Chapter 332 The Maid Intending to Sleep with the Master

Qin Huaiyong also frowned and said after a long while, “We can say that Yuru has been bewitched and stayed in our mansion recently to ward off the evil spirits!”

“We… can only say that!” Madam Dowager nodded, and said helplessly, “Should we ask someone to our mansion to drive away the evil spirits?”

“It’s not necessary!”

Qin Yuru had a bad reputation, but fortunately Di Yan was the same. In addition, Madam Di came from Duke Yong’s Mansion. They would probably not break the promise of the marriage between Qin Yuru and Di Yan. It could be considered the sheer luck among these misfortunes!

Now that they had figured out a proper way to solve the problem, Qin Huaiyong sent Madam Dowager to the door.

“Madam Dowager, Madam Shui doesn’t feel well!” Seeing them coming out, the manservant, who was guarding at the door, hurried over to report.

“When did it happen?” Madam Dowager felt her legs went weak and became so anxious that her face changed immediately.

“A moment ago. Madam Shui almost collapsed after walking out of the door. The Second Miss took Madam Shui to a yard beside them, where Madam Shui could have a rest, and sent someone to ask the doctor to come over. Madam Shui was finally carried away.” The manservant reported with his head covered with sweat. Seeing Madam Shui suffering, he intended to help but was rejected by Qionghua.

“Mother, I’ll go and see her!” Qin Huaiyong strode out with great anxiety. He really looked forward to the baby in Shui Ruolan’s belly.

“Okay, you can go now. I’ll go there soon!” Madam Dowager answered repeatedly.

Qin Huaiyong walked out of the yard with a manservant and headed towards Chuihua Gate. Upon his arrival at Chuihua Gate, a maid suddenly rushed out sideways. She was frightened, staggered and coincidently fell down beside him.

“General!” She raised her delicate face, and immediately exclaimed in a sweet voice after clearly seeing Qin Huaiyong in front of her.

Qin Huaiyong glanced over the maid’s face which was pretty and different from the face of an ordinary maid. With coldness in his eyes, he didn’t stop, but passed by her and left with big strides.

The manservant, who walked behind him, recognized that this maid was named Huangrui and had served Madam Di. With a hint of sarcasm on his face, he also passed by her and strode away.

Although he hadn’t seen this kind of trick in General’s Mansion, he had heard of it. He heard that it was often a trap for hooking up with the male master. This maid, who served Madam Di, looked like an ordinary girl from a good family rather than an ordinary maid from a humble family. In fact, she must be a frivolous girl intending to hook up with the master!

The general was extremely anxious at the moment, with no time to pay attention to this maid.

The two men both passed by and ignored Huangrui, as if they didn’t see her. Her delicate face became a little stiff. Huangrui watched Qin Huaiyong leave in disbelief. She really couldn’t believe that she couldn’t make Qin Huaiyong stop for a while by acting like that.

The Nanny, who had instructed her, told her that acting like that was the most likely to make a man feel tender and protective. Why didn’t the general look at her?

“Huangrui, you should get up quickly. The ground is so cold in the winter. Sitting on the ground will do harm to the health of a fragile girl like you.” The old maid guarding Chuihua Gate stared at Huangrui with a smile, talked to her, came over and reached out to help her up.

Huangrui blushed. Although the old maid didn’t laugh at her, she could tell that the old maid obviously knew something. If she succeeded, she wouldn’t worry about what an old maid said. But now she failed and the old maid saw the embarrassing scene, so she felt ashamed and angry.

She pushed away the old maid’s hand, got up by herself, gnashed her teeth and intended to leave.

“Huangrui, where are you going? To the outer courtyard?” The old maid reminded her with a smile.

Realizing that she had taken the wrong way in a moment of desperation, Huangrui hurriedly turned back.

“Huangrui, do you know why the general is so anxious?” the old maid asked with a smile.

Huangrui stopped, adjusted her attitude, turned around and pretended to be calm。 “Why?”

“Madam Shui is sick!” The old maid looked around and said in a low voice.

“Sick? What’s the matter with her?” Huangrui said with her eyes lighting up.

“Nothing serious. She just feels a little uncomfortable. Whenever Madam Shui feels uncomfortable, the general is always the most anxious,” the old maid whispered and reached out to point at the direction of Shui Ruolan’s yard. “Now Madam Shui is the most important person in the general’s mind, so he’s unlikely to annoy Madam Shui at this time. She’s pregnant with the young master in the future!”

The old maid said in an increasingly low voice, and reached out to touch her belly. Seeing Huangrui’s thoughtful face, the old maid got closer to her and said, “If she gives birth to a boy, he will be the only heir of our mansion. He’s definitely incomparable to the First Miss, the daughter of Madam Di!”

“Is Madam Shui really going to give birth to a boy?” Huangrui bit her lip and involuntarily asked.

