This question seemed a bit awkward. Ah Zhi opened her mouth several times before asking, "Girl, what is your status in this yard?"

Qianxue pursed her lips, feeling deeply that this question was difficult to answer, but her words had already been spoken. She thought for a while and finally answered: "Marriage, but no status."

Ah Zhi seemed not to have expected such an answer and fell silent for a moment.

Qianxue didn't find it strange, no matter who she was, she would feel that there was no future for her, so silence was normal.

Qian Xue didn't scold her. She took Ah Zhi and found a place for her in the yard.

Qian Xue wanted to report to Jing Yu that Ah Zhi was following her now, but with the recent turmoil in the court, all Jing Yu's thoughts were focused on it, and Qian Xue really didn't dare to disturb him.

On the contrary, it was Liuli who came to visit and found out about Ah Zhi first.

Liuli looked at Ah Zhi, her eyes naturally showing the joy of being taken seriously by Qian Xue.

"It should have been like this a long time ago. Serving young masters is not an easy job. You have been with the young master for a while. I don't know how your body can handle it."

Liuli spoke frankly, but Qianxue felt her cheeks burning hot. Especially when she glanced at Ah Zhi who was watching the fire, she wanted to bury her head in the ground.

"Tell me about you, how long have you been here and why are you still so easily shy?" Liuli smiled and tapped her forehead.

However, Qianxue lowered her head angrily. Liuli knew that she was shy, but he always liked to tease her like this.

Liuli saw that Qianxue seemed a little angry, so she smiled and put her arm around her shoulders.

"It was my fault, I shouldn't have talked to you like this." Seeing Qianxue looking sideways at her, she continued with a smile this time: "I'm afraid your young master will be promoted again."

Qianxue was stunned. Jing Yu had been busy these days and she had never seen him a few times. She had no idea what his current situation was.

"A few days ago, there was a corruption case in the south. The criminal was escorted to the imperial capital within half a month. The chief trial was the young master. I heard that if the trial was meritorious, he would be rewarded!"

Liuli looked at Qianxue with a teasing look on her face.

Azhi, who had been watching the fire silently, dropped a piece of silver charcoal.

Qianxue and Liuli looked at Ah Zhi at the same time, and Qianxue asked aloud: "Are you burned?"

Ah Zhi buried her head, picked up a basin and rushed out, as if she didn't want Qian Xue to see her expression.

"Slave, go and change the basin of water."

Liuli's eyes kept chasing Ah Zhi's figure until she disappeared in the distance.

"Axue, I know you are soft-hearted and kind-hearted. However, your status is different now, and you need to be more aware of a master. You must be strict when you need to be, but don't let others bully you."

Liuli grabbed Qian Xue's hand and persuaded her earnestly: "There are always some people who have a weak heart."

Qianxue nodded silently, not fully accepting Liuli's statement in her heart. She just wanted to hurt Liuli's heart, but she couldn't do it.

Seeing that Qian Xue was still silent, Liu Li looked at the direction Ah Zhi was leaving, as if she had thought of something.

"Although this girl isn't careful enough, she looks pretty good. I don't know what her temperament is."

Liuli glanced at the confused Qianxue and couldn't help but pat her leg.

"You have to keep an eye on this girl and don't let this girl have any thoughts that she shouldn't have. Lest you cultivate her with good intentions, but end up making a wedding dress for someone else and replace you when the time comes."

Qianxue was stunned. She had never thought about it in this direction. However, after thinking about it carefully, I felt that Liuli's words were not unreasonable.

These days, Ah Zhi has tidied up a lot and put on clothes that fit her. Although her facial features are still not outstanding, her skin is fair and her temperament is special, giving her a sense of calmness and stability.

Coupled with the flawless behavior and etiquette, it is even more stable and calm.

Qianxue guessed that the family she served before must also be a noble family.

But why was such an outstanding servant like her sold out?

When Liuli saw Qianxue starting to wander, she couldn't help but pat her.

Qianxue came back to her senses and looked at Liuli's worried eyes. There was not much worry in her expression.

If the eldest young master is interested in Ah Zhi, then she can't stop him. If the eldest young master had no intention of Ah Zhi, Ah Zhi, who took the initiative to sacrifice himself, would probably die miserably.

Although she was thinking this in her heart, she still nodded when facing Liuli, "I will pay attention."

Liuli smiled and couldn't help but praise Jingyu's clean backyard a few more times, making Qianxue cherish it.

Qian Xue had another layer of confusion. If Jing Yu was really not a womanizer, how did she get to where she is today?

So, facing a woman who is willing to sacrifice herself and poses no threat, will Jing Yu really refuse?

Liuli's topic turned to Qi Liu again.

"You don't have to worry now. The new lady is about to come in. It's time for the young master to change your position so that you can be more comfortable in the future."

Qianxue felt irritable when she heard this. She didn't want to provoke Qi Liu, nor did she want to think about the issue of heirs.

He simply buried his head in drinking water and refused to answer Liuli's words.

Liuli, on the other hand, is in a world of her own, "When the eldest young master's marriage is over, the third young master's marriage should also be put on the agenda. Anyway, the candidate has already been decided, and we just have to wait for the eldest lady to come to propose marriage."

Jing Ke's fiancée didn't have any special reputation in the imperial capital. She was just gentle and virtuous. However, all the ladies in the imperial capital could be said to be gentle and virtuous, as long as they were not too out of touch.

It sounds no different than what he didn't say.

Liuli was still chattering, but it was just a topic between the two young masters. Qian Xue was not interested and just lowered her head and responded from time to time.

Then he replied with a smile: "May all your wishes come true. The third young master can give you the title of concubine as soon as possible, and you can have a child by your side."

Liuli caressed her belly with both hands, her eyes full of longing, as if all this beauty was right before her eyes.

Today, the conversation between Qianxue and Liuli ended quickly, but Liuli was in a very good mood.

That night, as soon as Jing Yu returned to the courtyard, he asked Tian Xuan to find Qian Xue.

When Qianxue entered the room, she saw Jing Yu still wearing official robes. His brows were furrowed as if he was thinking about something, and she didn't notice the official authority he was exuding at this moment.

Qianxue resisted the urge to tremble in her legs and bowed in a low voice.

When Jing Yu saw her, he relaxed, and with a slight smile on his lips, he called her over.

Qian Xue was not idle either. After approaching, she helped Jing Yu untie his official robe, and then helped him change into his regular clothes.

Jing Yu enjoyed her delicate movements so much that his tone softened uncontrollably.

"If you are not satisfied with the person Ya Po brought, you can change her. Why did you only choose one maid?"

Qianxue kept untying her belt, and explained the reasons she had thought about for a long time: "I don't need so many people to serve you right now. It's better to teach Ah Zhi first, and let Ah Zhi teach her if necessary later." That’s it.”
