Chapter 150: Take Refuge
When the painting unfolds, two turtles come into view.
The turtles drawn by Jiang Yuzhu are very sloppily. The male turtle has a big red flower tied on its back and is lying on the back of the female turtle in a standing or lying position. The two turtles are very close.
Feng Shuang's face turned red visibly, and she asked, "Jiang Yuzhu, what is your intention in sending the erotic picture?"
Jiang Yuzhu suddenly realized and curved her lips and said, "Ms. Feng, you must have misunderstood. As far as I know, you are not married yet, so how could you have seen a pornographic palace?"
"Jiang Yuzhu, you...I will not let you go!"
Feng Shuang blurted out the words without thinking, and regretted it after she realized what was happening.
However, the words had already been spoken. Faced with the slightly surprised and expectant looks of the ladies around her, Feng Shuang could no longer bear it no matter how thick-skinned she was, and she stomped her feet and left in frustration.
Jiang Yuzhu didn't insist on this, and said evasively: "The turtle symbolizes good luck and has a long life. Feng Zhuangyuan married Miss Wei. It's a good marriage, and it must last a long time!"
As for the postures of male and female turtles, the Feng family can understand them on their own.
Madam Feng's face was livid, she suppressed her anger and endured it. The maid was obviously not capable of this, she said in a panic, "Nonsense, Miss Wei was abducted by barbarians, everyone in the capital knows about it, Madam Xie sent the turtle to imply that my son is a cuckold, you didn't receive the wedding invitation and suddenly came to my house, aren't you here to pick a fight?"
Jiang Yuzhu smiled contemptuously and complained for herself: "The master didn't say anything, why are you, a servant, butting in? This lady has learned the rules of the Feng family. You really let down my good intentions!"
It’s true, the servants understand it more deeply.
Mrs. Feng gritted her teeth. After careful investigation, she found that her daughter Feng Shuang was the first to fall into the trap and be rude. If she held on to it, she would be just what Jiang Yuzhu wanted.
The other party was pretending to be congratulating her, and although Mrs. Feng was angry, she had no choice but to endure it.
Madam Feng was just about to smooth things over and find a way out when Shuxiang, Wei Jing's maid, hurriedly walked down the path and said, "My young lady wants to talk to Madam Xie alone."
Wei Jing and Jiang Yuzhu are sworn enemies in Beijing, and they are fighting each other to the death.
Wei Jing was angry when she found out that her wedding day was ruined by Jiang Yuzhu?
"Thank you, Madam. Please."
Mrs. Feng thought about it and decided that it would be better to send the God of Plague to Wei Jing, otherwise it would be difficult for her as an elder to argue with the younger one.
Shuxiang's eyes were full of panic, and it was obvious that she was lying. Jiang Yuzhu thought that Wei Jing was afraid of being exposed and had designed a series of schemes, so she did not expose Shuxiang and followed behind leisurely.
In the wedding courtyard stood a dozen maids and old women, none of them looking happy at all.
Before Jiang Yuzhu entered the door, she heard a whistle and learned that Hong Jin had found Chen Zhilan, and she felt relieved.
Shuxiang brought Jiang Yuzhu to the outer room of the wedding chamber and slowly closed the door. She fell to her knees and begged, "Madam Xie, please save me and Mo Yun!"
Jiang Yuzhu lifted her skirt and sat on the chair, raising her eyebrows and asked, "What tricks is Wei Jing going to play next?"
The most important thing right now is to put the bride back in her place. Jiang Yuzhu doesn't have time to talk about trivial things.
A figure flashed in the room, and Hong Jin carried Shen Zhilan to the outer room: "Madam, Miss cousin is here."
The wedding courtyard of the Feng Mansion was designed in the most remote place. Hong Jin was dazzled when she entered the back house, and she followed Mo Yun's figure to find Shen Zhilan.
Hong Jin noticed that Mo Yun seemed to be intentionally leading the way.
"Madam Xie, Miss Shen has been knocked unconscious. According to the dosage, she will wake up at the earliest around dusk."
To show his sincerity, Shuxiang pushed a box with wheels and said, "The courtyard is surrounded by spies from both the Feng and Wei families. It would be safest to put Miss Shen in the box and take her out!"
