Chapter 25: The Uninvited Guest (1)

 、、、、、、、、、、

Mrs. Yu finished breakfast, so she called Mr. Jiang to Xiuhe Courtyard, there are a few maid rings at home whose contracts have expired, and some maid rings need to be added, Mrs. Yu found Mr. Jiang, and asked him to find Ya Po to introduce a few maid rings to the house to choose.

"Madam, it's reasonable for this Xiuhe Courtyard to add more people, but ...... But yesterday, Aunt Chen came to find the little one, saying that Huaichun Courtyard would also add a few girls, you see? Chief Manager Jiang said cautiously, his eyes carefully observing Madame Yu's expression.

Madam Yu raised her eyebrows lightly and asked softly, "There are eight maids serving in Huaichun Courtyard, do you still need manpower?" ”

"The little one doesn't think it needs to be added more, but Aunt Chen said that the eldest girl is going to marry this year, and few people will follow her in and out, and she will lose the face of the Yu family." Manager Jiang was in a cold sweat, on one side was the wife of the head of the family, and on the other hand was the lord's favorite concubine, he was difficult to be a man on both sides.

Mrs. Yu smiled coldly without leaving a trace, "Then find two more girls for her." ”

Manager Jiang was stunned for a moment, nodded stiffly, and thought to himself, how could Mrs. agree to Aunt Chen? Aunt Chen's daughter almost killed Madame's daughter, shouldn't Madame hate Aunt Chen in her heart? Could it be because the lord dotes on Aunt Chen, so the lady doesn't dare to offend?

"Find another little girl for the second girl, ah, by the way, is Qiuyu still in the warm garden?" Madame Jade asked.

"Eh, that girl was originally serving Cui Gong in the Warm Garden, but after Cui Gong left, she didn't go to the Eyebrow Garden, she stayed in the Warm Garden to clean, but she was going to be transferred back to the Eyebrow Garden?" Mr. Jiang replied.

"No need, Qiuyu, I have other arrangements, you choose a girl to go to the warm garden." Madame Jade's eyes flickered slightly, and then disappeared.

"Yes" Manager Jiang was slightly surprised, but he didn't dare to ask more.

"I heard that the chief manager of Zhuang Wu in the north of the city broke his leg? Is there such a thing? Mrs. Yu closed the book and thought for a while before asking.

"It's true, a few days ago, the north of the city was not very peaceful at night, Mr. Wu was worried that there were thieves, and he always got up in the middle of the night to patrol once, and he fell a lot and broke his left leg, and now he is resting at home." Mr. Jiang replied.

"The people were injured on our land, and it was also to protect the property of the Yu family, the medical expenses of the Yu family should be paid, and then give him an extra half a year's salary, and buy some supplements to see him." Lady Jade said softly.

"Yes," replied Mr. Jiang.

"It's nothing, you go down first." Mrs. Yu smiled lightly and rubbed her forehead, she was always very tired these days, and I don't know if it had something to do with her mood.

"The little one went down first." Manager Jiang saluted and turned around to leave.

"Uncle Jiang, you are the boss of the family, you don't have to treat yourself as a slave, you can't blame you for the previous things, don't always take it to heart, there are still many things that the family needs you." Mrs. Yu suddenly opened her mouth when Manager Jiang turned around, and she was a little helpless when she listened to Manager Jiang's always small sentence on the left and a small sentence on the right.

"Husband...... Madam? Manager Jiang was stunned, and his wrinkled eyes became a little wet.

"Forget about the past." Madame Jade said softly.

"Thank you, ma'am, little ...... I'll go down and do things first. Mr. Jiang took a breath, nodded and left Xiuhe Courtyard with a heart full of emotion.

"Madam, aren't you afraid that Manager Jiang will ...... again" After Manager Jiang walked away, Li Niang asked Mrs. Yu suspiciously.

"Don't be suspicious, I'm sure he will be on my side wholeheartedly in the future." Madam Jade said firmly.

"Hey, madam, you have always been extremely intelligent, and I believe that you will not be wrong in looking at people." Li Niang said.

When Mrs. Yu heard this, she smiled bitterly, her eyes were full of Xiao's helplessness, "Didn't I already read it wrong once?" "Just one time is enough to ruin her life.

