The bright moon above her head gradually disappeared into the clouds, but Xie Wu, lying on the bed, tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
Bairi Yulan's words kept echoing in her mind over and over again.
If Yang still had a trump card in the Hou Mansion, she should have used it when Xie Yuan was about to be sent to Qingyun Temple! But why didn't she use it?
Or, this trump card is not actually in Yang's hand...
Yang Hefeng!
A name suddenly flashed into Xie Wu's mind.
Yes! Yang Hefeng must have used Yang's hand to plant an spy in the Hou Mansion! Therefore, Yang knew the existence of this spy, but she couldn't control him!
"Broken jade!" Xie Wu suddenly sat up from the bed. She raised her hand to push aside the curtain and shouted forcefully towards the room.
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow silently jumped down from the beam.
At the same time, Mi Yue, who was guarding outside, also heard the noise.
"Girl..." She quickly opened the door and walked in. She was about to tell Xie Wu that she was keeping vigil tonight, but she didn't want to. After taking two steps, she saw a person kneeling in front of the bed.
The moon climbed out of the clouds at some point, and the faint moonlight shone on the man through the window lattice. Although it was a little blurry, combined with the girl's shout just now, Miyue froze on the spot.
"Mi Yue, go and watch outside." Xie Wu's cold voice suddenly brought Mi Yue back to her senses.
Miyue pursed her lips and glanced at Broiyu, who was still kneeling silently in front of the bed. Although she was full of doubts, she still followed her words and blessed Xie Wu, and then quietly left.
The room finally became quiet again.
"Did Yang Hefeng have an spy in the Hou Mansion?" Xie Wu looked at Suiyu and asked her directly.
Suiyu raised her head and glanced at Xie Wu. Although she was a little hesitant in her heart, but thinking about the young master's words, she still respectfully replied to Xie Wu, "Girl, let alone the Wu'an Hou Mansion, in any house with some respect in this capital, Jin Yiwei is indispensable.
Eyeliner.”
Otherwise, how could everyone be so silent when mentioning Jin Yiwei!
It was also because of Xie Zheng's sudden appointment as deputy general of Zuo Yiwei by His Majesty that the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion came into the sight of Jin Yiwei.
"I mean Yang Hefeng!" Xie Wu looked at Suiyu and said in a cold voice.
Suiyu couldn't help but frowned, "Girl, is there any difference?"
"What do you think?" Xie Wu asked her with a raised eyebrow and a sneer.
Suiyu was startled by Xie Wu's sharp eyes. She didn't understand why the girl was so cold and solemn all of a sudden. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then looked at Xie Wu again and said, "Yes, the eyeliner installed by the Jin Yiwei in the Hou Mansion is gone."
Yang Hefeng has a thousand households under his command."
"Do you know who the eyeliner is?" Xie Wu asked again.
Suiyu nodded, "I know this."
"That's good." After hearing Suiyu's affirmative answer, Xie Wu's lips finally showed a light smile.
"Girl, don't worry, there hasn't been any movement since she entered the house, and the young master has also sent people to keep an eye on her." Thinking that Xie Wu was worried that the eyeliner would be detrimental to her, Suiyu smiled and said to her again
explained.
Lu Zhan?
Yes, she almost forgot that Lu Zhan was also reborn!
"You just said that Lu Zhan sent people to keep an eye on that spy?" Xie Wu quickly grasped the key points from Suiyu's words.
"Yes." Suiyu responded in a clear voice.
Xie Wu's slender eyebrows raised slightly, and a faint smile appeared on the corners of her lips.
Also, Lu Zhan and Yang Hefeng were never in the same boat, so how could he just watch Yang Hefeng tie the Wu'an Houfu to the boat opposite him!
Lu Zhan is not stupid. Now that there is no movement, he most likely wants to play the game of mantis chasing cicada, with the oriole behind!
It was originally a fox that had cultivated for thousands of years and became a spirit, but this fox still lived for two lives!
