Chapter 478 Questions
After Zhilan and Sujin helped Qin Huiyin take a bath and rest, they prepared to return to their own rooms.
The two maids could have had their own rooms, but they had a good relationship and wanted to keep each other company. They also wanted to give each other advice on how to serve the young lady, so they asked the housekeeper to arrange a double room for them.
At this time, the two of them passed the corner gate and were about to turn inside when they saw Runiang coming from the opposite side.
"Sister Runiang." Zhilan and Sujin greeted her and were about to leave when they were stopped by Runiang.
"I came here specifically to see you," Runiang said, "Madam has something to ask you."
Zhilan and Sujin looked at each other.
Madam must have come to them because of the young lady's affairs. But in the past, whenever Madam had something to ask the young lady, she would ask her directly, and never asked the maids or servants about the affairs of Huiyin Courtyard.
Tang Dafu was not in the room, only Li Taohua was in the room.
Li Taohua asked Runiang to guard the door, and then looked at Zhilan and Sujin.
"What happened to you today, Miss?" Li Taohua asked.
Zhilan and Sujin did not dare to hide anything and explained everything that happened today.
"How many days has the prince of the Anping Marquis's Mansion been harassing your young lady?" Li Taohua clutched the stone table beside her.
"Yes, ma'am."
"That man is extremely shameless. He first sent some rare flowers, but when he saw that they were of no use, our young lady ignored him and went to seek an official position in the Military Department. Now the young lady has to see him. He is in charge of the East City Military Department and has taken away the position of the original Mr. Song." Zhilan said.
"Like father, like son," Li Taohua said dryly, "You all should leave! There's no need to mention what happened today to Yinyin."
"Madam, please don't be too angry." Su Jin saw that Li Taohua's face looked a little strange and said worriedly, "Should we ask the Second Young Master to come and take a look?"
"I'm fine, I'll be fine after a while." Li Taohua waved her hand and asked the two maids to retreat.
Ru Niang's voice came from the door: "Greetings, Master."
"What are you doing here?" Tang Dafu said, "You don't need to serve me at night. I'll be there to accompany my wife."
After saying that, Tang Dafu opened the door and walked into the room with a smile.
When he saw Zhilan and Sujin leaving, the smile on his face disappeared. He looked at Li Taohua and trotted over.
"Wife, you don't look well. Are you feeling unwell? I'll go call Brother Xiao over now."
Li Taohua grabbed Tang Dafu's wrist and said calmly, "I'm just hungry. Go to the kitchen and get me something to eat."
"Okay. I'll go now." Tang Dafu had just taken a shower and was still damp.
But when he heard that his wife was hungry, he immediately ran to the kitchen without any hesitation.
Li Taohua lay there, her eyes rolling around, full of anger and sadness.
How dare he set his sights on Yinyin? How could he harm Yinyin, the one she had raised with so much effort?
The next day, Qin Huiyin was still lying in bed when Runiang came over and said that the eldest lady of the Meng Mansion had come with Master Meng to apologize.
Qin Huiyin climbed up from the bed, with messy hair on her head, and looked at Runiang with resentment: "Mother, just receive me and say I'm out. It's not necessary to see me this time."
"Madam means that if you don't meet him, he might come back a second time. You might as well meet him once and let it go, so he won't worry about it anymore."
Qin Huiyin nodded: "Okay, I'll pack up and go over."
After Runiang left, Qin Huiyin dressed up with the help of Zhilan and Sujin, and cheered herself up to meet the guests.
As soon as she reached Li Taohua's courtyard, she heard the sound of two people talking and laughing. She stepped through the gate and saw Li Taohua chatting happily with a neatly dressed woman.
This woman was different from other officials' wives. She was not dressed in luxurious attire with lots of jewels, but in a very capable outfit. If no one introduced her, one would have thought she was a servant of high status in a wealthy family.
Meng Lin sat obediently beside him.
Meng Lin is very tall and strong. He is a little scary when he is angry, and a little silly when he is honest.
Oh, not a little, he is just silly.
Meng Lin has a poor brain and is often fooled by others, but he doesn't realize it.
"Greetings, Madam, Master Meng." Qin Huiyin saluted.
"Excuse me, please." Madam Meng said warmly. "Madam Tang, how do all the girls in your family look? Why are they all so beautiful?"
"Madam, please stop praising her. I'm afraid she'll get carried away." Li Taohua said with a smile, "Speaking of a handsome man, your young master is brave and strong. You can tell at a glance that he's the descendant of a general. His brows are filled with the heroic spirit of a military commander."
"Hey, how can he be as good as you say?" Mrs. Meng said, and looked at Qin Huiyin again. "Is there any marriage proposal?"
Qin Huiyin: "...In reply to Madam, I'm still young, there's no rush."
Is she some hot commodity? So many people are paying attention to her marriage.
Besides, didn’t you say you would come to apologize?
A strange look flashed in Li Taohua's eyes.
Asking about her daughter's marriage so directly, this Mrs. Meng is really simple-minded. No wonder her son is so stupid.
However, even if the general's mansion was extremely wealthy, her daughter couldn't possibly marry a fool.
You can make some friends, one more friend means one more way. Others will have to think twice before provoking you.
"Lin'er, hurry up and apologize to Miss Qin." Mrs. Meng urged Meng Lin.
Meng Lin stood up and said honestly, "I'm sorry, Miss Qin, I wronged you yesterday."
"I heard that the attendant committed suicide by swallowing a needle." Qin Huiyin asked, "Sir, have you ever asked him why he committed suicide?"
"He must have known he had let his former master down and felt ashamed." Meng Lin touched his head. "Let him die. I didn't kill him. He wanted to die on his own."
Qin Huiyin pursed her lips and said calmly, "I have seen your sincerity. You were also tricked by others, so this matter cannot be blamed on you. Fortunately, nothing happened to you, otherwise I am afraid that something serious would have happened."
"Mrs. Tang and I hit it off right away, and I'd like to continue discussing this experience of teaching a daughter to run a household. Miss Qin, why don't you bring my son to sit in your garden for a while? You young people should have a lot to talk about, so just think of it as making another friend."
Li Taohua gestured towards Qin Huiyin.
Qin Huiyin agreed and said, "Then Huiyin will take her leave."
Qin Huiyin took Meng Lin out of the yard and headed towards the flower garden.
Meng Lin followed behind Qin Huiyin and said to her, "Miss Qin, if there is anything you need me to do, just tell me. I have wronged you and I should apologize."
"I told you it's unnecessary, you don't have to take it to heart." Qin Huiyin said.
"Then can I come and play with you? The food at the Food City is so delicious. If I become your friend, we can go there often and not have to wait for a table, right?"
Qin Huiyin: "..."
What an evil plan.
She turned around and looked at Meng Lin. The latter's eyes were very burning, and it could be seen that he was sincere about the food in the food city.
