This is the first time in a month that these people have spoken to me respectfully. Wu Sheyue asked with a smile: "Oh~ Since it's not a stepping stone, what are you doing behind my room?"
"I, we..." The two men raised their heads and looked at each other in confusion, "We are..."
Wu Sheyue covered her mouth and smiled and said: "Look at you, you look like a young couple asking for marriage."
Zhao Wen looked at Wu Sheyue's cold eyes, as if he was inspired. His eyes lit up and he immediately came up with the reason: "Yes, yes, slave, slave... slave and Chenghai... yes, they are in love." Joy… "
"Ah?" Yu Chenghai exclaimed.
Zhao Wen covered Yu Chenghai's mouth and said: "So, I often go to the room to... chat..." He originally wanted to have a private meeting, but he was too disgusted to say it, so he changed it to chatting.
In fact, Zhao Wen also told himself that he felt guilty, but compared to the severe punishment of stealing the master's property and secretly breaking into the young lady's boudoir, he would rather feel disgusted with himself.
Yu Chenghai was completely dumbfounded, and the maids and nuns also had dull faces. They couldn't believe their ears.
Wu Sheyue nodded in sudden realization, "Oh~ that's right~"
This thing is simply too exciting, especially for girls like them who have not left the government, it is simply, simply shameful. The faces of the three maids were already red, and even the very old Aunt Chang was very embarrassed.
But their third lady didn't look surprised, and even asked with concern: "It's really hard work, and you have to avoid people's eyes. Do you want me to help you? Or I'll go talk to my mother. I made an exception and made it possible for you—"
Yu Chenghai was so scared that he was sweating profusely and quickly waved his hand to refuse, "No, no, no, no need... I don't want a man..."
Zhao Wen immediately came to Yu Chenghai's rescue, "Just, that's it, no need... Thank you, Miss Third, for your kindness. Even if I have a man in my heart, I still want to continue the family lineage, and I will stop thinking about it in the future."
Wu Sheyue was finally satisfied, "If this is the case, then you are not thieves either. Although cheating is not a good thing, it is not punishable."
"Yes, thank you, Miss, for your kindness..."
Wu Sheyue said in a faint tone: "It seems that this thief is really powerful. He actually escaped all of your eyes and ran in. He stole something and ran out again. Is that what happened?"
When she said this, Grandma Chang and the two young men quickly responded. It is a lighter charge for a group of people to be charged with dereliction of duty. This kind of master-servant scene is far different from the one at the beginning. There was a smile on Ning'er's lips. The young lady still had a way to cure these people.
"But who has such good skills and can actually avoid the eyes of you who are diligent, diligent, diligent, diligent?" Wu Sheyue's words "diligently, diligently" were emphasized in a very dangerous tone.
"This... must, must have been planned by some kid for a long time..." Zhao Wen said, clenching his fists hard. The idea of gloating about his misfortune arose in his mind. It didn't matter if he was disgusted. Wu Sheyue's room was broken into anyway, and she was the one who had dishonored her reputation.
But Wu Sheyue seemed to know this. She waved her hand, looked at it for a while, turned around, went into the house, took out the bird feathers, handed them to Wu Sheyue and said, "Miss."
Those slaves were very surprised to see Bird Feather, but Wu Sheyue smiled and said, "Hey, it seems that the bird flew in and took away the glowing thing."
"..." Zhao Wen's face turned red and he almost stood up to question. It’s just a bird! He actually interrogated them for a long time as if they were thieves. It was simply bullying! Even during the interrogation, he was told that he was a thief, forcing him to admit that he was addicted to sleeve-cutting! How can he stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion from now on? Wouldn’t all the boys have to avoid him
"Since it's a bird, forget it. It just took some small jewelry. You... don't need to look for thieves." Wu Sheyue smiled calmly. Her words also cut off the way for these people to go out and talk nonsense.
"Yes." Grandma Chang was the first to respond.
"Okay, you can do whatever you have to do from now on. You know when and where you should show up. As long as you all do your duty, I will naturally not accuse you wrongly. Let's get over it. If there is another incident in my yard, If you bring in something that you shouldn't, don't tell me that you won't be able to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion to make a living in the future."
"Yes, yes, I understand." These individuals responded and retreated one after another.
Zhao Wen gritted his teeth and stared at Wu Sheyue secretly. Yu Chenghai pulled his sleeve and gave him an impulsive look. Zhao Wen sighed heavily and walked away.

Wu Sheyue got up and went back to the house. The bed was still clean, but she still lifted a layer before sitting down. Who knows what that person did.
Ning'er followed in. She hesitated whether to clean up the house.
"Miss, we still haven't found the thief. Do you really not want to talk to the old lady?"
"What are you talking about? The bird came in and flew around my house?" Wu Sheyue leaned on the bed, closed her eyes and said: "Clean up the house, change everything that can be changed, and let Sisi Xiaoling take a good care of herself. No need to go to the old lady about this, I almost know who it is."
