Chapter 596
Zhu Baoyue turned to face Song Guanzhou and wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve. Old Lady Zhu, whose face was dry but covered with makeup, stood behind the screen and did not dare to say much.
Seeing the doubt in Song Guanzhou's eyes, Zhu Baoyue turned around and smiled, "Young Madam doesn't mind my needlework, and she's still wearing these shoes."
Song Guanzhou followed Zhu Baoyue's gaze and saw that it was the shoes and socks on his feet. She praised, "Miss, you have superb craftsmanship. The shoes and socks you made are comfortable and good for your feet. Look, I have worn them so many times that they are a little worn out."
Zhu Baoyue shook her head repeatedly, "It is because you are kind-hearted, Madam, that you do not mind my filthiness."
"Why do you dislike it?"
Song Guanzhou stood up and sat down with Zhu Baoyue. "Such a good craftsmanship is beyond the reach of my maids. Moreover, your choice of colors is extremely good. It is really a treasure. Although I am reluctant to part with it, I still like to wear it every time I go out."
"If you like it, Madam, I will make it for you tomorrow. As autumn turns to winter, I will make you two pairs of soft and thick leather-covered high-rise cloud-patterned shoes."
"I'm just afraid it will be a waste of energy and it won't be good for the girl."
Zhu Baoyue quickly shook her head, her face like a child, a little shy because of the compliment, her eyes more determined, "No, no, Madam, don't worry, I use the best materials, it will definitely be good for your feet."
Looking at Zhu Baoyue like this, Song Guanzhou couldn't help but sigh, how gentle she is.
No wonder men love her, she is a woman, she likes it too!
Since Song Guanzhou was stopping here, Zhu Baoyue didn't want to leave, so she asked her mother to go outside to deal with it, and she stayed in the inner room to keep him company.
Seeing Song Guanzhou looking around her room, she thought about how dirty it was and was afraid of offending Song Guanzhou.
"Madam, the world is unstable now. I heard that you were in danger in Longen Temple and the thief is still on the run. You'd better be careful and cautious. You must have maids and servants by your side. If anything goes wrong, I will be worried..."
Zhu Baoyue wanted to say that she was worried and sad, but then she thought, she was just a prostitute and had no right to say such words.
The fairy-like young lady in front of him, pure and innocent, was allowed to sit in his dirty inner room for a while, which was a great favor that he could not imagine.
Her palms were full of sweat, and she stopped talking when she thought of this.
But Song Guanzhou was not the kind of person who didn't know what was good for her. She could tell whether others were truly concerned or just pretending.
Zhu Baoyue, quite surprised her.
She was a chivalrous woman in the midst of the dust. Not to mention that she sent someone to deliver a message to save Xu Lingqiao, she only said that she would no longer serve Pei An alone in the future. This alone was also something that people valued.
Pei An is not an ordinary playboy.
It is better to have his protection than to be tossed around in the dust and get dirty.
"I was careless today. I was attracted by the river lanterns of the vendors on both sides, and I missed Silang. I was separated from him by the crowd. Fortunately, I met Huang Sanlang. Otherwise, it would be difficult to find Silang in the crowded streets."
Huang Jia Sanlang...
Zhu Baoyue thought about what happened at the birthday banquet, and seeing that the young lady in front of her had a rosy complexion, she should be fine.
Because she looked at Song Guanzhou a few more times, Song Guanzhou tilted his head, "Miss Baoyue, do you want to tell me something?"
Zhu Baoyue hesitated for a moment before smiling faintly.
"I've seen the young lady since the birthday party. Seeing that she looks good today, I feel relieved."
"Don't worry, I rarely get sick, except for accidents."
Song Guanzhou patted his legs and said, "Now my legs and feet are fully healed, and I can run and jump without any problem. But Silang is worried that the thief has not been brought to justice, so he has kept me under house arrest. Now I can only live in the mansion."
"Young Madam is smart and perceptive. Someone must have had bad intentions. Speaking of wealthy families' backyards, I have been there many times and there are indeed many dirty things. Fortunately, there are few masters in the mansion, so the young madam can have some peace and quiet."
"Well, Miss Baoyue, did you suffer any injustice at the Huang family's birthday banquet?"
Zhu Baoyue's words reminded Song Guanzhou of the birthday banquet she had just mentioned. She asked casually, but Zhu Baoyue pondered for a long time before whispering, "Madam, I have also suffered an unexpected disaster. Fortunately, the two little girls below are fine. If it was more serious, I am afraid that I would not be able to open the door to do business now.
"What's so serious?" Also mentioning the little maid, Song Guanzhou recalled that day. Except for the fact that Jin Fuyun had a quarrel with him at noon and left the table without permission, everything else was relatively harmonious.
While asking, Zhu Baoyue looked at the stunning Song Guanzhou and sighed, "Young Madam, you are in the inner courtyard, so I'm afraid you haven't heard about it. I don't know how a bad guy got into the inner courtyard that day, and unknowingly put Gelsemium elegans in one of the good teas. The maid looked down on us actors and sent the tea that was taken away. Two of my maids accidentally drank it and almost died."
"Huang family's birthday party?"
Song Guanzhou frowned upon hearing this, and was surprised. She pointed her jade finger outward and said, "Did someone poison the birthday banquet of Mr. Huang Sanlang?"
How incredible this is.
Zhu Baoyue nodded slightly, with helplessness on her face.
"The Huang family gave me a large sum of money and told me not to tell anyone. The fourth and third young masters were there that day, asking for medical advice and medicine, and only then did my little maid barely survive."
When she said this, she looked up at Song Guanzhou.
"Now that you are fine, young lady, it must be that some of the wives and mothers of other families have evil intentions. The third and fourth sons of the Huang family have explained the situation to me. They are not targeting a lowly person like me."
Therefore, she was relieved.
Song Guanzhou felt a little depressed. She quickly recalled that day and it seemed that no female member of the family had any accident. She never expected that the little maidservant was poisoned.
"Shiro was there that day too?"
Zhu Baoyue nodded, her eyes sparkling with sincerity. Song Guanzhou raised his teacup and took a sip of tea. "He specifically told you not to tell anyone?"
"The two young masters of the Huang family and the fourth son all told me that this matter had nothing to do with me and I should just come back and have a good rest."
Her face was full of respect and admiration as she looked at Song Guanzhou.
"It is my duty to watch less, listen less, and ask less when I am walking in this world. But the young lady is my benefactor, and she happened to be a guest at the Huang Mansion, so I can't help but feel a little worried. Seeing that you are safe and happy today, I am relieved."
Song Guanzhou hesitated for a moment, then raised his eyes and smiled, "I'm sorry to bother you, young lady. I was fine that day except for being drunk. From now on, young lady, please be more careful when walking around the front yard and back house. The world is full of disputes and conflicts, and women are weak. If they are implicated unintentionally, it will be even more difficult."
When Zhu Baoyue heard this, she immediately stood up and knelt down to salute.
"Thank you, Madam. I will keep it in mind."
