Jiang Ancheng was the head of a mansion, so of course he didn't need to report to Madam Feng when he was taking his daughter out. The newly replaced doorman watched the father and daughter leave and continued to guard the door with all his attention.
"Where do you want to go shopping?"
"My daughter wants to go to a cosmetics shop. I heard that a new cosmetics shop is very popular and its perfume lotion is very popular."
"The cosmetics shop..." Jiang Ancheng said with some regret.
It's not appropriate for a grown man like him to visit such a place.
Accompanying Jiang Si to the cosmetics shop with the sign of "Lu Sheng Xiang", Jiang Ancheng stopped and said, "Si'er, go shopping. Your father will wait for you in the teahouse over here."
Jiang Si immediately smiled sweetly: "Then I'll trouble you, father, to wait."
With the release of two new perfume lotions at Lushengxiang, the small cosmetics shop became increasingly lively, with many people already coming to buy rouge and perfume lotions.
Jiang Si brought Aqiao in, and when Lady Xiu saw Aqiao she immediately came over to greet them.
Ah Qiao shook her head slightly.
After a few busy months, Xiu Niangzi gradually came out of the pain of losing her daughter. Or rather, the pain was always in her heart, but this small cosmetics shop carried all of Xiu Niangzi's hopes for the future, allowing her to grit her teeth and move on.
Niang Xiu was widowed at a young age and raised her daughter by selling tofu. She was actually a capable and tough person. Now she has regained her true nature. When she saw Aqiao shaking her head, she reacted quickly and waited for a while after Aqiao accompanied Jiang Si inside before she found an opportunity to pass by.
"Greetings to the girl."
Although Lady Xiu didn't know Jiang Si's true identity yet, she learned from Aqiao that this was the real owner of Lu Sheng Xiang.
She was grateful to Jiang Si from the bottom of her heart.
Looking back now, Madam Xiu has no idea how she managed to survive during that period. If it weren't for this small shop providing her with a place to stay, she would probably have died with her daughter long ago.
Jiang seemed to be able to hear the sincere gratitude from Lady Xiu, so he took off his veil and placed it on the table, then smiled at her gently: "Lady Xiu, there is no need to be so polite."
The moment she saw Jiang Si's eyebrows and eyes clearly, Lady Xiu was stunned and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes almost uncontrollably.
She inexplicably saw her daughter's shadow in the girl in front of her.
Lady Xiu reacted quickly and apologized to Jiang Si: "I lost my temper, please don't blame me."
She must have missed her daughter too much. This girl was much more graceful and elegant than her daughter. How could she feel that the two of them were somewhat similar?
After the initial shock, Lady Xiu calmed down, and after looking at him carefully, she felt that he didn't look like her at all.
Jiang Si had planned long ago to show up in front of Lady Xiu.
Miss Chuchu moved into Songzi Lane, so some things were no longer suitable to be arranged there. The cosmetics shop was actually very suitable for her identity.
It was quite common for a girl to bring her maid to buy rouge and powder, and it would not arouse suspicion at all.
In this case, she needs Xiu Niangzi to know the real boss, so that she can provide cover and convenience.
"Has Ah Fei arrived?" Jiang Si asked.
"We are here. Please follow me, young lady."
Madam Xiu took Jiang Si to the backyard.
Although this cosmetics shop on the street is not big, it has the common layout of a shop in front and a yard in the back. The front is open for business, and the back is just right for living.
Of course, guests are not allowed to enter the backyard at will.
There was a back door in the backyard, and Ah Fei came in through the back door. He was waiting in the house to drink tea. When he saw Jiang Si coming in, he immediately stood up and said impatiently, "Girl, you are finally here!"
Ah Qiao smiled and pulled Lady Xiu: "Lady Xiu, go and get busy in the front. We can't leave them alone."
After Ah Qiao and Xiu Niangzi left, Jiang Si immediately asked, "Is he still there now?"
"My two brothers are watching outside the Tianxiang Tea House, and we haven't seen Master Zhu come down yet."
"How did you find out that he was meeting a woman?" Jiang Si asked.
She didn't believe that Zhu Ziyu, who was so cautious, would openly bring a woman to Tianxiang Teahouse.
Ah Fei immediately said, "I followed Master Zhu into the Tianxiang Teahouse and watched from the private room opposite him. Not long after, a girl came up and entered the private room next to Master Zhu. After a while, Master Zhu walked out of the private room and sneaked into the girl's private room..."
"Did you see it clearly?" Jiang Si asked, pursing her lips.
Ah Fei patted his chest and said, "I saw it clearly."
"I mean, judging from her age and her attire, are you sure she's a girl?"
"She's about your age, with a girl's hair in a bun, and she looks quite elegant..."
Jiang Si shook his hand tightly, unable to hide his excitement.
Qing'er in Zhu's house and Yu'er in the civilian house were both quiet, but unexpectedly Zhu Ziyu showed his true colors.
If Zhu Ziyu really had a lover, then if you count carefully, they haven't seen each other for at least a month, because since August she ordered Ah Fei to keep an eye on Zhu Ziyu around the clock.
In this case, it’s not that Zhu Ziyu loses his temper.
For a pair of lovers, it is indeed hard to be apart for such a long time.
"Take me there."
Ah Fei led Jiang Si out through the back door, took a shortcut and quickly arrived at Tianxiang Teahouse.
"Miss, do you want to go up and take a look?" Ah Fei asked in a low voice, hiding behind the tree opposite the teahouse.
Jiang Si shook his head: "No need. Don't worry about Zhu Ziyu coming out later. Follow that woman and find out which mansion she is from."
A long time had passed since Ah Fei brought the news to her until she managed to leave. Now even if she rushed to Tianxiang Tea House, she would not have time to make any arrangements.
The more times like this, the more you should not be impulsive. Making a fuss will only put yourself in a passive position.
In Jiang Si's opinion, if she didn't take action against a man like Zhu Ziyu, then she would be fine. But once she did, she would make sure that he couldn't turn over. Now that she didn't even know the woman's identity, she obviously couldn't act rashly.
She came over just to see with her own eyes what the woman looked like, and to see Zhu Ziyu's reaction.
She believed that no matter how good a man was at hiding his true feelings, it was impossible for him to reveal some clues after a date with his lover, perhaps a pool of spring water in his eyes, or a slight smile on the corner of his mouth...
All of this can only be perceived by seeing it with one’s own eyes.
"Girl, come out."
The first person to come out of the teahouse was Zhu Ziyu.
Jiang Si looked coldly at the man walking away with a smile on his lips, and touched the stinger hidden in his purse expressionlessly.
Stay calm, murder and arson are wrong.
Ah Fei shuddered for no apparent reason.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, a young girl came out of Tianxiang Teahouse with her maid.
"Girl, it's that woman!" Ah Fei reminded.
Jiang Si had already looked past it.
Compared to Zhu Ziyu's triumphant look, the girl who paused for a moment at the door of the teahouse seemed much more ordinary. It was hard to tell that she had just had a date with her lover.
The moment Jiang Si saw the girl's appearance clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank and he revealed a look of extreme surprise.
How could it be her!
