Chapter 375 Are They Worthy of Wearing My Clothes?
So after dinner, Chu Qinghuang decided to rest for two hours and get up after the hour of the rat to hurry on.
As for how to get rid of the spy in the yard...
Chenyu and Luoyan fetched hot water and helped Chu Qinghuang take a bath.
Chu Qinghuang had been in a hurry to travel these two days, so she really didn't take a hot bath properly. She didn't refuse, but just said indifferently: "I don't like people watching me when I take a bath, you all go out first."
"But the Sixth Master told the maid to serve the young lady well."
"I said, no need." Chu Qinghuang said indifferently, "Go out!"
"Yes."
The two had to turn around and leave.
Chu Qinghuang walked to the bathtub, reached out to pick up the petals floating on the water, put down her nose and sniffed.
It was pitch black outside the window, and the evening breeze blew gently, rustling the leaves.
Apart from this, the yard was quiet, with no other sounds.
Chu Qinghuang undressed and stepped into the bathtub. She took a bath at a speed she had never taken before. She simply washed off the dust on her body, dried her body, opened the bag she carried with her, took out a black dress from it and put it on. She put the banknotes and tokens in her pocket and hid the dagger in her boot.
After doing all this, she randomly picked up a piece of clothing from the clothes she had changed out of, turned around to take the candle on the table, walked to the window behind, gently opened the window, lit the clothes with the candle and threw them out.
Then she closed the window.
The wind suddenly blew.
Several figures flew over, "What's going on?"
"Why is there a fire?"
"Miss Chu! Miss Chu!"
Chu Qinghuang slowly opened the window and looked at the several black-clothed people who were startled outside. Her expression was cold and impatient: "What are you arguing about? I was too lazy to wash the dirty clothes I changed out of, so I just set them on fire. Is there any need to make such a fuss?"
Several black-clothed people looked at each other.
Instead of washing the clothes, they burned them directly? This was the first time they met such a willful master.
"What's going on?" The door was pushed open, and Zhou Shao rushed in with a few people, "What happened?"
Chu Qinghuang turned to look at him with a cold and unhappy expression.
"Miss Chu." Zhou Shao's face showed apology, "I'm sorry, I... I heard the noise, and I was too nervous for a while, fearing that Miss Chu had an accident."
He paused, as if explaining: "There are all kinds of people here, so it's better to be careful."
"Get out."
Zhou Shao subconsciously looked around the room and glimpsed the clothes scattered on the bedside, "Let Chenyu Luoyan take the clothes to wash."
"I only wear my clothes once." Chu Qinghuang said indifferently, "Why wash it?"
Wear only once?
Chenyu and Luoyan, who followed in, were shocked. The clothes on this Miss Chu were made of the finest materials, which only princes and nobles could wear, and each piece was worth a lot of money.
"How about this." Zhou Shao smiled, "Let them wash it. If Miss Chu doesn't want to wear it anymore, give it to them. It's also theirs--"
"Give it to them?" Chu Qinghuang sneered, her tone a little more angry, "Are they worthy of wearing my clothes?"
Zhou Shao immediately realized that he had spoken out of turn, and apologized again and again: "Miss Chu, calm down, I spoke out of turn."
"Get out!"
Zhou Shao's expression was slightly stiff. This direct descendant of the Zhou family had been praised by others for many years. Because of his outstanding ability among the brothers, he was trained early on. Which of the managers in the family didn't respect him accidentally over the years?
Even if he had to face all kinds of people in the business world, no one had ever embarrassed him so much in front of him.
But soon, he smiled again, and there was even some indulgence in his smile: "Okay, I'll go out now, don't be angry."
Chu Qinghuang had a bad temper and acted capriciously. You don't have to take her words and temper to heart.
Zhou Shao quickly led his people out, leaving only Chenyu and Luoyan to serve.
"You guys go out too." Chu Qinghuang looked at the two coldly, "I want to be alone."
Chenyu and Luoyan's faces changed, and they looked up at Zhou Shao.
Zhou Shao was about to close the door, and he smiled and said, "Let them stay here and serve--"
"Do you need me to repeat it?"
Zhou Shao sighed, "You guys go out too."
The two maids followed him out.
Chu Qinghuang walked to the bed slowly, took another piece of clothing and lit it up and threw it out. The black-clothed man who was about to leave the window had a slightly condensed expression, his eyes were like lightning, and he stared at the burning clothes without blinking, as if he could stare out flowers.
Chu Qinghuang let them watch, and simply stuffed the inner clothes into the bundle, lit it with fire together with the bundle, and threw it out of the window.
Such behavior is obviously against common sense, but no one dared to say anything.
After doing this, Chu Qinghuang turned around and went back to sleep.
The men in black always felt that there was something fishy about taking the clothes, so they dared not close their eyes at all and stared at the fire closely. They did not dare to relax until the fire went out. All those who were originally on duty kept their eyes open and watched for half the night, but did not notice anything unusual. Finally, they felt sleepy at the hour of Chou.
