In the evening, the drizzling rain that lasted for almost an entire afternoon gradually stopped. A smear of dark red drifted from the horizon, blending with the gray twilight. The air was filled with the freshness after the rain, yet also carried a hint of coolness.

Jin Lan unconsciously pulled up the cloak on his body. The cloak that he was originally wearing was soaked with water vapor, so the old lady ordered someone to take out the peacock pattern, red and gold plate pomegranate cloak that was embroidered for her.

Viper peacock tails were wrapped around the pomegranates that were embroidered with golden threads. Occasionally, the pomegranates that were revealed were inlaid with rubies that were grinded to the same size as rice grains. The entire cloak was extremely luxurious. The sky had already darkened. If it was daytime, it would be even more dazzling.

I heard that this cloak belongs to the old lady. In her previous life, she had seen it once before, before her wedding, in a make-up case that the old lady sent over.

Yet, he was already wearing it on her body. It was truly like a toy.

Jin Lan laughed coldly in his heart and tossed this matter to the back of his mind.

No matter what the old lady did, it was all for those purposes. At the very least, what she wanted to do now was similar to what the old lady had thought. Perhaps it would be easier to borrow the old lady's hand.

Mu Lan and Wen Zhu sat inside the Side Chamber uneasily until Jin Lan came out safely. Only then did they heave a huge sigh of relief.

Jin Lan suddenly raised her hand to hold onto the hairpin, and used it to obstruct the Mama Wu as she quickly gave Mu Lan a meaningful glance.

Seeing that, Mu Lan could only suppress the questions on his mouth.

The Mama Wu ordered for two palace lamps to be brought out and said smilingly: "The sky is getting darker and the road behind the rain is slippery, so young lady should be more careful on your way." With that, she withdrew her smile and instructed Mu Lan Wen Zhu: "You must take good care of this lady!"

Mu Lan and Wen Zhu accepted the lantern and replied respectfully: "Yes."

Jin Lan made up a few casual words with the Mama Wu, and then released his Jiayu Hall under the crowd of people.

Returning to the Lan Garden, Jin Lan asked the old gatekeeper to bolt the door early, then called Mama Tang and Mu Lan into the house. Only then did he tell her what had happened in the old lady's room.

Mu Lan could no longer hold it in and anxiously asked: "Miss, how can you agree to this old lady's request?"

Jin Lan looked at Mu Lan, who then realized that he had misspoken and immediately shut his mouth, his expression stuttering.

The Mama Tang also did not expect that just by paying her respects, she would already be trapped inside the Jiayu Hall. But in the end, she understood Jin Lan better than Mu Lan, and knew that this decision had its own reasons. After thinking for a moment, she said, "If young lady stays by the old lady's side, what about the old lady's side?"

Jin Lan then said slowly: "This is what I want to say. Since the old lady is determined to keep me in the Jiayu Hall, there is a high chance that I have something to do with mother. She is simply afraid that Mother will use me to make things difficult for Concubine Shao or hurt her stomach. Since mother and I don't want to talk about it, so what if we agree to the old lady's request? Besides, if I live in the old lady's house, I might even be able to make those hidden people jump out accidentally. "

Now, she just felt that the water in the mansion wasn't enough.

The poison in his mother's body should be dispelled as soon as possible, but with the old lady's plans and Concubine Ning's plans, as well as the Concubine Shao with a big belly, they couldn't avoid the poison even if they couldn't avoid it. They had to completely muddy the water in order to find an opportunity.

After pondering for a moment, she raised her head and asked: "Mama, have you delivered the things I asked you to send?"

Mama Tang hurriedly nodded, "Don't worry miss, this servant has already ordered some people to deliver the items to the Meng Mansion, I think that there will be news in two days."

Jin Lan calmed down a little. Based on her relationship with Meng Ruhan, this small matter was nothing to her.

After giving a few words of advice, she sent Mu Lan out, tightly gripped Mama Tang's hands and said seriously: "Mama, from tomorrow onwards, you must personally help with the things that are sent to Shuixie Pavilion, you must definitely not do it yourself! Even when you are in my mother's room, you have to personally attend to her, and do not let a third person get their hands on you, even Man Ping who is in front of my mother cannot! " With that, she thought for a while, then added, "If you meet Doctor Gong, it will be fine."

Mama Tang also knew that this was a big matter. She nodded her head heavily and replied solemnly: "Young lady, please rest assured. I will save it all!"

"In that case, I'll leave the Lan Garden to Mama." In this house right now, the Mama Tang was the person she trusted the most.

However, this matter was related to her mother's safety. Although the matters of the Doctor Gong were already settled, both internally and externally, she was still unable to relax even a little.

No matter what, she had to protect her mother and not let the evil scheme from her previous life succeed!

Early in the morning on the second day, Jin Lan brought Mu Lan to the Jiayu Hall to pay respects to the old lady.

