The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 352: An's trouble (1)

Yang Qi was riding his horse quickly back to Linhu Courtyard when Mother He and Nanny Zhu were already pacing around the house in a hurry.

In Linhu Courtyard, only Mother He and Nanny Zhu knew about Yang Qi's departure.

Before the young lady went out yesterday, she clearly said that she would be back before dinner. But now it is already daybreak and she has still not returned. Could something unexpected have happened?

"Madam Zhu, the young lady hasn't returned yet. What should we do?" Madam He couldn't stand or sit at this moment. When she thought of the young lady's situation, she couldn't stay any longer and wished she could leave the house immediately to find someone.

My little girl is really pitiful. My wife passed away when she was just born.

From childhood to adulthood, no one cared about the young lady except the second wife.

Now, every bit that the young lady has is fought for by herself. Apart from the Second Madam, no one else can support her from behind.

The young lady has been going out frequently these days. Although Nanny Zhu doesn't know what the young lady is busy with, she knows it must be something extremely important.

Apart from anything else, this Guangming Hall was built by the young lady herself.

Just ask, in the huge Mansion of Duke Song, or even in the whole capital, which other young lady has such ability?

Madam Zhu took a look at Madam He's current appearance, and perfectly explained what it meant to be an ant on a hot pot: "Madam He, don't worry, the young lady has been accompanied by experts when she has been out of the house these days.

Besides, the lady knows her limits.

Over the years, we have watched the young lady grow up. She has her own rules and reasons for doing things.

Tell me, there are so many things going on in the Duke's Mansion and Guangming Hall. Is there anything that Miss can't handle well?"

Mother He knew that what Nanny Zhu said made sense, but she was still a little unsure. Just as she was about to speak, there was a hurried knock on the door outside the yard.

Mother He paused, looked at Nanny Zhu, and then the two of them closed the young lady's room.

"Mother He, go to the kitchen and prepare some porridge. Make some noise. Remember, you must make some noise.

I'll go deal with An's people." After leaving the house, Madam Zhu held Madam He and whispered to her.

The young lady has already placed her own people in every courtyard. If anything big happens in the mansion, the young lady will definitely receive the news.

But now, nothing special happened in the mansion.

Apart from Mrs. An, Nanny Zhu couldn't think of anyone else who would knock on the door at this time of year, and be so hasty and rude.

As for Mother He, she has known about Mother Zhu's abilities for many years.

Mother He believed what Aunt Zhu said without a doubt. She went to the kitchen immediately, lit a fire, and then specially selected some utensils that could make noises easily.

Sure enough, when Madam Zhu opened the door, the person who appeared outside the courtyard was indeed Madam Jin, who was by An's side. She was blocking the door with six or seven maids and old women.

Everyone's face was sullen. This atmosphere was not a good one.

"Mother Jin, why are you so troubled to come to Linhu Courtyard so early this morning?

If you have anything to say, just ask the maid to pass the message here." Although Nanny Zhu opened the door, she had no intention of moving aside and she still stood at the door.

Nowadays, the An family is the most powerful one in the Duke's Mansion, and as a result, Mother Jin has become more arrogant and looks down on Nanny Zhu.

Originally, Mother Jin was wary of Nanny Zhu because she came from the palace.

But in the current situation, what does it matter if Nanny Zhu came from the palace? She is still living with an unpopular young lady in a small courtyard at the edge of the Duke's Mansion.

Mother Jin has now realized that the third young lady is different from the second young lady and has never been favored by the Duke.

As for the old lady, her treatment of the third young lady can only be described as normal.

From now on, the third lady's future husband and her life in her husband's family will all depend on the lady's support and consideration.

If the Third Miss continues to be as stubborn as she is now, Madam can use her future husband to threaten her.

If the Third Miss continues to be so disobedient, she can just find someone with extremely poor conditions so that the Sixth Miss can keep her under control.

When she thought of this, Mother Jin became extremely curious. Will the Third Miss still be able to jump around when the time comes? She might have to pay respects every day and try to please the Madam and put on a smiling face.

Although Mother An did not explain what she was thinking, the pride on her face had already exposed what she was thinking.

Restricted by her family's background, Mrs. An had limited knowledge, and the maids and old women around her were not capable either.

Even though it seems that An is now the one holding all the power in the Duke's Mansion and is very powerful, the key matters in the Duke's Mansion are still decided by the Old Lady and the Duke.

The Duke and the Old Madam have high hopes for the Second Miss's future husband. This is known to all the Duke's offices across the country. However, as for the Third Miss, the Duke and the Old Madam will not let them do whatever they want with her.

Not to mention the support behind the young lady now, in the eyes of the Duke and the old lady, the third young lady is Mr. Yang's apprentice and Bai Yuxin's junior sister, and has a very good reputation in the capital.

If the Duke's Mansion is willing, they will definitely find a good family for the Third Miss and she will become a great help to the Duke's Mansion.

"Madam Zhu, Madam has something important to tell Miss Third. I hope Miss Third will go to the main house immediately to listen to the instructions without delay."

Mother Jin's tone and attitude are really arrogant!

The noise in the yard woke up all the maids and servants in Linhu Courtyard.

At this moment, everyone gathered in the yard, watching every move of Mother Jin and others.

"Mother Jin, Miss Third has been feeling a little unwell since she came to the manor. Doctor Bai especially reminded her to have a good rest when she returned home this time. The medicine he prescribed also has some calming effect.

Last night, the young lady felt very uncomfortable and did not fall asleep until dawn.

Fortunately, Doctor Bai had already reported to the old lady and told her about the young lady's current condition.

The old lady also said that the young lady should just rest in the courtyard and recuperate for the next few days, and there is no need to go out to pay respects. "

Everything that Nanny Zhu said is true.

Yang Qi is not a person who has practiced martial arts since childhood. His physical condition is just good and he is healthy, slightly better than the average level.

During this trip to Xihu, Yang Qi kept his mind and body tense at all times, so naturally his physical strength and condition were a little bit behind.

After returning home, Yang Qi specially asked Doctor Bai to check his pulse and asked Nanny Zhu to inform the old lady about it.

Hearing what Madam Zhu said, Mother Jin showed a hint of sarcasm on her face: "Madam Zhu, Madam has already woken up and is waiting for the Third Miss.

Do you think it's okay for Miss San not to show up at this time?"

In Jin's mother's eyes, Yang Qi's current behavior was just a deliberate attempt to take advantage of others. Even if Yang Qi was really ill, the Third Miss would have to go and tell the Madam in person.
