Soft and crispy waist

Chunzhi's face had become thinner and grayer, and her eyes were as red and swollen as two quail eggs. She was still sobbing and crying, and when she saw Xia Zheng, she pouted in grievance.

He was about to say something, but Caiwei gave him a sidelong glance, and he shuddered in fear and lowered his head.

"What's the point of crying in front of us? We are not the young master. We don't even know where to put our strength. I really don't know where you got these people from, young lady. Each one is more powerful than the other. I feel a headache for you." The more Wei Qingqing spoke, the higher the corners of her mouth rose, and the words "gloating" were clearly written on her forehead.

The young lady's face darkened slightly, but she couldn't say anything.

Seeing this, Wei Qingqing became even more excited.

"What a pity, Madam, you put so much effort into sending two girls to please the young master, but now, just when you were getting a little bit of momentum, this girl ruined it. Oh, I'm curious, how dare you be so scared of the young master? You can still be his concubine, what a joke."

After being ridiculed by Wei Qingqing, Chunzhi cried even more breathlessly.

Xia Zheng also roughly understood it.

Yesterday, when Chunzhi was serving, she avoided Gu Yizi as much as possible, and it was probably quite embarrassing.

Not to mention that Gu Yizi was a beautiful and graceful girl, a child of destiny, and had never suffered such humiliation. They were half-forced into the family by the young lady. She could tell from what Gu Yizi said yesterday that she accepted them reluctantly. Chunzhi avoided her like the plague, which would make anyone furious. Not punishing her was already a great grace. If she had been in the Marquis' Mansion, she would have been beaten half to death.

Since Chunzhi was like this, Gu Yizi could just dismiss her as well.

Yesterday, the young lady asked her to serve food to Gu Yizi. If Gu Yizi had not agreed, she was afraid that she would not have been able to return to Shushiju yesterday.

Perhaps it was because she had already been taken in, and life would be difficult if she was sent back, so Gu Yizi did not send her back for this reason.

But thinking about how she had been on the verge of life and death in an unknown situation, Xia Zheng's back was still soaked with cold sweat.

"Sister Wei, come on, we're all women, why bother kicking someone when they're down?"

The young lady's words of advice seemed to have stomped on Wei Qingqing's tail, and the smile on her face immediately disappeared. She glared at the young lady above her with a sharp, cold look. "You know they are all women, so why did you recruit these two slaves? Aren't you just deliberately trying to make me unhappy? Do you think I, Wei Qingqing, am stupid? Tao Yurong, stop using your virtuous words to cover up your intentions. We both know what you are thinking."

"Madam, please be careful with your words! My young mistress is..." Caiwei had just opened her mouth when the young mistress stopped her. Although there was anger on her face, she still said gently, "No matter what you think, the Duke's mansion's heir is the most important thing now."

"Don't worry, I will definitely get pregnant before you."

"If my sister is pregnant, I will definitely be happy." The young lady said sincerely.

Wei Qingqing snorted disdainfully. "Then just wait and see. Hopefully, the one you carefully selected can stay in Sosekiju for a few more days. As for that Xue guy, I'm not afraid of him at all."

After saying that, Wei Qingqing stood up and walked away, laughing contemptuously as she passed by Xia Zheng.

"Young Madam, she..."

"Alright." Tao Yurong pulled Caiwei and shook her head, signaling her to stop. Then, with a slightly tired look, she turned to Xia Zheng. "Last night, someone from Sosekiju came to pass on the message. From now on, you will stay at Sosekiju to serve, and Chunzhi will stay in Fanghuayuan for the time being. You two entered the mansion together. If you're not in a hurry to go back today, just stay with her."

"Yes."

The young lady waved her hand, indicating that they could leave.

Xia Zheng reached out and pulled Chunzhi, who was still sobbing, out of the main house. She went all the way back to the servants' room where they had stayed before and asked, "What happened to you yesterday?"

"I...I..." Chunzhi trembled, thinking back to what happened yesterday before she said softly, "I'm really...really scared."

"Afraid? Afraid of the young master?"

Chunzhi nodded.

Xia Zheng was puzzled. Although Gu Yizi had a great aura, he was not harsh to others. Moreover, she had only served him at the meal yesterday.

"He...touched you?"

"No!" Chunzhi waved her hands hurriedly. "No, the young master was sitting there, and the young lady asked me to serve the dishes. I... I was scared... The young master raised his hand and I was frightened... I fell down. The young master looked over, and I... I screamed."

Hearing this, Xia Zheng felt a black screen in front of her eyes.

No wonder Gu Yizi got angry.

"You are so afraid of men, how did you do things in the Marquis' Mansion before? Why did you come to the Duke's Mansion? How did you deal with the young master when you met him before?"

"I was originally working in the laundry room at the Marquis's Mansion, so I didn't have to interact with men. I came to the Duke's Mansion because...my mother forced me to come. I thought I wouldn't be chosen. I had never met the young master before, so I don't know why I was chosen...I was so scared, especially when I saw the way you looked when you came back that day. I...I really couldn't control myself...Sister Xia Zheng, what should I do? What should I do?"

Chunzhi, who was out of control, held onto Xia Zheng's waist and cried bitterly, like a branch floating on the ocean, tightly clinging to another slightly thicker branch.

Xia Zheng didn't expect that Chunzhi had never met Gu Yizi before.

It was obvious that she, Qiuying and Donglin had all been arranged, so why was she the only one not?

In that case, Chunzhi was completely forced in by the young lady, so why was she chosen?

Check her?

Not to mention that there is no need for it now, Chunzhi alone cannot be considered a check and balance.

Unable to figure it out, Xia Zheng could only gently stroke her back and comfort her, "It's okay. The young master is not a petty person. The matter has passed. The young lady is also kind. You haven't served the night before, so she will arrange a place for you."

After all, the Duke's Mansion is not the Marquis' Mansion, and the Young Lady is not the Marquis's wife. She is not that cruel and can be considered a rare good master.

……

Inside the main house.

Tao Yurong threw the chess piece in her hand into the chess basket in disgust. "Waste!"

"Young Madam, please don't hurt yourself over such a useless anger." Caiwei hurriedly brought a cup of ginseng tea.

"I thought she was a sweet, innocent, and honest girl, and the young master would keep her out of pity, but she ended up causing such a commotion, and it got me mad as well."

Thinking of last night, Tao Yurong was filled with anger. She was afraid that Gu Yizi would not come to her place for the next few days. It was obvious where he would go. It was a waste to make that bitch Wei Qingqing proud. If she really took the opportunity to get pregnant...

"At least Xia Zheng stayed."

Speaking of Xia Zheng, Tao Yurong's expression changed slightly.

Caiwei didn't notice, she just paused and whispered, "But one is a little too few, should we choose two more people?"

"No," Tao Yurong sternly refused. "The young master is already displeased. If we rush to add more people, he'll definitely get suspicious. One will do. Xia Zheng has some brains."

"But I'm worried that if she's alone...it will be difficult to control her."

Tao Yurong snorted disdainfully. "She's just a servant girl, and I hold the whole family in my hands. What's out of my control? I'll tell her to do her best to keep the young master here for the next few days. As for those who are useless, I'll deal with them after a few days to save them the trouble."

"Yes, young lady."
