What kind of lady is she, Chapter 449?
Compared to everyone's apprehension towards Dongzang, the leading guard looked at Jiang Nuanzhi before leaving.
The woman stood there, holding the child, looking like a victim, but he just felt that she was more terrifying.
While others might not know, he could see clearly that the princess was ultimately asking for her opinion, and that woman with terrifying internal strength was also seemingly following her orders.
And her children, so young, one can act to deceive them, while the other can already use medicine and poison. I wonder who taught them this. Thinking about it carefully, it is extremely terrifying.
Is this kind of house really something that a rural farmhouse could build?
He had never seen such an exquisite house before. Now that he had seen it, even the imperial estate where the Empress Dowager lived didn't seem so special anymore.
In a daze, he met that person's eyes again, and felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
The guard leader pursed his lips: "Something's not right here. We're setting off today. Hurry up and take everyone back to the imperial estate."
"But boss, we have cartilage powder in our bodies."
"Clearly, the child didn't intend to kill. Although the drug is potent, I've regained some strength, and the effects should wear off automatically in about two hours. I need to hurry back and rest before continuing my journey."
Jiang Nuanzhi watched the group leave, a few inexplicable emotions flashing in her eyes.
Lin Chun frowned: "Madam, are we just going to let these people go like this? That's too lenient on them."
Jiang Nuanzhi: "It's a bit too easy on her, but now is not the time to do anything to her. Let her do whatever she wants."
Jiang Nuanzhi's eyes flickered. "Zhao Yuniang, you must hold on for a few more days."
Jiang Nuanzhi knew Baozhu's true identity perfectly well. There was no mention of Zhao Niuniu in the book. Now, Zhao Niuniu had become this princess who had been separated from her family?
Jiang Nuanzhi was eager for someone to step in; she didn't want her daughter to go into that complicated world of fame and fortune at such a young age. And who knew if it would be a blessing or a curse? It would be best if someone could scout the way.
She had sensed something was wrong with Zhao Yuniang earlier; for example, Xie Liangchen had warned her beforehand about the heavy snow. Xie Liangchen's information clearly came from Zhao Yuniang. And it wasn't the first time Zhao Yuniang had muttered things like "I'm a damned person."
Jiang Nuanzhi felt that Zhao Yuniang was strange, but she didn't know where she came from and needed to observe her more closely. It wouldn't affect anything, though.
"Is Baozhu scared?" Jiang Nuanzhi patted Baozhu's little head.
Baozhu shook her head: "Mother is back, Baozhu is not afraid."
Baozhu blinked her big eyes twice, then looked at Dongzang curiously.
"Mother, who is that?"
“This is your winter-hidden aunt, and this is your spring-emerging aunt.”
Dongzang and Linchun also stepped forward to pay their respects.
"Greetings, young lady." Both of them were servants of the Li family, and they bowed respectfully upon arrival without any hesitation.
"Auntie who hibernates in winter, Auntie who approaches spring."
Baozhu was startled for a moment, but then, under Jiang Nuanzhi's encouraging gaze, she obediently clasped her little fists and bowed.
Jiang Nuanzhi then patted the waiter: "This is my second son, Li Jun'an."
"Greetings, Second Young Master."
The two continued to bow.
The waiter was stunned for a moment, then followed their example and knelt down on one knee with a serious expression: "Greetings, two aunts."
"."
Lin Chun's lips twitched. She tried to hold back, but in the end, she couldn't resist picking up Xiao Er.
"Second Young Master, one should not kneel before servants. There is also the custom of bowing, with the right hand clenched in a fist inside and the left hand outside. In our Great Jing, the left is considered superior, and covering the fist with the left hand shows goodwill and respect."
As she spoke, she took his little hand and straightened it.
Upon hearing this, Baozhu immediately corrected herself, clenching her fists perfectly.
Lin Chun glanced at her again and again, clearly trying to hold back, but she couldn't resist and took Xiao Baozhu's hand in her own: "Miss, you don't need to bow, just gently raise your hand to greet me."
