Chapter 41

In the days that followed, Wen's family was calm, and nothing seemed to change.But the fact that there were two more people in the Wen family couldn't be concealed. Although the servants in the mansion didn't dare to talk too much, the atmosphere had already changed uncontrollably.Since that day, Yuzhi hasn't been out of Boyuju except to say hello, maybe she thinks it's better not to meet Ji Li during this period of time, so she doesn't go out at all.

But even though the plan was very good, sometimes it had to be changed, because Yuzhi remembered that Aqin would have to see her again, and since she fainted last time, she, the sister-in-law, hadn't visited her yet.In addition, Wen Zhaoling didn't want her to hide like this at first, and advised her to relax, so she went out with Que Ya'er, and went to see Aqin openly.

There was nothing serious about Aqin this time, it was just a little bit of stimulation. Although she had warned herself before to look at things more openly, and even stop thinking about everything about Wu Jili, at first she knew that he was her Brother, it's still a little hard to accept.She really couldn't imagine that she fell in love with her brother before, which really made her feel ashamed.

When Yuzhi saw her, she was lying on the bed with her face covered by the quilt as if she didn't want to see others.Yuzhi originally prepared a lot of words to comfort her, but at this time, she couldn't say anything at all.At first she thought that Aqin was just a child with the heart, and it would be fine if she figured it out after a while. Wen Zhaoling also told her so, but looking at it now, it seems that this is not the case anymore.It seemed that Aqin was sincerely moved, which made her feel difficult.

In the end, she couldn't say anything. Yuzhi knew that Aqin would not be able to recover completely for a while, as if nothing had happened, so she just said some insignificant words. From the interesting things I heard in Mingyue Temple to the stories I read from the storybook, I told her all of them, not even comforting.In the end, he only said that he would come again next time, got up and left.She wasn't sure if these words were useful, but at least it could distract her, and stop staring at this matter all the time, making herself more and more uncomfortable.

Before leaving, she asked Aqin's personal servant girl to take good care of her, and to tell her in time if there was anything, and then she took Queya'er and left Aqin's yard.

The two walked around the garden along the corridor, and when they were about to reach Boyuju, they suddenly saw a figure flashing past in front of them.Que Ya'er was startled and almost cried out, Yuzhi covered her mouth and whispered in her ear: "Don't scream, it seems to be Fuqin, let's go and have a look."

But Ya'er looked at her in disbelief, "Miss, it's just you...Aren't you afraid of getting lost?"

Yuzhi flicked her forehead, "Don't talk nonsense, go and see with me, didn't you see that she was running just now? It's broad daylight, why is she running when she has nothing to do? There must be something urgent, let's go Take a look." As he spoke, he couldn't help but quickly followed.

Que Ya'er sighed, thinking that the young lady had really been bored in Wen's house for a long time, and it was rare to see something strange at the moment, so of course she couldn't bear her temper.Although reluctant, Que Ya'er worried that Yuzhi would get lost, so she hurriedly followed.

That person was indeed Fuqin, with a small package in his arms, walking on tiptoe, almost like a thief.Yuzhi was curious, but she couldn't find out, so she had to follow her on tiptoe, making herself look like a thief.Fortunately, no one lost her way, otherwise she would have lost her way long ago.

When Que Ya'er followed her, the two of them had already followed Fuqin to the gate of the backyard.Seeing her stop, Yuzhi and Que Ya'er quickly shrank back and hid behind the rockery on one side, only showing a pair of eyes to watch her movements.

Fuqin looked around and plucked the hair between her forehead, Yuzhi found that her forehead was dripping with sweat, it was still spring, what made her so embarrassed?
Just as she was wondering, Fuqin looked around again, and seemed to be sure that there was no one around, so she walked to the door, knocked on the door panel a few times, and then someone knocked on the door outside, a very depressing voice Passed in: "How is it, brought it?"

Fuqin opened the door, looked behind her again, leaned out, and took out the things in her arms.Yuzhi only saw a pair of rough and dark hands snatch the small package over, and whimpered something.

Que Ya'er whispered in Yu Zhi's ear: "Miss, Fu Qin seems to be giving and receiving in private."

