The Marquis's line has ended? The pregnant maid is pregnant again!

Lu Jihan choked, finally remembering what he had said earlier, and his expression became somewhat unnatural.

That's the problem.

He said she wasn't allowed to get close as a warning, but he didn't expect Shen Qinghe to be so obedient.

Lu Jihan clenched his fist and coughed lightly, covering his mouth, his tone strange: "You seem to have taken what I said to heart."

Shen Qinghe seemed completely oblivious to anything amiss, maintaining her original distance as she lightly replied, "My duty is to serve the young master well in his daily life, and of course I must remember every word he says."

She lowered her eyes slightly, listened to his words without getting closer, and always kept her distance, behaving herself properly, unlike the wives and concubines who would seize any opportunity to get close.

Looking at the girl's gentle and docile appearance, Lu Jihan's anger subsided considerably.

Lu Jihan's tone softened considerably: "I'm hungry, let's go make something to eat."

"Alright, I'll go right away."

Upon hearing his order, Shen Qinghe beamed with joy, curtsied, and ran away.

Lu Jihan frowned slightly as he looked at her lithe and graceful figure. Why was she running like a rabbit?

Is he scary?

Lu Jihan gently touched his cheek, then quickly realized what he was doing.

It must be because he was angered by the Qin family.

Distracted, he didn't even notice Shen Qinghe peeking out the window.

The tall shadow cast by the lamplight covered a large area of ​​the window paper.

Shen Qinghe secretly watched the movements inside and saw the man touch his cheek unusually, and she couldn't help but smile.

snort!

He himself said not to let her get close, but it wasn't that she was deliberately avoiding him.

Who told him to be so rule-abiding?

Shen Qinghe left the bedroom and went to the kitchen in a great mood.

Just as Li's mother was about to close the kitchen door and go back to rest, she turned her head and spotted a slender figure. Thinking it was Shen Yun'er returning, she couldn't suppress her annoyance.

Upon closer inspection, she realized it was Shen Qinghe. The annoyance on Li's mother's face vanished, replaced by a whirlwind of emotions.

Throughout the day, all the maids and servants in the bamboo garden were talking about how Shen Qinghe had suddenly become someone in Lu Jihan's room.

They all said that no matter what, Shen Qinghe was just a concubine, and they didn't think highly of her.

Madam Li, however, thought differently. Even if it was a concubine, it was with the young marquis's own consent. Which of these wives and concubines in the courtyard wasn't forced in by the old lady and the marquis's wife?

Li's mother sensed that Shen Qinghe was different, and determined not to antagonize her, she smiled and said:

"Qinghe, you're here! What brings you here so late at night?"

Shen Qinghe grew up in the old lady's courtyard since she was a child. She knew most of the maids and servants in the Marquis's mansion and they would not make things difficult for her easily. However, Li Mama had a fiery temper and little patience. She rarely smiled at the maids and servants.

At this moment, it's probably because she's become one of the young marquis's servants.

Shen Qinghe knew exactly what was going on, and tried her best to be kind to others, so she asked with a smile, "Aunt Li, may I borrow the kitchen for a moment? I'll clean it up for you when I'm done."

"Hey, why do they all like to come so late at night? That's really strange."

Mother Li said with a puzzled look, then quickly replied, "Okay, okay, it will work for you, young lady."

Do they all like coming to the kitchen at night? Has anyone else been here? Suppressing her doubts, Shen Qinghe entered the kitchen, selected the ingredients she wanted, and focused on preparing the food.

After finishing preparing the food, Shen Qinghe carefully put everything into the food box: "Aunt Li, I've finished eating. This bowl was specially saved for you."

"Girl, this..." Li's mother's eyes widened as she looked at the meat swallow soup noodles that had been pushed in front of her, never expecting that she would get a bowl.

"You've waited so long, it's still hot, please eat it while it's hot!"

Shen Qinghe watched as Li's mother picked up her chopsticks and asked calmly, "I noticed the stove was still warm when I came in. Had anyone used it before me?"

"Yes, Miss Yun'er just left, saying she wanted to make some food for the Second Young Master."

Madam Li, who had been answering with a smile, couldn't help but become impatient when Shen Yun'er was mentioned: "You don't know, Miss Yun'er is so impulsive! First, she made the maids wash and chop vegetables for her, then she made this old woman tend the fire and the servants fetch water for her. It's not that this old woman looks down on her, it's just that she's never been in the kitchen before. It took her an hour or two to barely manage to make a decent meal, and she almost started a fire in the kitchen!"

"Mother has a long tenure in the Marquis's mansion. Although she is a concubine, she shouldn't be able to boss you around. Why didn't you refuse her?"

Shen Qinghe asked.

"Alas, this old woman wants to too. But Miss Yun'er said that it's food made for the Second Young Master, how dare we servants object?"

Mother Li sighed. Shen Yun'er, who was also a concubine, had come over and made a fuss for most of the night. She finally managed to get some food, but she didn't even leave her a bite.

At this moment, Shen Qinghe not only quickly prepared the food, but also spontaneously saved a bowl for her, making the contrast immediately apparent.

Li's mother wasn't stupid; she knew perfectly well who to treat better.

"Okay, then I won't disturb Mom's rest any longer. I'll be going now."

Shen Qinghe carried the food box back, thinking that Shen Yun'er was determined to steal her cooking skills, to imitate her poorly, and to take away everything she had in her previous life.

Fine, then let Shen Yun'er suffer a bloody head injury herself!

-

Ronggui Hall.

Lu Huai'an stood up abruptly, and immediately saw Shen Yun'er. His voice was languid: "Good Yun'er, where have you been?"

Just as she finished speaking, she saw a maid following behind Shen Yun'er, carrying a food box.

Upon seeing that Lu Huai'an was awake, Shen Yun'er quickly swayed her hips and walked over, "Young Master is awake?"

Lu Huai'an was quite satisfied with her obsequious manner.

He had always thought that the maids around his grandmother were all old-fashioned, rigid, and boring, and that he had no interest in them at all.

Until he tasted Shen Yun'er's flavor the night before, Lu Huai'an was completely aroused.

His grandmother had managed to raise a maid like Shen Yun'er, who understood men's minds so well and was so alluring and seductive. She was just as good as the girls at Hongxiuzhao, and he had truly enjoyed the pleasures of love with her.

"Alright, you may leave!" Lu Huai'an waved his hand to dismiss the maid.

Immediately afterwards, he impatiently bit Shen Yun'er's red lips hard.

This prompted Shen Yun'er to gently push against his chest: "Young Master~"

The woman's face flushed with shyness, making her incredibly alluring. Lu Huai'an's gaze fell upon the food box on the table:

"What is that?"

Seeing that he had asked the key question, Shen Yun'er immediately stood up, helping him walk over while explaining:

"Reporting to the Second Young Master, I saw that you were drunk and unconscious, and I was worried that you would have a headache when you woke up. So I went to the kitchen myself and made a bowl of light porridge and two dishes of appetizers, hoping to ease your worries."
