Chapter 733 The boldest girl in the world!
That night, they sent news to each house.
Hearing that Lord Kangle came forward to intercede with the Marquis, everyone in the family was overjoyed.
Therefore, several more families came to the Liu family and Jia family to ask for help.
Early on the next morning, the gift list was delivered to Li's house.
Jiayin added a few more names to the list and set off in the car.
The Marquis has been interrogating everyone in Yaochi these days. He must not be well fed or housed well.
So, Mrs. Li and Tao Hongying worked hard all morning and prepared a lot of food, as well as clean clothes and shoes for Mr. Hou.
Sure enough, the Marquis was looking through a stack of confession sheets. When he heard that his daughter had arrived in the row room of the palace, he immediately got up, tidied his clothes, and checked whether there was any dirt or blood on his body and the soles of his shoes.
The housekeeper of the Hou Mansion happened to be waiting nearby, so he put down the teapot in his hand and said, "Master Hou, I was so busy that I forgot. You just changed your clothes and shoes in the morning."
The Marquis breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his painful temples, and then asked the housekeeper to invite his daughter in.
Jiayin glanced at her adoptive father and saw that he was very tired, but she didn't mention it. She ran over and said with a smile: "Father! You haven't been home for several days. Grandma was worried about it, so she asked me to come and deliver it to her adoptive father. It’s delicious!”
The Marquis took his daughter and sat beside him, and asked, "What are you busy with at home? You haven't gone out to cause trouble in the past two days, right?"
"Of course not," Jiayin couldn't help but laugh: "Grandpa Zhang is so sorry, he can't wait for a thief to come to his door every day.
“He has several new drugs stored there, but he has no one to help him test them.”
The Marquis also smiled and responded: "When I finish my work here, if there are suitable ones, help him find a few."
Jiayin nodded, opened the food box, and took out a plate of Shaomai with pork, corn, and shrimp, a large bowl of red dates and millet porridge, a plate of beef with coriander, and a plate of cucumber with soy sauce.
“Father, please help your mother, I helped my mother do this!”
Jiayin handed the chopsticks to Mr. Hou, who took them and started eating.
The housekeeper glanced at the food in the warm cage and said nothing.
He brought food over in the morning, but unfortunately the Marquis has been busy and has no time to eat.
Now that the princess has brought the food, the Marquis immediately started using his chopsticks...
Mr. Hou was also really hungry. He ate half full in one go and then slowed down.
Jiayin took advantage of this moment to pour a cup of tea for her adoptive father with her own hands and said, "Father, what should we do with the girls at the flower viewing banquet at the Princess Mansion?
“Yesterday, people from the Liu family’s aunt, the second wife of the Jia family, and my master’s aunt sent gift lists. Through them, they wanted my family to come forward and plead with you.
“A girl’s reputation is too important. If things go wrong, they may hang themselves.
“So, I thought of asking my adoptive father, if these people are not important, would my adoptive father show me some respect?”
The Marquis smiled, took a piece of Shaomai and fed it to the fat girl, and asked, "What? Are there any good things you want in those people's gift lists?"
"No!" Jiayin munched on Shaomai and protested vaguely, "Of course the adoptive father's errand is important, but... it would be better to make a small fortune without delaying the adoptive father."
Now let alone the Marquis, even the chief steward laughed.
Master Hou finished the remaining food in several mouthfuls, drank some tea, and said, "Bring me the list, let me take a look."
Jiayin quickly picked up the list. The Marquis glanced at it and circled five of them with his pen.
“These five have smoked hibiscus ointment several times and need to make oral confessions. The rest smoked it for the first time at the flower viewing party and do not need to make confessions.”
Hou Ye passed the list to Jiayin and said: "For the five people who drew circles, I will find someone who pretends to be from Xiuzhuang and come to the door to make a confession.
“Let these families be prepared and try not to ruin the reputation of these girls.
"The remaining ones told them to avoid the limelight and the matter would be over." "Go to the emperor later and I will talk about it."
“It’s not serious, the emperor won’t hold on to a few little girls, and the eldest princess who was the culprit has already confessed her crime.”
Jiayin was so happy that she collected the list and asked: "Father, these five girls have taken it a few times and they must be addicted.
“I’ll go back to Grandpa Zhang to see if I can figure out a prescription and help them?”
The Marquis nodded, yawned, and responded: "Okay, you can look at the arrangements. The list will be announced to the outside world. You can do it or not. If you come to plead for mercy, it will naturally not be announced.
“Whatever generous gifts they give you, you should just accept them.”
After saying that, he yawned again, as if his eyelids were heavy.
Soon, he couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep on the table.
Jiayin quickly called the housekeeper for help and helped the Marquis to the makeshift bed.
Jiayin was busy helping her adoptive father take off his shoes, cover him with a quilt, and gave instructions to the surprised butler beside him.
“Uncle Steward, I think my stepfather is very tired. He must have not slept for two or three days.
"So, I just put some medicinal powder in his tea, which should make him sleep soundly for an hour. You must stay close to him here."
“Okay, okay!” The chief steward quickly responded, feeling very uneasy.
The only one in the world who dared to drug his master and then left his master unprepared for the attack, was this fat girl!
Jiayin packed up her things quickly and ran away.
Although Mrs. Jia Er was asked to bring good things back to Baozhu yesterday, Jiayin still misses this little friend.
So she went for a walk among the white clouds, packed some snacks, and went to Jia's house.
Sure enough, as soon as Baozhu saw the good news, he hugged her and never let go.
“Sister Jiayin, did the third princess bully you that day at the Princess Mansion? Ugh, I was scared to death! Did you see the doctor? Did you take the bitter medicine?
“I listened to you and didn’t go anywhere when I got home. I’m so good!”
Jiayin felt warm in her heart, greeted Mrs. Jia and the second wife, and ran to Baozhu's room.
Two little sisters sat together, head to head, talking quietly while eating.
Jiayin told Baozhu the dangers of hibiscus cream as simply as possible, reminding her to stay away from it in the future.
He also made it clear how the third princess and Bao Lei were jealous of her and even framed her.
She didn't expect Baozhu to understand it instantly, but at least she wanted to leave an impression in her heart.
In this way, if others want to plot against the orb and achieve the purpose of plotting against themselves, the orb will also be somewhat on guard.
Baozhu is like a hamster, with his mouth full. He nods from time to time, and I don’t know how much she listens...
At the middle of the sun, the Marquis woke up from his deep sleep and opened his eyes. He was still a little dazed for a while, but when he remembered what happened before, he immediately turned over and sat up.
The housekeeper hurriedly came forward to serve him and whispered the matter. The Marquis was really dumbfounded.
This fat girl is so courageous!
Fortunately, there was no urgent errand, and no one from the palace was sent to summon him. Otherwise, he would have missed something important.
But he also knew that the fat girl felt sorry for him because he was too tired these days.
So, he took it easy, packed his things and went into the palace.
After three days of busy work, the hibiscus ointment case finally came to an end.
