Chapter 345 Savior!?
This is an area that is extremely easy to be overlooked.
Ordinary noble families do not have laundry rooms, but some noble families must have such places.
For example, the Lin family, although they have fallen into decline, they still have the mansion they should have.
The Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion is not only large, but also has many people, so a laundry room is absolutely indispensable.
After determining the location, Lin Zhiqing inevitably felt some worries.
The butterfly model is quite complicated, and the laundry room is in a special location. If Lin Shian escapes, can he find their location accurately?
Similarly, Lin Yangyang also thought of this problem.
She was not worried about Lin Shian's safety, because as long as Jiang Yunhe did not take action personally, Lin Shian would definitely be able to escape with his martial arts skills.
But they were hiding in such a complicated laundry room. It was a big question whether Lin Shian could analyze their location and find them.
Lin Yangyang thought about this and couldn't help but sigh:
"Hey, if only Lu Huai knew about this. With his numerology ability, he would definitely be able to find us."
After she finished speaking, she covered her mouth again as if guilty, and then looked at Lin Zhiqing secretly.
Her mouth was faster than her brain, and she forgot that Lu Huai and Lin Zhiqing were in a cold war.
Lin Zhiqing's expression did not show any abnormality. She acted as if she had not heard anything and spoke lightly:
"Don't worry, if my cousin can't find this place, you can find a chance to take me out."
"Although this method is a bit risky, it can help us get out of this predicament, so the reputation is nothing."
Lin Yangyang understood what Lin Zhiqing meant: "If you ask me, my father has been completely outmaneuvered by the despicable father and son of the Jiang family."
"They're convinced my father is a stubborn old man who sticks to etiquette. They're afraid of ruining our reputation, so they don't dare to speak out."
"In my opinion, can fame be eaten?"
Although Lin Zhiqing knew that Lin Yangyang didn't care about reputation, this was the first time the two of them had discussed the matter seriously.
She nodded and said, "Yes, you and I have both suffered greatly from it, so naturally we don't care about it."
"But my uncle and his friends have been influenced by other people's ideas and believe that a woman's reputation is very important."
"Besides, he values the Lin family, and naturally he also values the Lin family's reputation. He can't make the decision, but we can control our own destiny."
Lin Zhiqing said this very seriously, and Lin Yangyang listened very seriously.
She nodded: "Sister Qing, I always thought you were different from others, but now it seems that you understand me."
"You're right. Now that we know our approximate location, we can get out on our own even if Shi'an doesn't come looking for us."
Then, she reacted all of a sudden:
"Sister Qing, have you already thought of a solution in case Shi'an doesn't come to you?"
Lin Zhiqing shook his head: "I'm not some fortune teller, how could I possibly predict this?"
“All my judgments are based on the current situation.”
"That's amazing, Sister Qing. How can I have a brain like yours?" Lin Yangyang expressed her envy.
"Then I also want one of your bodies." Lin Zhiqing was also very envious of Lin Yangyang's martial arts skills.
Everyone has something they are good at, this is an eternal truth.
Just when Lin Zhiqing wanted to say something, Lin Yangyang's expression suddenly became serious, and she signaled Lin Zhiqing not to speak.
Then she moved quickly, walked forward, and put her ear to the south wall.
Lin Zhiqing immediately realized that the direction was the laundry yard.
She also imitated Lin Yangyang and put her ear against the wall.
Soon, two footsteps reached their ears. Although they were extremely faint, Lin Zhiqing and Lin Yangyang both heard them!
Lin Yangyang frowned. "One of the footsteps belongs to Jiang Liuyun. I've fought him before, so I recognize him."
"But the other footsteps sounded familiar, I couldn't quite place them."
Lin Yangyang didn't hear it, but Lin Zhiqing did.
She pursed her lips slightly.
Another sound of footsteps came from Lu Huai.
How did he get here?
Lin Yangyang only felt that the footsteps were sometimes close and sometimes far away, as if someone was pacing in the yard.
A glimmer of hope ignited in her eyes: "Sister Qing, do you think someone is coming to rescue us?"
"I don't know." Lin Zhiqing took a deep breath.
She really didn't know the purpose of Lu Huai's appearance here.
Could it be that the Ministry of Revenue has another case to handle?
Or, was he really here to find them?
These thoughts kept rolling around in Lin Zhiqing's mind, but before she could figure out what was going on, the sound of laundry was suddenly heard outside.
Lin Zhiqing narrowed his eyes and put Lu Huai aside for the time being:
"Cousin, there was a sudden sound of laundry outside. It must have been arranged by Jiang Liuyun. He didn't want others to hear or notice that we were calling for help!"
Realizing this, Lin Yangyang took a step back, made a trumpet shape with his hands, and shouted outside:
"Help, there's someone in here, help!"
Lin Zhiqing did not stop him. She was not sure why Lu Huai came here, but she would not give up the chance to escape because of the conflict between the two sides, so she also started shouting.
At the same time, Lu Huai looked at the people washing clothes and frowned slightly:
"Prince Jiang, do all the laundry people here start work at this time?"
Jiang Liuyun had just had a conflict with Lu Huai and was feeling very angry. However, when he thought about the person hiding in the laundry room, he patiently spoke:
"Shouldn't the Ministry of Revenue's duties include dictating when others do their laundry?"
"It certainly doesn't include it, but it does include the search for the imperial gift. The maids' behavior of washing clothes has already affected me."
Jiang Liuyun narrowed his eyes slightly: "Everyone says that Master Lu is a well-mannered and polite person who doesn't easily embarrass others. Now it seems that the news outside cannot be taken seriously."
"You searched for the imperial gift, did you use your ears? Even if the washing noise was loud, how could it bother you?"
Lu Huai was completely unmoved: "I am the main officer in charge of this search. If I say it has an impact, then it has an impact."
"If you have any objections, Prince Jiang, you can report them to the Ministry of Revenue or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but today, these voices must stop."
Lu Huai's tone was light and his voice was low, but anyone could hear that he was full of majesty.
Even Jiang Liuyun couldn't think of any rebuttal for a moment.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a long time before Jiang Liuyun waved to the servants of Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.
Soon, the sound of washing clothes stopped.
What followed was the sound of wind.
Lu Huai's clothes fluttered as he looked at the house in front of him.
