Chapter 784: The Man Is Gone
After hearing this, Master Li's face couldn't help but sink a little, even if she was a good color, in the final analysis, she was just a lowly maid.
can be accepted by him as the sixth aunt, she should be grateful to herself, instead of refuting his face in public. So the tone was not good,
"I have made up my mind, in a few days, when my body is completely healed, I will accept you as the sixth aunt, I have asked Mrs. to prepare the courtyard for you, you will stay in the house for a few days."
Qiushui's eyes narrowed slightly, and I was afraid that this matter would take some effort to deal with.
Seeing Qiushui's silence, Master Li thought that she had acquiesced, and he only felt a burst of joy in his heart, at first he did accept her as a concubine because he wanted to repay his kindness, but I don't know when it started, he had a possessive psychology of this special woman.
The news that Master Li wanted to accept Qiushui as the sixth aunt quickly spread in the Li Mansion, the aunt's eyes were red, the maids were envious, and the subordinates began to flatter, in their opinion, it was a great honor for a maid to be regarded by the master.
What's more, although Qiu Shuiman is the sixth aunt, she is different from any lady and aunt, not only looking at her reputation in the house here, but more importantly, seeing who the lord loves the most.
Qiu Shuiman only took these as jokes and laughed them off.
When the grounded third aunt heard the news, she was immediately angry, a second lady was enough for her to have a headache, and at this time, a life-saving benefactor appeared, what place did she have in this Li Mansion.
"She agreed to be the master's concubine?" The third aunt rubbed her forehead irritably, and asked angrily.
The maid carefully slapped the third aunt's shoulder, and replied, "I heard that there is such a diΗn reluctance, but the lord has already spoken, and when he is well in a few days, he will officially accept her as a concubine, and the lord seems to value her very much." β
"Humph!" The third aunt snorted coldly, the matter of the fifth aunt has not been resolved, and there is another sixth aunt, "Did the second lady mention the matter of the fifth aunt in front of the master?" β
I didn't poison her last time, which was a miscalculation.
"It shouldn't be, I specially asked the person who served the master, I wonder if the second lady doesn't plan to tell the master about it."
"No way, she will never give up, maybe she is planning to take revenge on me in her heart." The third aunt's eyes became more and more ruthless, but now she is groundedββdΗngββdiΗnββε°ββ said, .Β€.β€os_(); Faced with the most favored second lady, she was helpless.
"Actually, it's not completely impossible, the second lady is the most favored at the moment, but it won't necessarily be in the future, if Qiushui really becomes a concubine, the biggest threat should be the second lady." The maid reminded at the right time.
The third aunt's eyes lit up, "What do you mean?" β
Master Li is now so interested in Qiushuiman, and he has a posture of favoring the second lady, and no woman will be willing to be robbed of the limelight by another woman, no matter who this woman is.
The third aunt who reacted couldn't help but smile coquettishly, she wasn't worried that the second lady would hold on to her affairs, but she could use the master's attention to Qiu Shui Man to provoke the two of them.
"You come here."
In front of Mr. Li's bed, the eldest lady and the fourth aunt and the fifth aunt took turns to take care of it, and the second lady was able to take a rest.
In the courtyard of the second lady, Xiaoyun was making tea for the second lady, and when she saw the autumn water coming, she looked up at her with a little mockery, and she had no good impression of the autumn water that was in full bloom.
"Madam is going to rest, you don't take care of the master, what are you doing here?"
"Xiaoyun! Don't be presumptuous. The second lady frowned slightly, and reprimanded helplessly, this Xiaoyun has been by her side for so long, and she is not comfortable yet.
Qiu Shuiman shook his head, but he didn't hear the bitter mockery in Xiaoyun's words.
"I have something to discuss with my wife." Qiushui opened his mouth lightly, and glanced at Xiaoyun who was making tea on the side, and the second lady understood, so she raised her hand and sent Xiaoyun away.
In the huge courtyard, only the two of them remained.
"Anyway, what are you looking for me?" The second lady poured herself a cup of tea and drank it carefully, and she couldn't see the love in her heart between her good-looking eyebrows.
Maybe it's Qiushuiman's illusion, the second lady seems to be a little more wary of her than before, but this is not important to her.
Qiushui sorted out his thoughts and said slowly, "Madame wants to come and know my mind, I don't want to marry my lord as a sixth aunt, and the reason why I promised to save her is because of Madame's promise to me." β
The second lady sighed lightly and put down the delicate teacup in her hand, "I promised you that you were good, but seeing the master's determination to accept you, I'm afraid I can't control it." β
Qiu Shuiman seemed to have expected that the second lady would say such a thing, and her face was still calm and indifferent, "Mrs. is the most favored by the master, and the lady's desire to succeed is inseparable from the master's favor. β
Thinking of the words that the maid in the courtyard of the third aunt came to her, Qiu Shui Man couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth, "Madame is kind to me, I remember it in my heart, so I don't want to hide some things from Madame." β
As he spoke, Qiu Shuiman raised his eyebrows and looked at the second lady, and saw a hint of loosening in her eyes before continuing, "The third aunt just sent the maid beside her to come to me, wanting to form an alliance with me, keep her position and bring down the second lady. β
The second lady's eyes flashed slightly, and the fingertips in her long sleeves couldn't help but move slightly, "Then what about the benefits she promised you?" β
Qiu Shui opened his lips indifferently, "Help me leave the Li Mansion." β
"It seems that the third aunt is not too stupid, and she still has a few hearts." After hearing this, the second lady chuckled, there was more contempt and ruthlessness in her eyes, the third aunt couldn't poison her, and now she wants to unite with Qiushui to harm her, this account, she will definitely settle it with her.
