The Return of An Lingrong in Legend of Zhen Huan

After waiting for Baoyu to bury her parents, An Lingrong decided to go back as it was getting late, leaving a maid to come back tomorrow to check on her.

On the way, Baoyu suddenly stopped An Lingrong and said, "Young lady, aren't you in need of a maid who can do your makeup? I think that one would be suitable."

An Lingrong followed the direction of Bao Lu's finger and saw a little girl of about twelve or thirteen. The little girl was covered in dust and shivered in the corner, but from the material of her clothes, it could be seen that she must have lived in a good family.

"Miss, don't be fooled by the fact that the girl is covered in dust. The material she is wearing shows that she must have been from a wealthy family. And even though she is covered in dust, you can still see that she has no calluses on her hands."

After hearing what Bao He said, An Lingrong understood. A maid from a wealthy family, without calluses on her hands, must have been a close servant. Besides serving tea and water, she would also help her master to dress up. She didn't expect that Bao He was such a thoughtful girl.

An Lingrong came up to the boy, pointed at the little girl and said, "I'm in need of a maid. What can this child do?"

Seeing that there was business coming, the young man hurried forward to greet her: "Ah, the nobleman has taken a liking to this girl. Two months ago, the fifth-rank civil servant was confiscated for corruption. This girl was a servant in their mansion who was responsible for combing the master's hair and applying makeup."

An Lingrong came to the little girl. The child noticed someone coming and immediately huddled up and trembled even more. An Lingrong said softly: "Don't be afraid. What's your name? How old are you this year? What can you do?"

Perhaps it was because of An Lingrong's gentle voice, the little girl looked up at the veiled lady in front of her. Although she was dressed simply, her voice was gentle, which made the little girl feel very close to her.

"My name is Qiu'er. I just turned thirteen this year. I know how to dress up." The little girl said timidly.

Phew, that's great, she knows how to do makeup, and I guessed it right. "How much is this little girl?" An Lingrong turned around and asked the boy without changing her expression.

"If the lady likes it, ten taels will be enough." The human trafficker was very happy. Although the little girl knew how to dress up, she was too young and too talkative. She had not been sold for two months. Finally someone wanted her, so she must be sold this time.

Bao He handed the money to the man, took Qiu Er's indenture from the man and handed it to An Lingrong. An Lingrong bowed her head and said to the little girl: "Let's go."

After returning to the inn, Qiu'er knelt in front of An Lingrong and said, "Master, please give me a name."

Indeed, a newly bought maid needs to be given a new name. Firstly, it means starting over, and secondly, the servant will have a new name so that she will serve the new master well and not be loyal to the old master.

"From today on, you will be called Baoyu. Let me make it clear to you today. I will go to participate in the beauty contest in a few days. If I am selected, you and Baoyu will have to accompany me to the palace. The palace is different from the outside world. Let me ask you, are you willing?" An Lingrong made things clear first.

But it doesn't matter if she doesn't want to. Her mother doesn't have a maid to serve her. Usually, Aunt Xiao helps take care of her. It's just right to send this girl back to serve her mother. Besides, with her father's official position, even though she has Chun Yuan's influence, she can't guarantee that she will definitely be a concubine.

"I am willing to follow you faithfully, young lady." Baoyu knelt in front of An Lingrong and said. After that, An Lingrong asked a few more questions and learned that although Baoyu was born in that family, her parents had passed away and she had no relatives.

On the way back to the inn and passing by the government office, An Lingrong took the two of them to register. After accepting the indenture contract, she took the few people back to the inn.

An Lingrong nodded: "Baoyu, you will help me dress up tomorrow morning. Baoyu, I will write a prescription tomorrow and you can help me get some medicine."

"Yes, I understand." Baoyu replied with her head down. "Baoyu will accompany me tonight. Baoyu, you go take care of Aunt Xiao. It's getting late, go and rest first."

"Yes." Then the two of them retreated.

An Lingrong lay in bed at night, thinking that she felt relieved because both Baoyu and Baoyu were orphans. Since Baoyu helped her bury his parents, An Lingrong felt that Baoyu would be more loyal.

Baoyu is young, has a clear mind and doesn't have those petty thoughts, so you can use it with confidence.

An Lingrong turned over and thought about the prescription that the Queen gave her in her previous life to force her to get pregnant. It was very useful to her now, but she couldn't get it all at once.

Also, if Queen Chunyuan's voice suddenly changes, it might attract attention. Tomorrow, I'll ask Baoyu to get some medicine for treating the cold, and use the cold as an excuse to slowly change her voice. Well, let's do it.
