Chapter 186: The man has feelings and the woman is willing.
"Okay, okay, no need to say more." Jiang Xue interrupted quickly, a blush already appearing on her face.
Aunt Liu smiled and covered her mouth, saying, "Miss Jiang, there is no need to be shy. You two are in love, and no one will say anything."
"Does anyone else in the mansion know about this?"
"I am the only servant in the mansion who takes care of the yard."
Jiang Xue nodded after hearing this. Fortunately, only Madam Liu knew about it, otherwise she would have lost all her face.
Aunt Liu saw Jiang Xue in a daze and reminded her, "Miss, choose one."
"Ah, OK." Jiang Xue reacted and randomly chose a light green dress, then asked Madam Liu, "Madam, how long have you been in the mansion?"
Madam Liu hung the light green dress aside and replied, "Oh, that took too long. I came into the mansion with Madam."
Jiang Xue thought about it and realized that she was Pei Zhijin's mother's person. No wonder Pei Zhijin trusted her so much.
Jiang Xue suddenly remembered what Madam Liu said just now, that the man has feelings for me and the woman has intentions, so she pursed her lips and asked, "What Madam Liu said just now, that the man has feelings for me... is it true?"
"Miss, can't you see it?" asked Matron Liu in surprise.
Jiang Xue thought for a moment and said, "It's vague and I'm not sure."
Madam Liu smiled and said, "If the master had no feelings for the young lady, he would have sent you back to the general's mansion last night and would not have taken care of you all night."
Jiang Xue's eyes were slightly stunned, and her heart seemed to be clear as if the clouds and mist had been cleared. Thinking of the way Pei Zhijin held her in the morning, the corners of her mouth raised. She said, how could Pei Zhijin have no feelings for her.
It seems that with Pei Zhijin's personality, he still has to take the initiative on his own.
Aunt Liu knew Pei Zhijin's personality and consoled him, "Our master is a reserved person. He doesn't show his emotions very well and is not very good at expressing himself."
"I know, Ma'am." Jiang Xue said with a smile.
After helping Jiang Xue change her dress and put on her jewelry, Nanny Liu went on to do other things, leaving Jiang Xue alone to stroll in the yard.
It was a sunny day, the golden sun shone on the leaves in the yard, and sprinkled on the ground through the gaps between the leaves. Jiang Xue couldn't help but look up, it felt like she hadn't seen such warm sunshine for a long time.
"Xue'er!" A hurried voice sounded outside.
Jiang Xue turned around and saw Lin Yiyi walking in anxiously from outside the yard.
"Yiyi, you..." Before Jiang Xue could finish her words, Lin Yiyi pulled her into the house and then took her around a few times.
Jiang Xue looked at Lin Yiyi's anxious and worried expression and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
"He didn't do anything to you, did he?"
Jiang Xue's brows drooped when she heard this. She sat on a stool beside her and said, "I wonder how he treats me."
"He didn't touch you?"
"No."
Lin Yiyi sat down next to Jiang Xue, "Then how did you get rid of the medicine in your body?"
"Liu Yu solved it." Jiang Xue said gritting her teeth.
After hearing this, Lin Yiyi slammed the table in anger, "I was saying, how can there be no antidote for any medicine?"
Jiang Xue looked at Lin Yiyi, and thought of her and Wang Ziyan. She suddenly stood up, looked at Lin Yiyi in disbelief, and said, "You two are not...did that happen?"
Lin Yiyi looked over with a somewhat angry face, then nodded heavily.
Jiang Xue burst out laughing, "I think you two are really a perfect match. You can't avoid it no matter how hard you try. If you ask me, you're still awkward. I think Wang Ziyan is pretty good."
"No, I've already said it, how can I take it back!" Lin Yiyi said angrily.
Jiang Xue saw through it but didn't say anything. She just lowered her head and smiled. She said, how could these two people break up so cleanly? It was obvious that Yiyi was still sulking.
But Jiang Xue still nodded in agreement and said, "You're right. When I get back, I'll urge Uncle Lin to speed up the process and cancel your marriage."
Lin Yiyi became discouraged after hearing this and whispered, "We are not talking about breaking off the engagement now..." Then she looked at Jiang Xue and said, "Oh, by the way, I have something important to tell you. The Concubine An last night was the Queen Mother's person."
Jiang Xue frowned, "But there is nothing wrong with the food she sent over." As she was recalling the past, she suddenly remembered the faint fragrance from last night.
His expression turned cold. "It seems that the Queen Mother still won't let us go. If that's the case, there's no need for us to show mercy."
"What do you want to do?" Lin Yiyi looked at Jiang Xue impatiently.
Jiang Xue's eyes moved, and she said, "We were going to expose the Queen Mother's crimes last night, but it was delayed because of Zhan Jing's matter. Now... we must not delay any longer."
Jiang Xue narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "I will ask someone to spread rumors in the capital in a while. They will sing all the things the Queen Mother did in the form of nursery rhymes. Then, it will all depend on Pei Zhijin."
Lin Yiyi nodded and said, "Good idea. As long as the Queen Mother is not removed, we will not have a single day of peace in the capital."
"Let's go to Wanhetang first."
"kindness."
Afterwards, the two of them left Pei's residence together and headed towards Wanhe Hall. In just one night, the capital city had returned to its original prosperity, with the sounds of hawking and children's laughter rising and falling in the streets.
Jiang Xue and Lin Yiyi walked together on the busy street, both with smiles on their faces. They strolled here and there on the street. It should have taken only half an hour, but it took them an hour to reach Wanhetang.
Because the flower Gu issue was resolved, the people who were poisoned by the Gu, although they didn't know how the disease was cured, still came to thank Wanhetang.
Liu Yu had just seen off a group of people and was packing medicinal herbs in the lobby when Jiang Xue and Lin Yiyi walked in.
Liu Yu hurried over and bowed slightly, saying, "Boss."
Jiang Xue looked at Liu Yu and thought of what happened last night. She was so angry that her teeth itched and said, "Doctor Liu is really a miracle doctor. He can cure any poison, don't you think?"
After Jiang Xue finished speaking, she looked at Lin Yiyi. Lin Yiyi had already heard Jiang Xue talk about what happened last night on the way here. She lowered her head and smiled without saying anything.
Liu Yu was confused and thought that they were talking about the flower poison. She didn't dare to take credit for it and said, "I didn't do anything. It was all thanks to my boss running around for me."
"That's not what I'm talking about."
"Ah?" Liu Yu frowned slightly and said, "The boss means..."
Jiang Xue turned her head away. It was not good to say such things to others' faces, otherwise it would seem that she was in a hurry. So she walked inside without looking back.
Liu Yu scratched his head and looked at Lin Yiyi in confusion.
Lin Yiyi raised the corner of her mouth, looked at Liu Yu and whispered: "What happened last night, it's you."
Liu Yu was stunned for a moment. Could it be that she had good intentions but ended up doing something nasty last night?
Lin Yiyi followed Jiang Xue to the backyard, where Pu Sheng was drying medicinal herbs, and Wang Chen was there too.