"Madame knows my heart, I am definitely going to leave the Li Mansion, and I don't have the intention of competing with anyone for favor, if the lord insists on accepting me as a concubine now, I will naturally try my best to leave here."
"The third aunt promised you, I can do it, you treat me sincerely, how can I be attentive to you, but I don't understand, staying in the Li Mansion can ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing, wealth and glory in this life, why do you have to leave here?"
A hint of amazement flashed in Qiu Shuiman's eyes, "Everyone's pursuit is different, I just want to do what I want to do." β
"You don't want to say that I won't ask much, but I'm afraid you don't know yet, the lord has ordered that you are strictly forbidden to leave the house, and even the back door has sent a few strong subordinates to watch. I have the heart to help you leave, and I am also sad to get through the master's pass. β
Oh, this made Qiu Shuiman a little surprised, Master Li valued her so much.
Qing's eyes turned slightly, and Qiu Shui said suddenly, "As long as Madame is willing to help me, I have my own way." β
"But if you suddenly disappear, the first person to blame me will definitely be me." Qiu Shuiman is the maid beside her, if she lets Qiu Shuiman go, anyone will be the first to think that she did it.
Qiu Shuiman raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Don't worry, naturally it won't affect Madame, and you can let the master punish the third aunt again." β
Two days later, Mr. Li's body has been half better, and he was reborn after the catastrophe to hold a feast in the mansion, inviting relatives and friends to come over to celebrate, the sky will sink, and the Li Mansion is busy up and down.
Since Master Li announced that he would accept Qiushuiman as the sixth aunt, Qiushuiman did not serve by the second lady's side, but moved to the courtyard specially prepared for her by Master Li.
It was getting dark, and the guests who came to eat and drink came to the house one after another.
Master Li was in a good mood, and sent someone to urge Qiushui to come out to meet the guests quickly.
"Is Miss Autumn alright?" The subordinates shouted outside the courtyard for a long time, but no one answered, and they couldn't help but be a little anxious. If he shouted patiently a few more times, he suddenly realized something, and hurriedly ran into the yard to check, it didn't matter, and he was immediately frightened and almost collapsed to the ground.
"Oh no! Autumn girl is gone! The next person shouted, and the entire Li Mansion was as lively as a fried pot.
Old Man Li's face turned pale angrily, "Hurry up and find me, there is someone guarding the gate of the mansion, she must still be in the mansion!" β
The second lady comforted the angry Master Li on the one hand, and said softly on the other hand, "What the master said is that a weak woman can run anywhere, and she can't run out of the gate of the Li Mansion." β
"Heh, what Madame said is so light, it's true that she is a weak woman, but if someone secretly helps, right?" It was the third aunt who spoke, and Master Li was in a good mood, and even the grounding of the third aunt was lifted.
The second lady's gaze swept over the third aunt, a sneer on the corner of her lips, but her voice was still gentle as usual, "It's rare that the third aunt also has the same idea as me, who secretly helped Qiushui escape, and I will find out if I catch someone and ask." β
"What! You mean someone deliberately wanted to let her go? Master Li said a little angrily.
When the second lady heard this, she looked at the third aunt meaningfully, "How can she escape by herself, and ask the master to check it carefully." β
"What are you watching me do? I didn't let people go! I think you were afraid that she would rob you of your favor, so you deliberately let her go! The third aunt was angry and said unscrupulously.
That Qiu Shuiman is really a soft and hard person, and he doesn't want to cooperate with her, and now he hasn't run away.
No, is it ......
The third aunt looked up at the second lady openly, only to see the other party laughing at her with a mocking smile, and the third aunt only felt that her head exploded.
There was a panic in the front yard, and the subordinates guarding the gate of the Li Mansion also panicked, and joined the ranks of the people in the mansion to find Qiushuiman.
One of the figures is slightly thin, shuttling through the flow of people, not eye-catching.
When he got out of the Li Mansion, the figure came around to an alley, looked back at the brightly lit Li Mansion behind him, and raised a light smile on his lips.
In order to prevent her from leaving, Master Li actually sent additional guards at the gate of the mansion to strictly check all the female relatives who entered and exited, but he never imagined that Qiushui Man would disguise herself as a man and take advantage of the chaos.
The second lady really spoke and helped her leave the Li Mansion, her mind was not here, so she couldn't talk about nostalgia.
Qiushui walked forward quickly, and the figure quickly disappeared into the vast night.
