Chapter 264: People vs. People, Exploitation and Being Used
Mitsuki walked through the courtyard and came to a secluded corner.
It was a place where a group of maids and grandmothers gathered, some of them busily sorting their clothes, others chatting.
Mitsuki walked up to them, smiled slightly, and then began to convey to them the general's wife's explanation.
Her voice was clear and powerful, allowing everyone present to hear her.
The maids and grandmothers listened carefully to Miyue's communication, nodding their heads from time to time.
Suddenly, Mama Liu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Miyue, what I want to say is that Madame must have her reasons for doing this, but if this thing is really done, then it will not be easy for this general's mansion to save its reputation in the future."
Although others also felt the same way, they were not as courageous as Mama Liu, and everyone did not say it directly.
After Miyue heard this, she couldn't help but think about it, as if it was really going on.
Originally, she thought this matter was a little strange, so wouldn't it be a thankless thing to do in this way?
Miyue thought about it for a while, then nodded and said, "Otherwise, don't talk about it yet, I'll go and confirm with Madame."
She quickly ran to Shu Zhihan's room.
Seeing that she seemed to be very anxious, Shu Zhihan couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"What's the matter, looking at your nervous look, could it be that something is wrong?"
Miyue hesitated again and again, and then said, "Miss, I think this matter is still inappropriate, I don't know what you are doing this for, but I think it must have something to do with that chickweed, but have you ever thought that it is really worth it to lose the face and reputation of the General's Mansion because of her?"
In this case, it may also have a bad impact on the general, and maybe the news of the general's absence in the palace will be spread."
When Shu Zhihan heard what she said, she felt a burst of relief in her heart.
What she didn't expect was that Mitsuki had really grown up and knew how to think about so many things.
"It's true that I didn't think about this matter, and I thought about it just now, and there is a better way."
"What is it?"
Mitsuki sat down quickly, then put her hands on her cheeks, as if waiting to listen carefully.
"Miss, what's the solution?"
"That is, if you find someone to spread the news that I am pregnant, I think, in this way, I must get twice the result with half the effort."
At this moment, Miyue couldn't help it, so she asked, "Miss, I don't understand, why did you do this?"
"Silly girl, I don't know this, think about it carefully, isn't it a little strange that Chickweed knew about it in the first place? Think about it."
After her reminder, Miyue immediately thought about it carefully.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up, "Yes, Miss, you're right.
I remember that no one should know that the general had left the border city, let alone that he had gone to the Ming capital, at least no one in the general's mansion would know.
So, how did this chickweed know?
And then there's it, when she talks about you, it's like ...... reading a book."
Shu Zhihan looked at her as if she was a little embarrassed, so she smiled and said, "Okay, I know what you mean, but it's actually nothing.
Your young lady went back to Mingjing City this time, and something did happen, but fortunately, with her husband, it was all resolved.
It's just that she can know all these things, and it seems that the person behind her is really unusual."
Hearing this, Miyue suddenly understood that a lot of things had happened when her young lady returned to Mingjing City this time.
"But, miss, if you spread the news that you are pregnant, what if someone with a heart causes harm?
You said it yourself, there must be someone behind that chickweed, so if she runs back again, that again
What should I do?"
Shu Zhihan gently touched her head, "Silly girl, I'm not afraid that she won't come, I'm afraid that she won't come."
As she spoke, she slowly stood up, twisted her body slightly, and then said, "Miyue, I'm a little tired, I want to take a break, I also want to eat the pastries you made, you can help me make some, okay?"
As soon as she heard that she wanted to eat, Miyue nodded excitedly and said, "Well, okay, Miss, then you can take a break, and I'll make it for you."
After speaking, she helped Shu Zhihan to the bed, covered her with a quilt, and then turned around and left the room.
The news that the general's wife was pregnant quickly spread through the streets and alleys like wings in an instant.
In this moment, the whole world seems to become one, full of life and endless hope. And this news, like a bright color in the ancient style, adds endless charm and vividness to the whole story.