What's the point of catching a little guy? What she wants to catch is a big fish. Once you pick it up in the net bag, those little shrimps will not be missed.
"Well..." Ning'er scratched her head and started to tidy up. In fact, she almost knew that when she just said that her lady wanted to do stone carving, many tools were missing. It must be the masters who were jealous of her lady.
Since the young lady plans to solve the problem on her own, she shouldn't say too much. Anyway, the young lady always has an idea.
Wu Sheyue closed her eyes and listened to the sound of Ning'er walking around the room, thinking secretly in her heart. The people who come to her yard should be divided into many groups. The one who came in this time should be an ordinary person with better skills. It is not difficult to hide it from those loose minions. It should be those few women who are looking for bad luck for her. , not enough evidence.
But the person who spied on her before and the person who sent the note... were all experts, but I don't know if these two are the same.
Maybe those people were still waiting for her to make a fuss, but they were probably all disappointed.
—
Wu Sheyue lost her gifts and tools, and nothing happened to her after that - there was probably nothing more that could cause trouble.
From then until the day of the Hundred Flowers Banquet, everything was fine.
Early on the day of the Hundred Flowers Feast.
The ladies and aunts got up in high spirits before dawn. Several maids gathered around a young lady to help her wash and dress up, fussing about in a hurry. The entire Prime Minister's Mansion was busy because of the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
Three carriages were ready outside the gate.
The time was almost up, and Wu Jinghua was the first to come out. She brought two maids with her, and Qingxing held a gift box for her. Aunt Meng even walked her to the door personally, telling her to behave well all the way.
Wu Jinghua was dazzling, and the already beautiful girl was even more eye-catching now. Her entire posture was calmer and more solemn than usual, and she seemed to have learned a lot during the lockdown. He only responded softly to the nagging of his aunt beside him.
Wu Jinghua and others didn't wait long when they stood beside the carriage. Wu Lixiang and Aunt Liu also came out soon. Wu Lixiang also brought two maids this time. She was dressed in brocade and gorgeous clothes, and her beauty was as beautiful as Wu Jinghua's. The masks worn by these two people were all made with the help of Jiang Qingxue.
Wu Lixiang's face was heavily made up, and she looked like a woman in her twenties or thirties. That makeup is not suitable for a young girl like her at all. It can be seen that the thick powder is to cover the remaining rash on her face.
It's really strange. Peach blossom moss should heal quickly, but when it comes to her, it's not only bad, but it's getting worse. In order to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, she had to cover up her life.
When Wu Jinghua saw Wu Lixiang's exaggerated face, he finally couldn't help but sneer. He covered his mouth with a handkerchief while mocking, which made Aunt Liu roll her eyes.
Aunt Liu was too lazy to pay attention to her. She was just a crazy girl who made mistakes every day and was grounded every day. She turned around and whispered to her daughter: "Remember, don't scratch her."
"I know... but it's too uncomfortable." Wu Lixiang frowned, feeling like there were bugs crawling on her face. She couldn't help it anymore and wanted to pinch her face with her hands. If you can't scratch it, pinching it should be fine, right
"Just be patient and think about it, it's such a big deal! Whether you can marry a noble man or not depends on this time." Aunt Liu was anxious, "The rest of our lives will be stuck on who you marry. "
Wu Lixiang gritted her teeth and said, "Okay then! I'll bear it!"
The two groups were talking to each other and waiting. Seeing that the time had come, Wu Liuyun came out slowly. The moment she stepped out of the door, everyone's eyes lit up. Even Wu Jinghua and Wu Lixiang could not control their envy.
Wu Liuyun did not dress too tacky and gaudy. She wore a light yellow dress and red accessories that complemented each other perfectly. She looked as if she had stepped out of a painting. The indifferent expression on her face made her look even more noble, as if she were an immortal who could not eat the fireworks of the world.
Jiang Qingxue, who was walking beside her, could hardly steal her spotlight.
Aunt Meng and Aunt Liu each pulled their daughters aside and Wu Liuyun and Jiang Qingxue walked past them.
Aunt Meng lowered her head unwillingly, but Aunt Liu couldn't help but stare at Wu Liuyun.
Look, the difference between people is so big. If she was born into a family with Jiang Taigong's status, then she should be the head wife. Why should her daughter be so groveling... God is really unfair.
Wu Liuyun glanced sideways as he passed them. When he saw Wu Lixiang's outfit, he frowned, "How is the fourth sister's face?"
Hearing this, Jiang Qingxue also stopped and looked over.
Just as Wu Lixiang was about to complain about the rash on her face that refused to go away, Aunt Liu hurriedly jumped in and said, "Okay, okay! At least there are one or two who haven't gone down yet, so it won't hurt to cover them up!" (Unfinished) to be continued)
