Chapter 132 After killing five men, she became a nightmare for all men in the capital.

"Shut up!" Jiang Shiyan stood aside holding the handkerchief, gritting her teeth and cursing.

When the maid and mother-in-law on the side heard Jiang Zuilan's words, her eyes showed a bit of gossip.

"What, so it doesn't come from the second sister? Is it because some young boy admires the second sister, so he borrows the thing to miss her?" Jiang Zuilan mocked.

A young boy took the young lady’s things and looked at her, which was enough to make Jiang Shiyan feel sick.

As expected, Jiang Shiyan became so angry that she took two steps forward to hit Jiang Zuilan, but Jiang Zuilan grabbed her wrist and flicked her, causing her to fall to the ground.

"Are you guys dead? Let me tear her mouth apart!" Jiang Shiyan was knocked to the ground without being hit. She glared at the maids and women who were watching the fun and yelled.

.

Several maids and women rushed towards Jiang Zuilan.

Jiang Zuilan pushed back and a woman fell to the ground.

Jiang Shiyan saw it and shouted angrily: "Trash! Why are you so stunned? Beat her!"

Hearing Jiang Shiyan's words, two more maids and three women came over immediately. The five of them gathered their energy and rushed towards Jiang Zuilan.

Jiang Zuilan kicked an old woman out with a sideways kick. With a scream, the old woman sat down on Jiang Shiyan, and Jiang Shiyan, who had just stood up, was pushed down again.

Then all the maids and women were kicked onto Jiang Shiyan, and she was pinned down and unable to get up.

"You guys - get out of here!" Jiang Shiyan shouted angrily as she was pinned down and unable to get up.

"Second sister, even if it is a misunderstanding, can't you just explain it clearly? How can you talk to your sister like this? You are also a legitimate daughter after all, and you have to behave like a legitimate daughter. If word spreads about your behavior like this, it will be detrimental to your reputation.

That's not good. Besides, you brought people to search my yard indiscriminately. Now the lost things have been found elsewhere. Just apologize to me and ask me to forgive you. Why are you so angry? You want to hit someone!

"Jiang Zuilan persuaded him earnestly, with a look of helplessness on his face.

This Jiang Shiyan said she had lost something and came to her to look for it. If she hadn't taken precautions and put the hairpin with a boy with a bad reputation, she would have really been framed by her.

Jiang Zuilan glanced at Qiu Yu, this Qiu Yu dared to collude with Jiang Shiyan to frame her.

When Qiu Yu saw Jiang Zuilan like this, a chill ran down her back, and she felt uneasy. Was she being suspected?

Jiang Shiyan pushed away the maids and women, glared at Jiang Zuilan, then looked at the grinning maids and women, and cursed, "Useless things!"

Jiang Shiyan said confidently, "I went to my grandmother's house yesterday to say hello, and then to my own yard. I have never been to other places. How could I be picked up by a boy? I think it was you.

Ghost!" After saying that, she stared at Jiang Zuilan's face again. She asked Qiu Yu to throw the white jade hairpin in this yard yesterday, so why couldn't she find it today?

Could it be that Qiu Yu has become a traitor? Jiang Shiyan’s eyes turned poisonous when she looked at Qiu Yu.

When Qiu Yu saw Jiang Shiyan like this, she quickly shook her head.

"Second sister, there are so many people here now. Please tell me. I didn't come near you at all yesterday. Why did you immediately blame me when you lost your hairpin? Instead of going to find that boy?"

The maids and women all lowered their heads and said nothing.

"Humph!" Jiang Shiyan was speechless and stared at Jiang Zuilan.

"What the second sister said is strange," Jiang Zuilan said calmly, "Didn't they all be found in the servant's room? Why is it blamed on me again? Is the second sister stupid? You are forcing the servant to excuse yourself,

I wonder who that young boy is? I am so lucky to have my second sister protecting me like this!"

"You - shut up now!" Jiang Shiyan heard Jiang Zuilan's words, and every word she said was accusing her of raising a wild man, and if she continued like this, everything that was not true would become true.

The direction of the wind turned, and any further words would only make the picture darker and darker. Jiang Shiyan's face turned pale and red, she glared at Jiang Zuilan, gritted her teeth and threw away her sleeves before leaving.

Not only did this damn girl become more powerful, but her mouth also became poisonous. Jiang Shiyan couldn't stop feeling it in her heart.

Seeing Jiang Shiyan leaving with several maids and wives, Jiang Zuilan turned to look at Qiu Yu coldly.

Qiu Yu was stared at by Jiang Zuilan and felt numb, but she didn't dare to admit anything.

"Qiu Yu, clean the yard. I think you have eaten quite well today. You don't need to eat anymore tomorrow."

Jiang Zuilan was interested in teasing Qiu Yu, so he kept this little maid to play with and entertain herself for a while, allowing her to suffer more and teach her how to behave.

Qiu Yu originally thought that she would inevitably get beaten again today, but when she heard Jiang Zuilan's words, she breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time started to feel worried again.

The fifth young lady found out as expected. There were only two of them in the courtyard. No wonder she doubted herself. But she was only a maid, so how could she dare to resist the second young lady's words.

Qiu Yu felt a little guilty, so she quickly responded and ran to clean up as if running away.

When Jiang Zuilan was enjoying the cool air in the yard, he heard two female voices coming from outside the yard, "It's pitiful too. The fifth lady is two years younger than us and is about to marry an old man in his sixties. I heard that the engagement has already been arranged.

, I just have to wait until the fifteenth of this month to get married."

Another female voice came, "What's the pity for? Being able to marry a fourth-grade official means you're paying high incense. What's the pity for?"

