Chapter 151: The Maid Deserves to Die

Jiang Youyi was walking toward the county Ya Men prison with her maid, Danju.

Danju held a half-person-high epiphyllum in both hands, panting as she followed behind. "Miss, that kind of place like a prison is dirty and chaotic; it's not where a young lady of your status should go. If the master finds out, he will definitely peel off my skin."

"How would Dad know if you don't tell him?" Jiang Youyi turned her head and rolled her eyes at the maid. "Mingzhu grew up with me, and we are like sisters. Now that she has fallen into trouble and is sick, I should naturally go see her."

Danju muttered, "But there are cockroaches in the prison."

She heard that Miss Mingzhu was scared sick by cockroaches, and she was quite ill.

Jiang Youyi stopped her steps.

She wasn't afraid of cockroaches, but she was afraid of rats.

After thinking about it, she pulled a gold hairpin from her head and held it in her hand. If she really encountered a rat, she would stab it to death with the hairpin!

While speaking, they had reached the prison gate.

Jiang Youyi showed the prison visit consent form. With her financial resources and relationship with the Du residence, it was easy to get this thing.

The jailer checked it, confirmed there was no problem, and let them pass, calling a female jailer to lead the way.

Jiang Youyi stared nervously at the ground, holding the hairpin in her hand tightly, fearing that a rat would suddenly pop out.

So much so that she didn't notice the few men walking toward her and almost bumped into them.

"What are you doing? Walking without eyes?" A cold horizontal blade was placed on Jiang Youyi's neck.

Danju screamed in fright, and the flowerpot almost fell and hit her toes.

Jiang Youyi was also startled by this sudden change and hurriedly looked up.

Standing in front of her were a few men in constable uniforms. The leader was not very old, about twenty years old, and looked very handsome, but there was no expression on his face, and his joy or anger could not be seen.

And the one who put the blade on her neck was a sturdy man with a full beard.

Oh, a constable.

As long as it wasn't a rat, she wasn't afraid.

Jiang Youyi's heart settled down instantly. She glanced at the blade and sneered, "I don't have eyes? I think it's you who don't have eyes, right? Do you know who I am?"

Wang Bujiu looked her up and down. "Looking at your arrogant look, what, has the princess arrived?"

Jiang Youyi: "..."

Danju hurriedly put down the flower, put her hands on her hips, and said angrily, "Hey, I'm warning you, let my miss go immediately, otherwise I'll make you look good!"

Yo ho, the tone is quite big.

Wang Bujiu really took back the blade and raised his eyebrows. "Tell me, whose family are you from? What are you doing here?"

"Then you listen carefully." Danju raised her chin. "My miss is the youngest daughter of the Qingyang Jiang family. Today, I am here to visit Miss Du Mingzhu."

Wang Bujiu and Jiang Li looked at each other.

The Qingyang Jiang family was the largest salt merchant in Wutou Xian and also the richest man in Wutou Xian, with vast wealth and crowds of servants.

Those who could be salt merchants naturally had people covering them from above.

It did have some background.

It was said that the Jiang family had a close relationship with the Du residence, so it was not strange for the Jiang family's daughter to visit Du Mingzhu.

Jiang Li was too lazy to make things difficult for a woman and waved his hand. "Let's go."

Several constables soon left the prison gate and went outside.

Danju spat at their backs. "What kind of thing, daring to scare our miss, watch out for your rice bowls!"

Jiang Youyi had a deep impression of the leader and asked the female jailer curiously, "Who is that person?"

He looked quite good.

The female jailer looked at her and replied coldly, "He is our county Ya Men's Constable Jiang."

Constable? Surname Jiang?

Jiang Youyi widened her eyes suddenly and hurriedly asked, "Then is he your Lord Du's son-in-law?"

"I'm not clear about this." The female jailer curled her lips. "Anyway, Lord Du has always called him son-in-law, but Constable Jiang has never responded."

Sure enough, it was that Jiang Li.

That slut Du Ruo, her husband clearly doesn't look bad, why is she so shameless, insisting on hooking up with Brother Xiao? It caused Brother Xiao to ignore her anymore.

