Jiang Wan sat in front of the black-painted desk, quietly listening to Clove's report, as a trace of a contemptuous smile surfaced on her face.

This time, Jiang Shu could be considered to have lifted a rock to smash her own foot, and even implicated a house full of servants.

"..." But Fourth Miss, do you really not need our help? " Clove hurriedly said as she bit her lower lip.

Jiang Wan smiled as she shook her head. There were some things that Jiang Shu could do, but she could not.

Similarly, with the matter of finding someone to help her, the Qin family might have turned a blind eye to Jiang Shu and passed away. If it was her, she would definitely think of a way to make things difficult for her.

As for her, she could only hope that Xiao Rui would continue the conversation. Tonight was the third day, and he said that he would bring a copy of the scripture to find her.

Jiang Wan raised her head and looked out the window at the clear sky. The glaring sun was currently hanging in the dark blue sky, yet no one could feel the slightest bit of warmth.

He must not miss his appointment.

"Fourth Miss, Aunt Zhao is here." Jasmine informed the outside world through the curtain.

Zhao Su Niang? Why would she come today?

"Quick, invite her in." Jiang Wan signaled Clove to stop talking about this matter, then stood up to welcome Zhao Su Niang, who had her head lowered and was closing the curtains.

Today, she was wearing a light green dress with a narrow sleeve, tied in a ponytail. There was only a gold brocade longevity jade hairpin in her hair. Other than that, she was as clean and clean as a small jade.

"Why is Aunt free to come today?" Jiang Wan led her to the window and sat down, then instructed Clove to bring some tea.

Zhao Su Niang took out two flowers from her bosom and placed them in front of Jiang Wan, saying loudly, "Two days ago, Mama Han specially went to find me, saying that she wanted to help Fourth Miss find two flowers. I was busy, so I didn't come to rush her, but when I was free today, I specifically sent it over."

Flowers?

Jiang Wan looked at Zhao Susu with a face full of suspicion.

In the past few days, everyone in the manor knew that they were busy as dogs, so how could they have the time to send people to look for flowers?

And two days ago, he did send his mother to Zhao Su Niang's place, but that was also to give them pastries, so why did he become like that?

Just as she was feeling confused, Jasmine lifted the curtain high up and brought in the two cups of tea. Behind them, a figure was sneaking around the staircase, and Jiang Wan immediately recognized that it was a girl from Jiang Shu's room.

Jiang Wan suddenly understood, and sneered in her heart: What a time, she's still in the mood to send someone to watch me.

And this Zhao Su Niang was indeed a wonderful person!

Seeing that Jiang Wan had understood what was going on, Zhao Su Niang lowered her voice and said, "I presume Fourth Miss has spent a lot of time copying the scriptures these days? I can't help you with anything else, Mother, but I admit that Little Kaid.I wrote it pretty well. If Fourth Miss doesn't mind, I'm willing to share some of the burden with Fourth Miss … "

Looking at Zhao Su Niang's sincere face of helping, Jiang Wan found it embarrassing to admit that she was actually lazy these days.

"How about this, I'll take a look again tonight. If I need your help, I'll definitely go find you." If Xiao Rui sent any copy of the scripture over tonight, they would know. Jiang Wan thought, if he doesn't manage to do it, she at least has a helper on her side.

Zhao Su Niang smiled and nodded, then chatted with Jiang Wan for a while before taking her leave.

Just as she left, someone on Jiang Shu's side was already reporting to her, "… "He said he was here to deliver some flowers to Fourth Young Miss, and it took him only the time it took to drink a cup of tea to make it."

"Watch her closely," the gloomy-faced Jiang Shu ordered the maidservant standing in front of her. "If she dares to make any small movements, she must tell me immediately. At that time, I'll go and tell my mother.

The young maid lowered her head and listened. She couldn't help but shiver. This kind of Fifth Miss was too scary!

Thus, she tremblingly agreed and quickly left.

Since she knew Xiao Rui would be here tonight, Jiang Wan felt a little tired after eating dinner, so she washed up and changed. She sent mother Han and the others out, then lay on the bed to take a nap.

For some reason, she actually fell asleep while pretending to be asleep. It wasn't until the middle of the night that she felt like someone was patting her on the cheek.

Jiang Wan opened her eyes in a daze, only to see Xiao Rui, who was still dressed in his night attire, smiling at her from behind the tent flap. Her hair was tied up into a bun, and a thin layer of water droplets covered her hair.

"Why is it raining?" Jiang Wan rubbed her eyes lazily and sat up from within the brocade blanket opened by the lakegreen magnolia orchids, but she didn't know that because the belt on her clothes had spread out, half of her white shoulders were revealed.

"No, just fog." Xiao Rui suddenly felt that her throat was dry, her eyes did not want to look away from Jiang Wan, and a certain part of her body was gradually changing.

He calmly sat on the edge of Jiang Wan's bed, firmly stepping on her feet to make her bigger. His legs were naturally parallel to the ground, trying to make his embarrassment less obvious.

Jiang Wan, who had slept a little muddle-headedly before, finally reacted now. Why didn't this person care about the defense of men and women at all? If he just sat on his bed without a care in the world, was he going to lose his reputation?

"Someone got caught in the act tonight." Sensing that her body wasn't as tense as before, Xiao Rui explained to Jiang Wan, "That's why we came late."

With that, he moved his gaze from his chest to his chest. From the front of her clothes, she took out an oily paper packet and passed it to Jiang Wan. "I found ten people to copy it together. It's an entire set of < Longevity Scriptures >."

Ten? Doesn't that mean there are all kinds of handwriting?

Jiang Wan stared at him with wide eyes, took the oil paper packet from his hand, opened it to see, and saw that the stack of paper was filled with neatly arranged little kai the hairpin. She flipped through a few pages, but could not find any difference in the handwriting.

"This... "How could that be?" Jiang Wan looked at Xiao Rui Xuan in surprise, her eyes twinkling.

"It's just a hairpin, that's all." Xiao Rui laughed nonchalantly, "This year is the year of the Large Competition. Quite a few examinees have already entered the capital early, so writing down a standard hairpin is not difficult for them. I was just letting them know that copying one scripture would earn them one tael of silver … Naturally, there would be many people who want it. "

A silver tael for a piece of paper?

Looking at Xiao Rui's casual expression, Jiang Wan's hand trembled: there were no less than a hundred sheets of paper in her hand. Then, did that mean he had spent over a hundred taels of silver on this?

When she thought of that, Jiang Wan felt her heart ache.
