After the replacement marriage, I was forced to fight at home
Chapter 331: Several Families Are Happy
When Cai'er saw Mother Kong leaving and preparing to go to Prince Rui's Mansion, she stepped forward and handed a piece of soft green gauze bed curtain to Meng Wan.
Meng Wan nodded, "Okay, let's change to this, it looks really refreshing."
Cai'er responded crisply, moved the embroidery stool to the bedside and prepared to take down the crimson curtain that had been hung in the winter.
"Wait for Chuan'er to come back and be with you."
Cai'er smiled and said, "This is light, I can hang it up by myself. I don't know how the aunt of Song Zhu's family is doing. Sister Chuan'er went there early in the morning, why hasn't she come back yet? Second Madam, did she get hurt?"
Meng Wan walked forward and took the account that Cai'er had put down. "Who knows? The last time Zheng Er's wife came, she said that the land had improved since the beginning of spring. When she talked to Yongqing's family about the Prince Shen's Mansion, she was not as scared as before."
(In case you forget, Zheng Er is the son-in-law of Yongqing's eldest daughter and Meng Wan's companion.)
After saying this, he sighed slightly. If she fell and became stupid again, it would be even more difficult to know the secret between the old princess and Mrs. Hu. But if that happened, there was nothing he could do. If he couldn't find the old man from the old princess' time, he could only wait until Mrs. Hu was nailed to death and she would tell the secret herself.
Cai'er finished picking the fruits on this side, jumped off the stool and went to pick the fruits on the other side. "Second Madam, do you think the Second Miss can succeed in what she did today?"
"What do you say?"
"I think so. Brother Wu has never failed to succeed. Besides, there are arrangements made by Liu Zi."
"You also know about Liuzi's arrangements?" Meng Wan said with a smile.
"Well, you forgot that Liuzi came to look for Sister Chuan'er yesterday. I talked to him about it, and guess what, Brother Wu actually asked him to look for someone."
"Sixth son?" Meng Wan looked up. She had not heard Zhou Yu mention this. To be exact, Zhou Yu did not want her to worry about this matter. Zhou Yu's original words were, "Just wait and see the fun. Go to Junyue Residence later to comfort the princess to show your filial piety."
Meng Wan thought that with Zhou Yu's arrangements outside and Zhou Yinghan's plans inside, she really didn't need to worry too much.
"Yes, Liuzi said that Brother Wu didn't ask him to show up. Although he knows some martial arts, he can't fly like Brother Wu. If he encounters any emergency, he can just disappear without a trace, hehe."
Meng Wan nodded. Wu Hen had considered it carefully. This was good. It was heard that the male protagonist that Hu liked also hung out with people on a daily basis. This was good too. The more people he knew, the better.
"Second Madam, I am so curious. After I finish my work, can I go to the outer courtyard to wait for Brother Wu? I want to hear what happened first and come back to tell you to relieve my boredom. How do you think?"
Cai'er's big eyes were full of excitement. Meng Wan tapped her forehead and said, "You just watch the fun all day long. What's so good about it? If it really happens, the atmosphere in the mansion will be very low. I tell you, don't put a smile on your face when the time comes, or you will get into trouble."
"Don't worry, Madam. I said this in the yard, and it was in the house. Sister Chuan'er has reminded me more than once that only the two of us know about this matter. Even Madam Kong doesn't know. I know the seriousness of the matter."
Cai'er quickly replaced the new tent and asked, "Second Madam, what is the air pressure you are talking about?"
"Huh? It's just a depressing, uncomfortable atmosphere."
Just after finishing cleaning up here, Meng Wan saw Chuan'er entering the yard and heading upstairs.
"So, Mrs. Qiu is feeling better now?" Meng Wan said in surprise.
Mrs. Qiu is Song Zhu's aunt, the second-class housekeeper who served the old princess.
Chuan Er nodded, "When I went there, Yongqing had just been given medicine and went to sleep. I wanted to see what happened to Mrs. Qiu with my own eyes before reporting back to Second Madam, so I just waited a little longer."
Meng Wan asked, "You did the right thing. Was she badly hurt by the fall?"
"He fell and hit his head. He was watching Yongqing's family wash clothes and wanted to help. He accidentally slipped and hit his head on the wooden bench. The doctor said it was a lucky bench. If it was any other bench, he would be dead by now."
Chuan Er wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued, "When I talked to her, she spoke intermittently. She could remember some things, but not much. I could see that she was very anxious and sometimes she kept hitting her head."
"Don't worry. It's a good thing that she can remember it. Let her think about it slowly. We mainly want to know if there is anything between the old princess and the princess that cannot be told to outsiders. And I have always suspected that the reason why she became like this was that losing her family was a blow, but there must be other reasons."
