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

Shen Yun'er planned to cook something for the second young master, and she even asked several maids working in the kitchen about the process of making the spicy braised beef that Shen Qinghe had made last time.

Shen Yun'er remembered the method, ingredients, and seasonings perfectly.

She never imagined the kitchen would catch fire.

Shen Yun'er was ruthlessly kicked out by Li Mama. The ash on her face and her disheveled appearance made her feel angry and confused.

Looking up, she saw Shen Qinghe standing not far away.

In an instant, Shen Yun'er was filled with rage. She snapped at Li Mama behind her, "How would I know why the kitchen caught fire? Who knows if one of you tripped me up? Besides, this isn't the first time I've been in the kitchen. If there's a problem, it's you, not me!"

How could Shen Yun'er be happy when she was exposed in public for imitating Shen Qinghe, and Shen Qinghe even witnessed it?

At this moment, his attitude towards the people in the kitchen could be described as fierce and domineering.

Li's mother and the others were busy fetching water to put out the fire, and they didn't have time to pay attention to Shen Yun'er, so they let Shen Yun'er go.

Shen Yun'er stopped the servant who was about to carry the bucket of water into the kitchen. She scooped up a handful of water from the bucket with both hands, washed her face clean, and then dried it with a handkerchief before swaying her waist and straightening her back as she walked up to Shen Qinghe.

Shen Yun'er believed that since she had been reborn, she would never make the same mistakes again. She would never repeat the same mistakes she made last time.

I couldn't do it just now, there must be something wrong with it. Maybe that lowly servant Lu Huai'an has some secret method that no one knows about.

Shen Yun'er's eyes darted around, having already forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart. Her eyes were red from the smoke rising from the kitchen, which made it convenient for her to feign pitifulness.

"elder sister…"

Shen Yun'er reached out and hugged Shen Qinghe's arm, her eyes red and brimming with tears. "Sister, you've seen it all. I'm in a really tough situation in the Second Young Master's courtyard. I wanted to win his favor, so I resorted to this desperate measure—trying to make some food. But who knew I'd be so stupid and lack any talent? Not only can I not make the same food as you, sister, but this year you haven't even mastered seven-tenths of it, and you almost burned the kitchen down! Please, sister, teach me!"

As Shen Yun'er spoke, she clutched a handkerchief in her hand, pretending to wipe away non-existent tears from the corner of her eye.

From a distance, he looked very aggrieved.

Shen Qinghe frowned as well, and without any mercy, pried Shen Yun'er's hand off her wrist:

"As you can see, it took me more than half a month to serve you in bed. How could I possibly have the energy to help you? You chose this path yourself, and I'm sure you were fully prepared from the beginning. You don't need my help. From now on, we sisters will go our separate ways and suffer our own hardships. I can't compare to you, you're destined to be the wife of the Grand Secretary!"

After saying this, Shen Qinghe laughed inwardly and left without showing any mercy.

With Shen Yun'er's pig brain, she actually wants to be the Prime Minister's wife??

That's just wishful thinking.

Shen Qinghe went to the kitchen to help Li's mother and the others tidy up.

Shen Yun'er was left standing there, clenching her handkerchief in anger, staring at Shen Qinghe's departing figure, her teeth itching with hatred.

Shen Qinghe, that wretched maid, is not only ruthless but also selfish!

She won't even share a single cooking recipe! And she's Shen Qinghe's own sister!!

Blood ties are not even as valuable as a cooking recipe!

Fine, since Shen Qinghe, the older sister, is so heartless, then don't blame Shen Yun'er, the younger sister, for being so disloyal.

in the garden.

Lu Huai'an sat listlessly on the artificial hill, watching the fish being fed in the small pond in front of him, occasionally throwing fish food from his bowl into the pond.

The servant Zhou Lin couldn't help but remind him, "Second Young Master, the Old Madam instructed that today is the first day of the seventh month. According to the rules, you must go to the Madam's for a meal."

"Tsk, I say, you servant, are you the master's servant or the grandmother's servant?"

