"Rescue a little girl and a servant?" After hearing Qu Moying's words, Nanny Zhou looked at her purse again and thought carefully.
After a long pause, he said, "It seems that there was such an incident... But I was not around at that time, and I don't know who it was... When I came back, I heard that Madam had rescued someone outside."
Nanny Zhou paused for a moment and continued, "Madam is kind-hearted and has helped many people in the past, but I don't know if Master Ningyin was one of them. At that time, Madam had just married into the capital and had not given birth to any children for many years. She would go to worship Buddha from time to time and try to be kind to others and do more good deeds."
It’s really hard to explain this.
"This purse... belongs to mother?" Qu Moying changed the way he put it.
Madam Zhou nodded vigorously: "This purse is indeed Madam's. I know the things that Madam uses best, but... I really don't know... Was this purse given away at that time?"
"Not giving a purse?" Qu Moying understood.
"I shouldn't give it as a gift. Madam's things were embroidered by herself, so how could she give them away casually? Even if... even if she felt sorry for the child, she would give him a banknote directly. How could she put it in the purse that Madam embroidered herself? This... this is not in line with Madam's personality."
Nanny Zhou chose her words carefully.
"Madam has always been gentle and doesn't like fame. Even if she has done something good, she doesn't want others to know about it. The possibility of her directly handing over her purse is almost non-existent, unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless Madam really has a crush on this child, but this doesn't make sense..." Madam Zhou lowered her voice and almost talked to herself, "If they really had a destiny, she would have kept the child."
There was a contradiction here. Nanny Zhou looked through the purse in her hand and couldn't understand what was going on.
When Qu Moying heard this, his heart was moved.
"The purse must be mother's?" she asked thoughtfully.
"Sure." Nanny Zhou nodded without hesitation.
"Don't you remember what happened to Master Ning Yin?" Qu Moying asked again.
This time, Madam Zhou shook her head without hesitation: "I really don't remember it."
"If mother really loves you, she would leave you such a personal thing. If it was just a general relief, she wouldn't leave you this purse?" Qu Moying continued.
Nanny Zhou agreed with this statement. This statement was in line with the lady's personality. The lady didn't know many people when she came to the capital from Jiangnan. She seldom appeared in public in Jiangnan. She was also very cautious in the capital. Even when Nanny Zhou was not with her, the lady would never do such a thing.
"That is, this matter... may not be true." Qu Moying thought for a moment and came to this conclusion.
Madam Zhou disagreed with this conclusion: "Master, this purse is real, and it was given by Master Ning Yin. Madam was kind-hearted back then, so even if she rescued Master Ning Yin, it wouldn't be a big deal. Besides, who would take the wrong things from their savior? She has been carrying this thing around for so many years, so it must be real."
This is also what Nanny Zhou can’t understand.
"Madame Zhou, if what you said is true and what Master Ning Yin said is also true, this is impossible. One of you must be
Of course, one of them is fake... You are an old man in the mansion and a close friend of the lady, so we believe you more. Then Master Ning Yin is fake."
Yuchun couldn't help but speak.
The most puzzling thing about this matter is the contradiction between the two people's words, but if you change your mind, if one of the two people's words is false, this matter can be explained. Compared with Master Ning Yin, Nanny Zhou is naturally more trustworthy.
Yuchun believed what Zhou Ma said intuitively.
"But why would Master Ning Yin do this?" Nanny Zhou had a very good impression of Master Ning Yin. She thought that although this Master had entered a Taoist temple, she was still a good person. Moreover, with her talent and beauty, she was able to endure the hardship in the temple. For this reason alone, Nanny Zhou felt that Master Ning Yin was a person with a very good temper.
How could such a person tell lies, let alone such lies
Was she panicking? Nanny Zhou thought about it over and over again but couldn't figure it out. However, Qu Moying saw it more clearly than Nanny Zhou...
On the other side, Yuxiu helped Master Ning Yin to lie down and rest in the guest room, and called two maids to serve her.
An old woman was decocting medicine in the corridor.
The prescription written by the imperial physician happened to have medicine available in the mansion, so he just got the medicine and boiled it in the corridor.
"Yuxiu, you go back first. I'll lie down for a while. I'll say goodbye to the princess when I feel better. There are still many things waiting for me to do in the temple." Taoist Ning Yin said. He had been dating Qu Moying for a while and knew that the outstanding maid beside Qu Moying was called Yuxiu.
As a maid, this maid named Yuxiu is really good-looking. With such a beauty, people would believe that she is a young lady.
