"I will keep you, but from today on, you must be absolutely loyal to me, otherwise, you will accept your fate, and now I will give you a quarter of an hour to consider, in the future, whether to be loyal to me, or ......"

Xie Lingyun looked at Qiu Yan seriously, and originally planned to give her time to think about it, but she didn't expect that after she said anything, Qiu Yan knelt down again without hesitation and kowtowed to her:

"Miss, Chunxiang and I were originally because of Miss's kindness, on the day when our parents sold slaves and maids, we took pity on the fate of slaves and maids, and bought two slaves and maids.

Xie Lingyun didn't expect this to happen, so in this way, the Qiu Yan in front of her and Chunxiang, who had not met because of corporal punishment and recuperation, could be people on her side, that is, people who were loyal to the original owner?

It's just that people's hearts will change, and she doesn't dare to blindly believe it at present, because she is weak, because she doesn't know anything about this dynasty and the things in the backyard of Xie Mansion, so she has to be extra cautious, which is why she wants Qiu Yan to be absolutely loyal.

Qiu Yan glanced at Xie Lingyun, bit her lip as if she had made up her mind, and then said: "Miss, if you don't believe in the slave maid, the slave and maid will swear that if the slave betrays the slave, the slave and maid will not die well, and they will not die well after death." ”

Xie Lingyun frowned when she heard this, and still said seriously: "In the future, you have to remember your oath, me!" Trust you for now. ”

She didn't believe in such a thing as swearing, but she felt that the ancients should be convinced of this kind of thing; Since Qiu Yan can make such a poisonous oath, this also makes her let down a little bit of her guard in her heart.

As for whether Qiu Yan was forced to make a poisonous oath because she didn't want to marry that little guy, she could only wait for a slow look in the future, after all, nothing can be trusted, only time is the only criterion for testing the truth.

"You get up and talk back first." She was deeply unaccustomed to the fact that someone was kneeling before her, but she could not show it, and since she was already here, she had to force herself to get used to it, at least until she was powerless to change everything.

Qiu Yan heard that Xie Lingyun had something to say, so she didn't dare to delay, and immediately stood up, bent over and stood there respectfully waiting.

"Qiu Yan, since you said that you are loyal to me, but there is one thing, I don't know, why when I was so sick, you didn't use your loyalty, and tried every means to find Lang Chinese medicine for me?"

Xie Lingyun observed her carefully in the past few days, and guessed that the person in front of her must not be stupid, but such a clever person, why would he watch the original owner get sick and not go to the eldest wife? This matter has always been in her heart, although the original owner is indirectly still alive, but the original owner's soul has returned, if it weren't for her soul piercing the original owner, then the original owner is now a dead person.

"Miss......" Qiu Yan was about to answer, but Xie Lingyun raised her hand to stop, looked at her sternly, and said in a low voice: "Raise your head and look into my eyes to answer, remember, I want to listen to the truth!" ”

"Yes" Qiu Yan raised her eyes very firmly, perhaps she had now realized that this was the key to whether her young lady should trust her or not, so she replied very simply:

"On the day of Miss's illness, the slave maid and Chunxiang were sent to the kitchen by Mama Liu to help, and when they heard that the young lady was gone, they hurried back, at that time the young lady had been out with Miss Eight for two hours, originally the slave and Chunxiang wanted to find Miss Eight, and asked where Miss went, but Mama Liu stopped her, and then waited until the slave and Chunxiang found Miss, Miss was having a high fever, Chunxiang asked the slave to stay and take care of Miss, she was going back to the eldest lady to find Langzhong, but she was Mama Liu, On the grounds that the two slaves and maids did not take good care of the young lady, Haruka was punished for kneeling in the snow. ”

When Xie Lingyun heard this, she "chuckled" in her heart, no matter how she sounded, it sounded like Mama Liu had delayed the time to invite Langzhong, but in the past few days, she has observed Mama Liu, although her adaptability is a little poor, her concern for the original owner should not be fake? At this moment, her heart was really messed up, it was so difficult that everything was an illusion, or the autumn goose in front of her was lying?

If she believes that Mama Liu is suspected of harming the original owner, she has a big doubt in her heart, not to say that Mama Liu is the grandmother of the original owner, just say that the master has something, and it is difficult for the slave to be able to do it alone?

But looking at Qiu Yan's expression, it didn't look like he was lying, at this moment, Xie Lingyun felt that things were very complicated, just like no one was sincere, and no one was fake. With a headache, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and asked the question in his heart:

"According to what you mean, it means that the whole thing is not to blame you and Chunxiang, but because of Mama Liu's obstruction and inadvertentness!"

Qiu Yan made up her mind to show her loyalty, so she didn't drag her feet when she answered, and said directly: "Yes." ”

"It's not because Chunxiang was physically punished by Mama Liu that you said that!" Xie Lingyun wanted to ask about this.

Qiu Yan didn't have a trace of panic in her eyes, and replied: "Back to Miss, although the slave and the maid have a good relationship with Chunxiang, but they know that there is no Miss, maybe Qiu Yan is begging for a life there at this time, and the slave and maid will not forget who is the master of the slave and maid for the sake of Chunxiang." ”

Qiu Yan's last sentence hit Xie Lingyun's heart hard, so that she had no way to doubt her words, so that Mama Liu might really be wrong? But she was suspicious in her heart, because when she just woke up, she saw that Mama Liu's concern for the original owner didn't seem to be fake, but before she could think about it, Qiu Yan said a word.

