Chapter 228 If it weren’t for the lady’s quick reaction just now, they would be in danger today!
At this time, in the old lady's courtyard, Nanny Wang was reporting to the old lady what she had found out.
Seeing that the lady's behavior today was indeed a little abnormal, she went to ask the attendants who had accompanied the lady out, whether the lady had encountered anything unusual today.
When Nanny Wang asked questions, the servants dared not hide anything and told her everything that happened today.
After hearing this, Nanny Wang felt that this was no small matter, so she hurried back to report to the old lady.
After hearing what Nanny Wang said, the old lady sighed deeply.
"Hey! It seems that I can't just leave her alone, otherwise I don't know what kind of trouble she will bring to the Marquis's Mansion. This time, thanks to the Sixth Prince's generosity, otherwise our entire mansion would be implicated by her!"
Nanny Wang stood respectfully by the side and also sighed.
The old lady looked at the flickering oil lamp, thought for a moment, and then instructed Wang Ma, "Go tell Cao Fangqing later that I am very pleased to learn that she has started copying Buddhist scriptures. After she finishes her worship in ten days, ask her to come to me every day and copy scriptures for half a day. It will be considered as praying for the entire mansion!"
After that, he murmured, "This way, she won't have the energy to do anything else!"
"Don't you want to see her? Don't you feel annoyed when you see her?"
Hearing what Nanny Wang said, the old lady smiled and said, "Let her copy Buddhist scriptures in the room next door. Let her go back after she's done. I won't be bothered if I don't see it!"
Upon hearing this, Nanny Wang nodded and went out to pass on the message.
"Madame Wang, why are you here?"
Nanny Cheng came out of the small Buddhist hall and happened to see Nanny Wang walking towards her. She hurriedly went to greet her with a smile on her face.
"Oh! The old lady asked me to pass on a few words to the lady."
Nanny Wang said with a smile.
"Please tell me, my wife is copying Buddhist scriptures inside. I will go in and report to her when she finishes!"
Nanny Cheng pointed at the shadow reflected in the window and spoke in a low voice.
From the shadow, it can be seen that the person in the room is sitting at the table, writing.
Upon seeing this, Nanny Wang lowered her voice and, smiling, told Nanny Cheng the old lady's instructions.
After hearing this, Nanny Cheng's face froze, but she returned to normal in just a moment. She quickly said that she would report the old lady's instructions to the lady, and then politely sent Nanny Wang away.
After seeing Nanny Wang disappear, she hurried into the Buddhist hall.
"Mammy, I seemed to hear Mammy Wang's voice just now. Why did she come here so late?"
Cao Fangqing put down the pen in her hand, rubbed her sore wrist, and asked with a tired look on her face.
Nanny Cheng told Cao Fangqing the old lady's order.
"What? The old lady asked me to go to her place every day to copy Buddhist scriptures for half a day! What kind of madness is she?"
After hearing what Nanny Cheng said, Cao Fangqing stood up quickly and asked in a shrill voice in disbelief.
"Madam, please don't get excited yet. We will think of a solution in ten days. Maybe it's just something that the old lady is in the mood for!"
Cao Fangqing narrowed her eyes and sat back in her chair. For the first time, she felt like killing the old lady, but when she thought of her husband, she instantly put that killing intent away. If anything happened to the old lady, her husband would definitely be sad, and she didn't like to see him sad.
After letting Nanny Cheng massage her fingers for a while, Cao Fangqing continued to quietly copy the Buddhist scriptures. Copying this really makes people calm down. She slowly immersed herself in it, and her mind became clear.
Nanny Wang, who had just returned quietly and hidden in the dark, left here and walked towards the old lady's yard after seeing that there was no more sound coming from the Buddhist hall.
"Madam, I have already told you what you said!"
Nanny Wang walked up to the old lady and reported in a low voice.
"How did she react?"
The old lady asked calmly, her eyes closed and a string of Buddhist beads turning in her hand.
"Madam couldn't believe it and was very angry!"
Nanny Wang remembered Cao Fangqing's sharp voice and shook her head.
"Just wait for her to copy Buddhist scriptures for a while and calm her mind! It's getting late, let's go to bed!"
After the old lady finished speaking, she put the Buddhist beads aside, lay down on the bed, closed her eyes and rested.
Nanny Wang helped her cover the quilt, blew out the lights in the room, and then she hugged a quilt and carefully lay down on the couch by the window. After a while, the two breathing sounds in the room became even. The next morning, Leng Linglong went to the street again to see if she could meet the unlucky Zhao Ting'er. Cao Fangqing must have been confined in the mansion for the next ten days, so she could only continue to make trouble for Zhao Ting'er.
Because of Lanzhi, they made great progress in investigating Fangruo's murder, and Leng Linglong was very happy.
She first went to Ruyi Tower to listen to songs for the whole morning. It was almost time for lunch, but Zhao Ting'er still hadn't come out. She smiled and said to Pei'er beside her, "Come on, I'll treat you to a delicious meal!"
The master and servant came to Zhao Junhuan's Fulin Restaurant chatting and laughing. Just as they reached the door of the restaurant, a flower pot suddenly fell from the second floor and hit Leng Linglong on the head!
Fortunately, Leng Linglong was very skilled and she reacted quickly enough to pull Pei'er, who looked as if nothing had happened, away in time. Otherwise, if the flowerpot had hit her head, she would have been seriously injured if not killed.
Pei'er was suddenly pulled aside by Leng Linglong. Just as she was wondering what was going on, she heard a bang, and then saw a huge flower pot shattered where they had originally stood!
She looked up at the second floor, then at the broken flowerpot on the ground. She clutched Leng Linglong's arm tightly, her heart pounding, and she was filled with fear!
If it weren’t for the lady’s quick reaction just now, they would be in danger today!
