Reborn, the daughter of the Marquisate went crazy

The return convoy was just as fast as the one that came. However, after only half a day, Xie Qingli ordered them to find an inn to rest.

Ding Bo, the manager of the caravan, complained that the young lady seemed a little spoiled, but since she was someone the lady valued, he followed the arrangements and found an inn.

In the inn room, Nanny Yan sat upright on the couch, staring at Xie Qingli without blinking, her eyes full of kindness, and she was secretly happy in her heart: "The little lady is exactly the same as Miss Mu Xue when she was young. This is Miss Mu Xue's child, there must be no mistake!" Thinking about it, her eyes couldn't help but moisten.

Xie Qingli was taking Nanny Yan's pulse, but her expression was becoming increasingly serious. She asked softly, "Nanny, you're old and shouldn't be traveling any longer. Why did you come all the way here and endure this? Why did Mother send you here?"

Nanny Yan said hurriedly, "Don't blame Miss. It was I who took the initiative to ask you to come here. I thought that since you grew up in the countryside, you wouldn't know the rules and etiquette of Shengjing City, so I wanted to teach you along the way. Miss, you have never been to Shengjing City, so you don't know what it is like. If the ladies of those noble families make the slightest mistake, they will be laughed at for the rest of their lives, and it will be difficult for them to find a partner in the future."

She said somewhat embarrassedly, "I never thought that the young lady was so graceful and elegant, no less graceful than the noble ladies in the capital. She didn't need me to teach her. I was too proud!"

That day, Xie Qingli was extremely surprised to see Nanny Yan getting off the carriage. Nanny Yan had traveled thousands of miles to Jiazhou just for her. Looking at Nanny Yan's thin face, her heart was deeply moved. She asked softly, "Nanny, did your legs hurt occasionally before? Did the pain get worse after all this traveling?"

Nanny Yan nodded and sighed, "I'm old and useless. The further south we go, the more humid the weather becomes, and the more painful my legs become." She paused and continued, "But it's not a serious problem. I'll just have to bear with it. Don't let me delay your journey. The young lady is looking forward to seeing you soon!"

Xie Qingli said with a serious expression, "If you keep running around like this, you won't be able to keep your legs. From now on, I will give you acupuncture every night until you are healed."

Without waiting for Nanny Yan to object, Chunya helped Nanny Yan lie down, and deftly rolled up her trouser legs, revealing her skinny legs. Xie Qingli gently massaged Nanny Yan's legs.

Nanny Yan was deeply puzzled. Could this young lady actually know medicine? She strained her eyes, trying to see clearly, but the comfort in her legs made her sleepy. It had been a long time since her legs had felt so relaxed. Her eyelids grew heavier, and soon she fell asleep, snoring softly.

Looking at Nanny Yan's sleeping face, Xie Qingli was silent for a moment.

In her previous life, Nanny Yan was the person closest to A'niang, and she was very kind to the little maids. Unfortunately, later on, for some unknown reason, she suddenly went crazy and ended up committing suicide. A'niang was deeply shocked by this.

In this life, this is the person she wants to protect.

Xie Qingli began to insert the needles, her movements extremely gentle, and soon beads of sweat began to seep out of her forehead. After the acupuncture was completed, she told Chunya to look after Nanny Yan, then stood up and walked out of the bedroom to call Ding Bo.

Ding Bo was originally a centurion in the Jiang family army, but he injured his arm in a battle, so he left the army and returned to Shengjing City to make a living. A Niang sympathized with his situation and asked him to be the manager of her dowry shop. Ding Bo was the manager that A Niang relied on the most.

Xie Qingli bowed to Uncle Ding and said softly, "Uncle Ding, Nanny Yan's leg disease is very serious, so it's not advisable for her to travel any faster. Starting tomorrow, please slow down your pace!"

Did Nanny Yan have a leg problem? Ding Bo hadn't noticed anything wrong with Nanny Yan's legs along the way. But the young lady wasn't doing this for herself. Ding Bo hesitated and said, "But Madam asked us to return to Shengjing within two months!"

"Don't worry, Uncle Ding. We have to make the necessary decisions in this emergency. I don't think Mother would want anything to happen to Nanny." Xie Qingli paused, then said, "If Mother blames you, I will take full responsibility!"

Uncle Ding was a little surprised. The way the young lady spoke and acted didn't seem like that of a country girl who had never seen the world. He secretly praised her and bowed to Xie Qingli, saying, "It's up to you, young lady!"

