Peasant Woman is in Her Prime - C164

“Five years.” Wen Mei immediately returned obediently, “This servant, this servant came here at the age of twelve. It’s been a whole five years!”

“Yes.” Jin Xiaolou lightly snorted, “Have you been following Nan Yang all this time?”

Wen Mei coldly shrugged her shoulders: “This servant was originally here to look after the flowers and herbs. The second year of winter, I only got Big Sister Nan Yang to bring me to her side to work.”

“That’s been with her for four years.” Jin Xiaolou sighed, and then changed the topic, “Even if you followed her for four years, you still have to remember, you are someone from the Rainbow Garden, someone from Seventh Elder, and not someone from her, Nan Yang.”

“Yes, yes.” Wen Mei was so shocked that she immediately kneeled down, “This servant is naturally Seventh Elder’s person. Nan Yang, Big Sister Nan Yang is also Seventh Elder’s person.”

“Nan Yang is wholeheartedly trying to help seventh grandfather, but she can’t help but do the wrong thing out of good intentions.” “If you know anything, you’d better tell me everything right now. Otherwise, if I find out by now, even if Rainbow Garden cannot keep Nan Yang, it will naturally not be able to keep you either.”

Wen Mei was even more surprised. From Madam’s words, it seemed like she knew something.

She had already done things that she did not know whether she was right or wrong, so when she heard this, she raised her head and saw Seventh Master’s cold eyes staring at her. She immediately panicked and could only kowtow towards them.

Seeing her act this way, Jin Xiaolou paused, “If you have something to say, just say it, it’s related to Seventh Elder and not a small matter.”

“I …” Wen Mei no longer kowtowed, she lowered her head, and hesitated for a long time. In the end, she clenched her teeth, “This servant … This servant really doesn’t know anything. Big Sister Nan Yang has been staying in the Rainbow Garden all day, and nothing much has happened … ”

Jin Xiaolou clenched her fists. This little girl was truly loyal.

Just as he was thinking about how to open Wen Mei’s mouth, he suddenly heard a commotion outside the window.

Someone shouted, “He went into the water!”

Jin Xiaolou turned her head to look, only to see that behind the white wall of the garden, thick smoke was billowing out, mixed with scattered sparks.

Suddenly standing up, Jin Xiaolou rushed out: “Lin’er, where is Lin’er?”

Gao Lang immediately caught up and carried Jin Xiaolou in his arms. “My wife, don’t worry. With that Chang An guy watching over us, Lin’er is safe.”

Just as Gao Lang finished speaking, he saw Chang An walking out from the wall with Lin’er in his arms.

Just then, Chang An’s face turned anxious, he ran to the front of the Bi Wu Hall, and said to Gao Lang: “Seventh Elder, the fire is coming from the direction of the stone house, I’m afraid that Yu Su has something on her mind.”

Gao Lang nodded, and accepted the gift from the Lin’er. He then lightly kissed the side of her hair: “It’s a mess outside, my wife is eating fruit in the house, reading a book, I’ll be right back.”

Jin Xiaolou nodded. After seeing Gao Lang’s and Chang An’s figures disappear into the green clouds, she turned around and returned to her room. The moment she turned around, he saw Wen Mei kneeling in place with a startled expression.

Wen Mei muttered: “Yu Su…”

Hearing Jin Xiaolou walk in, she immediately raised her head and asked: “Madam, you closed Yu Su up?”

Within the circumference of a room, a servant had been imprisoned who had committed a crime and no one was unaware of his Rainbow Garden. But Wen Mei could not understand, why would Yu Su be in the Rainbow Garden stone hut …

“That’s right, we have sealed Yu Su.” Jin Xiaolou’s eyes flashed, “Yu Su is related to the crown prince’s death.”

“The crown prince’s death?” Wen Mei was so scared that her lips started to tremble and his speech became unclear, “How is that possible, how is that possible? Yu Su, she… Yu Su, she… ”

Jin Xiaolou saw that Wen Mei’s words were about to come out, so she hurriedly placed the Lin’er in the cradle suspended above the bed and gave him a rattle.

The little Lin’er obediently sat in the cradle, holding onto his rattle as he enjoyed himself.

Jin Xiaolou then slowly walked in front of Wen Mei and stooped down to help her up: “You are a good girl, Nan Yang is the same, but there are many situations you have yet to see clearly.”

Jin Xiaolou held Wen Mei’s hand, looked into her eyes, and said: “Some of the enemies that you think are not your enemies, and some of your friends, are truly unapproachable.”

Jin Xiaolou’s eyes were like the spring water with peach blossoms, like the clear sky at the height of summer, looking straight into the hearts of others.

Wen Mei immediately felt that the extremely lowly peasant girl that she had always hated was actually someone that no one dared to look down on. Furthermore, it gave rise to a feeling that he wanted to focus her heart on her.

