I have traveled through time, who am I afraid of?

Chapter 266: One person cries and the other is annoyed

The little maid Qiu Gui recounted the whole experience of following Yin back to her parents' home today and then following Yin into the silver shop.

Without waiting for the Marquis to tell her to leave, and without the Marquis asking her any more questions, Qiu Gui had no choice but to take two steps back, lower her head, and stand back beside Qingye.

Aoba was standing there, feeling equally nervous.

She stole a glance at the Marquis, who was frowning and looking down, not knowing what he was thinking.

She glanced at the lady again... uh... she discovered... the lady was pretending to be unconscious!

Just now she clearly saw the lady squinting her eyes and secretly looking at the Marquis!

Qingye quickly lowered his head even more.

As a slave, it is best not to see what you should not see, and it is best not to know what you should not know. Only in this way can you live a stable and long life.

The two maids, Qingye and Qiugui, were standing at the end of the bed.

I don’t know how much time passed, Leng Xian didn’t even raise his head, he just waved to the two maids, indicating that they could go out.

Qiugui and Qingye secretly rejoiced in their hearts, bowed quickly, and quickly left the room and closed the door.

After leaving the house, the two little maids, who had been frightened and scared all day, felt cold all over and their legs were weak. They were anxious to find a place to rest, even if it was just to sit for a while!

But this was where the servants lived. Outside the house there was nothing except some sundries piled against the wall.

They looked around and saw that there were only two steps at the door where they could sit, but they did not dare to sit there, for they were afraid that their master would suspect that they were eavesdropping on his conversation.

The two had no choice but to walk a few steps further away before stopping.

Looking back at the closed door, they looked at each other without saying a word.

After standing quietly for a while, Qingye said, "Sister Qiugui, you stay here to look after the Madam first, I...I have to go back to see the Second Miss.

If I go back late, I'm afraid... I'm afraid I'll be scolded."

Qiu Gui listened, nodded slightly, thought for a moment, and said: "Qingye, go see Chuntao and call her over.

From this morning till now, I really feel like I can’t bear it any longer.

She has been in the mansion all day today and should have taken some time to rest.

If she is not asleep yet, please call her over to take my place for a while, my head hurts so badly!"

After hearing what Qiugui said, Qingye nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll go find Chuntao and ask her to replace Sister Qiugui." With that, Qingye turned and left.

Qiu Gui was the only one guarding outside the house.

It was night and the wind started to blow.

The wind in the autumn night was very cold. Qiu Gui stood alone in the autumn wind at night, and gradually felt the chill biting her bones.

Qiu Gui was shivering with cold. She wanted to put on more clothes because she felt so cold.

But she was also afraid that the lady inside would always need someone to serve her. If she was not there for a while, the lady would vent her anger on her, and she would be in trouble!

Qiu Gui didn't dare to leave and could only squat in the yard with her arms folded.

She recalled the former rich and luxurious scene of the Marquis's Mansion, and the exquisite and gorgeous Qimei Courtyard;

She recalled the beautiful scene when the lights in the palace were lit up every night...

Then he looked up at Zhongshun's small house with a dim light on, thinking that the marquis and his wife were in the house at that moment.

Qiu Gui felt even colder all over! It was the kind of cold that was filled with despair!

I'm afraid the Marquis Qinxing's Mansion will never be able to return to its original state!

The theft was only one reason why the Marquis' Mansion fell into such a miserable state. Another reason was that several masters of the Marquis' Mansion treated the eldest daughter, Leng Rongyue, harshly.

This can be heard in the words of the Shuntian Prefecture official whom I met not long ago.

As the lady's personal maid, she knew very well how the Marquis, the lady, the old lady and the two young masters had always treated the eldest daughter.

Not to mention the masters, even the servants, how much respect have they ever shown to the eldest daughter who was born of the first wife?

These slaves even regarded bullying the eldest daughter of the legitimate wife as a kind of pleasure.

Qiu Gui thought about herself and what she had done to the eldest lady before when she followed the lady...

Qiu Gui shuddered!

In the small house, Qiu Gui and Qing Ye had just been sent out by Leng Xian when Yin on the bed opened her eyes.

But she did not stand up, move, or speak. She just stared at the ceiling in a daze.

During that day, she was frightened and humiliated, and felt exhausted and even desperate.

Leng Xian and Yin, who were sitting next to them, were a couple who had slept in the same bed for many years. Just by listening to her breathing and watching the rise and fall of her chest, he knew that Yin was not fainted.

Even though she fainted before, she has woken up now.

Leng Xian picked up a cup of cold tea on the table and took a sip. The cold and bitter tea flowed down his throat and into his stomach. Leng Xian felt a chill all over his body.

Leng Xian didn't take a second sip and put the teacup down.

He looked at Yin, "Are you just going to lie there and pretend to be dead? Don't you have anything to say?"

After hearing Leng Xian's words, Yin, who was lying on the bed, felt a surge of grievance and fear in her heart.

Leng Xian is her husband. He had just heard Qiu Gui tell him what had happened to her today.

But at this moment, as a husband, he did not say a word of comfort, but instead questioned her in a cold tone.

Yin's tears burst out again, and she couldn't stop, followed by a burst of crying.

Yin couldn't stop crying. It seemed as if she wanted to cry out all the shock, humiliation and injustice she had experienced throughout the day, and cry her heart out!

But Leng Xian on the side was impatient to listen to the crying.

He's annoying enough.

Listening to Yin's crying only made him more annoyed and bored!
