But when Xueyan handed it over several times, both of them shook their heads and refused to accept it.

Aunt Rong smiled and said to Lin Daiyu,

"Young lady, if you have any requests, just tell us two. If it is possible for us to do it, we will not refuse."

Lin Daiyu gave Xueyan a look, and Xueyan had no choice but to take back the silver.

Lin Daiyu stood up and said to the two of them with a smile,

"It was my ignorance that allowed these yellow and white things to taint the eyes of the two maids."

The two said they didn't dare.

After a while of polite resignation, Lin Daiyu looked at the two maids and asked,

"By the way, two maids, do you know if any of my family members in Yangzhou City have come to your camp with money to look for me?"

"This……"

Madam Rong and Madam Hua looked at each other, both at a loss.

As people from the village, how could they not know what was happening outside?

It is said that the official who led the troops to attack Qingfeng Village was the father of Miss Lin.

But seeing that this girl is so frail, if she tells it out loud, she might get hurt.

The sins committed by both of them are serious.

Therefore, for a moment, I don’t know how to respond.

Seeing the expressions of the two men, Lin Daiyu thought that her father had not arrived yet.

He looked a little lonely and said with a forced smile,

"Perhaps my father is too busy with his duties at the yamen to come here."

Madam Rong and Madam Hua smiled awkwardly and did not answer.

Lin Daiyu suddenly looked up at the two of them and said,

"Madams, if anyone from the Lin residence comes up the mountain, could you please give me a word?"

The smile on Rong Mama's face slowly faded.

He shook his head slightly and said,

"I'm sorry, young lady, but we have a mission to accomplish. Our orders are to take care of you and rest well in this house. Please just stay here with peace of mind."

"If you need anything for food, clothing, or anything else, just tell us two."

Hearing this, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but look sad.

But he still bowed slightly to the two of them.

"Thank you two maids for taking care of me."

The two of them waved their hands anxiously.

"Oh! We are not worthy of such a great gift from the young lady. Taking good care of the young lady is our responsibility."

Lin Daiyu slowly raised her eyes, looked at the two of them and asked,

"I want to write a letter and send it down the mountain to tell my father that everything is fine, so that he won't worry about me. Is that okay?"

Aunt Hua pondered for a moment, then spoke,

"Logically speaking, there is no such rule on our mountain."

Lin Daiyu looked disappointed.

But then I heard Aunt Hua say,

"However, this is the duty of children, and since it was the girl who brought it up, I shouldn't have refused her."

"But this is a serious matter, and we two can't make the decision."

"Let's report this to the bee owner and ask him to make the decision. What do you think, young lady?"

After hearing this, Lin Daiyu's frown finally relaxed a little.

He quickly bowed to the two of them in gratitude and said,

"Thank you both, Madams, for pleading for me."

Then he stood up and took the silver ingot from Xueyan's hand.

He directly took Nanny Hua's hand and was about to give it to the two of them again.

Aunt Hua took a step back, smiled and shook her head, saying,

"Thank you for your kindness, young lady. However, we have our own rules. We are not allowed to accept money or gifts during our service. I hope you will understand."

Lin Daiyu was also deeply surprised when she heard this. She could only smile apologetically and return the silver to Xueyan.

Xueyan quickly caught it and put it into her pocket.

Lin Daiyu shook her head slightly.

To the two women,

"My maid is young and naive, I'm sorry to have made you two maids laugh."

Aunt Hua and Aunt Rong both smiled and shook their heads.

"Miss, please stay here for now. I will go and report your request to the emperor first!"

Lin Daiyu bowed slightly.

"Good work!"

Aunt Hua smiled and nodded, then turned around, opened the door and left.

Seeing this, Aunt Rong also offered to leave.

Lin Daiyu tried to persuade him to stay,

"Madame Rong, I'm unfamiliar with this place and know very little."

"How about you, Madam, tell me more about your village, so that I don't have to explain it to my father in detail after I return?"
