Chapter two hundred and forty-one, temporary change of maid
Along the way, Qin Yueyi lifted the car curtain from time to time and secretly looked at Xu Cheng, feeling happy and proud. When she came to Beijing before, her mother had repeatedly told her that the main purpose of entering the capital this time was to marry her cousin.
Now my aunt is very satisfied with herself. Now she is missing her cousin. Thinking that there is a vixen in Beijing who actually seduces her cousin and even goes on a blind date with others, she is not angry at all. She must tear off this vixen today.
I have the shame to show my cousin who is really good.
After today, my cousin will be hers. My aunt said she would send someone to propose marriage as soon as possible...
Xu Cheng, who was on the horse, frowned tightly. He originally didn't believe the letter thrown in from the backyard, but now he had to believe it.
He thought that his mother also liked Yu Zhuqing, but it turned out that not only did his mother not like it, but the previous marriage proposal to Xuanping Hou Mansion on his behalf was all fake. No one proposed marriage to Yu Zhuqing at all. Now she is even more confused because she has never proposed marriage.
When someone comes to propose marriage, an official matchmaker comes to act as a matchmaker for her.
Today is the day to meet each other, and the place to meet is Qingyu Tower.
And my mother actually knew all this, otherwise it would not have been such a coincidence that my mother would have asked me to take my cousin to Qingyu Tower today.
The time and place were right. It was clearly her mother who allowed her to witness Yu Zhuqing's blind date with her own eyes.
The horse's reins tightened in his hands, and he felt bitter in his heart. If he had known that his mother didn't like Yu Zhuqing, how could he have given this marriage to his mother wholeheartedly?
Her mother clearly said that it would be great for the two families to get married. She also said that Yu Zhuqing's father saved her own father back then, so she should be grateful. If she could marry Yu Zhuqing, it would be considered as fulfilling the fate of the two families.
He heard what his mother said at that time and believed it. He never thought that his mother actually didn't like Yu Zhuqing, and the so-called marriage proposal was just one-sided words from her.
He stretched out his hand to cover his chest. Xu Cheng's face showed a sharp look. He wanted to see who wanted to frame Yu Zhuqing today...
The carriage is ready.
When Yu Xijiao came over, Yu Zhuqing was already waiting in front of the carriage. She was wearing light lotus-colored clothes that Yu Xijiao specially picked for her. When she saw Yu Xijiao coming over, her expression relaxed a little.
"Third sister."
"Sister Lao, I've been waiting for a long time." Yu Xijiao smiled slightly, and her eyes fell on the maid behind Yu Zhuqing. It was not Caiyun, but a maid similar in stature to Caiyun. She had a pretty appearance, especially a pair of almond eyes, which looked a little...
Yu Xijiao had met Yu Zhuqing before, a second-class maid named Yun Huan.
"I just came here not long ago." Yu Zhuqing smiled.
"Sister, why didn't you bring Caiyun with you today?" Yu Xijiao looked at Yun Huan calmly.
"When I got up in the morning, Caiyun was anxious to pack my things and accidentally dropped them in front of the steps." Yu Zhuqing said softly.
"Did you fall this morning?" Yu Xijiao blinked her bright eyes and looked at the sky in surprise, "Sister, did you get up early in the morning to clean it up?"
"Just now, it wasn't actually early in the morning, it was already dawn." Yu Zhuqing said, "This girl has always been reckless. I don't know what she stepped on today, and she fell quite hard, so let her have a good rest in the house.
Bring Yunhuan over."
Yun Huan is Yu Zhuqing's second-class maid, and she is also the only second-class maid in Yu Zhuqing's place. The first-class maid Caiyun is always with Yu Zhuqing. When Yu Zhuqing goes to the nunnery to rest and prepare for the worship ceremony, Caiyun also follows, leaving behind
The second-class maid, after the master and servant left, was actually the highest-class maid in the yard.
Yu Xijiao had never noticed this in the past, but now that she saw this maid, she still didn't understand anything, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. She was indeed a good maid.
"My slave Yun Huan has met the third girl." Yun Huan came out from behind Yu Zhuqing and greeted Yu Xijiao respectfully.
"You will follow my eldest sister today so that you can serve me well." Yu Xijiao warned.
"My slave will definitely do her best." Yun Huan said hurriedly, his behavior was extremely respectful, and it was obvious that he took Yu Xijiao's words to heart.
"You have never served in front of eldest sister before, now you have this opportunity, take advantage of it." Yu Xijiao smiled.
