Queen's Development

Chapter 293 Unpredictable People
Yuzhi knew her own mother's personality best, and because she knew that, she specially sent people to guard the old house in Wanzhou, and let them watch her parents, fat chickens, ducks and fresh fish. They were dressed in silk and satin, and they were ordered by maids and servants, but they were not allowed to leave Wanzhou, lest they go to Beijing to do bad things or be used by others.

Who knew that her elder brother Bai Yuming would go back anyway.

Yuzhi knew that although Bai Yuming was shrewd and calm, he was very filial to his parents. He was afraid that if his parents said it, he would obediently invite them to the capital
Thinking of this, Yuzhi already had some calculations in her heart, but she didn't show it on the surface, she still chatted with Mrs. Jiang San and Jiang Fang's mother and daughter with a smile.

Looking at Jiang Fang's swollen belly, Yu Zhi was still a little worried, so she took the initiative to say: "I'm afraid my sister-in-law is going to give birth soon, why don't you let the third lady go and accompany my sister-in-law!"

Mrs. Jiang San was overjoyed when she heard the words, and agreed with a smile.

She had wanted to go to the Bai Mansion to be with her daughter a long time ago, and she was just waiting for the Bai family to speak up. Now that Bai Liangdi took the initiative to speak up, it was naturally a good thing.

Yu Zhi thought for a while, and then said: "In those few days, do you want to let Doctor Jin go over and take care of you?"

Hearing that Mrs. Jiang San and Jiang Fang both laughed—the golden female doctor is famous all over the world. It is great to have the golden female doctor to take care of her during childbirth!
It snowed in the afternoon.

The snowflakes were very small at first, and fell in fine pieces, falling on the ground like fine salt.

The snow fell more and more, and in the evening, the whole prince's mansion became a world of snow.

Ah Yin was always active, so naturally she didn't want to stay in the house, so she took Shen Xiu, Wan'er and Ting Lan to play in the snow in the courtyard.

Ye Ling, Ye Bi, Nanny Shen and Nanny Dong were all watching.

Yu Zhi helped Han Lin out and slowly walked out, lying on the railing and watching, seeing A Yin and the others having a great time, she couldn't help but also laughed.

Ah Yin is Lin Jia's eldest son, and the burden on his shoulders will become heavier and heavier in the future, and the time to play happily is only a few years away!
At this time, several people in black cloaks came over from the snow curtain. The first person was tall and calm, and it was Lin Jia.

Yuzhi greeted her with a smile: "Ajia!"

Lin Jia was overjoyed when she saw Yuzhi, and immediately raised her hand to remove the snow-covered hood, and looked at Yuzhi with sparkling eyes.

Yu Zhi was about to speak, when she saw the person behind Lin Jia poking her head out, taking off the hood, revealing a fair and handsome face, with black cat eyes full of smiles: "Sister-in-law!"

It turned out to be Yeluxiao.

Yu Zhi was stunned—although Ye Luxiao is Lin Jia's foster brother, everyone knows that this is really an expedient measure for each other, and it can't change the fact that Ye Luxiao is a proton, so Ye Luxiao never called Lin Jia" "Big brother", of course she wouldn't call her "sister-in-law".

Seeing the surprise on the face of this beautiful and gentle young woman in front of him, Ye Luxiao seemed to realize something, the bright smile on his face stagnated, showing a trace of grievance: "Can't I be called sister-in-law? Then I'll still be called Liang Di Bar!"

Yuzhi looked at Lin Jia.

Lin Jia blinked and said with a smile: "Ah Xiao is my brother-in-law, let's call him 'sister-in-law' from now on!"

Hearing this, Yeluxiao's smile became even brighter, her cat eyes narrowed, and a pair of dimples appeared and disappeared on her cheeks: "Yeah!"

At this moment, Ah Yin was hit by Shen Xiu's snowball, and she yelled "Ah".

Yeluxiao's eyes lit up: "Brother, sister-in-law, I'll go play with Ah Yin!"

Lin Jia smiled and nodded: "Go!"

Yeluxiao cheered, took off his cloak and threw it to Li Hanxing who had been following him, and then jumped out.

His posture was extremely dexterous and vigorous, when Ayin Shenxiu and the others saw him, they cheered immediately.

Yeluxiao soon became the leader of the group of children: "Come on, let's make a snowman!"

Lin Jia glanced at Ah Lan.

A Lan understood, nodded, walked towards the courtyard, stood there with a smile and watched Ye Luxiao accompany the children to build a snowman.

Back in the Ming Room, Yu Zhi took the cloak that Lin Jia had untied, handed it to Chun Yu, and said, "You guys retreat first!"

After she and Lin Jia were left alone in the room, Yuzhi said softly, "Ajia, this Yeluxiao doesn't seem to be Yeluxiao."

