Qu Moying and Qu Xuexin left Previous Woman Qu’s place after greeting her. Simply as they have been about to separate on the yard’s gate, Qu Xuexin abruptly referred to as out to Qu Moying, “Moying, let’s go and see Qiuyan, okay?”
Up to now few days, Qu Xuexin got here to West Mansion virtually on daily basis, and she or he met Qu Moying extra usually. Each time she met Qu Moying, she would greet Qu Moying with concern, and infrequently she would go to Qianyue Home with Qu Moying. The 2 of them gave the impression to be a lot nearer to one another within the Previous Woman’s eyes.
Previous Woman Qu felt relieved to see this. She was at all times fearful that Qu Moying would really feel lonely after returning to the mansion. Her sisters weren’t that sort to her. In spite of everything, they’d not grown up collectively.
She was relieved to see Qu Xuexin getting alongside properly with Qu Moying. She thought Qu Xuexin was sort.
With a faint smile on her face, Qu Moying shook her head and mentioned, “Eldest Sister, I received’t go to see Third Sister. Even when I am going, Third Sister won’t be comfortable to see me.”
She couldn’t keep even a seemingly peaceable relationship with Qu Qiuyan as earlier than.
Others may not learn about this matter, but it surely was not possible for Qu Xuexin to not know.
“Moying, every little thing may very well be made clear. The matter of the seniors has already turn into historical past. No person will maintain selecting on it. In spite of everything, we’re sisters. Qiuyan has thought issues by way of just lately. Let’s go to see her now. Even when she doesn’t speak with you, she will certainly be comfortable.”
Qu Xuexin suggested.
Qu Moying checked out Qu Xuexin coldly. Qu Moying discovered this light and type eldest sister increasingly meddlesome just lately.
Was it due to the improper marriage?
Qu Moying didn’t know the way Qu Xuexin was once, however she was positive that Qu Xuexin was actually not easy as a result of she truly dared to meddle in such a factor.
“Eldest Sister, because you mentioned so, let’s go.” Qu Moying mentioned flippantly. It doesn’t matter what Qu Xuexin meant, she ought to go and see Qu Qiuyan.
Not too long ago, Qu Qiuyan had been very quiet. It was not like her in any respect.
Listening to that Qu Moying agreed, Qu Xuexin was very comfortable. The 2 of them headed in the direction of Furong Home collectively.
There was no outdated maid guarding Furong Home’s door. Ever since Qu Qiuyan completed copying the scriptures, Previous Woman Qu had requested the guarding outdated maid to go away. Nevertheless, Qu Qiuyan not often got here out. She nonetheless stayed within the yard for more often than not. She gave the impression to be fairly obedient, which was one more reason why the Previous Woman let the outdated maid depart.
With out supervision, Qu Qiuyan was extraordinarily obedient.
The earlier rumors have been unfavorable to Qu Qiuyan. Each the Previous Woman and Qu Zhizhen have been very troubled. Now that Qu Qiuyan was so obedient, the Previous Woman and Qu Zhizhen each felt comfortable.
Lord Jing was noncommittal, and Qu Qiuyan’s popularity was not good now. It was laborious to inform what place Qu Qiuyan would have. Qu Zhizhen didn’t dare to ask an excessive amount of about this subject.
Qu Qiuyan gave the impression to be obedient, however she despatched a letter to Lord Jing Mansion secretly virtually on daily basis. Nevertheless, she not often received a reply. Although she received a reply, there was solely a easy sentence within the reply, which gave the impression to be written casually. She was requested to attend slowly, and there was nothing else. Lord Jing’s phrases weren’t as enthusiastic and affectionate as earlier than.
Listening to the maid report that Qu Xuexin and Qu Moying had come, Qu Qiuyan impatiently put down the letter in her hand. Qing Lian hurriedly took it over.
“Invite them in.” Qu Qiuyan mentioned coldly.
A maid hurried out and invited the 2 of them in.
Qu Xuexin and Qu Moying entered the room and noticed Qu Qiuyan, who had simply stood up. Her face was very pale and far thinner, which made her look extra pitiful and considerably gloomy.
Seeing them enter, Qu Qiuyan stood up and mentioned with a really detached expression, “Eldest Sister, Fourth Youthful Sister.”
Qu Xuexin took two steps ahead and held Qu Qiuyan’s hand. After rigorously taking a look at Qu Qiuyan’s face, she mentioned attentively with a smile, “Qiuyan, how are you? I’ve been eager to see you since I heard that you’re sick. Moying additionally needed to return, so we got here collectively.”
Qu Moying sat down on a chair on the facet. Right now, there have been no outsiders. Everybody current was clear about her relationship with Qu Qiuyan.
Yu Dong stood behind Qu Moying and seemed on the “light and dignified” Qu Xuexin. If he had not seen what had occurred earlier than, he would have thought that she was precisely how she seemed to be.
He was a eunuch serving Lord Yun. Though he knew loads of soiled issues within the palace, he handled issues like killing and punishment below the command of Lord Yun. He had by no means seen this type of drama queens.
Whether or not a girl was in a standard household or within the palace, she who acted like this may be probably the most ruthless one!
Fortuitously, Qu Moying was sensible. Yu Dong felt fortunate about that, and he thought solely Qu Moying was worthy of Lord Yun.
Since Yu Dong started to serve Qu Moying, he had regarded her as his grasp from the underside of his coronary heart.
Simply as he stood nonetheless, a maid beside her abruptly ran into him. He seemed up and noticed that it was an unknown maid. She seemed very harmless, about fourteen or fifteen years outdated.
Seeing that Yu Dong was taking a look at her, the maid waved at him gently and gestured for him to return out.
