Shantu paused, thought for a moment, and then calmly asked, "Young lady, are you asking about Madam Cheng Lin, who took advantage of the First Madam's pregnancy to sneak into the Master's bed and was subsequently kicked out of the mansion?"
Jiang Fugui's eyes widened. She had no idea that Madam Cheng Lin was so dirty that she even dared to dream of climbing into her father's bed and becoming the concubine of the eldest wife?
I have to say, Madam Cheng Lin is really brave!
However, Jiang Fugui was even more surprised that Shantu knew about Matron Cheng Lin. After all, she was much younger than Matron Qingyan and Qingyun.
"you know?"
"When the news reached the mansion, I had just been transferred to serve in the old lady's courtyard, so I had heard a little about it." Shantu folded up the white tiger fur coat and placed it on a wooden tray. "How did the young lady know about this person?"
Jiang Fugui said casually, "I heard Nanny Ye mention it by chance."
Shantu's eyes darkened, but his tone remained unchanged: "What do you want to see her for, young lady?"
Jiang Fugui carefully observed Shantu's expression, which seemed to indicate something: "It's just... well, I want to ask her something."
In fact, what she wanted to know most was why the isolated city was breached!
No matter how much inside information this Madam Cheng Lin knew, at least she could get some clues that she didn't know.
"I'm not sure about the details." Shantu nodded and did not refuse Jiang Fugui. "Then I'll send someone to find out tomorrow."
"okay."
Jiang Fugui responded, but he was thinking in his heart: I wonder if Nanny Cheng Lin is still alive now?
In her previous life, she searched for many years, but all she found was a wild grave with dead grass and no one to take care of it.
After the fur coat was ready, Shantu went to Xiluoyuan to report the news to Old Lady Jiang. When she came back, he also brought Old Lady Jiang's instructions to take good care of the second young lady's daily life and diet.
Therefore, during dinner time, Shantu specially ran to the kitchen in the mansion and stood aside to supervise the chefs.
According to Old Lady Jiang, the food for the second young lady of Beiliyuan must be packed according to the normal portions for the young masters and young ladies in the mansion. There cannot be any mistakes, not even for young men.
As soon as his son Shantu left with the food box, the eight or nine cooks, servants and maids in the kitchen breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hey, hey, I say, did you see that? That's the maid who serves in the old lady's courtyard!"
"Who says she isn't? Shantu is a second-class maid in the old lady's courtyard. Her status in the mansion is slightly higher than that of ordinary maids, so it's not easy to offend her. I heard earlier that the old lady gave Shanying, a third-class maid who served by her, to the second young lady. Now I'm afraid she has also given Shantu to the second young lady."
Two laundry women gathered at the door of the kitchen, whispering to each other as they watched Shantu's back gradually walk away.
After a while, another fat old woman, wiping her hands with a dry cloth, joined the two washing women and started gossiping about their masters together with them.
"I'm afraid that the Second Miss will have the protection of the old lady in the mansion in the future, so we can't treat her with contempt and neglect as before."
"Humph, not necessarily! You've seen the Second Madam's methods before. She might kill the Second Young Lady one day."
"Shh, don't talk about this. Don't you want to stay in the mansion?"
"What are you afraid of? We're all on the same side now, there's no one else here!"
……
A group of people gathered together, talking noisily, and no one noticed Shantu standing behind them and returning.
