Chapter 38: Xuanping Hou Mansion Sends Thank You Gift
Yin Yao bowed and said, "I understand."
Xie Lingyun opened his mouth, wanting to say that he had repaid the favor and his mother didn't have to waste money anymore.
But on second thought, it’s not bad to have something for my mother to worry about.
After taking two sips of tea, Xie Lingyun had some official business to attend to, so he said a few words and left.
After he left, Doctor Qian was called to He Peilan by the servants.
He Peilan didn't beat around the bush and asked directly about Jiang Qingyue.
My son doesn't like women, so when he tells a story, he is very brief and doesn't give any details.
How can you eat melon without eating it in detail?
Doctor Qian sat down, took a sip of tea, and then described what happened in the Jiang family in a vivid and detailed manner.
I heard that this girl was beaten a few days ago, and today she was beaten by her brother until she vomited blood. He Peilan's face has become completely gloomy.
"I know some parents are partial, but I didn't expect Madam Jiang to be so partial."
"When I arrived at Miss Qingyue's courtyard, not only was there no servant to serve her, but the courtyard was completely desolate. There wasn't even a pot of charcoal in the room, and even the food stank."
Bang!
He Peilan threw the teacup beside her and said, "The Jiang family is simply deceiving us. If her family can't raise that girl well, bring her to the Marquis' Mansion and I'll raise her."
Jin Yao quickly took a handkerchief to wipe her hands, while persuading her: "Now that the Jiang family knows that Miss Qingyue is the old lady's savior, and the Marquis' Mansion has sent such a valuable thank-you gift, I believe the Jiang family will not dare to neglect her anymore."
As he was speaking, a servant suddenly came to report that Xie Shuyan had returned home.
He Peilan was delighted and hurried to see her.
Before Xie Shuyan reached the main hall, He Peilan had already arrived.
The girl was bright and delicate, with slightly curved willow-shaped eyebrows with a soft arc, and a pair of clear and dark almond-shaped eyes. She was wrapped in a fiery red cloak, which made her lips and teeth look even redder.
Having not seen her daughter for a long time, she had grown a lot taller but also thinner. He Peilan burst into tears.
Xie Shuyan opened her mouth, but no sound came out. She just bowed silently.
He Peilan held her hand, her voice trembling with excitement.
"Mother has found you a good doctor who will definitely be able to cure your muteness."
Jiang family.
Because they moved to the Begonia Garden, Mrs. Jiang stayed in Jiang Guiyu's room to comfort her for several days, until the servants came to report that someone from the Xuanping Marquis's Mansion had come.
When Mrs. Jiang heard that the gifts were sent from the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion, she did not care.
"Just send it directly to the warehouse."
The servant hesitated and finally said, "Madam, the people from the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion said that these things are for Miss Qingyue and need to be delivered to Miss Qingyue personally."
Jiang Guiyu's face changed slightly. Mrs. Jiang frowned, afraid that Jiang Guiyu would think too much, so she comforted him with a few more words.
"Guiyu, mother will be back soon."
If it were in the past, Mrs. Jiang would definitely take Jiang Guiyu with her.
But what happened at the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion that day had already taught Mrs. Jiang a lesson.
As soon as she left, Jiang Guiyu dropped the cushion he was leaning on.
"Send it directly? Are you trying to protect me, an outsider?"
Cuizhu is dull and not as good at coaxing people as Jinxiu, so she just obediently picked up the cushion thrown on the ground.
Jiang Guiyu called her and said, "Come and take a look. Be smart. We are not like before. We are afraid of being caught in the wrong."
"I already lost Jinxiu, and I can't live without you anymore."
Cuizhu's eyes were filled with tears. "Don't worry, Miss. I will pay attention to it."
Jiang Guiyu bit her lip until she smelled blood and then let go.
Except for Cuizhu, all the servants were replaced by Jiang Shouye.