Chuan Er nodded, "I think so too. Whenever Mrs. Qiu talked about the old princess, her expression was very complicated. I thought that maybe she had remembered a lot, but she just didn't dare to say it."
Meng Wan was stunned. This was also possible. This capable mother who had served the old princess for so many years must know the secrets of the inner palace. It was not impossible that she didn't dare to say it even though she remembered it.
"If you do this, let Song Zhu's family make another trip and let her talk to Mrs. Qiu like this..." Chuan'er nodded repeatedly.
Meng Wan, who had just taken a nap, unexpectedly found Zhou Yu sitting on the chaise longue flipping through a book. Hearing some noise inside the tent, she stood up and lifted the tent curtains. "This tent has a nice color, and it looks refreshing."
"Why are you back?" Meng Wan rubbed her eyes, her rosy face showing a healthy glow.
Zhou Yu took the teacup from the high table and handed it to Meng Wan. Meng Wan took a sip of boiled water from Zhou Yu's hand.
"How's it going? Was it successful?" Meng Wan turned around, took the clothes and put them on.
Zhou Yu put down his teacup and reached out to button Meng Wan's shirt. He also stroked the top of her chest from time to time, causing Meng Wan to pat his hand lightly, "Let's talk about business. Don't make me anxious."
Zhou Yu chuckled, "I didn't go either. I was waiting for Gao Yang and Li He at the restaurant. They came back excitedly, saying that Lu Chengbao's nephew was a hero who saved a beauty today. But there were many young ladies who went to Hongluo Temple today. They were all related to Viscount Lecheng's family. They didn't know which family or which young lady it was. So, I don't know if it was Zhou Yingning now."
Meng Wan came down from the ground and smoothed his clothes again, "There won't be any accidents, right?"
"It's hard to say. Everything has to wait until the second sister comes back. After all, she has to do the things inside by herself."
"Where's Brother Wu? What did he say?"
"He just said that everything went according to plan. That Lu Waizi did carry a young lady who had fallen into the water. The young lady was wearing a dress in the color of azure blue. She was nestled in Lu Waizi's arms. Wu Hen couldn't see who it was."
Lu Waizi was the nickname Gao Yang and his friends gave to Lu Chengbao's nephew. He had been injured when he was a child and his head was always tilted to one side.
Because his uncle was the first eunuch beside the emperor, this Lu Waizi boasted that he could get in among the upper-class young men in the capital. He spent a lot of money, but he only got into the middle-class families, and those who had a bit of backbone would not let their children associate with him.
Therefore, those who usually take his cats and dogs for a walk are either greedy for his money or want to get in touch with Lu Chengbao through him. Lu Waizi doesn't mind, as long as they can stay around him and flatter him.
Gao Yang and Li He wouldn't even eye him, but because Lu Chengbao was so highly regarded by the emperor, they couldn't say much even if they didn't like Lu Waizi. They were two very clear-cut people.
Therefore, Zhou Yu had put a lot of thought into attracting the attention of these two to Lu Waizi. After Zhou Yinghan's determination was clear, Zhou Yu would always mention a few words to them whenever he was hanging out with them, especially intentionally or unintentionally trying to lead them to Lu Chengbao.
As time went on, the two of them were persuaded by Zhou Yu's words and thought that if they really gave Lu Waizi some sweet treats and got some information about Lu Chengbao out, and then went home to take credit for it to their families, then their families would definitely look at them differently, and they would be people who could contribute to the family.
So, with this idea in mind, the two heard that Lu Waizi was going to Hongluo Temple, and thought about meeting him by chance, letting Lu Waizi come closer first, and then planning for the future.
Naturally, Zhou Yu, the instigator, did not show up, so the two idiots were sent away. When this matter was exposed, with these two playing around, there would be no big trouble, and even if the Hu family wanted to cover it up, they would not be able to.
Of course, the prerequisite is that the person that Lu Waizi succeeded in getting is indeed Zhou Yingning.
Meng Wan nodded. This morning, when she saw Yunxiang packing two pieces of clothing into a bag and handing it to Guyu, one of them was of the color of Tianshuibi.
"Is my second sister okay?"
"It's okay. Wu Hen said that when everyone was in a commotion, my second sister was in the crowd."
Meng Wan exhaled. This was good. Even if Zhou Yingning was not targeted today, it would be one of the Hu family's relatives who would be in trouble. The Hu family would be in a state of panic. As long as she had no time to take care of the affairs of the mansion, Zhou Yinghan would be quiet for a while.
Of course, it would be great if it really was Zhou Yingning.
