Chapter 451 Do You Want to Meet Him?
Xu Zhichun: "Where does Qi Xiu work?"
Dongxiang: "To answer Madam, Qi Xiu is not working in the Marquis' Mansion, and Madam Qi's family are good citizens."
Chunnan also hurriedly said, "If it weren't for this, Madam Qi wouldn't have dared to have such a big ambition. But after Qi Xiu was scolded by the Marquis, Madam Qi didn't dare to bring her into the Marquis's mansion anymore, let alone mention it again. Ah, she didn't mention it openly, but the servants could see it."
Dongxiang nodded: "Yes."
Xu Zhichun smiled and said, "I see. It's good that Qi Xiu isn't in our house."
As for Madam Qi, it would be even more difficult to keep her in my yard.
If I feel uncomfortable, she might feel uncomfortable too, so why make both of us unhappy? I need to find a way to get rid of her.
Xu Zhichun asked Dongxiang and Chunnan to move small stools and sit down, and asked Nanny Qin Qing and Muxiang to sit down as well, and asked them some questions about the things in the Marquis' Mansion.
Steward Zhang and Nanny Feng are the chief stewards, in charge of the entire mansion. They may not be so clear about what is going on underneath. Dongxiang and Chunnan are just maids and have their own channels of information.
Both of them were smart people. They knew that their master was the Marquis' wife, and from now on they belonged to the Marquis' wife. They would prosper and suffer together, so naturally they would say whatever they wanted to say, racking their brains to answer the Marquis' wife's questions.
There were some things that the marquis' wife had not asked about but that they had thought of, so they hurried to tell her.
The more the Marquis' wife knows about the Marquis' Mansion, the more control she can have over it and the greater her prestige will be. This is naturally beneficial to "insiders" like them.
As they were talking, it was lunchtime. Xiao Yuan came in timidly and asked Madam when dinner would be served. Xu Zhichun suddenly realized what time it was and asked someone to invite Liang Mingxuan and Lu Yin to come over for lunch.
Butler Zhang was very efficient. After they had lunch, he brought people to help Liang Mingxuan choose.
Liang Mingxuan picked three people. One of them was named Xiaosong, who was the same age as him, and served as his servant. The other two, who were about three or four years older than him, served as his attendants. They were named Ayan and Achong respectively.
Xu Zhichun thought these three people were good, so he decided on them.
Xu Zhichun felt even more satisfied with Butler Zhang. This was the man who really put a lot of thought into selecting people. He knew that the servants and attendants that the Second Master wanted to select should be of different ages.
Xiaosong and the other two were very happy and kowtowed to acknowledge their master. Xu Zhichun used both kindness and force and gave them a few instructions before letting Liang Mingxuan take them back.
Nanny Qin Qing handed a box to Liang Mingxuan and said with a smile that it was prepared by the lady for the second master.
Liang Mingxuan was a little puzzled. When he went back to open it, he found that it was silver bills of varying amounts, some copper coins, small change, and a dozen small purses neatly stacked.
He felt grateful and touched. This was the pocket money and the purse of silver that his sister-in-law had specially prepared for him as a reward.
Liang Mingxuan rewarded Xiaosong and the other two with a purse containing two qian of silver each.
Xu Zhichun deliberately kept Lu Yin to talk.
"Although I've only just arrived at this mansion, it's funny to say that a wicked servant would bully even me, but I'm not afraid. I'll just deal with anyone who dares to run into me. I can't let a servant take advantage of me. If that's the case, I might as well not come here. No one in our village dares to do this to me."
"They treat me like this, and since you're my adopted sister, those people will probably be even less polite. If anyone dares to act sarcastic, disobey their superiors, or disobey orders, Ayin, don't think you're an outsider and have to endure it. Don't endure it at all. Tell me immediately."
"You're not meddling in other people's business or causing me trouble. You're actually helping me. It would be good for the Marquisate if people like that were eliminated as soon as possible."
Lu Yin smiled and nodded. "I'll remember what you said, sister. Not only that, if I hear or see anything, I'll tell you too."
Xu Zhichun laughed: "That's even better! You can treat this place as your home and do whatever you want without any hesitation. We both know the relationship between us very well, so why should we be so reserved?"
She has done Minglang and Mingxuan a favor, and Xu Zhichun is still using her original body.
The fact that Xu Zhichun could say this calmly showed that he really didn't consider Lu Yin an outsider.
Lu Yin felt completely at ease and nodded vigorously: "Yeah"
Xu Zhichun dismissed everyone and then whispered to Lu Yin, "Ayin, do you still remember Master Ji from Jinling? He's also an official in the capital now."
Lu Yin looked up suddenly.
Xu Zhichun elaborated, then added, "Minglang and I will definitely avenge you. There's no doubt about that. I can see that Master Ji hasn't forgotten you. Do you want to meet him? I didn't tell you before that Master Ji and we had actually met. I had originally planned to tell you after I had settled everything down and avenged you. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that he's also in the capital. It seems like fate has its own way."
Lu Yin burst into tears.
Xu Zhichun sighed secretly and briefly recounted the story of Ji Yingxuan's meeting with him and his wife. Lu Yin seemed to be both sad and happy, with tears streaming down her face.
Xu Zhichun sighed secretly and said softly, "He has been looking for you all this time. You two have finally found happiness after all the hardships. Now you are the sister of Wuxuan Hou's wife. If he is interested, you can be considered a perfect match. It is not easy to live a new life. It would be a pity to miss you again."
Lu Yin threw herself on Xu Zhichun and burst into tears.
Three days later, Ji Yingxuan came to visit.
When he left Liangjia Village, he returned home in a daze and fell seriously ill.
Just after he recovered from a serious illness, the emperor's edict arrived, and he had no choice but to go to Beijing.
Later, Prince Yuchang rebelled and the court was busy with affairs, so he could not leave. After Prince Yuchang was defeated, many meritorious officials such as Liang Minglang came to Beijing to be conferred titles, and he also helped Liang Minglang a lot.
Now that everything was getting back on track, he began to think about resigning again.
Liang Minglang invited him to visit, saying that Mrs. Xu had come to Beijing. He didn't want to go at first, but he couldn't help but come.
Several people gathered in Liang Minglang's study.
Ji Yingxuan followed Liang Minglang into the hall. A glimpse of two women seated there made him frown slightly, displeased, and secretly mocked: Liang Minglang is no exception. Is he trying to be his matchmaker? It's fine if others, unaware of the situation, have such thoughts, but he's really despicable. The capital's dye vat has changed, and it's not just one or two people who have changed.
After all, I had misjudged him.
I thought he was different from others, but it turns out there is no difference.
It won't be long before the Wuxuan Marquis's Mansion will also be hosting a wedding! It's a pity for Madam Xu, she will eventually suffer injustice.
Since she was using Zhichun's body, he planned to secretly tell her that if she needed help, he would definitely help her.