Lu Huai'an said irritably, "I said I'm not going, and that's final. That Li Shi is like an old nanny all day long, always lecturing people. Besides, I can't stand the food she makes in her little kitchen. Let her eat by herself!"

"But the old lady said..."

Zhou Lin hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Shut up, don't make a sound."

Lu Huai'an heard footsteps, which sounded soft and light, unlike those of a man. He looked around and, sure enough, saw the concubine he had favored a few days ago walking towards Ronggui Hall with red eyes.

Upon seeing this, Lu Huai'an's eyes lit up immediately. He lightly jumped and landed in front of Shen Yun'er in no time: "My dear Yun'er, why are you crying like this after only a few days? Who bullied my Yun'er?"

"Young...Young Master?"

Shen Yun'er's surprised and nervous expression was perfectly acted. She had already inquired and learned that the Second Young Master was playing in the garden before she came.

"It's alright, I... no one is bullying me."

Upon hearing this, Lu Huai'an immediately understood that someone must have bullied her: "Good Yun'er, tell me, did someone in the courtyard bully you? I will get justice for you."

"No, young master, don't worry. No one is bullying Yun'er. It's just that my sister and I had a little argument."

Shen Yun'er raised her eyes shyly, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Yun'er, I heard that Young Master has not had a good appetite these past few days, so I wanted to make something to whet his appetite. But Yun'er's cooking skills are really lacking. Not only did I not make anything decent, but I also troubled Li Mama and the others in the kitchen to help. When my sister saw this, she scolded Yun'er, saying, 'If you don't have the skills, don't take on the job.' She told me not to imitate her, not to try to copy her, and to keep our distance."

"Your sister?" Lu Huai'an frowned.

Zhou Lin, who was standing next to him, immediately explained, "Second Young Master, she is the young Marquis's concubine, Miss Qinghe."

"So it was someone from my brother's courtyard."

Lu Huai'an understood, and under Shen Yun'er's expectant gaze, said, "What your sister said isn't wrong. You really aren't suited for the kitchen. Although her tone was a bit harsh, it's the truth."

Shen Yun'er: ? ? !

She stood there dumbfounded, her brows furrowed. She never expected that Lu Huai'an would speak up for Shen Qinghe.

Shen Yun'er's tears welled up instantly: "Young Master... Young Master is disgusted with me. It's because my cooking wasn't good. If it were my sister standing in front of you now, would you not be so disgusted?"

"She's someone my brother takes in. Whether he likes her or not, that's his decision. What does it have to do with me?" Lu Huai'an looked at her, puzzled.

"Besides, she is still your sister. They say an elder sister is like a mother, and you didn't mean any harm by saying those words."

"Yes."

This syllable was almost squeezed out from between Shen Yun'er's teeth; she gritted her teeth and tried her best to control her anger.

Having been reborn, Lu Huai'an actually spoke up for Shen Qinghe?!

No, it must be because this is only the beginning, it must be because Lu Huai'an hasn't realized it yet.

Once he realizes his mistake, he will see how good she is.

Speaking of awakening, there is one thing that must be done.

She remembered that in her previous life, Shen Qinghe made the blood sutra and embroidered portrait for the Thousand Buddha Festival, which helped Lu Huai'an and earned her his first gentle treatment.

Shen Yun'er was determined to do even better than Shen Qinghe in her previous life!

On the other end.

Shen Qinghe had just finished cleaning the kitchen for Li's mother and the others when she suddenly saw Lin Feng rushing over.

Lin Feng stopped when he saw Shen Qinghe: "Miss Qinghe, it's good that you're alright. The young marquis heard that something happened in the kitchen, but he couldn't get away from the military camp, so he specially sent his subordinates to check on things and deliver some supplies."

As he spoke, Lin Feng took out several bottles and jars from his pocket and gave them to her: "These are burn ointments, bruise ointments, and scar removal products. I hope you'll find them useful."

Before Shen Qinghe could react, Lin Feng shoved her into his arms. "Master also said that you should make something sweet tonight, and he'll eat it."

Lin Feng left immediately after speaking, not giving Shen Qinghe a chance to speak at all.

Shen Qinghe was completely baffled. Why did she need these things?
