1079, standing

"Madam Zeng!" Not long after walking out of Xiaocuiyuan, Xu Shu met Madam Zeng and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

Madam Zeng smiled and replied, "Miss Zheng Jiu, I haven't seen you some days!"

"The family is full of trivial matters and I haven't had any time!"

"The concubine is muttering in the old slave's ears every day, and she has prepared a generous gift to Miss Zheng Jiu!"

Madam Zeng glanced at Xu Shu and did not see the generous gifts prepared by Concubine Zhen. She couldn't help but feel a little confused. Could it be that Concubine Zhen did not give it to? Or Concubine Zhen gave it to him, and Xu Shu didn't accept it?

Xu Shu answered Madam Zeng’s doubts in time, “The concubine is in love with her and gave me a very precious white jade lotus jade pendant. I am really ashamed of it, for fear that it will be hurt by accident and let the concubine down, so I let the maid keep it and treasure it carefully!”

Madam Zeng smiled and nodded in praise, "Miss Zheng Jiu made it very appropriate. It is better to treasure such unusual things!"

Unusual...

Madam Zeng’s words seem to have a different meaning!

Xu Shu couldn't help but ask tentatively, "Is this jade pendant any origin?" For example, as the pair of bracelets that Empress Dowager Fu insisted on giving her at Zhou Jin's welcome banquet.

Madam Zeng shook her head, "I don't know this old slave, but when the concubine said she wanted to give something to Miss Zheng Jiu, she immediately took out the white jade lotus porch. The old slave mentioned that Miss Zheng Jiu's skin was as white as snow. If it was more appropriate to give the phoenix-patterned jade pendant with red jade, the concubine insisted on this. I think the concubine's persistence made her sense!"

Originally, Concubine Zhen was a person who said that Feng was just rain. Concubine Zhen wanted to give her something, but Xu Shu didn't think too much, but refused, so she accepted it. Now, after hearing what Madam Zeng said, Xu Shu felt a little strange. Concubine Zhen wanted to give her something for no reason? And it must be that lotus porch?

"Maybe it was the concubine who was on a whim!" Xu Shu smiled softly. No matter what Concubine Zhen's purpose was, she had already collected the goods and had no reason to return them to others. She could only comfort herself in this way.

"This is possible!" Madam Zeng smiled, "Miss Zheng Jiu is going back?"

Xu Shu nodded, "There are still some things to be dealt with at home, so I won't leave much left!"

"If Miss Zheng Jiu is not in a hurry, you might as well take a detour!" Madam Zeng said suddenly.

Thinking about the direction that Madam Zeng had just arrived, Xu Shu understood Madam Zeng's hint, "Is there something wrong ahead?"

Madam Zeng said with a little shame, "The Empress assigned the old slave to serve in the palace, but the old slave felt ashamed of the Empress's trust. It was really difficult to comprehend the many female relatives. They had constant disputes every day, and the old slave could do nothing but persuade them! Just now Miss Jiang Si and Miss Liu started arguing again. The old slave went to hear it. It was not a big deal, so they let them go. The old slave was so lazy that it was a joke to say it!"

"Thank you, nanny! The situation in the Pingning Prince's Mansion is special. The female family members are not determined, and it is difficult for nanny to control it. As long as there is no big trouble, it will be fine. The people around you will do whatever they want!"

"It's all caused by status!"

"Miss……"

"Miss……"

"Miss!"

On the way back, Yuzhu called out countless times, and Xu Shu finally responded, "Is there anything wrong?"

"I'm fine! But the lady is in trouble!" Yuzhu looked at Xu Shu with a serious look on her face, "I've called the lady so many times before I heard it, which means that the lady is in trouble!"

Xu Shu glanced at Yuzhu lightly, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!"

"If the lady is really too lazy to care about me, why did the lady help me get back when I was lying with Miss Gao?"

"I'm considering your face and don't want you to be embarrassed outside!"

"No! It's because the lady wants to leave, because the lady doesn't want to stay there anymore!" Yuzhu said seriously, "I have encountered too many such situations in Chunmanlou! Some girls are lucky, and some are willing to redeem them, but those who redeem them are not necessarily good people. Some are gambling ghosts, some are playboys, and some are wives and concubines. But even the most unbearable people, as long as they can redeem the girls, the girls will be willing to follow them, even if they know that those people have bad deeds, because those girls don't want to stay in Chunmanlou anymore. They have stayed there enough. They don't want to stay there for a moment. As long as they have the chance, they will choose to leave without hesitation!"

Xu Shu smiled gently, "I didn't expect that Yuzhu, you are so knowledgeable. It seems that I underestimated you before!"

Yuzhu did not laugh, but instead bit her lips and whispered, "I have heard everything, I have heard everything... Yes! I have eavesdropped on your conversation with Miss Gao!" Looking at Xu Shu's surprised expression, Yuzhu continued, "You don't have to ask anymore. It was Luhe who told me. Luhe told me everything. I'm open and honest, all for the sake of the lady. If you want to blame me, blame me!"

After a long time, Xu Shu sighed, "Silly girl, how could I blame you? Now, besides mother, you are the ones who treat me the best. If I blame you, I would be too ungrateful!"

"Miss, Miss Gao is not worth it... She is not worth it. Miss. You are so kind to her. She is using you! She wants a name, but she urges you to stand up for her! I can see that she and her maid were having a quarrel on purpose just to attract you into their trap!"

"No matter whether the current Zhinan sister is worth it or not, the former Zhinan sister is worth it. Moreover, what Zhinan sister said is true. She suffered in Rouran and was also excluded in the palace. She just wanted to live a better life and use some means to neither hurt people nor harm people, nor anything wrong!"

"But those methods should not be used on you, Miss. You are so close to Miss Gao, what can she say directly? Why do you have to use your mind and means to achieve your goal?

"It is precisely because I am so close to Sister Zhinan that Sister Zhinan can't speak out even more! She is also afraid that the relationship between us will change from now on..."

"Didn't it change the flavor now?" Yuzhu took out the lotus porch and put it in front of Xu Shu. "Actually, the lady understands it in her heart, right? Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken it off after Miss Gao asked about the jade porch! In fact, Miss, you know everything in your heart, but you just don't want to admit it or believe that Miss Gao is no longer the fact that Miss Gao was the same as Miss Gao in the past!"

Xu Shu picked up the jade pendant and stroked the texture on it. The texture was bright and moist. It was really a good jade pendant. No wonder Gao Zhinan noticed it, but Gao Zhinan noticed that this jade pendant was not just for this reason!
