Chapter 299 Go Back Directly
Steward Jiang stood on the swaying boat and felt his heart swaying with it.
"How could there be no one here? Tian Ming said that the eldest lady lives in that cabin." He wanted to ask Ye Mingzhu if she had found the wrong place, but since she was able to take back all the things in the room, it meant that she definitely had not found the wrong room.
Where did the young lady go? Manager Jiang's head was buzzing and his headache started to hurt again.
Ye Mingzhu wrapped herself in a blanket and looked at him: "Butler, should we go back and ask which cabin the young lady is in?"
Manager Jiang nodded immediately: "Yes, yes, we will go back now and ask Tian Ming how he got the boat and why he doesn't know who is staying in which cabin."
He was gritting his teeth as he spoke the last part. He simply couldn't express his disappointment in Tian Ming.
Tian Ming has been with him for many years. Jiang Yue said at the beginning that she didn't want to be a concubine, and he wanted Jiang Yue to marry Tian Ming, but Jiang Yue fell in love with Wang Dahu. Although he was dissatisfied, it was his daughter's lifelong event after all, so he still listened to his daughter.
But he didn't expect that Tian Ming had caused him such a big trouble without saying anything. Wang Dahu's niece came to help remedy the situation, but found that it was impossible to remedy the situation.
If it weren't for his years of self-cultivation, he would have wanted to curse.
Ye Mingzhu didn't say anything. She had completed half of her mission anyway. As long as she knew the cabin of Miss Pengzhi, her mission would be successfully completed.
Manager Jiang personally rowed the boat back. He asked Ye Mingzhu to go back and rest first, and he would come to see her after he got accurate information.
Ye Mingzhu nodded obediently and returned to the cabin. When Wang Dahu wanted to ask about the situation, she waved her hand.
The situation is so complicated now, it’s better for my uncle not to get involved.
Ye Mingzhu originally thought that Manager Jiang would get the news soon, but she waited until she fell asleep and Manager Jiang never sent anyone to find her.
When Manager Jiang found her again, it was the afternoon of the next day, and Ye Mingzhu had just finished her meal.
When Wang Dahu came to call Ye Mingzhu, he carefully reminded him: "The steward is not in a good mood right now."
When Ye Mingzhu saw Manager Jiang, she realized that her uncle's description was totally inaccurate. Manager Jiang was not just in a bad mood; he was like a furious lion or an angry elephant, ready to explode.
It was only when facing Ye Mingzhu that he was able to suppress his anger.
"Mingzhu, the young lady of the master's family is in this cabin." He took a piece of paper from the table and handed it to Ye Mingzhu, pointing to a circled location.
The location of the sunken ship appeared in Ye Mingzhu's mind, and her face turned a little unhappy: "This cabin is at the very back and inconspicuous. Why is the young lady here?"
Steward Jiang looked embarrassed and said in a whisper, "This cabin is the young lady's bathroom."
Ye Mingzhu first frowned, then glared, and finally opened her mouth: "Could it be that the young lady was taking a bath at that time?"
Manager Jiang turned his head away. He really couldn't discuss such things with a girl who was younger than his daughter.
But he had confirmed with Tian Ming countless times from last night until now, and Tian Ming said that the eldest lady lived in that cabin, but the eldest lady had a habit of taking a bath every day, even if there was only a basin of water, she would still rinse.
Tian Ming gave the eldest lady the key to a small cabin so that she could go there directly when she wanted to take a shower.
Among those who escaped from the ship this time, there was no one from the kitchen, so no one could say for sure whether the eldest lady boiled water that night.
But the eldest lady was not in the cabin, so we could only guess that she was taking a bath that night.
Ye Mingzhu was so angry that she almost wanted to kill someone. She asked incoherently, "If the young lady is, um, in the bathroom, how do I pull her up?"
We have to prepare suitable clothes for the young lady, right? But wearing clothes under the sea? Forgive her for not being able to do that.
Manager Jiang did not make things difficult for her: "If..., you take a set of clothes, wrap the young lady in it, and put it in the bag. I will send someone to buy a maid with a death contract, and let her do the rest.
Ye Mingzhu frowned. This was probably the best way.
"Don't get me clothes. Just get a piece of cloth. It's more convenient."
Manager Jiang did not object and went straight to his room to find a piece of cloth.
This was salvaged by Tian Ming and his team from the sunken ship.
When he saw the cloth, Manager Jiang wanted to curse again. When he could fish out the cloth, why didn’t he think about rescuing the people?
If he knew that the fabric was bought for him by Tian Ming's subordinates, he probably wouldn't have such doubts.
But the matter has become so serious that no one below dares to speak about it, so Tian Ming has to take the blame.
Manager Jiang finally managed to survive in the room until night, then he took Ye Mingzhu and Wang Dahu and left on a small boat.
He had to bring Wang Dahu with him. He was afraid that something might happen again and he would be angry to death. With Wang Dahu around, he could help.
Ye Mingzhu dived onto the sunken ship with ease, and encouraged herself before taking out the dagger.
If that young lady wasn't in the bathroom, she decided to open all the doors. She really didn't want to do it again.
Fortunately, this time, she was not disappointed. The eldest lady was indeed here, and she was wearing her inner clothes.
The situation was much better than she had imagined. She still wrapped the person with cloth as planned, stuffed him into the bag, and then slowly dived up.
But it was too heavy. Even with the pearl, she still felt pressured. She didn't want to put the bag into the space, so she could only grit her teeth and persevere. She swam upstream for a while before tying the bag with a rope, letting go, and floating to the surface.
Manager Jiang and Wang Dahu felt the rope in their hands sink and they were almost pulled off the boat.
After finally stabilizing himself and pulling for a while, he found Ye Mingzhu's head showed up.
Wang Dahu relaxed a little, tried to open his eyes wide, looked at Ye Mingzhu, and breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't find anything wrong.
Manager Jiang was speechless. He was old and had not had enough rest in the past few days. He ran out of strength after just a short while.
Ye Mingzhu swam to the bow of the boat and discovered the problem between the two. She took a deep breath and dived into the water again. Wang Dahu didn't even have a chance to call her.
With the mentality of helping others to the end, Ye Mingzhu helped carry the bag onto the boat, and then wrapped herself in a quilt and shivered. It was not because she was afraid, but because she was tired. The bag was too heavy.
Wang Dahu was also very tired, but seeing his niece's "frightened" look, he tried hard to row towards the big boat.
When they got on the big ship, thanks to Tian Ming's help, they were able to move the bags onto the ship.
Tian Ming bowed his head to the furious Jiang Daguanshi: "Daguanshi, I will take responsibility for my own mistakes."
Since the steward Jiang kept asking about the details on the ship yesterday, he realized that the steward Jiang should be preparing to rescue people. Waiting here today really helped.
Manager Jiang ignored him and said directly to Wang Dahu, "Dahu, you two should take the boat and go back directly."
