Chapter 19 Crash
"What?" Yu frowned and said, "Why is she here?"

Yu went to the doctor who treated Xie Xingchen and gave him a sum of money to inquire about it.

Xie Xingchen's injuries were not as severe as Dou complained.

But my waist was also twisted and I needed to stay in bed for a few days.

Mrs. Dou regarded Xie Xingchen as a precious child. Why did she come to this tea-picking alley when she wasn't at home with her daughter to recuperate?
This tea-picking alley is either a library or a tea house or a restaurant, but it is a place specially designed for fun and recreation.

Xie Zhaozhao half-lifted the car curtain, "Where is it?"

"You entered the teahouse in front and through the back door." the servant woman replied.

"Mother." Xie Zhaozhao looked at Mrs. Yu, "It sounds like the second aunt is sneaky and doesn't know what she is doing here. Why don't we go take a look."

"Alright!"

Mrs. Yu nodded, carefully gathered her daughter's cloak, and led Xie Zhaozhao out of the carriage.

Because Xie Zhaozhao mentioned "nightmares" and many other trivial things earlier, Mrs. Yu was already wary of Mrs. Dou.

Abnormality is a monster. If she encounters it, she will naturally take a look.

The mother and daughter got out of the car and followed the maid's guidance to the car club where Dou entered.

The tea house is elegant and quiet. Because of the gloomy weather today, there are not many guests in the hall.

"Madam and young lady, are you sitting in private seats or--" The waiter came forward to greet him enthusiastically.

Xie Zhaozhao said directly: "A lady came in just now. I wonder which private room she went to?"

"This..." The waiter looked at Xie Zhaozhao and Yu Shi with hesitant expressions.

Xie Zhaozhao said: "That's my second aunt. I didn't expect to meet her here, so I came in to say hello."

After saying that, Xie Zhaozhao's red sleeves handed the boy a silver ingot.

"Easy to say, easy to say!" The clerk accepted the ingot and hurriedly led Xie Zhaozhao and Yu upstairs: "This way, please, the lady is in the Plum Blossom Hall, she just came in."

"I understand, thank you." Xie Zhaozhao said politely: "Go and do your work, we will go there ourselves."

"Okay! If your distinguished guest has any instructions, just call me."

After the guy left, Mrs. Yu wanted to go into the Plum Blossom Hall.

"Mom." Xie Zhaozhao stopped her, "Let's sit outside and see if she is alone or with someone else."

Yu stopped immediately and said, "That's right!"

There was a seat in the corner of the second floor, with a curtain hanging down most of the way. It was relatively hidden, so Yu and Xie Zhaozhao went there and sat down.

Yu couldn't help but tap her hand on the table, her face changed unpredictably, "Zhao Zhao, you said she came out at this time, made an appointment in such a secluded place, and was so sneaky——"

Not to mention that there is some old lover secretly here to meet?

But thinking that her daughter Yunying was not married, Yu did not say these words.

Xie Zhaozhao said: "Let's wait and see. Maybe the second aunt just feels bored at home and comes out to get some fresh air. Maybe she just dropped in to sit down."

"Yeah." Yu nodded, but she didn't think it was the two reasons Xie Zhaozhao said.

The mother and daughter sat for a while, and then a woman wearing a rose brocade dress and a cloak came up from the second floor, followed by two maids in blue.

Arriving in front of the Plum Blossom Hall, the maid knocked on the door.

After a while, Aunt Chai, who was beside Second Aunt Dou, opened the door, looked around carefully for a while, and welcomed the woman in.

"That's -" Yu's face changed, "that vixen from the Qing family of Dali Temple!"

... In the private seat, Mrs. Dou smiled at the woman in rose-red brocade clothes: "Mrs. Dai is really a noble lady and busy with things. It is always not easy to ask you to meet."

"What's the slave family busy with?"

The woman in rose-red brocade clothes had already taken off her hood, with a pair of upward-looking fox eyes that were still charming without any deliberate effort. Her calm tone of voice revealed a softness that could make a man's bones brittle.

Mr. Dou smiled on his face, but in his heart he was already so disdainful that he almost vomited.

She comes from a scholarly family, and she is most unaccustomed to this kind of flirting and getting ahead by making men happy.

But now in order to help Chu Nanxuan take care of things, she had to endure her nausea.

Who is this woman? She is the charming guest that the Minister of Dali Temple is holding in his hands, and the arms case is now held in the hands of the Minister of Dali Temple.

How could Mrs. Dai not see that Mr. Dou looked down on her?

But it's no big deal.

She just liked the way these ladies looked down on her, but still had to hold money and beg her to do things with a smiling face.

"Tell me." She asked with a smile, "What are your orders?"

"I don't dare to accept the order. I just have a small matter and I would like to ask Mrs. Dai for help." Mrs. Dou said, pushing the prepared envelope in front of Mrs. Dai.

"It's quite a thick pile." Mrs. Dai smiled at Mrs. Dou, opened the envelope and took a look at it without any hesitation, and raised her slender eyebrows: "Ah, 5 taels? The second lady is so generous."

Mrs. Dou felt even more disgusted when she saw her greedy look on her face, but the smile on her face became more and more beautiful, "Not much, I just ask Madam to say good things to Mr. Lu and take care of General Chu's affairs."

"I don't understand the affairs of the government, and I don't know what the problem is with General Chu." Mrs. Dai said, "It may be useless even if I say it."

"As long as Madam is willing to help." Dou smiled and said, "It's always useful."

The minister of Dali Temple is capable, but also a womanizer.

Mrs. Dai is his new favorite.

In the past two years, many people who had committed crimes in the hands of the Dali Temple Minister had their luck changed through this woman.

Only then did Mr. Dou turn his mind to this.

She took care of it here, and then Xie Zhaozhao asked Xie Wei to clear it, and Chu Nanxuan could be fished out no matter what.

Mrs. Dou had inquired about Mrs. Dai.

Even though he is just a toy, he is very greedy for money. Mr. Dou said in a persuasive way: "Don't worry, if it really works out, I will give you generous gifts."

"Really?" Mrs. Dai's smile became even bigger, her beauty was natural, "If that's the case, then——"

"Who are you, ah——"

Suddenly the maidservant's cry came from outside, and the next moment, there was a bang, and the door was kicked open from the outside.

Four well-dressed maidservants rushed in, and the screen fell to the ground with a crackle.

Mrs. Dou looked at the livid-faced Mrs. Yu and froze in place, "Sister-in-law—"

"Brainless idiot!" Mr. Yu has a fierce personality. He has already figured out the matter outside the door, and immediately yells: "Do you know what you are doing?"

"Hongxiu, go get the things back, and then ask the second lady to go home!" Yu ordered coldly.

Hong Xiu said "yes", stepped forward, took the envelope away from Mrs. Dai's hand, and led two maidservants to grab Aunt Chai who was next to Dou, and blocked her side.

Madam Dou gritted his teeth: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Can't I have tea with someone?"

"Drinking tea?" Yu sneered: "You treat everyone else as a fool, don't you? Either leave now, or I will have people drag you away. It's your choice!"
