After dinner, Yu Fu went back to the west chamber, sat cross-legged on the couch with Yao Lan and listened to each other.
"Princess, sir..."
"Hush! What kind of princess is not a princess? This is Dongling Kingdom, so don't let your mouth slip!"
Yu Fu hastily interrupted Yao Lan's words, poked her head out and looked outside, fortunately Qi Ting said to fetch hot water for her to wash, and she hasn't come back yet.
Yao Lan bowed her head, her round face was very serious.
"Then...Miss, why did you follow Gu Hou to the imperial capital? The God of Medicine just wants you to hide in the farmhouse at the foot of the mountain for ten days and a half months. After those who came to investigate leave, you can continue to return to the valley. Who knew that you were taken away by Dong Ling's soldiers, the God of Medicine was very angry when he heard about it!"
The word Yaolan used to be angry was not enough to describe Xunchi's anger.
At that time, he clearly gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, almost smashing the long sleeves of his white robe with one foot, and then swore to the sky that he would poison the group of eyesless Dongling soldiers to death.
He sent someone secretly to pick up Yufu, but Yufu said that he would not go back for the time being, and wanted to be Gu Huaijiang's daughter, so he went to Dongling Emperor.
After Xunchi heard the news, he cried like a mourner, and hurriedly sent Yaolan to Dongling after crying.
He knew that Yu Fu didn't have the ability to take care of herself, so when she left the valley, he specially asked her to bring a lot of gold and silver treasures, so that life would be easier.
Yu Fu sticks out her tongue.
"It's still not right for me to be at the bottom of the mountain. Those people have been investigating for so many years but they can't find out why. This time they will definitely not let it go. I don't want to implicate Master, but I should stay away from it."
Yao Lan nodded with a vague understanding.
"So Gu Hou wanted people to think that you were his illegitimate daughter, but you deliberately denied it because you were afraid of hurting Gu Hou?"
Yu Fu was originally playing with the little braid at the side of his ear, but when he heard this, he turned his head and pointed to the layout of the West Wing seriously with his eyes.
"Look, how well the general treats me! Although he is repaying his life-saving grace, I don't want to hurt him. It's better to get rid of the relationship as soon as possible."
Anyway, even if she didn't have the status of Gu Huaijiang's illegitimate daughter, the gold and silver treasures she brought out from Immortal Valley are enough to live on.
Yaolan looked at Yufu with some distress.
She is only young, and her family background is noble, so she knows how to think about others.
It was impossible not to like her.
She suddenly smiled and took off her coat.
"Miss, don't worry, you don't have enough, I have more!"
She took off her coat and shook it, the gold and silver ingots in her pocket rolled all over the couch, Yu Fu was dumbfounded.
"There are so many, is this also..."
Yao Lan nodded firmly.
Other than the god of medicine, Xunchi, who else is so generous and dares to throw gold and silver on the two little dolls
"Miss, it's time to wash up."
Qi Ting just walked in from the door, she was holding a large copper basin with both hands, billowing hot air was coming out of the basin.
Seeing Yaolan and Yufu sitting on the couch together, displeasure appeared in her eyes.
A country girl, sitting on the couch with her master, is really unruly!
So what if she is an old servant serving Yufu
In terms of seniority, she, Qi Ting, is the big maid in the West Wing, and everyone else has to stand back!
"Yao Lan, since you have come to be a slave in our Marquis Mansion, you should abide by the rules of our Marquis Mansion. The rules here are different from those in the valley. Maids are not allowed to sit on the couch with the master, do you understand?"
Qi Ting twisted the veil in the copper basin and handed it to Yu Fu, while squinting at Yao Lan with a condescending tone.
Yu Fu put the handkerchief over his face, feeling a little hot, so he took it off.
"Sister Qi, Yaolan only waits in my room. She just needs to behave well outside. I don't have to be so particular about it here. Yaolan is like this, and so are you, sister."
Yu Fu said with a smile, and put the veil over her face again.
She grew up in Immortal Valley since she was a child, she doesn't pay attention to rules, and she doesn't treat Yaolan as a slave.
But like friends, play together and learn together.
She also expressed her kindness to Qi Ting, but the latter didn't appreciate it, and even Yu Fu taught her a lesson.
"Miss Yufu, you grew up in the mountains since you were young, and you are not in the blood of our Lord Hou. Presumably no one taught you the rules, right? It's okay, now Lord Hou treats you as his daughter and let me serve you. I will teach you the rules slowly, and Yao Lan will naturally follow these rules."
Her tone of voice was no longer as respectful as before.
Yao Lan heard the sting from her words, and said dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean? Are you accusing our lady of being an unruly countryman? Do you know that Miss is...is..."
She couldn't reveal Yufu's true identity, and she was so annoyed that she couldn't speak anymore.
Qi Ting became more and more complacent.
Isn't it the apprentice of some medical god? What's so great about it
In front of the Hou Mansion, one of the best in the imperial capital, she was still a country girl.
"How dare I accuse Miss? After all, Miss is a lady. I mean you have no rules, so don't be so presumptuous in the future."
Qi Ting proudly raised her chin.
"My father is the steward of the mansion, and my grandfather is an old housekeeper who has served the mansion for decades. I can't understand the rules of this mansion very well, so I will teach you well in the future, and Miss Yufu .”
She couldn't wait to show off her identity, and wanted Yufu to know how extraordinary she was.
After all, Gu Huaijiang respects Qi An, an old housekeeper, and Yu Fu sees her, so he should know her status.
Yu Fu hadn't said anything, when he suddenly heard the joking voice of a man outside the door.
"Since you know the rules of the mansion best, why not tell me, which rule is it to show off your power in front of the master?"
Qi Ting turned her head to look and saw Gu Jiuge walking up, she was so frightened that she hurriedly knelt down.
Yu Fu saw that he was wearing loose spring clothes, with his hair pulled up casually, as if he had just taken a bath, with a hint of laziness.
What are the pair of phoenix eyes? He glanced at the three people in the room, smiling but not smiling.
As he approached, a faint floral fragrance hit him, which was exactly the smell of bath beans.
"Second brother."
She greeted him honestly, but she was still not used to the blessing ceremony of Dong Ling woman, so she just stood straight on the spot and looked at him with her head slightly tilted.
Looking at those big wet eyes, he couldn't help but smile.
Qi Ting knelt on the ground and hurriedly explained, "Second Young Master misunderstood, this servant did not show off to Miss Yufu. It was Yao Lan who was too unruly, and this servant was afraid that she would lose face to our Marquis, so she disciplined her. "
Yaolan's round face turned red, like a big apple.
She pointed at Qi Ting, "You obviously see that the young lady is not of the blood of the general, so you have slighted her, and you still don't admit it!"
