Ruan Yu didn't care what Qing He did next. She just finished what she should say and went back to her room to wait for news about Pearl.

Although it was the first time for Pearl to go out on her own to run an errand, she managed everything beautifully. She came back smoothly before dinner time, and brought good news to Ruan Yu with a happy face.

"My servant didn't dare to go to the main entrance of the Zhenguo Palace to inquire. Instead, I went around to a small corner door on the side of the backyard and asked the gatekeeper for help.

The old woman was a little unhappy at first, but after the slave gave her a little bit of money, she relented and agreed to help the slave deliver a message to the inkstone next to Master Jiu.

The old woman got the money, and she did things very quickly. The inkstone came out without letting the slave wait too long. She personally brought the slave into the house and went to the Lord Jiu.

The slave kowtowed to Master Jiu, and then told Master Jiu what you told me, Miss. Master Jiu asked the slave to come back and tell you, Miss, that tomorrow you will be at the Defu Tea House on East Street. He has booked a private room on the second floor to wait for you.

.”

After hearing Pearl's reply, Ruan Yu also breathed a sigh of relief. She was in a good mood and said to Pearl: "Okay, you did a good job!

You go down and rest first so that you can accompany me out of the house tomorrow!"

"Yes." After hearing Ruan Yu's instructions, Pearl was extremely happy. She first hurriedly thanked Ruan Yu, then stood up and then, as if she had thought of something, she carefully took out the purse hidden in her chest.

He picked up the remaining bits of silver, held them up with both hands, and carefully brought them to Ruan Yu.

"Girl, this is the money you gave to your slave to take on errands. There is still this money left."

"You should keep it first." Ruan Yu glanced at the pearl, but did not reach out to pick it up. Instead, she continued to instruct her in a gentle tone: "From now on, when you are with me on errands, you will rarely need money."

After listening to Ruan Yu's instructions, Pearl didn't say anything more. She collected the money respectfully and bowed to Ruan Yu before bowing and carefully exiting.

With Ruan Yu's prestige in the yard before, Qinghe and the others seemed to be much more serious and attentive than usual when they served her closely tonight. Especially in their attitude towards her, the change was even greater.

Already.

Even Qing He, who usually has a sense of superiority, finally has a little more humility and caution as a slave.

Ruan Yu had a good rest that night. She got up early the next morning and had a simple breakfast. Then she directly ordered Qing He to prepare the carriage for her departure. She wanted to take Pearl with her to leave the house.

After hearing Ruan Yu's request, Qing He was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously asked: "Girl, where are you going when you leave the house?"

"Do I need your permission before I go anywhere?" Ruan Yu looked at Qing He and asked in a rather unkind tone.

Qing He, who had already suffered a loss yesterday, naturally did not dare to step forward to touch Ruan Yu's troubles. She did not dare to ask any more questions, and after a quick and low response, she went out to prepare herself.

Although Qing He was not at ease in Ruan Yu's courtyard, he was still unambiguous in doing things in this mansion.

By the time Ruan Yu led Pearl all the way out of the Chuihua Gate, the prepared carriage was already waiting for her.

But now, besides the carriage, there is also an uninvited guest waiting here.

"Sister." Lin Wan'er led the girl from the other side of the carriage with a smile and stopped in front of Ruan Yu: "I heard that you are leaving the house now?"

"Qing He told you, right?" Ruan Yu was not surprised at all that Lin Wan'er would appear here. She turned her head and glanced at Qing He who wished she could drop her head to the ground, and then looked back with a half-smile.

Looking at Lin Wan'er: "Madam has left the making of the wedding dress in my hands. Is it strange that I am going out of the house to do this now?"

The smile on Lin Wan'er's face froze for a moment, but she did not give up. Instead, as if she did not see Ruan Yu's rejection and rejection at all, she continued to smile and continued: "Sister, you misunderstood, I am not

I think there's something wrong with you going out to do business.

But, it's really a bit too hasty for you to not even have someone to serve you."

"I brought Pearl, it's enough to have her take care of me!" Ruan Yu glanced at Lin Wan'er and didn't buy her deliberate move to push Qinghe towards her.

"I heard from Qinghe that this Pearl was just a third-class sweeping girl in your yard. She has never learned any rules. How can she know how to serve a good person?

My sister is like this, but Qinghe is not serving you wholeheartedly?

If that's the case, there's no need for me to force myself. I still have..."

Seeing that Lin Wan'er was unwilling to give up and wanted to continue to push people around her, Ruan Yu hurriedly opened her mouth and cut her off without politeness: "No! No need. I don't lack people to take care of me. My sister's person is still you.

Just stay by your side and serve you!"

"It's getting late, so I won't chat with you here, sister. Let's go first!" Ruan Yu glanced at the sky and wanted to interrupt the conversation rudely, bypassing Lin Wan'er and supporting Pearl.

My hands wanted to get on the carriage and leave.

However, Lin Wan'er refused to give up. She followed up and held Ruan Yu's hand, and continued to persuade her earnestly: "Sister, if you go out now, you also represent the face of our Ning'an residence.

Where can you only have such a stupid little girl waiting for you?

My sister knows that Qinghe came here today to report the news that you were going out, which made you a little unhappy. But this is because she is worried about you!

If you really only take such a little girl who knows nothing out of the house, if something goes wrong and the news reaches your mother’s ears, she will be so worried that she can’t sleep!”

"I feel that the girl in my yard should be mine! It doesn't matter whether the servant is dedicated or not, the most important thing is that the person must be loyal!

Just like Qing He, no matter how much she considers me as her master, she should not spread the news about my yard to others!

This is not for my sake, but a betrayal of me!" Ruan Yu broke away from Lin Waner's hold on her wrist, stood on the carriage shaft and looked down at Lin Waner: "Sister, there is no need to intercede for Qinghe here.

I already told her everything I needed to say yesterday, but in just one night, she knowingly did it again! I can't afford to use such a 'smart' girl with big ideas!

I remember that Qinghe was serving in sister’s yard before, but now that sister has mentioned this girl in front of me, I might as well take her back this time!”