Yuzhi also guessed this, nodded, and said in a low voice: "It seems to be from her family."

As soon as the words fell, I heard Fuqin shout: "Who?"

Yuzhi was startled, turned her head to look, and found that she had seen her, and before she could hide, Fuqin had already pushed the people outside, and then quickly closed the door.

Yuzhi didn't know whether to continue to hide or leave quickly, but now it has been discovered that this is the truth.

Fuqin closed the door and walked over slowly, but the flustered look just now disappeared.Yuzhi thought for a while, and had no choice but to walk out from behind the rockery.

Fuqin looked at her expression and lowered her head, "Eldest young mistress has seen it all. Fuqin has done something wrong. Eldest young mistress can go and tell his wife."

Yuzhi has never had a good impression of Fuqin, mainly due to the trouble when she first got married. Usually, she looks respectful on the surface but actually arrogant, but now she looks depressed. When she said this, she was like Like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Yu Zhi glanced at the closed door, then her eyes fell on Fu Qin again, "Is that your family?"

Fuqin pursed her lips and did not speak. After savoring the meaning of Yuzhi's words, she seemed to have no other meaning, then nodded, "Yes, that's my elder brother." Maybe she felt that she was caught anyway. , Fuqin didn't hide it anymore, "Something happened in my family, so I gave some money to my eldest brother, but it was all the money I saved. If the eldest and youngest mistress doesn't believe me, then go and tell the madam to make a decision."

Yuzhi frowned, "Fuqin, why do you keep telling Madam and sound like you are urging me to tell my mother-in-law? Could it be that you really want me to tell her?"

Fu Qin lowered her head and didn't look at her, her sweaty hair stuck to her forehead, covering her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking. "Young Mistress, Ming people don't speak dark words. Fuqin has disrespected Mistress a lot before, and I don't expect Mistress to let me go."

"Oh, so I am such a villain in your eyes?"

Yu Zhi unconsciously crossed her waist, raised her eyebrows and squinted at her.This look is still very playful on her, but Que Ya'er has a headache, and it's coming again!She tugged on Yuzhi's sleeve, implying that she should pay attention.Yuzhi came back to her senses, quickly lowered her hand, and coughed: "Don't worry, I won't tell my mother-in-law. Since you said that the money is yours, then I will believe you once."

Fuqin looked up at her in disbelief, and then showed a doubtful expression, "Is what the young mistress said true?"

"Of course it's true." Yu Zhi patted her clothes and waved to Que Ya'er, "Que Ya'er, let's go."

Just about to turn around and leave, Fuqin called her again: "Eldest young mistress..."

Yuzhi knew that she was still suspicious, turned to look at her and sighed, "Okay, I really don't like you, but that was before, depending on your behavior today, you must be a family-loving person, so Just pretend that I have never been here today, you don't have to take it to heart, and just pretend that you haven't met me."

After speaking, he took Que Ya'er and left, his steps brisk.

Fuqin stood there in a daze, unable to react for a while.Unexpectedly, Yuzhi in front stopped suddenly after walking a few steps, turned her head and said to her seriously: "By the way, you can stop thinking about the young master in the future, so I can rest assured."

This time she left directly after finishing speaking, without looking back.

But Fuqin couldn't get back to her senses, she seemed to be meeting the young mistress for the first time, she didn't expect that she was still a jealous woman.She smiled wryly, even if she thought about it, it was useless, how could the young master have a crush on her?Sighing, he raised his foot and walked forward.She was lucky this time, and she would never dare again in the future.

Turning a corner, she was about to rush to Mrs. Wen's yard, but a person blocked her way.She looked up, and it turned out to be Zhucui, Jin's maid.

"I've been looking for you everywhere, where have you been?" Zhucui took out a handkerchief and wiped her sweat, "I'm still sweating so much, it's like you've been fished out of the water."

Fuqin blocked her hand, "What's the matter? Do you need me?"

Zhucui nodded, "Of course I came to call you because of something, so go to Shuquan's residence quickly."

Fu Qin froze for a moment, "You follow the second young lady, how do you send a letter for the third young lady?"

"Tch, what's so strange about this, I used to be the girl next to the third young lady, and it was the third young lady who gave me to the second young lady, so I followed the second young lady." Zhucui smiled and pushed her, "Hurry up Go, Third Young Mistress must be waiting impatiently."

