good meal

Chapter 339
Xiao Guozi looked innocent, and said: "You just say that the slave is not good enough, the wife will not believe your words if she sees that you are empty-handed!" Before her mother got angry, she laughed and said, "Mom, don't be angry, Xiao Guozi was joking with you."

Seeing her mother's pale face, Xiao Guozi obediently gave her a few things in her hand, and at the same time, under cover, she also handed over a heavy piece of silver. With a smile on her face, she said: "Mom, anyway, everything I bought it, one more thing is worse than one less thing. If the servant doesn’t say anything wrong about you, you don’t want to criticize the servant, don’t you think this is good?”

Feeling the thing in her hand, she weighed it, and her mother also laughed and said, "What you said is also reasonable." But she snorted coldly in her heart. She was worried about having no proof before, but now this piece of silver is the ironclad proof.It's really abnormal for a maid to be so generous, and she must tell her wife about it when she goes back.

Xiao Guozi didn't know that she had exposed her secrets. She usually saw her lady pay for it with silver, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with what she did.After returning to the mansion to make a errand, Xiao Guozi served Yun Shanshan to rest in the back room.

While Wu Shi was listening to her mother's report outside, looking at the silver ingots on the table, she looked thoughtful.

"Ma'am, it's really suspicious that this maid gave five taels of silver. It's a pity that the old slave couldn't keep up with her, and I don't know what she did..." After talking about it, my mother lost her confidence. Or her dereliction of duty.

"Mom is also troubled. Since this money is for you, you can keep it." Wu Shi said, pushing the silver ingot forward.

Mom hurriedly waved her hands and said, "Madam, how can this old slave accept this money."

Wu Shi didn't have the time to be polite to her, and didn't say much, she turned her head and asked about the meal preparation:
After her mother collected the money and left, Wu couldn't help but fell into deep thought again.

Although the Yun family has gained a foothold in the capital, there are only a handful of families who have close contacts. Today, my sister-in-law is like this, which family will she ask for help?If those families are familiar, Xiao Guozi must have sent someone to pass the message after he left the house.

But at this time, there was no news at all, and it seemed that they were not the usual ones.

If it weren't for those people, who else could my sister-in-law talk to?In Kyoto, a place full of nobles, Yun Wanwan's daughter, who is still a businesswoman when she goes out, is not enough to attract people's attention.

After thinking about it, Mrs. Wu still asked people to check to see which family members were near the place where Xiao Guozi went today.

After this investigation, the second lady of Wen's mansion was exposed, and Wu's expression could not help but be a little solemn when she thought of what her mother said about being blocked by the second lady Wen and did not catch Xiao Guozi.

When did Second Miss Wen get so close to her sister-in-law? She didn't notice it at all.

The other family surprised Wu even more. She never expected that Yun Shanshan would meet Xiao Daban who is now very popular in the capital and even in the palace.

It would be fine if the Wen family intervened, but if Daban Xiao intervened, then it would be wrong. After all, Daban Xiao could speak well in front of the empress. Big mistake.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Wu couldn't sit still, got up and went to find her father-in-law.

Yun Wanwan's subordinates hadn't finished their accounts yet, when they heard that Mrs. Wu was here, they just thought it was Yun Shanshan who had lost her temper again, and immediately became a little impatient, thinking that this daughter-in-law would be able to do it when she didn't have time to come in.

However, he didn't ignore it, he just ordered people to invite Mrs. Wu to drink tea in the ear room next door first, and his abacus was played quickly in order to get a quick solution.

After counting the book in his hand, Yun Wanwan got up, put on his robe and went to the ear room.

Seeing Yun Wanwan, Wu, who was already fidgeting, hurriedly said, "Elder-in-law, it's not good."

Glancing at his daughter-in-law, Yun Wanwan said unhurriedly: "Talk slowly about something, what does it look like in a panic? How many times have I said it, if the heart is still, the chaos will lead to confusion."

Wu shi hurriedly calmed down, and tried to explain the serious relationship in a calm tone.

When he heard that Yun Shanshan had a relationship with Xiao Mingyue, Yun Wanwan couldn't sit still anymore, he got up and walked slowly in the room, asking, "Have you found out? Shanshan really knows that person?"

"It's absolutely true, Eunuch, you also know how important Xiao Daban is in front of the queen, if he really opens his mouth, I'm afraid it will be as Shanshan wants." Wu said eagerly, "Eunuch, think quickly Think about it."

"Don't be in a hurry." Yun Wanwan raised his hand and speculated, "Shanshan is a girl, there is no chance to see Daban Xiao, maybe she just did this on purpose to make us anxious."

There is some truth in this statement, but Wu Shi felt that the matter was not so simple, she asked: "If not, what should I do?"

After a moment of pondering, Yun Wanwan said: "It seems that I have to go there, you take care of Shanshan."

Wu Shi nodded solemnly, and then returned to her yard.

Before entering the room, I heard Yun Shanshan's coquettish voice: "Brother, where have you been these days? Shanshan misses you."

Mrs. Wu glanced at the maid who was guarding the door. The maid lowered her head and said, "Madam, the uncle is back."

Looking away, Mrs. Wu pushed open the door, seeing Yun Shanshan's intimacy holding Yun Dalang's arm, she felt a little uncomfortable.It's strange to say, if in the past, seeing them like this, Wu would at most make fun of them, but today she feels bored, so don't worry about it.

Hearing the sound of opening the door, Yun Dalang raised his head, and when he saw Wu Shi, who was still smiling, his face changed, and his voice became a little lower: "You're back?"

Mrs. Wu blessed her body a little, and asked, "Why do you have time to come back and take a look, Husband?"

"If I don't come back, I don't know that you have done so many things!" Yun Dalang raised his voice and waited for Wu Shi to say, "You keep saying that you want to treat Shanshan like your own sister, but what did you do when I was not around?" ? But I trusted you, woman!"

Wu's face was astonished, and she looked at Yun Shanshan who was timidly hiding behind Yun Dalang, and there was a bang in her head.She never expected that sister-in-law would sue her husband.And Yun Dalang actually stood on Shanshan's side this time, and turned around to accuse her of something wrong.

Reminiscent of her fear and her good intentions, Wu suddenly felt that everything she did was meaningless.

Seeing Yun Dalang's face of accusation, she finally sneered: "Your husband might as well tell this concubine, what's wrong with my concubine to Shanshan?"

Unexpectedly, his always gentle wife would actually contradict him. Yun Dalang was a bit uncomfortable, but he was a man after all, and he couldn't lose face, so he said with a straight face, "Do you want me to tell you what you did?"

"Brother, forget it, Shanshan understands that sister-in-law is doing it for Shanshan's own good." Yun Shanshan held Yun Dalang's arm and said with concern.
