Chapter 132 Ji Sheng Disappears
Zhou Yunshu's tone was very harsh. Although He Nian Zhang knew that what Kang Jingyu did was not right, Zhou Yunshu's words were too humiliating to Kang Jingyu.
But Kang Jingyu was not angry at all. Instead, he said seriously, "I have been to the northern border. It's just a pity that I am the only child in my family. My father and my senior brothers refused to let me go to the front line."
As he spoke, he sighed, "If only my parents had tried harder to give me a second brother."
Zhou Yunshu: “…”
He Niazhang: "..."
So, there is a reason why Lord Kang sometimes gets so angry at Kang Jingyu that he wants to hit someone, right?
"Besides, I think I'm quite valuable. Instead of wasting my life on the battlefield and adding to the corpses, I might as well do something more meaningful."
Kang Jingyu said to Zhou Yunshu, "I apologize to you, my lady. I didn't play a trick on you. I just wanted to find out if you are someone I know."
"Do you think you can put others in an embarrassing or even reputational situation just to figure it out?"
Zhou Yunshu put down her veil and looked at Kang Jingyu across from her and said, "Then does that mean I can ask you to do whatever I want?"
"If it can help my wife calm down, Zixian is willing to do so."
"Then please stay away from me, sir."
After saying that, Zhou Yunshu looked at Jiang Rusi, "Ms. Jiang."
Jiang Rusi, who was finally remembered, glanced at He Nianzhang. After seeing He Nianzhang nod to her, she said to Zhou Yunshu, "Mrs. Wu, please come this way."
Kang Jingyu looked at the departing dark purple and said with a bit of disappointment, "No one has ever said this to me before."
He Nianzhang looked at Kang Jingyu and took a breath silently, "Maybe it's because he knows your identity."
Kang Jingyu lowered his eyes, "Is that so."
…
Originally, Jiang Rusi booked a small private room, but when He Nian Zhang learned that she was entertaining the person who saved his son on the passenger ship, he asked the owner of Zuixianlou to change them to a larger private room and put all their expenses into his own account.
After her rebirth, Zhou Yunshu had no habit of being served while eating.
In addition, she had just heard the doctor say that Zhan Chuan had not had a full meal for a long time, so before Zhan Chuan left to eat, she said to him: "Since it is Young Master He who is treating us today, you can order as much as you want and eat well."
Zhan Chuan's eyes lit up, he swallowed, nodded to Zhou Yunshu, and turned to leave.
Zhan Chuan left, but Chunque was still by Zhou Yunshu's side.
Jiang Rushi looked at Zhou Yunshu and waited for her to speak. After all, she had already called her maid out, and it would be inappropriate if Chunque was still there.
But Zhou Yunshu didn't. She sat down in front of the round table, looked at the table full of delicacies from land and sea, and said to Jiang Rusi: "I am a little hungry after walking around all morning."
She looked up at Jiang Rusi, "Miss Jiang, won't you sit down?"
Jiang Rusi looked at Chunque who was following closely behind Zhou Yunshu, and after thinking for a while, she swallowed her words about chasing Chunque away.
"Madam Wu, this time I would like you to..."
"Let's talk after dinner if you have anything to say." Zhou Yunshu waved to Chunque behind her, "Let's sit together."
Haruzae shook his head.
If there were no outsiders around, she would have sat down if her master had asked her to, but now that there were outsiders here, she couldn't overstep her bounds.
Seeing that Chunque didn't move, Zhou Yunshu took a clean bowl and plate and filled it with a large bowl of rice for her, added two pieces of Dongpo pork on top, and also picked up some vegetables from the plate for her.
"Go sit over there on the chair and eat. No need to watch over there."
"Okay, master!" Chunque happily took her food and went to eat, leaving behind Jiang Rusi with an indescribable expression and Zhou Yunshu who calmly picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
Jiang Rusi had something on her mind and had no appetite, but Zhou Yunshu and Chunque, the master and servant, were eating with relish. They could faintly hear Zhan Chuan ordering food outside the box.
"You have such a good appetite."
It must be said that these three people are worthy of being master and servants. Although there is nothing wrong with their etiquette, and it is even somewhat pleasing to watch Zhou Yunshu eat, which lady from a wealthy family would eat so much food?
