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

"Sir," Shopkeeper Zhang bowed and said slowly, "My niece married a merchant in the suburbs of Beijing. Her husband's name is Zhang Huaiying. In recent years, the family has fallen into poverty, and my niece's husband unfortunately passed away due to illness, so we moved here..."

Jingyou looked at him expressionlessly, but he was secretly thinking in his heart, listening to what he said, it was basically consistent with the previous investigation, could it be that he really recognized the wrong person? Impossible, he could never have mistaken the person.

"Master," Fuqing said in a low voice, "Since this is the case, why not..."

Jingyou nodded slightly and looked at Chanyi who was holding the baby under the tree opposite. She lowered her head slightly, her face full of fear and anxiety, and he couldn't help feeling a little pity. I don't know what tricks this woman used to suddenly become a little widow. This pitiful look is really pitiful.

But she was clearly a maidservant in the Yong'an Marquis's mansion? At the very least, she was a low-ranking slave in their mansion. How could she have come to Jiangyin in a completely different way and created such an impeccable background? He was completely puzzled.

"Excuse me, sir, who are you..." Shopkeeper Zhang stepped forward and bowed, wondering in his heart how his boss had offended this high-ranking official.

Two days ago, the lady of the landlord's house came to him on purpose, saying that they were an orphan and a widow, with no male children in the family, and were afraid that someone would see them as easy to bully, so they wanted to recognize him as a distant cousin in front of outsiders, and told him about their family assets one by one, just in case, he would have someone to rely on. Look, only two days later, someone came to provoke them, oh, there are really many troubles around a widow!

"Our master is..." Fuqing was about to speak but was interrupted by Jingyou.

He looked Manager Zhang up and down for a long while, then he smiled slowly and said, "I'm just a passerby. I happened to see that your appearance was somewhat similar to an old friend of mine in Beijing, so I asked a few more questions. I didn't expect it to be a misunderstanding."

"It's a misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding." Fuqing saw his master's face brighten up, and hurriedly said to everyone with a smile.

"So that's how it is. The young master came with such a large army, and it frightened our wife." Nanny Wang patted her chest and said with a long sigh, "My wife never leaves the house, she is alone with a little baby, and she just moved here not long ago. Suddenly someone came to her door and asked her if she was a runaway slave from the Marquis's mansion. We were so scared that we dared not even breathe."

"Madam, this is a thank-you gift from our master to Madam Li. Please accept it. Thank you for your help last time." Fuqing said with a smile on his face.

The matter was clearly investigated and it was clear that she was just a young widow, but the master refused to believe it and insisted on coming here in person to ask her in person. This time, the young lady was frightened. This lady Li didn't look like a runaway slave from the Yong'an Marquis's mansion. Besides, how could a runaway slave bring such a small baby with him?

"Sir, you are too polite. It's just a small favor. Our small family cannot afford such a generous gift from you." Seeing the situation change, Su Chanyi hurriedly handed An'er to Chunyue beside her, squatted down and saluted to Jingyou.

Jingyou saw her red eyes, and her cute look of wanting to cry but not crying, and suddenly he felt mixed emotions. Forget it, whoever she is, as long as he can see her often, that's enough.

"It's just a small token of my appreciation." He said softly. Seeing her lowering her head, the annoying white flower hairpin on her hair stood out so clearly that he wanted to walk over immediately, take it off and step on it.

"Sir, these gifts are too valuable. We common people cannot afford them." Shopkeeper Zhang came over and blocked Jingyou's sight. He watched Fuqing directing the servants to move the gifts into the courtyard one by one, and refused repeatedly.

Heavy silver, colorful silk, precious ginseng, bird's nest, various supplements, and some jewelry and jade filled half of the yard, making people gasp. This young master was really too generous.

Shopkeeper Zhang couldn't help but feel a little nervous. This man was really rich and didn't seem to be an ordinary noble.

Chan Yi and Zhou Mama had already deduced that this young man was either a prince or a duke. How could an ordinary noble have eunuchs accompanying him?