"Girl?" Seeing Xie Wu's eyes flashing and not speaking for a long time, Suiyu couldn't help but open her mouth and called her out again.
"Okay, I'm fine, you can go back!" Xie Wu frowned slightly, and her voice suddenly sounded a little more impatient than before.
In his previous life, Lu Zhan was able to amuse everyone even if he was not reborn. The prince and the King of Qi were all in his hands, not to mention that he still carries the memories of his previous life. He has taken advantage of the right time, location, and people.
, in this life, it will be difficult for him not to win!
With Lu Zhan here, she certainly doesn't have to worry about the spy, but the Marquis of Wu'an's house might not be able to even think about Lu Zhan's ship!
That's her...
Besides Lu Zhan, does she have any other choice?
That night, Xie Wu couldn't sleep.
Time flew by quickly. After several heavy rains, the weather suddenly became hotter. Fortunately, the Hou Mansion stored a lot of ice cubes last year. They will move them out now. It is quite cool in the house, and Grandma Luo deliberately made ice cubes.
Sour plum soup, so even though the cicadas outside were noisy, Xianyue's face didn't show any annoyance at all, and she concentrated on drinking the soup.
Xie Wu likes to drink sour food, but she really doesn't like sour plum soup, so she only took two sips and then put the bowl away. This was an advantage for Xianyue. She hugged the remaining large pot of sour plum soup and drank it all.
revel.
"You drink less, this stuff is cold, drinking too much is not good!" Seeing Xianyue hugging the big basin and not letting go, Grandma Luo felt a little helpless.
As soon as Grandma Luo finished speaking, Xianyue took a few more sips. After she finished drinking, she took the time to say to Grandma Luo, "It's okay, it's okay, Grandma, I'm feeling better!"
Grandma Luo looked at Xianyue's rounded waist, and finally, she could only shake her head helplessly, and turned to Xie Wu and said, "I don't know what kind of reincarnation this girl was, so she can be so edible!
"
For a little girl as big as her, no one should pay attention to her figure. She was the only one who was completely focused on getting into trouble.
It is also her good fortune to meet a master like this girl, let her be, and pamper her!
Thinking of this, Grandma Luo felt a little envious of Xianyue.
After hearing what Grandma Luo said, Xie Wu couldn't help but smile. She looked at Xianyue and said, "Grandma is right. This sour plum soup is too cold. You'd better drink less. Otherwise, you'll have a stomachache at night."
!”
"Well, wouldn't it be wasted if I don't finish it?" Xianyue looked at the half of the sour plum soup left in the basin that she drank, and couldn't help but frowned.
When she didn't come to the girl's side, let alone such good things as sour plum soup, even her stomach was never full.
"Then if you have a stomachache, wouldn't it cost more to hire a doctor?" Xie Wu looked at Xianyue, smiled and raised her eyebrows at her and said.
Xianyue was silent now.
She looked at the attractive-colored sour plum soup in her hand, struggled for a long time, and finally slowly handed the basin in front of Grandma Luo.
Even though she had handed over the basin, Ke Xianyue's eyes were still glued to the basin. Seeing this, Xie Wu couldn't help but curl her lips and smile. She said, "At the beginning of spring, there are still some sour bamboo shoots pickled by grandma.
In the evening, I'll let grandma make some sour bamboo shoots and old duck soup."
Xianyue's eyes lit up and she was about to speak when a cheerful voice from outside answered her first.
"Girl, do you want to drink sour bamboo shoots and old duck soup in the evening?"
As these words rang out, Nanny Zhu's figure soon appeared at the door.
"Mammy, why are you here?" Seeing Mammy Zhu, Xie Wu stood up with a smile.
Aunt Zhu walked up to Xie Wu with a smile, she blessed her, and then she called her with a smile and said, "Girl, I am sending you some grapes and watermelons on the order of the old lady.
Use ice to catch it."
After Grandma Zhu said this, the two little maids behind her obediently put the things on the table.
Xie Wu glanced at the fruits on the table, smiled and said, "I'd like to ask my grandma to help me thank my grandma later."
