Chapter 1,198: A Rough Lady I’ve Never Seen Before

In fact, from the appearance point of view, this woman is no different from other women. She is in her forties and looks very strong.

Just like the ordinary rough lady in the yard, but if you look closely, it is different. The clothes worn by the rough lady are not as good as this old lady.

If she hadn't been too stout, Shao Wanru would have guessed that she was a nanny who was in charge of things, but from the look of her big shoulders and round waist, she looked like a rough woman.

Very fat, big, and strong!

The other servants in Shao Jing's yard are very thin. Even the rough lady holding a broom is not as big as her. She is alone here. It can be seen that this is different from Shao Jing's usual appearance. Different hands are used.

Another point is that Shao Wanru has been back home for a while. When she returned to the house before, she was sure that she had never seen or heard of such a woman.

A woman like this, if she saw it, would definitely remember it. Even if she didn't see it, people around her would have heard about it and would definitely report it to her. She had asked Qing'er to keep an eye on Shao Jing's yard before, but she never did. Discover something unusual or someone unusual.

This woman must have entered the house recently, or she entered the house after she got married, so I knew nothing about her.

But this mother-in-law obviously didn't look like she had just entered the house. Seeing her passing by, there were people bowing to her along the way, which showed that her status was unusual. Shao Jing was a very suspicious person. He would not let a new person into the house. See It looks like a servant who cares about the mother-in-law as a confidant.

This person is very suspicious.

"Your Highness, I'm going out for a walk!" Shao Wanru stood up bored.

"Don't go too far, just take a look around, in case the king is leaving and can't find the princess!" Chu Liuchen waved his hand lazily with a bit of a smile.

"I know!" Shao Wanru nodded.

"Princess Chen, let's go and have a look in the yard in front. There are some new flowers planted there. Some have bloomed and some haven't. They are also close to here." Shao Jing suggested with a smile.

"Okay, I'll walk around here for a while and then go over and take a look." Shao Wanru said.

As he walked out with the two maids, Shao Jing frowned uncomfortably and suddenly strode to the door. He told the boy standing by the door, "Take Princess Chen to enjoy the scenery well and leave the courtyard in good condition." The servants inside all avoided to avoid bumping into Princess Chen."

"Master Marquis, this servant understands!" the young man said intelligently and retreated outside the door.

Shao Wanru came out. There were not many servants outside the door. A few maids and women saw Shao Wanru coming out, and they immediately stood up and saluted. After a while, the fat woman he saw before had already Gone.

Looking at the direction she just went, Shao Wanru walked casually. There was an attic over there, higher than the height of the entire yard. Shao Wanru had seen that attic from a distance before in her own yard.

"Princess, come here with the servant. The servant will take you to see the newly installed flowers. These were newly installed after the princess got married. The Marquis said that there are fewer and fewer people in the mansion. He watched several ladies get married one by one. When I went out, it was no longer lively, so I specially found someone to come over and plant a lot of flowers."

The boy stepped forward smartly and smiled.

These words are very pleasing to people, and they also explain Shao Jing's sudden behavior of planting flowers. This kind of thing used to be a matter of concern to the inner courtyard. A man can't always pay attention to the matter of planting flowers and grass!

"What's there?

"Yu Jie narrowed her eyes and, following Shao Wanru's hint, pointed in the direction of the attic.

"There are just some sundries there, nothing good, not even suitable for people to live in." The boy said with a smile, and then stepped out, "Princess, please come with me, the courtyard is very close to here."

Shao Wanru looked up at the attic. The curtains on the attic were tightly closed and he couldn't see what was inside. It was just an attic, so there was no one there.

A scene suddenly flashed through her mind. She seemed to have seen the light here in the dark night. Was it coming from this attic or somewhere else?

After all, they are far apart, and it is easy to mistake the distance between the near and far. It may be here or it may not be here.

She took a deep breath, knowing that even if she wanted to explore, she wouldn't be able to explore. There was no justifiable reason. How could she, a niece, go check her uncle's house, even if it was a utility room.

"Let's go and take a look!" He said lightly with a slight curl of the corners of his lips.

She could be regarded as helping Jiang Family today, helping Jiang Family hold off Shao Jing. The longer the delay was, the more troublesome Jiang Family would become...

They went to the courtyard on Shao Jing's right, which was empty. Shao Wanru had never been to these places before.

Shao Jing is Shao Wanru's second uncle. On the one hand, Shao Wanru is wary, and on the other hand, because there is nothing to see here, Shao Jing did not expect to have a yard now.

Thinking about it carefully, the courtyards surrounding the courtyard where Shao Jing lived were all empty.

However, there are few masters in the Xingguo Hou Mansion. The previous head was the second bedroom. The third bedroom was far away and could not be a threat. The big house was not big. Almost all the yard was in the hands of the second bedroom. Shao Jing wanted to live more comfortably so as not to be disturbed by others. , vacating several surrounding yards is not a big deal.

