Chapter 56

Li Shanzhou never appeared again until Yujun boarded the carriage.The carriage was passing through the street, and the noisy street was next to my ears. Yu Manlou didn't speak a word all the way. It wasn't until entering Yufu that Yujun knew how sincerely he was welcoming her back.

Yumanlou led Yujun to the courtyard in person, and she hardly saw any servants along the way, and she was still surprised that there were very few servants in the huge Yufu.When I got to the gate of the yard, I saw an old mother about fifty years old, looking at her with tears in her eyes, with a kind face.

The brazier had already been prepared at the door, so she stood by the brazier and said to Yujun, "Miss, step over the brazier, and you will be safe and sound from now on, everything will be fine!" , Yujun took a big step suddenly, she said "Okay" repeatedly, couldn't help crying, squatted down and was about to kneel down, Yujun was caught off guard, seeing that she was quite old, she hurriedly stopped her, and said something "Mother-in-law can't", the old mother will get up, tears are streaming down, holding her hand and saying: "Like, really like, you and your mother are very similar!"

The old mother's palms were warm, rubbing Yujun's palms, making her feel warm for no reason.She cried for a while, and laughed again through her tears. While saying "It's good to be back, it's good to be back", while leading the two maids to salute Yujun solemnly.

Yujun later found out that the old mother's surname was Zhao, and she was Mother's nanny, who had watched her grow up.After her mother left home, she was not willing to leave, and stayed in Yufu all these years.According to my uncle, Mother Zhao has two sons and no daughter, so she always loves her mother as her own daughter.When she heard that her mother had passed away, she cried hard. After seeing Yujun, she wanted to put double love on her.Hearing that she was going back home, Mother Zhao volunteered to go back to her to take care of her.

Of the two maids, one is delicate and lively, named Xizhu, and the other is quiet and pleasant, named Jingqiao. Both of them have first-class and outstanding appearances, and they were specially selected by my uncle to serve her.

Yu Manlou briefly introduced her to her, but fortunately, Yujun had already prepared for it, and hurriedly took out three small purses from her sleeves as a gift for them.The two girls were so happy that they squatted down to thank her.

Zhao's mother was a little worried that she would run around in the countryside for many years, she was used to being free, and she would be lacking in sophistication, but now that she behaves well, she has the demeanor of a lady, she finally calmed down, and put away her purse with a smile .

On the way, someone came to the palace, saying that the queen mother was in poor health, and asked Yu Manlou to go there, but Yu Manlou couldn't help it, so she just told Zhao's mother to take good care of Yujun and left in a hurry.The two girls were still a bit cautious at first, but when Yu Manlou left suddenly, they let out a long breath instead.

Seeing the relieved expression on Xizhu's face, Yujun couldn't help asking, "Are you very afraid of my uncle?"

"No." Xizhu lowered his voice solemnly: "Miss, you may not know that when you just returned to the mansion, Mrs. Yu is young, but he is usually unsmiling and spends time in the study. Although we are all in the mansion, but It's also rare to see Master Yu. I thought he was a bad-tempered person, and he made me so nervous just now!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Jing Qiao hurriedly grabbed her sleeve and said in a low voice, "What nonsense are you talking about in front of Miss! Miss, don't blame her..."

Xizhu raised his eyes and saw Yujun's face was tense, and he couldn't see any joy or anger, so his heart skipped a beat.Both she and Jingqiao entered the mansion early, but it is a pity that they are usually in the backyard and rarely see Yumanlou.Yumanlou is also lenient in the discipline of the servants, they live a comfortable and free life, they are used to making jokes on weekdays, seeing Yujun's age is also similar, they unconsciously slipped the tongue.

Talking about the master's uncle in front of the master, what if the young lady gets angry and kicks her out immediately!
She was hesitant to kneel down, Yujun hurriedly supported her, and said: "What is this? I asked you, and you told me the truth, which is a good thing. I am not familiar with Yufu, and there will be many more in the future." I have to ask you about things, and you should tell the truth in the future.”

"That's natural." Xizhu heaved a sigh of relief, and Jingqiao's heart dropped to the ground.This young lady heard that she was wandering in the market, but she unconsciously carried an air of extravagance.She watched her from the sidelines, fearing that she would be a difficult person to get along with, but now it seems that she is approachable, a person who does not take her identity seriously, and is an easy master to serve.

"The two of them are used to being loose. If you say something wrong and make the lady dissatisfied, the lady must tell me to see if I don't teach them well." Mother Zhao smiled and called out: "I don't want to wait for the lady to take a bath. Change clothes!"

The two quickly answered yes, and took the lead in entering the room to prepare.

Mother Zhao said: "We have a custom in Dazhou. People who come back from afar have to use lemongrass and grapefruit leaves to boil water to bathe. One is to remove dust, and the other is to drive away evil spirits and eliminate disasters! My lord told me about your fate early this morning. , Scared me out of my wits, but fortunately you are back, and the past is over. Let's take a good bath and wash away all the bad luck!"

Her words were cryptic, and Yujun didn't know what her uncle had said to her, so she just followed her inside with a smile.When Yujun soaked in the hot water, her whole body was warm, from her toes to her hair, she felt comfortable everywhere.Zhao's mother and Xizhu wanted to serve her, but she sent them away. After bathing, they changed into new clothes and stood in front of Zhao's mother, Xizhu, and Jingqiao. The three of them couldn't help admiring.