“Madam …” Wen Mei called out to Jin Xiaolou for his first wife from the bottom of her heart, “Yu Su … Yu Su is someone from the Fifth Prince, how could she be related to the crown prince’s death? ”

Although Jin Xiaolou and Gao Lang had already guessed that Yu Su was either Noble Yang or someone from the Fifth Prince, hearing Wen Mei say this caused their hearts to jump.

“Did you or Nan Yang see the Fifth Prince?” Jin Xiaolou asked.

Since Nan Yang had the same smell as him, and instead went to the in the Liusu Pavilion, Jin Xiaolou believed in her intuition, since Nan Yang and Wen Mei had moved separately, when one of them had seen Yu Su, and the other had seen the Fifth Prince.

That smell must have been smeared on Yu Su’s body, or else … It was from the Fifth Prince. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that the two of them painted the same thing, and it was even so rare to see rouge like this before?

“It’s big sister Nan Yang.” The moment she opened her mouth, Wen Mei told him the whole story, “Sister Nan Yang doesn’t like Madam, I believe Madam knows about it.”

Wen Mei was no longer worried, everyone was already aware of this matter.

“Sister Nan Yang misunderstood that Madam and Seventh Elder had the money to be greedy for Master, so she thought of a way to chase Madam out of the Rainbow Garden.” Wen Mei lowered her head, secretly lifting her eyes, seeing that Jin Xiaolou did not have an angry look, she felt at ease and followed, “In the capital, the only person who can compete with Seventh Elder is the Fifth Prince, so Big Sister Nan Yang planned to borrow the Fifth Prince’s hand to separate Seventh Elder and Madam.”

Wen Mei’s voice was very soft. “What’s wrong?!” “Why didn’t Big Sister Nan Yang tell me in detail? She only said that there is a person in Fifth Prince’s hands, and if you hold onto that person, you will definitely listen to her obediently.”

“People?” Jin Xiaolou raised her eyebrows slightly, “Lin’er?”

Gao Lang did not need to worry, at the moment, only the Lin’er was her weakness.

Wen Mei hurriedly shook her head, “No, Lin’er is seventh grandfather’s flesh and blood, Big Sister Nan Yang will definitely not touch him!”

Jin Xiaolou shook her head. Who else?

However, she did not have time to ponder over it, as the matter before her was even more urgent, so she could only continue: “If you have any requests, you must give them to me. What did Nan Yang promise Fifth Prince?”

Wen Mei swallowed her saliva: “It’s all just a small matter. Big Sister Nan Yang asked me to memorize the layout of Seventh Elder’s study and to tell Yu Su about it through the Liusu Pavilion two days ago. And also asked me to take Seventh Elder’s piece of writing paper to the Liusu Pavilion and pass to Yu Su yesterday … ”

Saying that, Wen Mei took out a piece of paper from her sleeves and gave it to Jin Xiaolou: “But when I went to look for you yesterday, Yu Su was not in the pavilion, and I was unable to hand over this piece of paper.”

On the white colored Xuan paper, there were some random words written by Gao Lang. Jin Xiaolou took a look and felt that it was really dangerous.

Fortunately, Wen Mei went late yesterday and this thing did not fall into Yu Su’s hands.

Jin Xiaolou threw the paper in her hand onto the table and instructed Wen Mei to take care of Lin’er. Then, she rushed out of her room and headed in the direction of the stone hut.

The intentions of the Fifth Prince was extremely clear. Nan Yang and Wen Mei thought that these were insignificant matters, because they did not know that Yu Su was related to the crown prince’s death.

With the two linked together, Fifth Prince wanted to throw the blame onto Gao Lang!

After exiting the courtyard, the more they walked towards the stone hut, the thicker the smoke became. According to the Attendant, what was ignited was not the stone hut, but the bamboo forest outside the stone hut.

The fire spread from the bamboo forest all the way to the pile of grass at the back of the mountain, almost setting the entire mountain on fire.

The men from the fire brigade had put out the fire, but the smoke was still coming.

When Jin Xiaolou rushed there, Yu Su and the guards of the justice courts were no longer there. Only the Attendant s with Rainbow Garden were left there, as well as Huo Yan Ben to guard against it. After saying that the person who came to save the fire had just opened the stone hut, Yu Su pulled on the sleeves of the others and said that she had confessed everything.

Jin Xiaolou had a bad premonition in her heart. She turned her head and exited the Rainbow Garden, rushing towards the justice courts.

The young noble of the Supreme Court, Bai Ruyi, was sitting by her side. The one sitting on the seat at the head was Gao Lang, who was being pulled down and kneeling down.

The silver syringe stood open in front of them.

Just as Jin Xiaolou went to the front of the hall, she saw Nan Yang and Chang An standing outside.

“I admit it, I admit it all!” When Yu Su said this, her tears fell like beads with the strings cut, “It’s Seventh Prince, he ordered me to do it, she ordered me to do it all!”

Nan Yang was originally standing in front, but after hearing her words, her legs went soft, and she quickly retreated two steps back, just in time to lean on Jin Xiaolou’s body.
