I was a housekeeper in ancient times

With the right time, right place and right people, she had time to be alone with Qi Motai, but who knew that Lin Weiqiao and Wan Jie'er would suddenly come. Isn't this Chunchun ruining her good thing?

The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she became. "Wanjie, didn't your mother teach you that you can't visit other people's homes during the mourning period?"

Wan Jie'er was stunned. Although she was young, she knew what was good and what was bad. She could hear the dissatisfaction and accusation in Yu Muqin's words. She quietly leaned against Lin Weiqiao and stammered, "Third Aunt, I, I..."

If she didn't teach, it was Yu Muyan's fault. If she did teach, it was also Yu Muyan's fault because she didn't take good care of Wan Jie'er.

Lin Weiqiao took a deep breath. What the hell was going on?

Qi Motai said: "Rules are dead, but people are alive. Didn't you hear Wanjie say that her mother is sick? Why do you care so much? Our family is not someone else's, right, Wanjie?"

After saying that, Qi Motai pinched Wan Jie'er's face and said, "Uncle didn't know you were coming, so he didn't make any preparations. What do you want to eat? Uncle will ask the kitchen to make it. I haven't seen you for a while. Do you miss uncle?"

As he spoke, he took Wan Jie'er to the inner room.

Yu Muqin, who was left behind, was furious, but couldn't get angry, so she could only glare at Lin Weiqiao angrily, "Since Second Sister is sick, why don't you stay by her side to take care of her, and bring Wanjie out with you?"

Lin Weiqiao pretended to be submissive and said, "Madam asked us to come visit the county lord. Does the third lady have any objection?"

"How dare you! What's your attitude? Is this how Second Sister disciplines her servants?"

"Does the third girl also shout and scream like this when she goes out?"

Lin Weiqiao didn't bother to pay attention and turned to go into the inner room.

Yu Muqin was so angry that he scratched all the potted plants nearby. Why?

She has been inferior to Yu Muyan in everything since she was a child. When relatives and friends talk about her sisters, Yu Muyan is praised the most, as if she and her other sisters were born to serve as Yu Muyan's foil.

Born from the same mother, why was Yu Muyan raised in the Qi family, living a better life than her sisters, and even marrying into a count's family?

Even Yu Qimotai, who is so outstanding, has feelings for Yu Muyan. It seems that all the good things in the world are taken by Yu Muyan alone.

Even though Yu Muyan was now a widow with a lot of burdens, everyone was still following her! Even Qi Motai hadn't given up.

She felt unwilling to accept the fact. Compared with Yu Muyan, what exactly was the difference between her?

When she entered the inner room, she saw that Qi Motai was only concerned with accompanying Wan Jie'er and had no time to pay attention to her. No matter how thick-skinned she was, she was too embarrassed to stay and leave in anger.

Lin Weiqiao, who was eating snacks, saw through Yu Muqin's thoughts at a glance. Instead of visiting his own sister who was sick, he came to his uncle's house to chat with his cousin about trivial things. His thoughts were too obvious.

But it's normal. Not to mention anything else, Qi Motai's appearance alone is enough to charm a lot of girls.

She looked at Qi Motai and smiled happily. She was still worrying about how to ask Huiyang County Lord for help. The appearance of Qi Motai just solved this problem.

She asked Mugua to take Wanjie out to play, "Master Motai, please help my wife."

Qi Motai, who was originally smiling, looked serious when he heard this and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong with Sister Yan?"

"It's the fourth girl."

"Sister Fan?"

"The fourth girl has been missing for some time and couldn't be found anywhere. Madam has shed so many tears and exhausted herself because of this. Fortunately, God has a good heart and helped us find the fourth girl."

"Found it? Where?"

"It was found in Lihua Village in the suburbs by Nanny Guo, the fourth girl's nanny. She said it was kept in a local family named Hu."

"Why don't you send someone to find it back now!"

Seeing Qi Motai's anxious look, she knew that she had found the right person.

She explained that because it was Nanny Guo who discovered the thing, she did not look carefully and could not be 100% sure that it was Fan Jie'er. Moreover, the Hu family was a wealthy family in the local area and it was not easy to offend them.

It is possible that the Hu family refuses to admit it and quietly sends Fan Jie'er away.

"I dare not let Madam know about this, lest Madam be so happy for nothing. I dare not let other people in the mansion know. Now that Master Bo is gone, other houses are eyeing our eldest house covetously, hoping that our eldest house will not live well, so why would they help? After thinking about it, I think the only one who can help Madam is you, Master Motai."

"Just tell me what you want me to do. Since it concerns Sister Fan, I won't ignore it."

What she wanted was what Qi Motai said. Her plan was to let Qi Motai go to Lihua Village in the name of hunting and outing, and secretly meet up with Nanny Guo and her husband.

Without being noticed by the Hu family, he created an accident and made sure Qi Motai saw Fan Jie'er with his own eyes, and then recognized her and took her away on the spot.

Qi Motai didn't understand. "Since it was Fan Jie'er's nanny who saw her, it must be Fan Jie'er. Why didn't they just go to her house and take her away instead of going around in circles?"

She said: "Finding Sister Fan is of course a priority, but why did Sister Fan appear in Lihua Village after being missing for so many days? This is also a priority. We do this so as not to alert the enemy and thus identify the mastermind behind the incident."

"You mean, Sister Fan got lost on purpose..."

"That's right. Otherwise, how could Sister Fan appear outside the city? Master Motai, please help us investigate this matter."

Qi Motai agreed immediately and promised to bring Fan Jie'er back safely.

She was very relieved. Qi Motai looked like a martial artist and also held an official position. She also told Qi Motai to bring more people with him to avoid a fight.

Before leaving, Qi Motai asked about Yu Muyan again, "Tell sister Yan to take good care of herself. No matter how difficult it is, we are here... We are here. If you have any problems, just come to us."

She could see that behind Qi Motai's hesitation was helplessness and bitterness. "Okay."

She wanted to say something else, but she was not Yu Muyan, so no matter how much she said, it would be useless. She could only sigh.

Qi Motai is a few years older than Yu Muyan. Yu Muyan already has several children, but Qi Motai is still single. Anyone would sigh that the Prince of Xiang has feelings for her, but the goddess has no intention.

There is a saying that goes, life is full of love and passion.

In order not to cause trouble to Yu Muyan, after Yu Muyan got married, Qi Motai joined the army and worked hard outside, rarely returning to Beijing.

Over the years, the two have hardly seen each other. Even if there was a chance to meet, Qi Motai would try to avoid it, hiding his deep longing in his heart.

She had never seen anyone so infatuated.

"Oh." She sighed.

"Why is mom sighing?" Wan Jieer asked.

"Just sigh for those poor people."

After returning to Shuangxiyuan, Yu Muyan looked a little unnatural when she heard Wanjieer say that she had seen Qi Motai, but she still asked Wanjieer: "Is Uncle Tai okay?"

Wan Jie'er had no idea what the adults were thinking, "Uncle Tai is very good, but he is a little thinner than last time."
