Chapter 760： All the noble ladies are disappointed

Chapter 760: The ladies of each family are disappointed

Jiayin frowned slightly and nodded slightly.

Shui Ling handed over a purse with a wink.

The maid accepted it, bowed and thanked her, and then quickly retreated.

Zheng Sanjiang flicked his whip, and the Li family's carriage left.

The Jia family's carriage stayed where it was because Jia Xu was still in the courtyard.

After leaving the Gu family street, Baozhu patted his chest and complained to Jiayin, "Sister Jiayin, the mothers of Sister Mei and Sister Xu are too terrible.

“Obviously we are doing good deeds to save people, but our clothes and skirts are not all wet, just half of our skirts and shoes and socks.

“They looked as if they wanted to eat people, and they even blamed us for leading Sister Xu and Sister Mei astray…”

Hands of good news are actually not happy, but not resentful.

Tianwu is not as open-minded as the previous life. Women here are severely restricted by ethics and education.

With what happened today, if someone twists their mouth and gossips about Xu Xi and Mei Lan, their reputations will be damaged even if it is not true.

Xu Xi and Mei Lan are both at an age where they are looking for a marriage partner. If they fail to find a good match because of this incident, they will really regret it.

At that time, the Xu family and the Mei family will not be able to arrest people in the streets to clear their daughter's grievances.

The so-called spreading rumors is so helpless.

In order to protect their daughter, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Mei acted impolitely, which is understandable.

But at this moment, she had no time to give Baozhu a "lesson", so she could only tell her: "I will send you home in a while. You and your mother will have a good talk about today's events. Your mother will explain the truth to you in detail." .

“I still have some urgent things to do, so I’ll go see you for fun in a few days.”

Baozhu nodded quickly. She was just innocent, not stupid.

Jiayin is a princess, and she must have more responsibilities than a little girl like her.

She readily agreed, "Okay, I'll go home and see my mother first. She's not feeling well today, otherwise it would be great to have a flower viewing party with me, so I don't have to bother to talk to her in detail."

Soon, the carriage arrived at the door of Jia's house.

Jiayin watched Baozhu bring the maid in with her own eyes, and then turned around with confidence.

The incident of water falling into the garden in Gu's yard was quickly settled.

After all, the person who fell into the water was still a little maid, so there was nothing worthy of attention.

But Jia Xu and Lu Zong were still thinking about the treasure and the good news, and sent servants from time to time to inquire about it, for fear that their two sisters would suffer losses or be wronged.

As a result, Jia Xu's servant hurried back.

“Young Master, Mr. Lu, Miss Baozhu and the Princess have already left.”

"When did it happen? Why did you leave so early?" Jia Xu was surprised and asked.

Lu Zong also asked: "Yes, we have only finished half of the flower appreciation feast, why did you leave?"

The boy shook his head and replied: "The maid brought by Miss Baozhu has also left, so I can't ask.

“I just heard that someone fell into the water, but I don’t know if it was a young lady...”

Before he could finish his words, Jia Xu and Lu Zong looked at each other and stood up together, going to the eldest young master of the Gu family to say goodbye.

Today, the eldest young master of the Gu family was entrusted by his aunt to entertain the young masters of various families. Suddenly he heard that Lu Zong was leaving.

Jia Xu is the legitimate son of the Jia family, and has a reputation as a scholar. It is said that he will take part in the national examination in the autumn, and he is very sure of being awarded the gold medal.

Moreover, the Jia family has a simple population and lives in harmony, so it is easy for any daughter to marry into it.

Lu Zong is the prince's son. He is of noble status, modest, handsome and unrestrained.

Whoever can marry him will be the crown prince and the future princess.

The two of them can be said to be the second primary goal of the ladies who came to attend the flower viewing banquet today.

Such a sudden farewell really disappointed many noble ladies.

Zhimin and Xiujie just exchanged a few words with familiar friends. When they turned around, Jia Xu and Lu Zong were nowhere to be seen, and they were still very confused.

