Chapter 362 Adding Obstacles
Chapter 362 Adding Obstacles
Just arrived at the general's mansion.
Lu Heng came to report something important.
Jin Yuyao let him in.
Lu Heng bowed and said, "Madam."
Jin Yuyao looked at Lu Heng and asked, "What's the matter that's making you so anxious?"
Lu Heng said: "The general has been asking me to send people to keep an eye on the Yongcheng Palace for a while now, because he is afraid that they will harm the lady. Bai Yurou has been released these days.
I was afraid she would take revenge on you, so I didn't dare to delay in telling Madam."
Jin Yuyao was shocked and said, "She was released so soon. Does Bai Yurou have some skills?"
Lu Heng said, "It's because the Jinyi Huafu has earned some silver during this period. I heard that the Yongcheng Palace was short of silver, so Bai Yurou took out a thousand taels and the prince released her."
Jin Yuyao couldn't help but laugh and said, "It seems that the Yongcheng Palace has really reached the end of its rope."
Lu Heng handed his research to Jin Yuyao.
Jin Yuyao took it, took a look at it and said, "I see. Thank you, Lu Heng. You can go and do your work first."
Lu Heng retreated.
After reading them, Jin Yuyao placed them in a small box on her dressing table.
The Yongcheng Palace will surely be bustling with activity in the future. Bai Yurou's good days won't last long. She originally thought she had transformed from a sparrow into a phoenix, but her imagination was too rosy.
Jin Yuyao and Wenzhu walked around the street in the afternoon.
Unfortunately, I met Bai Yurou.
Bai Yurou smiled and looked at Jin Yuyao: "Madam General, you didn't expect me to be released so soon."
Jin Yuyao said with a smile: "He came out like this, he must have lost a lot of blood."
Bai Yurou said, "Then don't worry about it. You'd better be careful when I come out."
After saying this, she smiled and left with her maid.
Wen Zhu said, "She's so arrogant! I should catch up with her and drag her into an alley to give her a good beating. Seeing her face makes me want to do something."
Jin Yuyao said, "Why waste your energy? Someone will come and beat her up soon."
Wenzhu was a little confused and asked, "Who is it?"
"We'll know when the time comes."
Those who bought her cream should start showing symptoms soon.
I really want to see what Bai Yurou will do then?
Wenzhu saw that Jin Yuyao was not worried, so she thought that the lady must have a plan in mind.
Jin Yuyao walked on the street watching the vendors hawking their wares, feeling the atmosphere of life as she walked on the road lined with vendors on both sides.
Jin Yuyao saw a teahouse in front and said, "Wenzhu, are you tired? Let's go to the teahouse and have a cup of tea and rest."
Wenzhu said: "Okay,"
They went directly to the second floor of the teahouse.
Jin Yuyao went upstairs and ordered a pot of tea and some cakes.
She found a seat by the window.
She prefers me leaning against the window and watching people coming and going downstairs.
The waiter brought the tea and left.
Jin Yuyao was drinking tea beside her.
There are two ladies at the table next to us.
At the beginning, people talked about whose clothes were nice-looking and whose jewelry was novel.
At this time, a lady in green said, "Do you know that a concubine's daughter recently returned to the Wu Mansion?"
"Really? Then Wu Qiulian will have a hard time in the future."
"Just because she's a concubine shouldn't have any impact on her, right?"
"That's wrong. I went to Wu Qiulian's house the other day and saw Wu Xuening. She was so pretentious, and I don't think she's a good person.
Wu Qiulian was also punished that day."
"I heard that this was the child of the concubine that Mr. Wu had banished to the farm. Later, the concubine died, and when she reached marriageable age, Mr. Wu remembered this daughter and took her back."
Jin Yuyao thought that she had met Wang Jingshan at night.
It seems that it was the night when Wu Xue Ning came back.
Wen Zhu watched the two young ladies walk away and said, "Madam, are they talking about the woman the general saved that day?"
Jin Yuyao nodded: "That should be it. I didn't expect she was such a pitiful woman."
The author said, "Looking at the woman like that, I don't think we'll have any more interactions in the future."
"Probably not."
After taking a walk and feeling better, they returned to the general's mansion.
At this time, the doorman came to report that Mrs. Wu would come to visit.
Jin Yuyao was stunned, wondering which Mrs. Wu it was. She didn't seem to know her.
Wen Zhu asked, "What is Madam Wu doing here?"
Uncle Fu said, "Mrs. Wu said she wanted to thank the General's Mansion."
Jin Yuyao said, "Then let them in."
Mrs. Wu came in with Wu Xue Ning.
When she arrived, she said directly: "Thank you, Madam General, for saving this girl in our house. Otherwise, something bad would have happened to her. This is just a small gift, but Madam General, you must accept it."
Jin Yuyao said, "Mrs. Wu is too polite. It was just a small favor that day."
Mrs. Wu looked around and said, "Isn't General Wang home?"
"I've been busy these days and haven't come back yet."
Madam Wu said, "I heard that the general's wife and the general have a very good relationship, which is something that the women in the capital envy very much.
Jin Yuyao smiled but said nothing.
Mrs. Wu said, "What do you think of this girl?"
Jin Yuyao was stunned and asked, "What does Madam Wu mean by this?"
Madam Wu said, "Look, the General is our savior. We feel that the General and Madam are very kind, and our Wu family has no way to repay them. How about letting Xue Ning enter the mansion to serve the General and Madam?"
Jin Yuyao raised her head and said, "We in the General's Mansion have no shortage of maids, but as for old women? I'm afraid Miss Wu is not suitable at her age."
Madam Wu was embarrassed for a moment and continued, "That's not what I meant. What I meant was that since the general is our savior, Xue Ning is willing to repay the general by becoming his concubine."
Jin Yuyao looked at Mrs. Wu coldly.
Mrs. Wu felt Jin Yuyao's cold gaze and put on a smile.
Wen Zhu said, "Madam Wu, our general saved your young lady's life, so how could he rescue a villain? Do you think we have concubines and aunts in our house?
Are you here today to thank our family? Or are you here to cause us trouble?
Mrs. Wu stood up anxiously and explained, "General's wife, that's not what I meant. You misunderstood. I really wanted to repay your family. I have no other intentions."
Jin Yuyao said, "Madam Wu, are you here to disgust me? We won't be able to save people casually in the future if you do this. Please get out."
Mrs. Wu was about to explain when Wenzhu simply drove them out.
When they got outside the mansion, Madam Wu poked Wu Xuening's forehead and said, "You little bitch are such a jinx! You never thought that no one would want you. You're just a money-loser."
Wang Xue Ning lowered her head and said nothing.
After getting on the carriage, Mrs. Wu was still not satisfied. She suppressed the anger in her heart a few times before she felt better.