Thinking of this, Jiang Youyi felt itchy with hatred.

No rush. In a few days, she would go to her father and act like a spoiled child, asking her father to find a way to clear the relationship and remove Jiang Li's position.

Just a mere constable, what's so great about it? As long as the silver is in place, isn't it just a matter of rolling if you want to roll? Heh.

Jiang Youyi puffed out her chest proudly and walked toward Du Mingzhu's cell with her head held high.

After taking the antidote pill given by Wen Shiyuan, Du Mingzhu finally saved her life.

However, although her life was saved, a terrifying scar was left on her body, from head to toe, pitted and bumpy, always making people think of a toad involuntarily.

And her personality became even more violent, throwing tantrums at every turn, and even her mother, Jiang Shi, couldn't appease her.

"Madam, Miss Jiang is here," the old woman said in a low voice.

Jiang Youyi? Jiang Shi was a bit surprised.

She handed the bowl in her hand to the old woman, instructed her daughter to drink the medicine obediently, and then got up and walked out.

Jiang Youyi bowed to Jiang Shi. "I should have come to visit Mingzhu sister earlier, but I have been busy, and I hope Madam will forgive me."

"You have a heart." Jiang Shi smiled. "I don't know how happy I am as an adult that Zhuer can have a good sister like you thinking of her."

Jiang Youyi looked inside and lowered her voice. "I heard Mingzhu sister is sick. How is she now? Is she better?"

Jiang Shi's face stiffened, and she sighed. "Just like that, there is no life-threatening danger for the time being."

As she said this, she reminded, "Later, no matter what you see, please don't make a fuss, lest Zhuer feel even more uncomfortable."

"Don't worry, Madam, I know."

The patient's complexion naturally couldn't look good, and Mingzhu sister had always paid the most attention to her appearance, so it was reasonable for her to feel unhappy.

Jiang Youyi was mentally prepared.

She turned back and called the maid. "Danju, bring the flower and come in with me."

Mingzhu sister liked flowers and plants the most, especially those rare and precious varieties. This was something she had spent several hundred taels of silver to get, and Mingzhu sister would definitely be happy when she saw it.

The master and servant entered the prison cell, and Jiang Youyi saw the girl leaning on the bed at a glance.

The girl's hair was scattered in front of her, and the bumps on her face were one after another, each the size of a copper coin, bulging like meat tumors.

Jiang Youyi was stunned, her mouth wide open, and she didn't dare to recognize her for a long time.

Is this really the beautiful Du Mingzhu from before??

Du Mingzhu's lowered eyes opened suddenly, and a cold and vicious gaze shot at her.

Jiang Youyi felt her scalp go numb instantly and subconsciously covered her mouth.

Her maid didn't have such good concentration and shook her hand in fright, and the flowerpot fell to the ground with a *bang*, shattering into several pieces.

The epiphyllum worth several hundred taels lost its support, and flowers and soil spilled all over the ground.

Jiang Shi hurriedly called the old woman to clean it up.

"So it's an epiphyllum." Du Mingzhu smiled faintly. "The beauty appears under the moon, the shadow is cold; the moonlight is faint, and it is difficult to see again. Although the epiphyllum only lasts for a moment, it is beautiful for a lifetime."

She shook her head. "It's a pity, it's broken after all, destroyed."

Jiang Youyi finally recovered from the shock and hurriedly made up for it. "It doesn't matter if it's broken. I'll send a few more pots tomorrow, and I guarantee they will be better than this!"

Danju also knew she had caused trouble and knelt down with a *thud*.

"I'm sorry, Miss, it's all the maid's fault for not holding it steady. The maid was wrong."

Jiang Youyi glared at her hatefully. "You useless idiot, you wasted my good intentions. Wait until we go back to see how I deal with you!"

Danju just kept kowtowing for mercy. "The maid deserves to die, the maid deserves to die..."

Du Mingzhu tilted her head. "Yi sister, didn't you hear? She said she deserves to die." ===== CHAPTER 152 =====
