Chapter 271: Secret Chat in the Deep Forest
After reading it, Xiao Jingyu folded the paper again and handed it to a secret guard beside him, "You quietly give this paper to Qingyi and Lanyi and the others, please have a look at it, little princess."
"Yes!" The secret guard took it and put it away, then turned around and disappeared into the forest under the cover of night.
Not long after, Qingyi handed the paper to Leng Rongyue.
Leng Rongyue read the contents on the paper and thought that it was just the secret guards from the Anguo Mansion passing on news from the capital to them.
After reading it, Leng Rongyue handed it to the one in blue. The one in purple and the one in green also came over and read what was written on the paper in the firelight.
After watching it, several people laughed.
Looking at Luo Yun and Shuanzi's father who were busy by the creek, the few of them talked in low voices.
“Even though I wasn’t there, I can still imagine what a mess the Qinxing Marquis’s mansion was like!
The gate of Marquis Qinxing's mansion was blocked and in such a mess!
Yin Shi even went back to her parents' home in a rage...
Humph! Just relying on her family, would they do something like helping them in their time of need and provide them with financial support? Ha!" Zi Yi whispered, her lips almost curled up to the sky.
Lan Yi also chuckled and said, "It's a pity that we didn't see this excitement with our own eyes!"
"What's a pity? It's nothing more than dog biting dog." When Lan Yi said this, he suddenly covered his mouth with his hands and looked at Leng Rongyue with his big eyes blinking.
I thought to myself: I was a little too outspoken.
Even though Leng Xian was a worthless person, he was still the biological father of the little princess.
I called him a dog...
Leng Rongyue looked at Lan Yi and smiled slightly, "It's okay.
If it were you, would you consider someone who conspired with others to plot against you, to destroy you, or even to kill you as your father? "
After hearing this, Lan Yi shook his head vigorously.
"So, in my eyes, he is not a father at all.
He just wants to destroy me, kill me, and he might be the one who killed my mother!" The blue-clothed people nodded in understanding.
“I guess that Leng Xian is at his wits’ end and will definitely turn his attention to me.
Now that I am not in the capital, hasn't he already sent his servants to Banshan Manor to pick me up?
If the person who came couldn't pick up the person, he would definitely not be able to enter the capital today.
Leng Xian must be like an ant on a hot pot, enduring this night in anxiety!
As for tomorrow morning, he would definitely be shameless and go to the Mid-Levels Manor in person.
First, he wanted to avoid the shopkeepers and shop assistants who came to block his way and escape from that embarrassing place;
Moreover, he would try every possible means to see me and bring me back to the Marquis' Mansion.
He might... even cry and beg for my forgiveness, beg me to help him through his current predicament, beg me to take responsibility for all that they have swallowed up and taken away over the years.
Haha...what a wild idea!
Believe it or not, Leng Xian, in order to protect himself and to make me let him go, in the name of venting my anger, he would abandon Yin Shi;
If necessary, he can also abandon his mother and children!"
After hearing this, the people in blue were surprised, but after thinking about it, they finally nodded.
Leng Rongyue sneered, "Let them continue to jump up and down. I have things to do and I don't have time to deal with them right now.
If Leng Xian dares to come to Banshan Manor, his aunt and second aunt will deal with it, and Liang and the others will not get any benefit at all!
Ignore them and continue doing our business.”
The men in blue nodded.
As they were talking in whispers, Shuanzi's father and Luo Yun, who had finished processing the herbs, came over to the fire carrying backpacks.
Several people changed the topic and talked about other things.
"Uncle Luo, Uncle Zhao, please sit down and have a rest!" Qing Yi called out.
Luo Yun and Shuanzi's father nodded and sat down by the campfire.
“You girls are pretty amazing!
We have been collecting herbs and walking in the mountains for many years, and we are used to walking on the mountain roads. It is nothing.
I didn't expect that you girls were not any slower than us along the way!
Especially Miss Rong, she doesn't look like a spoiled young lady from a rich family at all!" Shuanzi's father said with a smile.
"Uncle Zhao, you're joking! I'm not some delicate lady!
I have been following my family around to do business and collect medicinal herbs all year round. I also often go into the mountains with the herbal farmers to check the quality of the herbs.
Therefore, walking on mountain roads and entering forests is a common occurrence.
Slowly, you will learn it! "
"Is that so?" Shuanzi's father nodded with a smile, "I thought that girls from wealthy families were all spoiled in their boudoirs and never left the house.
For someone like Miss Rong, being able to go out and run a business is already very rare.
Unexpectedly, Miss Rong often walks on mountain roads and goes into the forests. In the mountains, she is as agile and nimble as us herbalists.
This really makes me admire you!"
Leng Rongyue smiled and said, "Just being able to walk a few steps on a mountain road, what's there to admire?
Uncle Zhao and Uncle Luo go into the mountains to collect herbs for a living, and so do we.
Uncle Zhao and Uncle Luo, on the other hand, clearly knew medicinal herbs and understood medical skills.
Wouldn't it be more comfortable and relaxing to be a doctor in the capital, in a county town halfway up the mountain, or in some other town, where you are protected from the wind and the sun?
We are well aware of the dangers and hardships of going into the mountains to collect herbs.
However, we only go into the mountains when we need to, and a few days of hardship will pass if we endure it.
Like Uncle Zhao and Uncle Luo, you have to go into the mountains to collect herbs every day in Dashi Village under the sun and rain, and you have to risk encountering poisonous insects and ferocious beasts. To be honest, we are afraid just thinking about the hardship!"