“Very likely. It is said that Madam Shui has been diagnosed by a doctor. The general is even more concerned with Madam Shui now. If something terrible happens to Madam Shui, anyone involved in it is doomed!” The old maid said cautiously, seeming to be sincere, “Huangrui, stay away from Madam Shui at this time, or you’ll be killed even without knowing why!”

“Will, will be killed?” With her red face immediately turning pale, Huangrui said in a trembling voice!

“Don’t you know that the general has killed numerous rebels? The blood flowed like stream, and the bodies were piled up as big as a mountain. The general doesn’t act like the civilized officials in the capital, who just beat their servants or expel them!” the old maid said.

“I, I was sent here by Duke Yong’s Mansion… The contract of selling myself is still in Duke Yong’s Mansion!” On hearing this, Huangrui felt her hair erected, but still held back her fear and said.

“So what?” The old maid curled her lip and said, “Do you think that Duke Yong’s Mansion will confront with our General’s Mansion for a maid?”

Even if she wasn’t a maid of Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion, the contract of selling herself wasn’t in her own hands. If her master did not want to make a big fuss because of her, her master would just leave her to die without doing anything!

“Through suppressing rebellions, our general has been very experienced in interrogating prisoners. He can make them cry for a few days without dying but injured all over…” Speaking of this, the old maid also trembled and looked around with a guilty conscience, as if at this time Qin Huaiyong had sent someone to watch them.

Huangrui felt that today the wind was even colder and almost blew into her bones. Each of her bones was filled with coldness, making her feel gloomy. With her lips suddenly turning pale, she suddenly regretted it!

Ningyuan Army General was so murderous. How dared she seduce him? If something went wrong, she would probably die without a complete body, not to mention stay alive.

She seemingly saw Qin Huaiyong stab her with a sharp bloody dagger, which made her legs go weak and her fall to the ground heavily.

This time she actually fell, which was different from the scene where she deliberately waited for the right time to rush over and fall in front of Qin Huaiyong.

“Huangrui, what’s the matter with you? Get up quickly. Did the cold weather cause the numbness in your feet? A pretty girl like you isn’t destined to be a maid. You deserve a good master. No young master won’t like you!”

The old maid came over enthusiastically and intended to help her up again.

With her lips trembling, Huangrui could not say a word. Fortunately, the old maid was strong enough to help her up, while patting the dirty corner of her clothes and murmuring, “Someone like Childe Di is the most tender towards girls. I heard that he argued with the childes from other aristocratic families for a girl working in the brothel. Duke Yong’s Mansion said nothing, and even secretly picked her up and allowed her to enter the mansion.”

The words didn’t seem to be said to Huangrui, but directly fell into her mind, as if something had taken root in her mind, where she had some thoughts, and made her feel a hint of warmth in the winter. She had an inspiration and instantly stopped trembling.

Now the heir of Duke Yong seemed to be the only one who could help her break the situation!

Since this heir was tender towards girls and could fight with his family for a girl so that the girl from a brothel could be accepted by his family, her problem was not a problem at all.

Although the contract of selling herself was in the hands of Old Madam of Duke Yong’s Mansion, Old Madam would probably not baffle her grandson. Thinking of this, Huangrui regained her strength and stood still with the old maid’s help. She suddenly thought of something she had heard before and pretended to be gossiping, “I heard that the First Miss can’t marry Childe Di yet?”

“Yeah, they said that. I’m wondering what makes the First Miss and Madam Di rest assured. If Childe Di has a son in these two years, he will be the eldest son. The eldest son is different from other children and even likely to inherit Duke Yong’s Mansion!”

The old maid said with a smile.

The eldest son, even the eldest son of a concubine, had a different meaning for a family. If the general did not have a son of his legitimate wife, the eldest son of a concubine would be the heir. Thinking of this, Huangrui felt fervor in her heart. Compared to the dead end in Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion, it was a way out and even a way to the bright future. As long as she had properly planned, she would succeed easily!

Huangrui was tempted!

Why didn’t she think of it before! Although she had belonged to Duke Yong’s Mansion in the past, she didn’t work there. She was only accompanied by some girls of the same age and educated by several old maids, even with no man around. Now she had a good opportunity, and was in Ningyuan Army General’s Mansion. No one took precautions against her likely to meet the heir of Duke Yong’s Mansion.

“I’ll go back to take care of Madam!” For fear that the old maid would notice her strange expression, Huangrui said in a hurry, politely bowed to the old maid to thank her for helping her up, and then left gracefully.

Watching Huangrui go away, the old maid beamed with joy, and even the wrinkles on her face were all blooming. She finally accomplished the task assigned by Nanny Yu! She had been told to keep an eye on this maid named Huangrui. Now Huangrui voluntarily rushed out, which happened to offer her the chance to tell Huangrui about those things!

After Huangrui completely vanished in her view, the old maid also turned and left…
