347. Chapter 347: The Curious Old Slave

The housekeeper agreed, and seeing that the two old slaves and maids had cleaned up the tables and chairs, he withdrew with the two old slaves and maids, and the footsteps quickly disappeared in the wind and rain, although they were all slaves who had been staying in the farm, there was really no negligence in this rule.

One of the two old slaves who followed the butler walked a little slowly, and the butler walked for a while and looked back, only to find that the man had lagged behind them, and stopped and waited for a while.

"Why are you walking so slowly?" The housekeeper smiled and said, "Usually he is also a quick man with his hands and feet, and he sees his grandson chasing after him like flying, how can this suddenly be slow." ”

The backward old slave seemed to be thinking about something, and looked back at the house where Quan Huan and Rong Qingyi were staying, and thought for a long time before he asked with some hesitation: "This Quan Gongzi comes here from time to time, and I heard the prince say that it is a nephew of the prince who is outcast, but this girl who came with himβ€”β€”"

"What's wrong?" The housekeeper smiled and said not very enthusiastically, "Look at that girl is not very old, she looks very beautiful and cute, her words and demeanor are generous and decent, she seems to be the daughter of a rich family when she is dressed, and she is dressed in red makeup and all the best clothes, maybe she is the new favorite of Quan Gongzi." Quan Gongzi should have married a wife and had children, and he is a dignified person, besides, no matter how wandering he is, he is also the nephew of Prince Jian, and it is normal to have a woman by his side, but I am afraid that I don't want Prince Jian to know, and when I arrived at the farm, he told me not to tell Prince SΓΉ about bringing that girl here. ”

After listening to the butler's words, the old slave frowned, looked at the companion standing beside her, and asked in a somewhat hesitant and uncertain tone, "Do you think that girl looks familiar?" ”

The old slave nodded, "Well, it seems that I have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it, even if I have seen it, I am afraid it has been many years ago, it should be in the capital." ”

"That's right!" The old slave immediately slapped her face, "I'll just say, I always feel a little familiar, but I just can't remember where to see it, you said that you saw it in the capital, I immediately remembered who she was, it's been more than ten years, she hasn't changed her appearance, it's still the same good-looking, it stands to reason that she should have a 25 or 6 now, but look, it's seventeen or eighteen, yes, it's her!" ”

The housekeeper was stunned, "25, 6?" Are you sure, I look at the most eighteen or nineteen, or even smaller, I look mature and introverted, and my words are very cautious, but I don't look big at all, who is she? ”

"You haven't been to the capital, you are young to stay in this farm, my sister and I came from the capital, when we left, the prince's little son had not yet married, it seems that the princess has chosen a girl's family for the little son, the day I left, I happened to see the girl and her mother go to the palace of King Jian to eat, is now with the whole son of the girl's house." The old slave maid glanced at her companion, then looked at the housekeeper, and said in an affirmative tone, "I will never be mistaken, it is also a coincidence, one of the slaves and maids who served her is still my fellow countryman, married to a servant of this girl's family, we all call her Qin, she is a very good-tempered person, and she has served this girl since she was a child." Well, I remembered, this girl's surname is Rong, she is the daughter of the richest family in the capital, and later I heard that she was married to a little boy, but she has not been loved by the little boy, which is also the rumor I heard when I occasionally returned to the capital at that time, and then my father-in-law also came here, and I never returned to the capital, so I don't know what happened later. ”

The old slave maid who was with her thought for a while, and said: "Well, yes, I also remembered, the girl who came with Quan Gongzi is indeed surnamed Rong, it seems that her name is Rong Qingyi, the youngest daughter of the richest man in the capital, Rong Ding and his wife, and there are two elder brothers, who are married to the little son of our prince." According to the rules, she should be our master. Why did she come here with Quan Gongzi carrying Prince Jane, Princess Jane and her husband, and Quan Gongzi still didn't let you mention it to the prince? ”

The housekeeper was also stunned, he stayed in the farm for a long time, and there was nothing to do, as long as he took care of the farm, he didn't bother to pay attention to anything else, and he was not curious about what happened in King Jian's mansion, Quan Huan was brought to the farm by Prince Jian more than two years ago, and told them that this Quan Gongzi was his nephew who was exiled, and this Quan Gongzi was also very respectful and obedient to King Jian, and he always called him 'uncle'.

Yes, if it was really the wife of the little prince under the knee of Prince Jian who came with Quan Gongzi, how could she follow Quan Gongzi here? And according to the meaning of Prince Jian, the fact that Quan Huan is his nephew and who occasionally comes to live here is to hide from Princess Jane.

