The Duke's Wife is Beautiful But Has a Dark Heart. Chapter 219

When Wen Yu returned home, Xiao Ji secretly said to her:

"Girl, someone came to see Hong Xing'er today. She followed her out and always looked back. She seemed afraid that someone was following her. Fortunately, I had arranged for someone to go to the small courtyard at the back. It took a while to come out, and after a while, the second girl came out. "

 “Hmm. Xiaoji did a good job! I understand.”

After Li Jiang told her, she asked the waiter who was present at the time to ask. The waiter said: When Prince Yongqing was talking to Miss Yan, a girl who was dining in a private room with him got in the car but did not leave. Stop in front and lift the curtain to take a look!

 Under various stimulations, Wen Huan is about to take risks!

Wen Yu immediately sent Laba to report the news. This time, King Wu's Courtyard was keeping an eye on him!

 At home!

I am waiting…

Mrs. Qi came to the store the next day.

Wen Yu said to her: "Originally, I was thinking about Zhuzhu's affairs after we got married in the future. Now it seems that I have to think of something else."

"Ayu, I'll tell you the truth. Some relatives and friends have mentioned two good ones. But... you see: Zhuzhu is so good-looking, but she has no background. A mother-in-law might be worried about marrying a daughter-in-law like her to her son. There is trouble. Even if I reluctantly agree, Zhuzhu is talented in cooking, but if her mother-in-law doesn't like it, she will have a hard time.”

 “You are right, I have realized this too!”

“Then let's hurry up. The situation in the store has stabilized, and she doesn't need to be there every day. If not, let her live at my parents' house and play with Huiyi and Yuanyuan for some time.”

 “That's a good idea! Then I'll make arrangements.”

If Yan Zhu doesn't live at home, he still has to make arrangements for Lan Zhou...

As soon as Mrs. Qi left, Jiang Pingting came and said, "Let Lan Zhou stay at my house!" After hearing Wen Yu's arrangement, she came up with an idea.

"Let me take another look. Lan Zhou is used to that small courtyard, and I am not willing to move it for him easily."

“Today is Princess Wu's birthday. I heard that the Queen had some sour words and she moved to the countryside to take care of it. I guess she can't take care of it for a while.”

"That person is really too much. He hangs Wen Huan while looking at Zhuzhu. Shameless!" Wen Yu said bitterly.

 “Wen Huan? Do they mean this?”

"Wen Huan saw you and me... and became competitive! We were talking about a good marriage, but we didn't want it anymore. She has been dating Yongqing County Prince for a long time. She has some ability, and she actually entered that circle! "

 “No future!”

“Pingting, there's something I need to do…” Wen Yu recalled the past with sadness on his face.

 “Is there anything you can't tell me!?”

 “My mother's death may not be that simple.”

"What do you mean..." Jiang Pingting understood immediately. She was not a fool. "What do you want to do?!"

“Now, they still won't let me go! Even the people around me have been bribed to attack me!” Wen Yu sneered.

 “That's crazy! Your grandmothers are so smart, how can they be allowed to go crazy?”

“She is just too smart! So she wants them all and thinks she can get them all!”

 “Do you have any evidence? Give it to me!”

"Many years have passed, and it's long gone. Moreover, I guess that when my grandmother found out, it was already done, and she helped with the aftermath. So, there won't be any evidence. Anyway, greed will prompt them to do evil again!"

"Yes! Especially if you do evil and get benefits but no punishment. If you encounter trouble again, you will take this shortcut. Ha..." Jiang Pingting smiled bitterly, "If you don't look for trouble, trouble will come. Come to you sometimes because of greed, and sometimes just because she thinks she can do it..."

“Pingting, how are you?”

"My grandson has been visiting me frequently recently, so I recruited Xue Ying. My former concubine was pregnant and she was attacked by her. So, she was afraid that I would be pregnant, so she added ingredients to the soup."

 “This **** woman! What should I do?”

"There are people around me who will see. That day, I returned the soup directly to the kitchen, saying it didn't taste right, and asked the chef to make it again. Then the next day, which happened to be the first day of the new year, I mentioned this when I paid greetings to the Crown Princess. When Xue Ying heard this, she got angry and asked the princess to hold her down."

"The Crown Princess is a little confused. She only has a son! No matter how important her mother's family is, it is not as important as her son!"

"I'm afraid there are more important things in her heart! Hmm...my father said that the Crown Princess's brother is quite capable. He is well-informed in all aspects and is suspected of betraying his official position. Moreover, those things were approved by the Eastern Palace."

 “My God, this is no small matter. The emperor will be sure of it!”

"Yes! I told the news to the grandson, and he knew some of it. He said that it was done during the period when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in poor health. This is really in line with the saying: Throw a rat into a trap. The Crown Prince was in poor health, and he had a close relationship with The Crown Princess is very affectionate, and His Highness has to hide many things from him. "

“But if this continues, the East Palace will be in danger! Last time we went to the hot spring village, wasn't it the one who had the attack?”

