276. Chapter 276: Setting a Trap Again

While speaking, Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but glance at Su Wanwan's slightly protruding belly.

She was familiar with this plot: the little wife fleeing from the Prince's mansion while pregnant, the scumbag husband feeling deep regret after the pain, then the crematorium of chasing his wife, and finally a happy ending...

Who would have thought that Su Wanwan would curl her lip indifferently and say: "He wasn't bad to me; it's just that I didn't keep to the woman's way and had an affair with another man."

Jiang Xiaoxiao: "..."

Alright.

She had underestimated this Princess Consort Duan.

"Then who is the man you had an affair with?" she asked, feigning innocence.

"Do you know the Shen family of the Dingguo Public Mansion?" Speaking of this, Su Wanwan suddenly became spirited, "It's that General Shen who fought for the world with our Dayin founding emperor!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao suddenly had a bad premonition: "... It wouldn't be one of the young masters of the Shen family, would it?"

"It's that Second Young Master of the Shen family!" Su Wanwan nodded, her tone cheerful, "His name is Shen Que."

Jiang Xiaoxiao: "..."

The sudden silence in the carriage made Jiang Wei outside pause, and she looked inside hesitantly.

"What's wrong, Little Lady Jiang?" Mr. Bai beside her noticed Jiang Wei's strangeness and couldn't help but look into the carriage.

"Nothing." Jiang Wei retracted her gaze indifferently and continued on her way, "Let's go to the nearest medical hall."

"Alright." Mr. Bai responded, but his gaze followed the carriage to the few maids and matrons not far away.

Ever since those Duan Wang personal soldiers left, the expressions on the faces of those little maids were different; there was reluctance, shock, and even joy...

Especially Yu Ying'er, whom Jiang Wei had specifically told him to keep a close eye on; her face was full of joy that was hard to suppress.

Duan Wang's personal soldiers abandoned them and left; was she that happy?

Yu Ying'er was naturally happy.

Her guess was indeed correct!

The Prince had indeed abandoned this Su family concubine's daughter who threw tantrums at any time and place.

Now, Su Wanwan was completely abandoned; even if she died on some street in Xuzhou, no one would care.

Yu Ying'er's fingers trembled slightly with excitement. She took several deep breaths before she could barely suppress this excited mood.

Soon the carriage arrived in front of a medical hall.

This was specifically chosen by Mr. Bai. This medical hall was located in a remote area and usually had few people coming, which was just right for them to act out their play.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Jiang Wei bent down and got into the carriage as usual, and after a while, she carried the "comatose" Su Wanwan out and entered the medical hall.

Yu'er and the other maids saw this and hurriedly wanted to follow, but were blocked outside by Mr. Bai.

"I'm sorry, the medical hall is a place for patients to seek medical advice. You all are noisy and many; it's better to wait outside."

"But my Lady..." Yu'er still wanted to plead a few words, but seeing that Mr. Bai didn't go in either and was blocking them outside, she had nothing to say.

Inside the medical hall.

It was unknown whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, but the doctor who was seeing patients was not there, and only two apprentices were watching the shop.

Jiang Wei spent two taels of silver to get a room for patients to rest, and then carried Su Wanwan in.

With enough silver given, Jiang Xiaoxiao greeted the two apprentices, saying that the maids and matrons must absolutely not be allowed in. The two apprentices naturally nodded and agreed without stopping.

Jiang Xiaoxiao entered the room.

As soon as Su Wanwan saw her enter, she hurriedly climbed up from the bed and said with a smile: "Xiaoxiao, I acted like it, right? They didn't discover anything, did they?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded, then sighed and said: "But... Wan Wan Jie, what will you do later? You can't keep hiding it from those little maids forever, right?"

They still had important things to do in Xuzhou; they couldn't keep acting with Su Wanwan forever.

"I..." Su Wanwan frowned; she didn't know what to do later either...

Originally, according to the original plan, she was going to personally send the group of bandits to the Yamen, let them say who the mastermind was, and then force a confession from Yu Ying'er to force her to tell the truth.

But now that the group of bandits had been taken away by the Prefect, the original plan was disrupted, and she didn't know how to punish Yu Ying'er...

Yu Ying'er was a maid of the Su family, a person of the Su family.

She had always considered herself as such.

She was also bold enough to be so daring to her because she relied on being a servant born into the Su family.

If she executed Yu Ying'er now without evidence, the Su family, who already didn't like her, would probably be even more disgusted with her...

Su Wanwan lowered her head in disappointment.

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at Su Wanwan's appearance; it wasn't a solution to keep delaying like this...

She wrinkled her little face, thought for a moment, and tentatively said: "Wan Wan Jie, how about we act out another play?"

Time gradually reached the afternoon.

Yu'er and the other maids had been waiting outside the medical hall for several hours, from being anxious at the beginning to being exhausted now.

They didn't have much energy left to think.

Jiang Xiaoxiao then walked out slowly, a smile appearing on her face: "Sister Yu'er, don't worry, your Lady is fine now."

Yu'er, who had been wilted, became spirited upon hearing this: "Really! I'll go in and take a look."

Jiang Xiaoxiao hurriedly blocked her: "Your Lady is sleeping inside. It's rare for her to be out of danger, and she is resting. You shouldn't go in and disturb her."

"Alright, alright, we won't disturb her." Yu'er nodded repeatedly. Now she trusted everything Jiang Xiaoxiao said completely, "As long as the Lady is fine, I'll do whatever you want."

Jiang Xiaoxiao deliberately looked at the sky and said: "Sister Yu'er, I think you are tired too. How about finding an inn to rest first, and then come to visit your Lady tomorrow morning, how about that?"

"Alright." Yu'er nodded repeatedly.

Jiang Xiaoxiao pointed to an inn not far away: "Sister Yu'er, I think that inn is quite good. I'll go over with you; my mother and I will also stay there tonight."

Yu'er was stunned: "Eh, aren't you going to stay here to look after my Lady?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao shook her head and said: "This medical hall only has one room for patients to rest. My mother and I still need to find a place to stay at night. Don't worry, your Lady has someone to take care of her in the medical hall."

"But..." Yu'er was still hesitant.

But before she could speak, she was interrupted by Yu Ying'er beside her: "Yu'er, how can you be so ignorant? Xiaoxiao has already helped us a lot; how can you still trouble her? Let's find an inn to rest first, eat something, and it won't be too late to visit the Lady at night."

Saying this, she dragged Yu'er toward the inn not far away.

Yu'er hadn't rested much in this day and night, and her body was really tired, so she was dragged away by Yu Ying'er just like that.

The other maids and matrons saw this and followed one after another.

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at Yu Ying'er's footsteps that couldn't hide her excitement, and her lips curled up slightly.

The opportunity was right in front of her; this girl's fox tail would always be unable to help but show itself. (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 277 =====
