Medical Princess

Chapter 261 The Maid Seemingly from a Good Family

The old maid’s words seemed to make sense. Qin Wanru couldn’t interfere in the affairs in Madam Di’s yard. Nevertheless, since she knew about it, she could send someone to Shui Ruolan’s yard with them and tell Shui Ruolan about it. Since she had looked over the maids, Shui Ruolan could simply record it without much trouble.

Qin Wanru could even directly instruct the supervisor of the inner court to handle this matter, and then told Shui Ruolan about it. In this way, it could be considered handled by Shui Ruolan.

The Qin’s Mansion and Duke Yong’s Mansion were close to each other and doubly related by the marriage between Qin Yuru and Di Yan. It was reasonable for Qin Wanru to do that.

“Go there on your own. You should know about the route to my mother’s yard.” Qin Wanru did not answer the old maid and said after thinking for a while.

Before the masters of the Qin’s Mansion moved here, the servants of Duke Yong’s Mansion came here to help from time to time. So they were familiar with some important courtyards. Seeing this old maid come here with no one leading the way, Qin Wanru knew she knew about the route.

“Will we cause much trouble for Madam Shui?” Refused by Qin Wanru, the old maid became uneasy with fewer smiles on her face.

“My mother is in charge of this. It doesn’t matter.” Qin Wanru blinked and said leisurely.

“This… is about Madam Di… I’m afraid Madam Shui has a grudge against her!” The old maid looked at Qin Wanru and said.

She certainly hoped Qin Wanru could take this matter over and send someone to take them to Shui Ruolan’s yard where she could simply report it to Shui Ruolan without staying there for a long time.

Both Madam Di and Shui Ruolan were Qin Huaiyong’s wives, and they didn’t get along well with each other. As the servants of Duke Yong’s Mansion, it was reasonable for them to be afraid of being baffled by Shui Ruolan.

It seemed reasonable.

Qin Wanru suddenly showed a smile and looked towards the old maid below with a faint smile, “Where are the two maids? Bring them in and let me have a look!”

She neither said she wouldn’t take it over nor said she would. On hearing her words, the old maid was dumbfounded, but she nodded immediately and said, “Okay, I’ll immediately ask them in. I didn’t do that, because they have no manners and I am afraid they will startle you.”

Duke Yong’s Mansion was an aristocratic family. The old maid said the maids from Duke Yong’s Mansion had no manners in front of outsiders, so she didn’t bring them in to meet Qin Wanru. It was a farfetched reason indeed.

Although the old maid still looked unperturbed and turned around to ask them in without hesitation, she didn’t sound as reasonable as before.

Yujie stepped forward with the intention of following the old maid out to have a look, but stopped instantly at the sight that Qin Wanru shook her head silently.

Qingyue, who was standing at the door, didn’t care about it. She lifted the curtain and looked out.

The old maid said something to the two maids with their heads down. The two maids nodded and then walked over behind her. After entering the room, they respectfully bowed to Qin Wanru and then stood aside orderly, seemingly with nothing else in their mind.

Their etiquette and manners were quite good!

Their etiquette and manners were far beyond those of general maids. The old maid considered they had no manners. In this case, Duke Yong’s Mansion was quite strict with manners!

“Look up!” With a trace of sarcasm in her eyes, Qin Wanru looked towards the two maids who acted orderly, and said lightly.

“Raise your heads to show your faces to Second Miss. From now on Second Miss is your master!” the old maid said to the two maids with a smile.

The two maids answered and looked up together.

Seeing the face of one of the two maids, Qin Wanru smiled deeply with the coldness gradually flowing out of her eyes.

It turned out to be her! No wonder Duke Yong’s Mansion intended to send her here and make Qin Wanru take over this matter!

Duke Yong’s Mansion must think they could shift all the blame onto Qin Wanru.

The two maids were sixteen or seventeen years old. They looked very beautiful but not frivolous, even seemingly coming from a good family. Although they were looking up, they were well-behaved without looking around. The light green coats of Duke Yong’s Mansion made their skin look snowy and bright.

“They are the two maids given to Madam Di by Duke Yong’s Mansion. What can they do?” After looking them up and down, Qin Wanru said with a slight smile.

“Yes, they are given to Madam Di by our mansion. They are good at massage. Madam Di is sick and can’t move a lot. They can relax her muscles by massaging them so that Madam Di can get better. Our Old Madam specially found them and taught them some etiquette.”

The old maid introduced with a smile.

She obviously mentioned the Old Madam of Duke Yong’s Mansion with the intention of overwhelming Qin Wanru with the Old Madam’s senior status. Compared with Qin Wanru, the Old Madam was a real elder, so Qin Wanru certainly couldn’t reject the maids given by her.

“Good at massage? Can they give me a massage? I have a strong headache recently. I’m wondering if it was caused by the unaccustomed climate in the capital!” Qin Wanru reached out to rub her head and closed her eyes slightly.

“Okay, okay, I’ll ask one of them to serve you first!” The old maid promised and nodded to a maid, seemingly not baffled by Qin Wanru’s sudden request.

