BXBX NOVEL Chapter 645 - 645: Discussion
“Yes, of course.” The four maids all agreed.
Xue Yan and Jiang Yue got down from the carriage first.
Miao Han put down the curtain of the carriage to cover the Empress inside.
Jiang Yue saw that Zi Cui and Xia Han still had swords at their waists and said,
“Put the sword away.”
“Yes.” Zi Cui and Xia Han quickly put away their swords and placed them in a secret compartment in the carriage. Then, the two of them each led a horse.
Miao Han was leading the horse that was pulling the carriage.
Xue Liu followed beside the carriage.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan also walked along the carriage.
They were about to enter the village, and the person in the carriage wasn’t used to the bumpy roads. Although she was dizzy, it was still good to be careful and hold on.
The carriage slowly entered the village.
The moment they entered the village, there were naturally villagers who saw them and asked Jiang Yue and Xue Yan who those four maids were. They even asked quite a few questions about who was inside.
Xue Yan answered them all.
The general idea was that the person in the carriage was the sister of a classmate and good friend of his whose surname was Xiao.
This elder sister had previously followed her husband to do business in another city. Although she had earned some money, her husband had passed away due to illness. She was pregnant, so she brought her maids back to seek refuge with his schoolmates and friends. She felt that he was her biological younger brother and could more or less be relied on. However, his classmate and good friend had gone on a study tour and would not be able to return for a year and a half. Their house had also been sold to raise money for the study tour, so the sister could not live there.
During this period of time, this sister had been staying at the inn.
It was only when his classmate and good friend found out about this matter that he sent someone to send a message back, asking the sister to come to Locust Village to look for Xue Yan and see if his family could help take care of his sister.
These four maids were her maids.
When Jiang Yue heard these words, she originally felt that Xue Yan was making it up blatantly. However, as she listened, she felt that something was wrong. She lowered her voice and asked, “Do you really have a classmate with the surname Xiao who went out to study? Does he really have a sister?”
Xue Yan was a little embarrassed. “I didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence. Didn’t Shao Shuting say that we should call her Aunt Xiao? Xiao… I will send a letter to my friend. Just in case.” He was being meticulous.
Jiang Yue did not say anything else.
On the other hand, Zi Cui, Xue Liu, Xia Han, and Miao Han almost fell to the ground. Xue Yan actually said that her husband was dead…
Although it was made up, it would make people believe it more and make it more reasonable for them to appear here, but wasn’t it a little too bold…
If the Emperor knew about this…
Seeing the four maids like this, Jiang Yue knew what they were thinking, but she didn’t care.
So what if the current Emperor knew? Xue Yan was doing this to make everything safer for everyone, he was obviously including the safety of the Empress and the child in her stomach. “Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, where have you been? I asked you to come back and wait for lunch. You- Hey, who are these people?” Xue Erfu and Xue Dafu had also returned from the workshop, but when they realized that Xue Yan and Jiang Yue were not back yet, and that it was about time for lunch at home, they rushed out to find them.
Who would have thought that as soon as he stepped out of his courtyard, he would see Xue Yan and Jiang Yue return.
There was also a carriage behind them, and four girls dressed as maids were behind them. Two of the girls were even leading a horse.
Xue Yan said what he had said to the villagers just now. Liu Guixia and the others also came out to take a look and heard everything. There was no need for Xue Yan to say anything more..
