Text Chapter 350 Unexpected Threat
Seeing Jiao Rong's aura getting weaker and weaker, Pang Zi's heart finally settled. Wu smoothed the depression in his chest, and said coldly: "Today's events are not allowed to be spread to the outside world, if I hear a rumor, everyone present today must carefully weigh and weigh me! Wrap Jiao Rong in a mat and throw her to the mass grave in the west of the city to bury her!"
Seeing this, Yao sighed, and left without saying anything. Zhao Ziru glanced at Pang Zi thoughtfully, and also left with the girl, but her eyes were staring at Pang Zi's back, which made Pang Zi shiver fiercely.
The Xu family is just an aunt who is not favored and has no power, not to mention that she has no sense of existence in the Li Mansion, and at this time, she has just changed from rarely going out to not going out at all. Jiao Rong and Chunxiao are also two little-known little maidservants, who can't cause much turmoil in a deep mansion compound like Shangjing, which is full of splendid and prosperous people, and soon covered up the news of Li Shuci's return to Beijing.
Not only the third room, but the entire Li Mansion began to get busy.
King Jing's Mansion was burned badly before, and it is still under repair at this time. The Li Mansion split a separate courtyard for Helian Ting to live in, and when Li Shuci and his wife came back, they also wanted to live in the Li Mansion temporarily. In this way, not only can Helian Ting's father and daughter be protected, but most of the forces can be concentrated for a while, and it is very convenient to employ people and negotiate.
When Li Shuci returned to the Li Mansion, he was naturally happy and uncomfortable. Ponzi is the one who doesn't feel comfortable. Li Shuci said everything in the house, and she always felt as if there were more eyes staring at her.
In the cold winter, God finally couldn't hold back a few heavy snowfalls, and her mood was like this snowflake, the wind blew and scattered, and there was no stability. Previously, Jiao Rong took a total of more than 4,000 taels of silver from the Xu family, and she scraped together 5,000 taels and gave it to Zhao Ziru.
But for some reason, she just had 10,000 unrests in her heart.
Seeing her holding the roster in a daze, Jiao Rui changed a cup of hot tea for her and said, "Auntie is still thinking about Jiao Rong?"
Ponzi shook his head. Jiao Rong died, and the Wu family was not nosy to investigate where Xu's silver taels went. But as soon as the half-month period is up, will the person who detained Yuan Yong come to the door through Yuan Yong's disclosure? Although Yuan Yong is greedy for life and afraid of death, he will not provoke any powerful people when he is idle, but if he is in a hurry, what will happen to him?
If he shakes out their affairs, will the Wu family and the others still believe in themselves like they do now, thinking that Yuan Yong, like Jiao Rong, wants to pour dirty water on him and blackmail some benefits?
"Since it's not because of Jiao Rong, what else is my aunt worried about, is it because of the family affairs of the sixth girl?" Jiao Rui saw Li Shuyu's sorrow and anxiety in her eyes these days, thinking that Pang Zi was thinking about this. "The slave maid thinks that the marriage of the six girls does not have to worry, since the princess is back, and she usually gets along well with the six girls, I think that as long as the princess has a little snack, she will not worry about not having a suitable family. At this time, the aunt might as well choose a girl first, the slave is really busy. ”
Jiao Rui is different from Jiao Rong, she is a person who can say whatever she wants, and this kind of temperament is easier to grasp. Ponzi glanced at her and tossed the roster aside. He said, "Look at the second-class girl in the courtyard who can get along with you, and tell me a word or two, and I won't have to think so much." ”
Jiao Rui was about to think about it and talk to Pang Zi, when she heard a little girl outside report that Pang Zi's maiden family had come.
Pang Shi originally made a girl for the Wu family, and later she was just a concubine, and the relatives of the concubines and maids were generally not allowed to come to the door privately, although the Wu family was more lenient in her control, but she was also an honest person, and she never took the initiative to come to the Li Mansion to find her. Pang Zi Nahan said: "This is unusual, you go and see who is coming, and bring her in to talk." ”
After a while, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl wearing a light blue skirt came in behind Jiao Rui, and knelt down and kowtowed to Pang Zi to say goodbye: "Lancao greets my aunt." ”
"Lancao?" Pang looked at her suspiciously, she had never seen this person in her mother's house, and there were no one in the Pang family, so she would not be mistaken. What's more, several girls from the Pang family were also bought by her and sent to be called. "Who are you, who told you to come to me?"
Lancao smiled slightly, her appearance was delicate, she glanced at Jiao Rui, Pang Zi raised her eyebrows slightly in surprise, and waved her hand to Jiao Rui: "You go down first." ”
Lancao turned her head and saw Jiao Rui's figure disappearing at the door, so she turned her head and said to Aunt Pang: "The slave is not from the Pang family. ”
Ponzi frowned.
Lancao said softly, "Sister Jiao Rong asked me to come." ”
Pang Zi's heart suddenly became half cold, she half-supported her arms, and her upper body suddenly straightened up. She stared at the blue grass in front of her in silence, but the other party didn't seem to be afraid, so she had to ask, "What do you mean by this?" Jiao Rong made a big mistake, and the person is already dead, she asked you to come? Could it be that you have seen the hell?"
