ARDA - Chapter 40 - Why Did Your Master Send You?

 Seeing Jiang Ning's shy look, she knew that Xu Yuanqing went to see her alone and left a good impression.

I have to say that Xu Yuanqing's is very useful. Jiang Ning came from the countryside and had never seen the world. When she saw such a young talent, she couldn't help but have feelings.

Jiang Mengyue raised her lips and smiled slightly, "That young master is really a good person. If you see him next time, you must repay him well."

Jiang Ning still lowered her head and nodded slightly.

In Jiang Mengyue's opinion, she is just like a young girl in love, full of shyness.

But where others couldn't see, Jiang Ning lowered her head, her face was cold, and there was a sneer at the corner of her mouth.

Jiang Ning injured her ankle, and everyone had no intention of playing anymore and went home.

After returning home, Jiang Ning rubbed her ankle with medicated oil every day. Within a few days, the injury healed and she was able to walk around.

Chun Lan was amazed. Ordinary medicine for bruises would take at least half a month to walk, but this medicinal oil, sold in some medical clinic they do not know, had such a miraculous effect.

Jiang Ning looked at the medicine bottle and remembered that there was an old miracle doctor beside Chu Yunli. This medicine for bruises might have been made by the old miracle doctor.

He casually gave away the medicine made by the miracle doctor, which was quite generous.

Thinking of this, she also remembered that Chu Yunli had told her to remember this kindness. How should she repay the kindness of giving medicine...

When Jiang Ning was distressed, Chun Lan walked in and said, "Miss, the second lady is here."

Jiang Mengyue stepped into the door, "I heard that my sister's injury is healed?"

"Yeah." Jiang Ning got up and walked around. The ankle injury had healed.

"That's great." Jiang Mengyue came over and held Jiang Ning's hand, "I'm still thinking about it. If I had been with you at that time, you wouldn't have been hurt."

"I can feel relieved to see that you are okay. I still have some things to deal with. I will come to visit you again in the future."

When Jiang Mengyue said this, she frowned, as if she was very distressed.

"Oops! I forgot that I have to go to Wenmo Shop to pick up the inkstone today. It is Minglan's favorite inkstone. If I don't pick it up today, it will be bought by someone else! But I have something on hand and can't leave... "

After saying that, she looked at Jiang Ning with a guilty look on her face, "Sister, can you run a trip for me? Minglan likes that inkstone very much. I think if it is a gift from you, sister, it can bring the relationship between you brother, and sister closer."

Jiang Mengyue looked like she was thinking about them.

It's just... with such a good thing, will it be her turn?

Jiang Ning smiled faintly. She had already figured out Jiang Mengyue's temperament. The gentler she spoke, the more she said she had dug a big hole for her to jump into.

Okay, let's see what she wants to do.

It happened that she had something to go out and had to see Yu Er.

Jiang Ning nodded in agreement, "Since Minglan likes it, we can't delay it. I'll go there on behalf of my sister."

"Okay, excuse me, sister." Jiang Mengyue smiled gently, but there was a coldness in the depths of her eyes as if her plan had succeeded.

......

When Jiang Ning took Chun Lan out, she did not go to Wenmo shop but went directly to the back alley of the restaurant.

Not long after, Yu Er ran over and said respectfully, "My lady's instructions have been completed. I have found a maid who is good at kung fu and has a clean background."

"Bring her here."

"Yes." Yu Er whistled and waved, and a thin woman walked over not far away.

Jiang Ning opened the curtain slightly and looked at the thin woman.

The woman had dark eyes and a stern smile, and you could feel the chill spreading over her body just by looking at her.

This woman is no ordinary person.

Jiang Ning couldn't help but frown. She just wanted to choose a maid who knew kung fu. Why did she bring trouble?

"Who are you?"

The woman lowered her eyes and replied calmly, "This servant is Shuang Yue, I know some boxing and kicking martial skills. I hope to be able to work under the hands of the young lady."

Jiang Ning looked at Yu Er.

Yu Er lowered his head with a guilty conscience, not daring to face Jiang Ning's gaze. He whispered, "Miss Shuang Yue has strong martial arts skills and a clean background. She will never betray the young lady..."

Jiang Ning sighed, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the faint mark underneath the thin woman's collarbone.

That imprint...

"Come closer." Jiang Ning waved.

The thin woman walked to the carriage. Jiang Ning suddenly stretched out her hand, slightly opened the woman's collar, and saw the brand.

The woman was startled and took two steps back.

Jiang Ning was even more surprised. She remembered that the brand was the brand of the secret guard beside Chu Yunli.

But why are Chu Yunli's secret guards here? 

Jiang Ning lowered her face and said coldly, "What does your master mean by sending you here?"
