Hearing Qi Shou’s reply, the emperor frowned and asked, “Is that all he asked?”
“Yes, I watched from the side the entire time. Earl Zhongyi only asked about Yuzhu.”
It was good that he didn’t take the opportunity to investigate the case back then. The emperor heaved a sigh of relief and waved him off.
When he came out of the palace, it was already time for him to get off work. Song Jingchen didn’t go to the Court of Judicial Review again but went straight home.
Unexpectedly, before he could step through the door, a disheveled person pounced on him.
Song Jingchen frowned and dodged.
South Wind, who had followed him in, also wanted to dodge, but he heard Shen Yijia roar, “Catch her.”
South Wind subconsciously reached out and grabbed it. He was immediately overwhelmed by the smoke.
Song Jingchen quickly pulled Shen Yijia back and asked, “Who is she?”
Shen Yijia paused and glanced at the person who was still struggling with
South Wind holding her wrist. She pursed her lips and said, “An Xiu’er.”
She had met An Xiu’er on Vermillion Bird Street after leaving Rui Manor.
At that time, she was even more miserable than she was now. She was not dressed properly and was not even wearing shoes. If not for the fact that the bag in her arms looked familiar, she would not have recognized it. It was the bag Auntie Tian had asked her to pass to An Xiu’er.
“I don’t know what she experienced, but she seems to have gone crazy. Mother said that she wanted to get water for her to take a shower, but she refused. I had no choice but to put a shirt on her.” Shen Yijia shrugged helplessly.
There was no sympathy. At most, she would sigh at the changes in the world.
Anyway, An Xiu’er had once coveted Song Jingchen.
Song Jingchen frowned and pulled Shen Yijia back a few steps. He asked in confusion, “You want to keep her?”
Shen Yijia shook her head without thinking. “Of course not.”
She did not think too much about it when she brought her back. Now that she was asked, Shen Yijia realized that this was a huge problem.
Song Jingchen saw her expression and said helplessly, “Please ask a few people to send her back to Xiagou Village.”
As soon as Song Jingchen finished speaking, An Xiu’er suddenly stopped struggling and looked at him with a silly smile. “Hehe, you’re finally here.”
Shen Yijia’s face instantly darkened. She really didn’t forget to think about her man even if she was crazy!
She almost blurted out, “Throw her out.” Song Jingchen instructed in a low voice, “Bring her in first.”
An Xiu’er seemed to understand. She changed her crazy appearance and shook off South Wind. She raised her head and stuck out her chest as she followed Song Jingchen.
Shen Yijia was speechless. “Why don’t we throw her out?” she thought.
Song Jingchen pinched her hand in amusement. “Let’s see if you dare to bring random people home next time.”
Shen Yijia said seriously, “Should I throw her back now?”
Song Jingchen was speechless. He thought of something and his eyes flickered.
“There’s no hurry. I have something to ask her.”
“How can you ask her anything if she’s crazy?” Shen Yijia rolled her eyes.
“Let’s try.”
In the courtyard, Madam Li and MO Yuan were skewering cured horse meat with straw ropes. When she saw them return together, she asked, “Is Xiu’er alright?”
Shen Yijia pouted. “She’s fine. She still covets my husband.” Look, that gaze was glued to her beautiful husband.
She even suspected that An Xiu’er was pretending to be crazy.
Madam Li paused and noticed the way An Xiu’er looked at Song Jingchen. She frowned and said, “Let’s hire a few escorts to send her back to Xiagou Village tomorrow.”
The An family would feel terrible if they saw a good girl become like this.
Thinking that she had chosen this path herself, Madam Li was relieved. She instructed, “South Wind, help carry this meat to the back room and hang it up.”
South Wind agreed. He thought of something and ran to the well in the kitchen to wash his hands before returning and starting to move the meat.
Worried that he wouldn’t be able to hang it properly, Madam Li followed him to the back room.
They didn’t see Brother Hao and the others in the central room. Song Jingchen asked, “Are Brother Hao and the others not back yet?”
Shen Yijia glanced at An Xiu’er, who had followed her in. “Because of her, they’ve been hiding in Fan Mingyuan’s room to do their homework.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the person who was staring at Song Jingchen quietly suddenly exclaimed, “It stinks. I want to take a shower. You, quickly get me some water.”
When she said this, she looked at Shen Yijia with a matter-of-fact expression. Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. “I thought you refused to shower.”
She was indeed crazy. Otherwise, why would she address herself using a tone that only imperial family members used? Even if she was still in Lord Jing’s residence, she wouldn’t have the right to call herself that.
An Xiu’er looked at Song Jingchen shyly. “Young Master doesn’t like it.”
A person with disheveled hair, a dirty face, and a stench on her body acted like a little girl.
Not to mention Shen Yijia, even Song Jingchen was disgusted.. He suppressed the disgust in his heart and asked in a low voice, “Who am I?”