"Naturally, it was before Sister Jiao Rong's death. Lancao's tone was tepid, and she said, "I was her best sister in life, so she told me something before...... Dare to ask my aunt, is Jiao Rong's fault really her fault?"
Ponzi's whole body was wooden, and his scalp almost exploded. She knew that there was a reason why she was upset! It turned out that Jiao Rong actually kept her back hand!"What do you want to say?"
Lancao said: "Jiao Rong said that if something happens to her, she must have been harmed." ”
"Ridiculous!"
"Auntie, don't worry, why don't I tell the matter from beginning to end, auntie listens to whether it's right or not, if it's wrong, just kill me and get me out." Lancao ignored Aunt Pang's ugly face, and said to herself: "The first time my aunt met my cousin in private was in Hongxixuan, and I ...... in the private room."
"Shut up!" Pang Zi's face turned white, then from white to red, and then back to iron. She didn't control Yuan Yong's private meeting for the first time, and Yuan Yong's bold flirtation made her long-lost spring heart flutter......
Lancao obediently stopped, and it took Pang Zi a long time to calm down and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Pang Zi thought that Lancao would ask her for silver, but he didn't expect Lancao to kneel up straight, kowtow in a proper manner, and said: "Lancao doesn't want those things outside her body, and she doesn't want to blackmail her aunt with this, but Lancao has admired Young Master Li Yi in the house for a long time, and she doesn't ask for anything else, she just wants to be his warm-hearted person, and she is content to be by her side all the year round." Therefore, Lancao only begged her aunt to take the Lancao into the mansion, and then find an opportunity to send the Lancao to Young Master Li Yi......"
"That's what you're aiming for?" Ponzi was surprised. Although this condition was completely unexpected by her, it was more acceptable than asking her to pay for it. It's just that she still can't believe it, this girl is scheming, just for this?"
"Hmm. I had told Sister Jiao Rong about this at the beginning, but I didn't expect her to ...... before it came to pass" Lan Cao nodded, and kowtowed again very seriously: "Ask my aunt to fulfill it." ”
Aunt Pang thought for a long time and asked, "I guess you also know that Li Yi has a good character and will not approach the woman next to her at will." I'm afraid you've tried uselessly before you came to me, right?, but in that case, what can I do to send you to him, you must be too despised by me. ”
Although this Li Mansion is still a separate family, and the middle feed is also in the hands of the Wu family, the three rooms have long been said to be the same. She is an aunt, and she is still in the second room, so what qualifications does she have to meddle in the affairs of the young master in the third room.
Lancao said: "Not necessarily. As long as you are willing to work hard, there will always be a way. ”
Pang Zi was silent for a while before he said, "What guarantee do you have that you will keep your mouth shut about my affairs?"
Lan Cao said: "Lan Cao is just a weak woman, and she is not here for her aunt, so why bother to be thankless? She saw that Pang Zi's face became ugly again, and then said: "Auntie, you can rest assured, Lancao will not reveal half a word, if I say anything, you can also explain my ulterior motives to Li Yi, and when the time comes, I will not be able to ask for what I want." The Li family won't let me go, will they? Lancao doesn't want to make a lose-lose situation. ”
Pang Zi looked at her and gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I will arrange for you to enter the mansion as soon as possible." ”
Li Shuci went back to the house to rest for three or two days, and his spirit gradually recovered, and he clearly explained the matter of Zhao Feiran and the Confucian King to Li Weiqing, Helian Ting and others, and Li Yi couldn't sit still when he heard this. Li Shuci said: "Big brother, don't worry, the Confucian King won't move a finger of his sister-in-law, if you go, you will definitely startle the snake, you must stay in the capital and pretend to continue to look for people, Sedum will take someone to rescue the sister-in-law." ”
Li Yi sat on the chair in pain, his eyes were red, but he had to nod.
Li Weiqing asked: "Is this Zhao Feiran credible?"
Helian Tao replied, "It's more credible." It's just that he shouldn't show up for the time being, after all, the eldest lady in the house is the daughter of the Zhao family, and it is unknown if there is anything greasy in this. ”
And when they had finished speaking, they went about their own business. Li Shuci asked Mei Bai: "What special things have happened in this house these days?"
Mei Bai told her about the Lan family's mother and son competing with Zhao Ziru for favor, as well as Pang Zi's illness, the murder of Xu and the maidservant, etc., Li Shuci was stunned and said, "Xu's silver taels were not found in the end?"
"Not really. Mei Bai obviously didn't take this matter to heart, she said: "An aunt of the Xu family, even if she saves some selfishness, she may not have much silver, the maidservant can see it, others may not be able to see it, and the second lady is a gold owner, how can she bother to find silver for the Xu family, not to mention that the Xu family has become like that, how can she take care of finding silver, and this matter will pass." ”
Li Shuci was surprised, although there may not be much silver, but the whereabouts of the thieves are the biggest key to the whole thing. But the most important part was overlooked.