"I heard that the Minister of Rites is an old beast who likes to abuse women. I heard that many concubines and maids were tortured to death by him!"

"I heard that the eldest young master is going to take the imperial examination this year. The Minister of Rites happens to be the examiner of this year's imperial examination. When the fifth lady gets married, won't the eldest young master be able to find a good reputation?"

"Shh, keep your voice down, be careful not to be overheard by others. Alas, I said that if you have time to worry about others, you might as well worry about yourself. She is still a young lady after all. We maids may not necessarily marry anything in the future.

What kind of person is that?"

As soon as Jiang Zuilan heard what the two maids outside the yard said, she knew that Mrs. Wang was ready to sell her to the old man to find a future for her son.

But I'm afraid her plan will fail and she will get married at the age of fifteen? Today is the third day of the lunar new year, Jiang Zuilan's eyes flashed coldly.

It was night, the moon was dark and the wind was high.

Jiang Zuilan changed into Qiu Yu's clothes and walked out of the small courtyard.

In the residence of the Minister of Rites, Jiang Zuilan looked at the white-haired old man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks lying on the bed, with a cold look on the corner of his mouth. He picked up the quilt and covered the old man's face.

After a while of struggling, there was no movement from the person under the quilt. After a while, Jiang Zuilan let go of his hand, reached out to touch the old man's neck, and then covered him with the quilt again.

In the dark night, a girl dressed as a maid covered her face, revealing only a pair of big bright eyes. The girl frowned in disgust and quietly disappeared into the house of the Minister of Rites. No one noticed her from the beginning to the end.

The next day, Jiang Zuilan was woken up early in the morning.

"What's wrong Qiu Yu?"

"Fifth Miss, I heard that the Minister of Rites is dead!" Qiu Yu heard the maids talking about this early in the morning, and said quickly when Jiang Zuilan asked.

"Oh? Why did he die suddenly?" Jiang Zuilan showed no expression, as if the person who sneaked into the Minister of Rites' Mansion yesterday was not her.

"I heard that he died of suffocation due to an asthma attack." When Qiu Yu said this, she breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, she didn't want Miss Fifth to marry that old man. You must know that if Miss Fifth married, she would have most of her

She might be married off, but she didn't want to be married to a disgusting old man who loved to abuse women.

"Oh." Jiang Zuilan didn't react at all. Everyone died. Wang's plan must have failed this time.

"How can such a good person die just because he wants to die? What will happen to Lin'er's imperial examination now?" Mrs. Wang had a headache. She finally found someone who could help Lin'er's career. How could she die just like that?

What about dead?

"Madam, do you think it was the Fifth Miss who killed her?" the nanny next to Wang said, remembering the news she heard today.

"Nonsense, the Minister of Rites is old, so it's normal for him to die. Let me think about who else is suitable, and quickly marry that scourge to save the family from peace." Wang frowned and thought carefully about some officials in the capital.

The Wang family specially chooses some notorious crooks that no girl is willing to marry.

"The second son of the Li family in the west of the city is a good concubine. The key is that his father is responsible for marking papers. I heard that he is already in his thirties and has not yet married a wife. It is just right."

After trying it all over again, I finally found someone I thought was suitable.

"But madam, I heard that the second son of the concubine of the Li family is a gambler and a frequent visitor to the brothel. Would Miss Fifth be willing?" The nanny next to Wang remembered that Jiang Zuilan was not easy to fool.

"Her marriage is decided by me, my aunt, and it's not up to her whether she wants it or not!" Wang made the decision immediately. Only a concubine dared to talk back to her, her aunt, and should choose a 'good family' for her.

Two days later, Jiang Zuilan heard the maids discussing again, "I heard that the madam has chosen another family for the fifth lady. I heard that it is the second son of the Li family, and his father is responsible for marking the papers."

"The second son of the concubine of the Li family, I heard that he is old enough to be the father of the fifth young lady, but he is also an official after all."

"But that man is a gambler and a frequent visitor to a brothel. Wouldn't it be a sin for Miss Fifth to marry him?"

"What kind of sin do you have to suffer? It's great to not have to worry about eating and drinking."

When Jiang Zuilan heard this, he knew that Mrs. Wang was still determined. This Mrs. Wang was not in a hurry. He would play with it slowly and clean up the crooked melons and cracked dates first.

This morning, a maid's voice came from outside the house, "Fifth Miss, Madam has ordered that Fifth Miss be invited to visit Mrs. Li's family!"

Is the second son of the Li family in the west of the city interesting? Jiang Zuilan plans to go and have a look.

On the way to the front hall, Jiang Qiaorou's gloating voice reached Jiang Zuilan's ears.

Jiang Zuilan's face remained expressionless, and he continued to walk forward without stopping. Qiu Yu beside him seemed to be hesitant to speak, looking very worried.

Along the way, Jiang Zuilan was looked at in various ways by his servants, either ridiculed, disdained, or pitied.

In this regard, Jiang Zuilan ignored the looks of these people.

"Mrs. Shangshu is so kind. It is Quanzi's blessing to marry the daughter of Shangshu's family!"

"Wherever, the fifth girl can marry into Mrs. Li's family and become the main wife, it is her fate."

As soon as Jiang Zuilan stepped into the front hall, she clearly heard Mrs. Wang and a woman speaking complimentary words to each other.

"Madam, this is your daughter, the fifth young lady! As expected." Mrs. Li's wife looked at Jiang Zuilan with a flattering smile on her face, and she was full of praise for Jiang Zuilan.

However, Mrs. Li's words of praise made Wang's face change.

Jiang Zuilan sat directly on the chair next to her. Mrs. Li looked embarrassed when she saw this, and subconsciously looked at Mr. Wang with a very embarrassed expression.
