Grandma Li's back molars were grinding loudly, and Qianxue felt that she could reach Zhao with a knife in the next moment.

"The young master was so cold that he couldn't move his legs. I was afraid that he would become disabled. The young master had a high fever at the time and was talking nonsense about this. The result... you also saw it."

Nanny Li glanced at Qian Xue, the anger in her eyes could not be hidden.

Qian Xue just said it casually, but she didn't expect that there was so much resentment buried underneath.

Grandma Li took a breath and looked at Qian Xue.

"Go and talk to the young master about this when he comes back."

Qianxue felt a little frightened when she heard this. Grandma Li was so excited that the young master would not hesitate to give in.

Seeing her hesitation, Grandma Li added, "If I were to talk about this matter, I'm afraid the young master would be even more angry. On the contrary, because you are not the person involved, you can persuade the young master with gentle words."

Qianxue swallowed until she could no longer refuse.

"Have you been having a bad temper with the young master these days?" Nanny Li looked at her for a while and then said something out of the blue.

Qianxue quickly shook her head, "I don't dare."

"I don't mean to blame you. Since I came back from Qi Mansion last time, I feel that you are a lot stranger to the young master."

Grandma Li looked at Qianxue seriously, staring at her until she could not avoid it.

Qianxue didn't know how to answer, so she could only bury her head lower.

"Well, the young master has not had a woman in the backyard for so many years. The ones he has interacted with the most are Mrs. Zhao and those aunts. He has always been somewhat prejudiced against the women in the backyard."

Qianxue raised her head slightly, feeling sour in her heart. Could it be that Jing Yu thought that she was the same type of person as the Zhao family?

She blinked her eyes, and the grievance almost overflowed from her eyes.

Nanny Li reached out and touched her head, "I have wronged you these days. The young master still needs time to wash away the prejudices in his heart. If you can tell me, if there is something wrong, you should be more tolerant."

Qian Xue couldn't answer anything other than nodding.

After Mammy Li finished explaining, Qianxue went to Jing Yu's room and waited until it was completely dark before inviting Jing Yu back.

Jing Yu didn't look relaxed, and when Qian Xue saw this, her heart beat like a drum.

She thought for a long time and then carefully stated the matter to Jing Yu again.

The room was very quiet, so quiet that Qian Xue felt suffocated.

She couldn't help but take a sneak look at Jing Yu's expression, but was jumped by the sound of the teacup falling to the ground.

She looked at Jing Yu in shock, her whole body huddled together.

Jing Yu's face was frighteningly cold, and his eyes were even more angry and contemptuous.

"Who asked you to bring me these words?"

Jing Yu's handsome face looked as terrifying as a Rakshasa at this moment. Qian Xue felt that her heart was about to be clenched. She stopped breathing for a moment, but a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind.

Maybe, this is an opportunity for Nong Qin to show up.

She calmed down and replied with a trembling voice: "This news was told to me by Nong Qin, the eldest lady's current personal maid."

Jing Yu stepped forward and clamped her arm, his eyes so gloomy that he almost watered.

"What I'm asking is, who asked you to bring me these words?" Qianxue was stared at by Jing Yu and panicked again. She didn't know what she said wrong today, so she had to try her best to tell all the facts of what happened.

"This slave came back from the lady's courtyard. She went to report to Grandma Li first. It was Grandma Li who asked this slave to come back and report to you again."

What she said was clearly true, but her voice became softer and quieter involuntarily, suppressed by Jing Yu's momentum.

Her eyes lowered and lowered, and finally she only dared to stare at Jing Yu's Adam's apple.

The room returned to silence again, Jing Yu's hand loosening his grip on her arm, and an imperceptible tremor slipped out of his voice.

"How much do you know about my mother?"

"When this slave was born, the original lady had already passed away." Qianxue mumbled back.

Jing Yu took a step back, put back his intimidating aura, and seemed to have finally regained his senses, "You can go down first."

Qianxue hurriedly retreated, fearing that something might happen again.

She walked out of the room, and the more she thought about it, the more confused she became. The young master's anger probably wasn't directed at her, she was just unlucky enough to suffer a disaster.

So, who does the young master want to get angry at?
Ah Zhi was doing needlework in the house. When she saw her coming back, she stopped her work.

"Madam, are you making things difficult for you again?"

Qian Xue shook her head subconsciously, thought for a moment, hid everything related to Jing Yu, and told Ah Zhi everything else, including the fact that Nong Qin came to ask her for help.

After hearing this, Ah Zhi looked at Qian Xue with an even weirder look.

"You really weren't just joking about leaving the house."

Qian Xue twitched the corner of her mouth, "I've always been stupid, how can I deceive people."

She lowered her gaze and stared at the tea cup on the table, but Ah Zhi suddenly pulled her arm.

Qian Xue looked up at her and met a pair of bright eyes.

"If it comes to playing the piano, it will certainly be helpful to you. Even if it doesn't come to pass, we can discuss other ways first."

Qianxue was confused when she heard this, but after spending these days together, Qianxue could feel that Ah Zhi's knowledge and character were not that of an ordinary maid, so she was willing to listen if Ah Zhi had an idea.

"It's definitely not possible to leave the house with the name of a slave. It will be difficult for you to find a decent job. Therefore, you must get rid of this slave status before leaving the house."

Qianxue has actually considered this matter, but asking the eldest young master to let her go and being freed from slavery are not the same thing. She hasn't thought about it carefully yet.

Ah Zhi saw through her confusion at a glance and said with a smile: "According to the eldest young master's temperament, it is definitely not appropriate to stay in a daze."

Qianxue nodded. On this matter, she definitely gained true knowledge through practice...

"You should make good use of your status as the eldest young master and a woman, and enjoy the gossip. Didn't your good sisters teach you some tricks to please men, so you first want some real estate shop to your name, and the slaves are You can’t have these.”

Ah Zhi gave Qian Xue a meaningful look.

"In order to buy the property in the shop under your name, the young master must find a way to help you become a good citizen. He is a member of the government and has more connections than an ordinary person like you. The property and shop you want to come to, even if the young master dislikes it in the future If I have you, that will be your support. It is better than starting from scratch and setting up a street stall."

Qianxue forgot to blink after hearing this. Could it still be done like this?
She closed her surprised mouth and asked somewhat calmly: "The young master has been a favor to me. Isn't it okay for me to plot against him like this?"

Ah Zhi snorted coldly after hearing this, "I didn't expect that in the cannibal Jing Mansion, there would be someone stupid enough to worry about the master. What leaked from his fingers is enough to make your family rich. After living for several years, you still worry about him!"
