After saying goodbye to Chen Jinghuai, Jiang Nianjiao returned to Qinglan Courtyard.
During the days when she left, Qinglan Courtyard was still the same as before, with orchids and camphor trees in full bloom.
Chunhua, Wandong, Lingying and the other three maids had obviously received the news that they had returned. At this moment, they were only leading the maids from the inner and outer courtyards to wait in the courtyard.
This time they learned from Luo Ruo's lesson and did not run to the front hall to greet him.
And perhaps because they didn't wait for the news they wanted to hear, Chunhua and Wandong were a little distraught when they saw Jiang Nianjiao, and Lingying was not in a high mood. After all, the three secret guard sisters who went out with her arrived. Now that she has not been found, she is naturally in despair.
Jiang Nianjiao briefly glanced at the expressions of everyone in the courtyard, then raised her head slightly to look into the lush forest. She didn't know if Yu Shisan sent by Zhao Yanzhen was still watching her here.
"Miss, I have heard what others have said. You have been really tired all the way. I just don't know who those killers are. They actually dare to kill even our eldest lady of the Jiang family." Wan Dong is a good actor. Saying a word at this moment will bring tears to his eyes. Then he rolled down first.
Jiang Nianjiao had no intention of singing with this late winter at this time. After all, her entanglement with Zhao Yanzhen had already frightened her.
Therefore, facing the performance of late winter, she only said lukewarmly, "Am I okay?"
After saying that, she went into the house.
However, after hearing her words, Wan Dong and Chun Hua looked at each other in fear.
After all, they were just greedy for some money before, but recently they were really involved in the mistress's plan to murder Jiang Nianjiao.
Although we still don't understand why the eldest lady came back safely, her appearance in Qinglan Courtyard is undoubtedly not proof that Madam's plan has failed.
That's why they were so frightened right now.
Chunhua had to calm down after all. She just pursed her lips towards Wan Dong, signaling her to continue telling Jiang Nianjiao.
Although she was reluctant in late winter, her life and death was now at stake, so she couldn't pretend to be stupid anymore.
When Jiang Nianjiao returned indoors, she sat down on the Arhat couch in her room. Late winter immediately served him diligently.
Then Wan Dong whispered, "Miss, can you tell us how you escaped from danger a while ago? Several sisters in our courtyard couldn't sleep well at night because they were worried about the safety of the lady."
Jiang Nianjiao wanted to make them feel uneasy, so naturally she didn't say anything at this moment. "How else can we escape from danger? Okay, you just mind your own business. Why are you asking so much?"
After her words fell, Jiang Nianjiao ignored them again. Her cold attitude only made the two people more and more frightened.
Just when I didn't know what to do, news of Yu Se's visit came from the outer courtyard.
As soon as they heard Yu Se rushed over impatiently, Jiang Nianjiao sneered in her heart.
After all, Yu Se couldn't sit still anymore.
Now he actually came directly to the door.
She still had to be at ease with Se during this period, so Jiang Nianjiao didn't say anything and only asked Yu Se to invite him in.
I just didn't expect that Yu Se would come here by himself. He actually brought Jiang Zhi here today.
Looking at Jiang Zhi who followed Yu Se obediently without daring to raise his head.
She always felt that the mother and daughter were more like a master and servant than a mother and daughter, and the servant was the one who could be manipulated to the death.
Seeing Jiang Nianjiao looking at him, Yu Se showed his usual charitable smile, "Jiaojiao, it's great that you can come back safely. Mother has nothing to give you, so she only cooked a bowl of Tremella and lotus seed soup for you. .”
When she said this, coupled with her kind smile, who would have thought that the person who really committed the murder was actually this seemingly benevolent woman.
She seemed to be a lot more rounded during this time, and her belly was also bigger, and she was already showing signs of pregnancy. Thinking of Yu Se's plan to abort her fetus in her previous life, Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Therefore, from the moment Yu Se entered the door, she only said, "I'd like to thank my mother for worrying about it."
Then she winked at Cuiqiao who was aside, and only signaled her to quickly help Yu Se sit down.
After all, if Yu Seru had given birth in her Qinglan Courtyard, she would be in real trouble.
When Yu Se saw Jiang Nianjiao sending his maid to her, she was obviously aware of this, but she didn't care about it. When she was helped to sit down, she just smiled and asked tentatively, "Jiaojiao, Have you endured hardships outside these days?"
At this time, Jiang Nianjiao only let Lianying take the Tremella lotus seed soup sent by Yu Se, but she did not eat it.
After all, even if the things Yu Se sent were not poisonous, she was afraid that some unclean condiments had been added.
However, although she didn't eat Yu Se's food, there was a smile on her face. "Although she was a little frightened, she didn't suffer much at all thanks to the rescue of the Third Highness."
After hearing this, Yu Se nodded, and then just said, "It's good that you don't have to endure hardship. Your father and I are actually very worried about you these days."
Hearing what Yu Se said, Jiang Nianjiao only smiled and did not answer.
