Lin Jiang knew the family backgrounds of the maids clearly when he bought them.
The reason why Ye Yutong asked this was to test whether these girls had given up on their family.
If the family doesn't treat them as relatives, they still want to go back. She wouldn't be able to use it if she couldn't hold it clearly.
Ye Yutong pretended to sigh helplessly and helped them up.
"I thought that after the famine was over, I would send you back to reunite with your family, but I didn't expect that things would turn out like this. Alas, you are all poor people.
In that case, follow me. From now on, I will find your in-laws and buy dowries for you, and I will never treat you badly. "
The six of them were grateful and wanted to kneel down to express their thanks, but Ye Yutong quickly stopped them.
"Don't kneel down all the time in the future. Didn't I tell you that we are master and servant on the surface? When no one is around, we treat each other as sisters."
After hearing what she said, Lingmei immediately shook her head, "Madam, this is absolutely impossible. We all remember your kindness to us. If we don't distinguish between master and servant, others will say that we have no rules."
When they were on the mountain, Lin Zhong brought an old nanny from the Lin family over and taught them the rules in person.
After Song Jingyan arrived at the mountain, she knew that they were the maids prepared by Li Yunze for Ye Yutong.
He also gave them pointers from time to time. He also told them the dirty tricks commonly used by rich families.
The six maids studied very seriously, and often thought about how to deal with it themselves, just because they were afraid that the lady would suffer from the villain in the future.
Ye Yutong shook his head helplessly, "I really can't do anything with you little old-fashioned people, so fine, I'll just let you do it."
She then said to the six maids: "Lingmei, Linglan, Lingzhu, Lingju, the four of you are here to help me with some chores for the time being.
Lingchun and Linghua packed their things and followed me to Dongyang County early tomorrow morning. I will study in a few shops for a while first, and then I will ask you two to help me visit shops in various places. "
"Yes, ma'am."
"Don't let your kung fu fall behind. Set aside at least an hour every day to practice martial arts. It's best to dress up as a man when you go out. This world is too chaotic, so you must protect yourself."
Ye Yutong looked at the few people and said seriously: "I hope that one day, we sisters can all share the wealth."
The six little girls were moved to tears by her big cakes and chicken soup.
Ye Yutong patted several people on the shoulders and said gently: "Everyone go and have a rest. I don't need to wait here."
The maids bowed and left. They all knew Ye Yutong's rules.
I don't like having someone to serve me, and I don't need someone to keep vigil. These maids only need to wait for orders in their own rooms.
Ye Yutong walked to the courtyard and saw that the lights in the courtyard next door were not on, so he knew that his second brother had not come back yet. It should be at Uncle Lin Zhong's place.
She stood in the courtyard, looking up at the endless stars in the sky, feeling a little melancholy.
Alas, I wonder where Ping An is now?
Counting the time, the two of them have only been separated for more than a month, so why do they miss each other so much?
After watching for a while, she closed her eyes and exhaled, and her agitated heart calmed down.
After a while, she looked into the distance again, knowing why she suddenly thought of peace.
It must be that the night was so beautiful today that even an older girl like her couldn't help but express her emotions.
Northwest Liang Prince's Mansion
Li Yunhang was lying on the couch taking a nap. He had not fallen asleep for several nights.
Feiying has been out for more than a month, and there is still no news.
The second group of people he sent out came yesterday to send messages to Feige, but they didn't find any useful clues.
He planned to wait for another two days. If there was still no news from both sides, he would go to Fengcheng to ask Song Shan personally.
Just as he was lost in thought, suddenly there was a slight noise in the courtyard, and Li Yunhang immediately opened the door.
Fei Ying saw that the prince's eyes were a little blue, and he knew that he had not rested well.
He didn't wait for Li Yunhang to ask, and immediately reported after entering the room: "Master, we found Miss Song. She asked you to meet in Xijiang."
Li Yunhang's eyes flashed with ecstasy, and he couldn't wait to ask: "Did she say when?"
“When we came back from Qingzhou City, Miss Song said she would leave in two days.
Calculating this, the prince will pass away tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
But Miss Song also said that if you are delayed, she can wait a few more days in Xijiang. "
As soon as Fei Ying finished speaking, Li Yunhang began to change his clothes for going out, "What can I do? I'm alone. Let's set off now."
Feiying paused for a moment, but did not dare to persuade him, so he sent someone out to arrange the carriage.
The prince noticed that he had not slept for a long time, so it was better not to let him ride a horse.
After Li Yunhang changed his clothes, Feiying reminded him, "Sir, I'm afraid this trip will take more than ten days. What do the prince and princess say?"
Li Yunhang put on his boots and said calmly: "Tell the prince and princess that my old habit has returned and I want to live in Zhuangzi for a while."
"Yes, I will send someone to report to the prince and princess."
The carriage was ready, and Li Yunhang endured his disgust. He said to the concubine and several concubines who came over, "Mother concubine, I'm going to stay in Zhuangzi for a while, and I'll be back in a few days."
Princess Liang said worriedly: "Hang'er, do you have a headache again? Why don't you ask Doctor Zhu to come over and take a look at you?"
Li Yunhang shook his head, "Concubine, I'm fine. I haven't slept well these past two days. I want to go to Zhuangzi to rest for a while."
Before Princess Liang could speak again, he got on the carriage and said to the driver, "Let's go."
After leaving the city, Li Yunhang sent people to rush towards Xijiang.
They arrived in Xijiang four days later. The place agreed upon by Song Jingyan and Fei Ying was the largest inn in Xijiang City.
Before Song Jingyan and the others arrived, Li Yunhang had booked this inn.
He sits in the hall every day, quietly drinking tea and reading, and looks outside from time to time.
Feiying was standing not far from him, watching the prince holding a book and not turning a page for a long time. What was he thinking?
By the afternoon of the third day, the sound of horse hooves could be heard outside the inn.
Li Yunhang was stunned for a moment, then stood up in excitement, dropped the book and ran out, even knocking down the stool behind him.
But after just two steps, he turned back and sat there and continued reading, looking very serious.
Fei Ying wanted to remind him that he had knocked down the book in his hand, but he was afraid that the prince would settle the score in the future, so he kept silent.
Anyway, the prince often makes a fool of himself in front of Miss Song, so it doesn't matter if he does it more or less.
Zhou Zhuangqiu led the horse in front, followed by ten guards and a carriage.
The shopkeeper had already received Fei Ying's instructions and came over with the waiter from the inn.
Song Jingyan got off the carriage and saw Li Yunhang sitting in the hall.
She was in a daze, remembering the last time they met three years ago.
It was a few days before she got married. Li Yunhang put her on his shoulders and wanted to take her away.
After being rejected by her, that desperate look would often appear in her dreams.
She thought that she would never forget that kind of pain in her life.