Early this morning, she was drying medicinal herbs in the yard when she saw them come in and surround her. She was so scared that she didn't dare to speak for a while, not knowing what their intentions were.

The young man just stared at her without saying anything. After a long time, he dismissed his attendants and walked forward step by step, forcing Chan Yi to retreat under the tree.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Chan Yi asked in a feigned fear, "Did you not use the medicinal oil properly last time?"

Jingyou asked with a serious face: "Don't pretend, you are from Beijing?"

"How do you know, sir? My husband's home is indeed in the suburbs of Beijing." Chan Yi said in a low voice in pretended surprise, her hands clenched tightly together, suppressing the panic in her heart.

"What do you mean by suburbs of Beijing? Don't lie to me. I have seen you before." Jingyou suddenly laughed and took out a jade hairpin from his sleeve. "Look at this jade hairpin. Is it yours?"

"What jade hairpin?" Chan Yi asked with feigned curiosity. She took a closer look at the jade hairpin in his hand, shook her head and said, "Sir, I have never seen such a jade hairpin before."

"Never seen it? I saw with my own eyes that this jade hairpin fell from your head." Jingyou said with a sneer while holding up the jade hairpin.

When she saw the lily hairpin, Chan Yi's heart skipped a beat. Damn it, she really met an acquaintance.

It turned out that the man Pei Yunshan accompanied to the Lotus Banquet that day was him? He was the Fourth Prince! He was so unlucky that he was recognized by this man.

This Fourth Prince is mentally ill. Not only did he pick up a girl's things and not return them, he also kept them with him. He even rubbed the jade cicada on the hairpin until it was smooth and shiny. It's really perverted.

"You are a runaway slave from the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion!" Jingyou gently stroked the jade cicada with his fingers and said with a cold face, "Believe it or not, I will send someone to send a pigeon to ask the people from the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion to come and take a look?"

"Marquis Yong'an? What runaway slave?" Chan Yi pretended to be panicked and said in a trembling voice, "Sir, what are you talking about? How can I not understand? Since I married my husband, I have not left the house, how could I be from the Marquis's Mansion? Sir, you must have recognized the wrong person."

"Waaaaaaaaa..." The crying sound of a baby came from the room.

"Sir, my baby has woken up." Chan Yi said anxiously, looking into the house.

"Your doll? Is it a lie?" Jingyou stared at her panicked expression, unable to tell whether it was true or not.

"Madam, the young lady is awake and she is hungry." Chunyue came over quickly with the baby in her arms, "Sir, please make way."

Hearing the baby's crying, Jingyou turned around half-believingly and looked at the baby in the little girl's hands. Chanyi took the opportunity to squeeze out from beside him, picked up An'er and comforted him gently.

"Sir, how can it be false? She is my baby." An'er stopped crying in Chan Yi's arms. She just sobbed and pulled Chan Yi's clothes with her little hands.

Jingyou suddenly blushed, cleared his throat, stepped back and turned around. Chanyi took the opportunity to glance at Chunyue, and her worries were reduced by half. No matter what, that person would not really ask someone from Yong'an Marquis' Mansion to come over, right?

"Madam Li, Madam Li." Nanny Wang pulled Chan Yi's sleeve, and Chan Yi came back to her senses.

She was dumbfounded looking at the pile of gifts. The Fourth Prince was indeed a prince and was really rich. He actually brought so many gifts. What did this mean?

"Young Master, please take back these gifts. We really don't want to accept them without doing anything." Chan Yi pleaded in a low voice.

What woman doesn't like gold and silver? Jingyou frowned slightly, looked at her carefully and said, "You are my savior, what are these worth? Besides, I also accepted your medicinal oil, so I will take it as a thank you gift."

"Young master, there should be no reward without merit. What happened last time was just a simple favor, and it can't be considered a life-saving favor. That medicinal oil is not worth so much money." Chan Yi frowned and shook her head helplessly.

"How about this, just consider these as gifts from friends, will you accept them?" Jingyou looked at Chanyi with deep eyes and smiled faintly.