As Ding Bo just left, a maid peeked in at the door. Seeing that there was no one else in the room, she quickly rushed in, smiled flatteringly at Xie Qingli and said, "Miss, my name is Cui'er. Let me serve you and let you rest!" As she said that, she walked towards Xie Qingli.

Chunya happened to come out of the inner room. When she saw Cui'er, she exclaimed, "Who let you in? Get out quickly, this is not the place for you!" Then she protected Xie Qingli behind her like an old hen, staring at Cui'er with a fierce look.

Xie Qingli felt amused. Chunya often forgot that she knew martial arts. How could a maid like this hurt her?

The maid named Cui'er rolled her eyes and looked at Xie Qingli with some pleading. Seeing that Xie Qingli was just smiling at the two of them, she glared at Chunya angrily.

She bowed perfunctorily to Xie Qingli and said in a cold voice: "Since Sister Chunya doesn't want my help, I will take my leave first!" After that, she turned and left the room, walked to the door, and slammed the door shut.

Chunya was afraid that Cui'er would make a surprise attack, so she ran over and stuck to the door, listening to the noise outside.

Cui Er was heard muttering curses as she walked, "Bah! She's just a country girl, yet she really thinks she's a rich lady? What's with all that pretentiousness? She might be a fake! Humph! That squeamish girl isn't even fit to carry the shoes of a young lady, yet she dares to think of replacing her?"

Xie Qingli had excellent hearing and heard every word Cui'er said.

Nanny Yan has already explained that Cui'er was not the maid chosen by A'niang.

When A Niang was seeing off Nanny Yan and the others at the gate of the Marquis's mansion that day, for some reason, Old Madam Xie had sent Nanny Xu to bring in a maid, who was Cui'er. Nanny Xu said that Cui'er was a suitable person carefully selected by Old Madam Xie, representing her true love for her granddaughter.

A Niang knew that Madam Xie would not be sincere, but in public, she could not refuse the gift from the elder, so she could only reluctantly accept Cui'er and secretly told Ding Bo to keep a close eye on her along the way.

On the way to Jiazhou, the other maids took turns to go to Nanny Yan's carriage to take care of her every day, but Cui'er occupied a carriage alone and did not approach them.

Along the way, Cui'er did not do anything out of the ordinary except complaining that the carriage was not comfortable enough and the food was not exquisite enough.

Now, Cui'er is deliberately trying to get close to her. What is her intention?

Chunya stuck to the door and listened for a long time until there was no sound at all. Then she returned to Xie Qingli and whispered to her, "Miss, there's something wrong with Cui'er. You must not trust her!"

Xie Qingli found a comfortable position, leaning lazily against the back of the chair, and chuckled, "Oh? What did you know? Tell me quickly."

Chunya pointed at Xie Qingli's tilted posture and said sternly, "Miss, Nanny Yan said that girls should sit upright. You're sitting like this, which is called 'not sitting properly'. If Nanny sees you, she will definitely criticize you!"

Xie Qingli gave a thumbs up and said, "My Chunya is such a good student and has made rapid progress! But don't worry, Nanny can sleep through the night and won't see me like this."

She smiled with her eyes curved, and continued, "As for those rules and etiquette, as long as you don't show your true colors in front of others, it's fine. You can do whatever you want behind others' backs. It's so tiring to be so strict all day long!"

She patted the chair beside her and motioned Chunya to sit down. Chunya imitated Xie Qingli and lay down on the chair. Well, the young lady is right, it is more comfortable this way, and she threw Nanny Yan's teachings to the wind.

Chunya glanced at the door again and lowered her voice, "My lady, Cui'er used the jewelry to bribe the other maids. She also came to me and wanted to exchange jobs with me. She wanted to serve you."

"Just now I heard her scolding the young lady outside the door. She clearly looks down on the young lady, yet she insists on serving her. She must have bad intentions!"

Xie Qingli nodded slightly: "Of course she has no good intentions. She is probably planning a big move against me! As for who assigned her..." She paused and sneered: "On the surface, she was sent in by Old Madam Xie, but from her words, she is defending Xie Qingyao..."

Xie Qingli whispered in Chunya's ear, "Tomorrow, go ask those maids where Cui'er is on duty. If she really wants to cause trouble, don't blame me for being rude!"

In the previous life, there was no maid named Cui'er in the Marquis's Mansion...
