Qing He turned around and saw a very friendly maid standing in front of her.

The maid bowed to her and said, "This servant greets the young lady!"

Qing He said calmly: "You've got the wrong person. I'm not your young lady."

The maid looked up in surprise and said, "But the young master has already told us to clean up the villa and is waiting for you to move in."

Qing He asked, "Who are you?"

The maid said sincerely, "My name is Xia'er. I used to serve the young lady. Don't you recognize me?"

Qing He shook her head. "It's just that we have the same name and surname, and we look a bit alike. Don't call me that in the future. Just call me Miss Yao."

The maidservant said cautiously: "We dare not! If the young master hears it, he will be angry! Oh, Madam, please don't go any further..."

Qing He asked in surprise: "Why?"

The maid said nervously: "That is... that is..."

Qing He thought that the area ahead was a restricted area of ​​the Jiang residence, and the maid was not convenient to say, so she said, "I know."

The maid breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then let me take you around?"

Qing He was worried about not having a companion, so she readily agreed, "Okay!"

The two of them left the vine trellis and walked west along the path. Along the way, the maid talked a lot about the young lady. Finally, she asked Qing He tentatively, "Don't you remember anything?"

Qinghe shook her head.

After hearing this, the maid's face suddenly brightened, and she looked much more relaxed. She introduced various sights along the way, and finally led Qing He across a lawn to a quiet and spacious courtyard and said, "Madam, you must be tired after walking for such a long time. Let's go in and rest and have some tea."

As he said this, he led the way in front and led Qinghe directly there.

When the two of them came to the corridor, they suddenly heard a strange voice saying, "Qinghe, until the seas run dry and the rocks crumble, we will never change in this life!"

Qinghe was startled and looked up. It turned out to be a white parrot speaking.

She felt strange and asked the parrot, "What did you say?"

The white parrot chanted again: "Qinghe, when will you come back? I miss you so much..."

Qinghe looked at the white parrot in shock, at a loss for a moment. What was it saying?

She wanted to ask the maid named Xia'er, but when she turned around, she found that she was gone.

Just as I was wondering, a hand suddenly reached out and fed the parrot a handful of sunflower seeds. Then I heard a deep voice saying, "During the days when you were away, it often heard me recite these two sentences, and it learned them."

Qinghe looked back and found that Jiang Yaonian had arrived at some point.

He stared at her and said, "I have always remembered the two sentences you carved on the snowman, so I believe you will come back one day... I didn't expect that this wish would really come true."

For some reason, Qing He looked at his affectionate gaze and suddenly felt that he might have really loved his wife...

But maybe he couldn't stand the loneliness later on, and while he missed his wife in his heart, he was enjoying his cousin's warm and soft body in bed, without neglecting either.

Thinking of this, Qing He turned away and said calmly: "I believe that Mr. Jiang will definitely wait for his wife to come back in the future... Then you can read these two vows to her!"

After saying that, he went down the stairs and walked out of the yard.

Jiang Yaonian said from behind her: "Why are you deceiving yourself and refusing to admit that you are my wife?"

Qinghe didn't answer him and walked out.

……

At night, Yan Shixun was finally released by Mrs. Jiang.

He asked Qing He what she did alone in the afternoon. Qing He smiled faintly and said, "I walked around the garden. What about you? What did you talk about with the old lady?"

Yan Shixun was silent for a moment, then said, "It turns out that my grandmother's maidservant was Madam Jiang's biological sister. She entered the palace at the age of fifteen and was selected as the princess's companion. Later, she followed the princess to marry into the Duke's Mansion. So Madam Jiang took us in for the sake of her biological sister."

Qing He nodded after hearing this and said sadly, "It is also risky to take us in! If things go wrong, we will be framed as traitors. The old lady kept us just based on a letter, which is also a very risky thing to do."

Yan Shixun suddenly said, "By the way, the old lady said that her grandson has a wide network of contacts in the court. Do you want him to help find your parents?"

Qing He shook her head and refused: "I don't want to owe him any favors!"

"But if we can find your parents soon, can't we move out of here as soon as possible?"

Qing He frowned and said, "He has already determined that I am his wife and thinks that I just refuse to admit it... What if I ask him to do something again, wouldn't it be even more entangled? Now I'm worried about how to get rid of him, so how can I dare to take the initiative to deliver myself to him!"

Yan Shixun thought about it and said, "That's true! How about this, I ask him for help? Even if I owe him a favor, it's me who owes him a favor!"

……

On the other side, Madam Jiang quietly asked her grandson, "How is it going? Is there any progress this afternoon?"

Jiang Yaonian remained silent...

It seems like that little girl really doesn’t remember what happened in the past!

And they were very disgusted with him and refused to give him any chance.

Seeing this, Madam Jiang sighed and said, "Well, let me tell you something that will make you even more sad..."

Jiang Yaonian immediately became alert and asked with a frown, "Why, is Qinghe already engaged to that pretty boy?"

Madam Jiang shook her head. "That's not the case! Qinghe's grandmother was a princess from the previous dynasty..."

Jiang Yaonian looked at his grandmother in surprise, "Then Qinghe is..."

Madam Jiang nodded slowly and said, "That's right! The current emperor is her uncle, and the emperor is her grandfather..."

Jiang Yaonian suddenly remembered something and said, "Did the King of Huainan already know that Qinghe was his niece...so he invited her to his house every now and then?"

It turns out that the suave prince was not after Qinghe's beauty, but just wanted to get closer to his relatives?

Also, when they got married, the wedding gift that Prince Fu was entrusted to send was also sent by Qinghe’s relatives?

Maybe Qinghe's mother already knew her daughter's whereabouts, but it was just not convenient for her to come out and meet her!

Thinking of this, Jiang Yaonian suddenly felt a vague sense of uneasiness.

……

During dinner, Mrs. Jiang smiled kindly and said, "Shixun, doesn't your family often eat roast chicken slices with mushrooms? Try our chef's dish and see if it's delicious..."

Yan Shixun smiled and took a piece of food with chopsticks. After tasting it, he nodded and praised: "Well, it's cooked to the right temperature, tender and fresh."

Jiang Yaonian said at the side, "Qinghe likes this dish very much."

Yan Shixun suddenly looked at him and said, "Mr. Jiang, can you please do me a favor?"