"My slave understands." Yun Huan hurriedly lowered his head.
Yu Xijiao smiled faintly and held Mingyue's hand to get into the carriage, and then Yu Zhuqing followed her into the carriage.
Yun Huan followed and was about to go up, but Mingyue pushed him slightly on his shoulder. He stumbled and took a few steps back before he stood firm.
Mingyue's eyes were fixed on Yun Huan, and she threatened coldly: "You are the maid next to the eldest girl. You should serve the eldest daughter well. Everything is based on the safety of the eldest daughter. If... there is a slight mistake, there will be something wrong.
Heavy responsibility."
One is a first-class maid, and the other is a second-class maid. Yun Huan did not dare to contradict, and whispered: "Sister Mingyue said that."
"Our girl is the most beloved daughter of the Marquis, and the most beloved granddaughter of Princess An and the eldest daughter. Although you are traveling with the eldest girl this time, don't forget about our girl's safety. If our girl has any
Mistake, even if you die a thousand times, it won't be enough."
The bright moon has a profound meaning.
One maid had an accident in the morning, and it was replaced by another maid. Originally it was nothing, but coupled with what might happen to Yu Zhuqing today, this matter had an ulterior motive.
But it would be useless to change a few more maids. Mingyue said these words now, and her intention to beat this maid was obvious. After all, the girl she wanted to serve was no longer an older girl.
When Mingyue was teaching Yun Huan a lesson, Qingyue had been waiting by the side. After she finished her lesson and watched her get on the carriage first, Qingyue came over and said to Yun Huan with a smile: "Sister Mingyue is straight-tempered, what she said is wrong.
Don’t be angry where you are.”
"Slave... I don't dare." Yun Huan lowered his head.
"Don't say you don't dare, just remember that there are some people you can't offend. I heard that the two nuns who were beside Madam before us were also very consistent in the backyard before our girl came. Now look at it..." Qingyue clicked her tongue.
He said twice, "One was killed by the eldest princess with a stick, and the other was killed by the Marquis. Although he didn't die at the time, he basically lost his life afterwards."
Yun Huan was startled, and subconsciously tightened the handkerchief in his hand. How could the people in the house not know about these two nuns? They were both Madam's personal stewards and the most confidant people around Madam. They were usually in Yun Huan's house.
In front of Huan, these two people are unattainable.
"Slave...slave understands." Yun Huan whispered, sweating on her vest. Fortunately, she was not dealing with the third girl. If she had to deal with the third girl, she would not agree even if she died.
And it's not "coping". In fact, she just led the way and talked. It can't be considered as dealing. She is just a useless second-class maid. It is her first time to work as a first-class maid, which is inevitably a bit awkward.
If you make mistakes, you cannot blame yourself.
After thinking about this, I felt a little relieved. After following Qingyue into the carriage, I sat down beside Yu Zhuqing in a decent manner.
The two sisters rode in the same carriage. Yu Ruiwen originally wanted to arrange two carriages for them, but Yu Xijiao specifically refused, saying that the two sisters would get closer if they sat together, and it would seem more deserted if they each took a carriage.
Hearing what she said, Yu Ruiwen didn't insist. He was also happy that his eldest daughter was close to his third daughter. For so many years, he had neglected his third daughter and his eldest daughter, and he felt guilty.
The carriage went all the way out of the city. The two sisters in the carriage were talking and laughing, but it didn't feel like the time was too long.
The three maids were all very well-behaved. Not only did Yun Huan say nothing, Mingyue and Qingyue also sat aside in a well-behaved manner.
Yun Huan secretly glanced at Ming Yue, who was so arrogant just now. Such a big maid was now very well-behaved and did not dare to say a word. This shows that the third girl is really powerful and she must not offend the third girl.
The carriage left the city and went all the way to the official road, and then turned from the official road to a main road. The main road looked not smaller than the official road, and was very smooth. As we walked in, it didn't take long before we saw a big archway with three letters on it.
The calligraphy of "Qingyulou" is like a flying dragon and a phoenix. You can tell at a glance that it was written by a famous artist.
After passing the archway, I saw another archway, and passed several archways before arriving at a parking lot.
There are very large parking lots on both sides of the road. There are already several carriages parked here. The carriage of the Marquis of Xuanping found a place to stop.
As soon as it stopped, a woman came over and said, "But is it the carriage of the Marquis Xuanping?"
"Exactly!" The coachman hurriedly pulled the horse's reins.