Although Fuqin felt strange, but Mrs. Li was the master, of course she had to go to find her, so she hurried to Shuquanju.

Speaking of which, there was hardly any maid around Li Shi. Fuqin hadn't noticed it before, but now she realized that she gave her maid to Second Young Mistress Jin Shi.In the past Zhu Cui said those personal things to her, and she had nothing to hide from her, but now thinking about it, she feels that it is very inappropriate.

Fuqin was definitely not a simple-minded person who was able to get into the position of Mrs. Wen's personal maid in the Wen family at a young age, otherwise Mrs. Wen would not have thought of giving her to Wen Zhaoling as a roommate.So now she thought about the things before and after Zhucui together, and immediately regretted it.

At the beginning, when she talked to Zhucui about her confidant, many of them were about personal matters, and she even complained that Yuzhi's entry made her unable to do Wen Zhaoling's housekeeping.It was no problem before, after all, the Second Young Mistress Jin is a carefree person, she would definitely not ask Zhu Cui about these things, but it would be different if Zhu Cui talked about these things with Li Shi.Fuqin has always felt that Li Shi doesn't like to talk, but her thoughts are very delicate.The more she thought about it, the more something was wrong, she even felt that some of her words were tricked by Zhu Cui at the beginning, and now she came to pass on the message for Li Shi, could it be that what she said back then was taken advantage of?But Mrs. Li didn't have much contact with her, so it shouldn't be because of this, right?
All the way to the door of Shuquan's residence, Fuqin took out a handkerchief from her arms and wiped her face, adjusted her skirt a little, and walked in.The location of Shuquan's residence is not as remote as that of Boyu's residence, but the atmosphere is very deserted.Entering the entrance of the main room, Fuqin immediately saw Mrs. Li sitting at the round table in the middle, dressed in elegant white clothes, admiring a painting on the table, which seemed to be a picture of a snow scene.

Before Fuqin opened her mouth to salute, Li Shi had already spotted her, and waved to her with a smile, "Fuqin, come in."

Fuqin seldom saw her smile, this smile was gentle and moving, she let go of her guard slightly, and walked in respectfully, "I don't know why the third young mistress is looking for a servant girl?"

Mrs. Li stared down at the picture of the snow scene, and smiled faintly, "Fuqin, I heard that recently you are often ordered by your mother-in-law to give the Eldest Young Master some healing medicine, isn't it?"

Fuqin was a little puzzled, and didn't know what to ask about this matter, but she nodded, "There is such a thing."

Li's voice was calm and calm: "Do you know what the medicine is for?"

"This... I don't know." Of course she knew, but how would she say it to an innocent girl?
"Perhaps the mother-in-law hopes to hold her eldest grandson as soon as possible."

Mrs. Li laughed lightly. To Fuqin's ears, she felt that she seemed to be really happy, but she still didn't understand the purpose of calling herself here.

"By the way, Fuqin, I heard that something happened in your family, but are you in trouble?"

Fuqin was taken aback by Mrs. Li's sudden words, "No, nothing, the maidservant's house is fine."

Mrs. Li looked her up and down, smiled, "Why are you so flustered? I just asked casually."

She rolled up the scroll bit by bit.Fuqin also knew a few words. When she reached the end of the paper, she caught sight of the word Zhaoling, and immediately understood that it was written by the young master.

"Fuqin, you can't be a maid all the time, it's a pity, have you thought about it?" Li Shi rolled up the scroll in his hand, and fastened it carefully with a ribbon.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Fuqin's mind, as if she understood something, she lowered her eyes and said in a low voice: "Fuqin is just a maid, just do your job well."

Mrs. Li stood up with a smile, walked to her side, and whispered in her ear, "I have an idea for you. You just need to tell your mother-in-law about one thing, and I believe you will have a chance to succeed soon." She stretched out her hand Patted Fuqin on the shoulder, "Fuqin, you should know why Madam asked you to deliver those medicines, make up your mind as soon as possible."

Fuqin stabilized her mind, tried not to show surprise, and asked her quietly: "What is the matter that the third young lady said?"
