Chapter 125 Contagion

When Chen Xiuyan left the garden, she winked at Huahe, which meant to make her more alert. During these days, Huahe and her sister went to the martial arts school to study during the day and went to Granny Su's for an hour in the evening. There had been certain changes.

Because of our background, we understand these twists and turns better than others.

Chen Xiuyan followed the maid, looking around all the way, not forgetting to ask, "Do the clothes you prepared suit me? You said you lent me the new clothes, will others be willing to wear them in the future?"

"Don't worry, Mrs. Xie Yuan, the clothes you have worn will be worn by you home. From now on they will be your clothes and will not be worn by others." The maid lowered her head slightly and explained.

Chen Xiuyan laughed, "There is such a good thing, then do you think that if you splash it a few times, you can get more new clothes?"

The maid's body stiffened slightly. Although Chen Xiuyan's words sounded like she was taking advantage, the word "splashing wet" had a lot of connotation. The maid already felt guilty, so she could only apologize, "Mrs. Jie Yuan, I'm sorry, it's all

It’s my slave’s fault.”

"How could you be wrong? The fault lies with the person who ordered you to do something." Chen Xiuyan waved her hands and said. As for what the order was and who ordered it, only she knows.

The maid couldn't help but tremble after hearing Chen Xiuyan's words. She suddenly felt that what Mrs. Jie Yuan said was very heartbreaking.

Chen Xiuyan followed the maid for half a quarter of an hour to a small courtyard. Many flowers were planted in the yard. The maid pointed to the east wing and said, "The clothes prepared are all in the house. Please choose and change into them yourself, Mrs. Jie Yuan."

"Are the sizes suitable?" Chen Xiuyan asked, raising her eyebrows.

The maid tightened her hands and said, "There should be many suitable ones. The clothes I prepared were also newly made by my wife and young lady at home. Madam Jie Yuan's figure is similar to that of the fifth lady, so they will definitely fit."

"Oh, then you can help me get dressed." Chen Xiuyan turned to look at the maid and smiled.

The maid's eyes showed fear, but she quickly regained her composure, "I don't dare, I'm clumsy. I've already gotten to know Madam Yuan, but I'm afraid I won't be able to serve you well. Please forgive me, Madam Yuan."

"Then you go and wait outside. I want to go to the cleaning room first." Chen Xiuyan covered her stomach slightly and asked the maid where the cleaning room was.

The maid breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly showed her the way. The fifth lady of her family had said that she had to find a way to keep Mrs. Jie Yuan. It looked like she would need to stay in the clean room for a while.

Chen Xiuyan looked around the clean room and saw a small window opened in the wall near the roof. Ordinary people could not get out, but it could not lock her in.

All she could think of was that Liu Qingxiu had sprinkled powder on her clothes to make herself look embarrassed, so looking at the maid's posture just now, her clothes must not be touched.

Chen Xiuyan had to find other clothes to wear. She thought that Wang Yayu would definitely prepare an extra set. The two of them had similar body shapes. As long as she said that the ones prepared by Liu Zhai did not suit her, Wang Yayu would definitely agree.

Chen Xiuyan left quietly alone, taking some detours to avoid the walking servants, or hiding behind rockery and other shelters.

"Did Miss Fifth really ask Li'er to take care of that consumptive woman?"

"Yes, Li'er is too pitiful. That one is contagious. Miss Fifth is too kind-hearted. How could she pick up such a person and arrange for her to live in the village? If she ran out, wouldn't it be harmful?

Today is a chrysanthemum viewing feast."

"You shouldn't be able to escape by running. The third young master specially asked a dozen servants to watch from outside the yard. Not a single insect can fly out."

"I don't know what the fifth lady thinks. She is so kind to a strange woman with tuberculosis. I heard that she even gave her new clothes she made to wear."

"Miss Fifth has always been kind-hearted. This time she didn't let Third Young Master's concubine come to the village with her. I heard that although Ju'er died, Miss Fifth gave Ju'er's family a lot of settlement money. I heard that there were two

Twelve."

"The fifth lady is too kind."

"Okay, let's go deliver food to that concubine. She can't attend the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet, but she can still eat good food. The fifth lady specially ordered us, and the fifth lady is so kind to a concubine."



After the two maids who spoke left, Chen Xiuyan walked out from behind the rockery and frowned as she looked in the direction they left.

She didn't mean to be a villain, but that woman Liu Qingxiu looked a little gloomy. If she really did something like that, Chen Xiuyan frowned more and more as she thought about it.

Chen Xiuyan was not in a hurry to return to the banquet, but followed the two maids to a yard next to where she had just changed clothes.

"Aunt Chen, my servant has brought you food."

"Leave it outside."

Chen Xiuyan heard that the voice inside was Chen Man'er, but she was relatively weak and coughed occasionally. Chen Xiuyan's heart sank slightly, so she took out the mask from the space and put it on.

"She's so arrogant. Every time we bring food, she doesn't see anyone. She's just a concubine."

"Okay, didn't you hear her coughing? Wouldn't it be better if you didn't see her? She won't be sick for us."

The two gossiping maids complained softly, put down their food boxes and left the yard.

Chen Xiuyan could sense that there were several hidden people outside the yard, but she didn't pay attention. If they didn't show up, it meant the target was not her.

However, there was no servant to serve the aunt. When Chen Man'er saw that it was Chen Man'er who opened the door to pick up the food box, she already made up her mind.

"You have tuberculosis?"

The sudden sound frightened Chen Maner so much that she dropped the food box in her hand to the ground. She looked up at the person wearing a strange scarf. Chen Maner recognized the person from the big peach blossom eyes. She looked her up and down and then showed a mocking expression.

Smiling, "You didn't wear the clothes Liu Qingxiu prepared for you?"

"Are you wearing it?" Chen Xiuyan looked at Chen Man'er's face and listened to her coughing breaks, guessing that she had similar symptoms to Green White's mother, and the time when she contracted the disease should be similar.

Chen Maner laughed out loud after hearing Chen Xiuyan's words, "Chen Xiuyan, Chen Xiuyan, why are you so smart, and why am I so stupid."

Chen Maner smiled and shed tears, "Miss Liu Wu, who is like a Bodhisattva in front of her, is dark at heart. I know her reasons. She can't wait to get rid of me."

"Try it on me, give me clothes worn by people with tuberculosis. She is so cruel, cough..." Chen Maner coughed heartbreakingly.

Chen Xiuyan was already far away, and she even jumped on the wall when she coughed. She didn't want to be contaminated at all.

"I'm going to die. I originally wanted to have you as my companion, but you cleverly avoided it. If you want to laugh, I'll laugh."

"I have nothing to laugh about, but people like you are a disaster if they stay in the world, but they will be pure after death." Chen Xiuyan said truthfully.

If Chen Man'er felt remorseful today, she would want to remind herself that maybe Chen Xiuyan would save her, but for now, forget it, she is not merciful enough to be merciful to the person who wants to kill her.

Chen Xiuyan jumped off the wall and went directly to the flower-viewing courtyard. She wanted to know if there was any intersection between these tuberculosis people, otherwise it would be a disaster for Yijiang County if they spread.
