Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Qingxue was a widow with three burdens. Such a woman should be miserable and haggard. However, when Nanny Zhuang looked at Gu Qingxue in front of her, she could not see any signs of embarra.s.sment.
She was wearing a purple-blue coat and sitting elegantly on the stone bench in the courtyard. Her temperament and demeanor were even n.o.bler than that of the Second Young Miss, who had always been pampered in the family. Her every move was even more imposing, and Nanny Zhuang could not help but be cautious.
Not only Gu Qingxue but even the three children behind her were cleaned up. They wore the most fashionable clothes, and there were wild boar heads, bacon, and sausages hanging in the courtyard.
Nanny Zhuang looked at Madam Yu and Chen Laifu in confusion.
The Eldest Madam always told this couple not to treat Gu Qingxue so well, right? Why was this young lady living such a comfortable life?
Madam Yu and Chen Laifu could only smile apologetically at Granny Zhuang.
Nanny Zhuang realized that Gu Qingxue was not simple and immediately walked up to her, she bowed to her, “Eldest Young Miss is right. When the Eldest Madam heard that Eldest Young Miss was getting better, she was very pleased. She especially asked this old servant to give young miss this month’s monthly allowance and some tonics. I hope the Eldest Young Miss will accept them.”
“The Eldest Madam is thoughtful. I’ll accept the things, and I’ve received the kindness as well. I’ll have to trouble you to go back and tell the Eldest Madam that she has taken good care of me all these years. One day, I’ll return personally to repay her,” Gu Qingxue said with a faint smile, she did not think much of it.
“Eldest Young Miss, the Eldest Madam said that it’s not easy for you to take care of the three Young Masters by yourself, so she specially asked me to come over and take care of your daily life. From today onward, this old servant will not go back,” Nanny Zhuang said, she walked into the courtyard house quickly.
Gu Qingxue was surprised to see Nanny Zhuang moving so fast as she spoke. This grandma was so fast that she did not even make a sound when she walked. It was obvious that she was a martial artist.
Not only that, but the six followers behind Nanny Zhuang were also restrained. It was obvious that they were powerful.
Only the first madam knew clearly whether the group of people sent by the Eldest Madam was here to help or harm her.
“I naturally can’t refuse the Eldest Madam’s kind intentions. It’s just that the master and the servant are different. Nanny Zhuang should go and stay with Madam Yu. If there’s anything you need, I’ll find you,” Gu Qingxue said as she looked at nanny Zhuang warily.
Nanny Zhuang paused in her footsteps and looked at Gu Qingxue meaningfully.
Madam Yu jumped out and pointed at Gu Qingxue harshly, “Gu… cough cough, Eldest Young Miss, Nanny Zhuang was sent by the Eldest Madam. She has an important status. How can you let her live in a dilapidated courtyard?”
“No matter how important she is, she’s still a servant. My mother is the Eldest Young Miss. Don’t tell me you’re planning to let the master make room for the servant?” Gu Lin mustered up his courage and said loudly, “My mother doesn’t like to be served by others. All of you, get out.”
“Don’t refuse the toast and take the punishment!” Before Madam Yu could finish her words, she was slapped on the face by Nanny Zhuang.
“How dare you?! The Eldest Madam asked me to serve her because she thinks highly of the Eldest Young Miss. I will do my best to satisfy the Eldest Young Miss. Everything will be arranged by the Eldest Young Miss.” Nanny Zhuang looked behind her from the corner of her eyes, she noticed that all the villagers who lived nearby had gathered to watch the commotion.
Under such circ.u.mstances, she could not offend Gu Qingxue.
