Chen Ahfu and the others were all shocked. If something happened to that girl, the Fu family would be in big trouble. Moreover, today was the day when Third Master Fu was getting married, which was too unlucky.
Thinking of her daughter also rowing by the lake, Qin quickly asked the maid to go to the lake to check and bring Lan Jie'er back.
Mrs. Liu asked again, "Has he been rescued?"
The little girl said, "I heard that he was rescued and sent to Madam Fu's courtyard. A doctor has been called."
That's good.
Madam Qin asked, "Whose girl is this? How could she fall into the lake when she was fine?"
The little girl said, "I heard it was the girl from the Chen family." She added, "What a coincidence, there were several young men nearby where the girl fell. I wonder which one of them jumped into the water and rescued her."
"Which Chen family? Which girl?" Chen Ahfu asked anxiously. Thinking that Chen Yuhui was also here, why did this look so much like some of the plots?
The girl said, "I don't know which Chen family it is."
Chen Afu was worried, so he asked Xiao Mo and a maid in the yard to find out more details.
Not long after, Qin Lan came back. She seemed frightened, her face pale. The girl who went with her was older and told her what happened.
They were boating in the lake and happened to be quite close to where the accident happened.
There is a small arch bridge on the lake, which is semicircular in shape. There are many lotus leaves beside the bridge. The girl bent down to pick lotus leaves at a low point on the bridge, and suddenly fell into the water. There happened to be a few young men not far from the shore, and one of them jumped into the water and rescued the girl...
Lan Jie'er also said, "When I was sitting on the boat, I saw those uncles, and it seemed that Uncle Chu was also in it. But after the girl fell off, the woman rowing the boat didn't dare to approach, and I don't know which uncle jumped into the water to save her."
Chen Ahfu's heart skipped a beat again. With Chu Lingxuan there, the girl who fell into the water could really be Chen Yuhui. She had always wanted to be Chu Lingxuan's concubine, and she had always felt that Chu Lingxuan was interested in her and would definitely save her.
Chen Afu cursed inwardly, the girl had nice dreams, but she didn't know that Chu Lingxuan was a sinister person. How could he be so stupid as to run to save the girl.
However, if it is really Chen Yuhui, the reputation of the Chen family girl will be even worse.
About quarter of an hour later, Xiao Mo came back.
She whispered, "Grandma, it is true that the second girl fell into the water, but she is not seriously injured. The lady-in-law has returned home with the girls."
"Who saved her?" Chen Afu asked.
Xiao Mo said, "I heard that it was General He, the second son of Deputy General He, who saved him."
"He Er?" Madam Qin and Madam Liu both screamed in surprise, then looked at each other, shook their heads, curled their lips, and looked disdainful.
They don’t know that Chen Afu and Chen Yuhui have a bad relationship, and they may still be worried about Chen Yuhui.
It is true that people are "doing things" and God is watching. Let her do it, and she will continue to do it after she marries He Er.
Chen Afu said to Qin and Liu Qin, "My second sister has always been a little naughty, but the third and fourth sisters are very sensible and know what to do and what not to do. Especially the third sister, who is gentle, virtuous and has a likable personality. It's a pity..." She was implicated by that dead girl again.
She didn't continue, but Madam Qin and Madam Liu also understood. They both said, "Don't worry, Madam Chu. Time will tell. People will know what Miss Chen San is like after a while."
When Chen Ahfu went to the toilet, Xiao Mo whispered to her, "Grandma, I don't know why, but at first the rumor was that the third daughter of the Chen family fell into the water. Later, they said it was a mistake, and the girl who fell into the water was the second daughter of the Chen family. I heard that... Madam He was very happy at first, saying that the He family would definitely take responsibility. Later, when she found out it was the second daughter, she became unhappy."
Chen Ahfu was a little surprised, not knowing what was going on. However, regardless of whether Mrs. He was embarrassed or not, the He family had to take responsibility.
After Chu Hanyan and Fu Lingshan woke up, they didn't go out but just played here.
At 3 p.m., music and firecrackers were heard in the distance, and the bride was carried in. Chen Ahfu did not go to the bridal chamber to see the bride, fearing that she would be bumped by the crowd. Madam Qin and Madam Liu accompanied her but did not go. But Miss Chu followed the two young ladies and was led by the maid to watch the fun.
Chen Afu and her friends went to the flower hall only when they had the wedding banquet in the evening.
Mrs. Fu and Grandma Fu didn't look very happy, and Old Madam Fu didn't come out.
Chen Ahfu was embarrassed. No matter how much she and Chen Yuhui didn't get along, they were still one when they went out. They were both girls from the Chen family. The girl from the Chen family disrupted someone else's wedding banquet and seemed to have angered the old lady. It was really outrageous.
She went over to Madam Fu and bowed, whispering, "I'm sorry, my sister made you... worry."
Madam Fu smiled bitterly and said, "Nothing. Go back and apologize to your parents on behalf of me and my master. It was our failure to supervise you that caused your sister to get into trouble."
Mrs. He was so angry that her face was twisted into water, and she didn't even want to put on a forced smile. She was furious. She had originally wanted to take the daughter of the Chen family, but was disturbed by a concubine's daughter. She didn't know when this second son became so chivalrous and brave, and even knew how to be a hero to save the beauty.
When she saw Chen Afu coming, she glared at her, as if she wanted to kill her with her eyes.
Chen Afu was helpless. Chen Yuhui was seeking death, but it had nothing to do with him.
On the way home, Chu Lingxuan had drunk a lot of wine, so he did not ride a horse, but got on Chen Afu's carriage.
He said, "Chen Yuhui fell into the water on purpose, thinking that I would save her. How dare she think..."
In the afternoon, he was dragged by several other young officers to the lakeside to enjoy the scenery and cool off. On the other side of the lake were the women, and on this side were the men. There were green weeping willows on both sides, and the river breeze made it very cool.
At this time, a lone girl came to the bridge on the opposite bank, climbed up a few steps of the bridge, looked down at the lotus leaves in the water for a while, then bent down to pick some lotus leaves.
Chu Hanxuan had already recognized that it was Chen Yuhui, and felt ashamed for having such a sister-in-law.
Although the other men were laughing and guessing who the girl was, they were too embarrassed to keep looking at her. When they were about to leave, they heard a "splash" and the girl fell into the water.
The men were all dumbfounded and ran over quickly, shouting "old woman" loudly while hesitating whether they should be a hero and save the beauty.
Chu Lingxuan said anxiously, "Oh, this girl is my third aunt from Yue family." As he said that, he pretended to jump into the lake to save her.
But before he could jump, He Er and He Linsheng jumped into the water with a splash.
He Linsheng had only seen Chen Yuqing once, and Chen Yuhui was quite far away from them, so he didn't look at her carefully, but he thought she looked familiar. When Chu Lingxuan said that, he thought it was Chen Yuqing who fell into the water.
