A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Su Yihui didn't know what was wrong with her aunt, so she could only pull her back tightly.

Aunt Xue grabbed Su Yihui's arms with both hands and looked up at her.

"What did you do to your big sister?"

Su Yihui's arm was hurt by her grip and she frowned, "What can I do to her? I just taught my cousin from the Gu family how to be a concubine to Lord Shen."

Aunt Xue hurriedly said, "Go find Gu Jinlan now and stop her. If your elder sister finds out, it will be over."

Su Yihui swung her arms impatiently, "What are you talking about, Auntie? What's over?"

Aunt Xue saw that she didn't understand, so she continued to explain, "Your brother is finished. Your brother is in Su Qingyu's hands. Don't mess with her, she will really take your brother's life."

Su Yihui was shocked. Wasn't her brother in the Ministry of Justice? How could he be in Su Qingyu's hands?

Aunt Xue explained intermittently and finally made it clear what happened. But she didn't dare to say a word about the other child. She only said that Su Qingyu imprisoned Su Yuankai in order to teach her a lesson.

After that, she begged Su Yihui again, "You must not joke about your eldest brother's life. Go and stop Gu Jinlan now."

Su Yihui shook her head, "I'm afraid it's too late."

Then he comforted Aunt Xue softly, "I hid here just to avoid suspicion. Even if Gu Jinlan succeeds, it won't affect me."

Aunt Xue was unsure, "How could it be too late? Why don't you go and take a look? What if you can still stop him?"

At this time, at the end of the waterside pavilion in the back garden of the Su family, Gu Jinlan was instructing the maid Huanpei beside her, "Go and tell Elder Shen that the eldest lady asked him to come over to talk."

"I saw you coming and fell into the water. Then you can tell Elder Shen that you saw clearly that it was the young lady who fell into the water."

Huanpei had been following Gu Jinlan since she was a child, and the Su family's behavior these past two days had dazzled her. She was very careful in everything she did, for fear of making a fool of herself and bringing shame to the young lady.

At this time, the young lady asked her to lie in front of Lord Shen, but she didn't dare to do that.

Although she didn't know what kind of official position the Ge Lao held, she thought it should be higher than the prefect of their Pingzhou Prefecture.

"Miss, I dare not." Huanpei said with a trembling voice.

Gu Jinlan was actually a little nervous, but when he thought that this was a matter of life and death, he calmed down.

"What are you afraid of? You are wearing the clothes of the Su family's maid, and even your hair is combed the same way."

"Just think of yourself as a little maid serving in the Su family's inner house, and you are following the eldest lady's orders to invite someone. Don't say anything else, he won't find out."

"I don't believe that he can remember all the servants of the Su family. Besides, my cousin is currently in the inner house talking to the second wife of the Shen family. She can't get away for a while. Now is the best time for us to do this."

Gu Jinlan put his hands on Huanpei's shoulders and said, "Huanpei, your young lady is counting on you for her lifelong event."

Huanpei was puzzled, and after thinking for a while, she began to persuade him: "Miss, have you made up your mind? Elder Shen has a wife, do you really want to marry him as a concubine? With your looks and family background, it won't be easy to find a minor official to be your wife."

Gu Jinlan shook her head and said, "How are they the same? They have different family backgrounds and are different people. Even if I become a concubine, what status do I need to ask for when someone like this can serve him?"

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Huanpei knew that she was the only one who could help the young lady at this moment. She took two deep breaths, nodded at Gu Jinlan, and turned to the direction of the outer courtyard.

In the corridor on the west side of the outer courtyard, Shen Zhixiu and Zhao Ji were standing and chatting.

Zhao Ji smiled and said, "Seeing the old lady of the Su family celebrating her birthday, I remembered that our old lady's birthday is also approaching. You must go early then, and you will have to accompany those old ministers in person."

The old lady he was talking about was the wife of Duke Weiguo, and also Shen Zhixiu's biological aunt.

Shen Zhixiu smiled and said, "There are still two months left. My cousin will arrange some work for me first."

Zhao Ji snorted affectionately, "You are a busy noble, how can I not tell you in advance?"

Shen Zhixiu knew he was joking and didn't care.

Huanpei saw the two talking from a distance and wanted to wait for Shen Zhixiu to come before going forward. But after waiting for a long time, she saw that the two were still talking. Fearing that things would get more troublesome if they were delayed, Huanpei mustered up her courage and walked to the corridor.

"Master Shen, the eldest lady wants you to go to the garden pavilion. She said she has something to say to you."

Seeing that the visitor was a maid from the Su family's inner house, Zhao Ji teased Shen Zhixiu, "Is your sister-in-law worried about you? People say you are henpecked. I finally see something wrong today."

Shen Zhixiu looked at the ring and pendant from head to toe. It looked like the Su family's maid's attire, but she was not. The maid spoke with a Pingzhou accent, and her tone and expression showed panic. There must be something fishy going on.

But Shen Zhixiu could only guess what the trick was.

Huanpei was still waiting anxiously. Shen Zhixiu thought for a moment and said, "Then please trouble Miss to take us there."

Then he turned to look at Zhao Ji and said, "You can come too. Qingyu said a few days ago that she wanted to go early to help with her aunt's birthday. It just so happens that we met today, so let's discuss how to arrange it."

In fact, the Zhao family's affairs did not need to be discussed by the couple. However, the relationship between the two families has always been good, and Shen Zhixiu has always respected this aunt, so Zhao Ji did not think much about it.

He also laughed and said, "Will my sister-in-law scold me for being ignorant if she sees us going together?"

Shen Zhixiu smiled and shook his head, cursing Zhao Ji for talking nonsense, but his eyes were fixed on Huanpei.

The little girl was biting her lips tightly at this moment, with a look of nervousness and fear on her face. The young lady ordered Elder Shen to come over, but two of them came. What should she do?

She wanted to hurry and report the news, but was afraid of attracting the attention of the two masters.

She had no choice but to slow down and think of a solution, but when she turned the corner, she saw the lady waiting for her, but she still hadn't figured out what to do.

According to the agreement between the master and servant, Huanpei quickened his pace and turned a few steps ahead.

She originally planned to inform Gu Jinlan, but when Gu Jinlan saw Huanpei's figure, he jumped directly into the water.

Shen Zhixiu and Zhao Ji walked over and just in time heard a splash, and then saw a figure struggling in the water.

Huanpei didn't care about anything else at this time, and walked to Shen Zhixiu, "Sir Shen, the eldest lady fell into the water, please save her."

Shen Zhixiu frowned, "Did you see clearly? Is she really the eldest lady?"

Huanpei nodded hurriedly, almost crying.

"I can see clearly that it is the eldest lady. Sir Shen, please go down and save her quickly. Don't delay any longer."

My young lady is so weak that she can't hold on for long.

Zhao Ji also looked at Shen Zhixiu anxiously, "What are you thinking? Why don't you go down and save them?"

That's his wife, how come she doesn't seem anxious at all?

Shen Zhixiu looked at Zhao Ji and said, "Cousin, I can't swim. You go down and rescue the person."

Although Zhao Ji felt that the situation was not good, he had to do what he could to save people.

Under Huanpei's horrified gaze, Zhao Ji pinched his nose and jumped down.
