Chapter 396 Where are you from? Where is your father?
Letting them live here must be to take care of the mother and daughter, and giving up his own residence to them.
Didn't we just talk about witnesses? They might be involved in some serious crime, or even have a blood feud.
"Doctor Jiang, how do you know me?" asked Mrs. Zhou.
She then remembered that when Jiang Lianzhu went out, no one introduced her to anyone.
Jiang Lianzhu smiled faintly and said, "I guessed it when I heard you talking outside just now. When I opened the door and saw that such a wealthy lady coming to the Six Gates at this time, I guess the only one who could come here is Governor Liao's mother."
After hearing this, Mrs. Zhou dispelled her doubts.
Nanbao looked at her curiously with her big eyes rolling around, "Madam, you are so beautiful. Your clothes are shining, and you are shining too."
Jiang Lianzhu frowned. This little girl's flattery skills started to work again. The effect was immediate and good. Mrs. Zhou, who had been gloomy at first, couldn't help but smile at her daughter. "The little girl is very well behaved. Come, give her a reward."
The little girl looks cheerful, with big eyes and a round face. She is lively and cute, about three or four years old. If her son gets married, he will probably have a granddaughter this big and this cute.
The nanny took out a small bag of silver ingots and rewarded Nanbao with a silver ingot weighing about half a tael.
Nanbao leaned on Jiang Lianzhu's shoulder and shook her head. "Thank you, Madam. My mother told me not to ask for other people's things casually. My father also taught us that there is no reward without merit..."
The nurse who gave the reward frowned, "How dare you refuse this reward from our mistress?"
Nanbao was not afraid of her at all. "My parents taught me that I should not accept gifts without merit. Old Nanny, can't you hear me clearly? I don't necessarily have to accept what others give me, madam, don't you agree?"
Mrs. Zhou couldn't help but look at the child with admiration. He had personality and was very picky. Although a small silver ingot was used to reward servants, it was not for ordinary servants. It was only given on important occasions.
Many children beg for it but cannot get it. Adults and children are all happy to get it. This is a silver ingot specially made by the Qingning Marquis Mansion. One weighs only half a tael, but it can be exchanged for one or two taels of silver outside. It is of good quality, good shape and good meaning.
As a result, the little girl didn't want it.
"Don't scare the child. If you don't want it, then don't."
He smiled at Nanbao and said, "You are a clever little girl. Your father taught you well. By the way, where are you from? Where is your father?"
As he said this, he looked into the yard. Perhaps his son Liao Jiu gave this yard to the little girl and her family to live in.
With all this commotion going on, is the man in charge of their family still hiding?
Then Nanbao said again, "My father...my father...ran away with another bad woman!" As she said this, she spread her hands.
A helpless tone.
Everyone was stunned, looking at the mother and daughter with sympathy. The man ran away? Only the widow and the daughter were left?
At this moment, a messenger guard rushed down the corridor and shouted, "Commander-in-Chief Zuo, the Governor has returned!"
Mrs. Zhou and her group's attention was immediately drawn away, and they no longer paid attention to the widow and orphan whose man ran away with the bad woman.
The nurse led Madam Zhou out, "Come on, Madam, let's go to the front hall."
"Let's go." Mrs. Zhou turned around and walked away.
Before leaving, he looked back at Jiang Lianzhu and her daughter several times...
Jiang Lianzhu returned her gaze with a smile, without any dodging or fear, and was very graceful.
This feeling made Mrs. Zhou a little unhappy again.
This woman's gaze was too presumptuous. She didn't distinguish between high and low. How could common people like them look directly at a noble?
Isn't this just looking down on her, Mrs. Zhou?
He didn't have time to think about it anymore. His son was back, so he had to see him first. After Madam Zhou and her group left, the messenger guard rushed over to Xiang Zuo and whispered something in his ear.
Xiang Zuo whispered to Jiang Lianzhu, "Doctor Jiang, our governor has already petitioned the emperor to reinvestigate the case. The emperor and the governor have now secretly come to the Six Gates and are in the front hall. The emperor wants to see the young prince of Prince Xiang. What do you think?"
When Madam Zhou was making trouble just now, Nanny Cheng, Dabao, and Erbao didn't come out. Jiang Lianzhu knew that Dabao and Erbao had returned to the capital to avoid suspicion. Before the truth was revealed, they tried to avoid as many people as possible, just in case someone recognized Dabao.
Nanny Cheng didn't come out, maybe because she is old and not feeling well.
Jiang Lianzhu didn't expect Liao Jiu to progress so quickly!
People thought he was going to be thrown into jail, but he tricked Xuanhuang into coming to the Six Gates.
It can be seen that Xuanhuang really trusts him.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be the Xuanhuang sneaking into the Six Gates, but Liao Jiu being captured and thrown into the Heavenly Prison, and the Imperial Guards coming to the Six Gates and forcibly taking Dabao and the others away...
This is Jiang Lianzhu's worst plan.
She was somewhat relieved that it didn't come to this.
"Okay, I'll take Dabao and the others over."
Jiang Lianzhu went into the yard and told Dabao and the others. Dabao stood up without saying a word and followed Jiang Lianzhu.
Erbao and Nanbao also followed, and they both felt solemn.
Before leaving, Nanny Cheng hesitated to speak, "Doctor Jiang, please be careful."
When Jiang Lianzhu spoke, she avoided Nanny Cheng. She didn't know what they were going to do, but she seemed to be able to sense something unusual, so she came out and explained this.
It seemed like she had good intentions. Jiang Lianzhu nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for your concern, Ma'am."
Then, holding her daughter, she took Dabao and Erbao out of the yard, followed Xiang Zuo, and went to the front hall after many twists and turns.
Seeing Mrs. Zhou and her group from afar, they retreated from the front hall in panic, walked directly out of the gate of six doors, and left without stopping for a moment.
Glancing to the left, he realized that this was probably because Madam Zhou, out of her deep love for her son, had been so arrogant and trespassing that she ran into the Xuan Emperor...
He glanced at Dr. Jiang beside him.
Although Doctor Jiang is young, he is much calmer than the older Mrs. Zhou.
If Doctor Jiang really becomes the mistress of their house in the future, he believes that the Marquis's Mansion will surely prosper. A capable and sensible wife is much more suitable than those noble ladies who only have status and position and are unaware of the dangers of the world and rely on their masters for protection.
The master's vision is indeed good!
However, Doctor Jiang's origins are unknown, and the Xiangwang Mansion faces many difficulties in redressing the injustice. If they are not careful, their master will be doomed...
Arriving at the side room in the front hall, he said, "Doctor Jiang, please wait a moment. I'll go in and report."
Jiang Lianzhu nodded in thanks.