Shao Wanru knew about this pattern when he was at the Xingguo Hou Mansion and didn't take it seriously.

But now I feel a little more confused for no reason.

There are indeed many flowers in the yard, which were just planted. There are also a few bushes placed not far away, making the original yard full of life.

It is summer time, and there are no fragrant spring flowers, but there are still some heat-resistant flowers blooming in the sun, and the scenery is quite beautiful.

"When did the second uncle ask someone to decorate it? It's really good!" Shao Wanru admired it and asked casually as he walked.

"The Marquis also thought of it by chance. He thought that by setting it up here, he could walk around and take a look when he was tired. It would be very pleasing to the eye." The boy replied, leading the way in front of Shao Wanru with obsequiousness.

"Go and have a rest over there. The princess is not from another family, and she doesn't know the way." Yujie impatiently pointed to a pavilion not far away and said, "You are tired from running around. We It will be even more tiring for the princess to run with you."

"The slave is walking slowly. The Marquis asked the slave to accompany the princess. If the princess dislikes the slave, how can the slave go back to the slave?" The servant looked sad and felt aggrieved.

"Don't worry, if we don't tell or you don't tell, no one will know." Yu Jie curled her lips and said nonchalantly.

"How could no one know? This mansion is full of people. Even if we don't say anything, someone will definitely see it and tell the Marquis. Sister Yujie, just have mercy on me. Don't send me away. , Lord Marquis has prepared a plan for me, so I don’t dare to be lazy."

The boy said pitifully.

"Yujie, don't embarrass him, just

Take him with you! "Shao Wanru opened his mouth to relieve the young man.

"Thank you, Princess Chen. Thank you, Princess Chen." The young man was overjoyed and saluted repeatedly. Seeing his eager look, he provoked many masters and servants.

The weather was really hot. After walking a few steps, Shao Wanru went to the pavilion and sat down.

"Go and get a pot of water and a cup. We, the princess, will rest here for a while and enjoy the flowers." Yu Jie instructed the servant.

The young man saw them sitting down and no longer moving around casually. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'll get it right away."

After saying that, he ran out quickly. This place is close to the Marquis's yard, so naturally he had to go to the Marquis's yard to get things.

"Qing'er, have you seen that rough lady from before?" Shao Wanru's eyes fell on the bushes in front of him, but he spoke to Qing'er.

"Princess, I didn't notice it just now." Qing'er shook her head in shame. She had been following the princess at that time. She only paid attention to the people in the room and didn't notice the window. When the princess pulled her sleeves to give her a hint, By the time, that person had disappeared.

"Princess, this slave saw it." Yu Jie said. She was in the same direction as Shao Wanru. Seeing Shao Wanru's eyes falling outside the window, and she was quite confused, she took another look. At first glance, The old woman was also shocked to see such a big woman.

"Have you ever heard of such a woman in Shao Jing's yard before?" Shao Wanru asked with her eyelashes fluttering.

If she saw such a person, the maid next to her would have reported it to her early, so she must have never seen him before.

"This slave has never heard of someone who is so fat and has such a thick waist. He looks like he has a lot of strength. Not to mention that the Marquis's courtyard has never heard of such a person, not even the entire Xingguo Marquis Mansion. I have heard of such a person." Yujie said quickly, "If I see such a strong woman, I will definitely tell the princess. It looks like she is stronger than this slave!"

He was tall and round, and looked as if he had a lot of strength. He felt indescribably weird.

"Princess, I just saw a woman outside the courtyard gate looking here and there. Although she was very secretive and didn't seem to be paying much attention, the woman's eyes squinted over from time to time. One look and she knew she was Staring at the residence of Marquis Xingguo, I don’t know whether he is staring at us or Marquis Xingguo!”

Qing'er remembered what happened to another very ordinary woman she saw outside the courtyard gate just now, and reminded Shao Wanru.

"It's not staring at us, it should be staring at Shao Jing." Shao Wanru shook his head. The madam showed up again and planned to scheme against him with Shao Jing. At this time, whether it was the madam or Shao Jing, He didn't dare to let people stare at him, just for fear that things would be discovered by him. If someone was staring at him outside the courtyard gate, it would most likely be Zhao Xiran.

Shao Wanru didn't intend to make a guess here, but he guessed the matter very well.

After watching it for a while, the waiter hurried back and brought the teapot and teacup. After placing them on the table, he stood aside with his hands down and did not start directly. This was very polite.

Yu Jie poured a cup of tea and placed it on the stone table. Shao Wanru took it and was about to drink it.

Qing'er wanted to stop her, but saw that she had already swallowed a sip of tea into her throat, and anxiously waved her hand secretly.

Shao Wanru shook his head calmly at her. Shao Jing could not harm her at this time. Chu Liuchen was still sitting in Shao Jing's yard...

Calculate the time is almost...