"Our old lady has been waiting for a long time." The old lady smiled.
The carriage stopped, and the three maids got off the carriage first, followed by Yu Xijiao and Yu Zhuqing. The two sisters got off the carriage one after the other.
"Miss Yu, Miss Yu." The mother-in-law saluted.
"Where is Mrs. Qian?" Yu Xijiao asked.
"Please two girls, please follow the servants over, in front of the pavilion not far from the entrance." The old woman responded.
The two sisters looked at each other, and Yu Zhuqing said softly: "Excuse me, mama."
"Miss Yu, you're welcome." The mother-in-law looked at the two girls from the Xuanping Marquis Mansion without leaving any trace. In fact, she could still tell them apart.
The one who is taller and more stable is Miss Yu, who is going on a blind date today. The other one is a little shorter. She looks immature. Although her face is delicate, she still has a bit of childishness. This one is talented.
She is the real legitimate daughter of Marquis Xuanping, Miss Yu San.
The Qian Mansion and the Xuanping Marquis Mansion are related by marriage, so they know the situation of several girls in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion very well.
The mother-in-law led the two of them over, and the carriage stopped and waited.
As expected, Mrs. Qian was waiting in an octagonal pavilion not far from the main entrance of Qingyu Tower. The pavilion faced the water. There were willow branches planted on the side facing the water, and the green leaves of the tree dropped down and fluttered in the wind.
In the pavilion, Mrs. Qian was sitting inside enjoying the scenery. The two people came in and bowed to Mrs. Qian first.
"I've met the old lady." Yu Xi stepped forward with a sweet smile and bowed.
Yu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment, then also called her: "I've met the old lady."
Logically speaking, both Yu Xijiao and Yu Zhuqing should call Mrs. Qian their grandmother. In fact, their call is a bit contemptuous.
The maids behind Mrs. Qian, the mother-in-law looked at the two sisters with a somewhat unkind look.
There was a woman who wanted to correct her as soon as her feet moved.
Mrs. Qian waved her hand and said with a smile: "You two ladies are very polite. I am old and not in good health. I rarely have the energy to go to your house. If there is any negligence in the past, please don't blame you two."
Blame grandma."
Mrs. Qian is the wife of Marquis Xuanping, so she was called "grandmother" in response.
"That's what the old lady said." Yu Xijiao smiled slightly, "Originally, I should call the old lady my grandmother, but my grandmother said that my biological mother is my legitimate wife. She grew up in Jiangnan for so many years. If I rashly call someone else
Grandma, disrespectful to my grandma."
In one sentence, he mentioned Princess An and the eldest daughter, and also mentioned Mrs. Xie, specifically pointing out that his biological mother was the real Mrs. Xuanping Hou.
This was not said very politely, and it was somewhat provocative.
Yu Zhuqing pinched the handkerchief uneasily. Everything she said was wrong in this situation. She originally wanted to block some scoldings for her third sister.
"You can call me whatever you want. Mrs. Xie from Jiangnan should be respected. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely meet Mrs. Xie." Mrs. Qian didn't have the slightest bit of displeasure on her face. She spoke calmly and even came to the rescue for Yu Zhuqing after speaking.
, "Since your third sister is called like that, you should call her the same."
"Thank you, Mrs. Qian." Yu Zhuqing breathed a sigh of relief. She just called her the same as the third sister because she was older and if something was wrong, she would definitely scold her and not blame the third sister.
"If you say thank you or not, why should one family talk to each other?" Mrs. Qian said kindly and asked the two of them to sit down first.
After Yu Xijiao sat down and looked around, she just came from Jiangnan and it was her first time here in Qingyu Tower.
The pavilion became quiet, and several people enjoyed the scenery in silence.
For a long time, Yu Xijiao couldn't sit still. She raised her eyes and looked ahead. The scenery there should be better.
"It's still early. The third girl wants to take a walk. I'll wait here with your eldest sister." Mrs. Qian saw that Yu Xijiao couldn't sit still, and suggested with a smile, "We came a little early today, maybe we can still
It will take a while to come over, and I have asked my mother-in-law to wait in the parking lot."
This is still at the door. Although the scenery is good, it is not the best place. You can just take a look for a while. If you wait here all the time, the young girl will not be able to hold on.
The main thing today is Yu Zhuqing. She can't leave, but Yu Xijiao doesn't have such big restrictions.
After hearing what Mrs. Qian said, Yu Xijiao stood up...
