Chapter 79 Master and Servant Chat
When July returned to Jiang Xinyu's yard, Jiang Xinyu had already finished her meal and was fiddling with a pile of silk threads and learning how to knit with September.
Ancient people were definitely far ahead of modern people in these crafts. She had never seen any of the ones that September brought.
She only knew how to weave Chinese knots before, which were nothing compared to the plum blossom and five bats holding a longevity knot in front of her.
Seeing July coming in, Jiang Xinyu didn't stop moving, but just asked casually,
"Have you found out what's wrong with your master?"
July's smile froze for a moment, and she knelt on the ground obediently with her head lowered.
Since the lady has already guessed that it is useless to make excuses, it is better to try to maintain a good attitude.
Jiang Xinyu looked at Qiyue kneeling down and waved her hands nonchalantly.
"Get up, get up, I didn't say I was going to punish you.
You are originally from the Governor's Mansion. Isn't it normal for you to serve whoever you eat and whoever you serve?
You don't really think that I don't know that my news is put in front of Xiao Yuan every day.
Don't make trouble, sister, I'm not stupid."
Jiu Yue couldn't keep his words to himself. Seeing the lady's smile, he boldly asked,
"Madam, are you not angry with us?
You treat us servants so well, yet we still eat from you and take advantage of you. If this happened in another family..."
Jiang Xinyu chuckled, "It can't be considered as eating inside and taking advantage of outsiders.
Your indentures are in Xiao Yuan's hands, and your food and drink are all provided by the Governor's Mansion. I am the "outsider".
As for being angry, that's even more ridiculous.
People get angry when their efforts and expectations are not met by the rewards.
I knew your position from the beginning, so why should I be angry?"
July felt her face getting hot and whispered,
"But Madam is very kind to the servants."
Jiang Xinyu shook her head helplessly, "It's okay, aren't you guys very attentive to me?
In fact, you two don't need to worry about this. When Xiao Yuan and I agree, it doesn't matter who you listen to. When we disagree, you must choose your own master.
If I can't even see this clearly, I'm just asking for trouble.
Let’s get down to business.
You've been out for quite some time, so you must have gone to look for Xiao Douzi who is beside Xiao Yuan. Have you found out what's wrong with your governor?
If it’s not convenient to say it, then forget it. If it’s convenient to say it, I’ll listen.
Even though I want to spend my whole life with him, we have only known each other for a short time, so I should ask you old people for some inside information."
Seeing his wife's playful expression and not seeming to be angry, Qi Yue breathed a sigh of relief, moved to the table to help his wife sort out the clues, and spoke after carefully choosing his words,
"I did find out something. The governor was in a bad mood. After leaving our courtyard, he locked himself in his room and has not turned on the lights until now."
July paused at this point and patted September, who was listening to the gossip.
"I will sleep outside tonight, you go back to your room and sleep."
Jiu Yue pursed her lips, obviously reluctant, and turned to Jiang Xinyu expectantly.
"Madam~"
Jiang Xinyu chuckled, "It's no use calling you Madam, if you don't leave, your sister July might not tell you.
Be good, it is better to die a friend than to die a poor one, madam, I still want to hear more."
July smiled and said, "If I could let you hear it, would I still hide it from you?"
Since I don't let you listen to it, then it's not suitable for you to know.
Don't be blindly curious about the things concerning the Lord Governor. Are you itching again?"
Jiu Yue shook her head quickly, "I don't want to hear it anymore. I'm not surprised at all."
As she spoke, the little girl bowed and ran away, fearing that she would be hit with a stick if she was not careful.
July looked outside and saw that no one had closed the door, so he spoke carefully,
"Madam, please don't blame the Governor. We have served the Governor for so many years and have never seen the Governor be so tolerant to anyone."
Jiang Xinyu's expression was indescribable. "Although I can't say Xiao Yuan is not good to me, but isn't the word tolerance a little inappropriate?
Ever since I came into the mansion, he has either been angry with me or giving me the cold shoulder. He is like a child, sometimes happy and sometimes angry. How can he be tolerant?"
Qiyue smiled awkwardly, "Madam, I'm sorry to say that, but the fact that you can still be so lively and enjoy eating everything here shows that the governor is very tolerant.
So far, there are only two people who continue to confront our Lord head-on and are still alive and well.
One is the Left Prime Minister and the other is you.
The Left Prime Minister dared to do this because he is the father-in-law of the Second Prince, a student and old acquaintance of many powerful officials.
Our overseer can't be shaken for a while.
As for you..."
Jiang Xinyu said playfully, "You mean Xiao Yuan didn't really do anything to me because he likes me, right?
I know, and I won't deny it.
He likes me and I like him, but life between a couple cannot just be about liking each other.
Feelings can grow deeper and deeper, or they can gradually fade away. Just because I like him doesn't mean I have to obey him in everything.
It’s not that my status and position are not as high as his and I have to lower myself and try to please him blindly.
Of course, if there is no love between us and this is just a marriage of convenience, I can still be a good wife.
I flattered him to make him happy, and he used his power to help me teach my enemies a lesson. It was a very fair exchange of interests.
But you have to know that interests are interests.
If it's just about benefits, I won't have any feelings for him. Whether he's dead or alive, good or bad, it can't move me at all.
The problem now is that he wants my affection, and I have given my heart to him and want his affection too.
So we are equal, and I will not blindly try to please others and give to others.”
July felt like her head was itching as if it was going to grow a brain. As a woman of this era, she didn't quite understand what equality for ladies meant.
The status of the lady is not equal to that of the governor. Why can the one without feelings try to please the one with feelings but the one with feelings refuses to lower his posture?
Jiang Xinyu looked at July with amusement. This girl had always been calm and sophisticated, but now she finally behaved like a little girl.
Since she couldn't figure it out, July didn't want to dwell on the issue anymore. She wanted to resolve the misunderstanding between the lady and the governor more than theoretical knowledge.
When Qiyue said that she had misunderstood Xiao Yuan, Jiang Xinyu just smiled.
“It’s not a misunderstanding.
Although he always gets angry and escapes for unknown reasons, I don't know the specific reason.
But no matter how things change, the root remains the same, and I can probably guess where the root of the problem lies.
Isn't it because of the inferiority complex due to physical issues?
Go back and tell Xiaodouzi that it's no use for you to persuade me about this matter, you should persuade Xiao Yuan.
If he obeys me, then nothing will happen.
I told him I didn't care but he didn't believe me. What should I do?
There is a shortcut. You let Xiaodouzi knock him down with a packet of knockout drugs, and I will force myself on him and sleep with him directly.
If one time doesn’t work, try twice. If you’re not convinced, sleep with me.
Once I eat him dry and touch him all over his body, he will know that I really don't despise him.
So that he won't be suspicious and worried all day long."
The more Jiang Xinyu talked, the better she felt about her idea. She patted Qiyue's shoulder with a smile.
"Good girl, the sexual happiness of your Lord and I depends on you and Xiaodouzi.
It's true that your supervisor is too good at martial arts. If I could beat him, I would have dragged him to bed long ago.
Men always say one thing and mean another. Once he has tasted the power of women and knows the advantages of them, he will behave himself next time.
Hehehehe!"
July was about to cry when he saw his wife's lecherous look and the typical villain's weird smile.
Help! Her wife is going crazy.
