Doting on concubines and destroying wives?I am no longer the mistress of Houmen!

Chapter 72 Birthday



Chapter 72

Knowing that Ge Baoer was going to harm Xiliu, Lin Yunwan was actually a little worried.

After all, it is a human life, she said to Pingye: "Send another thick woman to watch her secretly, as soon as she leaves the Yuxing Pavilion, she will follow her secretly."

Afraid of scaring Xiliu, Pingye told her in advance.

Xiliu said: "Sister Pingye, you don't have to be too cautious, so as not to alarm Aunt Ge. I know what to do, you go back and put Madam at ease."

If she is so bold and not flustered, nothing bad will happen.

Ping Ye said: "Then I'll just let the mother-in-law look at you roughly, and you take care of yourself."

Xiliu nodded, went back to Yuxing Pavilion and met Tongliu.

It wasn't just a random encounter, Tongliu was holding a plate of fruit in his hand, and she came over to let her taste it, and asked her with a smile: "Wu'er, I see that you have gotten very close to the people from your wife's side recently."

Xiliu was very vigilant.

Tong Liu then said: "Don't worry, I will never tell Aunt Ge. You know our aunt, she belongs to Madam."

Xiliu smiled, and didn't eat her fruit, but asked, "Can you water?"

Tong Liu said "Yo" and said, "You are asking the right person, I know water. Do you still remember that when we first entered the mansion, I told you that when I was young, I was talking to my brothers and sisters in Zhuangzi. Let's fish in the river together."

Xiliu said, "Then can you teach me?"

Tong Liu was very embarrassed: "How can we teach you in this kind of weather? We are maidservants, so we can't get wet every day. At most, I can teach you to hold your breath."

Xiliu wants to learn from her.

Ge Bao'er was embroidering shoe mats in the house, thirsty and wanted to drink water, but she couldn't see streams and willows for a long time, and the one who came in to pour water was a servant girl with thick hands and feet, so she shouted: "Wuer, Wuer?"

Xiliu rushed over.

Ge Baoer asked her: "What are you talking to over there?" His eyes were full of doubts.

Xiliu said: "Auntie, Tongliu, Auntie Zhuqing's girl, told me that Young Master Qing is going to celebrate his birthday."

Ge Baoer smiled: "I know."

She touched the insoles in her hand. It has only been a few months, and her son's feet have grown up. This pair of insoles was embroidered for him.

Xiliu looked at Ge Baoer, and said: "Madam is going to hold a birthday banquet for the young master, and I have invited Mrs. Xia, Aunt Jia, and... Mrs. Lin, Young Master Lin to come over."

"What? People from the Lin family are coming too?"

Ge Baoer opened his eyes wide.

Just dozing off, God gave me a pillow, what a surprise!

She put down her needle and thread, and asked excitedly, "When are you coming? Where is the banquet?"

Xiliu said: "...This, this servant has not heard of it yet."

Ge Bao'er didn't want her to pour tea anymore, so she pushed her and said, "Go and talk to Tong Liu more, and ask all these clearly. You don't need to serve here, you go quickly."

Xiliu was pushed out of the door and continued talking to Tongliu.

She inquired about the news, and finally told Tong Liu about being trained by the steward's mother when she first entered the mansion.

The two were like sisters, holding hands in the corridor.

Tong Liu said with a smile: "It's been a few years in a blink of an eye, Wu'er, I envied you so much at that time, you have the support of my mother, and you have come to Yushou hall to serve the old lady step by step."

She won't say much about the latter, and it's certainly not a decent thing to be reduced to serving Aunt Ge now.

Xiliu herself was a little lonely, when they parted, she said to Tongliu, "You should call me Xiliu from now on."

Tong Liu looked at Ge Baoer suspiciously, and said carefully: "Won't Aunt Ge be angry?"

Xiliu said calmly: "The name was given by my wife. Although I am serving Aunt Ge now, my aunt is only half a master, and she can't change the name my wife gave me without authorization."

Tong Liu patted the back of her hand with a smile, and said, "Okay, I will follow you, and I will call you Xi Liu in the future."

