Chapter 139: Response

"It really scared me a lot." Li Yuyuan said.

Everyone agreed.

That moment just now really scared them a lot.

"Come, Miss Cen, Miss Zhu, drink a cup of tea and change your skirt again." Li Yuyuan picked up her cup of tea on the table and said to Cen Ziman and Zhu Xinlan.

The tea was just served, everyone had just spoken, had eaten some snacks, and were a little thirsty, plus they were taken aback, and they really needed to drink a cup of hot tea to ease their senses; Li Yuyuan said this, Cen Ziman and Zhu Xinlan also have to give face. The two didn't think much about it, picked up the tea on the table, drank most of the cup, and then got up to change their skirts.

Xia Jin had the intention to remind Cen Ziman, but the interval between the medicine and the tea was very short, everyone gathered around Cen Ziman to be courteous, and the place where she was sitting was far away from Cen Ziman, and it was too late to walk over and squeeze to Cen Ziman's side to stop her.

And you have to do it quietly to stop the reminder. Xia Jin didn't want to get into trouble for himself in order to help others. There are still ten or twenty days before Cen Ziman is about to leave Linjiang City, but Li Yuyuan's family is a land-sitting household in Linjiang City. The Xia family has no background and backers, and it is not difficult for the Li family to pinch Xia Jin to death, or even to do anything in the imperial examination to prevent Xia Qi from gaining fame.

All Xia Jin can do now is to prepare some medicine and help Cen Ziman when she is unwell. For the rest, she couldn't do it.

Shen Yufang saw that Cen Ziman was going to change clothes, so she quickly stood up and said, "Miss Cen and Miss Zhu, I'll accompany you." ”

She is the main family, Cen Ziman and Zhu Xinlan want to find a place to change clothes, so she naturally has to accompany her.

Cen Ziman nodded, but did not leave immediately, but turned around. Yao Yao beckoned to Xia Jin: "Miss Xia, you can accompany me to change clothes." ”

If Cen Ziman hadn't called Xia Jin, Xia Jin planned to stop Cen Ziman's maid Xue'er, tell her what had just happened, and hand her a small porcelain vase in her arms, just in case she needed it.

But Cen Ziman has not forgotten her friend until now, so she is naturally obliged to follow Cen Ziman. Take care of the troubles for her.

"Oh. Good. She stood up and walked to Cen Ziman's side amid everyone's envious gaze.

"Yuting, you take everyone out for a walk." Shen Yufang confessed to Shen Yuting. Only then did he take Cen Ziman and the three out of the door.

The four of them walked out from under the porch with the maids, and they saw a group of boys sitting or standing under a gazebo, not knowing what they were talking about. Xia Jin found it sharp-eyed. The only people who entertained everyone there were Luo Chen, the second son of Luofu, Luo Yu, the eldest son, and Luo Qian, the third son. Nowhere to be seen.

Thinking of the Luofu maid who changed the teacup just now, and then thinking of Luo Yu who played the piano and chanted poetry in the peach grove that day, Xia Jin had a ridiculous feeling in her heart: Things won't be what she imagined, right?

Zhu Xinlan didn't find Luo Qian in the group of boys, and her face was full of disappointment. And Shen Yufang couldn't help but have a flash of light in her eyes when she saw Su Muxian, who was dressed as a noble son and hugged in the middle by everyone's stars.

When they came out just now, Shen Yufang and Zhu Xinlan walked beside Cen Ziman alone, taking advantage of their stunned moments at this time. Xia Jin walked behind Cen Ziman and pulled her sleeve. I threw her another look.

Although Cen Ziman didn't know what Xia Jin meant, he still took two steps back and followed Xia Jin to the side.

"Do you feel unwell in any way?" Xia Jin asked in a low voice.

Cen Ziman was stunned, felt his body, his face changed suddenly, and said to Xia Jin: "My stomach hurts a little." ”

Xia Jin nodded: "Don't go with Miss Shen for a while, I suspect that there is a conspiracy here." ”

Cen Ziman was surprised, and was about to ask again, when he heard Shen Yufang's voice sounding next to him: "Miss Cen, what are you talking to Miss Xia?" ”

Cen Ziman turned his head and smiled at her: "I found that I didn't bring my clothes here." You're shorter than me, and I can't wear your clothes. But Xia's house is not far from here, I have clothes there, I think I'd better go to Xia's house to change clothes. ”

Without waiting for Shen Yufang to express his position, he pulled Xia Jin to turn around and leave.

"Hey, Miss Cen......" Shen Yufang wanted to say more, but saw Cen Ziman walking fast, and walked out after a while, without giving her a chance to speak.

"This, this...... What's wrong with her? Shen Yufang turned her head and asked Zhu Xinlan puzzled.

You must know that when the ladies attend a banquet, there are always things like accidentally soiling their dresses or spilling tea, so when they come, they will ask the maid to bring a dress to prepare. Just now, Shen Yufang saw a mother-in-law in Xuanping Houfu following behind with a bag. What Cen Ziman said just now is obviously a pretext.

Zhu Xinlan was worried about Luo Qian, thinking that she wanted to go to the back house of Luo's mansion, maybe she could meet Luo Qian, she was excited, she didn't care about Cen Ziman and Xia Jin's departure, and said perfunctorily: "Maybe she has her considerations." Let's go, you take me to change my clothes. ”

Shen Yufang couldn't, so she had to take Zhu Xinlan to the back house.