If he were the master, he would definitely not have such a maid serving him. Qu Moying was also very bold, to have such a maid serving him. He was not afraid that this maid would hook up with the King of England.
No matter how you look at it, this maid named Yuxiu doesn't seem like someone who can be a worry-free person.
Master Ning Yin had inquired about and observed the two maids around Qu Moying. The maid named Yuchun had followed Qu Moying since she was a child. Her appearance could only be described as averagely pretty, and because of the friendship they had since childhood, she was naturally loyal to Qu Moying.
This person named Yuxiu is a person who came here halfway. Even if she is somewhat loyal, her loyalty is not as strong as Yuxiu's.
He is now loyal to Qu Moying only because there is no greater benefit for her, which has tempted her to change her mind.
"Master, you are not in good health, so you should rest more. I am not in a hurry to go back. The master asked me to take good care of you. If I go back now, the master will definitely scold me." Yuxiu smiled, went to the table, poured a cup of warm water, and handed it to Master Ning Yin.
"Thank you." Master Ning Yin took it, took a sip and put it in his hand. He didn't put it back in a hurry. His eyes fell on Yu Xiu and he said gently, "A good maid like you, good-looking and steady, which master would not like you? How could your master reprimand you? Your master just said that. Go back. I don't need to worry about you here."
"Master, you speak so highly of me. I am just a servant." Hearing her praise like that, Yuxiu blushed and lowered her head. She was very beautiful, and it was very pleasing to the eye to see her do this.
But there was a hint of self-pity in what she said, which she herself was not aware of.
"What's wrong with being a maid? Look at your appearance and behavior.
It will be better in the future. Who can predict the future? I have read a book before. It said that there was a queen in the previous dynasty. She was just a singing and dancing prostitute, but in the end, she was second only to the emperor and above all others. Those who had looked down on her and criticized her finally had to kneel at her feet.
Master Ning Yin comforted her.
"There is... such a queen? Aren't queens all of noble status?" Yu Xiu blinked, puzzled.
Although she had read a few books, she had never read a book like this.
"Of course there is. If you don't believe me, you can ask your master. Your master must know. As long as a woman has self-respect and self-improvement, she will have unlimited possibilities in the future. Besides..." Master Ning Yin paused here and looked Yuxiu up and down, making her blush. "A beauty like Yuxiu... the future... no one can predict it. Even the master of the temple cannot predict someone like you."
The reputation of the abbot of Qingyun Temple is extremely high. Not to mention a maid, even a noble in the palace might not be willing to ask for this.
Hearing her say this, Yuxiu was very excited. She twisted her hand on the handkerchief and bit her lip, as if she wanted to hold back the words, but she didn't hold them back in the end. "Master... this... this kind of words are not credible! How could the master of Qingyun Temple... talk about this servant's affairs?"
He said this in rebuttal, but there was longing in his eyes.
He hoped that what Master Ning Yin said was true, and he hoped that the Master of Qingyun Temple would notice him. But given the Master of Qingyun Temple's personality, how could he notice him if he was not very special
In the future... could it be that I will have great blessings
"The abbot also mentioned it occasionally... Actually, some of his words... are indeed quite good. If there is a chance in the future, I will ask the abbot for you." Master Ning Yin said softly, looking very easy to talk to.
Yuxiu was overjoyed and kept saying, "Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master."
"It's nothing. It wasn't a big deal. Since the master has noticed you before, he must have seen you. I just don't know if he is willing to say more." Upon hearing this, Master Ning Yin smiled and leaned back, closing his eyes. "If Yuxiu goes out, please close the door for me. I'm not feeling well, so I'll take a rest first."
"Don't worry, Master. I'll be waiting outside. If you have anything to say later, just raise your voice a little." Yuxiu was deeply moved by such a big surprise. At this moment, she would agree to whatever Master Ningyin said.
She diligently pulled up the quilt for Ning Yin Zhenren and put away the teacups on the table for her. Yuxiu then took them away carefully.
On the bed, Master Ning Yin narrowed his eyes slightly, watching the maid leave, a smile unconsciously appearing at the corners of his lips. As long as this maid stood on his side, things would be much easier.
Even if the Princess of England was taboo about other people, she would definitely not be taboo about her personal maid.
I originally thought that it would be hard to say if it was the maid named Yuchun, but I didn't expect that it was the one named Yuxiu. This is great. Compared with a maid who has the idea of climbing up, who is loyal to her master, everyone knows who to choose.
The weather was good today, and my head really hurt. I had been sick for a few days before coming back. Now I entered the Prince of Ying's Palace as I wished. After relaxing, Master Ning Yin's breathing became steady, and he fell asleep...
