Chapter 788 pity
"Ah, Fourth Master..." Xue Wanqing seemed to have a conditioned reflex, hurriedly pushed Xiao Wei away, and knelt on the ground with a plop, "Fourth Master, this slave did not do it on purpose, this slave...does not intend to offend Fourth Master!"
Xiao Wei was also speechless, and repeated this over and over again. He was young and vigorous, and he couldn't stand provocations. He said to Xue Wanqing, "Since you serve my mother, you should go back quickly!"
"Fourth Master, slave girl, slave girl dare not go back!" Xue Wanqing knelt on the ground and said in tears, "I am worried that my side concubine will punish slave servant, slave servant really did not intentionally offend fourth master, please take pity on slave servant, slave servant is willing to serve fourth master!"
Xiao Wei naturally knew what the woman meant by the word "serve". He had already reached the age of knowing people, so he blushed and said, "There is no woman in my courtyard, and I haven't married a wife yet. There is no need for women to serve."
Xue Wanqing's hand gently pinched Xiao Wei's ankle, he almost jumped up in fright, his whole body's bones seemed to be brittle, and he took a step back, "You, why are you so..."
Xue Wanqing raised her head, "Fourth Master, I used to be the daughter of a good family, and I couldn't help myself until I got to where I am today. Fourth Master, I used to be as good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting as the county... people, please take pity on me!"
Xiao Wei has never encountered such a thing, he only felt that this woman's full-bodied appearance really aroused pity, and he couldn't help but feel as if someone had cast a spell on his body, and he didn't know how to move.
Xue Wanqing hurriedly took advantage of this opportunity, stepped forward and hugged Xiao Wei, and cried in his arms, "Fourth Lord, this servant does not ask for anything other than a place to settle down. Fourth Master, this servant has no extravagance. If you want to make the quilt and make the bed for Fourth Master, the servants will definitely abide by their duties and not cause trouble for Fourth Master."
"You, you, let go first!" Xiao Wei stammered, but couldn't help but put his arms around Xue Wanqing, he took a deep breath, and had to promise, "I'll go and tell my mother, you, don't cry !"
Bai Ling came to look for Xiao Wei, and saw Xiao Wei pushing away a woman in his arms from a distance, and the woman walked towards the Yulan Courtyard step by step, she hurried forward and said to Xiao Wei, "Fourth Master, the princess please four Father go."
Xiao Wei hurriedly shivered all over, not daring to delay, followed Bai Ling to Ninghui Hall.
"sit down!"
Xiao Wei saluted Xie Zhiwei, and then sat down in a respectful manner. Xie Zhiwei saw that his cheeks were reddish and his expression was wandering, so he couldn't help but look at Bai Ling. Bai Ling gestured to her, and Xie Zhiwei's gaze turned cold.
"Fourth brother, I heard that there is a maid named Wanxue at home. Aunt Huaying brought her back from outside because you redeemed her. She must be grateful to you, Zaide?"
Xiao Wei said "ah", and couldn't help but blushed, not knowing what to say, so he lowered his head hurriedly.
"Tell me, what do you think of that girl?" Xie Zhiwei said, "Many of the princes and ministers have housemates. As your sister-in-law, I shouldn't be in your room. To tell you the truth Said, if you fall in love with other maids, I can call her to you as long as I hear the wind, but this woman is the only one, no!"
Xiao Wei is not stupid. Thinking of this woman's sudden appearance and meeting him several times, her temperament is not as humble and well-behaved as other maids, so she hurriedly got up and saluted Xie Zhiwei, "I beg my sister-in-law to enlighten me!"
Xie Zhiwei was very satisfied, and said, "Sit down and talk, you don't know the past, I don't blame you, but you have to remember that women value virtue, and rules are the foundation of an invincible family."
"I heard that the woman is called Qin Wanxue, but in fact, she is called Xue Wanqing. Her real identity is my cousin, and her mother is my father's younger sister. She was the wife of the eldest son of Ningyuanbo's mansion. My cousin lived in Xie's house for five years. When I was ten years old, I returned to the Xue family, and was later bestowed by the emperor as the concubine of the fourth prince, and for some reason, I later defected to Dalou, and Dalou was subjugated, presumably because of fate, I returned to Beiqi again."
Xiao Wei gasped, she was actually the concubine of the fourth prince, what is that? They brothers enjoy the same woman? Or did he pick up the escaped concubine of the Fourth Prince?
Xiao Wei had lingering fears in his heart, and couldn't help feeling anxious, "Since my sister-in-law knows, why, why did you let her stay in the mansion?"
"On the ninth day of the lunar new year, she pretended to meet you and Brother Xi by chance, and took advantage of your kindness to be brought back to the mansion by Aunt Huaying. Arranging this matter has only been delayed until now."
However, Xiao Wei knew that his mother's status was embarrassing at the time. She said she was the master but had no status. His mother brought a maid back, and if she was dealt with immediately by the princess, she would be ashamed. Therefore, the princess ordered people to stare at her and forbear her.
He could understand his sister-in-law's kindness to his mother and child, so he hurriedly saluted Xie Zhiwei, "Sister-in-law, I was confused."
While talking, the woman on the second door came forward and said, "Princess, Mrs. Liu from Ming Shilang's family has brought her daughter, Miss Ming, to see the princess."
Ming An has been supervising the management of the palace here. Seeing that the day to return home is nowhere in sight, and he heard about the move of the capital with his own ears, he simply bought a house here first and brought his family over.
Yesterday, Mrs. Liu and her daughter Ming Wan watched Xie Zhiwei's Jiji ceremony together. At the banquet, she specially brought her daughter to toast Xie Zhiwei.
Since his sister-in-law had a guest, Xiao Wei left in a hurry, Xie Zhiwei didn't keep him, and only told Bai Ling, "Go and tell the side concubine Wan Xue's identity and background, and see how the side concubine handles it?"
Xiao Wei was so ashamed that he couldn't contain himself, and hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, let me tell mother about this!"
Xie Zhiwei didn't want to deal with Xue Wanqing either, so he nodded in agreement.
When Xiao Wei went out, he happened to see Mrs. Liu and his daughter coming, so he stood sideways under the eaves of the corridor to avoid it. When he raised his eyes, he happened to meet Miss Ming's eyes. There was someone next to the pillar, so I couldn't help but look over, who knew it was a young man, blushing involuntarily, and hurriedly averted his gaze.
Seeing this, Xiao Wei had no choice but to take two extra steps, turned around and walked towards the Chaoshou verandah.
Xie Zhiwei moved to the Ming room, and after Liu Shi and Ming Wan saluted, she pulled Ming Wan to praise her again, and told Bai Ling, "Go and invite the princess and the young lady to talk with the young lady Ming."
After a while, Xiao Lingsu and Linghua came together. After the three of them met, Linghua said to take Mingwan out for a walk in the garden, "The flowers in the greenhouse are blooming better, and it's not cold inside. let's go shopping!"
After the three girls left, Mrs. Liu said thank you, Xie Zhiwei said, "You don't have to be so polite, there is a lot of fate between people, I just like Miss Ming, and I don't know who will be in the future. If you have such a blessing to marry, then you really have accumulated virtues from your ancestors."
