"Then may I ask Mama Zhang, am I the only one going with my mother, or with my sisters? How many days are you going? Xie Lingyun asked modestly.

Mama Zhang probably felt that it didn't matter this time, so she didn't pause, and said very simply: "Back to Miss Jiu, this time I went to Lingshan Temple with the eldest lady, as well as the fourth and fifth misses, and the eldest lady said that after the next few days were ready, she set off to Lingshan Temple." ”

Xie Lingyun didn't know anything about Lingshan Temple, so it was inconvenient to ask Mama Zhang about going to Lingshan Temple, but she felt strange in her heart, when she saw the eldest lady just now, why didn't the eldest lady tell her, but sent Mama Zhang to this trip again.

She sensed that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell anything was wrong; Fortunately, Mama Zhang said just now that she was not the only one who followed the eldest lady to Lingshan Temple, otherwise she would have thought that the eldest lady would attack her because of her performance when she asked for peace in the morning.

wanted to come back to her senses, but saw Mama Zhang staring at her, Xie Lingyun smiled and said politely:

"I know, please ask Mama Zhang to return to my mother, just say that I will be ready in the next few days, and I can leave with my mother at any time."

"The old slave will be a big lady." Mama Zhang observed it carefully, and suddenly felt that the eldest lady was too worried about her, and the Miss Nine in front of her had not changed much.

"It's just..." Xie Lingyun felt that the details of going to Lingshan Temple should still be asked clearly: "It's just that what do you need to prepare for going to Lingshan Temple, and you have to bother Mama Zhang to give you some guidance." ”

Mama Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then said solemnly: "Miss Nine, how can you let Miss Nine worry about this little soft thing, such things are all the business of being a slave." After saying this, she looked around the room, and when she saw that there was no one waiting in the room, she frowned, and then spoke:

"Miss Nine, it is said that the old slave should not talk too much, but the old slave has been here for a while, but no one has come to serve you, it is really a bit unreasonable, Miss Nine, you are too negligent in controlling the people who serve in front of you."

Xie Lingyun didn't expect to hear Mama Zhang's words in front of her, it seemed that she sincerely said such heartfelt words for her sake, but who could know that Mama Zhang's words were not an indirect discord between her and her subordinates, of course, it could not be ruled out, Mama Zhang suddenly said kind words, but she also had a skeptical attitude, after all, the person in front of her was the most powerful person in front of the eldest lady.

It was precisely because she was not sure that the other party was not allowed to say these words that she couldn't say much, so she could only say casually:

"Mama Zhang is too worried, Mama Liu and Qiu Yan are very careful, but I don't want them to serve in front of me now, so I sent them out." Then she picked up the celadon teacup beside her, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to Mama Zhang.

"In the past few days, Mama Zhang has worked hard for her mother's affairs, but she has not rested well, but she has to ask you to run in person, I really feel that I can't go, Mama Zhang, please drink water."

Mama Zhang half got up unhurriedly, took the tea, but pretended to be panicked and said: "Miss Nine is really tormenting the old slave when she says this, doing things for the master, this is originally the duty of those of us to be slaves." ”

Xie Lingyun looked at the unhurried but comfortable old man in front of him, and sighed secretly in his heart, look at this loyal servant, no matter how much he is serving in front of the original owner, it is really a heaven and an earth, there is no comparison.

Mama Zhang took a sip of tea, didn't think about it, but talked about the topic just now, and said: "Miss Nine is sick this time, in the eyes of the old slave, it is because the subordinates who are waiting in front of her are not careful, otherwise in this way, the old slave overstepped her authority and replaced the autumn geese around her on behalf of Miss Jiu, and the autumn geese also reached the age of marriage, pointed her to the little maid in the house, and then sent a caring maid to Miss Jiu, Miss Nine saw that it was good." ”

I said good things just now, but I was waiting for her here; Xie Lingyun was amused in her heart, she didn't rush to speak, but looked at Mama Zhang, slowly picked up the teacup next to her, took a sip of tea in slow motion, and then said:

"Does Mother know about what Mama Zhang said? And Mama Zhang plans to point out Qiu Yan to that little guy, speaking of which, after all, Qiu Yan has served me for a few years, and it can be regarded as having feelings, so I have to ask clearly, Mama Zhang, do you say this is the reason? ”

Mama Zhang married Qiu Yan, but in fact, she really didn't say a word to the eldest lady, because in her opinion, this little thing - and it is also the marriage of the maid next to Miss Shuchu who is not valued in the house, in her opinion, it is a trivial matter, how can she still use it to tell the eldest lady, she has done such a thing a few times before, and those young ladies who dare to say a word; But this time, she didn't expect that Miss Nine in front of her would ask out loud, and she was a little dissatisfied in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, and said with a smile:

"Miss Nine is joking with the old slave, hehe, how can this little thing be good to the eldest lady knows, speaking of which, the old slave knows that Miss Nine is so sick, and the maid who is waiting around her has not returned to the eldest lady for a long time to know that Miss Nine is invited to Langzhong, and I feel that Miss Nine has a little caring and clever little maid around her, so I worry about Miss Nine, as for whether I agree or not, I still have to take the idea of Miss Nine."