After Xiliu returned from here, Aunt Zhuqing shouted from the house: "Tongliu, come back."

"coming."

Tong Liu trotted in and immediately closed the door.

Zhuqing let her sit down and let her eat the snacks on the table.

Tong Liu was also clever, and said everything she saw in one go.

After listening for a long time, Zhuqing felt that something was wrong, and said to herself in a low voice: "What are you trying to do!"

Why can't she see it at all?

Tong Liu didn't know the inside story, so she said: "Master Qing is celebrating his birthday, should we prepare a birthday gift for him too?"

Zhu Qing was not interested, and said coldly: "Look at what suits you, and pick one out for him."

He also specifically told Tong Liu: "Don't make it too expensive, he won't need it."

After all, Master Longbow is the real son in Madam's heart!

\\

"Ma'am, the Xia family and Master Yi both wrote back and said they would come."

Taoye sent in two letters.

Lin Yunwan finished reading the letter and gave instructions for the banquet.

Ping Ye came in from the outside and said in a surprised tone, "Ma'am, Xi Liu is here."

"Why did she come here?"

Lin Yunwan was also very surprised, she told Xiliu to pretend nothing happened, Xiliu shouldn't come here blatantly at this moment.

"Let her in."

Xiliu came in, holding a pair of insoles in her hand, and said, "Madam, Aunt Ge sent me over to ask you, is it appropriate for her to give this pair of insoles to Master Qing for his birthday?"

Lin Yunwan glanced at it casually, it was just an ordinary insole.

Tao Ye was also very surprised after seeing it: "I still want to send you over for this matter?"

Who doesn't know?People in the house don't like this aunt who has come from a bad background. If she has any face, she should stay in Yuxing Pavilion honestly and don't provoke her anywhere.

But people don't do things for no reason.

Lin Yunwan said: "Go back and tell her, she can send it away if she wants."

Xiliu nodded and left.

Lin Yunwan told Ping Ye: "Open the window."

Ping Ye opened the window, Lin Yunwan turned her head to look out, and sure enough, she saw Lu Changgong and Brother Qing coming.

Brother Qing's face turned pale when he saw Xiliu coming to Lin Yunwan.

This maid is not here to complain to her mother!

Lu Changgong pushed Brother Qing's shoulder: "Why don't you leave?"

Brother Qing hurriedly came back to his senses, and said, "It's nothing." Bite the bullet and went in to say hello to his aunt, because seeing Xiliu made him feel very uncomfortable, and he felt guilty when he talked to Lin Yunwan.

"Mother, mother."

He dared not look up.

Lin Yunwan asked calmly, "What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"

Brother Qing shook his head and said, "No."

Seeing that there seemed to be nothing wrong with my aunt's face, I was relieved.

His mother probably didn't know his life experience yet.

When he was sitting with his mother again, he must have been absent-minded, and he found an excuse to leave after a while, trying to find a way to see his mother.

"Mother, I, I'm so scared! I want to tell my father, I'm afraid that my mother and brother will know."

I was so anxious that I was about to cry.

Ge Baoer felt sorry for his son: "My son, don't be afraid. Mother will solve it, and mother will not let you... Your mother knows that I am your mother."

Brother Qing lowered his head guiltily: "I'm sorry, mother."

Ge Baoer hugged him tightly, tears streaming down his face: "Good boy, call me mother again, and call me mother again."

"mother."

Brother Qing also put his arms around her neck.

But Ge Baoer cruelly pulled his hand away, wiped away tears and said: "Mother knows you are afraid. Don't worry, Mother will never let you worry about it anymore." Reluctantly touched his face: "Okay Celebrate your birthday, have a lively birthday."

She turned away sadly.

No matter how stupid Brother Qing is, he knows that something is wrong with her mother.

What does mother want to do?

He waited anxiously for the birthday party.

"Brother Qing, why are you restless?"

Lin Yunwan sat beside him and cared.

Brother Qing raised his head and said out of his wits, "No, it's nothing."

He was thinking about his own mother.

Mother is also coming to give him a birthday gift, where is she?Why haven't you come yet?