"It doesn't look like a couple sneaked out." The old slave glanced at her companion and said in a speculative tone, "But there must be something in this, otherwise, why hide it from the prince?" ”

The housekeeper hesitated, "Forget it, it's not something we can control, if it's really Master Rong, I don't think she has any fear and escape meaning, the two don't live together, they each chose a courtyard, this Master Rong looks very weak, but his words and deeds are very measured, listening to the meaning of Quan Gongzi, it seems that he can't know the girl who came with him, that is, the meaning of Master Rong." Before dinner, I walked around the farm with Master Rong, and I always felt that this Master Rong seemed to have been here, you don't know, when I accompanied her on the road, she could avoid some decorations without looking at her feet, and even some stones buried in the ground that only exposed a corner, she could also avoid them without looking. ”

The old slave and maid listened inattentively, and said hesitantly: "I am not sure, I am different from you, you have not served the princess, you were a slave who followed the prince, and you came to the farm early, I am the slave and maid on the princess's side, and the princess has always been kind to me." This is a matter related to the reputation of King Jian's mansion, I have to inquire quietly, that Quan Gongzi will come occasionally, he is a proud and unspeakable lord, and even the prince's nephew who is in exile cannot bring his cousin's wife out. Besides, if it is really the master of Rong, from the richest family in the capital, he should have a shame and a rule to follow since he was a child, and there must be a problem in this. ”

"Yes." Her companion nodded immediately, the days of the farm are simple and stable, but it is also a little boring, this is old, occasionally teasing the grandson, most of the time still stays in the farm, the sesame big thing is eager to become a watermelon, not to mention that this is a matter related to the private affairs of King Jian's mansion, and he is a little more curious, and he can't wait to make it clear Chu Cai's willingness, "The old sister is right, we are slaves, we have to share the worries for the master, I will help you, we will quietly inquire from the side." ”

The housekeeper thought about it and hesitated a little, but still nodded, "You old sisters should also be leisurely, don't be too direct, I can also see that this Quan Gongzi is a little evasive about Master Rong, and Master Rong is not afraid of him, but Master Rong did not tell me about her identity, I am afraid that there is also some hidden feelings." By the way, we have to send someone to the capital to inquire about the situation in King Jian's mansion, let's not be curious for a while and disturb the masters' ideas, maybe this is also the master's plan, maybe there is something in the capital. ”

"Let my family go." The older old slave maid immediately said, "It just so happens that the farm has some fresh fruits and vegetables, and I used this excuse to let him send them, and he will occasionally run to the capital, so as not to let Quan Gongzi and Master Rong suspect that they will not let them know when they leave, and if they ask, they will say that they just sent the things from the farm according to the rules, and they will come back when they go." ”

"Okay, I'll go and get close to Master Rong and see if I can find out something." The old slave and maid immediately said, "Butler, you just hide it from the whole son, we don't say anything, just inquire between words, if there is really something, we can also help the princess and princess, if there is nothing wrong, it is the plan of the masters, let's pretend not to know." ”

The butler nodded, it was true that the days on the farm were too boring, and it was suddenly a little exciting, so that I forgot for a moment that it might be dangerous.

Rong Qingyi walked from the dining room to the corridor, the flowers and plants outside were really cute, and she was happy when she looked at it, if she didn't want to save her father and mother, maybe she would ask Jian Ye for a favor, and give her this farm so that she could stay here and live a life without fighting, although at the end of the dream, Jiang Shiwei almost destroyed the entire farm, but it could not eliminate the good memory of the farm in her heart.

"Master Rong." One of the two old slaves who left just now came back with a food box, and it was raining outside, so naturally he couldn't bring the tea directly, so he put the teapot and teacup in the food box, and saw Rong Qingyi standing alone in the corridor, immediately put away the umbrella in his hand, walked to Rong Qingyi with the food box, and said in a very respectful tone, "It's raining outside, it's better to sit in the house." ”

Rong Qingyi was distracted, but when she heard the words of the old slave and maid, she was slightly stunned, and subconsciously glanced at Quan Huan sitting in the room, there was the sound of rain, and the voice of the old slave and maid was not loud, especially the previous one, it was even slighter, and Quan Huan could not hear it.

"Okay." Rong Qingyi said softly, ignoring the first three words.

How did this old slave know her surname was 'Rong'? Quan Huan probably didn't talk to the housekeeper, because the housekeeper still called her 'girl' before.

The old slave saw from the corner of her eye that when Rong Qingyi heard her call her 'Master Rong' just now, she immediately looked at the reaction of the whole son in the house, her expression seemed to be a little surprised, but she didn't express it between her words, and even deliberately ignored her own title, and when she spoke to herself, her tone was still calm and gentle, and her eyes were calm and indifferent.