 “That time, it wasn't considered an attack. Ah Yu, that one was... capable of ruthless attacks.”

"Pingting... I got my mother's dowry, got a good marriage, established myself in the capital, we met again, and made good arrangements for my family. Now I have opened a shop, everything is going smoothly! I thought everything would fall into place. After cleaning up the Wen family, everything will be perfect! But I didn't expect that there is still such a crisis..."

"When I enter the Prince's Mansion, it means dragging the family into trouble..." Pingting gently pinned her warm words behind her head. "However, Grandpa is very considerate and can't avoid what he says should come."

“But Xue Ying is so shameless! How can she deserve this status?!”

"Perhaps the Crown Princess thinks that the troubles she made are nothing to worry about."

"But where did this go! In my opinion, she herself is also being protected by the prince!" "Yes. Smart little girl! She sees things quite clearly!"

Wen Yu said worriedly: "Xue Ying is a quick and easy person. Is there anyone around you?"

“Your Highness said that arrangements have been made, so I can rest assured!”

“Your Highness treats you well?”

 “Heh…he's so weird!”

The two sisters were chatting in the room, and Li Jiang was wandering around the door. It took him a long time to realize that the beggar had returned.

 Hardly recognized them all.

He wears a blue cloth headband and a blue cloth shirt.

　　　Looks like he took a shower, brushed his beard, trimmed his nails, and changed his open-toed shoes.

Although the clothes are still not that good, they are clean. Well, the jade on my waist is still there.

Shrugged my nose, it finally doesn't stink anymore, no wonder I didn't notice it right away!

“Where did you get it so clean? Are these clothes stolen?”

 The beggar looked at him silently and said nothing.

Li Jiang loves to make a fuss, so he ran back to call Sun Ying. Jin Huan came, and after a while, Yan Zhu came too.

 Lately, the store always throws some food for him.

Although he couldn't guarantee three meals a day, he obviously gained a few pounds and his face became brighter.

Li Jiang looked at him curiously: "Don't tell me, he looks pretty good. Is he not so stupid anymore? His eyes are rolling!"

Yan Zhu said: "Li Jiang, don't talk nonsense. Well, that's good of you! It would be great if you help us with some work and don't eat for free!"

Li Jiang said: "What can he do?"

"Just now, the chef said that it was windy and rainy yesterday, and the firewood was soaked. It started to smoke when it was burned. I just brought two fruit trees from the warehouse, and they will be chopped. Can you do it? You must be able to handle the firewood. If I chop it, I'll give you something delicious!”

 The beggar immediately stood up and stood beside Yan Zhu. Yan Zhu said, "Do you understand? Come on then!"

 At the back of the restaurant, Yan Zhu pointed to two sections of dead trees on the ground, "This is it!"

The beggar stepped forward, picked up the ax that was lying on the ground, and weighed it in his hand. He seemed dissatisfied. I tried the strength with my hands and was not satisfied either. I saw a whetstone next to me, so I walked over, poured some water on the stone, and started sharpening it.

Li Jiang saw his skillful movements and was surprised: "Is it possible that you used to be a woodcutter?"

The beggar ignored him, and Li Jiang continued to ask: "Carpenter? Blacksmith?"

Sun Ying looked at it and curled his lips: "Li Jiang, don't mess with him!"

"What's wrong?"

 “I can't tell! Anyway, be polite!”

 “Cut!” Li Jiang refused to accept it and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Sun Ying also left.

Yan Zhu moved to a small stool and sat down, holding her chin in her hands, and sighed softly: "I did something wrong, and some of them said..."

The beggar actually looked at her and shook his head slightly.

But Yan Zhu didn't look at him, "Oh, maybe I'm quite stupid! This morning, Mrs. Qi came, and so did the general. It's because I did something wrong. Alas... Mrs. Qi said, let me clean up. , go and stay at Cui's house for a while.”

 The beggar disagreed and continued to shake his head.

Yan Zhu said: "Although I like Xiao Yuanyuan, what will Lan Zhou do when I leave? Besides, I really like coming to the store... What a bad luck, I have to burn incense!"

 The beggar listened carefully and chopped firewood carefully.

Yan Zhu, who had not done much work and was still in a daze, heard Li Jiang's cry. When he looked again, he saw that the firewood had been chopped.

 Then roughly divided into five piles, all of the same length.

Each one is extremely beautiful.

 Even if there are some that are not thick on one side, he has forced them into the same shape... neatly stacked them.

Li Jiang shouted: "This is firewood for roasting ducks! It's not for making furniture! Why did you do it like this? Why are you willing to burn it!? You are really weird!"

Yan Zhu couldn't help laughing.

The beggar looked at her deeply with a tender look on his face...
