Hongyu and Hongluan were bored when they saw Ye Qinglan and others coming back and hurriedly greeted them.
These days, Ye Qinglan takes Ruixue and Guiyuan with her wherever she goes. The two of them stay in the yard all day long. Not to mention how boring it is.
Hong Luan was feeling better, but Hong Yu was full of dissatisfaction.
She is the first-class maid next to Mr. Xue. In the past, no matter where Ms. Xue went, she would never leave her. Now it is good, as soon as she changed her master, she was locked up in the "cold palace". No, she had to be with Ye Qinglan tonight
Say it is impossible.
Hongyu made up her mind, deliberately pushed forward and said with a smile: "Miss, the two mothers from Huancui Pavilion just sent Zhang Qin over, saying that it was given to you by Miss Six. I don't know Miss Sixth's intentions, so I don't dare to do anything without it."
I would like to put the piano in the guest room for now."
Ye Qinglan raised her eyes and hummed casually. She walked into the room and as soon as she sat down, Hongyu rushed over and poured a cup of hot tea. Ruixue and Guiyuan were doing nothing.
Hong Luan took a step slower, feeling secretly sad, but did not dare to fight with Hong Yu, and silently stepped aside.
Ye Qinglan smiled and held the teacup casually: "Hongyu, do you have something to talk to me about?" To be courteous for nothing is to commit adultery or to steal. This sentence could not be more suitable for Hongyu.
Hong Yu took advantage of the situation and responded: "Miss Mingjian, I do have some things that I don't like to say."
Ye Qinglan raised her eyebrows and asked slowly: "What exactly do you want to say?"
Hongyu coughed: "Please forgive me for speaking frankly. The young lady is unwell and needs careful and steady care. I feel that Guiyuan is a little too young to take on such an important responsibility..."
Guiyuan's face was flushed from suppressing pain, and her big round eyes were about to burst out with sparks.
Ye Qinglan interrupted Hongyu with a faint smile: "According to your opinion, who should I bring with me?"
Hongyu puffed up her chest without any shame and said confidently: "I have been serving my wife all the time. I dare not say anything else. I am much smarter than Guiyuan."
Guiyuan was so angry that smoke was almost coming out of his nose. If it hadn't been for Ye Qinglan's presence, he might have started a quarrel with Hongyu on the spot.
Ye Qinglan gave Guiyuan a comforting look, and then looked at Hongyu calmly: "What you said does make sense. Logically speaking, I should take you with me..."
A hint of joy flashed in Hongyu's eyes. Before the smile could spread at the corner of her lips, Ye Qinglan's next words were like a basin of cold water being poured down on her: "...but I just like longan, but not so much."
like you."
Guiyuan's face suddenly turned gloomy and he grinned.
Hongyu's face was both red and blue, and her complexion was extremely beautiful. The boss kept his words to this point. He only didn't say directly that I just hate you and don't want to see you. She is just a maid, so what if there is someone behind her to support her?
?
Ye Qinglan smiled and admired Hong Yu's ugly face, and then said slowly: "I might as well talk about it today. As long as you are honest and calm, I will not deliberately embarrass you. Don't even think about making any plans behind my back.
It will be too late to regret by then." Those two words were light and heavy, but they weighed heavily on Hong Yu's heart.
Hongyu gritted her teeth and said, "My wife told the slaves and Hongluan to take good care of the young lady, but the young lady refused to let the servants serve her. If this reaches the ears of the madam, the madam will probably think that the young lady does not take the madam seriously."
Is this a threat to her?
Ye Qinglan's smile did not diminish, and her eyes turned cold: "If you want to file a complaint, you can go back to Zhengzhou now, and I will never stop you."
How could Hongyu have the courage? She just wanted to use Xue's prestige to intimidate Ye Qinglan. Seeing that Ye Qinglan didn't buy it at all, she had no choice but to wink at Hongluan, hinting that Hongluan was helping.
Hong Luan was not willing to wade into this muddy water, so he quickly lowered his head.
Hongyu felt depressed, but she had to lower her head to apologize: "Please calm down, Miss. I have no such intention."
"No matter what wishful thinking you are planning, I only advise you. You must recognize who your current master is." Ye Qinglan's eyes became brighter and more striking, like a sword unsheathed, its sharp edge revealed at this moment.
Hongyu was completely defeated, and she was so tired that she no longer dared to talk too much.
At this moment, the mother who was in charge of delivering food in the big kitchen came over. Ye Qinglan casually asked Hongyu Hongluan to go to the dining room to prepare the food. After sending away the two people who were in the way, he called Guiyuan over and said a few words of comfort: "Guiyuan, Don't listen to Hongyu. In my heart, you are the smartest and most obedient person."
"Really?" Guiyuan's little face suddenly lit up, her eyes full of joy and expectation: "Miss, do you really think so? Don't you think this slave is clumsy?"
Ye Qinglan smiled softly, with unconscious connivance in her voice: "How could I dislike you? It's too late for me to like you! No matter where I go from now on, you will always take care of me."
Ruixue's eyes felt hot as she watched from the side. Ye Qinglan seemed gentle, but in fact she was not easy to approach. Although she was highly regarded by the young lady, who treated her well, she had never looked at her with such gentle and kind eyes...