"Miss, the slave maid heard from the old man in the house that Mama Liu is not the real grandmother who has served the young lady since she was a child."

Another heavy sentence smashed into Xie Lingyun's heart, "Oh? It made her feel that things were getting more and more complicated: "When did Mama Liu come to serve in front of me, and who was my original grandma and where did she go?" ”

Qiu Yan reported according to the truth: "The current Mama Liu was sent to serve by the eldest lady after Aunt Feng's death, and the original grandmother of the young lady, the slave maid has not seen it, but I heard the old man in the house say that the surname of the young lady's grandmother is Ji, everyone calls her Mama Ji, everyone says that Mama Ji is very kind, and now Mama Ji is arranged by the eldest lady to serve the little master in the Zhuangzi." ”

"Little master?" Xie Lingyun heard this, but felt that her brain was a little insufficient, why did she pop up a little young master, and he was not raised in the mansion? sighed secretly, there are really a lot of rights and wrongs in this mansion, and they are intricate, and it is difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.

Qiu Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked like she was in a trance, with a little smile on her face, and replied:

"The slave forgot about the amnesia of the young lady, the little young master that the slave just said was born to Aunt Feng, that is, the younger brother of the same milk as Miss You, the little young master is six years old this year, and he is the fourth among the young masters in the house, but because the young master is the youngest, they all call him the little young master, and now the little young master lives in the Zhuangzi in the countryside, and Mama Ji is waiting in front of him."

Qiu Yan said just a few words, but Xie Lingyun was stunned, the original owner also had a younger brother, which was too incredible. That was mainly a younger brother's words, and she was shocked, she thought of something, and hurriedly asked:

"Do you mean my brother-in-law, then why does he live in Zhuangzi now, and when did he go to Zhuangzi, and do you usually have correspondence with me?"

Qiu Yan looked up at Xie Lingyun in a little surprise, she now completely felt that her young lady had changed, she had never seen the young lady ask about the little young master before, and even interrupted impatiently every time she heard the little young master be mentioned. It was rare to hear the young lady ask, and she quickly replied:

"The little young master went to live in Zhuangzi when he was less than a year old, because..." Qiu Yan said this, biting her lip and not knowing how to answer, she looked very embarrassed.

"Because of what, speak quickly, remember, I want to hear the truth." Xie Lingyun urged, she was really curious.

Qiu Yan seemed to have plucked up enough courage, and then said: "At that time, the eldest lady asked the fortune teller to come to the house to see feng shui, saying that the little young master was evil, and it was the order of the father and the mother that was sent to Zhuangzi. Miss rejected the little master because Aunt Feng died in childbirth when she gave birth to the little master, so the young lady never asked about the little master before, and she never let people visit the little master in Zhuangzi. ”

Xie Lingyun listened, just thinking about a little baby who didn't know anything in swaddling clothes, and was abandoned to Zhuangzi like this, she felt a heart-wrenching pain, what kind of home did she come to, and she could be so ruthless to a child who was less than a year old.

The most unacceptable thing for her is the ignorance of the original owner, the first time she complained about the original owner, Aunt Feng's death, how can she rely on a child? There is one more point she also needs to ask:

"The eldest lady said to send the little master to Zhuangzi, did my father easily agree?"

Qiu Yan thought for a while and said: "When I sent the little young master to the Zhuangzi, the slave and maid had not yet entered the mansion, not too clear, but I heard the old man in the house say that the master did not like the little young master either, and the eldest lady said that the little young master should be sent to the Zhuangzi, but the master did not say a word. ”

That's the default. Xie Lingyun felt a chill in his heart, thinking of the gentle father he had just seen today, it was really hard to imagine that he was such a ruthless person, and his own child, and a little baby who didn't understand anything, was left to the eldest wife.

"Huh" exhaled a breath of turbidity in his heart, "You tell me everything about the little young master now." ”

Qiu Yan slowly told what she knew, about the little young master.

Xie Lingyun listened very seriously, and slowly had a preliminary understanding of the hard-working younger brother: the second young master in the Xie Mansion, the fourth in line is called Xie Pingfan, who is six years old this year, and has never returned to the Xie Mansion once since he arrived in the Zhuangzi, if it weren't for the stewards who sent food and clothing to the Zhuangzi from time to time, the entire Xie Mansion may not remember that there is a young master outside.

"Miss, the slave doesn't know much about the little master, why don't you go and inquire again?" Qiu Yan herself is not a stupid person, seeing that her young lady seems to care a little about the little master, she is smart in her heart, and feels that this is an opportunity to show herself in front of her young lady.

Xie Lingyun was about to nod in agreement when she heard this, but she stopped and shook her head, "Huh, let's put this matter aside for a while, I don't have anything to do here, you go out first." ”

She had to think about it carefully, knowing that there was still a younger brother there, and that the situation of the unmasked brother did not seem to be as good as hers, she thought, whether it was for the sake of the original owner, or out of pity for the six-year-old child in her heart, she could not sit idly by, but how to manage it, she had to think about it.
