Lamei didn't expect that the young master who had gradually calmed down would cry again. She felt something was wrong and wanted to find out the reason.
Just such a moment of careful observation allowed Mammy to find an opportunity and push the crying, struggling and fussy little man into her arms.
Lamei hugged the child, feeling a pair of small hands tightly hugging her neck, and her chubby little face pressing against her. How could she be willing to give the child away? I could only hold the young master in my arms and comfort him with gentle words.
That’s it!
Zhang Da pulled her to his side, and before she could scream, Grandma had already opened the car curtain!
"nobody!"
"How come there's no one?!"
Dozens of people immediately gathered around, looking at the empty carriage, and stood there in shock and confusion.
The people who had been watching the excitement also rushed forward, muttering to the people around them: "Hey! There is a lot of chatter here, but it turns out that you are talking to the air!"
"Good guy, this is all wrong!"
"The key is where did the people go? Have you seen anyone get out of the car in a while?!"
"No! I've never seen it anyway! What about you? Have any of you seen it?"
"No! I didn't see it either!"
"No one got out of the car at all! There are so many of us watching! How can we not notice any movement? Huh?! Let me tell you, there was no one in the carriage before!"
"It's really possible!"
"Impossible! I was standing nearby when the wind blew the car window curtains, and I saw a girl inside!"
"Did you make a mistake?! Did you mistake that maid for the Cen family girl?"
"Yes, yes! It's very possible!"
"It's possible! I saw two girls inside with my own eyes!"
"There are two girls...Which one of you pays attention to the coachman?! I remember that this carriage has a coachman!"
The sound of everyone's words woke up the guards of the Cen and Guan families. Everyone suddenly realized where the driver who had pushed away before had gone?
"Lamei, tell me! Where did the lady go?!" Zhang Da was also worried about the safety of the third lady, and pushed Lamei with a bad expression and asked.
At this time, Lamei disappeared from the panic and anger before. Instead, she calmly shook the young master who had calmed down, and said with a faint smile: "Miss? My lady has already entered the examination room!"
"What?!" Everyone was shocked for a moment and quickly reacted.
"This is impossible! The door to the examination room is not open!"
Grandma even shouted loudly: "It's impossible for the Third Young Madam to give up the reference. She must be in the crowd now!"
After she finished speaking, the Guan family and the steward of the Guan Mansion, who had been silent, looked at Zhang Da, as well as the deputy steward of the Cen Mansion, who was also hidden in the crowd: "Master Cen's token will not be left in the manor again. Bar?!"
"Since my master promised to Guan Yushi, he will definitely not break his promise!" The deputy manager of the Cen Mansion waved his hand and asked Zhang Da to hold Cen Minzhou's token and lead people to find the person.
When the elder Chao Ge wanted to find his daughter, who among the people present would not give him face? !
"Attention, be polite!" Cen's deputy manager couldn't help but remind him, "Don't make it ugly!"
As long as he gave the other party enough face, he believed that there would be no one present who would not be willing to give Mr. Ge a smooth favor.
The confident deputy manager of the Cen Mansion thought this way, feeling vaguely that he had forgotten something.
Originally, the deputy steward wanted to think about it carefully, but his family members were pressing him hard, so he had to put this idea aside and also urged Zhang Da to take the guards to find someone.
"The guards of the Guan family are not idle, right?"
The deputy manager felt uneasy, and couldn't explain why he was not at ease. He looked sideways at the Guan family and shouted at Zhang Da and others arrogantly, and immediately felt unhappy.
Thinking of the instructions given by the master and the steward before coming out, the deputy steward sneered at the Guan family and the steward: "Don't forget, our Cen Mansion is cooperating with your actions. Is it possible that when the huge Guan family enters Kyoto, they all become Are you waiting to eat that free rice?!"
"Hmph!" The Guan family and the housekeeper made him so excited. After looking at each other, they ordered the guards they brought to follow.
They can find the young lady of their Guan family by themselves!
The Cen family are just helpers!
When they find the Third Young Madam, I think the Cen family will have no shame in intervening!
Thinking of this, the Guan family speeded up their search in a spirit of competition.
In fact, the search went exceptionally well.
Just as the deputy steward of the Cen Mansion had just predicted, there was really no candidate or pedestrian present who didn't want to give Cen Mansion some face!
More people not only wished that Miss Cen was right in front of her, but also sent out manpower to look for her quietly.
In their opinion, if they could find Miss Cen hiding in the crowd, they would have made a meritorious service in front of Cen Sanfu.
I can leave my name and surname in front of Mr. Ge, but I have to worry about the future!
Suddenly, the crowd became excited.
"Boss, I think there's going to be chaos outside, let's just take care of it!"
The yamen servant outside Shuntian Mansion murmured to the captain.
The yamen officer in charge squinted his eyes and looked outside, then looked at the sky: "There are still two quarters of an hour before the exam room opens, and it's still early! As long as they don't attack the yamen, leave them alone!"
The Cen and Guan families were not the only ones who were restless outside. Many of the people who were secretly looking for someone were also from wealthy families. They were just small government officials, so there was no need to rush forward to offend them.
After all, it is a great hatred to prevent someone from rising to prominence!
The Guan family did not expect that there would be such a wanton time in Kyoto. They would walk in the crowd and yell, and many people would cooperate with them in a friendly and gentle manner, which gradually made them feel lost and complacent.
They looked around a lot in the inner circle but found nothing, so they immediately turned their attention to the outside.
Especially the carriages lined up at the back of the candidates' entrance queue. Those are the focus of investigation. After all, carriage carriages can hide people better than hiding in the crowd in disguise!
"Let's go! Let's go over and take a look!" The guards of the Guan family looked at each other and walked towards the outer layer.
"You, go and call the steward of the Cen Mansion over! You, go and call the guards of the Cen Mansion! They have tokens, so they can talk better! And you, go and call Aunt Guan over! Remember, call the girl Lamei and Bring the young master here too!"
The housekeeper of the Guan Mansion repeatedly ordered, although it felt good to show the power of a fox to a tiger, he must not forget to push the people of the Cen Mansion to the front.
The deputy manager of the Cen Mansion worked hard and got nothing at all. He was depressed about how to deal with the master, so he listened to the invitation of Guan's family, sighed, and led the people to look for him.
When he heard the arrangements made by the housekeeper of the Guan Mansion, the deputy steward of the Cen Mansion was about to nod when his eyes swept across a carriage with a familiar emblem, and his heart suddenly lifted.
"!!!" He said he had forgotten something!
The little demon king from the Sheng family is here in Shuntian Mansion for reference!
"Don't go there yet!" Seeing the Guan family showing off their power and surrounding the carriage, the deputy manager of the Cen Mansion suddenly changed his face and shouted loudly.
Unfortunately, he was still half a beat too late.
Before he could shout, twenty or so armed guards stood near the carriage and surrounded the Cen and Guan families!
