Chapter 309 Hopeless
"Swish..."
Last night, the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves.
Early in the morning.
The servants began to sweep and clean.
A sudden night rainstorm instantly increased their workload.
Jiang Miaomiao rode the little white wolf around the garden.
Stepping on the wet, yellow leaves, they made a pattering sound.
After several days of being well-behaved, both the humans and the wolves became somewhat jubilant.
The servants in the manor were already used to the appearance of the white wolf and did not react much. They just kept their distance and did not dare to get close.
After going around in circles, Jiang Miaomiao first went to her aunt's courtyard and called Lu Zhizhi over.
The little girl was curious about everything.
She stood at a distance and watched for a while. She saw the white wolf looking at her, but it didn't seem very fierce.
She cautiously approached Jiang Miaomiao step by step, pointing at the little white wolf and asking, "What's its name?"
"Jiang Xiaobai".
"Can I touch it?"
Jiang Miaomiao was surprised; this young lady was quite bold.
Very few people want to touch Xiaobai, nor dare to.
Even Princess Rong'an followed at a distance.
She patted the white wolf's head and asked, "Little White, can I touch it?"
The little white wolf let out a low growl.
"Go ahead and pet it." Jiang Miaomiao scratched the little white wolf, and it obediently stretched its head over.
Lu Zhizhi then slowly reached out her hand as well. The touch was soft, not much different from petting a dog.
Both Lan Shi and Lu Mingxi gasped in shock from a distance.
They didn't dare make a sound, afraid of scaring the white wolf.
Turn around and slap Zhizhi.
Lan only heard from her sister-in-law that Miaomiao raised a white wolf that wouldn't hurt anyone, and that she shouldn't be afraid if she saw it.
But my sister-in-law didn't say it was such a big white wolf. A wolf like that must be a wolf king.
He was completely subdued by a little girl.
She was worried sick for her daughter. If Miaomiao hadn't been sitting on the white wolf's back, she wouldn't have dared to let Zhizhi go over there.
Zhizhi is such a child; she's clearly a girl, but she's like a little rascal.
Although the exile was tough, it didn't break her spirit.
Lu Mingxi thought her younger sister was great; she was bold yet meticulous, and had a cheerful personality, as long as she didn't go too far.
But what really caught his eye was the four- or five-year-old girl on the wolf's back.
He thought the girl was pretty the first time he saw her.
Today, sitting on the white wolf's back feels like stepping out of a painting of a little girl riding a mythical beast.
Lu Zhizhi couldn't let go of her hand once she started petting it, as if she were petting a dog.
Then she wanted to ride it like Miaomiao did, "Little Miaomiao, can I ride it?"
Jiang Miaomiao glanced at her up and down. Cousin Zhizhi was several years older than her, and the little white wolf might not be able to support her weight.
Besides, it certainly doesn't like being ridden by others.
Jiang Miaomiao shook her head, "No, you'll flatten Jiang Xiaobai."
Lu Zhizhi was stunned for a moment.
Looking at Miaomiao and then at himself, he was indeed much older than Miaomiao.
She wasn't angry.
When Miaomiao said she was going to take her to play next door, she immediately became interested.
They followed quietly behind.
Xi'er: ...
After Yan Cheng'an returned, Lu Zhizhi came along.
This is going to cause quite a stir.
The group then arrived at the courtyard of the second aunt.
Lu Zhiyun was resting on the couch when she was woken up by the noise outside.
When she went outside, she saw a white wolf at the door, with a little creature on its back grinning at her.
She widened her eyes, covered her mouth, and hid behind the maid.
She heard from her aunt that Miao Miao had raised a wolf, and she thought it was a joke, but she didn't expect it to be true.
Startled, Lin took several steps back and fell to the ground with a thud.
At this moment, she truly felt the feeling of being dependent on others. In her own yard, all sorts of messy things could come and go as they pleased, and she couldn't utter a single complaint.
Yesterday, a few chickens ran into her yard.
Early in the morning, she had the illusion that she had returned to the place of exile, as if she were dreaming.
When I went outside, I saw that there were not only chickens by the pond, but also geese and ducks in the pond.
She felt like crying at that moment.
Who keeps these things in their mansion in Beijing?
If you're going to raise birds, you should raise swans and peacocks.
The garden reeked of chicken and sheep manure, a nightmare she could never shake off.
I went to my mother-in-law to complain, but the two old ladies were just feeding the rabbits.
The mother-in-law also said: "Second daughter-in-law, how come you still haven't learned to adapt to local customs after all these years? You've come to the wrong person; this place isn't run by your mother-in-law."
Mrs. Lin almost cried herself to death on the spot.
Just as Jiang Miaomiao was about to speak, she saw her second aunt's tears streaming down her face.
Oh my god! She made people cry again.
She didn't even know she had this function.
Never mind, let's wait outside.
What if I faint again?
She tugged at Xi'er's arm. "Go and tell her that I'm going to visit the princess's residence next door and ask Cousin Yun if she wants to come along."
Xi'er reluctantly nodded in agreement.
Lu Zhiyun hesitated upon hearing this.
Looking at Jiang Miaomiao and Lu Zhizhi, how could two little ones possibly meet the princess?
She most likely doesn't believe it.
Princess Yuqing was not someone they could simply meet.
Mrs. Lin also felt it was unreliable, as her daughter had not yet recovered and should not go out, but she still wanted to confirm it again.
"Princess Yuqing really lives next door?"
Xi'er's job was simply to relay the message.
Whether the mother and daughter believed it or not, she didn't say a word more.
The mother and daughter were plotting against the Duke of Shen, so she and the girl listened at the door.
Although she was of lowly status, she looked down on this Miss Lu.
Not only are they ungrateful, but they've also started scheming against their benefactors; they're utterly treacherous.
Seeing that even a maid was giving her a cold shoulder, Madam Lin immediately became furious. "You maid, why are you glaring at me? I'm asking you a question, are you mute?"
Xi'er raised her little face and said, "Second Madam, I used to be Miss Mu's personal maid. I heard everything you said about scheming against the Duke. I am ashamed of you."
"Ha! This place has no manners at all; even a maid dares to criticize me." Lin's heart skipped a beat.
I didn't expect there to be members of the Mu family here.
Careless.
But thinking about it, it didn't really matter, since she had heard what Mu Jiangyue said anyway.
He was determined not to let his daughter become Mu Yunji's concubine.
That man either has a physical problem or a mental problem; otherwise, why would he be so old and still unmarried, even pushing away beautiful women?
She wanted to return to her former life of luxury, but she never intended to push her daughter into a pit of fire.
As soon as Xi'er left, she slammed the door shut.
Jiang Miaomiao: ...Forget it, there's no hope.
If you don't want to change and keep others at arm's length, others will want to lend a helping hand.
I can't poop it out.
Jiang Miaomiao rode the wolf towards the princess's residence.
Xiuxiu rushed over to find her, but hadn't even reached the foot of the wall yet.
Then I heard screams coming from next door.
Her heart was pounding.
Well, I always have to go through this every time I move to a new house and meet new people.
You'll get used to it after a little scare.
Princess Yuqing was not such a timid person.
