Chapter 884: The Prince of the Duke's Mansion vs. the Black Lotus Concubine 26
Ji Yunhuan accepted the bow and arrow, thinking of returning a gift to Ma Feihong later. She now had considerable assets and was not short of money.
With the immortal's personal guidance and occasional personal demonstrations, Ji Yunhuan also hunted many things, including pheasants, rabbits, wild ducks, and also picked some wild vegetables and mushrooms, which were very fresh.
She had always been following Ma Feihong and the others, never being alone. Ma Feihong also had guards with her, so she was very safe.
During this time, a wild boar rushed over, but was hunted by the guards. Ma Feihong excitedly shot a few arrows at it, then tied up the prey and took it away happily.
Xu wanted to create some accidents. If she couldn't kill Ji Yunhuan, she would at least break her legs and disfigure her to vent Shi Ting's anger. Unfortunately, she never found the opportunity.
She also didn't want to provoke the Ma family, so she could only wait for Ji Yunhuan to come back on horseback before making any plans.
Without Ji Shiting, the troublemaker, the group of girls had a great time, hunting and fishing, and had a good harvest.
Everyone returned to the stable. Ma Feihong rode her own horse, which was naturally taken care of by a groom she brought with her. The others rode horses from the manor, and there were also grooms to take care of them.
"Please come in, my dear guests. The dressing room is ready. Everything is ready. Please follow me."
Everyone was sweating, so naturally they had to change clothes and wash up. The Xu family was wealthy, and the locker room was beautifully and exquisitely built. The place was large enough to accommodate so many people.
Ji Yunhuan was led to the most remote dressing room. A maid stood at the door, holding clothes and jewelry. She said with a smile, "I will help you change clothes. The Xu family has prepared clothes for guests riding horses. It doesn't matter if you don't bring any clothes."
Ji Yunhuan didn't believe that Xu would be so kind. Even if it was something that everyone had a share of, Xu would still deduct it from her and would rather make her look bad.
She would never wear the clothes prepared by Xu. Who knows what dirty things are hidden inside!
Mi Xue came over carrying a bundle, pushed aside the maid, and helped the young lady to the dressing room next door.
"This one looks better to me. I brought some underwear for the young lady. It's enough for me to serve her. I won't bother you, sister."
Mi Xue slammed the door shut, locking the Xu family's maid outside and not letting her in.
Ji Yunhuan quickly changed her clothes, and Mi Xue quickly helped the young lady comb her messy hair, muttering softly, "I saw the young lady go riding, so I went back to the carriage to get her clothes. I always felt that someone was staring at me furtively, but I always went to crowded places, so nothing happened."
"Just wait until Master Shen comes back from hunting. As long as Miss stays where Master Shen can see her, Madam won't dare to do anything."
After dressing up, Ji Yunhuan didn't dare to drink the tea in the locker room. Mi Xue brought a water bag, and the water in the bag was enough for her.
There was a knock on the door outside, bang bang bang very loudly, "Miss? Miss, are you in there? Didn't you say you were going to change to this locker room? Why is there no movement?"
"How on earth do you serve me, you sneaky bastard? If anything happens to the young lady, I will beat you to death!"
The maid was a member of the manor, so she was not very afraid of the steward of the Ji family. She said confidently, "The young lady has someone to serve her, and if she doesn't let me serve her, what can I do? I have been guarding outside. Can the young lady grow wings and fly away?"
"Girls are slow at changing clothes. Why are you in such a hurry? Just wait a little longer!"
The steward's eyes rolled around. Ji Yunhuan had changed rooms and didn't use the clothes he had prepared. Nothing happened to her. This was not acceptable.
I originally wanted to accomplish things in the locker room, but now I have to find another way.
The steward said loudly: "Miss, Master Shen ordered me to invite you over. Are you okay? If you don't come out, I will have to go in and take a look."
The door opened from the inside, and Mi Xue's face was full of anger. "What do you want to do? The young lady is changing her clothes, why are you making such a fuss? Do you think you can barge into the place where the young lady is dressing? You have no manners!"
The steward was disdainful in his heart. He thought that an unfavored young lady was not as prestigious as the capable nanny beside the lady. As long as he completed this task well, the lady would definitely use him in the future, and he would be able to get a lucrative job that was respectable and could earn more money.
The steward said with a smile: "I am also worried about the young lady. I am anxious for the moment. Please don't be angry with me. Mr. Shen is thinking about the young lady and asked her to come over. He said he has something to give to her in person. Please follow me."
Mi Xue was very alert, and she put the young lady behind her, frowning and saying, "I have already checked, the young masters have not returned from hunting yet, how come Master Chen came back first? And Master Chen has servants to serve him, so why does he need you to pass on the message?"
"Stay away from our lady, or I'll call for help!"
The steward made up a lie on the spur of the moment, which was not clear at all, and he stammered: "Perhaps Master Shen missed the eldest lady, so he came back early, and happened to run into me, so he asked me to come and pass on a message."
Mi Xue said angrily: "Nonsense! You just have bad intentions!"
The steward's face turned cold. "I came here with good intentions to pass on the message. You little hoof are so arrogant. When will it be your turn to make decisions for the master? Master Shen looks very anxious. You stopped the young lady from going. If you delay Master Shen's business, can you bear the responsibility?"
"Drag this little bitch away! She has corrupted the good girl!"
Two servants suddenly appeared from nowhere and tried to take Mi Xue away.
Ji Yunhuan held Mixue tightly and said coldly, "I didn't say I won't go, and there's no rush. When the others have finished dressing up, I'll go with them. It won't be too late to see Master Shen again."
"I promised Miss Ma that I would share the prey with her. She will come to find me. You two should go out first. I still need to put on some rouge. You are blocking my light."
The steward waved his hand and asked the two servants to leave, as if he had given up the idea of taking Ji Yunhuan away.
He bowed to Ji Yunhuan and said respectfully, "It is my fault for being rude. I apologize to the young lady. Please take your time to dress up. I will wait outside."
Mi Xue breathed a sigh of relief and slowly applied rouge to the young lady. As long as she followed the other girls later, she would be much safer.
The steward suddenly rushed over, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, and covered Mi Xue's mouth and nose.
Mi Xue was caught off guard and inhaled a mouthful of the drug. She wanted to shout but had no strength. She could only squeeze out a few words with difficulty, "Miss... run... run!"
Ji Yunhuan's reaction was very quick. She hit the manager in the stomach with an elbow. The manager bent over in pain, and Mi Xue fell to the ground.
Ji Yunhuan wanted to go over to check on Mixue's condition. Several silver needles shot out from the darkness, one of which pierced into her right arm, and a numbing and itchy feeling spread.
[What the hell is this? Is the Xu family crazy? How dare they kill people so brazenly! Ji Yunhuan, hold on, I'll get you out!]
