Chapter 106 Thoughts
When Nanny Yu returned home, she went to Rong'en Hall immediately.
Old Madam Xiao looked a little unhappy.
Nanny Yu quickly asked Cui Yu, the maidservant beside her, in a low voice, "Who has upset the old lady?"
Cui Yu shook her head gently, "The old lady had a nightmare during her break."
how come?
Didn’t you sleep well last night?
Nanny Yu waved her hand gently, asking Cuiyu to lead the people to retreat, while she stepped forward and gently massaged Madam Xiao's forehead.
Madam Xiao closed her eyes slightly and asked, "Did you get the rouge cream back?"
Nanny Yu smiled and said, "Miss Qin said that she brought all the things she made back to Sixth Master last time. The mansion was busy during the New Year and there was nothing ready. When she makes them in a few days, she will ask the maids in the mansion to bring them over."
Madam Xiao frowned, and after a long while she snorted and said, "It's quite an ingenious idea."
Regardless of whether she has the stuff ready or not, she won't let Nanny Yu bring it back so that she will have an excuse to continue interacting with the Xiao family in the future.
Nanny Yu stopped, took out the gold card from her purse, and gently placed it on the table in front of the old lady, saying, "This is a gift from Miss Qin. She said it's called a 'VIP card'."
"Miss Qin said that in a few months, her rouge shop will open. With this card, no matter who goes, everything will be sold at half price."
Madam Xiao then slowly opened her eyes and glanced at the gold card indifferently.
Give her a card and sell it at half price.
Once such a good thing is recognized by the world, it will surely become a hot commodity that the ladies and young ladies from all over the country will scramble for.
The price won’t be cheap.
The daughters of wealthy families always have exquisite faces.
In order to make herself beautiful and stand out when looking for a husband, people are willing to spend a lot of money on her face.
Rouge cream is a must-use every day.
Even if you have money at home, it's better to save some.
Seeing that Madam Xiao's expression eased a little, Nanny Yu replied, "I went to the Qin residence and learned that Miss Qin had established a female household a few years ago."
Madam Xiao was startled. "Female household? Does she want to marry herself or find a husband?"
Nanny Yu said, "I don't know. When I left, Miss Qin happened to return to her family to open the ancestral temple and enter the family tree."
Madam Xiao thought for a moment and asked, "What do you think of her house now?"
Yu Ma Ma thought and replied, "The mansion is clean and tidy. The servants and guards are all there, but the rules and etiquette are a little disappointing. I heard that she dismissed all the servants in the mansion before, so these should be new people."
This shows that the little girl is quite skilled in housekeeping.
The old lady asked again, "What did she say when you went?"
When Nanny Yu heard this, she knew what her master meant.
This is because they are afraid that Miss Qin is thinking about Sixth Master and is trying to find out about him in a roundabout way.
Nanny Yu quickly replied, "I only asked about the old lady's health. She said that when she was at Pudu Temple, she looked tired. I'm afraid she didn't sleep well at night."
Madam Xiao pondered and said, "He is a careful child."
He is thoughtful, sensible, courageous and resourceful.
It's just a pity.
With such a background and both parents dead, he was still born so outstanding.
In this world where tigers and rhinos are rampant, I'm afraid you will encounter a lot of trouble in the future.
For a single woman, helpless and with no one to rely on, who finally has some connection with the Xiao family, it is understandable that she would spend more time trying to get close to them.
Thinking of this, Madam Xiao sighed and said, "Forget it. When her shop opens, I'll buy more rouge and powder from her and give some to the ladies in the capital and the palace. It can also be considered as helping that child."
As long as he doesn't think about her sixth son, she doesn't mind showing kindness.
Thinking of that devil, Old Madam Xiao asked again, "Where has Cheng'er been? She hasn't even been seen for most of the day?"
Nanny Yu quickly sent someone to ask.
Not long after, the maid came back, "Replying to the old lady, the Sixth Master went to the Governor's Office early in the morning and said that Lord Ji asked the Sixth Master to go over and help for a few days."
Madam Xiao snorted and laughed, "Cheng'er is actually willing to work in the government office? This is really the sun rising in the west."
She stretched out her hand and pointed out the window with a smile, and said to Aunt Yu: "Go and see if the sun rises in the west and sets in the east today?"
Nanny Yu also laughed, "Sixth Master may seem playful on weekdays, but he actually has a lot on his mind."
Madam Xiao snorted, "His father is a jerk. He didn't want to do a good job, but insisted on setting up Xiaoyue Mountain Villa. He spends all day fooling around with a bunch of gangsters. He's not steady at all at his age."
"Grandma, are you talking about Cheng'er?"
A clear male voice sounded outside the door, and before the words were finished, Xiao Cheng walked in with a smile on his face.
The young and handsome man was wearing a dark blue robe, which was slim and fitted, with a straight back. The collar, cuffs and shoulders were embroidered with exquisite patterns in gold and silver threads, and the three-finger-wide belt was inlaid with gold and jade, tightly binding his thin and powerful waist.
Looks gorgeous and noble.
A pair of peach blossom eyes sparkling, every frown and smile is full of affection.
The little girl standing at the door blushed slightly as she felt the breeze created by the man passing by.
Xiao Cheng greeted the old lady, then bowed slightly to Yu Mama, and said with a smile, "Grandma, what was you talking about just now? Can you tell me?"
Madam Xiao glanced at Nanny Yu and said with a smile, "I'm talking about your father. Why did you suddenly remember to go to the government office to work?"
Xiao Cheng replied, "Before the New Year, when the government office was closed, Lord Ji mentioned to his grandson that he should go over to help when the government office reopened after the New Year. Anyway, his grandson has nothing to do, so it's a good opportunity to go over and learn something."
He turned his eyes and saw the gold card next to his grandmother's hand. He walked over and touched it, turning it over and over in his hand. "What is this? Hey, Qin?"
There is a small "Qin" engraved in the plum blossom pattern in the upper left corner of the card. Was it sent by Qin Shu?
Has she been here?
When did you come?
Already gone?
Why didn’t I see it when I came back?
Xiao Cheng suddenly thought of Qin Shu, who was still in mourning and would definitely not come to visit rashly, so he smiled and asked, "Qin? Was it sent by Miss Qin?"
Madam Xiao winked at Nanny Yu and said indifferently, "You just came back? You haven't seen your mother yet, right?"
Xiao Cheng's eyes were still fixed on the card, and he replied casually, "No, I came to pay my respects to you, Grandma, as soon as I got back."
He smiled coquettishly and looked at his grandmother flatteringly, "Grandma, this card..."
Madam Xiao snatched the card and said angrily, "That's a rouge shop that sells things that only girls like. What use do you have for this card as a man?"
Then he handed it to Nanny Yu and said, "Put it away."
It's not for him!
Xiao Cheng felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart, and she forced a smile and said, "I just asked, I didn't ask for it. Then the grandson went to Zhilanyuan."
After saying that, he left.
As soon as Xiao Cheng left, Old Madam Xiao's face darkened.
