Hu Miaomiao became ill again. He was so sick that he couldn't get out of bed for several days and nights. He lost weight and his chin became tapering.
Ye Jin felt more and more pity for her. Not only did she stay with her every day, but she also made the other maids take good care of her.
However, she still made trouble every day and refused to take the medicine, which gave Ye Jin a headache.
Fortunately, under Taohua's careful attention, Hu Miaomiao's energy is getting better and better, and she can walk around in the yard.
"Sister Miaomiao, you won't have a scar on your forehead, right?" Taohong dressed her up and sighed with regret.
"Am I ugly?" Hu Miaomiao touched her forehead and looked suddenly lonely.
"Not ugly, not ugly, but as beautiful as a fairy!" Taohong knew she had said the wrong thing and did not dare to speak again for a long time.
In fact, Hu Miaomiao said she didn't care, but she still cared about it in her heart. After all, what woman doesn't love beauty?
Before, Ye Jin said that he would find the best plaster for her that would not leave scars on her.
But Hu Miaomiao refused. From the bottom of her heart, she did not want to embarrass Ye Jin.
"Forget it, I'm just a maid..."
Seeing that she was feeling sorry for herself, Taohong advised her, "Sister Miaomiao, don't belittle yourself. The eldest son treats you differently."
After serving in the courtyard for so long, Taohong saw for the first time that the eldest young master was attracted to a woman and slept with her every night. It was impossible to say that she didn't like her in her heart.
"Sister Miaomiao, I heard something..."
Taohua hesitated, wondering whether she should say anything, so Hu Miaomiao asked her to say whatever she wanted.
"I heard that the old lady wants to find a match for the eldest young master..."
When Hu Miaomiao heard this, he was immediately confused, his face suddenly turned pale, and he sat there as if he had lost his soul.
Taohong was frightened and wanted to slap herself, "Sister Miaomiao, I only heard about it, so I may not take it seriously!"
If the eldest son finds out, he will definitely scold her for gossiping behind her back.
Hu Miaomiao forced out an ugly smile and couldn't help but ask, "What did the eldest son say?"
"The eldest son seemed unwilling and even had a quarrel with the old lady."
"Don't want to..."
Hu Miaomiao murmured to herself, having a weak fantasy in her heart, but she quickly extinguished it.
Ye Jin is not young anymore. It is time to get married and have children. His wife should be from the right family, right?
Thinking of this, Hu Miaomiao felt even more uncomfortable and developed a strong sense of inferiority.
Everyone knows that she is Ye Jin's maid, and she is lucky enough to be her aunt. She is already very enviable. If Xiao thought about it more, he would probably make people laugh.
Hu Miaomiao looked lonely, hiding all her thoughts in her heart.
Taohong thought she was unhappy, let alone talking nonsense.
Just then, a familiar maid came.
Hu Miaomiao remembered that she was the maid in the old lady's yard, named Baoqin.
Today, Baoqin still had his eyes high. He seemed to know that Ye Jin was not here, so he walked directly into the room, looked at Hu Miaomiao up and down, and paused on her forehead.
"Why did you come in right away?" Taohua was a little dissatisfied.
"Do you want to take care of it?" Baoqin rolled his eyes, looked at Hu Miaomiao and asked, "I heard that you are attracted by the second young master?"
Hu Miaomiao was speechless. He didn't understand what she meant by mentioning this, so he didn't answer.
Baoqin was impatient and said to himself: "Humph, you are also unlucky."
Although she said sour words, she didn't seem to have much malice, which surprised Hu Miaomiao.
"What's that look in your eyes? Do you think I'm going to mock you?" Baoqin rolled his eyes and said angrily, "My heart is not black. Am I that bad?"
Although, she is usually a bit bad...
But the reputation of the second young master has long been bad, and all the maids in the Ye Mansion avoid him. They don't even want to see her jump into the fire pit.
Besides, I heard that she would rather die than obey and bumped her head against the corner of the table, so she was quite a backbone person.
Over time, Baoqin's view of her has changed a lot, and he no longer talks about her with guns and sticks.
"Okay, the old lady asked you to come over, please hurry up."
Hu Miaomiao asked: "What's the matter?"
After hugging Qin for a while, he gave a rare reminder: "For the sake of the eldest son's marriage, you have to be careful what you say. The old lady has been very angry recently."
Sure enough, it was for this reason...
Although Hu Miaomiao vaguely guessed it, her heart still sank.
Along the way, her steps were vain, and she even forgot how she got to the old lady's yard.
In the room, the old lady's face was not very good, and she seemed to be really ill.
Hu Miaomiao lowered her head and closed her eyes, and said respectfully: "I have met the old lady."
"Okay, good boy." The old lady smiled weakly. She was still as gentle to her as last time. She liked her from the bottom of her heart.
"Ahem..."
As soon as the old lady opened her mouth, she couldn't stop coughing.
Hu Miaomiao walked up behind her and moved her back again and again without any displeasure.
"Good boy, you are indeed good."
The old lady patted the back of her hand, looked at her forehead, and sighed: "You look so good, so don't leave any scars."
"Old lady, I'm not afraid of leaving scars."
"Why aren't you afraid? It is natural for women to love beauty. I also loved beauty before I got married!"
As soon as these words came out, the maids in the room covered their mouths and laughed, and Hu Miaomiao also laughed. Although there was a scar on her forehead, it did not detract from her beauty at all.
As the old lady gets older, she likes to talk to the younger ones. Unfortunately, there are only three young masters in the house, so it is a pity that there are no girls.
Thinking of the three unfulfilled grandsons, the old lady sighed and said distressedly: "Brother Ji is spoiled by his mother. He has a naughty temper and doesn't listen to advice. He did something wrong."
When Hu Miaomiao heard this, his eyes suddenly turned red and he shook his head slightly.
"Ji Geer has been beaten and taught a lesson by his father. He will probably not embarrass you again, so don't be afraid."
"Old lady, I understand."
"There is one more thing I want to tell you..."
Hu Miaomiao's heart tightened, and she knew that her words of comfort were over and it was time to get down to business.
The old lady looked sad and said helplessly: "Brother Jin is already seventeen and will be eighteen soon. He has not yet been engaged. I see it in my eyes and am anxious in my heart."
"I've been seeing several girls, and they all have first-class looks and temperaments, and their family backgrounds are good, but Brother Jin doesn't like any of them, and he said he doesn't want to get married, so there's no need to see girls for him."
"Tell me, what does he mean?"
Hu Miaomiao shook her head slightly and said honestly: "I don't know either."
The old lady didn't expect to know the answer from her mouth. Asking her was just a subtle knock on her.
"You are a good person. When Brother Jin gets married, I will treat you as my aunt, okay?"
The implication is that she can only be an aunt, and she must not dream of being a wife.
What's more, which eldest son of a wealthy family would marry a maid? Isn't this a joke?
Hu Miaomiao heard what she meant. Although she felt even more uncomfortable, she still said, "It's all up to the old lady."
When the old lady heard this, she finally smiled and said, "Okay, I think highly of you."
