"Princess, they've arrived."
Si Jinxing said, "Come in!"
Soon, the door curtain was lifted, and a woman dressed as a maid walked in.
Si Jinxing looked at the visitor and said, "Miss Lianxiang, it seems that it is very difficult to invite her?"
Yes, the person who came was Lianxiang, the maid beside Si Jinyun.
Lianxiang heard this and said with a somewhat unhappy expression:
"Second Miss, I have done so many things for you, I should have understood that matter long ago!
What's more, now that the eldest son is gone, please don't use the past to threaten me anymore!"
When Qing Chan heard this, his face darkened slightly and he said:
"Miss, please be careful with your words!"
Si Jinxing pursed her lips and smiled, saying:
"Miss Lianxiang is indeed a smart person.
Si Jinhao is gone, so I naturally don't need to mention the old things between you and him anymore.
But if Si Jinyun knew that you betrayed her, secretly poisoned her, and ruined her appearance, how would she treat you?
And it was you who poisoned Zhou. How can you argue?
Besides, I didn’t call you here today to ask you to do anything evil!
I'm just asking you a few questions, why are you so nervous? "
When Lianxiang heard this, she was so frightened that she stood there in shock!
She had originally thought that since the eldest master was dead now, there would be no evidence to prove the affair between her and him!
What's more, the second young lady once said that if the time was right, she would help her become the eldest young master's concubine.
But now that everyone is gone, why should we still help this second young lady?
However, hearing what the second young lady said was like a blow to the head!
How could she forget that when she was helping the Second Young Lady, she could no longer get off the Second Young Lady's boat!
She knelt on the ground with a thud, kowtowed, and said:
"Second Miss, I was confused for a moment!
If you have anything to say, just tell me!"
Seeing this, Si Jinxing didn't beat around the bush and asked directly:
"Your Third Miss, have you contacted anyone recently?"
When Lianxiang heard this, her face suddenly turned pale.
She hesitated and said:
"The Third Miss hasn't left the house recently, but..."
Qing Chan frowned and asked, "Just what?"
Lianxiang raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Si Jinxing, then continued:
"A few days ago, the Third Miss met a man in the house on Xuanqing Street!
The man only said he was a relative of the third young lady."
Si Jinyun’s relative?
Si Jinxing frowned slightly and thought about it for a while, but still couldn't figure it out.
She looked at Lianxiang and asked:
"Did you see the man's face? Do you know his name?"
Lianxiang shook her head slightly and said:
"No. That person seemed to not want to be seen and even covered his face with a black cloth!"
Si Jinxing raised his hand, asked Lianxiang to stand up, and said:
"If she behaves in any way, or wants to see anyone, you should be alert. Go."
After watching Lianxiang leave the yard, Qingchan returned to the room and said:
"Princess, I'm afraid Lianxiang isn't telling the truth."
Si Jinxing nodded and said:
“She’s leaving herself a way out!
It doesn’t matter, she is not useless. Now she just needs to find out who that man is.
Go tell Mo Qiu that Biluoyuan is keeping a close eye on them!
Now that Si Junshan is under her control, I think it’s time to contact that person and take the next step! "
Upon hearing this, Qingchan immediately turned around and left the room to pass on the message.
In a blink of an eye, it was the eighth day of the first lunar month.
Si Jinxing had just finished breakfast when she heard Bai Shao say:
"Miss, Aunt Wen from next door is here with the fourth young lady."
Si Jinxing nodded and asked her to bring the person in.
Soon, the door curtain was lifted and Wen's mother and daughter came in.
Si Jinxing stood up and said with a smile:
"I'm just taking my fourth sister to attend Miss He's birthday party, but Auntie is still worried and wants to send her off personally?"
Wen smiled slightly and said, "Second Miss, you are joking again. I am not worried about her at all!"
As she spoke, she was about to salute Si Jinxing!
Seeing this, Si Jinxing quickly reached out to support the person and said, "Auntie, what are you doing?"
Wen gently pushed Si Jinxing's hand away, bowed properly, and then said:
"I came here today just to thank the Second Young Lady in person."
After receiving the gift, Si Jinxing quickly helped the man up and placed him on a chair beside him.
Wen continued:
"Years ago, the Second Miss saved Heng'er's life from the kidnappers, and I haven't had the chance to thank you yet.
You gave us three mothers New Year gifts and banknotes, and took Yier to various banquets.
Next year Yi'er will be of marriageable age. It will be a great opportunity for the Second Young Lady to take her out, which will broaden her horizons.
Heng'er and Yi'er, it is such a blessing for them to have a sister like the Second Young Lady!
I, your humble servant, am deeply grateful, but I have nothing else to offer, so I have no choice but to come and thank you in person."
After hearing what Wen said, Si Jinxing also sighed:
“What Auntie said is outrageous.
When I was young, after my mother passed away, you took good care of Xing'er!
I was bullied and humiliated in the mansion, and even the servants looked down on me.
But my brother Heng and sister Yi have never mocked me like others!
It can be seen that Aunt Wen’s teaching was good.
Now that I have grown up, it is my duty to take care of my younger brothers and sisters!
Why is Auntie so polite?"
Si Jinyi, who was standing by, heard this and stepped forward, holding Si Jinxing's arm, and said sweetly:
"Thank you, second sister. Yi'er really likes those earrings!"
