The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 34 As Long as You Have Me in Your Heart

The girl's body softened, and she knelt down politely and replied, "I am Chunxiang, your servant, meeting the young lady."

Lin Mowan didn't ask any more questions, but turned to look at the old lady: "Old lady, I want her."

The old lady didn't say anything. She looked at Chunxiang and nodded: "Okay, she looks like a skillful girl."

Lin Mowan smiled, then casually skipped a few insignificant parts and returned to Feiqing Courtyard.

Inside the house, she dismissed the maids and servants she had chosen, and asked Yuzhi and Taohong to arrange their own tasks, leaving Chunxiang alone.

Lin Mowan sat aside, on the table were various spices ground into powder that had been prepared long ago. She had recently become interested in making perfumes, although she had only learned the basics from Liu Yinghong in her spare time, but perhaps because she found it interesting recently, she would make some simple ones herself from time to time.

"Do you know why I chose you?" Lin Mowan asked, but her hand did not stop scooping the spices into the scale one spoonful at a time.

Chunxiang stood beside her, lowering her eyes, with a calm expression, even with a faint smile, and replied respectfully: "I know, Aunt Hong has told me, everything is up to Miss Lin."

Lin Mowan smiled with satisfaction, put down the spoon in her hand, took out a small package from her sleeve and handed it to her. She gladly took it and carefully put it away.

As time went on, the snow fell more and more frequently. The snow from the previous night had not completely melted yet, but it would start to fall again the next day, often making it impossible to walk.

When Jiang Youxi lifted the house arrest, it was already the end of the year and every household had begun to prepare for New Year's Eve. The weather would occasionally clear up and the sun would shine, but the snow would not melt.

When she had nothing to do, Lin Mowan would go to sit in the pavilion in the small garden of the mansion, embroidering or reading a book. When the weather was good, Jiang Ruixue would take Jiang Youan to play on the other side, so they did not interfere with each other.

Every noon, Lin Mowan would get up and go back. Until one day, when she just walked out of the pavilion with Chunxiang, she ran into Jiang Youxi who was panting. He looked like he had just hurried here.

Looking at the person in front of him, he tried to adjust his breathing. Lin Mowan smiled slightly and spoke first: "Young Master, what a coincidence, are you okay?"

When she said this, her face was filled with uncontrollable worry. Jiang Youxi shook his head, and took a step forward with joy in his eyes, holding her hand. Before he could say anything, he caught a glimpse of a red shadow out of the corner of his eye.

He was slightly startled and his gaze subconsciously moved over. As expected, it was Chunxiang. Looking at the pretty beauty in front of him, Jiang Youxi was a little dazed and even forgot that he was still holding Lin Mowan's hand.

Lin Mowan was not in a hurry either, she just looked at him quietly.

Chunxiang is beautiful and has a voluptuous figure. In the words of men, she is a natural foxy girl. Moreover, she is a girl from Yuxianglou, so she naturally knows how to seduce men. Every look and movement of hers reveals irresistible hints.

After a long while, Lin Mowan seemed to have discovered something. She pulled his hand and called softly, "Young Master?"

Jiang Youxi came back to his senses when he heard Lin Mowan's voice. After he reacted, he looked at Lin Mowan with a guilty and nervous look, as if he was afraid that Lin Mowan would be angry.

But Lin Mowan looked at him and enthusiastically introduced Chunxiang beside her, saying: "Her name is Chunxiang. She was sent by the old lady when the mansion recruited new people a while ago. Does the young master like her?"

Facing Lin Mowan's puzzled question, Jiang Youxi neither shook his head nor nodded, but carefully observed Lin Mowan's expression. As if he could see his hesitation, Lin Mowan continued, "It's okay. If you like, let Chunxiang serve you. Anyway, I'm not short of people around me."

Seeing her so generous, Jiang Youxi was delighted at first, but then he was deeply puzzled. After thinking for a while, he frowned and said, "Sister Wan, you won't be angry if I like someone else?"

