Chapter 17 Stupid Maid
Lin Chong then reacted, hurriedly got up and left the table, thanked Su Yi. Su Yi smiled, distracted the conversation and talked about some of the world he was curious about. Lin Chong knew that he knew everything, and he had fun eating and drinking, and chatted happily. Until he got drunk, Su Yi left the tavern with the help of Lu Qian and Fatty Qian.
Cui had already returned to the mansion, but he left a carriage. Su Yi climbed onto the carriage, waved his hand to say goodbye to Lin Chong, and fell asleep in a daze with money. Lu Qian got the reward today, and he drank and talked with Su Yi, and he became much closer. In addition, Gao Qiu transferred him to Su Yi, so he regarded himself as the yamen's confidant. While driving, he thought in his heart. In the future, there will be a fight between the big and small yamen. What should he do and what should not be done, he should think about it in advance.
If it were just two yamen to stand in a row, Lu Qian would be a good choice. How could adoptive ones compare to their own children? But don’t forget that there was another Cui family. Cui family and Gao Qiu also met in the last moments. Gao Qiu was training in the border. Although he was in the emperor’s heart, he could be transferred back to the third yamen sooner or later. However, between "morning and evening", it can be early or late. If everyone holds it, it will be late. If everyone doesn’t support it, it will be late.
In recent years, it is necessary to make a good relationship in the army. Gao Qiu was born in a dilapidated family, so where did he get the money? It’s not the help of Cui’s family! It can be said that Gao Qiu owed the Cui family the affection. But he is now the Grand Marshal, and no one dares to mention it.
Lu Qian has been with the Taiwei Mansion for almost three years and is familiar with Gao Qiu's temper. Gao Qiu may have various shortcomings, but he is indeed a person who values friendship and nostalgia. Cui has an important position in his heart. Otherwise, he would not have arranged this event today, trying to ease the relationship between Cui and Su Yi.
The situation where the little Yanei will lose is that he has added a layer of variables with his wife as a helper. But Lu Qian still believes that Su Yi has a bigger chance of winning. Besides, he has no choice. After today's game, I'm afraid that in the eyes of Xiao Yanei, he is already a member of the big Yanei. If he doesn't hold on to the big Yanei's legs tightly, he won't be able to stay in the Taiwei Mansion in the future...
After thinking about it all, time passed quickly. Lu Qian felt that after a while, he had already arrived in front of the Taiwei Mansion.
Lu Qian calmed down, jumped out of the carriage, and whispered: "Yanei, you're home."
"Well..." Su Yi yawned in the carriage. After a while, he reached out and lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage. Fatty Qian was still sleeping. Su Yi kicked him and woke up, rubbed his eyes, and saw that there was Lu Qian next to him, and smiled embarrassedly.
"Yane, you are back." Su Yi had just stood still, and saw Xing'er running over in a panic. He wanted to grab his hand but didn't dare. He didn't know where his hands were swayed, and tears fell from his eyes.
Before Su Yi's wine could be fully awake, she was hit by Xing'er, and the alcohol was buzzing and she burped, and her mind became clearer.
Su Yi admires Xing'er, the maid. The osmanthus cake she made is delicious and never comes late.
"What's so panicked?" Su Yi stretched out his waist, took the big cloak handed over by Fatty Qian and put it on his body, and walked in. Xing'er followed him and said anxiously: "Yane, the mansion is already in chaos. The Grand Marshal knew about the little Yanei teasing Lady Lin, and insisted on driving the little Yanei away. The lady protected the little Yanei and said that if the little Yanei was driving away, she would also go back to her parents' home. The Grand Marshal was really angry this time and wanted to write a divorce letter. The lady said to him..." Suddenly Xing'er stopped talking, Su Yi looked at her, and she understood, and smiled and said, "The eldest lady said that he didn't like the mother and mother because of my biological son? Is that what he meant?"
Xing'er nodded vigorously, and did not forget to pick herself up, and whispered: "This is not what I said."
"What's going on?"
Xing'er said the truth: "Mrs. She cried for a while, she was exhausted and fainted. I helped her wife back to rest. However, the little Yanei was still kneeling outside the study..." Xing'er looked at Su Yi's face and added: "It has been kneeling for more than an hour. The lady said, only you can persuade me, let me do it..." Suddenly, Xing'er got stuck again, opened her mouth, as if she had been imposed on a fixed posture, and I don't know how to say it.
Su Yi was amused by her and said, "Did you let me know? Did the lady ask you to wait for me at the door?"
"No, no," Xing'er quickly waved her hand and defended her urgently: "It was my own thought! I saw that the wife was crying so sadly--" Su Yi smiled but didn't say anything, Xing'er couldn't find any compensation anymore, so she had to admit it, saying, "Yanei, in fact, the little Yanei has never done anything too bad, and there is a wife who cares about him. He is, um," Xing'er frowned and thought about it, and then said, "He just wanted people to think that he was a evil young man, but when it came to Zhenzhang, he didn't dare. This time, he had confessed that it was to make the Taiwei get tired of you, so he had to dig a trap for you to jump. The Taiwei was angry, so he refused to forgive him."
"So, he deliberately stumbling up!" Su Yi was angry and said, "Then I can't help him. If you go to reply to your wife, just say that I don't add to the wrongs is a kindness and righteousness. I am not so generous to repay the grudge with kindness!"
"Yane, Madam said, I won't let you help you in vain!" Xing'er saw that Su Yi was angry, and directly showed her trump card and said, "Madam said, if you help, keep the little Yanei in the mansion. Although she can't give you this business to you in the future, she can promise you a good future. Do what she says!"
Su Yi smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that the eldest lady still thinks that I have come to do business. No matter how I say it, it doesn't make sense. Forget it, I'll help you. Just tell the eldest lady, just don't cause trouble if you have nothing to do. After the imperial examination, I will leave the capital. It's only a few months before and after, why bother too much?"
"I must tell you, the little Yanei is still kneeling—"
"Go and go and have a look!"
Xing'er quickly led the way. In order to save time, he walked not the same road he took yesterday. He walked through the middle of a rockery and arrived in a few steps. It was more than twice as fast as yesterday. Su Yi couldn't help but laugh and cry. He suspected that Xing'er took him on the other road on purpose yesterday.
"Yane, there." When she arrived, Xing'er didn't dare to get close. She was afraid that something would make a sound, which alarmed Gao Qiu in anger. She was just a maid, how could she afford it?
