The Lucky Bride Is Pretty And Delicate Novel - Chapter 43
Chapter 43: Set Out
In the Zhou Mansion.
Liu Sanniang had been watching this fake Li Yazhi since the morning. She knew that the woman was Hong Ying.
Early in the morning, Hong Ying woke up. Everything was as usual. The servant girl helped her wash up and then she ate breakfast.
She acted exactly like what the real Madam Zhou would.
She even let Nanny carry Zhou Yanshu out to play.
But strangely, the child cried when Hong Ying teased her.
No one realized that the current Li Yazhi was fake. They even said that it was because the weather was too hot and children typically didn’t like hot weather.
Hong Ying smiled. “It’s fine. Carry her away. She’ll be fine after playing for a while.”
Hong Ying had never given birth before and did not understand why this child was crying so much. She felt it was very strange.
Her current appearance and voice were no different from First Madam Zhou’s. But the girl would cry whenever Hong Ying hugged her.
After breakfast, she went to the main courtyard to greet Old Master Zhou.
If Liu Sanniang did not know that she was fake, she would have been fooled by her as well.
Hong Ying did everything so meticulously that no one could see any flaws.
To be honest, Liu Sanniang admired her. If it were her, she would definitely not be so calm, but Hong Ying managed to do it.
Liu Sanniang placed all her attention on Zhou Yanshu. The two of Li Yazhi’s personal maid servants were packing their things and seemed to be going out.
Liu Sanniang frowned and went forward to take a look. She realized that they were packing Zhou Yanshu’s things, clothes, saliva towels, and small toys.
…
Liu Sanniang asked. “Are you taking Little Miss out?”
Tao Hong and Liu Lu rolled their eyes and ignored Liu Sanniang.
In their opinion, it was normal for Madam to take her daughter out to play. Why did Liu Sanniang have to be so nosy?
Although she was ignored, Liu Sanniang was not angry. She smiled and said, “Miss can’t leave the mansion in the next few days.”
Tao Hong was a little angry. She turned around and placed her hands on her hips. “Who are you to tell Madam what to do? Do you think our madam will harm the child?”
Liu Lu snorted. “Ignore her. Hurry up and pack up. If we don’t pack up when Madam comes back, we’ll be the ones getting punished.”
Liu Lu’s tone was sour. Tao Hong snorted and ignored Liu Sanniang. She went back to pack things.
Liu Sanniang left silently.
She was anxious. She realized that if she let Hong Ying bring the child out, everything she had done so far would be in vain.
Liu Sanniang wondered whether Wei Shilai had caught the criminals yet.
After leaving the courtyard, she went to look for Lin Zheng. Hong Ying was not an ordinary person. It was impossible for Liu Sanniang to stop her alone.
Liu Sanniang knew her limits. She was not as brave and capable as Hong Ying, so she wanted to ask Lin Zheng for help. He was the constable head and could mobilize the constables in the residence. She needed to do everything to stall for time.
When Liu Sanniang came to look for Lin Zheng, she didn’t see him, but she saw Zhu Zongyang.
Zhu Zongyang was a little hostile towards Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, why are you leaving your post?”
Liu Sanniang said anxiously, “Mr. Zhu, I’m looking for Constable Lin. Where is he?”
Zhu Zongyang said unhurriedly, “He went to do something. His Lordship’s deployment is so perfect that the criminal won’t have a chance to sneak in.”
Zhu Zongyang did not believe in Liu Sanniang when she said the criminal could change her appearance at will.
Liu Sanniang said, “She is already in the mansion. This Madam Zhou is fake.”
Zhu Zongyang was stunned for a moment before smiling coldly. “Miss Liu, I don’t know how you made Magistrate Wei believe you so much, but I’m different from him. You said that this Madam Zhou is fake, but where’s the evidence?”
“I heard that she went to pay her respects to Old Master Zhou. Do you think Old Master Zhou won’t be able to tell if she is real or not?”
Zhu Zongyang’s tone was filled with sarcasm. Looking at Liu Sanniang who remained quiet, he knew that she had no evidence!
Liu Sanniang frowned. Zhu Zongyang did not believe her, and she did not have the time to persuade him. She turned around and ran out.
The constables guarding the courtyard would not suspect someone who looked exactly like Madam Zhou. Even the maidservants did not find her strange, so how could others suspect her?
When Liu Sanniang rushed back to the courtyard, Hong Ying had already returned. She was wearing a gorgeous dress and looked elegant. With a smile on her face, she pressed her face against Zhou Yanshu. “Sweetheart, I’ll take you out to play today.”
Perhaps because she was unfamiliar with the smell, Zhou Yanshu looked at this woman who looked exactly like her mother in a daze. Then, she pouted and was about to cry. She didn’t understand why the smell was different even though she looked like her mother.
Hong Ying did not hug her, so Zhou Yanshu didn’t howl. The maidservant immediately hugged her and coaxed her.
The maidservant often carried Zhou Yanshu, so Zhou Yanshu was familiar with her smell.
When Liu Sanniang saw that they were about to set out, she felt like a huge mountain was pressing down on her!
Hong Ying smiled and said, “Let’s go. The sooner we go out, the sooner we’ll be back.”
Liu Sanniang blocked the entrance of the courtyard. “You’re not allowed to go out.”
Hong Ying frowned. Before she could speak, her maidservant, Tao Hong and Liu Lu said coldly, “You’re really annoying. Get out of the way.”
Liu Lu rolled up her sleeves. “Get out of the way. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude.”
Liu Sanniang’s expression turned cold. “If I really let you go today, when the real Madam Zhou comes back, she will kill you.”
