Puying Lane, Jinyihou Mansion.
Jiang Yushu, whose injuries had almost healed, was sitting on the kang by the window, quietly embroidering flowers.
Xuezhi was sitting on a round stool beside her, helping her with the embroidery. She looked up several times to say something, but when she saw her young lady's expression, she swallowed the words back.
She didn't know how long it had been, but when she looked up again, she found that her young lady's expression was a little strange. She was inserting the needle very vigorously, and her brows were tightly furrowed with every insertion. It didn't look like she was embroidering, but rather as if she was embroidering a figurine.
Xuezhi was shocked to find that the flower, originally embroidered with yellow silk thread, had turned red, a dazzling bright red! And the blood on Jiang Yushu's fingers, which were placed under the embroidery cloth, had already flowed down to the back of his hand, looking particularly creepy!
"Miss!"
Xuezhi cried out in surprise, rushed forward and snatched the embroidery frame, angry and anxious. As soon as she opened her mouth, tears began to fall uncontrollably: "Miss, why are you doing this? You have endured all the setbacks in the past few years. Now, in a few days, you will be able to get married and no longer have to stay in the mansion. Now..."
Before she finished speaking, she hugged Jiang Yushu and started crying. Jiang Yushu looked dull. She didn't know why, but she felt that this life was extremely boring. She also didn't understand what she had been obsessed with for so many years.
It was as if she had been chasing something, and just when she was about to catch up, suddenly thick fog rose up and she couldn't see clearly.
"Miss, please don't be like this." Xuezhi sniffed and said with a thick voice: "If you die like this, I can't live alone, but..."
Xuezhi paused at this point and said, "But my family and my parents rely on my monthly salary to support them."
She had no other choice. If she didn't explain it clearly, she was afraid that the Second Young Lady wouldn't think about it. She could only beg the Second Young Lady like this.
Jiang Yushu lowered his eyes and suddenly smiled brilliantly, with mixed feelings in his smile.
She originally thought that Xuezhi was crying so sadly just because she felt sorry for her, but she didn't know that Xuezhi was also crying for herself.
Thinking that if she really committed suicide, none of the maids who served her would be in good condition, and those who served her closely would be doomed to death, Jiang Yushu raised her head, tears streaming down her eyes, and she couldn't describe the feeling in her heart.
But after that, she did give up the idea of ​​committing suicide, but not just because of the Xuezhi incident. Of course, that's all for later.
After the master and servant cried for a while, someone came to tell them that the eldest daughter went for a trip to Ming Lake today, accidentally fell off a boat and drowned, and has not been found yet.
The Jinyi Marquis Mansion was in an uproar when they heard the news.
Old Madam Jiang stood up in a panic and was about to order someone to prepare a car to go to Wang's house.
Fortunately, it was An Ru who reminded her: "Old Madam, if you go there like this, people who know will think you are worried and confused, and those who don't know will think that you are going to the Wang family to call for an explanation."
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Jiang finally sat back down, but she still pounded the headboard of the kang anxiously. "Why can't this family have a peaceful day? Among the three sisters, only Xuanxuan is the closest to me and is the most sensible. I was thinking, if it really doesn't work out, I should talk to the Marquis and ask him to keep Xuanxuan at home and find a son-in-law. That way, there will be someone to take charge of family affairs in the future, right?"
"Now that this has happened, if anything happens to my sister, the family will be in even greater chaos!"
An Ru knew everything, but she was a servant after all, so she couldn't say much. She could only persuade the old lady to calm down.
At this time, the maid outside announced, "The second young lady is coming!"
