Song Mingli brought Jingyou back to Qichiyuan where she lived.

Ever since she had that doubt in her mind, she didn't dare let Jingyou out of her sight unless she waited for Molan to come back.

Fortunately, Molan didn't keep her waiting for long.

Almost immediately after receiving the news, Molan tried her best to rush back as fast as she could!

"Miss, are you looking for a maid?" Molan was exhausted. She was wearing the clothes she wore when doing rough work on the farm and she didn't have time to change.

It was early spring and the weather was still cold, but there was still a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

When Song Mingli saw Molan, her eyes immediately became sore and her surging emotions made her unable to help but hug Molan.

Molan was stunned, her whole body stiff, "Miss, I...I am dirty."

Song Mingli hugged her thin and strong shoulders and couldn't help crying.

Molan, it is because of her words that Molan will move forward courageously!

In her previous life, because of her weakness and stupidity, she caused this loyal maid to die at a young age, and her death was unclear...

Molan noticed that she was crying and looked at her nervously, "Miss? What's wrong? Who bullied you?"

Molan's blood boiled. With just one word from Song Mingli, she would fight to the death with someone.

Song Mingli burst into laughter, "No, I'm happy! I missed you... I'm sorry, Molan, I shouldn't have sent you to the farm! I was so confused!"

Molan looked at her carefully and saw that although she had tears in her eyes, there was light in her eyes.

Her overall condition seemed to be better than when she left.

Molan finally breathed a sigh of relief. She scratched her head shyly, "Wherever the young lady tells me to go, I will go... I... I miss you too!"

Molan didn't mind at all that she was sent out.

She was only worried about the young lady's situation and worried that others would not be able to protect her.

She was trained by the general as the young lady's shadow guard since she was a child, and the young lady was everything to her.

Song Mingli asked Zi Su to take Jing You out to play, and she pulled Mo Lan to sit down.

Molan refused to sit down, "I'll just stand."

"Please sit down. I have something to ask of you..."

Molan was startled and immediately knelt down, "Miss, if you have something to ask, just tell me, why beg me? You are embarrassing me!"

Song Mingli pressed her down on a stool, poured her a cup of tea, and wiped the sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief.

Molan couldn't help blushing and was so embarrassed that she didn't know where to put her hands.

But she was happy in her heart. It was so good to be back with the young lady and to be so close to her, just like returning to her original boudoir.

"I suspect that someone in the Gu family wants to harm Jingyou!" Song Mingli whispered.

Mo Lan's expression tensed up, and she stared at him and asked, "Why do you think so?"

Song Mingli shook his head, "It's just my intuition... Gu Qingshan came back and brought back two children, saying they were his cousin's children. But the way he looked at the two children was clearly full of affection. On the contrary, when he looked at Jingyou, there was only resentment in his eyes.

"I used to think that even if he didn't like me, he wouldn't be so unwilling to tolerate his own child. But now, I don't dare to think so!"

Molan was not surprised to hear this.

On the contrary, she seemed to know something hidden and hesitated to speak.

Song Mingli held her hand, "Molan, I was confused before and hurt your feelings! Now I understand clearly that no one in the Gu family can be trusted! You are the only ones I can rely on!"

Molan was a little excited, but still hesitant when looking at her.

Song Mingli understood that she was too naive and too cowardly before...

She was so well protected by her parents' family that she had never seen the evil of human nature.

Instead, she reminded her maids, which she mistook as "meaningful intentions."

To the extent that now, even Molan doesn't dare to speak freely in front of her.

Song Mingli sighed softly, "I realized it too late. Am I sorry to disappoint you?"

"No, Miss!" Molan said anxiously, "You have suffered! It is my fault that I failed to protect you!"

Song Mingli smiled and shook his head, "People always have to grow up on their own. The sooner they experience pain, the sooner they can wake up... Even my father couldn't protect me for my whole life, right?"

Molan nodded. She took a deep breath, as if she had made a great decision. "There is one thing I have never dared to tell you..."

"When you were pregnant, you encountered several accidents... I suspect that it was not an accident, but man-made!"

"Also, the midwife hired by the Gu family when you gave birth had a lot of problems..."

Molan revealed all the secrets and suspicions that had been buried in her heart for many years.

Song Mingli listened carefully and nodded from time to time.

It turns out that Molan was so alert and had noticed it long ago.

I dare not imagine that if Molan had not protected her, she and Jingyou might have been separated by the Yin and Yang... or even died together!

Song Mingli's whole body was cold, but his heart was extremely calm.

"Back then, the Gu family used their kindness to force my father to honor the marriage contract," Song Mingli sneered, "Now, seeing that my father is gone and the Song family has no value to them, they want me to make room for them?"

Mo Lan's face was cold and gloomy. "The Gu family is treacherous! They are so ruthless! Miss...what are you going to do?"

Song Mingli chuckled, "God is watching what we do."

She had experienced such terrible circumstances in her previous life, so what was there to be afraid of in this life?

Maybe God couldn't bear to see this anymore, so he sent her back so that she could take revenge?

How did the Gu family treat her in her previous life?

She will return them all, one by one!

"You protect Jingyou well, and I will take care of the other things." Song Mingli was no longer as naive and ignorant as before.

Even though she knew how vicious and cruel the Gu family was, she did not panic.

Her calmness and confidence made Molan feel more at ease than ever before.

"Well! Don't worry, Miss! Protecting the young master is my specialty!" Molan was full of confidence. This was a skill she had been trained in since she was a child!

Molan went to wash and change her clothes and became Jingyou's personal maid.

……

When Gu Qingshan left Chongming Hall, he was still holding a painting in his hand.

That was the "Fanning the Pillow and Warming the Bed" that Jingyou gave him.

When passing by the pond, he threw the calligraphy and painting in his hand into the pond.

He snorted angrily and strode away.

But after walking a few steps, Gu Qingshan turned back.

He stared at the calligraphy and paintings thrown into the pond.

The calligraphy and paintings floated up and down in the water, and the ink on them spread out, dyeing the clean white silk black.

Gu Qingshan stared at the dirty silk cloth and suddenly laughed.

The servant beside him didn't understand what was going on, so he asked quickly, "Do you want me to go get it back? But I'm afraid it's already spoiled!"

"Hahaha……"

Gu Qingshan suddenly laughed, his smile was cheerful but also a bit sinister, "It's already soaked, there's no need to fish it out!"

……

Molan took Jingyou to the study to study.

As Song Mingli was flipping through the account book, she suddenly thought of someone.

"Zi Su, what is Xiao Cui doing now?" Song Mingli asked.

Xiao Cui was the maid she bought from outside.

Two years ago, Xiao Cui was walking on the street, being dragged by her uncle to be sold to a brothel, when her carriage happened to pass by.

Xiao Cui threw herself onto her carriage and begged her for help.

Song Mingli bought her out of pity, and in order to avoid further trouble from her uncle, she signed a death contract.

He gave ten taels of silver to her uncle, and Xiao Cui became Song Mingli's slave from then on.

It was clearly a life-saving favor, but in the previous life, Xiao Cui carried her on her back and climbed into Gu Qingshan’s bed…
