Chapter 119: Apprenticeship, the Four Maids
Miao Yue said seriously, "I am the daughter of an official family. I should be obedient and learn housekeeping and embroidery in my boudoir. When I am old enough, I will obey my parents and get married."
"I originally thought that this would be my life forever, but after meeting Sister Xia, I no longer think so."
"I want to be like Sister Xia, a smart, courageous, wise, and free-spirited person."
"In just two days, I felt a different life. Women do not only have to marry, take care of their husbands and raise children."
Yu Banxia curled her lips and smiled: "Okay, I will accept you as my disciple, but it will not only be a hardship."
"Master, please accept my disciple's greetings." Miao Yue was very smart and knelt down and kowtowed to become his disciple.
Yu Banxia smiled and helped her up: "We can discuss our own affairs then, and you can still call me sister."
"No, once a teacher, always a teacher." Miaoyue was very persistent about this.
"Sister, that's great, that's great." Miaolan clapped her hands happily. She was happy for her sister.
Miao Yue smiled happily, and the carriage slowly stopped: "Girl, we are home."
"Okay." Yu Banxia responded. When she heard the foot pedal being put down, she pushed the door open and went out, just in time to meet the eyes of Uncle Yan Ping who came on horseback.
Looking at the gifts behind him, Yu Banxia's mouth twitched.
"Sister, look, this is the young man." Miaolan also saw Uncle Yanping and pulled Miaoyue excitedly.
Miao Yue looked over and saw that he was indeed a handsome man. The Young Master Mo Ruyu mentioned in the book might be like this.
Looking at my own master again, they are indeed a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, a perfect match.
"Why are you here so early?" Yu Banxia asked curiously after getting off the car.
Uncle Yan Ping also got off his horse and walked towards her: "I wanted to see you earlier. Did you have fun today?"
"Don't you know?" Yu Banxia looked at him with amusement. She knew that Yingsha had been guarding her all the time.
"I have found you a few maids who are skilled in martial arts. They are all reliable people. You can use them with confidence. I feel more at ease with them by your side."
Uncle Yan Ping looked at her, and Yu Banxia also looked at him: "You have arranged everything. If you reject it, it would be a waste of your kindness."
"Then I'll call them over later." Uncle Yan Ping hurriedly called Xuanfeng over. After listening, Xuanfeng nodded and went to do it.
"Let's go in and talk." Yu Banxia invited him into the house to talk.
Uncle Yan Ping nodded, and Yu Banxia said to the Miaoyue sisters, "Let's go."
"We're coming." Miaolan responded quickly, pulling her sister to follow behind her, and a group of people entered the Qian family.
Zhang Wanqing had already received the news and was waiting in the hall early.
She seemed to be holding the bowl calmly, but in fact her eyes were looking outside all the time. It was not until she saw Yu Banxia and others walking towards the hall that she pretended to be calm and drank her tea.
As soon as Yu Banxia entered the hall, she noticed her discomfort and raised the corners of her mouth. This stepmother really treated her like her own daughter.
Originally, I should let my parents and relatives meet him first, but they happen to be in the county town now, so I can only talk about it later.
"Mom, I'm back." Yu Banxia said to Zhang Wanqing.
Zhang Wanqing quickly put down the tea bowl and looked at them: "Hey, did you have fun today? This is Master Yan, right?"
"My name is Uncle Yan Ping, nice to meet you, Madam Qian." Uncle Yan Ping bowed to Zhang Wanqing.
Zhang Wanqing was stunned on the spot. Uncle Yan Ping?
The eldest son of Ningguo family?
"Who are you?" Zhang Wanqing looked at Uncle Yan Ping. Why did he look different from the one she had seen before?
Uncle Yan Ping nodded calmly: "I am."
"Mom, this is not his real appearance. It's a human skin mask I made for him." Miaolan just needed to urinate, so Miaoyue went with her.
Since they were all family now, Yu Banxia said it directly.
"Xia Xia, do you know his identity?" Zhang Wanqing looked at her daughter worriedly. This was the eldest son of the Duke's family.
Although her family status is not low, but compared with the Duke...
"I know, mother." Yu Banxia knew what she was worried about and nodded in response.
Seeing that there was no one else around, Zhang Wanqing said directly: "Master Yan, I will say something directly. Although I am not Xia Xia's biological mother, I sincerely treat her as my own daughter."
"I only have this one daughter, and I will never accept her as a concubine."
"Don't worry, Madam Qian. Xia'er will be Uncle Ping's only wife in this life."
"Three years ago, Uncle Ping made great contributions and obtained an imperial decree, which allowed me to decide my own marriage."
Zhang Wanqing felt relieved instantly when she heard this.
"I am relieved that you have this intention. I will not say anything else."
Uncle Yan Ping knew that he had passed muster with his future mother-in-law.
"Xia'er, this is prepared for you." Uncle Yan Ping took out two property deeds, and Yu Banxia took them and took a look.
It turned out to be a shop on the central street. This kind of shop is not easy to buy. He has only been in the county town for two days. I am afraid he must have spent a lot of money to buy it.
"Thank you." Yu Banxia didn't bother to be polite and took it directly.
Uncle Yan Ping introduced the shops to her: "The shop on the left used to sell rouge and powder. It just so happened that he was going to the capital city. When I asked him to buy something, the owner immediately made a move."
"The shop on the right sells groceries. They said they will move out within six days. You can use it to open a dim sum shop or a restaurant when the time comes."
"Both of these houses have bunk beds and a backyard, which is not small," Uncle Yan Ping introduced to Yu Banxia.
Yu Banxia put away the deed and said with a smile, "You are so thoughtful."
"For you, it's worth it." Uncle Yan Ping laughed softly. Zhang Wanqing looked at the good atmosphere between the two of them and her face was full of smiles.
"Young Master!" Yu Banxia had just asked him to sit down when Xuanfeng led four women and followed He Sheng to the hall.
Uncle Yan Ping asked him to stand aside, then looked at the four women and said, "From now on, Xia'er will be your master."
"Yes." The four girls knelt down and saluted at the same time.
"My name is Liuli." Liuli has an outstanding appearance, tall and thin, wearing goose yellow clothes.
"My name is Shuanghua." Shuanghua is a cold beauty with a nice figure and ice-blue clothes.
"I am Xingyu." Xingyu is petite and cute, wearing purple clothes.
"My name is Feiying." Feiying has a beautiful face and wears peach-red clothes.
"I have met you, my master. I will serve you loyally in the future and never betray you. If I do, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."
The four girls expressed their loyalty at the same time.
"Master, the oath has been made, and they have been tested for you. They are all reliable and loyal people. You can use them with confidence."
"Okay." Yu Banxia responded.
"Get up!" Yu Banxia looked at the four people, and the four girls stood up and looked at her.
Yu Banxia asked the four people, "Since you were chosen to come here, I guess you all have some special skills, right?"
Although she and Uncle Yan Ping had only known each other for a short time, based on her understanding of him, these four women could not be too simple.
