Golden Fragrance had just taken a bath and was about to open the box to wipe away the dust when the door was slammed open by someone. A gust of cold wind blew into the room, dispersing the warm spring air.
Golden Fragrance stared at the incoming person, seeing that it was Jin Xiaotao, she was not angry, her charming eyes turned, and walked over to pick up the box: "What happened, look at how you ran, your face is already pale white."
Jin Xiaotao caught her breath: "Little Aunt, Jin Xiaofeng is gone."
"What do you mean?" Golden Fragrance was still not in a hurry. "Such a big live person, how could I not see him?"
Jin Xiaotao frowned: "He really disappeared. According to the Attendant who brought the food, when he pushed open the door early in the morning, no one could be seen. He searched all over the tower ..."
"Can't find it?" Golden Fragrance asked.
Jin Xiaolou nodded her head: "I couldn't find it."
"Aunt, where do you think she will run off to?" The little bird, who had just been caged, did not have enough fun before she burst open the door and flew away, feeling both regret and unwillingness.
Jin Xiaotao was slightly worried, if she was outside, no matter what, she would become a disaster.
Golden Fragrance shook her head. "How would I know where she went? But she was a broken flower after all. I won't be able to produce any splashes in my life. Your previous bad luck should be gone .."
Before he could finish his sentence, there was a loud bang as another person barged in.
Golden Fragrance frowned as she stared at the maid who was about to barge in: "What is going on? There are no rules and no rules."
Little Maid's face was pale: Jin Xiaofeng is dead.
"What!" Golden Fragrance and Jin Xiaotao said in unison as they both stood up.
By the time they reached the courtyard, it was surrounded by a crowd of people.
Meng Guangmei and her wife had heard the sound of wind and stood in front of them. Using a small handkerchief to cover their noses, they ordered someone to carry the female corpse that was just brought up from the well out.
"What are you all doing here, don't have enough work to do?" Meng Guangmei turned around, saw that there were so many people behind him, and shouted out repeatedly.
The servant Attendant s behind were shocked and quickly ran in all directions, dispersing in an instant.
Only Golden Fragrance and Jin Xiaotao were still standing on the spot.
Jin Xiaotao took two steps forward, and saw the man with the straw mat on the ground revealing a piece of clothes. It was indeed the clothes that Jin Xiaofeng was wearing these past few days.
It looked similar in length.
Who would have thought that Jin Xiaofeng would actually jump out of the tower and commit suicide?
Jin Xiaotao hurriedly fished out the handkerchief, while wiping away her tears, she said to Meng Guangmei: "Mother, this is my blood relative's sister, I originally planned to properly put her in the room, but somehow, I ended up in the well. I will be in charge of the aftermath of this, I absolutely do not dare to trouble Mother."
"What? You want to be the Lord of the Residence of He?" Meng Guangmei raised her head, and without even looking at Jin Xiaotao, he continued, "Let's not talk about your concubine, even if you're the principal wife that you married in a palanquin, He Guangkun is still my son.
Jin Xiaotao was shocked, afraid that Meng Guangmei would find out that she did not properly settle Jin Xiaofeng down, and instead had her be humiliated inside the tower. Her heart was thumping hard, she wanted to find a reason to bury Jin Xiaofeng, and settle this matter quickly.
Who would have thought that Meng Guangmei would go along with her plans. Waving her hand, she spoke to the people beside her: "This person died in peace without knowing the reason. She has truly met with bad luck, quickly pull him out and bury him."
The hollyhocks and hibiscus hurriedly pulled their mats and left.
This time, Jin Xiaotao was actually relieved. She let out a long breath, and pretended to be wronged and didn't dare to say a word.
Seeing that the straw mat was dragged far away, Meng Guangmei finally took down the pink handkerchief from her mouth and nose, then turned and left.
Today, she had informed Justice in advance and the two of them were going to eat at Mountain Note together.
After returning to the Fragrant Snow Pavilion and changing into a new set of clothes, he called for the maidservants outside the door and whispered a few words into their ears. Only then did he slowly walk out the door.
Aunt Wan heard the news when she was putting on makeup, the servant girls beside her heard it from the Little Maid that followed beside the Madam.
They said that Jin Xiaofeng was already dead, and jumped to the well in the inner courtyard that never saw the light of day.
Aunt Wan immediately collapsed on the stool, shaking her body to the point of scaring the maidservants nearby. She almost ran to call for a doctor, but was stopped just as she was about to leave.