The people in the streets and alleys are talking about this exciting news.
Their faces were full of blessings and expectations, and they were also full of longing for the future of the General's Mansion.
But some people are questioning, it seems that they haven't seen the general visit to the church, why is this lady pregnant?
All of a sudden, all sorts of voices spread in the streets.
Chickweed is wandering around the garden, admiring the blooming flowers in the garden.
Suddenly, she felt someone watching her, and she turned her head to see that it was a man in black.
"What's wrong?" Chickweed asked.
"There's news about Shu Zhihan." The man in black said expressionlessly.
Chickweed's heart chuckled, and she had a sense of foreboding.
"She's pregnant." The man said again.
Chickweed felt dizzy, and her heart felt like it had been hit with a hammer, and the pain was unbearable.
"How is that possible?" Chickweed said, as if she didn't believe it at all.
"People outside are talking about it right now." The man in black said.
"What should we do?" Chickweed asked, but she knew there was no answer to the question.
But the man said, "It's not us, it's you, you should think about what you should do.
If you can't even deal with this matter, then how can you replace Luo Jinyu with you.
However, it seems that your general is not aware of this news, so you can think about what to do next."
The man in black turned around and left as he spoke.
Chickweed had no interest in continuing to watch, and stood up and paced back and forth in place.
Why do you say you are pregnant at this time?
And when did she come back, since the general doesn't know yet, does that mean they didn't come back together?
Chickweed turned to look in the direction the man in black had left, and couldn't help but think of how he had first met.
He told himself that Peng Yu was not dead.
When Chickweed heard the news, her first reaction was not joy, but consternation.
In the past, she seemed to have always been a follower of Peng Yu, if she came back, then, does it mean that she has to live that life again?
Chickweed kept herself calm, for the time being, what the man in black said had not been confirmed, after all, he had not really seen Peng Yu.
After thinking about it, she wanted to go back to the general's mansion, so what she needed to do now was not to find trouble with Shu Zhihan, but to find Luo Jinyu.
With this decision in mind, she got up and went back to her room.
Looking at the scenery along the road, there were still doubts in her heart, who was this man in black?
What is his purpose?
What do you have that he can take advantage of?
In her view, there is benefit between people
With the relationship with the utilized.
It's like if she wants to catch Luo Jinyu, it's just that she wants to be able to have a worry-free future for the rest of her life.
She doesn't look like her own sister, and she really prays for the general's love, isn't it nonsense?
Chickweed shook her head, thinking to herself that maybe when she found Pengyu, maybe all her doubts would be solved.
Thinking of this, Chickweed hurried back to pack her things, and simply took her clothes and coils with her and planned to leave.
When I walked into the courtyard, I saw the man in black standing outside.
"Are you trying to stop me?"
Chickweed said expressionlessly, she had no fear of the cold man in front of her, and looked at him with wide eyes.
"Eat this."
Chickweed looked at one of the pills in his hand and couldn't help frowning.
I don't know what it is, but it's definitely not going to be a good thing.
"You're trying to use this to control me?"
The man in black couldn't help but sneer, "Yes, it's a lot smarter than your sister, but it's ......."
"But what?"
Chickweed's heart tightened, but it wasn't because she was nervous about her sister, but because she was afraid of learning from him that she was inferior to her.
"It seems that your desire to win is still quite strong, if you were the first person I met, maybe everything would be different now."
"Where is my sister now?"
Chickweed frowned slightly, unsure if he would tell himself the truth.
"Why, is this trying to stage a sisterhood? Don't worry, you'll see each other sooner or later, so let's eat this first."
Chickweed pinched the pill between his hands, stared at him with her eyes and asked, "If you don't tell me what this is, I won't eat it."
Even if I had to die, at least I would know how to die."
Hahahahaha......
The man in black laughed for a while, "Yes, I really like it, then I might as well tell you, this is poison, you need to take the antidote once a month, otherwise, you will ulcerate and die."
Of course, you don't have to bother to find someone to cure this poison for you, there is no one in this world who can solve it except me."