Yu Se also knew that Jiang Nianjiao and Jiang Fang were not getting along now, so he stopped mentioning those false words.
"Jiaojiao, you are going to get married next month. Marriage is a major event in our women's lives. After you go out this time, don't worry about those trivial matters. Just relax and wait for your marriage. After all, there are already some rumors in the city. If the news spreads, even if you don't mind, you should think about Jinghuai." Yu Se took Jiang Nianjiao's hand, speaking in a sincere manner.
Although Jiang Nianjiao thought Yu Se's face was really ridiculous.
What rumors? Not all of them were rumors that she intentionally leaked out.
But on the surface, she still pretended to be docile, "Jiaojiao knows, mother can rest assured."
Yu Se smiled and nodded, and then asked, "Jiaojiao, don't blame mother for being worried. What is the situation between you and the three highnesses now?"
When Yu Se asked about this, Jiang Nianjiao immediately stood up and asked, "What does mother mean by asking this?".
Seeing Jiang Nianjiao being so excited, Yu Se immediately said, "Jiaojiao, don't be excited. I am asking this because of your father's intention."
"What does he mean?" Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but raise a mocking smile when she heard Jiang Fang's name. "What? Is father worried that I will embarrass him?"
Seeing Jiang Nianjiao's expression, Yu Se felt happy. She was always happy to see the father and daughter at odds, but she still said warmly, "Of course not, Jiaojiao, I am asking this kind of thing for your own good. After all, No one can be tempted by your beauty."
"It's just that you are waiting to be married now. It would be bad if you get involved with the Third Highness again." Yu Se said softly.
Her words were fair. Jiang Nianjiao said softly, "His Highness Three and I have only met each other a few times. He just came to my rescue when he saw me in trouble. There will be nothing after us. The attendants around him can testify to this." , Cuiqiao can also testify for me."
After hearing this, Yu Se nodded, and then said, "That's what I said. Our Jiaojiao and Jinghuai have such a deep relationship, how could we have anything to do with His Highness the Third Highness? Your father just doesn't believe it. I I can also see that he is holding your hand today and refuses to let go, and the way he looks at you is clearly wishful thinking."
"Although I have heard from outsiders that His Highness has always had a good reputation and is a gentle and polite person, but looking at his behavior today, I feel that this person has hidden evil intentions under his gentleness. He is a very ambitious person."
"If Jiaojiao likes such a person, mother will naturally not say anything. But since Jiaojiao has no interest in him, it is best to avoid him during this period. This will also prevent the marriage from causing complications."
Yu Se's words were somewhat provocative, but Jiang Nianjiao had to admit that Yu Se was quite accurate in judging people. She really didn't blame Zhao Yanzhen at all.
Jiang Nianjiao lowered her head and said softly, "Don't worry, daughter."
Then Yu Se only held her hand and talked to her carefully for a while, and then left.
Only this time, her little tail Jiang Zhi, who had been silent all this time, had no intention of leaving at all.
When Yu Se saw that Jiang Zhi was still sitting there and not getting up, he didn't show much anger. She smiled and said, "It seems that we Zhizhi also have something to say to our sister. Since Zhizhi wants to talk to her, let's talk more. After all, they will inevitably have to go their separate ways and get married one day. It’s hard to see each other again.”
After saying this, Yu Se left.
Jiang Nianjiao thought that Jiang Zhi was arranged by Yu Se.
The person who continued to talk to Jiang Zhi didn't want to say anything.
She only asked the maid next to her to bring a box, then handed it to Jiang Nianjiao and said, "Sister, this is for you. I wish you a happy wedding in advance."
After saying this, she seemed a little embarrassed. She glanced at Jiang Nianjiao timidly and couldn't find anything to say for a moment.
Jiang Nianjiao didn't expect that she would stay here just to give her something.
She glanced at the wooden box with a slightly startled look, but it was only a glance, and she asked Wan Dong who was standing aside to accept her gift. She smiled in an extremely polite and distant manner, "Azhi is interested, and I would like to thank you in advance." It’s past Azhi.”
However, although she thanked her, she did not open her gift. Her gesture was like receiving the Tremella lotus seed soup sent by Yu Se.
Although she was not worried that Jiang Zhi would do anything to her like her mother.
But Jiang Zhi is Yu Se's daughter after all. Even if she doesn't want to do something to her, if the relationship between the two is good, Yu Se will inevitably not get his idea into her hands.
Besides, she plans to deal with her mother in a few days. Jiang Zhi might start to hate herself in a few days.
Instead of being pestered by Jiang Zhi and asking why she did this to her mother, it's better that they were never sisters.
Jiang Zhi is a thoughtful person, and seeing Jiang Nianjiao's posture, her eyes couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
But she still didn't say anything.
Although Jiang Xiang was not mean to her, she still often had the illusion that she was like a floating duck without roots in the Jiang Mansion.
In this house, she just needs to be careful and pay attention to everything.
I never imagined that I could be truly accepted by Jiang Mansion.
