Shock! The maid in the Marquis's mansion gave birth to the eldest son of the prince

Dan Zhu crossed the path diagonally with a few new lotus leaves in his hands, glanced at her, and said in a long and sarcastic voice, "What a pity, what a pity. You were dreaming that you could become famous by having a son, but now your plan has failed. When the prince marries a lady, who would care about a concubine's son?"

Su Chanyi pretended not to hear and lowered her head, protecting An'er, and walked carefully towards the back door.

"Hmph! You ran away so fast because your secret was told. A little bitch thought it was a big deal just because she climbed into bed and gave birth to a sick and dead baby." Dan Zhu said proudly while holding the freshly picked lotus in his hands.

Suddenly someone blocked her way. She thought it was some ignorant little girl and was about to scold her for being blind.

Just as I raised my head to curse, I was met with a pair of cold, deep black eyes.

"Prince...Prince..." Danzhu stuttered, losing two of his three souls.

"It's not your place to comment on what's going on in the mansion. Mother Zhou, slap me hard." Pei Jin didn't know where the anger came from. His eyes were like swords. He stabbed the bully girl fiercely and kicked her to the ground.

"My lord, please spare me, my lord, please spare me. It was my fault. I will never do it again." Dan Zhu fell to the ground, and the lotus flowers in her hands fell to the ground. She did not bother to pick them up, but just begged for mercy desperately.

Mother Zhou, who had followed Su Canyi and lagged behind, looked at her with dismay, pulled out her hand and slapped her twice, saying secretly, "There are guests coming now, why don't you shut up! Are you trying to kill yourself!"

Although Luo Qingqing, who was following not far behind Pei Jin, did not see clearly what happened, she could clearly feel Pei Jin's anger.

She was a little surprised. Pei Jin was a person who never got angry easily. She had been with him for almost a year and had never seen him show joy.

However, this was someone else's family affair, and although she was suspicious, she was just an outsider and had no right to comment. She really wanted to know what had happened to make him lose control like this.

"Miss." Biyu called softly, looking over there with some curiosity.

Luo Qingqing calmly gave her a look that urged her to stay calm, slowly stopped, and inconspicuously stepped away from Pei Jin. She pretended to know nothing and said to Shanhu and Biyu in a gentle voice, "You two take the things. This is for the Marquis's wife."

Pei Jin turned back and saw Luo Qingqing covering her head and checking the gift box in the maid's hand. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Miss Luo, mother is waiting in the hall. Please follow me."

Luo Qingqing raised her head, smiled shyly at him and whispered, "We are from the Northern Frontier. I'm afraid of Madam Hou..."

"No, mother is not picky." Pei Jin said lightly and walked into the hall of the main house.

Mother Zhang came over with a smile and brought the two of them to the Marquis's wife.

"Mother, Miss Luo brought some specialties from Northern Xinjiang for you." Pei Jin saw his mother sitting on a round-backed rosewood carved chair, looking a little dazed.

"Mother." He called again in a low voice.

"Oh." Wang was thinking about what Chan Yi said. When he called her, she seemed to come back to her senses. She raised her eyes and smiled, "Miss Luo, please take a seat. Why are you so polite? We don't lack anything in our house. Thank you for taking the trouble to bring it all the way here."

"Madam, these are the local specialties carefully selected by Qingqing. I wonder if you like them. Jade, coral, please bring them over quickly." Luo Qingqing squatted down, bowed, and said with a smile.

Wang nodded thoughtfully, thinking that although this girl came from the countryside, she still observed proper etiquette well.

Seeing the Marquis's wife like this, Biyu felt a little sorry for her daughter. The daughter sincerely gave gifts to the Marquis' wife, but she was not warm and looked superior. This is because the prince is with her! If the prince was not there, who knows what would happen.

Wang glanced at the gifts presented to her, asked Mother Zhang to accept them, and asked Luo Qingqing to sit below her. Only then did she carefully look at the girl in front of her.

She changed into a light-colored gauze dress with moon-white patterns and gold flowers, which was the popular style in the capital this summer. She must have bought it for her because her son was afraid that her clothes would become out of date.

She turned her head and looked at her son, smiling and saying, "Shenzhi, Miss Luo is here as a guest in our mansion, you must take good care of her. If you have any questions, just tell mother. After all, she is the benefactor of our mansion."

She deliberately emphasized the word "benefactor".

Luo Qingqing pretended not to understand what the Marquis meant. She twisted the handkerchief in her hand and lowered her head, acting shy.

Wang turned around and said to her gently, "Miss Luo, please don't be so shy. People living here are just like those at home. You are like Shen Zhi's sister."

"Thank you, ma'am. It is my blessing that an orphan like Qingqing can be cared for so much by you and the prince. I didn't want to bother you at first, but the prince just..." Luo Qingqing said shyly.

"Miss Luo, you can stay here and rest assured. I have sent people to Jingzhao Prefecture to look for your uncle, and I will send you there when I find him. I will also report your father's matter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he will definitely give your father the reward he deserves." Pei Jin said lightly, his face still gentle.

"Oh, by the way, Madam Zhang, quickly bring over the gift I gave to Miss Luo." Wang said, holding her forehead as if she had just remembered something, "Look at me, I'm old and my memory is not good."

Mother Zhang responded and took the gift, carefully placing it on the coffee table next to Wang.

"Miss Luo, this is a set of ruby ​​head ornaments passed down from our ancestors. I think it will look great on you when you are young." Wang opened the brocade box, took out a hairpin with a ruby ​​and a red gold peony flower, compared it to Luo Qingqing's head, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Miss, this ruby ​​hairpin is so beautiful." Biyu, who was standing behind Luo Qingqing, praised. She was very satisfied at the moment. It seemed that the marquis's wife treated the young lady as her own daughter-in-law, otherwise why would she give such a good ancestral headdress to the young lady as a gift.

"Madam, this gift is too valuable. Qingqing dare not accept it." Luo Qingqing glanced at the talkative Biyu and stood up and said.

"Miss Luo, why be so formal? Accept it quickly, otherwise you will think that the gift I gave you is not to your liking." The marquis's wife pretended to be angry and placed the brocade box in her hand.

"Please accept it. This is also a token of your mother's love." Pei Jin said in a gentle voice.

Luo Qingqing then reluctantly accepted it, lowered her head slightly, and secretly glanced at Pei Jin opposite her, a blush slowly appearing on her face.

Wang saw this and said calmly, "Miss Luo, what are your hobbies?"

"To be honest with you, ma'am, although Qingqing is a rough person, she also likes embroidery and needlework. My mother taught me this when she was still alive." Luo Qingqing said in a low voice, rubbing her handkerchief with both hands, looking a little unnatural.
