Chapter 187: How to Explain the Blood on Your Body
"This ......," Jiang Shu hesitated slightly, "Shu'er heard that Shijingshan has beautiful scenery, pleasant spring colors, and very good scenery, so I can't help but want to go and see it, and ask my grandmother to forgive me." ”
"Then I wonder who our four girls are going with?" The second lady, Tang Rongqiu, stood up with an embroidered silk handkerchief, "Lord Huaishu came to our house this afternoon, and she was not with you. ”
"Back to Erniang, I'll go by myself." Although Jiang Shu didn't have any good feelings for the mother and daughter in the second room, he knew in his heart that in this case, he would only suffer a loss if he was tough with her, so he tried his best to keep his tone gentle.
Fortunately, before coming to Changhetang, Ping Qian had already asked the same thing, otherwise, in front of so many people, if he said that he went with Yu Jingrong, and then it was exposed, it would be a crime.
"I really can't see it, our four girls are usually weak, and they still have the courage to go out of the city alone." A cold light flashed in Tang Rongqiu's eyes, and he spoke again.
Jiang Shu couldn't hear the mockery in her tone, and smiled: "Shu'er used to be a little timid and weak, but since the emperor decreed marriage, he decided not to continue to be cowardly. Otherwise, when we come to King Fu's Mansion in the future, we won't even be able to run a simple housekeeper, wouldn't it be a joke to shame our Ye Mansion. Erniang, did you say? ”
In the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of Ye Hu's resentful look behind her, and the corners of her lips were gently hooked.
Get angry, get angry, it's better to be able to you off.
The second lady didn't expect that she would turn around and defeat herself, and she didn't know how to respond for a while, so she snorted lightly and sat back with an embroidered handkerchief.
The old lady's eyes swept over Jiang Shu's dirty skirt and messy bun, and she frowned unhappily: "When you go out of the city to see the scenery, why did you come back so late, and why did you look like this?" ”
Jiang Shu turned his head slightly to look at her, and said respectfully: "Back to grandmother, when Shu'er passed by a forest at the foot of Shijing Mountain, she accidentally fell into a trap hunted by hunters, so she was so embarrassed. It was because I had been trapped in it for so long that I came back late. ”
"I heard that most of the traps used for hunting are in the dense forest, and in order to prevent the prey from escaping, they dug at least one zhang deep, I don't know how the fourth sister came out?" Ye Xi, who was behind the fifth lady, asked softly.
The tone was tactful and full of concern, and on the surface it looked very concerned about her, but it pointed out two points bluntly: the trap is in the dense forest, and basically no one will go to it; Digging a foot deep, she can't get out at all with her own ability.
This is a hint that she is lying when she says that she has to go out alone.
Yesterday he flattered her in every possible way, and today he will create a crisis for her in turn.
Could it be that he offended her by her refusal last night?
Forget it, if you offend, you can offend, anyway, I never thought of befriending her, so it's a big deal to be careful with her in the future.
Thinking like this, Jiang Shu's eyes narrowed slightly: "Fifth Sister Xie cares, fortunately, there was a woman who chased the bad guy there at that time, found me in the trap, rescued me, and personally sent me into the city." ”
If she said that it was a man who saved her, maybe she would have to explain how to save her.
The old lady values the reputation of the Ye Mansion the most, and the mother and daughter in the second room will definitely take the opportunity to make a big fuss, and the mother and daughter in the fifth room may also see the stitches.
"Is that all?" Ye Huyu looked obviously disbelieving, raised his hand and pointed at her and said, "Then how do you explain the blood on your body?" ”
