Chapter 39
Mingyue didn't understand why Huo Jiuge changed from his pleasant appearance to what he is now. She only thought that she was promoted too quickly and was jealous of others, so she deliberately said bad things about herself in front of Huo Jiuge. She doubted herself.

Looking at the things that Qin had given her on the ground, although she was reluctant to part with them, she obviously wanted to dispel Huo Jiuge's doubts about herself first.

She explained to her that Mrs. Qin saw her brave the heavy rain to beg her to save her master, and was grateful for her sincerity, so she rewarded herself with these things.

In order to make her believe her words, Mingyue deliberately opened her trousers and exposed her knees to Huo Jiuge.

There is indeed a big bruise on the knee, and it looks like the injury should be serious.

She was in a hurry to inform the Qin family and accidentally fell down while running, but she told him that it was because she was too worried about Huo Jiuge's condition and did not pay attention to the road under her feet.

Huo Jiuge looked at the injury on her leg and said, "It seems that you really thought about me and were too anxious to do this. I misunderstood you."

"Miss, where are you? It's my blessing to be able to serve you."

"Now that you understand this problem, you should know that your current master is me. No matter whose maid you were before, everything should be about me now!" Of course Huo Jiuge will not let it go just because of this little trick. She, but considering that she still has uses, I haven’t delved into it for the time being.

"My servant didn't think carefully this time. From now on, I will put the young lady first!" Mingyue admitted the mistake she had made and promised that she would not make it again.

As she assessed the situation, Huo Jiuge raised his eyebrows and looked at her with interest.

Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Mingyue bravely looked up at Huo Jiuge, and met her eyes. She was so frightened that she immediately lowered her head and muttered: "I'm so reckless, please punish me."

"The punishment will be waived." Huo Jiuge waved his hand to Haitang on the side to invite the doctor from the house, and then continued: "Since you are thinking about me and it is your first offense, I will spare you once. You It’s best to ask a doctor to take a look at the injury on your knee.”

Hearing what Huo Jiuge said, Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief, and finally let go of the stone in her heart, but she didn't show too many emotions on her face. She still looked the same as before, after thanking Huo Jiuge. After Jiuge's kindness, she limped away.

"Miss, did you really believe what she said?" Looking at Mingyue's leaving figure, Dongmei said angrily. She had never been used to seeing such a flattering villain like Mingyue, especially when she was someone close to the Qin family before. After arriving at Hexiangyuan, she took advantage of her young lady's trust and began to act tyrannically here.

Listening to Dongmei's words, Huo Jiuge smiled, then turned around and asked Qiu Chan beside him: "Qiu Chan, do you think what she said is credible?"

Qiu Chan paused and thought about expressing her doubts again and again, "Although her knee injury was indeed caused by a fall while trying to save the young lady, based on my understanding of the Qin family, she is not a generous person, especially since Mingyue is still We, the people of Hexiang Courtyard, already hate the young lady to the core. If Ling didn’t have a plan, how could she reward the maid next to you?"

"Then you mean that Mingyue directed and acted in this play because she was afraid that I would blame her?" Huo Jiuge asked.

Qiu Chan was very thoughtful, and of course she saw Mingyue's trick at a glance. She then explained to Huo Jiuge: "The injuries on her body are real, but her words are false, although she cannot be sure now. Identity, but we have to guard against Mingyue!"

As expected, Qiu Chan understood her thoughts best, and she and Huo Jiuge thought of going together.

Mingyue must be a spy placed by Qin's side deliberately in order to monitor her every move and report anything abnormal to her immediately. However, if Mingyue is driven away, Qin will probably train other people.

In this case, it is better to keep her by his side temporarily, at least under his nose, she will not be able to change the world.

It's just that Dongmei has suffered so much, but she still has to endure Mingyue.In order to complete what the old man ordered as soon as possible and not delay the imperial examination of his son Huo Changqing, the Qin family invited Taoist Wang to the Rongguo Duke's Mansion the next day and said they would perform a ritual ceremony.

In order to exorcise evil spirits, Mr. Huo asked everyone in the Huo family to go to Guangling Hall, and Huo Jiuge also received this invitation.

Just when she asked Qiu Chan and Dongmei to dress herself up, the shadow of the bright moon suddenly appeared at the door. When she was standing at the door hesitating whether to go in, she happened to meet Qiu Chan coming out of it.

"What are you doing here?" Qiu Chan asked as she watched her furtively peeking in at the door.

"I" Mingyue didn't think of how to explain it for a while. Looking at Qiu Chan, she actually became nervous.

Fortunately, Qiu Chan didn't care about her so much. Seeing that she was doing nothing, she asked Mingyue to get her young lady's yellow cotton skirt. She said that the young lady would wear that skirt when she went out and asked her to get it quickly. .

"Yes." Mingyue accepted the order and immediately ran to get the skirt.

Looking at her back, she felt relieved, and Qiu Chan quickly went back to help her young lady dress up.

"Is she gone?" Huo Jiuge picked up a hosta and pointed it on her head in front of the bronze mirror. She looked at the face reflected in the mirror. Even though it had been so long, she was still not used to it. The person in the mirror is yourself.

"I have already asked her to pick up the dress as instructed by the young lady," Qiu Chan replied.

"That's good." Huo Jiuge put down the hairpin. She didn't know why her interest was lacking. Seeing this, Dongmei asked, "Miss, don't you like this hairpin?"

This kind of hosta was specially taken off by the original owner's mother before she left, and then handed to her. Perhaps it was for this reason that when Huo Jiuge saw this now, he thought of the massacre that year.

Hearing them asking themselves this, Huo Jiuge shook his head and said, "I'm just thinking about what will happen later."

"No matter what happens! Are we still afraid of them now? At worst, the soldiers will come and cover up the water and the earth!" Dongmei said with confidence. In the past few days with Huo Jiuge, she has become much bolder.

She knows her young lady's aspirations and ambitions, so she must grow up quickly to become her helper on the road to revenge.

"Dongmei is right, no matter what happens, we are not afraid of them now." Seeing that Huo Jiuge didn't like this hairpin, Qiu Chan picked out other hairpins from the jewelry box, although there was no one left for her by Shen. It’s precious, but it’s also beautiful to take out.

Seeing that the two maids were so loyal, Huo Jiuge also had a happy expression on his face. At this moment, Mingyue took the clothes over.

"Just put your clothes here. You can go out first. The two of us will change the young lady's clothes here!" Dong Meiyi ordered.

Now, although Mingyue is a first-class maid, she does not have the right to serve Huo Jiuge personally. She looked at Huo Jiuge with dissatisfaction, hoping that she could seek justice for her, but the other party just nodded slightly and motioned for her to press Dongmei's hand. Do as you are told.

Mingyue had no choice but to put down her clothes and leave.
