Chapter 294 Pregnant Woman
"There's a fire behind you guys, don't you care?"
Zhou Yunshu looked at the steward who didn't care about the fire at the villa and asked.
The steward smiled and said, "That's the direction of the kitchen. The cook might have accidentally ordered something while making a dish. Don't worry, sir. There are several kitchens in the villa. It will definitely not delay you and your brothers from eating."
After the manager finished speaking, he turned his head with a gloomy look in his eyes.
Since they can drug all the people in the Summer Resort, they can still do it to these new arrivals.
The method doesn't have to be old-fashioned, as long as it's useful.
"Then you have a big heart."
Zhou Yunshu looked at the manager and said something with a double meaning.
She guessed that the thick smoke was caused by Chunque, but she didn't expect that these people would be so calm. Could it be that they had some hidden card?
The scenery of the Mountain Resort is extremely beautiful. Pavilions, towers, bridges and flowing water are hidden among the lush forests. Flowers are blooming all over the manor, and butterflies fly by from time to time.
If you can ignore the faint smell of fire and the slight smell of blood, this place can definitely be considered an excellent summer resort.
"Why are there so few people in the Summer Resort?"
Zhou Yunshu looked at Gan Zhiyong and others who followed the steward to stop the horses and carriages, and asked the steward who had been standing next to her.
"In reply to the envoy, there aren't many people in the Summer Resort. There are only about twenty people in total."
He was serious, like a real Summer Resort manager, and he cried to Zhou Yunshu, "If we don't reduce these people, we won't be able to take care of the entire Summer Resort. I'm thinking of reducing a few more people."
"You should know from outside that food is getting more and more expensive. If it keeps rising like this, we will have no choice but to ask our master for help."
Zhou Yunshu looked at the man who was pretending to be so serious and said with a smile: "Don't worry, when I return this time, I will definitely tell the prince about this matter."
The manager's eyes lit up, and he continued to say to Zhou Yunshu, "Will Geng Jiang, who occupied Nanchuan, also be sent troops to eliminate him?"
Zhou Yunshu looked at the manager's excited eyes and was sure in her heart that this group of people had nothing to do with Geng Jiang. Their eyes looked as if they wanted to kill Geng Jiang and his group immediately.
They hate Geng Jiang so much, could it be that they are the victims in Nanchuan?
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Zhou Yunshu shook her head. It shouldn't be the case. The bandit aura of the people next to her was not fake. They looked more like pirates who were killed by Geng Jiang.
"Since I've told the master, he will definitely send troops over."
After all, it has almost become a common knowledge that the King of Huainan has his own army and is very powerful.
While Zhou Yunshu was talking to the manager, Kang Jingyu suddenly pulled Wu Gui's sleeve.
Wu Gui looked at Kang Jingyu in confusion, and saw Kang Jingyu looking behind a rockery.
"Is that a person?"
Wu Gui followed Kang Jingyu's gaze and saw a pregnant woman and a little maid hurriedly entering a moon gate not far from the rockery.
This was the first woman they saw after they came in, and she was pregnant.
Wu Gui withdrew his gaze, somewhat unsure whether the woman just now was with this group of people who got there first, or whether they were originally from the Summer Resort.
If they were from the Summer Resort, they should be the women of the manager's family.
Yes, it is normal for some fish to slip through the net in such a big Summer Resort.
Just when Wu Gui was struggling over whether to find someone to rescue the master and servant, the steward had already led Zhou Yunshu and his party past Mingxin Lake, through the corridor, and finally arrived at the place where the banquet was to be held, Mingyue Tower.
Mingyue Tower has three floors in total, and the middle of the building is empty.
If someone shot arrows from the second or third floors, the people in the hall on the first floor would be shot into sieves.
So Zhou Yunshu led the group to the door, avoiding the sight of the second and third floors, and said to the manager, "It's too stuffy in here."
"I think the lawn outside Mingyue Lake is nice. Why not have a wine-drinking party there? It would be really fun."
The smile on the steward's face paused. He wanted to ask her what Qushui Liushang meant, but he was afraid of being exposed if he asked, so he could only say, "Your Excellency, it's not as quiet outside as inside."
"I like to eat while listening to the breeze and the sound of water."
The manager looked at Zhou Yunshu speechlessly: You're causing so much trouble just by eating. There's something wrong with you.
"Okay, then I'll have someone move the things out for you."
Zhou Yunshu nodded, but did not leave Mingyue Tower. Instead, she took Chu San, Wu Gui and others to the second floor and then to the third floor.
There were people on the second and third floors, but they had no weapons. Zhou Yunshu took a look and then looked away.
Zhou Yunshu pushed open the window on the third floor and instantly took in the entire summer resort.
She looked carefully and saw no suspicious people except Gan Zhiyong and others who were walking towards this side after tying up their horses.
At this time, the steward climbed up and saw Zhou Yunshu opening one window and trying to open another. He hurried forward to stop her and said, "Sir, the banquet is ready. Please follow me."
Zhou Yunshu turned around, and when she followed the steward downstairs, Wu Gui opened the window that she had not opened just now, and she just happened to see the other side of the Summer Resort.
Wu Gui saw the woman again, and also saw a man, a...
"You're not leaving?"
Kang Jingyu came to Wu Gui and saw her standing by the window looking outside in a daze, so he also looked outside.
It's just some colorful lights and shadows, nothing interesting to see.
"Walk."
Wu Gui turned around, frowned and shook his head when he thought of what he had just seen.
It seems that she has been with Kang Jingyu for too long, and her eyesight is not as good as before, so she even has hallucinations.
…
Zhou Yunshu sat on the grass beside Mingxin Lake and said to the steward who had been directing the servants to serve the dishes, "Do you have any wine?"
The steward raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "Yes, I will make sure you are full."
"Then what are you still standing there for? Go get it quickly. And by the way, call everyone from the farm over so we can have some fun together!"
The manager was stunned for a moment, then looked at Zhou Yunshu and nodded.
Since he wants to have fun together, let's have fun together, as long as he doesn't regret it.
After the manager left, Zhou Yunshu asked Jing Gao to bring the child over.
She looked at her child, who was looking at her with red eyes and fear, and said with a smile, "How about I play a game with you?"
"If you want to play, nod your head. If you don't, shake your head."
The child nodded without hesitation.
Zhou Yunshu raised the corner of her mouth and asked Jing Gao to pull the cloth out of the child's mouth.
The child looked at Zhou Yunshu with red eyes: "What do you want to play?"
"I'll ask you a question and you'll answer it. If you answer it wrong, I'll throw you into the river. How about that?"
Before Zhou Yunshu finished her words, the child was frightened and started crying.
"Wuwuwu, sister, sister, help me, sister!"
The child struggled and yelled for help, "Sister."
Just when Zhou Yunshu wanted to tell him to stop shouting, saying that no one would come to save him even if he screamed at the top of his lungs, the pregnant woman that Wu Gui had seen before appeared in front of them.
"Arong!"
The woman ran out from the corridor next to Mingyue Tower, holding her belly, followed by a tall and handsome man with an anxious look on his face.
"Little fish!"
Why doesn't she listen?
The man held the pregnant woman's arm and looked at Zhou Yunshu and the others sitting on the lawn with a wary look on his face.
When Zhou Yunshu and Wu Gui saw the man, they couldn't help but widen their eyes.
"Husband."
