Hearing that distant scream, both Yingchun and Xiuju were startled, but it was Tanchun who was really frightened.

She was hiding in the darkness and was thinking about whether to get closer and listen to what Yingchun's master and servant were talking about. Suddenly, she heard a shout from not far behind her. She was caught off guard and her scalp was numb with shock.

He turned around stiffly and mechanically, only to see Caixia and Caiyun Zhenghe holding a lantern, standing two or three feet away from him.

"Two, why are you two sisters here?"

Tan Chun secretly complained, but also wondered why these two people appeared behind him.

You must know that because of her ulterior motives, she always picked the less traveled paths along the way, and now she was in a remote corner. Caixia and Caiyun appeared here for no reason, but how could they appear here?

To explain this matter, we have to push back the time to two quarters of an hour ago.

Seeing that it was getting late, Mrs. Wang was worried that she would be too late and could not catch Jiao Shun, so she hurriedly called Caixia and Caiyun. Under the guise of worrying about her son, she ordered: "I saw that Baoyu looked reluctant this afternoon."

You look like this, but don’t fall into hysteria again at the wine table. You can go to the Champs Elysees and inquire about it. If there is anything wrong, come and report it to me immediately."

After a pause, he added: "By the way, if the master and Uncle Jiao are drunk, don't send them outside because the road is slippery in the dark. Instead, they can rest in the guest house instead of last time."

It is helpless to say that unlike Li Wan and Wang Xifeng, Mrs. Wang has people who know everything around her. However, with her status, she cannot do everything herself, so she has to leave things to the people below to do it, and at the same time

You need to find various reasons and try your best to hide the real purpose.

Obviously he was full of depression and impulsiveness, but he pretended to be careless. After he finished speaking, he had to worry about Caixia and Caiyun not being able to understand what he meant. In the end, everything was in vain.

The amount of effort and energy spent on this repeated entanglement was simply the most in her life!

However, her final dilemma was a bit unfounded.

Caiyun might not be able to hear anything fishy, ​​but Caixia, because of Aunt Zhao's influence, had long suspected that Mrs. Wang and Jiao Shun had some confusion. Now that she heard her offer to let Jiao Shun stay overnight in the Grand View Garden, she was already convinced.

I guessed a lot.

Therefore, after taking the order and leaving the hut in Qingtang, my heart felt like it was overturned.

After all, it's one thing to have suspicions, and another thing to be sure!

That was the second wife, the imperial concubine and Baoyu’s biological mother, the most noble woman in the Rongguo Mansion besides the old lady!

If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, who would have dared to believe that she actually had an affair with Jiao Shun, a domestic slave?!

This was filled with the throbbing of spying on the secrets of the rich family. Caixia subconsciously felt that she was doing something shameful, so she led Caiyun along the secluded path. In the end, she bumped into Tanchun who was thinking the same thing.

.

Hearing Tanchun's somewhat panicked question, Caixia calmed down her mind first, and then replied: "It was my wife who ordered us to come over and ask if the second master had done anything rude. The third girl is here, but it's because of

What?"

Although Tanchun vaguely felt that there must be other reasons why Caixia and colorful clouds appeared here, but after hearing Caixia's question again, he didn't bother to think more deeply for the moment. He gained wisdom in his haste, pointed back to Yingchun in the distance, and said to Xiuju

: "I just saw the second sister and Xiuju coming this way. I was worried that something might happen to her, so I followed them quietly."

Due to Yingchun's recent 'disobedient' behavior, no one in the whole house knew about it, so the two of them didn't notice anything was wrong.

At this time, Yingchun and Xiuju were also at a loss, and were debating whether to leave or stay. Suddenly they saw the other side pointing in this direction, and knew that they could not avoid it, so they had no choice but to stay where they were and wait.

He asked the three people on the opposite side to find him.

When they got closer, they realized that the people coming were Tanchun, Caixia and Caiyun. The master and servant became more and more nervous.

After all, the old lady had just entrusted the marriage between Yingchun and Sun Shaozu to Mrs. Wang, but now Yingchun came to discuss the idea of ​​'breaking off the engagement'. If Mrs. Wang knew about it...

But immediately, Jia Yingchun, who was usually the worst at dealing with this, bit her lower lip and forced herself to calm down. She also took the initiative to take two steps forward and greeted, "Why are the third sister and the two elder sisters here?"

Although he had gotten through the test, Tanchun still felt guilty after all, so he chose to remain silent and left the initiative to Caixia and Caiyun.

Caixia explained her apparent purpose of coming, and was about to ask Yingchun why she was here, but Yingchun said first, "I just felt stuffy, so I went out for a walk with Xiuju casually. Since the sisters have business to do, I won't disturb you."

Already."

After saying that, he bowed slightly, then led Xiu Ju and hurried away.

After watching the master and servant go away, Tanchun, Caixia, and Caiyun looked at each other, and after a while they sighed: "Second sister really seems to be a different person now."

Caixia and Caiyun nodded one after another, feeling that the changes in welcoming the spring were great.

However, thinking about Jia She's sexy tricks, I think it is reasonable for the second girl to have such a change.

Tanchun said again: "Since the second sister is fine, I will go back first."

With that said, he said goodbye to Caixia and Caiyun in the same vigorous and vigorous manner.

But not far after she walked out, she was suddenly stopped by someone again. This person was Xiren, the maid next to Baoyu.

