Chapter 849 Chapter 849
A large group of female relatives, with their maids, entered the second gate, surrounded the old princess, and walked towards her courtyard.
The snow kept falling, and a lot of snow had piled up on the path. Because the old princess had returned, the housekeeper quickly asked the maids to sweep the snow. Just as they were about to come down from the corridor, a maid came running over in a panic, running very fast. Fortunately, the maid serving the old princess was strong and grabbed her.
"Huang, are you blind? You have offended the princess and the guests. What should we do?"
Huang was pushed by the maids and fell into the snow. She simply raised her head and cried out in a sad voice, "Princess, it's bad. Yingxue Pavilion has been robbed."
Being robbed?
The old princess was slightly stunned, then took a step forward and asked, "Why did we get robbed out of nowhere?"
You are talking nonsense without even considering the timing. There are so many women here now, most of them are well-known and influential. If they get robbed, who are they going to frame?
The old woman knelt down with a plop. "Princess, I was the princess's servant. She is gone now, but Yingxue Pavilion cannot be desecrated..."
The old woman's surname is Huang, and she is Princess Langwu's aunt.
After the princess committed suicide, all the maids and servants in Yingxue Pavilion were sent away, except for Huang, who was reluctant to leave and begged the old princess for a long time before she stayed.
Otherwise, the old princess would miss her daughter very much, especially since she is the closest aunt to her daughter.
My daughter has committed suicide, how can these aunts and maids stay here?
Huang only had Princess Langwu in her mind, so she just stayed in the palace. There were many people coming and going because of the old prince's funeral these two days, so she wanted to avoid letting tactless people offend Yingxue Pavilion, so she said she would go and take a look when she had free time.
As soon as she reached the gate and saw the messy footprints on the stone steps, she felt something was wrong.
When I was about to push open the gate, I saw traces of someone climbing over the wall on the side. Could it be that there was someone?
When she thought of this, she became frightened. She stuck to the door panel and pricked up her ears to listen carefully. She vaguely heard a sound. It was over!
There really is a thief!
Huang did not dare to rush in rashly, so she could only hurried to look for someone. Before she ran out of the second door, she saw the old princess returning.
"Princess, we've been robbed. The snow at the gate has been trampled all over. The flowers and plants planted beside have been trampled terribly. There are also footprints all over the white wall."
The old princess couldn't believe it at all.
"There's no one living in Yingxue Pavilion. Who is it? Let's go!"
After saying that, he led his people to Yingxue Pavilion. Old Madam Qin and Princess Hong'an stood on the left and right, trying to persuade them, "If there is a thief, why should the old princess go there? Just let the subordinates deal with it."
If this had happened in the past, the old princess would have definitely planned this way.
But today was different. She had just sent her husband's coffin out when her only daughter's home was broken into by thieves. The sadness that had just calmed down surged up again.
He wiped his tears with a soft handkerchief and choked with sobs.
Without caring about the female guests behind him, he supported the maid and pointed at Yingxue Pavilion, "I want to go and see who is bullying me here today?"
Everyone shouted to the princess to be careful.
But the old princess had already stopped listening. Madam Qin sighed and could only follow. She turned her head to look at her eldest daughter-in-law and suddenly frowned, "Where is Guan Zhou?"
The eldest lady looked around and said, "When we were kneeling, there were many people. I seemed to see Guan Zhou following us. Now look..."
She stood on tiptoe and looked for him hurriedly, but found that the person was gone.
"What about people?"
The eldest lady was a little flustered. Old Lady Qin felt a sinking feeling in her heart and ordered her daughter-in-law, "My son, please come slowly and look for it first."
Princess Hongan was helping the maids down the stairs. She looked back and saw the old lady's anxious face, so she called out, "Old sister, please slow down."
Madam Qin quickly responded, "Thank you, Princess, for your concern."
Princess Hong An asked again, "Are you looking for someone?"
"...No, my Erlang is worrying every day, so I asked his sister-in-law to go and take a look." Everyone knew that the old lady of the Qin family loved her youngest son the most, so they didn't find it strange. Princess Hongan stopped and smiled lightly, "Old sister, you and I are really worried about each other. I'm afraid that young people can take care of themselves, so there's no need to worry."
Old Madam Qin looked around her. Only Jiang stood not too far away. After a closer look, she said, "What the princess said is true, but my second son is not as well-behaved and sensible as Fuyun. The girl is gentle and polite, but my boy is a jerk!"
"What are you talking about, elder sister? I heard that Erlang went to the front to perform the ceremonial guard, so he certainly wasn't causing trouble."
"Yes, I went to see the old prince off. It's snowing heavily right now, so I'm a little worried."
Madam Qin followed her mother-in-law's order and walked back with her maid. She could vaguely hear her mother-in-law asking, "Why don't we see Fuyun? Did she go to rest?"
"She has difficulty walking, so let her go and talk to the young lady from the prince's family."
Madam Qin walked to the end of the team and suddenly saw the women of the Pei family, who were surrounding the Princess of Ming County and Princess Fuman. She stepped forward to greet them, took Qi Yueniang's hand, and walked a few steps to the side, "Can I see your fourth brother's wife?"
Before Qi Yueniang could explain clearly, Princess Mingjun sneered.
"Madam, are you looking for my fourth brother's wife?"
Madam Qin looked back without avoiding, "Yes, my old lady misses Guan Zhou and can't leave this girl by her side, so she asked me to go look for her."
Pei Qiuyun's face showed mixed emotions as she finished speaking. "Mrs. Lao and the old lady are worried about me. My fourth brother's wife sprained her ankle, so the fourth brother took her back."
really?
Mrs. Qin was slightly stunned, and then asked, "But is it serious?"
Xiao Yinxiu sighed, "My fourth brother's wife has always been spoiled. She has been out for several times, but not once has she been safe. Madam, don't take it to heart. The fourth brother will take it and send it back."
After hearing this, Madam Qin whispered a few words to her maid and then went after Madam Qin.
But there were so many female relatives that Madam Qin couldn't catch up for a while. Princess Ming looked at Madam Qin who was in a hurry and sneered, "The Qin family really values this one from the fourth family..."
Qi Yueniang did not answer. Xiao Yinxiu snorted and laughed, "His Erlang has always been unruly and disregards the difference between men and women. He stays in Shaohua Garden every day. During the day, the fourth son is on duty. It's a situation where a man and a woman are alone... Hum!"
"Is there such a thing?"
After hearing this, Qi Yueniang quickly tried to smooth things over, "The second son of the Qin family has a good character. When Guan Zhou fell into the water, the Qin family also made great efforts to find him. What's more, in Shaohua Garden, there are a room full of maids and servants--"
What I meant was that it wasn't a relationship that was shameful enough to be exposed.
But Pei Qiuyun, who prided herself on being well-educated, dignified and well-mannered, could not stand it at all, "Day after day, it's so embarrassing!"
She looked up and happened to meet Liu Zhuang's almond-shaped eyes. She sighed, "Fuman..., why can't there be more good girls like you in the world?"