The maid stepped forward. After bowing to Qin Wanru, she went to stand behind Qin Wanru. Yujie moved slightly, but didn’t step aside.

The maid reached out to press the acupuncture points on both sides of Qin Wanru’s forehead and began to gently rub them. Qin Wanru, who knew about acupuncture, instantly knew this maid was really proficient. She rubbed the acupuncture points steadily and accurately with proper strength after just moving slightly.

Qin Wanru could tell she was proficient indeed!

Yujie also looked towards the maid’s hands. She, who knew about medical skills, could also see clearly that the maid was quite dexterous and skillful and very good indeed.

“Second Miss, what do you think of it?” The old maid, who had stood aside, asked with a smile in this moment.

“Not bad!” Qin Wanru nodded, slowly opened her eyes and waved her hand. The maid stepped back silently to the original position and then stood there with her head down, leaving a good impression on others.

“Second Miss, you mean…” the old maid said cheerfully.

“I mean you can directly turn to my mother. As a daughter, I shouldn’t interfere in this kind of thing!” Qin Wanru smiled faintly.

“But…” The old maid was dumbfounded. She didn’t expect Qin Wanru didn’t agree to take it over after all this. She seemed to have done everything in vain.

“I am tired. You can leave now!” Qin Wanru leaned back and waved to motion for them to leave.

“But…” The old maid was anxious and wanted to talk, but was pushed out by Yujie. The two maids left inside looked at each other, hastily stole a glance at Qin Wanru and then also went out.

At the door, Yujie said with her face darkening, “This kind of thing isn’t in the charge of my master. If you consider it not suitable, you can directly turn to our Madam Dowager or Madam Shui.”

“But Second Miss has specifically tested them, right?” At this time, the old maid finally had a chance to finish her words.

“Second Miss did want to help you, but now she is tired. You should leave now!” Yujie waved impatiently.

Qin Wanru obviously made fun of them! The old maid’s face turned livid with rage. However, knowing she wasn’t in Duke Yong’s Mansion, she bit her teeth, looked at the people around, held back her anger and helplessly left with the two maids.

After politely sending them to the door, Qingyue turned back and winked at Yujie and then went in the direction where the old maid left. Qin Wanru had told her to follow the old maid and see where she was going next!

Yujie turned back and went back to the room, only to see Qin Wanru sitting in the chair in a daze.

“Miss?” Yujie whispered.

Qin Wanru seemingly did not hear her and looked straight at a piece of floor tiles in front of her, with a trace of coldness in her eyes and no smile on her gloomy delicate face. She seemed to be completely different from the gentle and tender person she had been a moment ago.

“Miss!” Yujie hurriedly said, afraid there was something wrong with Qin Wanru!

This time, Qin Wanru heard her. With her deep eyes, she looked up slowly and looked towards Yujie. “Has the old maid gone?”

“Yes. Qingyue has followed her. Is there anything wrong with the old maid?” Yujie replied, while stealing a glance at Qin Wanru’s expression. Finding her expression had returned to normal despite the gloom in her eyes, she involuntarily felt relieved.

“There is something terribly wrong with the maid, not the old maid!” Qin Wanru said and slightly raised the corners of her mouth to show a sarcastic smile.

She had seen the maid who had stood there orderly. The maid was given to Madam Di by Duke Yong’s Mansion in the last life, and then Madam Di gave her to Qin Huaiyong. It was this maid looking well-behaved like coming from a good family who had enchanted Qin Huaiyong and made Shui Ruolan increasingly out of favor with Qin Huaiyong.

Shui Ruolan finally died with her unborn baby mostly because of this maid acting in collusion with Madam Di.

The maid looked innocent, but was deceitful actually. Duke Yong’s Mansion specially sent her to the Qin’s Mansion to help Madam Di deal with Shui Ruolan and Qin Wanru. The maid accomplished her task indeed.

She would never forget the maid framed her by deliberately clutching her belly, falling backwards and claiming to be pushed by her. At that time, the two interior old maids, who guarded the maid, rushed over to push her away. She bumped into a corner of the pavilion, and her blood stained the pillars around her.

It was Shui Ruolan who came over after hearing it and hurriedly asked someone to save her, otherwise she would have been dead.

After that, this maid actually put the blame on Shui Ruolan and her by claiming Shui Ruolan and she deliberately plotted against her in order to hurt her baby and it was just an accident that she had almost lost her life.

Thus, the trouble was reduced into a minor one and ended up with nothing definite. Only she had stayed in bed for half a year. Shui Ruolan was in increasingly poor health because of this and out of favor with Qin Huaiyong, and finally died with her unborn baby. In fact, this maid had played a big role in it.

Now it seemed so long ago, but everything was still vivid in her mind. Qin Wanru’s smile was no longer sarcastic, but cruel. Good, Duke Yong’s Mansion was reluctant to see Madam Di out of favor of Qin Huaiyong, so they sent this woman here again!

The maid was from a good family? Seemingly from a good family?
