Chapter 130: The house leak happened to rain overnight
Yue's sensational lies frightened An Guogong into a cold sweat, "No wonder I haven't done anything well these days, it turns out that this is the reason!" You hurry up and find a way to get that person away, you can't let him leave his bad luck in the house. ”
Yue Shi got the answer he wanted to hear, and his heart was happy, but his face was embarrassed.
"Don't you want to be a concubine? But after all, it was Sister Jiang's brother, and An Yueli personally brought it into the house. If she puts on the princess's stand to press me, the concubine can't stand this reproach. ”
An Guogong shouted angrily: "This is my mansion, and it is not her turn to have the final say." ”
But after saying this, he remembered Su Huaixiao's terrifying face again, and even his butt ached faintly.
"Don't you have a lot of ideas, find a way to let the man go on his own! I must hurry up on this matter, and I must not let bad luck affect my career! ”
Yue Shi agreed, but in his heart he quietly despised An Guogong's attitude of bullying the soft and fearing the hard.
In the next two days, no one on the Zhefeng Hall side went to look for stubble, and everything seemed to be calm.
Mrs. Jiang would take the maids to sit for a while every afternoon to relieve homesickness from getting along with her relatives.
Just after noon that day, the sky was covered with dark clouds.
Seeing that it was about to be stormy, An Yueli hurriedly said goodbye to Jiang Zhan and took Mrs. Jiang back to Beiyuan with Yahuan. When they stepped into the house with their front feet, it began to rain heavily on their back feet.
Huansha sighed while instructing Chasing Moon to close the doors and windows: "Fortunately, we came back in time, otherwise we would really be drenched in soup." With such a heavy rain, I'm afraid it won't fall until the second half of the night. ”
An Yueli glanced at the dark and oppressive sky outside the window and counted the months.
"Autumn is coming soon, and it's another flood season. This year's summer was exceptionally hot and dry, and it suddenly rained so heavily, but I am afraid it is not good news. ”
Chasing Yue answered with a smile, "The slave maid thinks it's good to rain, and everyone stays in the house honestly, so as not to make trouble again from Mrs. Yue's side." ”
The rainy day was humid, and a few maids couldn't go out and walk, so they simply gathered around to embroider and chat. After nightfall, everyone went to bed early.
In the second half of the night, An Yueli was suddenly awakened by a knock on the door.
"Princess, princess!"
She heard that it was Huansha's voice, and simply turned over neatly.
When she opened the door with the candle, she saw the other party standing at the door soaking wet, and even the floating smoke and chasing the moon and colorful clouds had become soup chickens.
"What happened? How did you do this? ”
Huansha hurriedly explained: "The house of the slave and the others suddenly leaked. I was about to come out to check the situation, but I noticed a dark shadow passing in front of my wife's room. We chased after it, but the shadow ran over the wall. ”
An Yueli tensed her heartstrings, "Mother is okay!?" ”
"Don't worry, the princess, the lady is fine, and there are no problems in the house."
As he was talking, he saw Mrs. Jiang coming briskly from the floating smoke.
"Yueli!"
"Mother is awake?" An Yueli greeted her, and explained in advance without waiting for the other party to speak, "Don't worry, it's just that the wind is too strong to blow over the tiles on the roof of Huansha, it's not a big deal." ”
Several maids from the palace guessed that she didn't want Mrs. Jiang to worry, so they hurriedly agreed.
"yes, it's just a little rain, it's out of the way."
"It's damp outside, Madame, let's go back to the room and rest."
Mrs. Jiang looked at the embarrassed appearance of several people who were drenched and asked, very surprised.
"What kind of rain is it leaking to get drenched like this?"
Before Huansha could explain clearly, she heard a quick knock on the door.
Everyone looked at the courtyard gate in unison, and Caiyun, who was the least courageous, shuddered.
"It's so late, who will come to Beiyuan?"
An Yueli's eyebrows furrowed, and she personally took an umbrella to check.
In this kind of windy and rainy weather, the lanterns are not used, and Huansha can only take a fire fold to guide the way in front.
"Who is it?"
A familiar voice came from outside the courtyard gate.
"It's me, Jiang Zhan."
An Yueli opened the door lock and saw that Jiang Zhan didn't bring an umbrella, and stood in the rain in embarrassment. And he was holding a large pile of things wrapped in oiled paper in his arms, and he looked at the weight.
"Cousin, this is ......"
"My house is broken, and many precious books are soaked in water. I'm really lacking in skills alone, so I can only salvage these. Please lend me some manpower from the princess! ”
Seeing the anxious look on the other party's face, An Yueli decisively ordered.
"Huansha, go and call some family members to help!"
As soon as the words came out, Jiang Zhan refused repeatedly: "No, no!" Those books are too important for me to trust anyone else. ”
Xu knew that his words sounded a bit pretentious and embarrassing, Jiang Zhan licked his lower lip awkwardly after speaking, and then solemnly bowed his hand to An Yueli.
"Please also ask the princess for help!"
"Cousin, what are you doing?"
An Yueli dragged the other party's arm and commanded without hesitation.
"Caiyun and Fuyan stayed behind to take care of their mother, Huansha and Chasing Moon followed their cousin to Zhefeng Hall first, and I arrived later."
"Yes!"
Several Yahuan worked together and quickly took action.
An Yueli ran back into the room, avoiding the eyes of others, and took a folded medical tent from the medical space. When she stuffed her things into the box and went out, Mrs. Jiang chased after her uneasily.
"Why don't I go with you, I'm afraid you don't have enough people."
"Not necessarily." An Yueli decisively refused, "Although my cousin is a relative, he is also a foreign man. Mother went to Tetsukado in the middle of the night, afraid that rumors would spread tomorrow. ”
Mrs. Jiang became anxious when she heard this, "Then you are also a woman, or Princess Xiao, in case those people chew the root of their tongues......"
"Who dares to chew the root of the prince's tongue, unless he really doesn't want to speak." An Yueli sneered, "Mother don't worry, with the prince in town, no one in the Yue clan dares to mess with me." ”
Without waiting for Mrs. Jiang to refute, she hurriedly told Fuyan and Caiyun again, and then hurriedly left with an umbrella.
When they came to Zhefeng Hall, Huansha and Chasing Moon had already helped rescue a lot of books. But there are a whole row of side rooms with varying degrees of water leakage, and even moving things to other rooms is in vain.
"Princess!"
Seeing An Yueli coming, Huansha touched the rain on her face.
"The rain was so heavy that there was a big hole in the roof, and there was really no way to do it."
Jiang Zhan was still hurrying to wrap the scattered scrolls with the only remaining oil paper, but his eyes were red because of the rain or because he was too distressed.
An Yueli glanced at the tragic situation in the house, and set up a medical tent in the courtyard without hesitation.
"Bring all the books here."
Jiang Zhan was directly dumbfounded when he watched her come up with such a strange thing as if she was doing a trick. And Huansha and Chasing the Moon have become accustomed to their master's ability to reach the sky, and they just followed the order after being stunned for a moment.