Hong Jin looked at his wife, and Jiang Yuzhu nodded slowly.
You Moyun pushed the box and arrived at the corner gate of Feng Mansion easily without being questioned.
The carriage used by the Mo family to exchange people stopped, and Wei Jing was stuffed into the box and quietly moved back to the Feng family's bridal chamber.
The whole process went smoothly and took less than a quarter of an hour, with great effort from Wei Jing's two maids.
Jiang Yuzhu stood up and made a gesture to leave: "This lady has always been clear about rewards and punishments. What do you want?"
Jiang Yuzhu was too lazy to find out whether Wei Jing's trusted maid betrayed her sincerely or not.
Shuxiang has calmed down: "Thank you Madam, it's not that Mo Yun and I betrayed our master, but..."
Shuxiang felt bitter because her young lady had changed.
In the past, although Wei Jing was also extremely cunning and often punished her servants, she rarely took anyone's life.
This exchange with Shen Zhilan was planned in advance by Wei Jing, who did not hesitate to spend a large sum of money to bribe the matchmaker and the music team invited by the Mo family.
"Young lady is extremely suspicious and worried that the news might leak out, so she locked up the servant and Mo Yun who knew about it in the Wei family ancestral hall for a few days."
Regardless of whether Wei Jing succeeds or not, her temperament is unpredictable and the servants around her are already walking on thin ice.
"Young lady has gone astray, there is no possibility of changing for the better. This servant and Mo Yun do not want to do bad things again."
Originally, although Shuxiang and Moyun had the idea of betraying their master, they never dared to put it into action.
"I was sold to the Wei family when I was five years old. Mo Yun is different from me. She is a family-born child."
Shuxiang sighed. She and Mo Yun grew up together. Other maids would bully each other just to win favor, but these two were closer than sisters.
Mo Yun knelt on the ground, her face numb: "A few days ago, my father was beaten to death for making a mistake. The young lady locked me up in the ancestral hall for selfish reasons. I didn't even see my father for the last time..."
This incident became the last straw that broke the camel's back for Mo Yun.
Wei Jing failed to succeed today, so she had to vent her anger on the servants around her.
Even if there is no blood in the wedding night, it will not last more than a few days.
Jiang Yuzhu glanced at the two of them and said in a low voice, "This lady is not a philanthropist. Even if I am repaying a favor, saving you two seems to be too big a favor."
Even without Shuxiang Moyun's help, Jiang Yuzhu still has a solution, it's just a little more troublesome.
She doesn't want Wei Jing's people.
Mo Yun entered the inner room to look after Wei Jing, while Shu Xiang knelt forward and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Madam. I know myself well and know that I am not that important. So please save Mo Yun. In exchange, I am willing to stay."
After saying this, Shuxiang kowtowed respectfully.
For Shuxiang, who is alone and without any relatives, the most important thing to him is Moyun, with whom he grew up.
She wanted to use her own value to seek peace for Mo Yun!
"I know your principles, but I have one more thing to ask."
Time is running out.
Once Wei Jing wakes up, she will definitely find someone to vent her anger on.
By sending Mo Yun away, Shuxiang can temporarily push the blame onto Mo Yun and stay to do errands for Jiang Yuzhu.
As long as the fragrance of books still has value, the charm of ink will not be discarded.
"A man in black once came to see the young lady and asked her to join him. The first step was to marry Feng Qing."
That night, Shuxiang was in the next room and overheard it by chance.
This is a secret that even Mo Yun doesn't know.
Shuxiang is willing to do anything as long as she can save her sisters.
After weighing the pros and cons, Jiang Yuzhu readily agreed: "Okay."
What attracted her was not the sisterhood of Shu Xiang Mo Yun, but the arrogant man in black.
"Leave Mo Yun to me, and I will arrange a meeting between you two later."
As Jiang Yuzhu was speaking, frivolous laughter was heard from the entrance of the wedding courtyard.
Feng Qing was holding a wine pot in his hand, walking unsteadily, and said to the maids and servants in the courtyard, "All of you get out!"
