage between her and Yang Zhongtian, and wait for her to take you to the embroidery at the palace gate to embroider." Alright, blindfold her, tie her feet, stuff her into the sedan chair, and let her enter Yang's house to have a good look."

"Yeah, if you arrest her for a few days, she won't be able to investigate, and she can let me use her skillful hand. Our family also has face in front of the queen, and my embroidery skills are not bad. Her embroidery will definitely make it to the final round." Xu Jialan laughed.

The third round of embroidery must be presented to Queen Wu, and the final result will be decided by Queen Wu.Even if he is not selected in the end, he can still meet Queen Wu. This is a great opportunity to win her joy.

Lin said: "Jialan, sometimes your energy is a bit like when I was young, but the city is too shallow. If you ask her for embroidery, she will take what she said to that girl Jiaxing I came to prevaricate you, so I went to inform you. She had no choice but to arrest her. Someone kidnapped her because of the reputation of Jinxiufang. If she wanted to blame her, she didn't know that Mu Xiuyu was reminded by Lin. Not only that , she has to be rescued by us, we have to cover it for her, and she has to be grateful to us."

"Let's first tell the servants that she was ill and went to be raised in Zhuangzi. When she comes back, if she believes that she was kidnapped by the gangsters and rescued by us, it will be fine. If she doesn't believe it, she must be held accountable. Let her choose. Either make a fuss about her being kidnapped by gangsters and ruin her reputation, or accept our statement." Xu Jialan thought.

"Yes, it is to make her have to choose. Jialan, you are my good daughter if you can think like this. You have to remember, don't compete with someone like Xu Jiatong for a moment, and when she is complacent, put her She kicked into the abyss." Lin said.

"At night, the servants found out that she hadn't returned home, so I released the news that she was going to the village to recuperate." Xu Jialan resigned and started to make arrangements.

Lin looked at the back of leaving, imagining the tragic situation of Xu Jiatong being detained in the firewood room at this moment.

After all, it is from a small place that is not on the table, and I have never seen the world, so I give it a little sweetness, just like a bee that smells the smell of honey and flies towards it.

Xu Jiatong would not completely trust her and Xu Jialan, she would go to the Yang Mansion to investigate, as she had expected, she would naturally arrange it.

No matter how smart and astute Xu Jiatong is, there is only one person, and she has many people who can help her get things done.

There was a smell of dry firewood and Saturn seeds in the firewood room. There were piles of firewood piled up in the back, which should have been piled up for a long time, and they were so dry that there was no moisture left.

Xu Jiatong woke up faintly, the afterglow of the setting sun shone through the broken and yellowed window paper, making her eyes hurt.She opened her eyes and wanted to sit up, but found that her whole body was weak and sore, and her hands and feet were tied up with a hemp rope as thick as her little finger.

The more you get to such a place, the more you have to calm down. In such a situation, others might be overwhelmed by panic, but Xu Jiatong would not.

It's because in the past ten years, whenever she was punished by Mrs. Zheng, she would have to be locked up in a similar room for one night. At that time, her hands and feet were not tied with ropes.

Xu Jiatong took a deep breath, and began to use the pranayama method Cao taught her to recover quietly. Gradually, the feeling of fatigue in her body disappeared, and her hands and feet became warmer.

Looking at the light from the window, thinking about how long she had been here, and listening to the sounds around her, Xu Jiatong felt that this place was not far from the place where she was stunned, and that she had not been here for a long time. The cries of hawkers on the street can still be heard faintly.

This place should be very close to that alley. She didn't have a plan to come here, and the people around her didn't know about it. It's impossible that someone got the news and waited for her on purpose.

"That's not right, I've been here twice, maybe I've been targeted." Xu Jiatong said to himself weakly.

Xu Jiatong wanted to figure out first whether the robbing of her was for money, or something else.

If she robbed her wealth, she did not reveal her wealth, and the person who robbed her would not be a big shot, presumably because life was hard to live on, and she made up a temporary idea.In this case, it will be easy to solve.

If it's the latter, it must be related to Lin and Xu Jialan, so it will be troublesome.

For now, if she doesn't return all night, she will be made a fuss by the National People's Congress.

"Come on, come on! Who brought me here, come out!" Xu Jiatong shouted, her throat was dry and her voice was very small.

"What are you arguing about, what are you arguing about, you're still messing around here." A tall black figure emerged from the window paper, and it was Duan Jin who had rushed back.

Xu Jiatong sat up on the ground, leaning against the pile of firewood. Even though he was covered in dust, he couldn't lose his momentum at this moment.

"You are Xu Jiatong? That Xu Jiatong from Jinxiufang?" Duan Jin raised his head, his nostrils turned up, and said arrogantly.

"You know me?" Xu Jiatong was shocked by him, but calmed down quickly.

"The closed disciple of the Duan family in Jinxiufang, I just heard about you, so I tied you here. I won't talk nonsense to you, here is a picture of a hundred flowers competing for beauty, and I will prepare the loom, embroidery needle and thread for you. Once you're done, I'll let you go." Duan Jintoe said proudly.

Seeing his deliberately exaggerated movements and expressions, Xu Jiatong had confidence in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.

"Big brother, please forgive me. I will do what you say. Please hold your hand high and don't hurt my life." Xu Jiatong begged for mercy, looked around, "It's just... just embroidered here?"
