Everyone was dumbfounded. Were they seeing things? Second Master was actually so gentle to the Second Madam?
When Second Master saved the Second Madam, everyone thought that he had saved her at random. At the very least, he had mistaken her for someone else. But how could this scene be exined?
“I… I’ll do it myself.” The Second Madam lowered her eyes and took the handkerchief from Dawa.
Themotion by the pond was too big, startling the Great Elder. The Great Elder nced at everyone who was in a sorry state and frowned. “What happened?”
Madam Lan and Madam Mei knelt down obediently. not even daring to breathe
loudly. The Second Madam stood up and bowed respectfully and calmly.
“Grandpa, I identally fell into the water just now. Madam Lan and Madam Mei probably fell into the water to save me.”
Madam Lan lowered her head guiltily. Madam Mei, on the other hand, was worried that she would be suspected by the Great Elder for her good intentions.
Unexpectedly, the Great Elder did not even look at the two of them. He called Dawa over. “What’s wrong with you? Weren’t you ordered to capture the assassin? Why did you return to the manor?”
“I…” Dawa’s eyes shed. It was over, it was over. An unknown plot had appeared. How should he act next? “My horse is exhausted!” Dawa said with an idea. “I happened to pass by the manor when I was searching, so I wanted toe in and change horses.”
The horse shed was indeed nearby.
The Great Elder’s sharp gazended on him and he carefully sized up him. In the end, he stared at the moss on his shoes and said, “You went to the opera house?”
Dawa’s heart skipped a beat!
How could he tell?
How could he tell?!
The Second Madam nced at Dawa’s shoes. There was ayer of brown, yellow, and green moss on the edge of his shoes. This was moss that only existed in opera houses. There was little moss elsewhere, and it was not this color.
This moss had a high viscosity and did not disappear even after soaking in the water.
Dawa broke out in cold sweat. It was over, it was over. The Old Master had sharp eyes and was about to see that he was “keeping a mistress in his golden house”. At this moment, he could not inform Yan Jiuchao and the others. If the Old Master charged over like this, he would definitely catch him red-handed!
“Didn’t I say that there’s no need to be in such a hurry?” The Second Madam suddenly looked at Dawa and said, “I don’t want to eat the dates from the opera house now.”
The opera house was originally an orchard, but it waster changed to an opera house. Some fruit trees inside were kept.
Dawa took over the scene in a second. “I saw that it was close, so I picked it for you.”
The Second Madam looked at the ripplingke and said regretfully, “But they all fell into the water.”
It was as if Wen Xu had really picked arge bunch of dates just now!
Dawa patted his chest and said, “It’s fine! At most, I’ll pick it for you again!”
The Second Madam shook her head and said, “No, Second Master has official business to attend to. Just let the servants go for such a small matter. Hongyu, go to the opera house to pick some datester and send some to Old Master and Master’s courtyard.”
“Yes,” the maidservant agreed smartly.
The Great Elder looked at the Second Madam, who met his gaze openly. In the end, the Great Elder did not say anything and left with a flick of his sleeve.
“You guys can leave too,” Second Madam said to Madam Mei and Madam Lan.
“Yes!” The two of them agreed in unison.
Madam Lan’s legs went limp as she was helped back to the courtyard by Madam Mei. The servants also left and dispersed.
Dawa coughed lightly and said, “I… will send you back to the courtyard first.”
Dawa sent the Second Madam back to the courtyard. No one said anything along the way. Dawa might not know, but this was the first time the Second Madam had apanied her husband on such a long journey after marrying into the Wen family for so long.
At the door, Dawa stopped in his tracks. “We’re here. Go in. Quickly change your clothes. Don’t catch a cold.” He was dressed in wet clothes. When he turned around, water droplets were dripping on the ground.
“Wait.” The Second Madam stopped him.
“Yes?” Dawa turned around.
“You…” The Second Madam opened her mouth and said, “The opera house is not safe.. If Second Master wants to hide someone, why don’t you hide them in my courtyard?”