Lin Jia understood the meaning of Yuzhi's words as soon as she heard it, and said in a low voice, "I'll let someone take another look."

He also suspected that there was something wrong with this Yeluxiao. Although there seemed to be no difference from the outside, the previous Yeluxiao had always been dull and not talkative, and he was very preoccupied. How could he suddenly become so lively?
Yuzhi nodded: "Let Ah Cheng and Li Hanxing observe carefully to see if there are any clues!"

Lin Jia let out a "hmm", wrapped her arms around Yuzhi's waist, and hugged Yuzhi tightly.

No matter how exhausted he is, as long as he can hold Yuzhi, he can immediately regain his vitality.

Yuzhi knew that Lin Jia was cold and reserved in front of people, but she was actually very clingy, so she immediately laughed and said, "I've been pregnant for more than four months now, and in another five months, Ah Meng will be born, when the time comes It's better to let the golden female doctor be by my side!"

Lin Jia thought carefully, and immediately said, "Do you still want to use the golden female doctor?"

Yuzhi gave a "hmm" and said, "She has always been diligent and loyal."

Lin Jia thought for a while, and said: "In this case, I will give female doctor Jin a favor, and I will let someone arrange to confer Jin Xiuzhu as his wife and record it in the jade certificate, so that she can continue to serve her father and give birth to a son and a half in the future." , and then promoted to side concubine!"

When Yuzhi heard this, she immediately laughed, and said: "This kind of favor can be regarded as a big one, so we might as well be a little bigger, and let Jin Xiuzhu's restraint be released!"

Lin Jia hugged Yuzhi, sniffed the smell of Yuzhi, and thought: For Yuzhi, this is the only way to go
After dinner, Lin Jia took Yeluxiao Maoxue and left - there are people waiting to see him in the study outside!
After sending off the envoy of the Ganzhou Jiedu Envoy, Lin Jia returned to the book case and sat down.

He was a little tired, and slowly leaned back on the back of the chair, raised his hands and rubbed his temples.

Li Rui walked in with a young man, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, Bai Ling is back!"

The young man named Bai Ling immediately cupped his hands and saluted: "Yu Yiwei Bai Ling has seen Your Highness!"

Lin Jia looked over and saw that Bai Ling had slender eyes and was quite delicate, so he said, "How's the investigation going?"

Bai Ling hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the three maids beside Bai Liangdi, Yiyun, Chunyu and Cherry, have all found their destiny!"

Lin Jia said "Mm", and said, "Li Rui, let Bai Ling meet those three maids tomorrow!"

The people around Yuzhi were all arranged by him. Only Yiyun, Chunyu and cherries were bought by Yuzhi in the countryside of Qingzhou. Lin Jia was a little worried, so she arranged for Bai Ling of Yuyiwei to do something else , in case these people are ungrateful to the Lord.

The next night, Cherry was listening to Songyuan's waiters, but was called out by the little maid Bohe: "Sister Cherry, Housekeeper Li wants to see you!"

When they arrived at Li Rui's yard, Cherry didn't see Li Rui, but saw a good-looking man with slender eyes.

The man was very young, about 20 years old. He sat in an armchair with his legs crossed and looked at Cherry with a smile, and his voice seemed to carry a smile: "Your surname is Liang, and your baby name is Zhiyan. You are 15 years old this year. Is your family a In the grain business, I opened a small grain store. My family is well-off and my life is going well. It’s just that a flood flooded the warehouse of your grain store. Your family went bankrupt and owed 50 taels of silver to the town’s official Hu. Mr. Hu wanted your family to pay off the debts, and your brother Liang Zhiwen wanted to go to school, but your family had no money, so they had to sell you—am I right?"

Seeing that Cherry's eyes were full of panic, the young man's smile deepened, and his slender eyes looked at Cherry up and down.

This maid named Cherry had a small snow-white round face, round and big eyes, a small cherry mouth, and a small figure. She was a round and exquisite little beauty.

Such a little beauty is serving by Di Liang's side, so she naturally has to be submissive so that she doesn't dare to have the slightest disagreement.

Bai Ling picked up the white porcelain teacup placed on the rosewood table, took a sip, and said, "Your brother Liang Zhiwen is married, and your new sister-in-law was sent by me, and she is pregnant now. You must have received the news!"

While talking, his slender eyes kept looking at the cherry. Although he was smiling, it was like a poisonous snake's letter, which made people chill.

Cherry trembled all over, and suddenly softened.

Bai Ling didn't expect Cherry to be so timid, and couldn't help being stunned.

With quick eyes and quick hands, he immediately took the cherry over.

Cherry felt the hand holding her waist, her heart beat violently, she looked over immediately, and found that there was still a layer of fine hair covering Bai Ling's delicate skin in the light, a hanging heart immediately fell back— — This Bai Ling is probably less than 20 years old!

