Is there anyone serving me on the farm? Qu Moying thought as he walked, but he couldn't remember.
Aunt Miao and Yuchun were also very confused.
The doctor who treated him was the one he had hired in his previous life to treat Qu Moying, but he was always elusive and was not in the manor at the moment. The nanny was old and in poor health, so she would not come out either. Who else would come to see him
The master and his servant came in with bewildered looks on their faces, and were stunned when they saw a pretty maid who was about fifteen or sixteen years old!
"Hello, young lady!" The voice was a little shrill, and seemed a little different from the original person, but upon careful listening, there seemed to be no difference.
"Who are you?" Qu Moying was very sure that he had never seen her before. He waved his hand and Aunt Miao immediately retreated and stood guard at the door.
"Your servant greets Miss Qu Si." The maid suddenly changed to a sharper voice and said.
This time even Yuchun heard it and his face changed drastically.
Qu Moying was very familiar with such a sharp voice. Adding on the fact that her way of greeting was different from that of women, Qu Moying took a breath of cold air. This... This is actually a eunuch
"Miss, don't be nervous. I am the prince's servant, sent here specially to serve you. From now on, I will be your maid!" The eunuch lowered his voice. After lowering his voice, he really sounded like a woman with a slightly shrill voice. He was not very eye-catching. If you didn't know his identity, you really couldn't tell whether he was a man or a woman for a moment.
So the Prince of Yun sent a eunuch to himself
Qu Moying didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She had imagined what kind of person the Prince of Yun would send her, but she never thought that it would be a eunuch.
"Master said that if the young lady is not satisfied with the job, she can just replace it. This servant Yudong happens to be a couple with Sister Yuchun. We are both young lady's maids in the manor. Young lady used to live in the manor, which is also the most remote place. There are not many people coming here on weekdays. Just say that this servant is the same as Madam Miao, who was also rescued by the young lady in the past. After that, she was unwilling to leave because she had only been here for a few days and didn't know much about the manor."
Yudong reported with a smile.
This was really true. In order for her to "recuperate" well, a courtyard was built early on in the farm. It was very remote, and she lived there with a few people. When she first went there, there were many maids and old women, but later they all used their connections to come to Yu, so there were fewer and fewer people serving her.
In the end, only the wet nurse Gu Ma and Yuchun were left. Then came Miao Ma. To be specific, Yuchun was not a servant of the Qu family. It was Gu Ma who saw that this girl in the farm had lost her father and mother and was alone and pitiful, so she kept her. When she grew up a little, she followed Qu Moying.
Yudong’s excuses were very convincing, and he managed to make the matter perfect in such a short time, and he was not afraid of being investigated.
"Yudong, since you are here, you will serve me from now on." Qu Moying did not refuse and said with a smile. Since this person was sent by Prince Yun, he represented the Prince Yun's intentions.
"Yes, Miss, just tell me if you have anything in the future." Yu Dong said with a smile, and seemed very satisfied with her identity as a maid.
Qu Moying speechlessly took her back to the main room, showed her to the lady dowager, and explained her identity. Since she was an old friend of Qu Moying, and the name made it clear that she was someone who had served Qu Moying for a long time just like Yuchun, the lady dowager did not doubt it and asked Wu Ma to register her and she became one of the two maids serving Qu Moying.
As for the other maids and old women, the lady let Qu Moying choose them herself.
again
After returning to the warm room, Qu Moying sat down and thought for a while, then called Yuchun and Yudong over and gave them a few instructions, and then took Nanny Miao to check on Qianyue Residence.
It is indeed not very convenient for Madam to live here. She needs to move out first.
In fact, many items in the original main house did not need to be moved. Qu Moying didn't even let others move any of them, and left them as they were. It was said that every item here was carefully arranged by the Yu family, and some were even snatched by Yu Qingmeng from Qu Qiuyan, which was said to have made Qu Qiuyan unhappy at the time.
Now seeing that these carefully arranged things have become his, one can imagine how angry Yu is, so he decided to keep them.
That night, after a busy day, Qu Moying moved into Qianyueju and became the owner of Qianyueju.
The fact that Yudong showed up at this time was a good move before Qingmeng left...
That night, Yu Qingmeng left in a miserable state. Her brows were furrowed and her eyes were filled with tears. She looked extremely pitiful. She needed the support of a maid to walk and it was almost difficult for her to even move.
Only when she got into the carriage did she hide the pitiful look on her face, and her eyes were gloomy. Her only chance to enter the mansion now was the "child".
Her aunt had thought of many ways for her, but none of them worked. She suddenly realized this after eavesdropping on the two maids.
When she came out just now, she heard the low voices of two maids at the rockery. If she hadn't heard the words "Prince of Yongning Marquis", she would not have stopped.
In the past, when she went back, her aunt would send someone to see her off enthusiastically. But today, when she went back, her aunt was so cold that she didn't even send anyone to see her off.
The words of the two maids sounded very outrageous. If it were in the past, Yu Qingmeng would definitely punish them severely and act like a master and lady, but now, she just listened quietly for a while.
