Chapter 104: Aunt Xu rescues Luo Junhe for a different reason
She even told Ji Yuntang where the box where she hid her jewelry was, that Liu Linlang was having affairs with several men at the same time, that she had slept with someone two years ago, and a series of other private matters.
Ji Yuntang memorized the important information one by one in her mind like she was listening to gossip. Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind and she thought of something. She asked: "How did you save His Highness the Night King in the palace eighteen years ago?"
After these words were spoken, Nanny Xu was stunned for a few seconds, and a trace of confusion flashed in her turbid eyes.
She seemed to be thinking carefully, but after a while she started to struggle with her head in her hands.
"My head hurts so much, I don't know, I can't remember anything..."
Ji Yuntang narrowed his eyes slightly and took a breath, realizing that there might be another hidden story behind this matter.
Eighteen years ago, Luo Junhe had just turned four years old. Although it was a long time ago, it was impossible for Aunt Xu to not remember even the details of the rescue.
Furthermore, she always mentioned that she was Luo Junhe's savior. Logically speaking, it was impossible for her to forget such an important thing.
But her current reaction told her that she knew nothing about saving people.
When Ji Yuntang thought of this, he knocked Aunt Xu unconscious with a single blow and tied her up with a rope.
She wanted to get the information she wanted and then kill Aunt Xu with a knife.
But now it seems that this old thing can live a few more days.
Ji Yuntang turned around and walked out, locking the door of the woodshed again, and then instructed the two people at the door: "Keep an eye on her, just give her a meal every day, don't let her starve to death."
The two servants looked pale and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, Princess, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Madam Xu."
Ji Yuntang returned to Xiyuan and met Luo Junhe. She told Luo Junhe about Nanny Xu's debt and how she used the palace's money to buy houses and shops outside.
Upon hearing this, Luo Junhe's face turned ashen and as cold as if covered with ice.
"I trusted her so much and promised to take care of her until the end of her life. I never thought she would do so many tricks behind my back."
Luo Junhe originally thought that Nanny Xu's embezzlement of the palace's money, her insubordination, and insulting Ji Yuntang were already the worst that could happen.
Unexpectedly, even more explosive things are yet to come.
She borrowed money in his name, but in the end she couldn't pay it back, and had to steal Ji Yuntang's money to pay it back.
The gold in Ji Yuntang's private vault, including the rewards from the Queen Mother and the silver she earned from selling goods, were all earned by her own ability. Logically speaking, they did not belong to the Night Palace at all. They were her personal property.
However, Nanny Xu actually wanted to steal Ji Yuntang's hard-earned money to pay off his debts. How could such a good thing happen in the world?
Luo Junhe gritted his teeth, feeling extremely angry, "I have really raised an ungrateful wolf over the years."
Ji Yuntang turned around and poured him a glass of water, and patted his back gently to help Luo Junhe calm down.
"Ahe, calm down first. I have something else I want to ask you."
The girl's voice was like spring rain that moistened everything, instantly extinguishing the fire in Luo Junhe's heart. He took a sip of water from the teacup, and then said softly: "Atang, what do you want to know?"
"It's about Madam Xu saving you." Ji Yuntang did not hide it from him, "I heard you say before that before you fell into the water when you were four years old, Madam Xu was working in the palace?"
"It is true. I remember it clearly. It was a winter eighteen years ago. It snowed a lot and the weather was unusually cold. After class that day, my teacher kept me in the school to review my lessons. But suddenly, Nanny Sun, who was beside my mother, came over and told me that my mother was waiting for me in the back garden and asked me to go over. I didn't think much about it and went with her."
"It snowed heavily that day, and there was no one in the back garden. When I followed Nanny Sun to the back garden, I couldn't see my mother anywhere. Just then, a palace maid came and said that Weiyang Palace had been robbed and my mother had lost a very important bracelet. Nanny Sun left me in the back garden without saying a word and left."
Ji Yuntang asked, "Then what?"
Luo Junhe was lost in thought and said slowly, "Madame Sun left, and my mother wasn't there either. I naturally didn't want to wait foolishly in the back garden. At that time, I was thinking that I hadn't finished the homework assigned by the teacher, so I planned to go back and continue doing it, and then go to Weiyang Palace to find my mother and explain the reason to her later."
"But when I walked to the dragon pond, I suddenly felt my feet slipping, and then I fell into the dragon pond uncontrollably."
"The water in winter is freezing cold. Once I fell in, I felt like I was falling into a deep pool. My body kept falling. I struggled desperately, trying to swim upstream but I couldn't. I wanted to call for help but I couldn't even open my mouth. Just when I felt that I was going to die, there was a sudden loud "splash" in the water. I saw a blurry figure in nanny's clothes swimming towards me, and then I fainted."
"When I woke up, it was already two days later. I had already returned to my bedroom. I heard from the palace servants that it was Nanny Xu who brought me back from the back garden."
Ji Yuntang narrowed her eyes slightly. She always felt that this matter was a little strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange.
"Ah He, then how can you be sure that the person who saved you was Aunt Xu?"
It is normal to say that since Nanny Xu sent Luo Junhe back, she would be considered his savior.
But there was no one in the back garden at the time, so who could prove that it was definitely her who jumped into the water to save people?
Ji Yuntang always felt that given Aunt Xu's character, she would not be able to do such a thing as sacrificing herself to save others.
After listening to Ji Yuntang's words, Luo Junhe carefully recalled the details of what happened.
This thought actually gave him some important clues.
"I vaguely remember that when I was underwater, out of my survival instinct, I kept trying to grab a life-saving straw. When the nanny swam to my side, I accidentally grabbed a sachet from her waist. When I woke up, the sachet was tightly held in my hand."
"An Qi, who served me, also said that when Aunt Xu brought me back, I was soaked and had a high fever. They wanted to change my clothes, but no matter how they twisted my hands, I held the sachet tightly and never let go."
"After I got better, I sent someone to question Aunt Xu. She admitted that she was the one who saved me by jumping into the water. I also asked Aunt Xu indirectly whether she had lost a sachet. She admitted that she had indeed lost a very important sachet on the day she saved me. It was a reward from the Queen Mother."