Once this matter had been spread, the seemingly harmonious Ye Mansion undercurrents became even more anxious. Although the Madame SHen was anxious, she did not say much;

"I knew it wouldn't be a good thing for that damned girl to come back. She managed to win over the old lady in just a few days. What's the point in trying to recruit her?" "That slut from before was almost unable to get up, but now, her spirit is getting better and better every day, and she could even wander around the garden yesterday. Seeing her smiling face, how could she be a dying person?"

Su Xin glanced at her protruding abdomen, and pretended to be helpless: "Now that Second Miss is coaxing the old lady, and even the old lady's expression towards my wife is much better, all sorts of tonics are being given to the Shuixie Pavilion, my wife is naturally more spirited than before."

After the Concubine Shao heard this, her anger flared up even more. A demonic fire burned in her heart, and she used the teacup on the table to smash it onto Su Xin's body, "Do you think you need to tell me about this? If I had said earlier, all of you would have been more nimble. You all drag your feet and think that I wouldn't be able to see clearly if I was blind? "

The cup of tea heavily smashed onto Su Xin's body, it was extremely painful, but luckily the tea water inside had become warm, if not for the spring clothes on her body, she would have been scalded.

Su Xin's heart was filled with hatred, but her face still had a look of fear. She couldn't be bothered with the broken teacup on the floor, and kneeled on the ground with a thump to defend herself: "This servant knows my wrongs, Aunt, calm down, don't hurt my own body."

Concubine Shao looked on coldly, only after a long while did the anger in her heart dissipate, and said snappily: "Alright, you can get up."

Su Xin then quickly got up, endured the pain on her knees, and went up to support Concubine Shao, carefully sitting on the soft couch. She then neatly cleaned up the mess on the ground and brewed some tea, which was then sent up.

The fragrance of tea lingered around the room as Su Xin waited quietly by the side. After Concubine Shao's complexion gradually recovered, she opened her mouth and said softly: "According to Steward Li's schedule, Mo will take another half a month to return home, and this servant did not expect that Second Miss would suddenly return."

Seeing that she did not react, Su Xin continued to speak: "With Second Miss in front of Madam, if we take action again, I'm afraid that Second Miss will sense us. After all, Second Miss is not a wife. " She would trust the people in the Shuixie Pavilion to the end.

The Concubine Shao thought for a bit, then said: "That's true, that damned girl is really crafty, if she is not careful, she would take the chance to kill me."

Su Xin nodded her head and continued in a low voice: "Now, Second Miss is serving in front of the old lady, he does not have free time all day, he even has less time to go to my house, with the old lady meddling, my wife will feel more at ease too."

"You mean …" Concubine Shao suspiciously sized up Su Xin for a good while, then suddenly his eyes lit up, "That's right, I forgot about this, I believe that all the food in Shuixie Pavilion should be handed over to the old lady. According to the old lady's thoughts, I definitely do not want the mother and daughter to get close, as long as the old lady gets caught up in that damned girl …" After she finished speaking, she coldly snorted, her eyes filled with venom.

Although she hated that Madame SHen slut for blocking her way, she also blamed the old lady.

How many unclean things had she been doing all these years, and what hadn't the old lady taught her? In the end, not only did the old bastard not gain any benefits, he even took Yan Rong out to fight against her!

When she thought about how her master was resting in Yan Rong's room all night, it was as if her heart was bitten by a poisonous snake. She wanted to tear the little slut apart on the spot!

Although she loved Yu Ge'er dearly, she still treated him coldly. The peacock pattern, vermilion plate, golden-embroidered pomegranate cloak that she had secretly begged countless times for First Miss to not let go, she had easily given it to that damned girl.

If he had that cape long ago, perhaps the First Miss would have been able to show his face in the capital!

The more he thought about it, the harder it became for Concubine Shao to sit still, the more the handkerchief in her hand was almost torn apart by sher. Her initially hesitant heart immediately settled, and her sharp eyes stared at Su Xin as he viciously spoke: "This way, find an opportunity to secretly go to Shuixie Pavilion, and let that person settle this matter as soon as possible!"

"Yes." Su Xin lowered her head and replied, a strange light flashing through her eyes.

Three days later, the Meng Family invitation arrived in front of Jin Lan. Looking at the graceful little boy on the card, Jin Lan's heart finally calmed down a bit.

As soon as she returned, she wrote a letter and had the Mama Tang secretly send it to the Meng Mansion.

It was a very elegant affair for a girl to admire a flower on a spring day. A piece of Meng Mansion Paste was enough for her to walk out of the Ye Family confidently while concealing it from the eyes of others at the same time.

"Since that's the case, you can go. I saw that young lady from Meng Family last time, and they were also good acquaintances." Old Madame Ye squinted her eyes as she read the invitation, but she was not opposed to it, "Just remember this, in Meng Mansion, you can't compare to your family, so don't be rude!"

"Grandmother, rest assured, Lan Er will definitely not do anything that would disgrace our Ye Family." Seeing that the old lady didn't stop him, Jin Lan heaved a sigh of relief and replied obediently.

The Flower Viewing Banquet was only the predetermined reason. She wanted to use this opportunity to personally find the shopkeeper with the surname 'Shi'!