"Have you seen the Yongning Marquis's son today? He is so handsome! If he has a child in the future, it will definitely be handsome and wealthy!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? The son of the Yongning Marquis has no children. If he has children, the mother of the child must be extraordinary. I heard that in a Shangshu's mansion, the Shangshu's son has a concubine who is pregnant. I heard that the Shangshu's son has already chosen a wife."
"How embarrassing."
"What's there to be ashamed of? It's right to be able to enter. I heard that the girl's family background is also ordinary. She can enter the mansion as a concubine. In the future, when the main wife is gone, she will be the same as our wife."
"So, it's still good?"
"Of course it is a better way. Who doesn't care about children, especially the elderly at home..."
The voices of the two maids faded away. Yu Qingmeng's face turned pale and red, and it took a long time before he picked up his feet.
After getting on the carriage, Yu Qingmeng's face showed a hint of melancholy. She reached out and touched her belly. Was there a child? Probably not! But she wanted to have one now.
She wanted to go to Yongning Marquis's Mansion instead of He Mansion. Going to He Mansion would ruin her reputation and lead to death. But what if she went to Yongning Marquis's Mansion? Actually, there was still a chance!
"Let's go to the Yongning Marquis' Mansion!" Yu Qingmeng gritted her teeth and said, the longer the night, the more trouble there is. She couldn't just let it go at this time. She firmly believed that Xu Lipeng had feelings for her.
She has been waiting for him for so many years, and she even gave her body to him. He can't just let himself go like this.
"Miss, if you go to Yongning Marquis' Mansion now, the prince will not see you." Juxiang was very worried.
"If he doesn't see me, I will go and ask to see the wife of Marquis Yongning." Yu Qingmeng gritted her teeth. She had to see Xu Lipeng today no matter what. He couldn't be so heartless. She was already his. If he didn't want her, she would die in front of him.
Thinking this in my mind, I reached out and touched my lower abdomen again, as if there was really a child inside.
The carriage drove all the way and stopped at the back door of Yongning Marquis' Mansion. Juxiang went up and knocked on the door skillfully. The door opened. The old woman guarding the back door looked at Juxiang's familiar face and did not report to her. She directly let Yu Qingmeng, who was following behind Juxiang, go in.
After the people went in, the old woman carefully looked outside. It was already dark and there was no one else at the back door, so she closed the door again.
The prince had instructed before that when Miss Yu came, she should be let in directly to avoid being left outside and being discovered.
"Miss Yu, would you like me to take you there?" The old woman closed the door and asked in a flattering tone.
Yu Qingmeng shook her head. The fewer people who saw this kind of thing, the better. It was not far from here to Xu Lipeng's study, and she had been here many times in the past.
I took Juxiang to the study. It was getting dark, but fortunately I could still see the road clearly.
The study door was half open and no one else was seen. Yu Qingmeng calmed herself down and heard the voices of Xu Lipeng and the servant talking inside. She tried to calm herself down before slowly walking in.
The servant was reporting some matters to Xu Lipeng. When he heard the sound at the door, he turned around and looked at Yu Qingmeng in shock, almost unable to believe his eyes.
How could Miss Yu have the nerve to come here after such a thing happened to her
"Prince!" Yu Qingmeng came in and started crying. She walked delicately in front of Xu Lipeng, then slowly knelt down and hugged Xu Lipeng's legs, "Prince, save me... I... I was really framed. A man like He Dapan... How could I... I like him? I... I am the prince's person. Will the prince just watch me being forced to death?"
The servant took two steps back and retreated out with good eyesight. When he got outside, he saw Juxiang standing outside the door. The two of them were old acquaintances. He smiled at her, then took two steps back politely before standing still.
Juxiang also took two steps back and looked towards the door anxiously, but she no longer dared to move forward.
Xu Lipeng lowered his head and looked at Yu Qingmeng with an uncertain gaze, his face gloomy and irritable. According to him, he would stay away from Yu Qingmeng from now on, and whether Yu Qingmeng was dead or alive had nothing to do with him.
But he didn't expect that Yu Qingmeng would have the nerve to chase after him and let her sneak into his house before he could tell the maid guarding the back door.
It’s not easy to deal with this matter right now.
Originally, he did have his eyes on Yu Qingmeng, and was thinking of marrying her after breaking off the engagement, but later his mother said no, as Yu Qingmeng would not be of any help to him, but he still liked her, and if it really didn't work out, he could let her enter the mansion as a co-wife. After all, with Qu Moying's condition, it would be a great treat for her if he was willing to marry her, so what other conditions could the Qu Mansion refuse to agree to
Unexpectedly, things changed so quickly. First, he hadn't thought about canceling the engagement yet, but the Qu family actually wanted to cancel the engagement. Did Qu Moying not like him? This thought made him very angry.
He had never been the only one who had never liked anyone, and he was really angry that an ugly and blind woman didn't like him. Then his mother said something to him, and he thought, just marry her, she's just a decoration anyway, if she's good, let her stay for a few more years, if not, just destroy her, and no one will say anything.
As for Yu Qingmeng, she cannot be a co-wife, but she can be a concubine.