At this time, Guo Wenhao stepped forward and said: "It seems that the princess and Miss Jia left in advance, and Brother Jia and Brother Lu also went back afterwards." Zhimin and Xiu Jie were even more curious.

Zhimin asked: "Is there something urgent to deal with, Princess Princess?"

Guo Wenhao shook his head, "I didn't bring the book boy or the boy with me today, otherwise I would have gone to Suijintan to ask. If anything happens, I can help."

Jimin immediately said: "I brought the boy with me!"

After saying that, he called the boy and ordered him to go to Broken Gold Beach.

Of course, he still remembered that he couldn't tell the truth. If the princess didn't go back, wouldn't it make the Li family worried?

So, Zhimin asked the boy to go to Li's house to ask for a jade melon to satisfy his craving on the pretext that he lost a bet with his friends.

In less than half an hour, the boy came back.

Zhimin and Xiujie quickly found a quiet place and asked carefully.

Guo Wenhao also walked over calmly.

The young man wiped his sweat and said, "Young master, the princess has not returned to Broken Gold Beach, so I can only ask for the jade melon.

“Mrs. Li personally took the little man to the melon field and picked two. They are all in the carriage at the moment.”

Jimin frowned, "Then where did the princess's sister go? Isn't she really in an emergency?"

Guo Wenhao lowered his head, his eyes also anxious...

Jiayin didn’t know that their early departure had caused so many people to worry.

She finally found her second uncle in Baiyuan Garden.

Li Laoer is watering the flowers, very leisurely.

In the past two years, he has also learned some skills in growing flowers from Lao Cao.

Although he is still "disliked" by Lao Cao, and he can hear Lao Cao gasping for breath every time he starts pruning, he still enjoys it.

Suddenly seeing his niece coming over, he smiled and said, "Isn't the flower viewing party fun? Why are you back so early?

“Exactly, if you don’t come over, I will talk to you.

“Business has been very good recently. Several pots of good flowers packed in boxes have been sold. I’m just waiting for you to quickly restock.”

Jiayin was not in a hurry to talk about anything. He watered the flowers with his second uncle, and after discussing the potted flowers that needed to be added here, the two of them found a shady place to sit down.

Sister-in-law Cao was about to serve herbal tea, but Shui Ling and Grandma He stopped her.

In the carriage there is a double-layer insulated bucket made by Zhengjiazhuang, which contains a lot of ice cubes and iced fruits.

At this moment, crush the ice cubes, add diced fruits, burn a spoonful of honey, and two bowls of cool and sweet smoothies are ready.

When it's time to serve it to the master, the remaining ice cubes can be used to make seven or eight bowls.

So, the four members of the Cao family and several veterans all took advantage of it and enjoyed the pleasure of eating cold drinks in the middle of summer.

Li Laoer ate half a bowl of smoothie in a few mouthfuls, took a long breath of comfort, then fanned his niece and asked: "Tell me, little girl, did you get into trouble today?

“Your father and the Marquis are not at home, and there is no one to support you, so you come to see your second uncle?”

Hearing the good news, he couldn't help but laugh and shook his head in denial.

“My second uncle still treats me like a child. Now that I’ve gotten into trouble, I can handle it myself!”

Li Laoer looked at his niece, she really didn't mean to be in a hurry, and he became more and more curious.

“Then what happened? Just tell me, my uncle was joking just now.”

Jiayin sipped her smoothie and recounted what happened at the flower viewing banquet, adding a few more words at the end.

“Originally, when I heard people praising me for being lucky, I felt uncomfortable.

“Unexpectedly, when I was leaving, Dean Gu sent someone to tell me that she had someone scare the two little maids and asked something unusual.

"Both two little girls were bribed by others. Their purpose was to lure me to rescue them when they fell into the water, and then they said that I had snatched the half-dead person back from the hands of the Lord of Hell, and I was very lucky."

Li Laoer frowned and put down the smoothie bowl in his hand.
