Chapter 52: Female disguised as a male general

After eating a hearty breakfast, Mingyue looked at the shivering maid and said with a smile, "The service was good!"

The eldest maid immediately knelt down and said in panic, "This is a slave's business. What does the master want to eat for lunch? I asked the kitchen to prepare it in advance!"

To be able to become the maid of the Hou Mansion, she is naturally very thoughtful. When she saw that the second young master was satisfied with his meal, he immediately thought of a way to curry favor with him!

Mingyue smiled and said, "Just let them do what they are good at. What's going on in the house today?"

The girl secretly observed her, and when she saw that her expression was normal, she said, "Both the Marquis and the eldest son are ill, and now they have a fever so bad that they don't know who they are!"

Mingyue was startled and sneered, "I haven't made a serious move yet, what a waste!"

The maid secretly thought, the second young master is so bold that he even dares to beat his own father. The Marquis is injured and is frightened and angry. It’s strange that he doesn’t have a fever!

"Where are the Yue family? Are they still at home?" Mingyue asked again.

The maid hurriedly said, "It seems so!"

Mingyue sneered, "What a big face, I thought they would have walked away in despair, but they are still hanging on here, leading me to have a look!"

The urgent report from the border came three days later. I was just idle, so Mingyue decided to have some fun!

The maid hurriedly led the way to the guest room in the side courtyard!

After last night's fright, Mrs. Yue went back to her room to tidy up her belongings, and called the whole family in front of her to give them instructions!

With the Second Young Master’s tough tactics, it’s still a matter of debate whether they can continue to stay in the Hou Mansion!

He immediately decided to let the whole family stay in the guest room!

Grandma Yue couldn't bear to part with the prosperity of the Marquis Mansion, and complained, "Mom is too cautious. With Brother Ping here, who dares to chase us away!"

"You stupid thing! Is that second young master easy to mess with? He doesn't even care about his own father's face, let alone his brother who has a different mother!" the mother-in-law scolded angrily.

Grandma Yue curled her lips and said, "What second son? That's a fake. Even if the legitimate daughter is in charge of the house, she won't be in charge. Sooner or later it will be Brother Ping's!"

"Shut up! I don't want to live anymore!" the mother-in-law scolded!

Uncle Yue kicked his daughter-in-law, "You bitch, you dare to talk nonsense like this. If you really cause trouble, the second young master will not gain anything. The first one to be unlucky will be the Marquis!"

Grandma Yue was not convinced, she frowned and said, "He was the one who disguised himself as a man and deceived the Holy One. He is the one to blame!"

The mother-in-law said angrily, "Boss, your daughter-in-law needs to be well disciplined. She is getting more and more out of tune!"

Grandma Yue said angrily, "Mom, what did I say wrong?"

"Huh! Don't forget, it was the Marquis who announced that the baby was a boy, and the second son was still a baby sucking milk!"

"I heard that the Hua family came forward and wanted Your Majesty to confer the title of Crown Prince on the second young master. However, the Marquis temporarily postponed it because the child was young and was afraid of shortening his life. He said that he would invite him to be crowned Crown Prince when he reaches adulthood!"

The mother-in-law sighed, "Second Young Master has made a record in front of Your Majesty. If he really makes trouble, who will Your Majesty blame? Use your pig brain to think carefully!"

Grandma Yue was speechless. In the final analysis, Mr. Hou was more responsible. Even if Brother Ping was the only male in the Hou family, if Mr. Hou was accused, Brother Ping would not be able to make any money!

Feeling indignant, the family moved to the guest room!

Mingyue led the girl all the way to the guest room. Along the way, she saw his servants. Remembering his cruelty last night, they all softened their legs and knelt down!

The housekeeper knew this, but he didn't care about the two masters who were sick. He came running panting all the way, "Second Master, what are your orders?"

Mingyue hummed, "I heard that the Marquis and the eldest young master are both sick. Didn't they find a doctor to take a look at them?"