Xie Lingyun smiled and said, "Mama Zhang bothered, but Mama Zhang hasn't said it yet, the little guy you pointed to Qiu Yan?" In her opinion, the more Mama Zhang looked at him, the more it showed that the little girl who pointed out to Qiu Yan was not good.

In fact, it is said that she didn't know everything when she first arrived, especially when she didn't know whether Qiu Yan was loyal to the original owner or not, at this time Mama Zhang proposed this matter, if the good thing is to sell it to Mama Zhang no matter what the future of Qiu Yan is, if there is something going on with the eldest lady at that time, maybe she can know something through Mama Zhang in front of her.

But she knows that a marriage, and it is a marriage that determines the good and bad of a woman's life, cannot be hasty or playful; Besides, her conscience can't let her dispose of Qiu Yan's marriage as a deal. If she knew that Mama Zhang's match for Qiu Yan was not good, even if she offended Mama Zhang, she would refuse, this is her principle - the principle that you can't manipulate the fate of others at will.

Mama Zhang's face was a little unsightly, probably because she blamed Xie Lingyun for asking repeatedly, but she didn't say anything unpleasant, just replied briefly:

"Since Miss Nine pities Qiu Yan's girl so much, this can be regarded as the blessing of that girl, if you want to talk about Qiu Yan's girl, it is really blessed, the old slave assigned her a little maid for marriage, she is good and very smart, and his mother, who is the steward of our house, is Mama Li's youngest son, called Li Fu, a few years older than Qiu Yan's girl, and it can be regarded as a top match."

Xie Lingyun heard a gasp outside the door when Mama Zhang said the little guy, although it was very light, but she heard it, and who was waiting outside the door at this time, she didn't need to look to know that it was Qiu Yan, a gasping sound, it obviously showed a problem, that is, the person Zhang Mama was referring to was not in line with Qiu Yan's intentions, so this matter could not be accepted, but she could not refuse it clearly, Xie Lingyun put what she wanted to say in her mind a few times before saying:

"I heard Mama Zhang say that the situation of the little guy is really the blessing of the autumn geese, but I am used to the autumn geese, if I don't want to match her now, I really don't know how to be good, Mama Zhang, why don't you see this, let me stay for the day of the autumn geese, wait for a while, and then let you arrange it?"

Mama Zhang really couldn't laugh this time, she didn't expect to say it so clearly, but in the end she got this sentence, and she smiled darkly in her heart, a young lady who came out of the house, didn't even give her this face, if she begged the eldest lady, hum, she still had to agree obediently. After figuring it out, Mama Zhang didn't say much, and said, "Listen to Miss Nine." And he retired.

Xie Lingyun looked at the door curtain swaying back and forth, and had a headache, and couldn't help but blame herself secretly, she shouldn't have made trouble for herself for other people's business. But she also knew that although she secretly blamed herself in her heart for looking for trouble when she had nothing to do, if she wanted to answer Mama Zhang again, she would still say the words of delay, at least she had to ask the party Qiu Yan before making a decision.

"Miss... Xie Lingyun was thinking about calling Qiu Yan in, but Qiu Yan came in with a pale face.

Xie Lingyun looked at her, and was even more sure that she was the one who was standing outside the door waiting just now, and seeing her face, it was even more certain that she was going to offend Mama Zhang completely, and she felt powerless for a while, and she wanted to let her go out, but she didn't want to listen to what she had to say.

But in the end, she still had to respect Qiu Yan's opinion and asked her:

"What Mama Zhang said just now, I don't think I need to repeat it again, what do you think, say it and I'll listen to it."

"Plop", but Qiu Yan knelt on the ground without warning, and begged with tears in her eyes: "Miss, Qiu Yan doesn't want to get married, Qiu Yan wants to serve Miss for a lifetime, beg Miss to agree to Qiu Yan, ask Miss to promise Qiu Yan." ”

Xie Lingyun squinted at her for a while, and then said coldly, "I promise you?" Then you know what I will face after I promise you, right? Mama Zhang is a celebrity in front of the eldest lady. ”

Xie Lingyun will help her, but before that, she plans to try her and see if she is worth helping her. After saying these words to her, if she still insists on helping her by herself, then this Qiu Yan in front of her is very selfish, and for her own sake, she let her, a young lady who is unable to move an inch in Xie Mansion, take up the thunder for her, so that even if she helps her, she will not trust her in the future, because she doesn't want to be Mr. Dongguo. But if it's the other way around, then she'll try to trust her.

When Qiu Yan heard this, she raised her head violently, with an incredible expression, and slowly she lowered her head again, and after a while, her voice said in an empty voice:

"It's the slave who doesn't know what's wrong, and I ask the young lady to punish her."

"Huh" Xie Lingyun breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, here she felt that she could finally find a temporarily credible person, stood up, slowly stepped forward to help her up, stared at her a little dead eyes, and said word by word:

"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 ......"
