Chapter 546
546 Aunty and miss Wang’s fight (3)
The siblings ignored her with cold faces. Suddenly, the aunt said, ”
“Your young lady is chief advisor Wang’s daughter? That’s great. My Erlang was accused of cheating in the imperial examination by some bastard and was locked up in the prison of the Ministry of Justice.
“Young lady, can you please help me beg your young lady to help Erlang?”
Xu Qi ‘an and Xu lingyue looked at their aunt with a stiff expression.
Did this mother (Auntie) really not have a single bit of brain?
You can’t just throw yourself at the enemy and think that you’re not dying fast enough and want someone else to stab you again?
“Miss LAN ‘er, I won’t see you out,” Xu Qi’ an said coldly, his face dark.
Miss LAN ‘er was full of doubts and took her leave anxiously.
…………
Wang simu sat on the soft couch of the spacious carriage. From time to time, she lifted the curtain of the window to look outside, and from time to time, she paid attention to the teapot at the bottom of the carriage that was licked by the orange charcoal fire.
It fully reflected the anxiety in miss Wang’s heart.
More than an hour had passed, and that wretched girl, LAN ‘er, had yet to return. The one waiting for her was the one who felt the most uncomfortable.
If the young lady of the Xu family refused her visit, it would most likely represent the Xu family’s intention, as well as Xu niannian’s intention.
Then should I continue to visit? Or should he back off in the face of difficulties?
The latter made her unwilling, but the former … After all, she was still an unmarried woman and the daughter of the First Minister. No matter what, she still needed her face and reputation, so she was embarrassed to continue visiting.
As these thoughts flashed through her mind, she lifted the curtain to take a look and was surprised to find LAN ‘er’s small carriage.
The small carriage slowly came to a stop. The maidservant, LAN ‘er, nimbly jumped off the carriage and jogged over. She climbed up the tall carriage and pushed open the door to enter.
“Wretched girl, you’re back so late. What time is it already?” Wang simu, who was upset, said angrily.
“What did miss Xu say?” she asked after taking a deep breath.
LAN-er shook her head.
Wang simu’s face instantly fell, and the light in her eyes instantly dimmed.
At this moment, she saw LAN ‘er gulp and gasp for breath. She said, “”Miss, something bad has happened. Xu Huiyuan has been arrested by the Ministry of Justice for cheating in the imperial examination.”
“What?”
Wang simu had mixed feelings when she heard the news. The first thing that came to her mind was confusion and worry. She was worried about Xu Xin’s future and safety.
Then, he felt a trace of joy.
It turns out that he didn’t show up not because he had no interest in me, but because he was captured by the Ministry of Justice and couldn’t escape.
I was wrong about him.
LAN ‘er told miss Wang everything that had happened in the Xu family, including Xu Qi’ an’s cold attitude and Xu lingyue’s distant attitude.
Minister sun of the Ministry of Justice is my father’s accomplice. Do they think that my father is the mastermind behind this? ‘If it’s really father’s doing, then … Then I’m …’ Wang simu felt bitter in her heart.
Hmph! LAN ‘er said angrily, ” your attitude is so bad, and you still want you to save Xu Huiyuan. The Xu family is so shameless.
Wang si mu furrowed her brows. speak properly. After a pause, she said with a serious face, “”Is it Xu Qi ‘an’s request?”
No, I’ve only met Xu Huiyuan once and exchanged a few words with him. Xu Qi ‘an is a smart man. How could he ask me, the daughter of Chief Assistant Wang, to help him?
It’s impossible for him to know what I’m thinking. Even father doesn’t know.
The intelligent miss Wang immediately noticed something.
LAN ‘er shook her head. it’s the mistress of the Xu family. She’s the pretty Woman we saw the other day.
Madam Xu’s request …
Wang simu’s expression turned serious once again. She racked her brains, pondered, and analyzed …
She’s Xu Huiyuan’s mother, so her impression of me and the Wang clan must be extremely poor after encountering such a matter. So why did she ask for my help?
To be able to raise a scheming daughter, a nephew with unparalleled spirit, and a talented son, such a woman was definitely not an ordinary person.
I have to think about it carefully, I can’t be careless …
“LAN ‘er, that mistress, did she, did she scold me or my father? What’s her attitude?” Wang si mu asked.
she has the best attitude in the family. She was especially sincere when she asked for help. LAN ‘er said.
This … Wang simu’s eyes widened, and she had a corresponding guess in her heart.
this is the first time I invited Xu Huiyuan to participate in. cultural gathering in the name of my father. There is nothing wrong with that in itself, but I also invited Xu Huiyuan to tour the lake in such. short time … A careless man might not think too much about something like a lake tour, but as a woman, and a woman with extraordinary wisdom at that, it was impossible for her not to notice it at all.
Even if you can’t be sure of my feelings, you can at least guess … So, this was a test and an opportunity?
She didn’t dislike me. She didn’t treat me as an enemy or dislike me just because I’m the daughter of the Wang family.
She was showing me her attitude.
Then, through LAN. er. the Xu family’s head lady … He made this request.
He was hinting at me.
As expected, the Xu family’s matriarch was a person with great wisdom … She’s the only one in the family who saw through my intentions … Wang si mu clenched her fists tightly, and her delicate body trembled slightly.
At the same time, he was also excited that he had met his match.
“LAN ‘er, go to the Imperial City. I want to find my father at the Yamen.” Wang simu said, word for word.
