When Ying Xixi heard this, she was even more certain that the person who was plotting against her was Ying Bei.
After all, Ying Bei works in a gambling house, and the people he comes into contact with are not necessarily all good people.
She was not interested in what Yingbei wanted to plot against her, so there was no need to take the risk.
"He missed me? Do you think I believe it? Even if you want to lie to me, just find something I believe in.
Since you all came to me, you should know that I am working in the general's mansion now.
The general is still waiting for me to buy things and bring them back. If you dare to take me away by force, the general will not let your precious son go!"
Ying Xixi's cold scolding made Ying's parents, who originally wanted to take her away by force, hesitate for a moment and finally let go of her hand.
"Xixi, you really misunderstood. We didn't mean to plot against you. We..."
"That's enough. I'm too lazy to talk to you. Get out of the way."
Ying Xixi interrupted her mother before she finished speaking and left the alley directly.
Seeing Ying Xixi leave without hesitation, Ying's mother stamped her feet in anger.
"Why has this bitch become so irritable now?"
"It's okay, we can come a few more times."
Ying's father still looked confident.
Ying's mother was worried, "What if she really knows our secret?"
"She couldn't possibly know. If she really knew, she would have revealed the secret long ago after coming to the capital for so many years. How could she still be a maid in the general's mansion for so many years?
She is just trying to trick us, don't be scared by her.
Besides, apart from that secret, we have nothing else to hide.
What else could she invent?
After all, this isn't Taohua Village, so we don't have to be afraid."
Ying's mother nodded and said, "You're right. Let's find another opportunity to meet that bitch later."
On the other side, Ying Xixi, who was leaving, heard what the Ying family’s parents said as relayed by the system.
So, the Ying family really has a secret?
She did say she was cheating them on the street that day.
I didn’t expect that the Ying family really had a secret.
Well, it seems there is still more to dig into this matter.
Ying Xixi went shopping and when she entered a store, she almost bumped into someone coming out.
Fortunately, she dodged to the side in time.
"Feel sorry."
Ying Xixi lowered her head and said something before continuing to go into the store.
But someone grabbed her forearm.
She turned her head and met a pair of eyes full of surprise.
The lady in front of him was not wearing a veil or a hat, and had her hair tied up in a bun. She looked a little familiar.
Ying Xixi searched her memory and remembered.
Isn’t this the woman who sat diagonally opposite her and looked at her strangely at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet that night?
But that night she was dressed as a servant.
Could it be that this lady recognized her now?
"Girl, I remember you, you are the general's maid.
You accompanied the general to the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet."
The other party confirmed her presence.
Since they were all recognized, Ying Xixi did not deny it.
"Madam, it is indeed my humble servant. May I know what may be the matter?"
"Miss, actually, I already knew you were a girl at the palace banquet that night.
To be honest, I think you are very kind and I want to talk to you and talk about the general, is that okay?"
Yang Lin looked at Ying Xixi expectantly.
Ying Xixi didn't know the other party's identity and was worried that refusing would affect Zhao Yuxiao. In addition, she felt a sense of familiarity towards the lady, so she agreed.
Yang Lin took her servants and Ying Xixi to the teahouse.
The private room happened to be on the second floor, next to the window, so one could have a clear view of what was happening on the street.
"Miss, I haven't introduced myself yet. I am the wife of the Minister of Justice. You can call me Madam Yang.
Last time, I was sitting here drinking tea, and by chance I saw you, young lady, talking with your father and mother.
If someone else were caught in that situation, they might be led by the other party, but you are very capable, girl."
Yang Lin exclaimed in admiration.
Ying Xixi was a little puzzled when she heard this.
The wife of the Minister of Justice?
This kind of character, including the Minister of Justice, never appeared in the original plot.
"Madam Yang, you are too kind. What I said at that time was all true. If you want a filial son, you also need a loving father.
After they sold the slave for two taels of silver, the slave had no further relationship with them."
Ying Xixi lowered her eyes, looked at the tea leaves swirling in the cup, and spoke softly.
Yang Lin looked at Ying Xixi with eyes full of heartache.
"My dear, how are you doing as a maid in the general's mansion?
Do you want to redeem yourself and leave the General's Mansion?"
“I am living quite well in the General’s Mansion.
The general is a good man and doesn't treat his servants harshly.
As for redeeming myself and leaving the General's Mansion...I have never thought about it.
And even if I redeem myself and leave the general's mansion, where can I go?
It would be better to continue staying in the general's mansion.
The general is stationed at the border all year round, and there is no master other than the general in the mansion, so the servants live quite comfortably.
Ying Xixi was telling the truth.
Yang Lin's eyes flashed, "It sounds like staying in the general's mansion is pretty good."
Ying Xixi nodded, "That's right."
"By the way, girl, what's your name?
We've been chatting for a while, and I still don't know your name."
"Madam Yang, my former name was Xixi, so my surname should be Xixi.
After I became a slave, the nanny named me Chunhua.
