Chapter 147: Eye-catching
Wen Juexia couldn't wait for Xie Yingmian to guess,
Even her deliberately lowered voice could not conceal her excitement: "I saw Hongyao."
"I don't know how Hongyao got into the male family's place, and I don't know what means she used to lure Lord Xie into the courtyard near the male family."
"When I flew over that yard, I saw them hurriedly taking off their clothes."
"It's winter, but they're not afraid of the cold and take off their clothes outside."
"I saw two white bodies hugging each other. It was as shocking as it could be."
"Haha, they're both having an absurd day next door. If the old witch knew about this, she'd definitely be furious."
Xie Yingmian didn't have any special reaction.
If Hongyao took her medicine powder and couldn't do anything else, she would be a waste.
"Sister Mianmian, you don't seem surprised at all."
Xie Yingmian smiled and said, "Do you remember the pink medicine bottle I mentioned to you yesterday?"
Wen Juexia immediately grasped the key point: "Hongyao stole it?"
Xie Yingmian: "I said that on purpose for her to hear."
"She had that in mind, and my medicine was exactly what she wanted."
Wen Juexia gave a thumbs up.
It turns out that everything is under Sister Mianmian's control.
"I was wondering why Hongyao was acting so strangely every day. It turns out she had this in mind."
"Sister Mianmian, should we add fuel to the fire?"
Xie Yingmian: "No need."
"Xia Xia, you have to remember that this matter has nothing to do with us. It was Hong Yao who acted on her own initiative."
"As for Madam Xie, she will know the news soon, so there is no need for us to add unnecessary details."
Wen Juexia has a mindless admiration for Xie Yingmian.
She believed whatever Xie Yingmian said.
"Let's get down to business. Is Xie Baozhang present?" Xie Yingmian asked.
Wen Juexia: “No.”
"The men are all from the Xie family, accompanying the guests."
Xie Yingmian felt a little depressed.
Xie Baoyu and Xie Baozhang, brother and sister, did not attend the birthday party at the same time. I wonder what bad intentions they are planning.
Just as Xie Yingmian was thinking.
The maid who served the dishes accidentally sprained her foot.
All the food on the plate spilled onto Xie Yingmian.
The maid knelt down hurriedly: "I'm sorry."
"sorry."
"I accidentally sprained my ankle."
"You weren't burned?"
"Your clothes are all dirty and can't be wiped off. Please follow me to the west wing and I will change your clothes for you."
Xie Yingmian narrowed his eyes.
The maids would train for a long time to avoid mistakes at the banquet and would not make such low-level errors.
If you sprain your ankle on flat ground, it is most likely intentional.
Wen Juexia's eyes sparkled: "Sister Mianmian, I know!"
"The storybook says that the maid deliberately spilled the food on you, and then took you somewhere to change clothes."
"The changing area might have been lit with some kind of incense, hiding some wild men. As soon as you go in, you'll be caught. Then the old witch will lead everyone to catch you in the act and ruin your reputation."
Xie Yingmian: ...
It’s better to read less storybooks when you have nothing to do.
If her reputation is ruined, all the unmarried women in the Xie family will be affected.
Xie Baoyu and Xie Baozhu haven't married yet.
Unless they were kicked in the head by a donkey, they would not do that.
If a glass of wine or water is spilled on you, you can still bear it.
A large area was soaked with soup and dishes, and it had to be changed.
Fortunately, I brought spare clothes.
"We need to change our clothes, but not in the west wing," Xie Yingmian said. "Let's go change in the carriage."
The maid was stunned for a moment: "The carriage is cramped, the weather is cold, and your body is delicate..."
Xie Yingmian sneered: "What you said is disgusting."
"Before I got married, my living conditions at the Xie Mansion were even worse than the carriages at Prince Ling's Mansion."
"You didn't say I was delicate back then, so how come I've only been married to Prince Ling's mansion for half a month and my body has become delicate already?"
The maid's eyes were deep.
This Xie Yingmian doesn't play by the rules at all.
It would not work to get her to the west wing by just changing her clothes.
"What if there are relics of your biological mother in the west wing?" the maid said, "If you don't take them..."
"Oh, then you can destroy it." Xie Yingmian said.
Maid: ...
The maid couldn't hold it any longer.
Why is Xie Yingmian's brain circuit different from that of normal people!
It would be fine if you didn't fall into the trap.
Can you even give up your biological mother’s belongings at will?
"Are you sure?" the maid asked, "Are you sure you want me to destroy it?"
Xie Yingmian: "So much nonsense."
"Xia Xia, let's go."
The maid's eyes darkened as she saw that her plan was about to fail.
Xie Yingmian is really too difficult to deal with.
If you don't show some sincerity, the plan will definitely fail.
The maid lowered her voice: "What if your mother's relic is the Stone of Immortality?"
"Are you sure you want me to destroy the Immortality Stone?"
Xie Yingmian stopped.
Yu Lingye told her that the name of the Longevity Stone was given by Pei Xun.
Only a very few people know this name.
How could a little maidservant in the Xie Mansion know the name of the Stone of Longevity?
How could my mother's relic be the stone of immortality?
What roles did Xie Baozhang and Xie Baoyu play in this?
"Did Xie Baozhang ask you to say that?" Xie Yingmian asked.
The maid said, "No."
"That idiot Xie Baozhang only asked me to take you to the west wing. They were very sure that you would go there and change your clothes."
"I advised them to prepare a backup plan just in case."
"It was me who suggested that Xie Baozhang use your mother's belongings as bait."
"I didn't lie to you. Your mother's relic is the Stone of Immortality. It's in the west wing."
Xie Yingmian did not respond.
This maidservant initially called herself a "slave".
Now, I refer to myself as "I".
This maid wanted her to go to the west wing more than Xie Baozhang and Xie Baoyu.
This is interesting.
"How do you know that my mother's relic is the Stone of Immortality?" Xie Yingmian asked.
The maid did not give a direct answer.
She said, "You'll know the answer when you get to the west wing."
Xie Yingmian stared at the maid for a while.
The maid's micro-expression didn't change at all, and it looked like she wasn't lying.
There was a trap in the west wing prepared by Xie Baozhang and Xie Baoyu.
However, the trap may contain the immortality stone she has always dreamed of.
Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk.
She was never afraid of traps, she just simply hated trouble.
"Go to the west wing." Xie Yingmian said.
Upon hearing the answer, the maid breathed a visibly relieved sigh.
"Sister Mianmian!" Wen Juexia said, "You can't trust her."
"There's an ambush in the west wing. The Immortality Stone and the like must be a lie. We can't let ourselves fall into the trap."
Xie Yingmian leaned close to Wen Juexia's ear and said a few words.
Wen Juexia was skeptical: "Will he help?"
"Yes." Xie Yingmian said.
Yu Lingye invited him here to help her maintain order.
"Then wait for me, I'll be back soon." Wen Juexia left quickly.
The maid wanted to urge Xie Yingmian.
Xie Yingmian stood there, motionless.
The maid was more or less aware of Xie Yingmian's rebellious nature, and finally kept her mouth shut.
Wen Juexia came back soon.
"Lord Shen is not here. I only found Xiao Kui. Xiao Kui said he would inform Lord Shen as soon as possible."
Xie Yingmian frowned slightly: "Chen Tingsi and Xiaokui are not together?"
