Chapter 160 Biling
"Sister You!" Huo Wan leaned against Yuan Ziyou in the carriage on the way to the manor, smiling, "What did the Queen Mother say when she summoned you to the palace yesterday?"
"He just chatted some gossip, and then gave me a set of headgear!" Yuan Ziyu said with a smile.
Huo Wan was full of envy: "If only I could meet the Queen Mother and receive her reward!"
"Why, what do you want the Queen Mother to reward you with?" Yuan Ziyu asked with a smile.
"I don't want anything else. I just want the Queen Mother to tell my parents to let me go to the battlefield in the future!" Huo Wan said with a pout.
"Don't forget, you just turned eleven this year." Yuan Ziyou tapped Huo Wan's forehead. "You're so young, and you're already thinking about going to the battlefield. Have you memorized the military tactics? Have you mastered your fist and kick skills? With your tiny arms and legs, can you outrun them?"
"Sister You!" Huo Wan said coquettishly, "I didn't say I'd go now, it's later!"
"It's still too early, what are you talking about now!" To be honest, Yuan Ziyu didn't want Huo Wan to go to the battlefield from the bottom of his heart. It was too cruel there. Huo Wan, a girl who grew up in a wealthy family, was not suitable for that place. Even if she was familiar with military tactics and had superb martial arts, she could not adapt to the cruelty there after all. What Yuan Ziyu didn't want even more was that Huo Wan in this life would end up like she did in her previous life.
"It's my mother!" Huo Wan pouted. "I just mentioned it for a moment, and my mother started crying in front of me!"
"Aunt Meng can't bear to leave you!" Huo Wan sighed: "You, don't make Aunt Meng worry!"
"But……"
"Even if you get the Queen Mother to issue an imperial decree and get the Marquis and Aunt Meng to agree to let you go to the battlefield, do you think the Marquis and Aunt Meng will not worry?" Yuan Ziyou asked, "Tell me, if something happens to you, what will you ask the Marquis and Aunt Meng to do?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Wan pursed her lips, lowered her head, and said nothing.
After a while, he hummed and said, "Okay, then I won't go!"
"That's right!" Yuan Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.
At the same time, Wu Ying and Wu Hen also breathed a sigh of relief. Their Eighth Miss had been dreaming of going to the battlefield in the future, and it had not been a matter of a while. Today, they were able to be persuaded by Second Miss Yuan, which was a great relief for them.
"You'er, Wan'er, we've arrived at the farm!" At this time, Huo Xifei's voice sounded outside the carriage.
After a while, the carriage stopped and Yuan Ziyu and Huo Wan got off. They saw Liu Tao and a woman waiting at the gate of the manor, followed by many servants. The woman was Biling.
Because Liu had sent a servant to notify them first, Liu Tao and Biling were waiting at the gate of the manor without waiting for Yuan Ziyu and others to arrive.
"This old servant greets Master Huo, the Second Miss, and Miss Wan!" Seeing Yuan Ziyu and others coming in front of them, Liu Tao and Biling hurriedly bowed.
The servants behind him also followed suit and saluted.
"No need to be polite!" Huo Xifei said, "We are here just for fun hunting, so there is no need to be restrained!"
"yes!"
"Master Huo, Second Miss, and Miss Wan, please come in quickly. I have already asked someone to clean up the yard!" Liu Tao said hurriedly with a smile, and led Yuan Ziyu and others to the yard.
"Second Miss!" Biling hadn't seen Yuan Ziyu for a long time. She was naturally very happy to see her now. She hurriedly walked to Yuan Ziyu and called her affectionately.
She had followed Liu since she was young, and then followed Liu to marry into the Yuan family. She also took care of Yuan Ziyu when she was a child, and later she got married and came here when she was older. What's more, the grown-up Yuan Ziyu now looks very similar to Liu.
Biling smiled and said, "Second Miss, I personally arranged your courtyard. If you see anything that needs to be changed, just tell me!"
"Thank you for your hard work, Nanny Biling!" Biling was Liu's old maid, so Yuan Ziyu naturally respected her very much.
"This is what this old servant should do!" Biling hurriedly smiled and said, "Quick, Second Miss, go to the yard first. This old servant has made some lunch myself. Second Miss, take a rest and eat something first!"
The journey from the capital to this farm is not short, about fifty or sixty miles, and it takes more than an hour for a carriage to travel. Now, when Yuan Ziyu and others arrived at the farm, it was almost noon.
"Okay, thank you, Aunt Biling!"
Liu Tao took Huo Xi to his yard, and Biling took Yuan Ziyu and Huo Wan to two quiet courtyards side by side.
"Second Miss, Miss Wan, this is the yard that I have prepared for you two. Please take a look and see if there is anything else that needs to be added!" Biling said with a smile.
"Wow, that's great!" Huo Wan couldn't help but cheer when she saw the yard: "Sister You, our yards are next to each other."
Yuan Ziyou smiled and nodded to Huo Wan, then said to Biling, "Thank you, Madam Biling. I think everything is fine. If there's anything you need, I'll have my maid tell you!"
"Okay, Second Miss!" Biling said with a smile, "Second Miss and Miss Wan, please take a rest first. I will bring lunch over in a while!"
"Okay!" Yuan Ziyu nodded.
Huo Wan also smiled and said, "Thank you, Aunt Biling!"
Biling hurriedly said, "Miss Wan, you're too polite!"
"Sister You, I'll come to see you after lunch!" Before entering the yard, Huo Wan said to Yuan Ziyu.
"Okay!" Yuan Ziyou replied, "Don't worry, take a rest after lunch. We won't go out this afternoon. Come find me after you take a nap!"
Yuan Ziyu had something else to ask Biling, so he said this.
"Alright!" Huo Wan thought about it and smiled, "Then I'll take a nap and come find my sister later!"
Not long after, Biling personally brought her maid to deliver lunch to Yuan Ziyu.
"Second Miss, I don't know what you like now, so I made some dishes that you loved when you were a child. I don't know if they will suit your taste."
Biling asked the maids to place the dishes on the table, then said to Yuan Ziyu with a smile.
Biling also stayed in the frontier for almost ten years until she married Liu Tao, and then she returned to the capital from the frontier to help Liu take care of the farm.
Yuan Ziyu respected Biling not only because she was Liu's old maid, but also because in her previous life, Biling committed suicide upon learning that Liu had died.
"Madam Biling still remembers the dishes I loved to eat when I was a child!" Yuan Ziyou said with a smile, "I have been thinking about Madam Biling's cooking skills for a long time, so of course I like them."
Biling smiled and said, "If the Second Miss likes to eat, I will make more food for her in the next few days at the farm."
"Okay!" Yuan Ziyou smiled and nodded, then changed the subject: "Madam Biling, you came to the Yuan family with your mother, right?"
"Yes!" Biling nodded quickly.
"Then, does Nanny Biling know about the situation of my maternal grandparents' family?" Yuan Ziyu asked.
Biling's face turned pale when she heard this: "Second Miss... Why would Second Miss think of asking these questions?"
