”Fu …” ”Madam …” Madam Yang suddenly came to Nangong Waner's courtyard. Ju Xiang originally had a guilty conscience, but now that he saw Madam Yang and was afraid that the matter of him not being in Assistant Minister’s Residence was exposed, he couldn't help but stutter.
”En, I am looking for Wan Er, I don't need you to wait on me, you can leave now.” Madam Yang said as he looked at Ju Xiang amiably. Then, he walked straight towards Nangong Waner's house.
”Fu …” ”Madam!” Ju Xiang called out to Madam Yang anxiously, and his voice was also loud, causing Madam Yang to jump in fright.
”Mama, you scared me to death.” Madam Yang was truly shocked by Ju Xiang's loud voice, he looked at Ju Xiang who was usually alone, unable to carry his hands, and could not even lift his hands, his sudden voice's power was actually not small, ”What are you doing, Ju Xiang?” Madam Yang asked Ju Xiang as he consoled himself with his chest and breath.
”Fu …” Madam, the young mistress is not in her room … In the room. ” Ju Xiang's face was pale as he stammered.
”Not in the room? It's so late, where did you go? ” Madam Yang saw that the sky was quickly turning dark, and it really wasn't early in the morning.
Oh …” Oh, Miss went to the Liu Estate to look for … Hehe … ”Hehe.” Ju Xiang was naturally obedient. When her Elementary Scholar father was still alive, he had taught her to be a good person, so she shouldn't lie. She really needed to learn how to lie to her young mistress.
”Oh.” Hearing Ju Xiang's words, Madam Yang looked at him carefully, only to see Madam Yang frowning slightly, slowly walking closer, staring at Ju Xiang's face without blinking, Ju Xiang was obviously feeling guilty, in the next moment, his forehead was covered in perspiration, facing Madam Yang's observation, Ju Xiang really forced himself to pretend to be calm and stand there, looking like a wooden person.
Madam Yang frowned, he glanced at Ju Xiang's face and slowly asked: ”Ju Xiang, are you sick? Look at the sweat on your head, did you have a fever? ”You have to pay attention to your body.”
With that, Madam Yang even patted Ju Xiang's shoulders, ”Ju Xiang, I see that you have been working very hard to serve Wan Er. Old master and I are very satisfied with you and it is all thanks to you that Wan Er is able to be so proper now … ”Although it's not that proper, the master and I are still very satisfied with you. If you're sick, you don't have to carry the medicine on your back, so you can find butler Uncle Wang to call a doctor for you to take a good look. If you need money to catch the medicine, just tell me and the lord.”
Ju Xiang's eyes immediately filled with tears from Madam Yang's words. He was moved and was about to kneel down and thank Madam Yang, ”Husband … ”Madam …”
”Alright, since Wan Er is not here, I'll be going back. When Wan Er comes back, tell her to look for me there, if you have nothing to do, you should go back and rest.” Madam Yang smiled gently at Ju Xiang, and then turned and left.
Seeing Madam Yang walking far away, Ju Xiang hurriedly went to the Prince Zhan's Mansion and found Nangong Waner.
In the evening, the Prince Zhan also received a message from the palace. The empress dowager's palace was in its prime this year, so she wanted to call for the Prince Zhan to accompany them.
Although Prince Zhan had heard the message from Eunuch Hai, he didn't plan to go. ”Tell the empress dowager that she's not feeling well and is currently recuperating at home. Lamei will see her another day.”
Eunuch Hai wanted to step forward to comfort her, but when he saw how cold and indifferent Prince Zhan was, he stopped himself from doing so.
When Eunuch Hai was about to go back to the palace, he coincidentally bumped into Ju Xiang who was looking for Nangong Waner at the Duke Palaces. Ju Xiang anxiously told Nangong Waner about the matter of Madam Yang coming to find her and told him to quickly follow her back to Assistant Minister’s Residence.
