Chapter 29 Mrs. Hu
"Ah? Ah, I... I came out for a walk alone, so I didn't bring any maids with me. But you, Madam Jiang, why didn't you accompany Madam Hu?" Liu replied with an apologetic smile. Although Madam Jiang was only the nanny beside Madam Hu, she didn't dare to offend her.
"Of course I am following orders and waiting for the second wife of the Li family. Madam, my wife wants to see you!" Nanny Jiang said with a smile.
"Mrs. Hu invited me? Is this... is there something going on?"
"As a servant, I don't know about this. Madam will know when she goes there. My wife is waiting for you in the teahouse, Madam, please come in!" Madam Jiang stretched out her hand and made an invitation gesture.
Liu was a little scared, but she didn't dare to refuse. "Okay, thank you for leading the way, Madam."
"Sister Liu is here? Come on, sit down. Someone, bring the tea and the best snacks here!" When Mrs. Hu saw Liu, she came over kindly and took her hand to sit together.
"Madam, why are you in the mood to drink tea?" asked Liu.
"Why call me Madam? After just a few days of not seeing you, you're already treating me like an outsider? Call me Sister Zhu!" Madam Hu said, pretending to be angry.
Mrs. Hu's maiden name is Zhu.
Liu immediately changed her tone, "Sister Zhu."
"That's right. You can try their newly made snacks first. They are delicious! When you leave, bring a box for Yao Jia and Ming Ze. It will show that I, as their aunt, love these two children!" Mrs. Hu said with a smile.
Liu was a little hesitant at first; after all, she was the wife of her husband's boss. Gradually, seeing how polite and cordial Mrs. Hu was, she forgot her status. She had been praising her parents for a long time and was already thirsty. She drank her tea and then started eating some snacks. "Sister Zhu, these snacks are really delicious!"
There was a flash of contempt in the eyes of Nanny Jiang and Madam Hu. A lowly person will never change his lowliness!
However, Mrs. Hu didn't show it on her face. Instead, she smiled more warmly, "Really? I think so too. Bring a few more boxes back later!"
Liu was overjoyed, "Thank you, Sister Zhu!"
"What are you thanking me for? Although we are not sisters, we are as close as brothers!" Mrs. Hu said this, and suddenly her expression became a little embarrassed. "Speaking of which, I have something I want to ask you for help. I wonder if you are willing to help me?"
"Sister, you said that as long as I can help you!" Liu was already a little arrogant, calling her sister all the time. If the city lord came in person, she would dare to call him brother!
"It's like this. A few days ago, Shuangyun and your niece Tongtong upset your eldest young master because of Yao Jia. He insisted that we, Shuangyun, compensate him, saying that he broke something precious! I was thinking, this matter was caused by Yao Jia. Shuangyun didn't have any bad intentions. After returning from the Treasure Pavilion, she kept crying at home. It really hurt me to see it. So I came out secretly without telling our master. I want to ask you for a favor. Can you talk to Li Mingyan and let this matter go?"
Liu paused while eating snacks. She had just had a big fight with her family because of this matter!
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Mrs. Hu gave Madam Jiang a look.
Nanny Jiang nodded in understanding and immediately took out a set of jeweled head ornaments and presented them to Liu. "Second Madam, this is a little gift from our wife. I hope you won't despise it!"
Liu's eyes immediately widened!
