Chapter 39: Thank you for the gift from Prince?
Yin Yao entered the room and bowed to Jiang Qingyue. She looked up and exclaimed in surprise, "It's exactly the same as our prince's painting."
Jiang Qingyue was stunned.
painting?
Yin Yao cleverly changed the subject and said, "I am the head maidservant to the wife of Marquis Xuanping. Miss Third can just call me Yin Yao. These are the thank-you gifts from our old lady to Miss Third, and the others are from our prince."
Xie Lingyun had no idea that he had done so many good things.
After Yin Yao finished speaking, she looked around the room and her expression suddenly froze.
When she was giving the gifts, she didn't understand why furniture and ornaments were given to a girl. Now that she came to this house, she understood the intention.
This Jiang family is really too much.
"Qingyue, Yuehuaxuan is almost clean. I'll move all these things over to you tomorrow."
Mrs. Jiang smiled lovingly, "That one is closer to mother's yard, and it will be more convenient for us to talk in the future."
She deliberately said this in front of Yin Yao just to save the Jiang family's face.
Jiang Qingyue pursed her lips and chuckled, then replied, "Then why not wait for a better day? Let's move there today. We can just borrow some manpower from the Marquis' Mansion."
Using the manpower from the Marquis' Mansion, does it mean that the Jiang family has no one left?
Mrs. Jiang was about to remind her, but Yin Yao was very happy. "That's great. Use it as a moving gift. Miss San can also take a look at these things and see where to put them when the time comes."
As he spoke, he and Que'er each supported Jiang Qingyue and helped her outside.
"Miss Third, you are too thin. When I return, I will talk to our old lady and ask her to find you some high-quality wild ginseng to nourish you."
Jiang Qingyue was a little overwhelmed by Yin Yao's enthusiasm, but when she caught a glimpse of Mrs. Jiang's deflated look, she felt a little happy.
Yin Yao ordered the guards to open the box, but Jiang Qingyue's attention was attracted by the large items that filled the entire yard.
Were these really sent by Xie Lingyun?
I’m afraid not…
She took advantage of Xie Lingyun and hated herself so much that her teeth itched, but she was not that kind.
Regardless of whether it is true or not, on the surface, it seems like a good thing to have a cousin who is the prince and cares about you.
Jiang Qingyue: "Thank you, aunt and cousin."
"Wow, miss, that's a lot of silver!"
After Que'er screamed, he realized something was wrong and immediately turned sideways and slapped himself twice.
It’s over, I’ve brought shame to the lady.
Yin Yao actually liked Que'er's personality. "Our old lady said that the Third Miss just returned to Yanjing and needs to take care of everything. If she runs out of money, she can just go to the Marquis' Mansion to get it."
The handkerchief that Mrs. Jiang hid in her sleeve was almost torn to pieces.
"I don't know what Miss Third likes. These head ornaments and jewelry were all chosen by me. If you don't like them, I will send you new ones later."
Jiang Qingyue's eyes were almost blinded by the glare.
"No, no, these are enough."
Just as she finished speaking, Cuizhu hurried to the outside of Qingfeng Garden and said, "Madam, the second young lady has moved from Yuehuaxuan to Haitang Garden. Miss Qingyue can move in now."
Did you choose to say it now?
Is he saying that he had taken over the courtyard where Jiang Guiyu lived and got a reputation for bullying his sisters?
Jiang Qingyue curled the corners of her lips and said calmly, "Go back and tell Sister Guiyu that this was prepared for me by my father and mother before I was born. I really can't let it go. Thank you, Sister Guiyu, for taking care of Yuehuaxuan for me all these years."
Yin Yao's expression remained unchanged, and she felt that the third young lady was an interesting... miserable person.
It seems like Mrs. Jiang is seriously ill.
The daughter of my enemy lives in the best yard and uses the best things.
But when his own daughter came back, she lived in such a shabby and remote courtyard.
Yin Yao glanced at the green bamboo at the door and laughed out loud, "That's perfect. The people from the Marquis' Mansion haven't left yet. Let's ask them to help the Third Miss change her things.
If the Second Miss has anything she hasn't moved away, we'll send it to her."
"However, this little girl is so unruly. She doesn't call the Third Miss by her full name. If others hear her, they might think she's a legitimate daughter or a cousin."
Mrs. Jiang's face turned blue and red. After scolding Cuizhu a few words, she also left with her handkerchief swung.
The birds were all stunned.
"Sister Yinyao, you are so amazing."
"We in the Xuanping Marquisate attach great importance to rules. If this happened in our mansion, the maid would have died long ago."
After saying that, Yin Yao helped Jiang Qingyue aside and told people to move all the things from Qingfeng Garden to Yuehuaxuan.
Mrs. Jiang came back with Cuizhu and entered Haitang Garden. Looking at the servants who were moving things, Mrs. Jiang cursed them angrily.
"Hey, Mom, has Sister Qingyue moved in?"
Jiang Guiyu held onto the door frame, his thin body trembling from coughing.
"The people from the Marquis' Mansion are helping her move!"
Jiang Guiyu was stunned. Someone from the Marquis' Mansion?
Jiang Guiyu cried in grievance. They stole her yard, and now they asked people from the Marquis' Mansion to come over. Did they want everyone to know that she couldn't even protect her own yard?
Jiang Guiyu frowned obediently and weakly.
Mrs. Jiang saw that she was hesitant to speak, "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"
Jiang Guiyu bit her lip and whispered, "Sister, you are too willful. Changing courtyards is a family matter. Isn't it a joke for the people in the Marquis' Mansion to get involved?"
Mrs. Jiang's palms tightened, as she always cared a lot about face.
Now, after Jiang Guiyu's reminder, his face turned cold.
Mrs. Jiang could almost imagine how the servants in the Marquis's Mansion would exaggerate the quarrel between the sisters and how she treated her own daughter harshly after returning home.
Is there no one left in the Jiang Mansion? Do they need help from the Marquis Mansion?
Doesn't this indirectly show that Jiang Qingyue is not favored in the Jiang Mansion and has to seek help from the Marquis' Mansion?
Mrs. Jiang's expression became increasingly grim.
Jiang Guiyu lowered his eyes slightly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
As soon as Mrs. Jiang left Haitang Garden, the housekeeper came to say that the master wanted to see her.
Jiang Shouye spoke as soon as he stepped into the study.
"The things sent from the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion were not stored in the warehouse, but were sent directly to Qingfeng Garden?"
Mrs. Jiang was afraid that he would blame her, so she didn't dare say anything extra and upset him, so she just said "hmm".
Madam Jiang was still a little angry. "Master, Qingyue is too willful. She said in front of the people in the Marquis' Mansion that she would move to Yuehuaxuan today and even asked them for help. What does this mean? Isn't this a slap in my face?"
"Is she being so willful? The people from the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion haven't left yet, and Guiyu has already ordered the maid to deliberately say those things. Doesn't she want to be laughed at?"
Mrs. Jiang was stunned. "How can they be confused?"
"Am I wrong? She didn't move out earlier or later, but chose to move in when outsiders were around. She thought she was being wronged, but in fact, it only made people think she was petty and unpresentable."
Jiang Shouye's voice suddenly rose. "Back in Qingfeng Garden, in order to save a maid who had harmed her master, she actually committed suicide in front of the imperial physician. Who was she doing this for?"
Madam Jiang's heart sank. "Jinxiu has been serving Guiyu all this time. She just can't bear to leave that maid."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Shouye slammed the table loudly.
