After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

Qiao Rongjin returned to Haitang Courtyard and informed her precious son that the princess would send the old nanny over in a while. Then she collapsed on the chair and didn't want to move. The past few days she had traveled through time were really killing her. She had been busy all the time, and she really needed a good rest.

"Mom, have some tea." Qi You poured the tea and brought it to his mother, his eyes full of heartache. His mother had really worked hard these days.

Seeing his mother make another personal trip just for his words, he felt indescribably happy.

"Well, the tea poured by our baby is delicious!" Qiao Rongjin can always find something to praise Qiyou no matter when and where.

Qi You can now respond calmly when faced with his mother's praises, but he is still shy deep down. His eyes are shining, and you can tell at a glance that he is in a very good mood.

Qiao Rongjin pulled Qi You, who was sitting straight, over and held him in his arms. His little body was soft and it was so comfortable to hold him!

For the next half month or so, Qiao Rongjin lived the wonderful life she wanted without leaving the house, and Prince Rui never set foot in Haitang Courtyard again. All she did all day was eat, sleep, and play with Qi You.

Anyway, the funds I have now are enough to keep the entire Haitangyuan running well, so I'll just let it go for a while.

Oh, there is also a new person in Haitangyuan, she is the nanny who took care of Qi You before. Her surname is Lin, and everyone calls her Lin Nanny.

The first day she arrived, she looked like she was almost dead. Because she did not take good care of Qi You, she and several maids were all beaten with thirty boards. This old lady was lucky because she survived the death of two maids. However, her illness became worse and worse, and she was unable to take care of anyone at all. She is still lying in bed. It is still a question whether she can get better, but Qi You likes her, and Qiao Rongjin is willing to take care of her.

Thinking that there was always no one to serve Qi You, Qiao Rongjin thought about it and decided to let Zhu Yun take care of Qi You temporarily.

Qiao Rongjin considered many factors before choosing Zhuyun. Zhuyun is quiet and loyal. She is at least more trustworthy than Qinyun and Hongdou who have just arrived. If you tell her to do something, she will do it without any questions. She is very suitable for Qi You.

She had understood Qi You's temperament a little bit during this period. He didn't like noisy places, nor did he like to join in the fun. He probably didn't like talking too much to the servants either. Sure enough, Qi You was still quite satisfied with Zhu Yun.

After half a month of observation, Qinyun and Hongdou are still quite dedicated in their work. Although Qinyun has her own little thoughts, she is still taking her work seriously. Qiao Rongjin is also satisfied, but still asks Qinglian and Zhuyun to watch her.

As for Hongdou, Qinglian and Zhuyun discovered through their careful observation during these days that she had met Madam Yan's servants once. However, perhaps because Hongdou had stayed in Haitang Garden for too long, she didn't want to bother with Madam Yan's people at all. When a maidservant beside Madam Yan saw her again, she took the initiative to tell Qinglian.

Qinglian was shocked at that time. Later, Qinglian and Hongdou went to meet the people. When Madam Yan's maids saw the two of them together, they thought they saw a ghost. They glared at Hongdou and never came again. They realized that the maid they arranged had turned against them and brought the enemy with her. They understood that Hongdou could not be used. It was not safe to use such a stupid person!

Later, Hongdou knelt in front of Qiao Rongjin and told him everything, including why she came to the mansion, why Madam Yan's people were looking for her, and what they asked her to do.

At that time, Qiao Rongjin and Qinglian had complicated expressions. They really didn't expect that Hongdou would reveal everything.

Knowing that Hongdou was 'kidnapped' into the palace by Madam Yan just to have enough food, Qiao Rongjin thought this girl was really adorable. However, thinking of what Qinglian had told her before about Hongdou's appetite, Qiao Rongjin also felt that it was really difficult for ordinary families to afford to support Hongdou. But here in the palace, she could eat her fill, and no one in Haitang Courtyard despised her appetite, beat her or scolded her, and she had little work to do, and the master she served was not too troublesome. Qiao Rongjin often asked the small kitchen to cook and make cakes, and would also make an extra portion for the maids. This was probably the reason why Hongdou was expressing her loyalty?

Hongdou stayed here permanently from then on, and Qiao Rongjin didn't let Qinglian and Zhuyun keep an eye on her anymore.

The side room of Haitang Courtyard is separated into six compartments. All the servants of Haitang Courtyard live there. It is spacious and clean. As the head of Haitang Courtyard, Qinglian naturally lives in the best position, which is also the largest compartment in the side room. It is located on the far left and has good lighting. Then there are the places where Zhuyun, Qinyun and Hongdou live respectively, and Nanny Lin lives on the far right.

At this moment, Qiao Rongjin was drawing a blueprint in her own room. She wanted to make a swing in the yard, and planned to go directly to the princess to ask for two craftsmen after she finished the drawing.

The yard of Haitangyuan is actually not small, and there is a century-old tree. In this season, it would be nice to put a swing under the tree and swing on it every day. Her kids will probably like it.

Qiao Rongjin is a practical man who does what he says, so he didn't leave the main hall all morning.

This gave Qi You another opportunity.

Qi You and Zhu Yun were currently staying at Nanny Lin's residence. The door was closed, with only a crack in the window.

The doctor said that Nanny Lin is afraid of cold and should avoid cold wind.

Nanny Lin at this moment is completely different from the Nanny Lin half a month ago. Although the previous Nanny Lin was seriously ill and her face was pale, she still looked like a human being. But now Nanny Lin is a walking corpse, looking like a ghost that people dare not look directly at.

Her cheeks were sunken and her body was left with only skin and bones. She looked at Qi You with eyes full of fear, despair, and even pleading. She wanted to move, but she didn't have the strength to do so and her whole body trembled subconsciously.

When she heard that Qi You was going to take her to Haitangyuan to serve him, she was so happy that she went crazy!

She thought that after Qi You took her in, she would still be as prosperous as before, be able to control this kid, and pocket all his property. Then she would find an opportunity to get all the money out of the palace without anyone noticing, and use the money to redeem herself and leave the palace. In the future, she would become a big landlord and live a rich life. However, she did not expect that after arriving at Haitangyuan, she would be greeted with an inhuman experience like hell.

Qi You is completely different from the Qi You she knew before. Although Qi You now only looks to be four and a half years old, Nanny Lin knows that there is a devil's heart hidden under this child's tender body.

Nanny Lin was sure that this was not Qi You. It must be some wandering ghost that had taken over Qi You's body. Otherwise, she couldn't understand how a child who was only four and a half years old could come up with so many ways to torture people.

She wanted to tell Master Qiao that this was not her son, but a devil, but she could not move or speak, let alone dream of going to Master Qiao.