The housekeeper guessed his expression and said, "Please, it's all a skin injury. It will heal quickly with plaster!"

After a pause, he added, "In the middle of the night, both the Marquis and the eldest son had fevers. It may be due to the change in the weather that they were infected with the wind and cold!"

Listening to what the housekeeper racked his brains, Mingyue couldn't help but chuckle, "Why do you feel cold? Just say it's because you were scared by me!"

The housekeeper hurriedly lowered his head, "I don't dare!"

"I plan to meet my Yue family!" Mingyue continued walking.

The butler hurriedly said, "Slave, lead the way!"

Just when we reached the intersection, the mother-in-law, who heard the news, had already greeted her family and stood at the door to greet her in panic!

Mingyue looked at this family. They were not like before wearing gold and silver and looking restrained. They looked low-key!

He couldn't help but smile and said, "Your family has been living in the Hou Mansion for several years, right?"

The mother-in-law's voice trembled, "Back to the Second Young Master! It's been a few years! It was also the Marquis who was considerate and allowed us to stay in the Marquis Mansion temporarily! Don't worry, we will pack our bags and go back to the village!"

Mingyue chuckled, "Well, let's pay off the rent for the past few years!"

The rent? The Yue family was shocked.

The housekeeper observed her words and immediately understood what she meant, and hurriedly said, "You have lived in the Marquis Mansion for six full years. Although the Marquis is considerate, you and your family usually spend a lot of money. I will ask the accountant to calculate the compensation later.

!”

The mother-in-law was speechless. Grandma Yue lay down on the ground and cried, "Oh my God! How can we country people have any money? If I had known that I would have to pay money to come to the Marquis Mansion, I would never have come!"

Mingyue looked at her with a smile as she rolled around, and her mother-in-law quickly kicked her, "Shut up, you idiot!"

Uncle Yue rushed over, blocked his wife's mouth, and said with a smile, "Young Master, please forgive me, country wives have never seen the world!"

Mingyue snorted coldly, "The housekeeper has made a note of it and asked them to pay the amount immediately. We can stay here for a while. I haven't heard of anyone dragging their family and mouth to stay in other people's homes. Let's move out today!"

The mother-in-law had already been mentally prepared and hurriedly lowered her head, "Yes! Let's pack our luggage and move out now!"

She also thought about it. In the few years of Zhanghou Mansion, she had obtained a lot of silver. Even if she paid the rent, she would still have enough leftover to go back to the countryside and live a prosperous life.

Pian Mingyue sneered, "What good things can farmers in the countryside have? I'm afraid the Marquis paid for your luggage! Butler, you take care of it!"

The housekeeper knew that the Second Young Master would not spare the Yue family lightly, so he immediately nodded, "Second Young Master, don't worry, I will personally watch and won't let them lead the Hou Mansion every step of the way!"

Mingyue walked away, and the Yue family burst into tears. The second young master had a tough attitude. I'm afraid the accommodation expenses in the past few years will not be short!

Now they are not allowed to take away a needle and a thread, so how can they live!

The housekeeper is also aware of their difficulties, but compared to the in-laws who are acting like crazy, the second young master who always falls out is more difficult to deal with!

Immediately, they took off their clothes and drove them out. Of course, before leaving, they made them write IOUs and fingerprints!

Then he sent the IOU to Mingyue in a hurry, "Second Young Master, the Yue family can't get any money for the time being, so I asked them to write down an IOU of one thousand taels!"

Mingyue glanced at it, "It's only a thousand taels, it's an advantage for them!"

The butler shivered and knelt down, "It's my servant who failed to do things right. I'm going to chase them and ask them to write another IOU!"

Mingyue hummed, "Forget it, for the sake of the eldest son, let's do it like this. By the way, give this thousand taels of IOU to the eldest son. This is his mother's relative, let him pay for it!"
