Yuping was very angry. Take care?

For so long, Hongying has never taken care of the young lady except for being sneaky.

Instead, he served as Qin's spy at all times, reporting on the young lady's movements.

Shen Shuyi put down the medicine bowl, and the bottom of the bowl hit the low table with a slight "bang" sound.

Hongying subconsciously looked at Shen Shuyi and was stunned.

The girl's face was extremely pale, but even though she had been training in the temple for several years, she was still a beauty.

The beautiful and elegant face carries a sense of alienation and coldness.

And the most amazing thing about her is her eyes, which are like clear autumn water, moist and transparent. Looking at them again, you can feel that the deep of the pupils are engraved with a deep charm, which seduces you to fall and forces you to retreat from all the colorful things.

At that moment, all the stunning beauty and face as bright as spring no longer mattered... one just couldn't help but want to drown in the gentle waves of those eyes.

"You don't have to chop firewood these days. Anyway, I used the jade pendant to exchange for a week's worth of food with the kitchen."

Shen Shuyi spoke slowly, his pair of cold and bright eyes fell on Hongying and looked her up.

Hongying was wearing a brand new orange jacket and skirt. After living in the Buddhist temple for several years, she looked a little plumper than when she was in the Shen Mansion, like a pampered young lady from a wealthy family.

Mingming's stature is almost the same as Yuping, who is so thin that she is just a skeleton, but she has a rosy face and looks more like a master than a lady.

Hongying was stunned for a few seconds and asked in surprise: "Miss, do you still have a jade pendant in your hand?"

Shen Shuyi picked up the teacup and said, "I was wrong before. I just thought that I shouldn't touch the things my mother left me. I made you suffer so much with me for nothing."

Listening to Shen Shuyi's words, Yuping became a little anxious.

When they came from the Shen Mansion, they originally brought some valuables with them, but Hongying was still very dedicated in the first year, pretending to be a loving master and servant.

When they let down their guard against her, Hongying took away all the young lady's belongings.

In the end, seeing that there was no more money to be made from the young lady, Hongying's true colors were completely revealed.

Now that she knows that the young lady still has something in her hand, I wonder what she will think of it...

Hearing this, Hongying's face became more attentive: "It's good that you can think it through. I have advised you a long time ago that you may not be able to return to the Shangshu Mansion. It is better to make plans for yourself as soon as possible!"

Shen Shuyi glanced at her with a half-smile, and Hongying pretended to be intimate and said, "Miss, please don't dislike what I said. Although I am a maid by your side, I have been here with you for four years, so naturally I have feelings for you."

"You also know that Madam Zhang who is beside Madam is my aunt. I have asked her before, and Madam has no intention of taking you back to the mansion."

Shen Shuyi pretended to be disappointed and remained silent for a long time: "Is that so?"

"That's right. Madam is not your biological mother after all. Even if the old lady misses you, if she doesn't want you to go back, she can always find a reason."

"It's not that I don't want to serve you, but you really don't trust me. Before, you were on guard against me because I was someone close to the lady. Later, when something was lost, Yuping suspected me even more. I really have no way to defend myself..."

Looking at Hongying's aggrieved look, which looked as if she was about to cry, Shen Shuyi's almond-shaped eyes became deep.

I have to admit that Hongying is quite clever, and this heart-to-heart talk has made up for her behavior over the past few years.

Unfortunately, after years of indulgence, she became more and more daring, and even dared to make up stories about the masters of the mansion.

Shen Shuyi said gently: "I misunderstood you."

Seeing how easy it was for her to fool, Hongying thought she was stupid: "Don't worry, Miss. As long as you trust me, I will never let you down."

"But you have to listen to my advice. Now that we are in this Buddhist temple, we have to plan for ourselves early. You have to carefully calculate how to spend the things you have. If you trust me, I can help you find a shop to exchange them for silver. It will definitely be more valuable than if you just take them out to make money..."

Shen Shuyi acted hesitant and didn't look completely convinced by what she said.

"Let me think about it again."

Hongying knew that there was no need to rush this matter. After all, she really did not have Shen Shuyi's trust in the past few years.

After saying this, Hongying quickly picked up the dishes and plates in front of her.

"I will return this thing first. The weather is cold recently, so you should take good care of yourself."

Having said that, Hongying hurried away carrying the lunch box and holding an umbrella, but she was thinking in her heart.

She had already looked through the things in this room countless times. If Shen Shuyi still had something in his hand, it must have been hidden somewhere else.

After she left, Yuping couldn't help but say, "Miss, Hongying has been sneaky and cunning, you can't trust her anymore."

Shen Shuyi curled the corners of his lips and said soothingly, "I know what's going on."

Yu Ping was relieved and just said, "I asked someone to exchange the food for me. Would it be a bad idea to ask Hongying to return it now?"

Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "If she goes, we will have better food."

A look of confusion flashed across Yuping's eyes.

why?

Hongying is a person who is lucky enough that she doesn't cheat on her husband. Even if she wants to please the ladies, she will never be willing to spend her own money to support them.

Shen Shuyi saw through her thoughts and said gently, "She is now planning to pawn the things in my hands to make some money, so she will naturally be more attentive."

"But even if she subsidizes our food, the young lady won't believe her." Yuping was puzzled.

Shen Shuyi held an old folding fan, gently tapped her head and said, "Think about it again."

Hearing this, Yuping obediently stepped aside and began to think about it seriously.

Shen Shuyi didn't care about her anymore. The maids around her each had their own merits, but she was too tolerant in her previous life and considered them too carefully, so once they left her, they didn't end up well.

Now, she has figured it out.

She can protect them for a while, but not necessarily for a lifetime.

Instead of worrying about everything for them, it is better to let them stand on their own.

In the evening, Hongying came back with two food boxes without waiting for Yuping to go to the kitchen to get food.

"Miss, dinner is here."

Hongying began to serve the dishes with a smile, as if the estrangement of the past few years had never existed.

Yuping was stunned when she saw the meal which was indeed more sumptuous than the one she had at noon.

But she spent the whole afternoon thinking about the reason and still couldn't figure it out.

"Why are there so many?" Shen Shuyi asked in surprise without changing his expression.

Hongying smiled and said, "How much? The master in charge said it was based on the amount for lunch."

This one sentence made Yuping's face change, and she understood instantly.

Hongying is trying to sow discord between him and the young lady!

She wanted the young lady to think that she had ulterior motives and had eaten the meal secretly, thus making the young lady suspicious of herself, and then she would have the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Only by pawning her gold and silver jewelry could she gain the young lady's trust.

After realizing this, Yu Ping's cheeks flushed with anger: "Nonsense, lunch is obviously not of this size."

Hongying was not annoyed, she smiled and said, "Then I don't know. If you don't believe me, you can ask the manager. After all, he and I don't have much friendship, so he won't look at me differently."
