Forest, Fang Chen planned to find a safe place to retreat and cultivate until the time was right before venturing out again.Before they had gone far, Fang Chen's Soul Heaven Demon Eye quickly discove...The visitor was Mrs. Wu, followed by a steward from the estate and several maidservants.

The midwives carried many lanterns in their hands, the styles were quite novel and seemed to be newly acquired for Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Mama Wu said, “I've come to deliver a lantern for the Second Mistress. It's almost Mid-Autumn Festival, so hang it up early to add some festive cheer.”

After a pause, she said somewhat embarrassedly, "Second Master specially instructed to select some simple and elegant patterns. He knows that Second Madam likes things that are quiet and refined..."

When Baozhu heard Mama Wu mention the Second Master, she picked up the lanterns and let out a cold snort.

"Perhaps Second Master should pay more attention to what his precious daughter likes. Otherwise, we'll have her crying again about how our young mistress wants to drive her away. Now that she has a different status, our young mistress can't bear the reputation of being an evil stepmother!"

This made Madame Wu and the others quite embarrassed, and they secretly thought that Second Master was foolish.

These two days, they didn't dare to go to familiar shops for shopping, fearing that they would be ridiculed after being recognized. The streets were also filled with all sorts of rumors about the Lou family. To sum up, wherever they went, their heads hung low in shame.

Second Grandmother didn't let go for a few months and the Lou Mansion became so smoky and chaotic. Even the maidservants were very worried, and some of the more cunning ones started to fawn over Mu Yunshu.

Cuijiu knew Baozhu couldn't keep her secret, so she pulled her aside and told her to go do some work. Then, she asked the other maidservants to bring all the lanterns over and instructed them to hang them carefully around the courtyard.

After handing over the lantern, Mother Wu suddenly remembered something and casually said to Cuìyù:

“By the way, there's something I need to tell Second Grandmother. The firewood and coal in the storeroom have all been moved out. I found two vacant rooms to store them in, and some of it has been sent to Ru Feng Pavilion. After the fifteenth day, First Grandmother will be returning to Xian Yi An. I was thinking that the courtyard is now neat and tidy, but left empty, so I might as well put things in there first. That way, if it rains again in a few days, those coals and firewood won't get ruined!”

With an unconscious glance towards Muyun Shu, Cuiyu saw her lightly nod before smiling and saying:

"Just leave everything to Wu Ma in the household. I think she's arranged everything very well, but just make sure things don't upset people at Ru Feng Pavilion!"

"Those who are leaving, what happiness or unhappiness there is!" After that, the two attendants immediately said in a loyal manner, "Don't worry, Miss, we will help Mother Wu settle these matters properly!"

Cuiyu knew these people were all about elevating some and demoting others, and she was too lazy to pay them any mind. She simply nodded and said:

"Well, then I won't keep you ladies busy! We also need to get things ready. Looking at the whole yard bright and cheerful will surely lift Miss's spirits!"

The wives thought that the Second Madam was still heartbroken over her second husband's illegitimate daughter, and they didn't dare to stay any longer and add to her distress. They said a few words of "good" and left with Mother Wu.

As the several people walked away, Mu Yunshu's lips curled into a faint smile, like the first rising moon.

The pearl orb was quite taken, "Miss, you smile is much prettier than all these lanterns!"

Mu Yunshu pinched Baozhu's cheek, "You lazybones, hurry up and hang the lantern! I've been looking forward to this Mid-Autumn Festival for ages!"

These lanterns are in every courtyard, and naturally, they are also found at the Ruifeng Pavilion.

But along with the lanterns, there were also supplies of charcoal and liquor that wouldn't fit in the storeroom.

Seeing the servants from Lu Mansion carry these things to Rufeng Pavilion, Feng He walked to Wu Mama in confusion and anxiety, asking:

"Mom, what are you doing This isn't a warehouse!"

When facing the wind, Mother Wu's face didn't look as good. When the mistress was in power, this girl's nose was practically pointing at the sky.

Although she wouldn't go so far as to take issue with a maid, she was still bothered by last night's events. Something didn't feel right, so she took the opportunity of moving things to come back and have another look.

Hearing the wind chime, she casually replied, "The storeroom leaked, and these items need to be placed somewhere safe. You don't have to worry about it, miss!"

Having said that, she stopped talking to Fenghe and ordered her servants to move the things into a side room.

When others were tidying up, Mother Wu wandered around but didn't find any clues. After everyone finished, she took her people and left.

Once everyone was gone, Feng He ran back to Chu Manniang’s side and worriedly said, “Big Mistress, what does Mama Wu mean by that!”

When she questioned her, she realized that Chu Manniang was sweating profusely and her lips were pale with fear.

"Grandmother, Grandmother, what's wrong with you! Don't frighten your servant!"

Zhu Man'niang leaned against the doorframe and slowly squatted down, looking towards the wing room. Her eyes were red as she said, "Feng He, they...they can't tolerate me anymore!"

Feng He didn't understand the meaning of the old lady. Although they hadn't left Lou Mansion yet, Wu Ma had already moved things in, which was too much. But what did "can't accommodate" mean

She reached out to hold Chu Manniang's hand, and was startled again. Chu Manniang's palm was as cold as ice, just like someone had pulled her up from a well!

I wanted to help Chu Man'niang up and into the house to rest, but no matter how many times I tried, she couldn't stand up. She was completely limp!

"Grandma, what's wrong with you!"

Chu Manniang clutched Feng He's hand tightly, her eyes filled with tears. "Feng He, do you still remember how Seventh Aunt died!"

Chu Man'niang's father had many aunts, and more than half of them didn't live long. When Chu Man'niang suddenly mentioned the seventh aunt, Feng He couldn't remember who this person was for a moment.

After a long while, she suddenly realized, "I remember now, it was the Lantern Festival. For some reason, the Seventh Concubine's courtyard suddenly flooded, and she was trapped inside and couldn't escape, so she lost her life!"

Hearing this, Chu Manni trembled even more violently. The scene from her memory seemed to be awakened, and there was a flicker of fire in her eyes.

Seeing Chu Manniang's reaction, Feng He suddenly realized, "Grand Mistress... Could it be that you think Mama Wu is going to..."

Should they be burned to death!

This can't be true!

"Grandma, this might be a coincidence. Mother Wu said the storage room was leaking, so she moved these things over here. The firewood is for winter, the wine is for Mid-Autumn Festival, and these lanterns are also for Mid-Autumn Festival. It definitely isn't what you think!"

Chu Manniang couldn't calm down at all. “You think why Seventh Aunt would die on the Lantern Festival Because drowning at that time was too normal, no one would suspect anything!”

She clutched her arms tightly to her chest, gritting her teeth and saying:

"Madam Wu must have seen something, she definitely told Madam Xu! Madam Xu is afraid that I will implicate Second Master, so she wants to get rid of me quietly! That's it, it has to be like this!"

Feng He was also flustered, if it were as the eldest mistress said, it wouldn't be impossible. The madam's person wasn't intelligent, but she was certainly ruthless enough!

If the mistress wanted to kill the grandmother and silence her, she wouldn't be able to live either. Realizing this, Feng He also slumped down beside Chu Man Niang, her face full of bewilderment.ded. "Whether he's lonely or not doesn't matter, as long as he joins my team, I'll have a great chance to get that treasure behind the gate! In the whole elf race, there's no one else like him. This s...