Based on the old lady's shrewdness, it was impossible for her not to guess that Aunt Jiang's matter was her fault. After all, she did not hide from others when she went to find Jiang Yingxue.
But what surprised Xie Wu was that the old lady never mentioned it.
It was as if she hadn't discovered anything.
Until now, she asked Aunt Zhu to send fruits...
"Yes, I will remember the girl's words, and I will tell the old lady when I get back later." Aunt Zhu answered with a smile.
Xie Wu smiled, looked at Aunt Zhu, and suddenly said, "Mom, what message did grandma ask you to bring here?"
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Aunt Zhu's face slowly stiffened. She glanced at Xie Wu apologetically, and then said slowly and calmly, "Miss, the old lady did let me take the message."
come over……"
"Mommy, you just said there is no defense." Xie Wu looked at Aunt Zhu with a smile and said.
Aunt Zhu lowered her head and saluted Xie Wu. After the ceremony, she looked at Xie Wu again and said, "Miss, the old lady has already found a candidate for the aunt for the prince..."
If it hadn't been for the last incident that made the old lady a little embarrassed, she should have let this aunt in long ago. The reason why she has delayed it for so long is because the old lady's patience with Chen has reached its limit.
However, Mrs. Chen led her two daughters straight to the Hou Mansion every three days.
"The old lady is afraid that the girl will think too much, so she thought of letting the servants let you know in advance." Aunt Zhu looked at Xie Wu and said.
Xie Wu smiled and nodded towards Aunt Zhu, and she said, "I wonder if the aunt she chose is..."
"It's jade." Nanny Zhu answered Xie Wu's question without any hesitation.
Jade...
She remembered that she seemed to be quite close to her second aunt.
However, compared to Pearl, a girl who is honest and responsible, Jade is much more cunning and cunning. The old lady wants to send someone to challenge Chen, but it will not work if she is too honest and responsible. Jade is just right.
"But my father has not been at home these two days." Xie Wu looked at Nanny Zhu and added with a smile.
"What the old lady wants is to let Feicui move in first. Anyway, the prince will always come back." After speaking, Aunt Zhu lowered her eyes. She was a little afraid to look at Xie Wu.
After all, she was the girl she watched grow up, and she didn't want her to be in trouble.
But Xie Wu just smiled lightly after hearing what Grandma Zhu said. She said, "Mammy, I'm fine. Since grandma said so, then everything should be according to grandma's wishes!"
She was really tired of Mrs. Chen often dragging Mrs. Chen to her house, and letting her get close to the two girls of the Chen family, overtly and covertly. Miss Chen San was fine, but Miss Chen Si...
Although she could avoid it, how could Xie Wu feel happy if someone occupied her house and refused to leave.
But after all, Mrs. Chen is Chen's natal family, and she doesn't want to break up with her unless she has to.
Now that Jade is here to distract Mrs. Chen, she must not be able to find the mood to talk to Mrs. Chen anymore.
After all, in Mrs. Chen's heart, her husband is much more important than her natal family!
"Since the girl said so, I will tell the old lady what you mean as soon as I get back." Seeing that Xie Wu was not as embarrassed as she imagined, Grandma Zhu also breathed a sigh of relief.
Xie Wu smiled and nodded.
The old lady's move was to kill first and then show off, which could be regarded as completely cutting off Xie Zheng and Chen's escape route.
Aunt Zhu also smiled along with her, and when she was about to stand up and leave, she seemed to remember something again, "By the way, girl, there is one more thing. Before I came here, the old lady also said that Cuizhuyuan is small. If my aunt moves in,
I'm afraid that the girl will feel restrained, and since you are now older, I might as well build a separate yard for you to live in. What do you think?"
Is this because he is afraid that she will help Chen suppress Jade, so do you want to move her away?
Grandma, she is really thoughtful!
No wonder, a few days ago, the old lady asked her mother-in-law to clean up the yard in Taohuawu in the south for no reason. It turned out that it was prepared for her!