As he spoke, his eyes gradually showed some doubt and grievance. Lin Mowan looked at him, held his hand in return, and smiled helplessly and dotingly: "Silly boy, it's nothing strange for a man to have three wives and four concubines. As long as you have me in your heart, I will be happy." As Lin Mowan said this, Jiang Youxi met her undisguised admiring eyes, and felt a burst of warmth and emotion in his heart. His sister Wan was so considerate, how could anyone not like her.

Compared to someone as controlling as Gongshu Tingyue, Jiang Youxi had long been unable to stand his mother's desire to control his father. Most of the time, his father was like a powerless head of the family at home, without even the right to take a concubine.

He had thought countless times that he did not want to marry a wife like this in the future. From morning to night, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, there were endless quarrels and cold wars. When things got serious, they even went to physical combat.

He looked at her, his eyes became more and more passionate and touching, and even tears welled up in his eyes. In order to stop entangled with him, Lin Mowan let go of his hand, and gently stroked his cheek with her soft and slender fingers. She said, "Silly boy, why are you crying? I've said that I won't be jealous, but you can't leave me just because Chunxiang is good. I will be angry too."

Jiang Youxi's eyes darkened, and he raised his hand to hug Lin Mowan. Lin Mowan's body stiffened slightly, and she suppressed the disgust and nausea from inside out, hugged him, and patted his back gently to comfort him.

He rested his chin on her shoulder and whispered, "Sister Wan, you are so nice. I will never forget you. I like you very much, especially."

Listening to his heartfelt confession, Lin Mowan did not answer him. When she gently pushed him away, the impatience and cruelty on her face were replaced by a gentle smile.

After watching them walk away until they could no longer be seen, the smile on Lin Mowan's face gradually disappeared. She took a long breath, brushed off the non-existent dust on her body, and turned back to Feiqing Courtyard.

As soon as she entered the room, Yuzhi, who was tidying up the desk, saw that Lin Mowan was alone, so she hurried to greet her. After Lin Mowan entered the room, she helped her take off her cloak, shook off the coldness on it, and hung it aside.

Lin Mowan walked to the table and sat down. Yuzhi looked outside, a little puzzled: "Miss, where is Chunxiang?"

"I gave it to Jiang Youxi."

She said it lightly, without even looking up at Yuzhi's surprised expression. She drank her tea calmly and picked up a book to read.

Lin Mowan didn't explain anything more. Yuzhi wanted to say something for a few times but stopped herself. Seeing Lin Mowan so calm, it seemed that what she gave to Jiang Youxi was not a person, but just an object.

Seeing this, even if Yuzhi wanted to ask something, she was speechless for a moment and could only lower her head and do her work silently.

As the weather gradually became colder, the house became warm. Xiao Sanhua also lazily lay on the bed and slept. When she was hungry, she would get up and call out to Lin Mowan or Yuzhi. After she was full, she would find a warm place to continue sleeping. Occasionally, she would play with Lin Mowan. This cold winter was not over yet, but she had gained weight again.

After Chunhe was sent to Jiang Youxi, it was said that Jiang Youxi became much more obedient. Even the old lady and Jiang Wenqing were puzzled. It seemed that Chunhe had a way.

Until someone came to report that Chunhe was driven out of the Jiang Mansion by Gongshu Tingyue. It was a rare clear night. When the maid from Jiang Youxi's yard came to report, Lin Mowan had just come out of the bath and was sitting in front of the mirror dressing.

Yuzhi was a little surprised, but when she looked at Lin Mowan, she found that Lin Mowan was just combing a strand of long hair in front of her with an indifferent expression, as if she had expected it. She asked the girl calmly: "What about the young master? How is he?"

The girl knelt on the ground, obviously in some embarrassment, but after struggling for a while, she whispered: "The eldest young master has been confined again. Madam and the master have secretly invited a doctor. I heard that these days, the girl named Chunhe tricked the eldest young master into smoking a lot of opium."

After hearing this, Lin Mowan couldn't help but snorted softly, which seemed to be slightly sarcastic and was heard by the girl. The girl was obviously unable to react and was stunned.
