Quick Wear: Cannon fodder fly bravely, good fortune will always follow

"Yes, Huier, you should go with your sister. We are all family. I will let Hongluo go with you later. After all, she is an elder in this mansion. I will feel at ease with her around." Yunxi also agreed with a smile.

Jiang Yueshu first nodded to her grandmother, then glanced at Hong Luo with an unclear expression.

The two followed Hong Luo toward the courtyard of the mansion. Not far away, they saw some young ladies and gentlemen gathered in groups of three or four in the courtyard talking. They should be guests who came to celebrate the birthday.

The scenery in the yard is very beautiful. Because it is autumn, chrysanthemums of different colors are blooming everywhere. The breeze blows, and the fragrance of chrysanthemums fills the nostrils, making people feel relaxed.

The ladies in the yard gradually noticed the two people coming towards them, and their expressions changed slightly.

The two young ladies in the Prime Minister's Mansion naturally knew that they had already seen the famous and beautiful Jiang Xinghui at various banquets in the imperial city.

However, this Second Miss Jiang used to attend various major banquets in the beginning, but as she grew older, she basically stopped being active among the ladies.

Most of them only remembered Jiang Yueshu at that time, who was extremely bloated, rude and vulgar, with an unstable temper, and did not look like the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion at all.

One of the two girls in front of them was the beautiful Miss Jiang San, and the other one was with her and had a bloated figure. Everyone guessed the answer in a few seconds.

Some of the ladies in the crowd immediately changed their expressions. They looked at the fat girl in disbelief, their eyes full of jealousy and disdain.

How could such a person be worthy of the stunning and loyal Marquis's son?

If it were Miss Jiang San, they might have to consider whether they could compare with her.

But this is Miss Jiang Er, a notorious fool in the imperial city, with a vulgar appearance, little knowledge, and no knowledge of etiquette.

Any lady picked out from the scene would surely be better than her!

But how could they be willing to let such a good-for-nothing person marry the son of the Marquis of Loyalty?

For a moment, the atmosphere on the field was silent, and everyone looked at Jiang Yueshu in silence.

A few lively ladies came forward and grabbed Jiang Xinghui, away from Jiang Yueshu, and chatted with him happily.

Jiang Yueshu stood there alone, with no one wanting to approach her to talk to her. It seemed as if she was in two different worlds from everyone else.

Jiang Xinghui felt secretly proud as she watched this scene. She listened to the conversation between the sisters with a smile on her face, but her mind drifted away.

This scene is so familiar!

Wasn’t that how Jiang Yueshu felt the last time she gave hairpins to her father and brother?

It was as if they were a family and she was just an outsider.

Now, Jiang Yueshu is excluded and isolated by the ladies in the imperial city. It’s time for her to experience the feeling of being abandoned!

Jiang Xinghui kept an eye on the silent Jiang Yueshu, and felt that the depression that had been lingering in his heart seemed to have dissipated a little.

Thinking of what his mother had told him before leaving, Jiang Xinghui's eyes flickered and he looked around the field.

Jiang Yueshu looked at this group of ladies whose eyes seemed to be wandering and whose thoughts seemed to be written on their faces, and left without caring. She took Lu Ping and Xia He to a pavilion to sit down and appreciate the flowers.

Several plates of pre-prepared pastries, candied fruits and tea had been placed on the stone table in the pavilion. Jiang Yueshu picked a few and ate them casually, and drank a glass of water.

Not long after she sat down, Jiang Yueshu saw a woman with dignified manners and light steps walking towards her from the corner of her eye.

"But is it the Jiang family's sister?"

A gentle and soft female voice came, and Jiang Yueshu looked up. The woman in front of her was dignified and beautiful, with a generous demeanor, and a slightly raised corner of her mouth, with gentle kindness.

Jiang Yueshu smiled and said, "Hello, Sister Liu, I am Jiang Yueshu, the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Liu Jingyan was startled when she heard this, and the smile on her face became even more intense, "Do you know me?"

Jiang Yueshu smiled softly, "Shushu knows who my brother admires."

Her brother's wedding to the minister's daughter was a few days earlier than hers, so she naturally knew her future sister-in-law.

Liu Jingyan blushed when she heard this, and took a sip from the cup on the table to cover it up, "Sister, don't make fun of me."

She felt a little sorry for Sister Jiang because she was alone, so she deliberately declined her friend and came to talk to her.

She had also heard of the reputation of her future sister-in-law, but because of Jiang Yixiu, she had an inexplicable liking for this girl and came here spontaneously.

Because they had Jiang Yixiu as a common topic, the two chatted happily, and after just a few words, they became closer.

Suddenly, a maid's voice was heard outside the pavilion.

"Miss, Madam Liu is looking for you."

Liu Jingyan, who was chatting animatedly, stopped, said goodbye to Jiang Yueshu and left.

As soon as Liu Jingyan left, a maid came over.

She held a pot of tea and poured tea for Jiang Yueshu with a serious expression.

The next second, he seemed to be tripped, and the water in the cup was about to spill out.

Jiang Yueshu wanted to move away immediately, but changed her mind after thinking about something.

She reacted very quickly and pulled the maid to block it with her body. The maid's clothes were soaked and the cup fell to the ground.

She seemed to be frightened and quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Miss, I didn't mean to do that. I just slipped and fell accidentally. Please forgive me..."

Jiang Yueshu looked at her gloomily without saying a word.

The maid was terrified and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Jiang Yueshu carefully observed the maid's expression, feeling fear mixed with a strong sense of guilt.

She subconsciously glanced at the maid's feet, and saw nothing but a wet spot on the ground.

Jiang Yueshu looked at it again in surprise. She remembered that the tea just now must have been spilled all over the maid.

How could there be something like this on the ground?

Jiang Yueshu squatted down and took a closer look. She wiped some of the moisture with a handkerchief, then picked it up and sniffed it.

She knows!

There's oil on it!

"What's on the bottom of your shoe?"

The maid who was begging for mercy was stunned. She lifted up her shoe and took a look. She saw a smooth bead on the sole.

She reached out to take it off, but after touching it for a while it didn't fall off.

"Okay, go down. Be careful next time." Jiang Yueshu waved the maid away.

Since the other party has chosen such a roundabout tactic, it means that it is impossible to directly find out who did it.

"How are you, miss? Are you burned?"

After seeing Jiang Yueshu deal with the maid, the two maids began to ask nervously.

"It's okay." Jiang Yueshu waved her hand.

Jiang Yueshu thought about it carefully. She stood up and looked around the table. Sure enough, she saw a light layer of wetness around the stool.

She stepped on it with her feet and it was not easy to slip.

While Jiang Yueshu was thinking, Jiang Xinghui suddenly came over in a hurry.

"Sister, I finally found you. I just talked to the other ladies in the mansion for a few words, and then I couldn't see you anymore." Jiang Xinghui spoke anxiously, seeming to care about her very much.

Jiang Yueshu looked at Jiang Xinghui with a smile, without saying a word.

Jiang Xinghui felt a little embarrassed. He never expected that after he had talked for a long time, Jiang Yueshu didn't respond at all.

She had no choice but to continue and explain her purpose.