In her memory, the ladies and young ladies never wanted to eat enough for the sake of their figure, but Zhou Yunshu in front of her didn't seem to care about that. She was about to eat most of the delicious dishes on the table slowly and steadily.
After Zhou Yunshu had eaten and drunk her fill, she rinsed her mouth slightly and said to Jiang Rusi, who was staring at her while she ate, "Excuse me."
"My appetite has increased significantly since I got pregnant."
Jiang Rusi nodded, afraid that Zhou Yunshu would do something weird again, so she said directly: "Madam, you took the map from me, right?"
"Map?" Zhou Yunshu looked puzzled as she held the black tea in her hand.
The doubt on Zhou Yunshu's face was too real. Jiang Rusi, who was originally very sure that the map on her body was taken away by Zhou Yunshu and her servant, was a little nervous for a moment.
"What map?" Zhou Yunshu took a sip of black tea and looked at Jiang Rusi, as if she didn't understand why she asked that.
Jiang Rusi laughed and said, "Mrs. Wu, stop pretending. The person who knocked us out was your maid. Who else could it be if she didn't take it away?"
Zhou Yunshu smiled slightly at Jiang Rusi's questioning tone, "Let's not talk about the fact that our Chunque is not the kind of person who would be short-sighted. Even if she were to take something, it would be your gold and silver jewelry. What use would a piece of scrap paper from who knows where be of?"
"Not to mention that our Chunque was only afraid that you would continue to attract the pirates, so we knocked you out. At that time, the pirates were on board and there were people everywhere. How can you say that we took it!"
"Or do you think we are easy to bully?" Zhou Yunshu leaned back in her chair, looking at Jiang Rusi coldly with a powerful aura.
Jiang Rusi swallowed her saliva and didn't know how to refute for a moment.
Zhou Yunshu has always been a person who will seize the opportunity and pursue the victory. Before Jiang Rusi could find words to refute, Zhou Yunshu spoke again.
"I've always been curious about one thing."
Jiang Rusi looked at Zhou Yunshu's eyes and her heart skipped a beat. She no longer had time to think about what she was going to refute.
"The pirates hadn't climbed to the second floor yet, so why did Miss Jiang run out and shout in advance?"
Zhou Yunshu smiled and said, "If you don't know, you might think Miss Jiang is colluding with the pirates to deliberately disrupt people's hearts."
"I don't!"
Jiang Rusi stood up suddenly, "Don't spit blood!"
She managed to fool people with great difficulty. Although she didn't know whether anyone in the He family believed her, at least the He family didn't send her back to the Jiang family.
"I grew up in seclusion, how could I possibly know a bandit who lives on the edge of a knife on the river? Madam Wu, be careful with your words!"
Zhou Yunshu raised the corner of her mouth, looked at Jiang Rusi who seemed to be furious, and said soothingly: "Maybe I am really thinking left."
"After all, Miss Jiang will become Madam He's wife in the future. How could she possibly ruin her own future?"
Jiang Rusi nodded, and Zhou Yunshu continued to ask: "I wonder what map Miss Jiang is talking about?"
"There's strength in numbers. Maybe if Miss Jiang tells me something, I can get some clues."
Jiang Rusi shut her mouth. She must be crazy to tell others about the map.
Now He Nian Zhang already knows that the map is lost. If he finds out that he lost it, neither the He family nor the Jiang family will let him go.
Fortunately, fortunately no one knew when she stole the map from He Zizhen.
As for her only wet nurse who knew about it...
Being able to die for yourself is a worthy death.
Jiang Rusi couldn't get the information she wanted from Zhou Yunshu, and was even almost tricked by her. She couldn't sit still any longer and stood up to say goodbye.
She had been out of the house for long enough, and if she didn't go back, she would definitely be criticized by that old lady, Madam He.
Why didn't she drag the old lady Madam He into the affair when her elder sister died?
Not long after Jiang Rusi left, Zhou Yunshu and Chunque also stood up and prepared to leave.
Zhan Chuan, who had not eaten yet, wanted to follow Zhou Yunshu, but was stopped by her.
"Let's go sit outside. You can eat here by yourself. When you're full, come downstairs and find us."
Zhanchuan thought about it and nodded. He was only half full.
As soon as Zhou Yunshu and Chunque went downstairs, they heard people downstairs saying that King Jisheng of Wei had disappeared after a tragic victory on the battlefield in the north because he had not received any support.
