The night was dark, and the green screen door with carved flowers and grasses looked peaceful and quiet under the shroud of the bright moonlight.
Jiang Xichong nodded slightly to Aman, and said softly, "Go ahead."
Aman got the order, took out a key from the purse around his waist, and stepped forward lightly to unlock it.
As the key was turned slightly, the door lock made a slight click and opened.
Aman's palm holding the key was already wet, and when he was relieved, he felt his heart beating like thunder.
Seeing this, Jiang Shi showed a faint smile.
Not long ago, she instructed Aman to drink wine with the old woman who was in charge of the keys to the second door. When the old woman drank too much, she took the opportunity to find out the key and stamped it on the prepared pieces of fragrant pancreas, and took it outside to play. Several new keys are coming.
It's just that whether the key made in this way can open the door lock depends on luck. Fortunately, one of the five keys can finally be opened.
Aman pushed the door open little by little, his eyes bright: "Girl—"
At this time, I suddenly heard a creaking sound, which was especially harsh in this night when I heard birds and insects.
The master and servant looked at each other, and both saw the horror in the other's eyes.
Jiang Si reacted quickly, dragged Aman Diao down, and saw the old woman who was guarding the door coming out, rubbing her eyes and walking towards the latrine, but she didn't even look here.
Jiang seemed to rush through the side door, followed by Aman, closing the door gently.
After the false alarm, Ah Man showed a happy smile: "It's dangerous!"
Jiang seems to have sorted out his mood, and said lightly: "Don't talk too much, go quickly."
The master and servant walked forward along the corner of the wall, and Jiang Si suddenly stopped after walking for about a cup of tea.
A Man looked around, a little dazed: "Girl, how do we get out?"
She can manage to get the key to open the second door, but the door will not be closed. There is no reason for the girl's personal maid to ask the old porter for a drink.
"Come with me." Jiang Shi went around a clump of flowers and trees, bent over and pushed aside the lush green grass in the corner, revealing a hole.
A Man suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Girl, why is there a hole here?"
Jiang Si didn't answer, but leaned over and got out of the hole, and was blown by the night wind outside the house, looking up at the night sky for a moment in a trance.
At that time, her brother Jiang Zhan was ignorant in her eyes. She ignored him all the time. Once, she accidentally saw him crawling out of this hole, apparently sneaking out to play.
She sneered at that time, and looked down on him more and more, and didn't even have the intention of informing the steward to plug the hole.
In her opinion, her brother is the mud that can't support the wall, there is no need to save it, it is better to hide away and be quiet.
But Jiang Zhan died in the autumn after she left the cabinet, and only after hearing the bad news did she realize that she would also be sad.
The elder brother who sent her the rose lotus seed cake bought from the street even after being whipped by her father was gone.
"Girl—" Ah Man, who came out of the hole, saw Jiang seemed to be in a trance, and called out softly.
Jiang Si retracted his thoughts and laughed at himself.
At that time, I was really blinded by lard. No matter how outstanding the second uncle's big brother was, he would not give her rose lotus seed cakes. No matter how unsatisfactory her brother was, his love for her was genuine.
"Let's go." Jiang Shi regained his composure, calculated the time, and walked quickly towards Moyou Lake with Ah Man.
Fortunately, the curfew was lifted at that time, and Moyou Lake and Dongpingbo Mansion were both in the west of the city, which provided Jiang Si with great convenience.
The master and servant hurried there, and by the bright moonlight, they saw a pair of figures standing by the lake from a distance.
Ah Man was startled at the time, and said in a low voice, "Girl, there really is someone!"
Jiang Si expressionlessly pointed to a stubborn rock with the three characters "Moyou Lake" standing by the lake.
The stone was more than half a zhang high, and it was more than enough for people to hide behind the stone.
Ah Man understood, and followed Jiang Si to hide there.
Jiang Si held the stone wall with his hands, and there was a faint warmth in the palm of his hand. It was the heat accumulated by the stone wall during the day that had not dissipated.
Soon the sound of sobbing was blowing along the wind by the lake, and Jiang Xi couldn't help but look around.
The moonlight was bright and bright, clearly showing the two of them.
The man was thin, almost a head taller than the woman, and it was Jiang Si's fiancé, Ji Chongyi.
Jiang Si's gaze swept across Ji Chongyi's handsome face and landed on the woman's face.
She has always been curious about what the woman who can make Ji Chongyi guard her newlywed wife like a flower and jade never touch her looks like.
When she married, the woman was no longer alive, and it was not until tonight that she had a chance to see her true face.
The woman is petite, with a pair of big misty eyes under Liu Ye's eyebrows. Even though she is bathed in moonlight, she can still tell that her complexion is not fair.
Jiang Si's mood was a little complicated for a moment.
In all fairness, this woman can be regarded as a beautiful girl, but there is still a big gap with the top beauties, and she later heard that this girl from a private family has not read any books...
Jiang Si's eyes moved to Ji Chongyi's face again, and seeing the real pain and anxiety on his face, she had to admit that she lost to true love.
"Yi Lang, you, go back to the house, it's already very late, it will be troublesome if you are found." The woman lowered her head, her voice choked.
Ji Chongyi stretched out his hand to support the woman's shoulders, and said excitedly: "I'm not going. Qiao Niang, don't you know that I'm getting married soon? The family is strict with me, I'm afraid I won't see you again before I get married. …”
Jiang Si's eyes suddenly turned cold.
It turns out that Ji Chongyi's sweetheart is called Qiao Niang.
No wonder Ah Qiao came in to serve her on the second day after they got married, and when she heard her call "A Qiao", Ji Chongyi's eyes were like a knife, and then he walked away, even late for tea.
Mrs. Anguo, that is, her mother-in-law naturally wouldn't blame her son, but she thought it was because she didn't know the etiquette, and it was very difficult for her to give up when serving tea.
Qiao Niang smiled sadly: "What if you don't go now? Yi Lang, you always have to go home, what's the difference between one hour and one hour later? As for the future... Since you are married, treat your wife well. , forget me, I, I'll forget you too—"
Ji Chongyi suddenly covered Qiao Niang's mouth and raised his voice: "I don't allow it!"
"Yi Lang—" Qiao Niang turned her face away, tears streaming down her face.
Jiang Si looked at it coldly and began to get nervous.
Looking at this situation, the two are about to die for love, right
Hope everything goes well next time...
"Qiao Niang, why don't we elope!" Ji Chongyi was in high spirits, he held Qiao Niang's hand and walked out.
Qiao Niang struggled and shook her head: "Yi Lang, calm down, elopement will definitely not work—"
Ji Chongyi turned around suddenly, lowered his head and covered the other's mouth with his lips.
Aman covered his mouth and took a breath of cold air, pulling Jiang Si's sleeves furiously.
Jiang Xi was indifferent, thinking about the actions to take after the two died in love.
The two kissed to the emotional place, and there was no more speaking except for the more rapid breathing, and they stepped back step by step, followed by a loud thud.
Jiang seemed to be stunned.
Huh? This is not the same as what was said!
