Chapter 2 Hearing is false
The night is deep, and the carved green screen door is shrouded in the bright moonlight, which looks peaceful and quiet.
Jiang Ru bowed his head slightly at Ah Man, and said softly: "Go ahead." β
Ah Man got the order, took out a key from the purse on his waist, and stepped forward to open the lock lightly.
With a slight turn of the key, the door lock makes a slight click and it opens.
Aman's palm holding the key was already wet, and he breathed a sigh of relief and felt his heart beating like thunder.
Seeing this, Jiang seemed to show a faint smile.
Not long ago, she instructed Ah Man to have a drink with the mother-in-law who was in charge of the keys to the second door, and when the mother-in-law drank too much, she took the opportunity to find the key and make a mark on the prepared several pieces of fragrant pancreas, and took it outside to make a few new keys.
It's just that whether the key made in this way can open the door lock depends on luck, but fortunately, one of the five keys can finally be opened.
Ah Man pushed the door open little by little, his eyes lit up: "Girl-"
At this time, I suddenly heard a squeak, which was particularly harsh in the night when I heard the birds and insects chirping.
The master and servant looked at each other, and they both saw the horror in each other's eyes.
Jiang seemed to react quickly, dragged Ah Man to lower his body, and saw the mother-in-law guarding the door coming out, rubbing her eyes and walking towards the latrine, without even looking this way.
Jiang seemed to be busy drilling through the side door, and Ah Man followed closely behind, gently closing the door.
After the false alarm, Ah Man showed a happy smile: "It's so dangerous! β
Jiang seemed to have sorted out his mood and said lightly: "Don't say more, go quickly." β
The master and servant walked along the corner of the wall, and after walking for about a cup of tea, Jiang seemed to stop suddenly.
Ah Man looked around, a little dazed: "Girl, how can we get out?" β
She can manage to get the key to open the second door, but the door will not be, and there is no reason for the girl's personal maid to find the old man in the porter to eat and drink.
"Follow me." Jiang seemed to bypass a clump of flowers and trees, bent down to remove the lush grass at the corner of the wall, and suddenly revealed a hole.
Ah Man's eyes widened suddenly: "Girl, why is there a hole here?" β
Jiang didn't seem to answer, but leaned over and got out of the hole, being blown by the night breeze outside the mansion, looking up at the night sky for a moment.
At that time, her brother Jiang Zhan was an unlearned person in her eyes, she had always ignored him, and once I happened to see him crawling out of this hole, obviously sneaking out to play.
She only sneered at the time, and looked down on him more and more, and she didn't even bother to tell the steward to close the hole.
In her opinion, her brother is the mud that can't support the wall, and there is no need to save it, so it is better to hide away and try to be quiet.
But Jiang Zhan died in the autumn after she left the cabinet, and when she heard the bad news, she realized that she would also be sad.
The brother who brought her the rose lotus paste he bought from the street after being whipped by his father is gone.
"Girl-" Ah Man, who came out of the hole, saw that Jiang seemed to be distracted, and shouted softly.
Jiang seemed to retract his thoughts and laughed at himself.
At that time, she was really blinded by lard, and no matter how outstanding the second uncle's cousin was, she would not give her rose lotus paste cake.
"Let's go." Jiang seemed to have regained his composure, calculated the time, and walked quickly towards Moyu Lake with Ah Man.
Fortunately, the curfew was canceled in the current dynasty, and Moyu Lake and Dongpingbo Mansion were both in the west of the city, which provided great convenience for Jiang Xiang.
The master and servant hurried there, and by the bright moonlight, they saw a pair of figures standing by the lake.
Ah Man was shocked at the time, and lowered his voice and said, "Girl, there are really people!" β
Jiang seemed to be expressionless, pointing to a stubborn stone standing by the lake with the three big characters "Mowei Lake" written on it.
The stone was more than half a foot high, and it was more than enough for a person to hide behind the stone.
Ah Man understood, and followed Jiang as if hiding there.
Jiang seemed to hold the stone wall with his hand, and there was a faint warmth in his palm, which was the heat accumulated by the stone wall during the day that had not yet dissipated.
Soon there was a sobbing sound blowing along the wind by the lake, and Jiang seemed to be unable to help but look over.
The moonlight is bright, clearly illuminating the appearance of the two.
The man is thin, nearly a head taller than the woman, and it is Jiang's fiancΓ© Ji Chongyi.
Jiang's gaze swept over Ji Chongyi's handsome face and landed on the woman's face.
She has always been curious about what the woman who can make Ji Chongyi guard his newlywed wife like a flower and jade but never touch it looks like.
When she got married, the woman was no longer alive, and she didn't get a chance to see her face until tonight.
The woman is petite, and under the willow eyebrows are a pair of big eyes with fog, and although she is bathed in the moonlight, she can still see that her complexion is not fair.
Jiang Yi's mood was a little complicated in an instant.
In all fairness, this woman can be regarded as a small jasper with clear eyebrows, but there is still a big gap between her and the top beauties, and she later heard that this private girl has not read any books......
Jiang Yi's eyes moved to Ji Chongyi's face again, and seeing the real pain and anxiety on his face, he had to admit that she had lost to true love.
"Yi Lang, you, go home quickly, it's late, if you are discovered, it will be troublesome." The woman lowered her head, her voice choked.
Ji Chongyi stretched out his hand to support the woman's shoulders, and his tone was excited: "I'm not leaving." Qiao Niang, don't you know that I am about to get married? The family is already strictly watched, and I'm afraid I'll never see you again before I get married......"
Jiang Ru's eyes suddenly turned cold.
It turned out that Ji Chongyi's sweetheart was called Qiao Niang.
No wonder Ah Qiao came in to serve her on the second day after they got married, and when she shouted "Ah Qiao", Ji Chongyi's eyes were like knives, and then he brushed his sleeves away, and it was too late to even serve tea.
Duchess Anguo, that is, her mother-in-law, naturally does not blame her son, but thinks that she does not know how to be polite, and it is very difficult to do it for her when serving tea.
Qiao Niang smiled sadly: "What if you don't leave now?" Yi Lang, you always have to go home, what difference does it make to us at one o'clock in the morning and one o'clock in the evening? As for the future...... Now that you're married, treat your wife well, forget me, I, I'll forget youβ"
Ji Chongyi suddenly covered Qiao Niang's mouth, and his voice raised: "I don't allow it!" β
"Yi Lang-" Qiao Niang turned her face away, tears streaming down her face.
Jiang seemed to look at it coldly and began to get nervous.
Looking at this posture, the two of them are going to be martyred, right?
Hopefully everything will go well next......
"Qiao Niang, why don't we elope!" Ji Chongyi's mood was high, he held Qiao Niang's hand and walked out.
Qiao Niang struggled and shook her head: "Yi Lang, calm down, elopement will definitely not work-"
Ji Chongyi turned around suddenly, lowered his head and blocked the other party's mouth with his lips.
Ah Man covered his mouth and gasped, so angry that he tugged at Jiang Ru's sleeve.
Jiang seemed to be indifferent, thinking about the actions that the two should take after the martyrdom.
The two kissed to the emotional place, except for the increasingly rapid gasping sound, there was no more speech, and they fell back step by step, followed by a loud thud.
Jiang couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
Hey? It's not the same as saying yes!
