Chapter 148: Getting more arrogant

Not wanting to be a fish anymore, Zhu Xuntao, who was "fried" by Xiao Jingzhan over and over again, shuddered and quickly closed her eyes:

"Sleep, sleep, I'm asleep, don't bother me!"

Zhu Xuntao was really tired of Xiao Jingzhan.

Once she closed her eyes, she didn't think about anything. After a few breaths, her breathing became light and long.

After making sure that Zhu Xuntao was asleep, Xiao Jingzhan moved one hand and gently covered Zhu Xuntao's lower abdomen,

as if there was another treasure that he cherished very much, and took good care of it.

Time passed in an orderly manner, and the speed would not change because of anyone's mood.

Days passed one by one, and the person who was expected to look forward to it for a long time finally got a response.

"Miss, my brother is back!"

When mentioning Yijia, Qiufen's eyes widened and she was very excited.

She felt that the name her parents gave her brother was right.

Originally, her parents wanted to spend a dozen coins to find a student in the village to name her brother.

Later, when her father heard that her brother's name was given by someone else, he was not satisfied and thought it was not nice.

Suddenly, he thought of something like Yijia, Eryi, Sanbing, Siding, and he named her brother Yijia.

Now look, this name is very suitable for her brother.

"Back?!"

Hearing that Yijia was back, Zhu Yingyan was naturally very happy:

"Hurry up and bring your brother in to answer, I want to ask him in detail."

If it was in the past, Qiufen would be a little embarrassed by Zhu Yingyan's order.

How could she bring a man from outside into the inner house casually, even if this man from outside was her biological brother. If

she wanted to see her biological brother, she could only go to the small side hall or the back door.

But since Zhu Yingyan got Zhu Dingxing's recognition last time, her status in the Zhu Mansion has greatly improved.

The meaning of being recognized by Mrs. Sun and being recognized by Zhu Dingxing are completely different.

Zhu Yingyan found that after getting Zhu Dingxing's recognition, her actions were more convenient than before.

Butler Wang dared not ignore her anymore, and he dared not disobey what she said. Zhu Yingyan

felt great with this feeling.

This reminded her of the treatment she received when she first entered the East Palace and became the prince's woman, so high and mighty.

How could the Zhu Mansion be compared with the prince's mansion?

Zhu Yingyan either didn't want to marry, or if she did, she would marry the best.

Even without Xiao Jingzhan, she could still find a man who was better than Xiao Jingzhan and no less capable than the prince!

She never took the Zhu Mansion seriously.

"Yes, Miss."

This was the first time Yijia had been away from home for so long, and Qiufen and her parents had been missing him terribly.

It was a rare opportunity to use Zhu Yingyan as an excuse to meet her brother, so there was no reason for Qiufen to refuse.

In fact, when she heard that Yijia was coming back, Qiufen's first reaction was to call a servant and

ask the servant to take Yijia to his room and prepare clean clothes for Yijia to wash and change into.

Before going to pick up Yijia this time, Qiufen ran to the kitchen again and asked the cook to give her the cakes that she had asked to be prepared earlier, so that

she could take them with her and give them to her brother.

These were all prepared by Qiufen for Yijia in advance, and had nothing to do with Zhu Yingyan.

Of course, there were some smart people in the kitchen.

Besides, how could they not know what Zhu Yingyan liked?

Therefore, these people knew that the cakes Qiufen asked them to make were not for Zhu Yingyan at all.

Everyone was very dissatisfied with this:

"No matter how favored the eldest lady is, what does it have to do with Qiufen? Qiufen is just like us, a servant of the mansion."

"Look at her frivolous behavior. She still thinks she is the eldest lady and orders us around like servants?"

"How can a maid like her be qualified to distribute the things in this mansion?!"

"What are you so proud of!"

As servants, they neither got any benefits from the eldest lady nor Qiufen . When

Qiufen assigned them to do things, those who were older than Qiufen were almost pissed off.

If it weren't for Zhu Yingyan's side, Qiufen was the most favored,

and they would have found an opportunity to deal with Qiufen long ago, and they wouldn't have been so proud.

But they waited, Qiufen was not a smart person, and they would see how long she could stay by the eldest lady's side.

Once the eldest lady gets tired of Autumnal Equinox, it will be a good time for them to take revenge.

"Brother, eat quickly."

Qiufen stuffed a plate of cakes into Yijia's arms in one gulp,

"I asked the kitchen staff to make these cakes. They are still hot and delicious."

"You have been away for so long, doing things for the eldest lady. It is very hard. When you come back, you must let your parents take good care of you. You have lost weight."

Yijia gobbled down the food and almost rolled his eyes because of choking. After drinking a pot of tea,

Yijia wiped his mouth and said, "Sister, I haven't seen you for two months. You are getting more and more favored by the eldest lady. You can even ask people to help you do things?"

Qiufen raised his chin proudly:

"Of course, with me here, brother can always be valued by the eldest lady."

"Our family has finally waited for the day to come."

"Brother, your father was right to name you Yijia."

"Okay, sister, you've made progress, brother will just follow you."

"Where's the eldest lady? I should go see her."

After taking a bath and eating, Yijia felt like he was alive again, and he felt much better.

"Come with me."

Yijia felt better, Qiufen finally remembered Zhu Yingyan, the eldest lady.

When the brother and sister appeared in front of Zhu Yingyan again, Qiufen realized that Zhu Yingyan's face looked a little ugly.

"Miss?"

Qiufen stammered. She didn't expect that the young lady would be unhappy in just a short while.

Zhu Yingyan sneered:

"What a big air. Just because you help me with something, you dare to make me wait for so long?"

"You two... are really good, at least you are brave enough!"

In this world, except Zhu Xuntao, there is no one else who dares to play tricks on her like this. After

all her calculations, the servants around her want to play tricks on her like this after Zhu Xuntao!

Qiufen knelt down quickly:

"I know I was wrong, I just..." She

felt so sorry for her brother...

Qiufen tried to recall that it didn't take much time to get here

. Even if she made the young lady wait, the waiting time was no more than an incense stick.

It wasn't long, why would the young lady be so fussy and make things difficult for them, the servants.

Qiufen didn't say it clearly, but Zhu Yingyan understood it.

Qiufen was too generous and wanted to talk to her about her feelings. There

were definitely more than just Qiufen and his sister who could do things for her.

Since Qiufen didn't want to, she could find someone else.

Now, what she lacked the least was manpower.

Yijia felt something was wrong, and after kneeling down, he kowtowed heavily to Zhu Yingyan and explained earnestly:

"It is my honor to be able to do things for the young lady."

"In order to get the young lady's things done faster, it is nothing for me to sleep in the open air along the way."

"It's just that I can't show my dirty side to the young lady. It's disrespectful to the young lady and will pollute her eyes."