She only has Cuizhu to use now, and she hopes that Cuizhu can be as dedicated and hardworking as Jinxiu.
On her way to Qingfeng Garden, Mrs. Jiang saw the guards from the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion carrying seven or eight boxes of things and walking towards her.
She knew that the Xuanping Marquisate was always generous, but she thought it was just a thank-you gift, at most some centuries-old ginseng and some jewelry.
But she didn't expect that the Xuanping Marquis Mansion would be so generous.
"Madam, look at this..."
Only after the maid behind her reminded her did Mrs. Jiang see that the boxes of things were actually large pieces of furniture.
Her eyebrows jumped violently and she quickened her pace to chase after him.
Seeing that it was Yin Yao who came, Mrs. Jiang felt more strange.
"Miss Yin Yao, this is..."
Yin Yao bowed to her and said, "Our old lady knows that the third young lady of the mansion was your savior that day, so she specially asked me to bring some gifts of thanks. They are all worthless things, so I hope Madam Jiang will not despise them."
"Our old lady said that the Xuanping Marquis Mansion and the Jiang family are one family. Now there is an additional layer of gratitude. The old lady will definitely treat the third young lady as her own daughter."
Before Madam Jiang could say thank you, Yin Yao said in panic, "Oh, I didn't ask carefully. The young lady you just brought back should be called the Third Young Lady, right? You can't call her Miss Qingyue. It sounds like she's a cousin from outside."
Mrs. Jiang looked a little unnatural, and just nodded with a stiff smile.
"Yes, everyone in the mansion calls her the Third Miss."
Yin Yao smiled along, acting politely.
Mrs. Jiang tightened the handkerchief in her hand and found it was a little wet. Then she remembered that she had spent a long time wiping Jiang Guiyu's tears.
Looking down, I saw that the fine silk handkerchief was already wrinkled and looked very undignified.
She calmly covered it with her sleeve, looked at the large pieces of furniture, and asked Yin Yao again.
"Is that what your old lady meant?"
Yin Yao smiled and said, "These are the intentions of our prince."
In fact, it was all the old lady's idea.
However, the old lady felt that the brothers of the Jiang family favored the second young lady, so she let the Jiang family know that even if there was no biological brother who favored her, she was still loved and spoiled by her cousin, Prince Xie.
What's more, he is a cousin who is not easy to mess with.
Mrs. Jiang smiled awkwardly and shifted her gaze to look at the gifts. It was obvious that these large items were all expensive.
Only the room of the eldest daughter Jiang Wanyin can compare to these.
But Wanyin was the county princess bestowed by the royal family.
The guards of the Marquis' Mansion had already noticed it. Cuizhu, who was hiding in the distance and watching, did not dare to follow and could only hurried back to report.
As they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at Qingfeng Garden.
Yin Yao stood at the gate and was reluctant to go in. "Mrs. Jiang, is this the Third Young Lady's courtyard? Am I in the right place?"
Mrs. Jiang's face was a little embarrassed, but there was still a trace of relief in her heart.
Fortunately, Guiyu has moved to Haitangyuan, and Yuehuaxuan is being cleaned. Someone has to clean it quickly so that Qingyue can move in.
Otherwise, the people in the Marquis’ Mansion would see it next time and think that Qingyue was being treated harshly.
"Of course not. This is Qingfeng Garden, where she's staying temporarily. It's close to her eldest sister's courtyard, so that's why she's been arranged here. Her courtyard is Yuehuaxuan, which has the best view. She's currently cleaning and tidying it up, and she'll be moving there tomorrow."
Yin Yao nodded, "I see, I was mistaken."
Mrs. Jiang breathed a sigh of relief.
Take your men and go in quickly.
Que'er had already woken up and even cried for a while beside Jiang Qingyue's bed. When she heard the noise and went to the door, she was immediately shocked.
"Miss, the lady sent a lot of things to our yard."
"This young lady is wrong. These things were sent by our Xuanping Marquis Mansion."