Furthermore, when a woman performs a curtsy, she stands with her legs together, right hand placed on top of her left hand at her sides, and slowly curtses. There are many important points to this, which I will explain in detail to you later, young lady. Please forgive me, young lady.”
Then, he straightened the fist that Xiao Baozhu was holding and finally let out a soft breath.
Then, in a daze, she realized something, immediately turned to look at Jiang Nuanzhi, her whole body stiffened, and the next second, she apologized: "Madam, Linchun begs for forgiveness."
Jiang Nuanzhi blinked twice: "What did you do wrong?"
Lin Chun: "Lin Chun should not be so presumptuous."
"Oh, then I'll punish you by making you teach them more in the future."
Jiang Nuanzhi said with a smile.
Lin Chun stood there, stunned for a moment.
Dongzang sighed with some regret, muttering to himself, "How could the lady be so kind? There's really no good show to watch."
"You know to come back!"
The next second, Jiang Nuanzhi, who was still relatively gentle in front of him, suddenly roared.
Not only Dongzang and Linchun, but even the little princess was startled.
"Ah Nuan, you're back?"
The old man shouted excitedly upon hearing the sound, then threw down the heavy basket on his back and ran happily towards Jiang Nuanzhi.
However, upon getting closer and seeing Jiang Nuanzhi's unusual expression, he hesitated for a moment. He then pushed Xin Bo, who was beside him, forward.
"Well, he insisted on going out. I didn't even want to eat fish that much; he just had to! I was planning to stay home and rest, but now I'm dragging my sick body to go and go out with him. Ah Nuan, you have no idea how I've been these past few days. You have to make me some nice food. Sweet and sour fish would be best."
Jiang Nuanzhi glanced at the basket, then squinted at the two of them: "So, you two left the child at home for these fish that are no bigger than a finger?"
The old man cleared his throat, then smiled and said, "Well, nothing happened, right? Look, the children are all looking very happy. Besides, I left them some poison. If any bad guys come, they'll be instantly turned into water. Don't be angry, Nuan Nuan. We just didn't pick you up. Look, I got you so many fish. We'll have a welcome feast for you later."
"Madam, you're back. Did you have a long journey? There's some hot tea at home. Let me offer you a bowl."
Xin Bo stared at Jiang Nuanzhi for a while before suddenly speaking. He then turned around and went to pour hot tea.
Jiang Nuanzhi narrowed her eyes as she looked at the smiling old man on the side.
"Do you know that when I came back today, Zhao Yuniang brought people to my house and tried to take Baozhu away?"
The old man was taken aback, then his face lit up with excitement: "What do you mean? Someone's causing trouble? Waiter, how's it going? You finally have a chance to test the poison, how's it going?"
As he spoke, he looked at the waiter with a smile.
Xiao Er patted the little shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I've used up all the sleeping potion I used before! They all behaved themselves immediately and didn't even touch the hem of your clothes."
"Really? My disciple is amazing! Did you try that bone-corroding powder before?"
The waiter blinked blankly: "No."
The old man frowned: "You silly child, why don't you try them all? These are rare finds, easy targets delivered right to your door."
"Old man!"
The ginger's warm energy caused his teeth to grind.
The old man looked over, puzzled.
The next second, Jiang Nuanzhi said in a hoarse voice, "I'll make a big meal tonight, but you can only eat when you've reflected on your actions."
He then picked up Baozhu, grabbed the waiter's hand, and went straight inside.
The two people behind him, Dongzang and Linchun, were dumbfounded by the old man's appearance.
"The...the Grand Preceptor. Hey, am I seeing things? That's the Grand Preceptor!" Dongzang's eyes widened in disbelief. This was the first time she had spoken to Linchun without a barb since their reunion.
Lin Chun was also stunned at this moment, barely able to maintain his composure, staring straight at the old man.
"Grand Preceptor, what are you doing here?"
So, what kind of wife did the general find for them during their absence?
