Chapter 57: Misunderstanding
Jia Min didn't know that her husband had been taken care of, and she was now busy enlightening her friend Jiayue County Lord.
It turned out that on the third day of Jia Min's residence in the eldest princess's mansion, she was eating bird's nest with Jiayue, when she saw Jiayue's eldest maid Qiushuang hurriedly coming in, and there was still anger on her face!
"What's going on?" Jiayue asked.
Qiushuang bit her lip and hesitated without speaking, and Jia Min got up to avoid it when she saw this.
"Don't go," Jiayue said: "I have been sisters with Min'er for many years, and I don't hide anything from her, you can say it!" β
Qiushuang gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, and told the matter as it was.
Today, Qiushuang was ordered by Jiayue to go to Qiwei Zhai to buy snacks. I didn't know, but I happened to meet Jiayue's fiancΓ©, Wu Shaojun, the eldest son of the left prime minister Wu family. Wu Shaojun looks mediocre, but he is better than a person, polite and courteous, he is eighteen years old and has already won the move, and he is a famous talent in the capital. Qiushuang saw Wu Shaojun and was about to go to the ceremony, but before she could step forward, she saw Wu Shaojun get down from the carriage, followed by two girls, one was a young beauty with a veil, and the other was obviously her maid. The veiled girl didn't know if she didn't pay attention when she got off the carriage or what's wrong, she suddenly rushed forward, and saw that she was about to fall, Wu Shaojun hurriedly reached out to help, but hugged the girl. Although Wu Shaojun immediately let go of the girl with the veil, looking at the girl's shy appearance, anyone would doubt the relationship between the two.
Qiushuang followed them quietly, they bought snacks, Wu Shaojun watched the girl get into the car, and after the carriage left, he went elsewhere alone. Qiushuang didn't believe that Wu Shaojun would empathize with him, not to mention that there were still twenty days before he and the county lord of Jiayue were going to get married.
So, Qiushuang went to Zuo Xiang's Mansion to inquire about the girl's identity. As a result, it was okay not to ask, but when I inquired, I almost Qiu Yue to death. She ran back to the eldest princess's mansion in a huff, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, it was not worth it to be wronged for the county lord of her family.
"Tell me, what is the identity of that woman?" Jiayue asked a little nervously, she had already guessed, and she wanted to hear Qiushuang tell her the truth.
"That girl is the daughter of Mrs. Wu's sister, and she has been married to the eldest prince of Wu, although she has not made up her mind, but she has also exchanged tokens. Now that they have found it, the Wu family can't retire from the county lord, so they plan to wait for the county lord to pass the door and let the girl marry the eldest son of Wu as a wife. β
"I ...... It's too much of a bully, I'm going to tell my father and mother to go, I'm ...... I'm not married! Jiayue was already crying at this time, leaning on Jia Min's shoulder, and was about to turn her back on it.
Jia Min anxiously patted Jiayue's back to smooth her breath, while not forgetting to ask Qiushuang, "Have you heard of these words?" β
"The slave maid heard from a mother-in-law in the Zuo Xiang's mansion who watched the second door, and I used to see her when I accompanied the young lady to visit Mrs. Wu."
"Jiayue, don't worry, I think this is very strange." Jia Min was relieved when she saw that Jiayue was relieved, and began to analyze the whole thing carefully.
"Qiushuang is the most towards me, and she has always been a steady one, and since she said it, she must not be fake." Jia Min saw that Jiayue was on the tip of the horns, so he patiently analyzed her anger.
"Qiushuang, calm down first, and think about it, did that Miss Cousin of the Wu family really accidentally fall? Is there anything special? β
Qiushuang was also afraid that it would make a mistake and affect the marriage of the county lord, so she calmed down and thought about it carefully, "There is nothing, if you insist on saying that there is, that the maid seems to have seen me." β
"Have you seen that maid before?" Jia Min asked.
"It's a little familiar, it seems that a second-class maid serving by Mrs. Wu's side, I don't remember what it's called."
"That's weird, it stands to reason that you are Jiayue's personal maid, and the maid next to Mrs. Wu must know you, why didn't she say hello when she saw you?"
Jiayue listened to Jia Min's words, stopped crying, and frowned: "That's right! No matter how I say that I am about to marry into the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, how can that maid see you and not make a sound, this is not taking me seriously! β
"Qiushuang, how did you meet the mother-in-law who watched the second door?" Jia Min asked again.
"Coincidentally, the slave was worried that she couldn't find anyone to inquire, so the woman came out of the corner gate and came to say hello when she saw me." Autumn Frost Road.
Jia Min sneered: "This woman's behavior is normal, but it's too coincidental!" Did you ask her what she was doing when she left the house? β
"Oh, I asked casually, and she said that her man was sick, and she begged his wife to come home and take a look."
Jia Min thought about the whole thing again, and then said to the county lord Jiayue: "Jiayue, don't make trouble with the eldest princess first." Whether this is right or wrong, you must listen to what the person concerned has to say, you write a letter to the eldest prince of Wu, find a suitable person to send it, invite him to gather at the Zhenyu Fang tomorrow, put the matter out and tell him, and see what kind of attitude he has. β
Jiayue also felt that what Jia Min said was reasonable, so she immediately repaired the book and sent it to Wu Shaojun.
In the afternoon of the next day, Jia Min had just taken a nap and was washing, when Jiayue jumped into Jia Min's bedroom.
"Look at you like this, you know it's raining and it's clear." Jia Min smiled.
"Yes! Let me tell you, this cousin is actually a girl from Wu's cousin's family, and his cousin is a local magistrate, who went to Beijing to report to live in their house. Yesterday he was about to go out, the cousin pestered and said that he wanted to go out for a walk and wanted to buy some special pastries in the capital, Wu Dagongzi couldn't wear his face and took it to Qiwei Zhai, and later, in order to avoid suspicion, Wu Dagongzi let the carriage send them back first, and he rented a carriage to visit friends. β
"Then did you tell him about the maid and the mother-in-law?"
"Of course! Wu Dagongzi was angry, said sorry for me, sent me to the door, and left with a black face. β
When Jia Min heard this, he felt that this eldest son Wu was very measured, so he put his mind at ease.
Before dinner, Mrs. Wu and Wu Shaojun came to the eldest princess's mansion and explained the whole thing to the eldest princess and the concubine. It turned out that the cousin girl was greedy for the prosperity of the capital and the wealth of the Zuo Xiangfu, so she came up with such an idea, wanting to force this Jiayue to agree to her marrying into the Zuo Xiangfu, and the maid and the woman were all bought by her, and let her brother's little servant stare in front of the eldest princess's mansion.
Mrs. Wu listened to Wu Shaojun's words, and drove her cousin's family out without saying a word.
Jia Min later said to Jiayue: "Jiayue, you are straightforward and too simple, so it is easy to be deceived and taken advantage of." In the future, when living with the eldest son of Wu, husband and wife should trust each other. If there is anything difficult, just tell Wu Dagongzi directly, Wu Dagongzi has a good character and is steady, if you get along with him, you will definitely be happy with Mei. β