Li Niang froze, lowered her head, and secretly scolded herself for not opening which pot to mention, and complained that Yuyunsheng should not have lost his wife.

At this time, Xia Yu walked in with a little girl, the little girl was serving in the front yard hall, she walked up to Mrs. Yu, lowered her head, her shoulders trembled slightly, and she seemed to be very nervous, "Madam, there is a guest looking for you in the front yard." ”

"Guests? Which guest? "Madame Jade raised her eyebrows, who else would look for her at this time?

"Mrs. Hui, slave maid...... The slave maid didn't know that the guest just said that his surname was Qi. The little girl whispered back.

Surname Qi? Madame Yu's eyes moved slightly, looking at the surprised Liniang.

"Is the master in the front yard?" Madame Jade asked again.

"No, the master and Aunt Chen have gone out." The little girl said.

"Did you say where you went?" Madame Jade asked casually.

"I didn't ...... No. The little girl replied in a low voice, "The whereabouts of the Lord are so inquiring to those of them who sit down."

"Well, then you go and serve the guest some tea first, and I'll be there later." Madame Jade pondered for a moment before she said softly.

After the little girl went out, Mrs. Yu asked Liniang to comb her a dignified and simple cloud sideburns, and put a little rouge on it, so that her pale face was slightly ruddy, looking at the no longer young self in the bronze mirror, Mrs. Yu slightly lips and smiled faintly.

"Madam, which one with the surname Qi will come to you?" Li Niang helped Mrs. Yu, walked out of Xiuhe Courtyard, and walked to the front yard.

Madam Jade shook her head, "I can't guess either." ”

"Could it be a concubine?" Li Niang asked, thought about it again, and felt impossible, "Maybe it's the prince." ”

"You don't have to guess, you know when you see it." Passing through the small square, Mrs. Yu's footsteps slowed down, she turned her head sideways, and looked at the courtyard not far to the left of the small square, and the word Hanyuan was clearly imprinted in her eyes.

Her face was expressionless, her eyes flickered, she turned her head lightly, and walked towards the hall.

In the hall, there was a person standing upright, tall and tall, standing in the center opposite Madame Yu.

Madame Yu's eyes were hot, her lips were pale, she shook Liniang's hand and stopped, standing a few steps away from the door and unable to move forward.

Qi Yin stood with his hands in his hands, his palms clenched into fists, his knuckles slightly white, looking at the figure that was still as beautiful as in his memory, his heart was full of excitement, and the closer he looked at people, the deeper the anger in his heart.

This is...... Is this his peerless sister, who often laughs without dust and smoke like a fairy?

Why are those eyes as pure as water in memory so depressed? Why is there such loneliness?

"Husband...... Madam, it's the master. Li Niang covered her mouth and choked her lips, looking at Mrs. Yu, tears fell uncontrollably.

"Yes...... Is it ......" Mrs. Jade pulled her lips forcibly, but she couldn't make a tune, was she dreaming? How can it be a brother?

Qi Yin took a deep breath, reached out and touched his cheek, and walked up to Mrs. Yu with a smile, "Er, what's the matter?" I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and I don't know my brother? ”

When Mrs. Jade heard this, she chuckled, and tears fell like pearls with broken threads.

It's the younger brother, it's him...... She remembered that he was always indecent, but how, how could he come to her?

"Sister, I'm not here to see you cry." Qi Yin whispered, but his heart was bitter and sad.

"Brother......" Mrs. Yu cried, and the maid who was looking at them curiously was slightly stunned, and looked at Qi Yin in surprise.

Qi Yin smiled slightly, he thought that he would never hear Qi Yan call him brother again.

"Madam, master, let's talk inside, it's inconvenient here." Liniang's face was full of tears, and when she saw that many slaves and maids around her were hooking their heads to explore, she motioned for Mrs. Yu to go to the hall to talk.

"Let's go inside." Lady Jade said to Yin.

Qi Yin nodded, then suddenly stopped, and said coldly to the little guy standing in front of the doorpost in the front yard, "Go, get your master back." ”

The little guy was stunned and hesitated to go.

Qi Yin glared angrily, "If you don't go quickly, just say that his uncle saw him coming!" ”

"Yes, yes." The little guy was startled, but he secretly complained in his heart, where did he know where the master went? But he didn't dare to reply, so he could only run out and decide to go to the shops that the master often went to look for.