Yu Dong checked out Qu Moying and noticed that she was sitting there and watching Qu Qiuyan and Qu Xuexin speaking. He shook his head on the maid, indicating that he wouldn’t exit.
The maid had no selection however to face nonetheless. When she checked out Yu Dong, there was a sort smile on her face. She was a brand new maid right here. Yu Dong had by no means seen her in Qu Qiuyan’s place earlier than.
Was she a brand new maid within the mansion?
Yu Dong thought and remained immobile behind Qu Moying.
On the opposite facet, Qu Qiuyan and Qu Xuexin had already sat down collectively. The 2 of them have been sitting shut to one another, whereas Qu Moying was sitting additional away. Qu Qiuyan and Qu Xuexin gave the impression to be one celebration, which Qu Moying didn’t appear to slot in in any respect.
This was what Qu Moying needed. Since she was in the identical mansion as Qu Qiuyan, she couldn’t keep away from seeing her, however she would attempt to not meet her or avoid her when assembly her.
Certain sufficient, Qu Xuexin additionally noticed the gap between them and Qu Moying. She smiled and waved to Qu Moying, “Moying, sit over right here. You sit so distant. It’s not handy for us to speak.”
“Eldest Sister, it’s positive. I can hear you right here.” Qu Moying mentioned. She may hear them, however she didn’t wish to speak with them.
Qu Moying’s that means was very clear.
A hint of displeasure flashed by way of Qu Xuexin’s eyes. Qu Moying made her embarrassed. Nevertheless, she shortly hid her temper with a smile. “Since you’re feeling snug sitting there, simply sit there.”
Qu Qiuyan glanced at Qu Moying and didn’t say the rest. They’d nothing to say anymore.
The maids served them tea and snacks.
Qu Xuexin seemed on the maids round her and urged with a mild smile, “Qiuyan, Moying, let the maids depart in order that we will have a non-public speak.”
Qu Qiuyan seemed on the maids round her. Most of them have been her maids. She waved her hand, and all her maids left. Qing Lian hesitated for a second and likewise left.
Qu Xuexin mentioned one thing to the maid beside her, and the maid behind her additionally left.
Since each of them had finished so, Qu Moying naturally needed to do the identical. She rotated and glanced at Yu Dong. Yu Dong understood and went out as properly.
When he retreated to the door, Yu Dong stopped. Right here was the closest place to the room. Even when one thing occurred, he may shortly rush in.
Simply as he stood nonetheless, he abruptly felt a tug on his sleeve. “Sister Yu Dong.”
He rotated and noticed the earlier maid taking a look at him with a candy smile. Though she was not very lovely, her smile made individuals chill out.
“Who’re you?” Yu Dong took just a few steps again and requested in a low voice. This maid had intentionally ran into him earlier than. Yu Dong sized her up and located that she was properly dressed. She wore two hairpins. Though they weren’t huge, they seemed like strong gold hairpins. It was too luxurious for a maid.
“I’m Qing Mei, a brand new maid within the mansion. I’m Third Woman’s senior maid.” Qing Mei mentioned proudly.
She seemed considerably simple-minded.
“You might be Third Woman’s new senior maid?” Yu Dong was very stunned. He had not heard that Qu Qiuyan had a brand new maid just lately, nor had any server-seller come to the mansion.
“Sure, Second Younger Grasp selected me in East Mansion and specifically despatched me to Third Woman. He mentioned that Third Woman didn’t have sufficient servants. Sister Yu Dong, you look actually tall and delightful.” Qing Mei seemed up and down at Yu Dong with envy after which continued, “I heard that the one who adopted the Fourth Woman probably the most was you, so I may acknowledge you at first look.”
This was to say that East Mansion requested a server-seller to select a maid after which despatched the maid to West Mansion. No marvel he had by no means seen her right here.
this intelligent and enthusiastic Qing Mei, Yu Dong smiled. “I’m not lovely. You might be lovely.”
Yu Dong didn’t like individuals saying that he was lovely. He didn’t should be lovely!
As for his peak, he was initially taller than abnormal maids. Furthermore, Qing Mei in entrance of him seemed very small.
“Sister Yu Dong, I’ve simply arrived within the mansion. I don’t know a lot. I may need to bother you sooner or later. This can be a token of my appreciation. I hope you prefer it.” Qing Mei pulled out a hairpin from her head and handed it to Yu Dong with a really heat smile.
Though the hairpin was small, it gave the impression to be strong gold, which was fairly helpful.
Yu Dong shook his hand and mentioned, “How… How dare I settle for it?”
Qing Mei reached out to carry Yu Dong’s hand, put the hairpin in his hand, closed his hand, and mentioned sweetly, “Sister Yu Dong, I such as you on the first sight. For those who don’t settle for it, then you’re looking down on me. I simply entered the mansion and don’t know something. I’ll undoubtedly have to bother you sooner or later. Sister Yu Dong, please settle for my reward.”
After saying that, she pointed at Qing Lian, whose face darkened, and mentioned in a low voice, “Sister Yu Dong, I’ll depart first. In any other case, Sister Qing Lian will probably be indignant. I simply entered the mansion. I don’t dare to make Sister Qing Lian indignant.”
Then, she rotated and ran in the direction of Qing Lian, leaving the hairpin in Yu Dong’s fingers. Apparently, Yu Dong needed to settle for it!
A maid couldn’t afford to purchase such a hairpin even together with her complete 12 months’s wage. However Qing Mei was fairly beneficiant. A touch of ridicule flashed in Yu Dong’s eyes. He was not a girl and didn’t like such form of jewellery. Furthermore, he was not wanting cash…