Today, she was planning to go to the silk farm to make winter clothes, but after drinking two sips of hot tea to warm her mind, she immediately ordered them to listen to the show.
She was a person with a weak heart. If she had something to do, she would have to confide in someone close to her in order to dispel the depression in her heart.
Normally, he would confide in Brother Zong about small matters that he was unhappy about, let alone such a big matter as this one.
If she did not find someone to talk about this matter with, it would be like a huge rock pressing down on Ah Wan's chest, causing her to be unable to breath.
Just as he went to sit in the theatre garden, Attendant who was serving tea walked past him with a copper pot in his hand. Ah Wan picked up a piece of silver and stuffed it into Attendant's hands.
Firstly, he didn't have as many opportunities to come out, and secondly, there might not even be a single meeting in ten days or half a month. Secondly, there were many people outside, so it was not as convenient as meeting Brother Zong in the manor.
Thus, it was better for them to meet each other in the manor every seven days.
With Ah Wan suddenly looking for him, without needing to think, brother Zong knew that something big must have happened.
When they heard that the girl who had been lightheaded in the tower had jumped into the well, they stared at each other in horror and regret.
They weren't good people, but they weren't bad either. Having to live to kill someone was enough to make them feel guilty and guilty for a while.
On the other side of the Mountain Note, He Zhengyi thought that they had arrived and directly went to the second floor to eat. Who would have known that Jin Xiaolou would let the two of them line up outside.
Jin Xiaolou's move was indeed powerful. Not only did she help Meng Guangmei, she also made everyone around that passed by the Soundwater Street to understand what she was trying to do. Even the old Prefecture Overseer had to obediently line up to eat here.
In an instant, the reputation of his Mountain Note grew even more resounding.
Beside the line, there was still a small empty space surrounded by tape.
On the empty ground, Gui Qi was acting out a good show with Jin Xiaolou while disguised as a man.
Zhou Shuli held up a signboard with the words fake mountain written on it. In front of the fake mountain, Kuang Ruyue was pretending to be Meng Guangmei as she listened to the movements behind the fake mountain.
Lv Yun walked up and said to the people waiting outside: "Today's show is called 'Justice of the Justice, Snow', our boss will personally stage it, I hope everyone will watch carefully."
He was no fool for righteousness. Ben had already started being suspicious when he told him to queue up, and now he fully understood that this scene was being acted out for his benefit.
But, why did Jin Xiaolou do all this, was still a mystery.
After watching for a while, it was only after the scene in the garden had passed that the scene became a tower and justice became clear.
His expression turned ugly on the spot. They all said that the family was untouchable, and that the despicable incident in He Residence had been made into a show for everyone to see. How could they tolerate that?
Just as she was about to flare up, she heard Jin Xiaolou ingeniously change the way everyone was addressed inside. Everyone was happy to see, but no one knew that this matter happened in front of the Prefecture Lord.
Thinking about the scene in the flower garden, Kuang Ruyue muttered to herself as she thought about the righteousness and how she understood the original situation clearly.
However, he only believed thirty percent in his heart, but his brows knit even tighter.
Just as she lost her patience and was about to leave, Lv Yun came over immediately and invited Old Master He and his wife to the second floor.
At the table, which was filled with green clouds, Meng Guangmei did not mention anything about the show she had just watched. She only chatted with Justice about trivial matters, and after the meal was over, Meng Guangmei pulled Justice along to stroll around the calligraphy and painting shop. It wasn't until dusk fell that Meng Guangmei stretched her waist and sighed to the point that it was time to return.
He didn't know what justice was up to until he sat in a sedan chair that was supposed to return to his residence and walked to the entrance of a small alley on East Sun Street when Meng Guangmei suddenly said, "Stop."
Saying that, he opened the curtain of the carriage.
Since he didn't pass by East Sun Street, he naturally knew about justice. His face darkened, and he couldn't hold it in any longer, immediately drinking: "What the hell have you been up to all day? Watching a show and shopping. Didn't I punish you enough yesterday? I'll give you time to sort these moths out! "
"Didn't Jin Xiaolou act out for you just now?" Being scolded in such a righteous manner, Meng Guangmei's expression did not change in the slightest.
"Honourable Zhao Xue?" And justice angered him even more.
"That's right. You are a dignified county lord. Listening to slanderous words and blaming me, I naturally have to cry out in injustice." After Meng Guangmei finished speaking, a thin man dressed in black turned around the corner, and she immediately said, "Let's watch, the show is about to begin."