Guiyuan was so excited that she didn't know what to say, so she simply knelt down and kowtowed a few times: "Miss, I'm a stupid person and don't know how to speak nicely. From now on, I will serve you with all my heart and will never betray you." ." The vows made are simple and innocent.
Ye Qinglan nodded with a smile and helped Guiyuan to stand up with her own hands.
After dinner, Hongyu and Hongluan went to the kitchen to boil hot water. After Ye Qinglan took a shower and changed clothes, she sat in front of the dressing mirror looking refreshed.
Guiyuan carefully wiped her hair with a dry towel, and stopped until every strand of hair was dry. However, she still refused to leave. She diligently made the bed again.
Ruixue held back her words and wanted to talk to Ye Qinglan, but Guiyuan refused to leave. She couldn't help but feel anxious secretly. She coughed and said: "Guiyuan, you can leave this to me. You have been tired for the whole day. Go back to the house earlier." Rest!"
Guiyuan responded loudly: "I'm not tired at all."
…
Ruixue glanced at Ye Qinglan for help. Ye Qinglan suppressed her laughter and said gently: "I'm a little tired and want to rest early. Go back and rest quickly. Don't get up early tomorrow and stay up late for me. I can't trust Hong." Yu Hongluan and the others, it’s best to leave this matter to you.”
Guiyuan responded happily and finally resigned.
Miss is so cunning! Ruixue sighed secretly in her heart, specially closed the doors and windows, and then walked to Ye Qinglan and whispered: "Miss, I have already inquired about what you told me yesterday."
Although Ye Qinglan had already expected that Ruixue would be rewarded, she still couldn't help but get excited when she heard these words: "Is it true? Who did you get it from?"
Ruixue responded: "I got it from Ruyue."
Ruyue? A figure of a maid quickly flashed in Ye Qinglan's mind.
She has an excellent memory, and people she has met once will be imprinted in her mind. What's more, this Ruyue is Ye Qingrou's personal maid, and there are quite a few opportunities to meet her on weekdays. When Ruixue mentioned this, she immediately got the impression: "Yes.
My eighth cousin’s personal maid!”
Ruixue smiled and nodded: "It's her. I deliberately talked to her today, and she asked a lot of things. I will tell you now..."
"Wait a minute," Ye Qinglan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Is she suspicious?"
Ruixue thought for a while and said with certainty: "Probably not." After a pause, she explained with a slight blush: "This slave pretended to be in love with Mr. Gu. She only thought that I wanted to know about him, and she didn't suspect it at all.
On the lady."
Ye Qinglan felt relieved and listened to Ruixue's gossip.
There are so many glorious past events about Gu Xinian that there is no need to recount them one by one. In short, this is an aristocratic young man who has been favored by heaven. He was born with unparalleled beauty and a proud family background, but he also gave birth to a child that is difficult for ordinary people to match.
He has a smart mind. Reading is as easy as eating cabbage.
There is naturally no shortage of admirers for such a young man. Almost all the noble ladies in the capital blush at the mention of his name. Even Luo Miaoyin, the daughter of Prime Minister Luo, is in love with him.
It's a pity that Gu Xinian can't tolerate any girl in his eyes, because he likes someone else.
Having said this, Ruixue paused deliberately.
Ye Qinglan became excited after hearing this, and quickly asked: "Don't be too pretentious, who does Gu Xinian like?" It's really curious. What would the woman Gu Xinian fall in love with look like?
"I heard from Ruyue that Mr. Gu likes a distant cousin who grew up with him, named Shen Qiuyu."
Distant cousin...
Hearing this answer, Ye Qinglan was slightly disappointed. This kind of story is not new at all, it is too old-fashioned. Either a cousin, a cousin, or a distant cousin...
Ruixue hurriedly smiled and said: "The exciting part is yet to come! Miss, you will know if you listen patiently."
Ye Qinglan smiled, picked up a small snack and stuffed it into her mouth, took a sip of the fragrant jasmine tea, and then continued to listen to the story with great interest.
Speaking of Shen Qiuyu, it really takes a lot of words. She is the grand-niece of Mrs. Dingguo's biological sister... This relationship is very complicated. To put it simply, she is Gu Xinian's distant cousin.
Shen Qiuyu lost her father when she was young and lived in the Dingguo Palace when she was eight years old. She was the same age as Gu Xinian. The two were childhood sweethearts and grew up together. They had already made an oath of love for a long time. If one is not you, you will not marry, and the other is not a king.
Don't marry.
"Wait a minute," curious baby Ye Qinglan raised her hand and asked, "Is this Shen Qiuyu beautiful?" Women always pay unusual attention to appearance.
Rui Xue smiled and said, "I've never seen her, so I don't know if she is beautiful or not. However, from Ru Yue's tone, Shen Qiuyu should be an extremely beautiful woman. Moreover, she has outstanding piano skills and is good at composing poems. She is famous all over the capital.
A talented woman." How could the woman Gu Xinian likes be mediocre?
What a talented and beautiful couple. It's a pity that they didn't become a couple. What a pity!
Ye Qinglan sighed secretly.