Cen Ziman followed Xia Jin out, until she was sure that she was far away from Shen Yufang, and there was no one else around except Xue'er, Calamus and the mother-in-law holding the clothes, she asked softly, "What happened just now?" ”

Xia Jin told Cen Ziman what she had observed.

Cen Ziman was taken aback: "The Luo family is trying to calculate me?" After thinking about it for a while, a wave of anger floated brightly on his face.

The three sons of the Luo family, one of them are two talents, and they are of good character, they never go out of the place of fireworks, and they do not make trouble about the absurd things of the cashier's concubine and the maidservant, so in Linjiang City, even Luo Yu and Luo Chen, who are concubines, are also the ideal objects for the official eunuchs to marry.

But such conditions, compared with those noble children in the capital, are completely inadequate. Not to mention anything else, Luo Weitao's own identity alone cannot be put on the stage in the eyes of the nobles. The only ones who are willing to marry them are those petty official families with shallow roots in the capital.

Therefore, even if Mrs. Luo will treat Luo Qian as a rare treasure, and she has a relationship with Mrs. Xuanping Hou, she still doesn't dare to ask to marry Cen Ziman in front of her.

Although Cen Ziman herself does not have such a deep opinion, she does not have any unusual feelings for Luo Qian. Therefore, he was extremely angry that Luo Fu dared to plot against him, and pulled Xia Jin and walked out quickly: "Let's go, go to my grandmother." Dare to plot against me like this, it really ate the leopard's guts! ”

Xia Jin grabbed her: "What do you think of your stomach?" Does it hurt? ”

Cen Ziman blinked, felt the sensation in his body, and shook his head at Xia Jin: "It's still the faint feeling just now, I don't feel very painful." ”

"Since it doesn't hurt very much, and this medicine is given by Li Yuyuan, is it really okay for you to go to your grandmother to make trouble in Luofu at this time?"

Cen Ziman was stunned for a moment and thought for a while: "It's the same." ”

She turned to Xia Jin: "What do you say?" ”

Xia Jin's eyes fell on the mother-in-law who was following behind with his clothes, but he didn't spit out at all: "I don't know." Why don't you come to my house first and change your clothes, and then think about it? ”

Cen Ziman followed Xia Jin's gaze, and when he saw the mother-in-law, his eyes suddenly lit up.

The mother-in-law of Xuanping Houfu has never been a simple role. Some of them were brought over by Mrs. Xuanpinghou from her parents' family, and some were the wives of veterans who went to war with Xuanpinghou, all of them had a little effort in their hands, and they were unambiguous in handling things.

"You wait." She said to Xia Jin, walked up to the woman, and muttered to her for a while. The woman nodded, put the bag in Cher's arms, and turned away.

"Let's find a place to stay." Cen Ziman walked to Xia Jin's side, and his expression was obviously relaxed.

Xia Jin also relaxed.

Luo Weitao, Mrs. Luo and Luo Qian She have all been in contact, in her opinion, even if Luo Weitao and his wife wanted Luo Qian to marry Cen Ziman, they would not be so brain-dead, take such a big risk, make such a calculation, and plot against Cen Ziman. This is not a marriage, this is obviously a feud, if one is not good, Luofu will be crushed into scum, and the future of Luo Weitao and his three sons will be ruined.

The most likely person to do this is Aunt Zhang or Luo Yu herself. They got Cen Ziman's body through secret calculations, and even if the Cen family was unwilling, they could only let Cen Ziman marry Luo Yu. Married to the daughter of Houfu and the granddaughter of the Queen Mother, what kind of future does Luo Yu want? And Aunt Zhang's side, in the future, she will hold a banquet in Linjiang City, and she may have a place. No matter how favored the new concubine is, she can't threaten her status, and she can even be on an equal footing with Mrs. Luo.

In this matter, it is inconvenient for her to act as Xia Jin. She can neither walk around in Luofu, nor can she help Luo Qian get ahead at critical moments. And just walked away, she was afraid that Luo Qian would follow Aunt Zhang and Luo Yu's way. You know, at this time, there are still two brain-dead girls in Luofu, Zhu Xinlan and Li Yuyuan.

Now that the mother-in-law of Luofu is going to deal with this matter, she is also relieved.

"Let's go this way, out of here is the corner gate of Luofu, and there are few people guarding the door." Xia Jin pointed to the path next to him and said to Cen Ziman.

"Huh? That's great. Cen Ziman was very happy.

She originally planned not to leave Luofu, but as soon as she went out, someone would report to the people of Luofu, and once she startled the snake, Mama Tang who had just gone over would not be able to catch the evidence.

But for her Qingyu, it is better to go to Xia's house to change clothes than to stay in Luofu. Now when you go out from the corner gate and stun the gatekeeper, you don't know it, but you have the best of both worlds.

The two of them walked down the path, but they didn't meet anyone along the way. When he arrived at the corner gate, before Xia Jin could react, Cen Ziman landed with his fist and knocked the middle-aged man who was guarding unconscious.

Xia Jin: "......"

"Let's go, let's go and get back quickly. Luo Mansion will definitely be in trouble for a while. Cen Ziman was completely free of panic and anger at this time, and his face was full of excitement when he saw the excitement. (To be continued)

ps: Because there is a recommendation, it was supposed to be added. But I was worried that I wouldn't be able to code it out in time, so I didn't dare to announce it.
