Chapter 790: A Misunderstanding?

by Zhao Yuru, escorted Dongmei into the city.Jia Yin lay on her family's kang, as puffed up as a toad.I've lost out, truly lost out!Here is a translation of the provided text:He was such a handsome y...The old woman, Fang, had been hired as a domestic worker two years prior. She was widowed and had only her young granddaughter to depend on after the deaths of her son and daughter-in-law. Her situation was quite pitiful.

If the little granddaughter were to have something happen to her, she'd probably not live either.

Winter Plum and Shui Ling hesitated for a moment, but instead of kicking the youngest granddaughter of the Fang family away, they reached out to take her.

But because of this brief delay, the unfamiliar woman had already climbed over the wall and was about to run away.

At the crucial moment, Zheng Sanjiang arrived and kicked the midwife down from the wall with one foot.

Then he jumped down too, kneeling on one knee, his knee wedged in the old woman's neck. She rolled her eyes and couldn't fight back.

Winter Plum let out a long sigh, quickly found some rope and rushed forward to help.

To avoid alerting anyone, there were no men in the kitchen today. Only she brought Shui Ling as the main force.

If they let the thieves succeed or escape, they would be truly ashamed to face their master.

Luckily, Zheng Sanjiang was still guarding outside the yard!

Winter Plum stepped on the woman's chest, just about to bend down and tie her up, when she saw black blood flowing from the corner of the woman's mouth.

She hissed in anger, “Damn it! This thing has poisoned itself!”

Zheng Sanjiang also frowned, but he still did not release his knee until the midwife's face turned black and she tested his breath again. He then stood up, "Indeed, he was poisoned. You continue your work, I will report to the master that this is an assassin."

Having said that, he pulled out a willow basket disguised as a vegetable container, threw the woman in, covered it with a sackcloth, and carried it on his back as he walked out.

The unknowing would only think he was carrying vegetables to the kitchen, who knew that basket held a dead person...

Winter Plum and Shui Ling's faces were also not good, they were all sweating for the fight just now.

No wonder they couldn't fight back, that old woman was actually a death soldier!

Assassins are different from ordinary guards and bodyguards. They are usually children bought by wealthy families in various places, secretly trained for many years. They are well-fed and cared for, with some even brainwashed daily, taught to be loyal above all else.

After completing his studies, he would take on assassination jobs for his master, always resulting in death and injury.

Either the target dies, or the mission fails, a death by suicide for the assassin...

Unexpectedly, the mastermind behind the scenes plotted against the Li family and acted so ruthlessly...

Li Lao'er was entertaining guests when he saw Zheng He gesturing at the door. He made an excuse and walked out.

When he heard that the other party had sent assassins, his face changed...

At the same time, Jia Yin also received a message from Shui Ling.

She looked at the women in the house, including her grandmother and sister-in-law's children. After a moment's thought, she got up and said, "Grandma, yesterday we received a basket of strawberries at home. I'll have someone wash them and bring them over so everyone can try some fresh ones."

Li Laotai thought her granddaughter was tired and didn't want to socialize, so she said impatiently, "Go ahead."

Jia Yin was just about to go out when Bao Zhu grabbed her hand, "Sister Jia Yin, I'll go with you."

Jia Yin was anxious. She was afraid that the clumsy cook in the kitchen might have accomplices, who would target the women in the house next. So she decided to go out herself and take the danger with her.

As a result, the Pearl insisted on following. What if something truly happened Wouldn't it be an extra burden

Unfortunately, before she could refuse, Baozhu pulled her out.

Since words failed her, Jia Yin gave Shui Ling a meaningful glance. “Have someone wash the strawberries and bring them over. Let's go for a walk in the small garden.”

Shui Ling agreed and quickly arranged it.

The three of them went to the garden, not noticing at all that a little maidservant was quietly following them…

The earl's mansion wasn't large, but in order to cater to the vanity of the young girls at home, a garden was also built.

Of course, there are no pavilions or towers, just a one-mu small garden. It's quite suitable to take a walk after a meal.

It's late autumn now, and the cold wind chills you to the bone.

All the wives were inside the house, and their maidservants and female companions were all crammed at the doorway. A few were left to listen in, while the rest had gathered in the garden, gossiping and passing the time.

Seeing Jia Yin and Bao Zhu coming over, everyone lowered their heads and quickly stepped aside.

But there were exceptions. A little maid, seemingly a bit nervous, didn't hold on tight enough, and her handkerchief was blown away by the wind.

She crouched down and picked things up all the way, while her handkerchief ran along, quickly arriving three steps away from Jia Yin and the others.

When she finally caught the handkerchief, she awkwardly raised her head to greet Jia Yin and apologize, "Your Highness, it was this servant's carelessness that offended you…"

Jia Yin laughed and shook her head, just about to speak when she looked back in fear at the maid behind her and shouted, "What do you want to do!"

The little maid jumped in fright, turned her head to look, but there was nothing behind her.

She thought it wasn't good, just as she was about to dodge, a puff of white powder flew onto her face.

In a rush, she instinctively took a breath, but she didn't even have time to hold it.

She couldn't help but feel indignant and glared angrily at Jiayin. She wanted to speak, but she was too weak and could only pass out in frustration, collapsing onto the ground.

Waterling immediately jumped forward and skillfully removed the little maidservant's jaw...

Bao Zhu's mouth hung open, bewildered from beginning to end.

What's going on

This maidservant who picks up handkerchiefs, is there something wrong with her

Jia Yin let out a sigh of relief and turned to see Bao Zhu’s dumbfounded expression. She gently closed Bao Zhu’s mouth with her hand and smiled, “If you have something on your mind, just keep it to yourself for now. I’ll explain it to you later. Go back and find your mother first, and don’t follow me.”

Today someone is causing trouble, there will be danger around me.

Bǎo Zhū nodded blankly, then shook her head frantically after coming to her senses.

She yanked two flower hairpins from her head, messing up her hair in the process. Then she nervously looked around, "No way, I can't leave! If there's danger, run away That's not being loyal at all!"

She strained to keep Jiayin behind her, her hands trembling as she said, "Jiayin sister, don't be afraid, I'll protect you!"

Jia Yin is truly helpless and funny, but this foodie girl still has a conscience. It's just that two flowers are probably not enough to even hurt someone's hair...

At this time, Li Lao Er brought Zheng He in. Seeing his niece was safe and sound, he let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing the maid on the ground, his face darkened again.

"Fu Niuer, didn't I tell you to stay inside and not come out without permission"

Jiayin quickly said, "Second Uncle, I heard that someone was caught trying to move things in the kitchen. I'm afraid they have accomplices and might attack the women again, so I came out for a walk."

As a result, the maidservant took advantage of picking up the handkerchief to get closer to me. Just in case, I sprinkled her with some powder.

Li Laoer, hearing this, no longer bothered to complain to his niece and called Zheng He forward for inspection.

Zheng He touched his servant girl's mouth for a long time, his face strange.

"That...Master, Madam, this maid's words are not venomous!"

What!

Jia Yin was a little embarrassed.

Could it be that she was just overreacting, thinking everyone was a threat She's really just an ordinary maidservant!

Suiling was also unconvinced and cried out, "Impossible! That maidservant just now was fierce and looked like she wanted to eat people. How could she possibly not be a bad person!"

After that, she crouched down on the maid's body and touched her randomly...
