Rong Huanyao was taking several noble ladies to visit the scenery of the Marquis' Mansion.
Seeing the maid on the other side, she raised the corners of her lips slightly.
"Ladies, let's go over there and take a look."
When she and her group passed by Rong Xuqing's yard, she said that she heard some noise inside, so she took the ladies in to see what was going on.
"Ah...it hurts, be gentle..."
As soon as I came in, I heard a delicate cry of pain accompanied by heavy gasps coming from the half-open door.
The ladies gasped and their eyes widened.
They looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
That was the sound just now, didn’t they hear it right?
Rong Huanyao was ecstatic, it seemed that she had succeeded.
The next moment, the sound of a chair falling to the ground was heard.
Rong Huanyao pretended to be worried.
"Maybe something happened. Let's go and take a look."
As she spoke, she quickly stepped onto the stairs.
The ladies behind hurried to catch up with gossip in their eyes.
With a bang, Rong Huanyao pushed the door open with great force.
"Xuqing, what happened..."
The last word got stuck in my throat.
Rong Huanyao stood there in a daze.
She didn't see the scene she wanted.
I didn't see Tian Luowen and Rong Xuqing being affectionate in the room.
I didn't see that the two of them were in disheveled clothes.
There were only... Rong Xuqing and her third aunt inside, applying medicine to her hands?
At this moment, both of them were staring at her.
"Miss in-laws?" Yu Yan looked at Rong Huanyao and asked in confusion, "Why are you here?"
Then he looked at the group of people following behind her, "Why did you bring so many people here...? What are you doing?"
She narrowed her dark brown eyes, and the cold light in them shot towards Rong Huanyao like a sharp sword.
Yu Yan was originally a man of the underworld. He had lived a life of fighting and killing since he was a child, and he had a terrifying evil aura about him.
At this moment, his half-closed eyes looked as if he wanted to kill someone.
Rong Huanyao was a young lady who had been raised in seclusion. She had never seen anything like this before and subconsciously took two steps back in fear.
"I... I just heard some noise inside, so I came in to take a look..."
"Is Xuqing okay? How did your hand get hurt? Did a thief break in?"
As she spoke, she slowly walked into the inner room and looked around, but there was no sign of anyone else.
Tian Luowen didn’t come?
What a loser! He couldn't even seize such a good opportunity!
"I accidentally fell when I entered the door." Rong Xuqing replied calmly: "What are you looking for, little aunt?"
"No, I didn't find anything..." Rong Huanyao immediately turned around and said in a relaxed manner, "I'm glad you're okay. Then I'll take the ladies for a walk around."
"Why are there so many people here?"
At this moment, a panting voice came from outside the door.
Everyone immediately looked outside and automatically made way.
Yan Zhu's chest and abdomen were heaving violently, but he looked calm. He held his hands and asked:
"Why are all the ladies here in the deserted backyard instead of having their meal in the front yard?"
When the host is hosting a banquet in the front yard and the guests run to the backyard without permission, it is considered rude.
Yan Zhu naturally didn't need to be nice to them.
They were all well-known people and knew that their current behavior was inappropriate. Faced with the questioning in Yan Zhu's tone, they did not get angry, but felt a little ashamed.
Originally, a few people had been drinking at the table and agreed to go out to the toilet.
Rong Huanyao invited them to visit the Marquis's Garden, and they arrived here while strolling.
Everyone looked at Rong Huanyan.
"I brought the ladies here."
Rong Huanyao explained, walked out of the room, and asked sternly:
"Yanzhu, how do you speak to guests? Is this the etiquette that your sister-in-law taught you?"
"Etiquette is for those who observe it."
Yan Zhu was concerned about Rong Xuqing and didn't want to get entangled with her, so he walked past her and went straight inside.
Seeing Madam Qin San beside Rong Xuqing, he immediately felt relieved.
Yan Zhu turned to look at Rong Huanyao and asked sternly:
"Excuse me, Miss Huanyao, why did you bring people into Miss Xuqing's courtyard? What do you want to do? Or...what do you want them to see?"
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
The ladies in these deep mansions are all shrewd people, so how could they not understand?
Isn’t this a typical adultery scene?
What garden tour? They were just being used as cannon fodder!
It would be fine if I could eat the melon, but now not only can I not eat it, I am about to get into trouble.
"Miss Rong is really something. I haven't even had two bites of my meal yet, and she insisted on bringing us out to enjoy the scenery."
"Yeah, yeah, after walking a few steps, I'm hungry again. Let's go back..."
They can still tell who is more important, Rong Huanyao or Rong Xuqing.
After a few words, they pushed the blame onto Rong Huanyao and quickly left the place of trouble.
Rong Huanyao glared at those people with gritted teeth.
"Aunt," Rong Xuqing asked, "In the middle of the banquet, you took the guests to the backyard. Could it be that, like Grandmother, you ate poisonous mushrooms, had hallucinations, and are now confused?"
"You brought people to the backyard and barged in. Do you want to make those ladies lose face, or do you want to... harm me?"
Her tone was extremely calm, not like a question, but more like a normal conversation.
"you……"
Rong Huanyao was about to scold her for being disrespectful to her elders, but when she saw Yu Yan staring at her coldly, she immediately fell silent.
"Why are you guessing? I'm just helping you greet the guests out of kindness."
After saying that, she turned and left, leaving behind the words "You don't know what's good for you".
"Miss, are you okay?" Yan Zhu only then noticed the bandage on Rong Xuqing's hand. "How did you get hurt? Was it that man..."
Yan Zhu's hands trembled with anger.
It’s all her fault for running too slowly!
"I'm fine, I just accidentally fell and twisted my ankle." Rong Xuqing comforted him, "My aunt-in-law arrived in time, and I didn't run into that person."
At that time, she had just reached the door when Yu Yan suddenly jumped down from the roof and stopped her.
Then I heard the sound of something heavy falling in the house.
When they pushed open the door, they saw only shaking windows.
"Oh right." Rong Xuqing asked, "Who is that person?"
Yu Yan shook her head. "Your uncle took it away. I didn't see it either."
…
"Master Xiao Qin, is it really appropriate to put it here?"
Tang took a look at the woman's dress in the closet and quickly lowered his head.
This is Rong Huanyao’s boudoir.
"What's inappropriate about that! The brat crawled under Xu Qing's bed and even fell asleep in it!"
Qin Mingyi stabbed him with his knife again to vent his anger, then threw him in and closed the wardrobe.
After finishing it, he continued, "She wants to sully Xuqing's innocence, so why can't I just put the blame on her?"
"Master Xiao Qin, Brother Yi, someone is coming, let's go quickly." Lin San shouted softly outside the window.
The two of them quickly climbed out the window.
As soon as I returned to the front yard, I heard someone shouting in panic: "There's a thief in the house, come quickly, there's a thief in the house."
Qin Mingyi, Tang Yi and Lin San looked at each other.
It was discovered so quickly?