Xiren came to Lotus Root Champs for Baoyu, but when he bumped into Tanchun on the way, he remembered the embarrassment in his heart, so he hurriedly stopped the third girl and said, "After grandma told me about the plum blossom fan, I

I went back and discussed it with the second master. The second master said that he wanted to find out that he was from our courtyard, so he kicked the person out directly to avoid being embarrassed in front of others."

"But after thinking about it, I always feel that this matter is not safe. After all, this is not only a matter in our courtyard, but also involves so many sisters, not to mention that even Princess Nan'an has joined the society."

"If we suppress it quietly, the girls will definitely have to investigate again. If it is exposed in the end, it will appear that we are in the wrong..."

After her long talk, she felt that Yihongyuan was the most suspected of leaking information, so she wanted to find the third girl, who was always assertive, to discuss the best of both worlds. It would be best to help Yihongyuan cover up the past quietly, and also

This will prevent the poetry club from pursuing the matter.

At any other time, Tanchun might have been able to give her serious advice, but now she was in such a mess that she couldn't figure out her own affairs. How could she have the time to give Xiren advice?

At the moment, he just said perfunctorily: "Sister, don't be anxious. Let me go back and think about it carefully. If there is a way, I will tell my sister. If it doesn't work, it is best to ask the second brother to hand him over. Naturally, we brothers and sisters have no taboos, but now after all, there are still

It's better to have Princess Nan'an here and have people laugh at me for being lax than to be thought of as a deliberate deception."

The attacker nodded slightly and thought carefully for a while, then raised his head and found that there was nothing in front of him, and the third girl was no longer there.

She couldn't help but be stunned, wondering what was going on with these three girls?

In the past, when something happened in Yihong Courtyard, she was always the most warm-hearted person, but why now she didn't even want to say a word and just left without saying goodbye?

Not to mention how confused the attacker was.

But when Tanchun returned to Qiu Shuangzhai, he was still frowning.

Not only did her visit to Lotus Champs fail to achieve her goal this time, but it indirectly proved her worries - it was just that she was worried about Lin Daiyu at first, but she didn't expect that her second sister was also a threat.

What about Xichun?

Will she also...

For a moment, the Grand View Garden turned into a dark jungle in Jia Tanchun's eyes. Countless visible or invisible opponents were lurking in the jungle, and might appear at any time to compete with her for the only prey.

This heightened the urgency in her heart, and she increasingly hoped to finalize the joint contract as soon as possible, and it would be best to get a written contract.

But after all, she is a woman who has not left the court, and it is not easy to meet Jiao Shun in private - as can be seen from what happened today.

After thinking about it, she couldn't help but blame Wang Xifeng again. If her second sister-in-law hadn't suddenly appeared, she would have gotten what she wanted!

but……

Tanchun thought about it again and felt that this might also be an opportunity. If he and Wang Xifeng revealed what happened that night and asked her to be the matchmaker to make a marriage agreement, and also to form an offensive and defensive alliance, wouldn't it be possible to

Bad things turn into good things?

As for whether doing so would 'lead the wolf into the house', Jia Tanchun didn't really care.

She had seen a lot of three wives and four concubines in daily life, and there were people like Jia She, Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, and Jia Qiang as foils. She didn't believe that men would be loyal to women - if they were, they probably were.

The kind of person who has a thief but no courage will never be a bold person like Jiao Shun.

It's just that I am willing to share a piece of the pie with my second sister-in-law, but I don't know what my second sister-in-law thinks. She is a famous jealous person in the whole house. I think back then, she dominated the second brother Lian, and even a maid like Ping'er, who was justifiably generous, was squeezed out.

You can't get close to Brother Lian.

If she had the intention of occupying the magpie's nest...

Thinking of this, Tanchun was a little undecided for a while.

As for sending the message through Aunt Zhao, she never thought about it from beginning to end - this biological mother has always succeeded more than failed, so if she was left to do it, there might be some trouble.

…………

Let’s go back to Caixia and Caiyun.

After seeing off Tanchun, Caiyun took the initiative and suggested: "Second girl said she wanted to take a walk, but she just stopped here. In my opinion, it would be better for us to let my wife know earlier - I have seen Nian Er.

It’s time for the girl to leave the government. If something scandalous happens at this time, who can afford it?”

She knew more about Yingchun and Jiao Shun's past than Tanchun, who had not paid attention at the beginning, so she was more worried about the resumption of their relationship.

嘁~

Isn't there a lot of scandal in this house?

Caixia didn't care in her heart, but she felt that it was more convenient for her to leave Caiyun alone, so she nodded and said: "The old lady just entrusted the second girl to our wife, and her affairs must be reported to the wife as soon as possible -

Otherwise, I will stay here to inquire about the second master, and you can go back and report this matter to your wife."

Caiyun naturally had no objection.

So they parted ways, and Caiyun returned to the thatched cottage in Qingtang, while Caixia pretended to be Jia Zheng's companion and asked if Baoyu had lost his composure during the banquet.

With Jia Baoyu's resistance, it is definitely impossible to say that he is not losing his composure at all.

However, with Jia Zheng holding him down, the most he could do was complain in a roundabout way, and he never dared to vent his emotions blatantly. He was even forced by Jia Zheng to open the draft of the memorial on the spot, and asked Jiao Shun for advice.
To be continued...
