Chapter 318: Drunk (6)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Jing Guansheng was about to get up when he saw Shen Qiu grab Shen Yuan and shake his head. “Ah Zhi, you take me back.”

Shen Yuan was stunned. Shen Xin said with a frown. “It seems like he mistakes you as Ah Zhi.” With that, he said to Shen Qiu, “You little brat, let go of your second brother.”

Shen Qiu refused to let go. Shen Yuan’s eyes darkened and he said, “In that case, I’ll help Eldest Brother back to his room.” He helped Shen Qiu up and walked out without waiting for Shen Xin to reject.

Just as Shen Xin was about to speak, Shen Wan came over with a glass of wine. “Brother, let me toast you!”

It was extremely common for people to go out and enter. However, when the banquet ended and the madams were chatting in the courtyard, Madam Bai seemed to have remembered something as she asked, “Why isn’t Miss Jing back yet?”

After Jing Chuchu’s clothes were stained by the tea that the maid spilled, she went back to change her clothes. However, she had not appeared since then. Old Madam Shen was somewhat nervous and said to Xi’er beside her, “Go and see why Miss is not here yet.”

“Maybe she’s a little drunk.” Shen Yue smiled and said, “She drank a lot of honey wine just now. Although it’s sweet, the aftereffects are strong. Cousin likes sweet things, so I forgot to stop her. She might be a little dizzy and is resting in her room.”

Xi’er nodded and left.

Feng Anning pursed her lips and nudged Shen Miao. “I thought that with so many girls in your mansion, the family banquet would definitely be very lively. Now it seems that it’s also very boring.” Feng Anning did not have so many sisters. However, even though Shen Miao had so many sisters, she was not close to any of them and was even deliberately ignored. In Feng Anning’s eyes, she felt that it was boring.

“It’s always been like this,” Shen Miao replied.

Feng Anning looked around. “I’m going to the bathroom. Wait for me. I’ll be right back.”

After Feng Anning left with the maid, Xi’er returned to Old Madam Shen’s side and shook her head. “Old Madam, Miss is not in her room.”

“Not in her room?” Old Madam Shen raised her voice. All the madams looked over. Old Madam Shen quickly lowered her voice and said, “Where is she then?”

Xi’er shook her head. “The servants don’t know either.”

“This girl.” Old Madam Shen was a little anxious. “Did something happen to her?”

When the noble ladies saw her like this, they started to have wild imaginations.

Chen Ruoqiu walked over from the other side. After asking what happened, she smiled and said, “Old Madam, don’t worry. I think Chuchu is just drunk. As it happens, Shen Qiu is also drunk and has been sent back to his room to rest. The alcohol at our banquet is strong. Chuchu might have gone to another room by mistake.”

Shen Miao’s gaze suddenly turned sharp when she heard Chen Ruoqiu say “Shen Qiu is also drunk”.

Old Madam Shen shook her head and said, “Go and find a few people to look for Chuchu. She must still be in the mansion. It won’t be good if she catches a cold.” As she spoke, she looked at everyone. “Everyone, I recently obtained a Golden Buddha Painting. It’s a double-sided embroidery by Zhang Qiaoxian. It’s hanging in my main hall. If you want to see it, I’m willing to show you.”

Zhang Qiaoxian was a famous embroiderer in Ming Qi. Hearing that Old Madam Shen had the authentic work, everyone wanted to see it. Shen Miao sneered. That double-sided embroidery was a reward from the palace. A few years ago, it was given to Old Madam Shen by Shen Xin. She was just stingy and had never shown it to everyone. There must be a reason she suddenly wanted to show it to everyone.

The madams and young ladies followed Old Madam Shen to appreciate the embroidery. The main hall of Rongjing Hall was a room similar to a tearoom for guests to rest. Usually, very few people went there because Old Madam Shen did not have many guests. Most of the time, the tearoom was empty.

However, just as they reached the door, they noticed something strange.

There was a sound coming from inside the room that sounded like something had fallen to the ground.

Everyone suddenly stopped in their tracks..

“Who’s in there? Where are the guards?” Old Madam Shen asked.

“Old Madam, the guards were here earlier. There shouldn’t be anyone in the tearoom,” Xi’er said in confusion.

“What a bunch of idlers! They can’t even guard the door properly.” Old Madam Shen was a little angry. “Open the door!”
