Reborn to Be A Noble Wife

Chapter 620 Prince Qi should hire someone else

Seeing that someone was there, the maid hastily avoided the curb, her head lowered.

Qu Mo Ying and the granny walked by, the granny was vigorously introducing this red plum scenery to Qu Mo Ying, not noticing the maiden standing with her head bowed under the tree at the side of the road.

“Fourth Miss Qu, it’s windy here, would it be alright if the slave girl takes you to sit in the warm pavilion above? Enjoying the view from that area is excellent, you can see the outside scenery and it’s warm.”

The granny stood still smiling and pointed to a pavilion at the red plum.

The location is just right and is indeed a great place to enjoy the view.

“Thank you Sister, just is this place … convenient?” Qu Mo Ying asked with a slight smile after taking a look.

“Convenient, there’s no one in the Warming Pavilion today, and other than the Prefect coming over during this time, other people rarely come over, so it won’t get in anyone’s way.”

The granny was attentive.

Qu Mo Ying nodded and followed the granny over, Yu Dong walked behind him and looked back, the maid who was standing in the corner under the tree just now was already gone.

Qu Mo Ying followed the granny up to the second floor, there were tables and chairs on the second floor by the window, sitting here was indeed a good place to enjoy the scenery.

The window is facing this red plum.

“Fourth Miss, you sit here, the slave girl will be close by to fetch some tea and snacks over.” The granny watched as Qu Mo Ying sat down in front of the window, smilingly said and retreated.

“Miss, there was someone in the chamber just now, it should be a woman.” Waiting for the granny’s footsteps to go down, Yu Dong then whispered.

“How do you know it’s a woman?”

“When the slave girl entered the door, she vaguely smelled a fragrance, very light, but not from the dowager lady, often those young misses, only with such a smoky incense … is very elegant, but it can not be ignored.” Yu Dong weighed the wording.

That flavor was not strong, but it was not to be ignored, Yu Dong was not a woman, and could not distinguish what kind of flavor was in it, but could only name some commonalities.

“The smell is a reason, the stand at the door is also a reason, the curtain is slightly picked up, the slave girl sees that the inner room is skirted, can be so unaware of the rules of picking the curtain to listen to, how can it not be an underling.”

Yudong gave another reason, and his last one was also very good, “When the young lady took her leave, there was a slight movement inside, a movement that seemed to have accidentally touched something, and there was also the sound of thin footsteps that moved two steps.”

Yu Dong was extremely sensitive in this regard, and after originally having some suspicions and realizing that the focus of the suspicions was on the inner room, he paid even more attention to the inner room.

Qu Mo Ying accompanied Mrs. Qi to sit on a chair, and he stood right behind Qu Mo Ying, flanked by the door to that inner room, where his attention had been since then.

“Who do you think it is?” Qu Mo Ying smiled faintly and said noncommittally, she also heard some commotion afterward, and at that time, she looked at Yu Dong, just wanting to ask for an answer here in Yu Dong.

Raindon’s speech was to be expected.

The fragrance is extremely light, she also smelled at that time, did not pay much attention, this will think about it, only to find that Mrs. Qi’s house is not smoked incense, this smell is naturally someone to bring in.

That elegant fragrance was exactly the favorite smell of a lady of the world.

“The slave girl … guessed that it was the Jingyu county gentleman.” Yu Dong thought briefly and said, “What does Miss think?”

“It’s Prefect Jingyu.” Qu Mo Ying nodded her head thoughtfully, her marriage, how did she let this Jingyu Prefect think about it again?

She didn’t think it had anything to do with Liu Jingyu!

“Miss, what does Jingyu County Jun want?” Yu Dong had a quick wit and hurriedly said, for this Jing Yu County Jun, the few maids around Qu Mo Ying were wary.

This one to their own miss never nothing good will, look everywhere no big mistake, may also be a misunderstanding, but think carefully, not just a misunderstanding can be explained.

“Wait!” Qu Mo Ying slowly said, his gaze falling at the peach forest in front of the window.

A granny brought a maid over, each carrying a food basket in her hand, should have brought snacks over.

Sure enough, it wasn’t long before the sound of feet going up the stairs was heard, and the granny appeared at the stairway with two maids.

“Fourth Miss Qu, the slave girl has fetched some snacks and tea over, you can enjoy the scenery here while using some snacks.” The granny smiled and came over, letting one of the maids take out the snacks from the food basket, and took the teacups and teapot out from the other food basket.

The water in the teapot was poured out hot, and the tea smelled faintly of having only been brewed down.

A pot, two tea cups, poured a cup and sent it to Qu Mo Ying’s face, the granny respectfully retreated, leaving the master and servant alone upstairs.

Looking down from upstairs, he saw that the mother-in-law had not left, and that the two maids who had come with food baskets had gone away.

The dim sum was exquisite, four plates in all, appetizing to look at, and as if it had only just been made, the aroma was delightful.

Qu Mo Ying picked up the tea in his hand and was about to drink it.

“Miss, wait a moment first.” Yu Dong hurriedly said.

Qu Mo Ying knew what he meant and smiled faintly, “It’s not in the way, even if there was something, it wouldn’t be done so blatantly.”

Hands raised the cup of tea, took a sip, tea excellent, not the usual flavor.

It is not easy to have this kind of tea at a time like this, it is more like the tributes that have been drunk in the past, this tea from the Duke of Qi is not something that one can normally drink.

His eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze falling back to the pastries in front of him, such exquisite fine points, even if it was the Duke of Qi’s residence, it wouldn’t be something that was made often.

If she was reading it correctly, the recipes for the pastries weren’t easy to come by, and the ingredients weren’t readily available when it came to spares.

What a coincidence today, good tea with good snacks, all as if prepared for myself.

Willow eyebrows slightly knit a frown, the attitude of Mrs. Qi today is also too eager some, hiding the people in the inner room, and this specially prepared tea snacks …

Pazi unconsciously in the fingers gently wound a little, thoughtfully looking at the window outside the red plum, plum color is bright, bloom rich, it is a good time to enjoy the plum, this is also a good place to enjoy the plum.

“Miss, is the one coming over there the Prince of the Duchy of Qi?” Although Yu Dong didn’t see any other meaning in this tea, she had been paying attention to the bottom, and suddenly saw the three people hurriedly coming over from the bottom, the first one was none other than Qi Xiu Ran, the current son of the Duke of Qi, and on one side was a boy.

Behind him was also followed by a maiden, Yu Dong carefully measured this maiden a little, suddenly realized that this maiden was the maiden who stood in the corner under the tree and bowed her head when they came over just now.

“Miss, the maid behind Qi Shizi, is the maid who avoided the roadside when we came over just now.” Yu Dong hurriedly added, his eyes were the sharpest.

“The one that went and came back?” Quemoy Ying asked.

“Yes, it’s just going and coming back.” Yu Dong nodded, his expression alert, today’s events were full of doubts, he had to be more attentive.

“Yu Dong, go down to the stairway, if Qi Shizi comes over and asks what’s going on, don’t let Qi Shizi go upstairs.” Qu Mo Ying’s face turned cold as he commanded.

Qi Xiuran’s figure could no longer be seen from this angle of hers.

“There are grannies downstairs, they should stop Qi Shizi first.” Yu Dong walked outward while saying, only the sound of feet going up the stairs was already coming from his ears.

It was the granny who came up to report? Subconsciously, he turned his head to look at Qu Mo Ying.

“There’s no need to go over, it’s already up here, go and welcome the Qi Shizi.” Qu Mo Ying raised his head and faintly said.

“That granny …” Yu Dong hurriedly said, and the sound of footsteps in his ears got closer and closer.

“That granny should no longer be there, it doesn’t matter, go and welcome it!” Qu Mo Ying said, a trace of coldness flashed under his eyes, all of this today meant that someone was secretly making efforts, but he didn’t know what for.

Now that she was here, she would meet and see who was behind the push and what the purpose was!

Qi Xiuran appeared at the stairway and Yu Dong greeted him.

“Slave girl has met Prince Qi.”

Qi Xiuran wasn’t surprised, lifting his steps towards Qu Mo Ying, who had already gotten up early and saw him coming over with a full salute, “Qi Shizi.”

“Fourth Miss Qu is polite, please sit down.” Qi Xiuran pointed to the chair with a smile and sat down first.

Qu Mo Ying also sat down, Yu Dong went to the table, picked up the teapot, poured tea cups for the other empty cup, and respectfully sent it to Qi Xiuran’s face, “World Son, please use it.”

“Fourth Miss Qu is polite!” Qi Xiuran laughed, his expression was very elegant, picking up the teacup and taking a sip before lifting his head to look at Qu Mo Ying, opening the door, “Fourth Miss Qu, I have an uninvited request, I wonder if Fourth Miss Qu can do me a favor.”

So it’s true that it’s coming to you.

Qu Mo Ying inclined his eyes to look at Qi Xiuran, seeing that he looked sincere, his eyes were a bit hesitant but still quite frank, and his demeanor was not half as different as in the past days, only slightly from his actions it looked like there were a few moments of urgency.

“The tea and snacks were specially prepared by the World Son?” Qu Mo Ying unhurriedly said.

“Yes, a little tiny token of appreciation, the tea was given by the palace, and I heard that the dim sum is not ordinary, I had a request for the fourth miss Qu, and purposely had it made up, just when I heard that the fourth miss Qu was going to come over to the mansion, this is a token of my sincerity.” Qi Xiuran said offhandedly.

“How did the World Son know I was coming to your residence?” Qu Mo Ying asked again.

“Everyone in the mansion knows, I let people inquire a little to know, Fang also let the subordinates pay attention to Fourth Miss Qu, I heard that Fourth Miss Qu came here to enjoy the plums, so I came over to meet Fourth Miss Qu on purpose.” Qi Xiuran explained, not only did he say what he had to say, but he said it in more detail than what Qu Mo Ying asked.

So there’s this maid thing, there’s this pastry and tea thing.

See Qi Xiu Ran’s appearance, they know that there is a request for their own, but then think of Mrs. Qi’s abnormal behavior, as well as the people in the inner room, Qu Mo Ying’s lip corner of the silent hook, and then raised his eyes to look at Qi Xiu Ran’s time, has been a piece of calm and cold cleaner, “No matter what Qi Shizi is asking for, I can only say I’m sorry, I’m afraid that …. . have to let Qi Shizi disappointed, Qi Shizi or another please!”

“I … haven’t said anything … yet,” Qi Xiuran spread his hands in an extremely innocent manner.

“No matter what it is, it won’t work!” Qu Mo Ying narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath, his eyes were resolute, decisively refusing.