After Bai Ling let go of his hand, Cherry took a deep breath and looked at Bai Ling: "Don't worry, I know that my parents and family are in your hands, and I will not do anything that is not good for His Highness or Bai Liangdi."

Seeing how clever the cherry was, Bai Ling laughed immediately: "Miss Cherry is so smart!"

Cherry came out of the room and saw Mint waiting for her on the porch outside, she couldn't tell what it was like, she was afraid, but also a little excited: If I serve her with all my heart like Han Lin, will I be able to marry her like Han Lin? For the prince's subordinates?

Yiyun's face was pale, and she was sitting in a daze in her room, when she suddenly heard a movement from the next door, knowing that Cherry had returned, she hurriedly got up and went out.

Seeing that the door of the next room was ajar, Yi Yun immediately opened the door, and saw the cherry sitting on the chair at a glance.

Seeing Cherry sitting there blankly, with the snow falling on her hair and shoulders not brushed off, Yiyun knew that Cherry should have seen that little boy named Bai Ling, but she still deliberately asked: "Cherry, why are you Is it? Look at the lost soul?"

Cherry shivered, her lips trembled, and she said, "It's nothing!"

She thought of the young man with slender eyes and strangely good-looking smile with his thin lips pursed, and his face suddenly became hot.

Yiyun didn't ask anything, so she had to go back.

That insidious man named Bai Ling actually wanted to threaten her with her parents and three younger brothers, it's really abominable!

Her parents favored sons over daughters, they beat and scolded her, and her three younger brothers were not good things, so would she care about these so-called family members?

It would be nice to be able to kill them!
This day, Yuzhi listened to Li Rui's report on the New Year's events, and said slowly: "You can decide these matters in the house, you don't have to come back and forth with me for everything!"

Li Rui took a look at Yuzhi, lowered his eyes and said, "Isn't Liangdi afraid that his subordinates will deceive others and take bribes?"

As Lin Jia's status is getting higher and higher, and the power in her hands is getting bigger and bigger, Li Rui is getting more and more busy, and the responsibilities on her shoulders are getting heavier and heavier. It is becoming more and more difficult to come to see Yuzhi once - he It's been too busy!

But no matter what, he will not let go of the burden of Yuzhi's housekeeper, this is the reason why he can often come to see Yuzhi.
Yu Zhi looked at Li Rui and smiled: "If you are short of money, you can do whatever you want! As long as you don't leave!"

She didn't care whether Li Rui was corrupt at all.

No need to suspect, no doubt about employers, to her, Li Rui has long been like a family member.

Li Rui looked at Yuzhi's gentle and considerate eyes, his heart felt sore, and his smile was a little sad: "Don't worry, I won't leave!"

Yu Zhi laughed and told Chun Yu, "Take out all the new clothes for Li Rui!"

It's time for the new year, and when she asked someone to prepare new clothes for Lin Jia, she also prepared them for Li Rui.

Li Rui took the burden from Chun Yu, his eyes were a little moist, he lowered his eyelids, and retreated.

Yuzhi watched Li Rui's figure disappear behind the brocade curtain, and did not speak for a long while.

Chun Yu was waiting on the side, and said in a low voice: "Liangdi, just now Steward Li seemed... seemed to be crying"

Yuzhi felt sad for a while, and said softly after a while: "If there is such a day, I will definitely abolish the system of using eunuchs in the palace."

If Li Rui hadn't been an eunuch, he would have married and had children, a warm family and ordinary happiness, instead of being alone like he is now.
Chun Yu stood there, savoring Yuzhi's words in his heart, and after a while he said: "Liangdi, last night Bai Ling under Steward Li called the slaves away."

Seeing Yu Zhi's surprised expression, Chun Yu hastily said: "Liangdi, Bai Ling is to explain to the servant, to let the servant be loyal to the master, don't have any evil intentions! Please rest assured, Liangdi, the servant has long made up his mind to serve the master like Sister Hanlin , there will be a happy ending in the future!"

After thinking about it for a while, Yuzhi knew what was going on, and couldn't help smiling: "Don't worry, when the time comes, Li Rui's unmarried people can be chosen by you, as long as the person you like is willing!"

Chun Yu immediately laughed, and bowed her knees happily: "Thank you Liang Di! This servant is beautiful and kind-hearted. I think the person whom this servant likes will also like this servant!"

Seeing Chun Yu so confident, Yuzhi also smiled.

She likes confident girls.

In a blink of an eye, it is the Lantern Festival on the 15th of the first lunar month.

Yuzhi distributed silver rewards to all the waiters in the mansion, and even in Tingsong Courtyard, only Han Lin, Chun Yu, Ye Ling and Ye Bi were left to serve.

Yiyun had a rest, a little bored, and was counting the money he had saved, when a rough envoy came over and sent a message: "Miss Yiyun, your parents are here to see you, they are waiting at the small corner gate!"
