Chapter 35 Brothers

The remaining five maids knelt in a row one after another, all wearing light pink skirts. They were all steady and dignified, and their faces looked clean and elegant. They were all excellent.

"My maid, Jiao Yue, has met the second young lady."

"Your servant He Yue has met the second young lady."

"Your servant Qingyue has met the second young lady."

"My maid met the second young lady in March."

"My maid Dongyue has met the second young lady."

Song Jinyue looked at them one by one and was extremely satisfied. When Mrs. Xie saw her like this, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Song Jinyue finally chose Nanny Yuan, Jiao Yue and San Yue.

"Yue'er, why don't you take all of these back." Ms. Xie always felt that the manpower provided was not enough, so she wanted her to take them all back to the Duke's Mansion.

Song Jinyue had other plans in mind. If he brought all these people back, he might not know how the capital would discuss them. But if he brought only three or five of them, there would be nothing to discuss.

"Auntie, these are enough. If you are not enough in the future, how about I shamelessly ask for more?"

Mrs. Xie then gave up, smiled and nodded her fair forehead, then turned to look at the few people her niece had picked out just now, and ordered: "If you follow Miss Cousin in the future, you will be Cousin's people, and you will be in the same university."

The General’s Mansion has nothing to do with it anymore.”

Several people knelt on the ground respectfully, bowed their heads and said "yes".

"The other two boys are waiting in the concierge. I'll ask Nanny Yuan to accompany you to the concierge later." Ms. Xie said a few more words.

Song Jinyue listened one by one.

Finally, Mrs. Xie glanced at Jiao Yue and San Yue again, and then slowly said: "I will change the confinement period in the future, because the cousin's maiden name is different."

The two maids knelt on the ground neatly, kowtowed, and said slowly: "Please give me your name, Miss Second."

Song Jinyue also knew these rules.

He lowered his eyelids and pondered for a moment, then slowly raised his head and said, "Let's change the word "month" to "Mingzi".

The moon represents light, and brightness represents the heart.

She hoped that these two people would be by her side in the future, so that they could have a clear ear and a clear mind, and act thoughtfully.

"My maid has thanked the second lady."

"..."

The two maids thanked them again,

Mrs. Xie was extremely satisfied, so she stood up and left, taking back the remaining women and maids who were not chosen by her. When she reached the door of the room, she paused and warned, "Yue'er will go to the old lady's courtyard for dinner later.

"

Song Jinyue nodded slightly, bowed, and then watched her aunt leave Cuizhuxuan.

"Everyone, get up."

Grandma Yuan, Jiao Ming and San Ming slowly stood up.

Qiu Yun stood behind the young lady, holding in her hand the three persons' deeds of fidelity left by Xie just now.

"Mama Yuan, please accompany me to the concierge first. Jiao Ming and San Ming will stay behind first." After Song Jinyue gave the instructions, he led Aunt Yuan and Qiu Yun to the concierge.

It's still daylight now, and the women and maids in Zhang's house have already begun to busy themselves with dinner.

When the group of people arrived at the concierge, they saw two cleanly dressed young men wearing black cloth jackets sitting on the porch.

The two young men saw Miss Song's figure coming towards them from a distance, and knowing that they were looking for them, they quickly stood up and stood upright.

When they came closer, the two of them bowed and saluted and called out "Second Miss".

Song Jinyue asked their names again, and the one named Xiang Wu was Bai Jing. Although she looked a bit frail, she couldn't hide her aura of martial arts.

The man named Xiang Shu is a bit more lively, with a pair of bright eyes. Although there is no expression on his face, his eyes seem to be smiling, which makes people feel warm just by looking at them.

The two are biological brothers. They lost their father and mother when they were young. They made a living by begging when they were young. Later, they were brought back to the mansion by the general and became the guards of the mansion.

Madam found the two brothers today and said that she had something to ask for. How could the two brothers refuse? She bluntly said that she had been grateful for the kindness of the General's Mansion over the years and had nothing to repay.

The second young lady of the Duke of Song's residence was the only descendant of the late second aunt. Now that she has returned to the capital, there is no one elderly person in the residence of the Duke of Song. So she hopes that the two of them can follow the second young lady of Song back.

To protect her well.

The two brothers responded immediately.

Because they know that the general has always cherished this niece, and the general has only one biological niece.

"Second Miss, this is a contract of self-denial for the two of us brothers. Please don't dislike us two brothers for being stupid and stupid." Xiang Wu held the self-declaration contract in his hand and presented it to Song Jinyue.

Grandma Yuan stepped forward and took the deed of betrayal from Xiang Wu, and then handed it over to Song Jinyue.

Song Jinyue lowered her eyes and handed the contract to Grandma Yuan, saying: "From now on, these will be handed over to Grandma for safekeeping."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiu Yun hurriedly handed over the two maids she had collected earlier, together with the contract of sale from Aunt Yuan, without any slackness on her face.

"The old slave accepted it shamelessly."

Song Jinyue nodded, then looked at the Xiang Wu Xiangshu brothers and said, "I have something here that I would like to trouble you to handle."

The two brothers listened respectfully and showed no signs of impatience.

"Go to Jiangnan for me and pick up someone to come to the capital. We will set off today. The sooner the better!"

Song Jinyue ordered Aunt Yuan to go to her aunt to ask for a carriage for the Xiang brothers. She went back to Cuizhuxuan to pick up the letter she had written earlier. Qiu Yun held a black lacquer box in her hand.

What was stored inside was the white jade Guanyin bottle that Miss Shen had begged for.

When handing the things to the two Xiang brothers, Song Jinyue looked solemn and said, "I won't hide it from you either. Inside this black box is a bottle of high-quality white jade Guanyin, which is marketable and priceless. If you take it and run away, I will too."

I don’t blame you…”

In front of money, it is inevitable that people will have distracting thoughts.

Firstly, she did not have the right manpower to handle this matter. Secondly, she took this opportunity to test whether the two Xiang brothers could be used by her.

She did not need to hide these words, she wanted to let them know that she had temptations in mind.

Also let them know that she has never hidden anything from them.

The two Xiang brothers hurriedly knelt on the ground, but their expressions showed no distracting thoughts. They only replied respectfully: "For the two young brothers to be respected by the second lady, it is already the glory of the family. We must not dare to have any other intentions!"

This is a sign of loyalty.

Song Jinyue then asked the two Xiang brothers to stand up, and ordered Qiu Yun to take the one hundred taels of silver that she had just asked for from Shen yesterday and hand them over to them.

Xiang Wu refused to accept the offer.

Song Jinyue showed anger and stubbornness on her face, and said: "Bring this money, you don't have to sleep in the open, and do things for me. I don't mean to make you suffer. If you suffer, won't others laugh at me?"

What he said made it difficult for Xiang Wu to refuse.

Then he took the one hundred taels of silver from Qiu Yun's hand and kowtowed to Xiang Shu three times in a row.

The two brothers then rode straight to the south of the Yangtze River.

Grandma Yuan didn't know why the second lady asked the Xiang brothers to go to Jiangnan.

After returning to Cuizhuxuan, Qiu Yun closed the door, and Grandma Yuan helped the second young lady sit down.

"Aunt Yuan, what are you going to say to your aunt and grandmother about the matters I have given to the Xiang brothers today?"

The smile on Song Jinyue's lips was gentle and shallow, but there was a hint of temptation in it.
