“My lady, I saw Aunty Hai Lan in the kitchen today.” Yu Chun came in with a food basket. She put the food basket on the table with a smile and took out the breakfast from the inside.

The breakfast that Qu Moying had in the morning was very simple. It was just simple porridge and pickled vegetables.

Both Ji Hanyue and Qu Moying liked to have some pickled vegetables in the morning. The crispy cucumber was a must. This time, Yu Chun also brought some.

“My lady, these pickled cucumbers have newly arrived. I don’t know if they suit your taste, but the kitchen specifically told me to ask for your comment.” Yu Chun smiled and looked at Qu Moying who came over and sat down. She handed the rice porridge in her hand to Qu Moying.

Qu Moying took the bowl, looked at the rice porridge, tasted it, and picked up a small piece of crispy cucumber. She immediately nodded, “Not bad. This one is actually better than the one from last time.”

“That’s good. Previously, I said that it was good. If it was not delicious, it was my responsibility.”

“What?”

“It’s just that the ones from before are almost gone. There are only some bottom ones left. I feel they would be more salty than usual. So I was afraid that you would not like the taste, so I asked the kitchen to get a new jar. However, the people in the kitchen did not know if you would like the new ones. Nor did I.”

Yu Chun smiled and took out the other dishes and placed them in front of Qu Moying one by one.

“Why were they used up so fast? Didn’t you say that the kitchen opened one jar only a few days ago?” Qu Moying asked casually. A few days ago, Yu Chun told her that the kitchen had just changed a new jar of pickled cucumbers. Why did they open a new jar in just a few days?

The Old Lady was old and did not like this kind of pickled cucumber, which was hard to bite for her.

“I asked the same thing. They said that it was Madam who took them away. They said that Madam’s health was not good and her appetite was worse. She could not eat anything, so she could only eat some pickled vegetables. Not only pickled cucumbers, but she also has been eating a lot of other pickled vegetables recently. Many new pickled vegetables have been bought by the kitchen.”

Yu Chun reported.

The last time she saw Yu, her body was already so bad and she was still taking medicine. Many medicines and pickled vegetables were actually in conflict. Didn’t Yu know?

“Did Aunty Hai Lan come over to get them?” Qu Moying asked.

“Yes, I heard that Aunty Hai Lan specially came over to pick them. Madam has been grounded. Before, no one from Madam’s yard was allowed to come out. But after a few days, Aunty Hai Lan came out. I heard that it was the Lord’s order for Aunty Hai Lan to come and take Madam’s meals. He was afraid that what Madam ate would be in conflict with the medicine she takes. Aunty Hai Lan knows best what medicine Madam takes.”

Yu Chun said indifferently.

Qu Moying took a few more mouthfuls of porridge, ate a little pickled cucumber, and then put down the bowl and chopsticks. She gently pressed the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and said, “I’m full!”

Yu Chun swiftly cleaned up the table and went down. Just as she was about to take the stuff to the wing room, she saw the door curtain was lifted and Granny Miao walked in. She called out to Granny Miao. After that, Yu Chun retreated outside the room.

“My lady, the old maid that Third Lady values the most now is called Granny Qing. She went out early this morning.” As soon as Granny Miao entered, she reported the news she had just heard to Qu Moying.

“Where is Qu Qiuyan?”

“I heard that she is copying Lessons for Women in her yard now, and she didn’t make a fuss. However, I heard that the Second Master went to Third Lady’s yard last night,” Granny Miao said.

Qu Zhizhen’s whereabouts could not be concealed. There were many people who saw him, especially since Qu Qiuyan angered the Old Lady yesterday. Many servants were waiting to see Qu Zhizhen’s attitude about this matter.

“Not making a fuss, huh?”

“I heard that they talked for a long time when the Second Master was there yesterday, but no one heard the sound of the Second Master scolding her. It should be a nice and patient talk with Third Lady. I didn’t expect him to be so patient with Third Lady.” Granny Miao said, but she felt more and more that Qu Zhizhen was biased. They were both daughters, what did he treat her Lady this way and Third Lady another way?

It was obvious that he treated them differently.

Master treated the two of them as if the Third Lady was the biological daughter, whereas the Fourth Lady was adopted. She had been left aside and ignored for so many years. No matter how much Yu acted against Fourth Lady, he did not say a word. Granny Miao did not believe that Qu Zhizhen did not know anything about what Yu did. She had seen Qu Zhizhen a few times, and from whichever perspective, he did not seem to be stupid.

It could even be said that Qu Zhizhen looked smarter than ordinary people. He managed the mansion well, not just the outer yard, but also the inner yard. Wasn’t Yu’s matter an example?

When it was exposed that Yu wanted to frame the daughter born by his ex-wife and Yu even acted in an extremely disrespectful manner to Crown Princess at her funeral, he could still protect Yu and prevent Yu’s two children from being affected, except being reprimanded a little himself. Granny Miao really felt that this Mr. Vice Minister was too smart.

“My lady…” Granny Miao wanted to remind Qu Moying to be careful of this Mr. Vice Minister, but when she opened her mouth, she felt that she couldn’t say anything. No matter what, she couldn’t ask a daughter to be on guard against her biological father!

“Granny Miao, continue to pay attention to this old maid and see what she wants to do!” Qu Moying said thoughtfully. Her finger gently pressed on the corner of the table.

This old maid was somewhat suspicious.

“I know. If there is anything, I will immediately report it to you,” Granny Miao said.

Qu Moying nodded and asked, “Are the clothes and accessories I needed at Duke Qi’s Mansion’s banquet ready?”

This matter had been handled by Granny Miao before, and Granny Miao was responsible for contacting the embroidery workshop. From the clothes that had been made before, Qu Moying chose one set that suited the scene and asked the embroidery workshop to add some matching patterns to the clothes. It should be almost done.

“My lady, the embroidery workshop said that it will be done in two days. I will go and urge them again later. No matter how, they can’t keep you waiting.”

A trace of anger appeared on Granny Miao’s face.

Seeing Granny Miao’s appearance, Qu Moying knew that something was going on. She immediately asked, “What’s wrong? The clothes have been taken away for several days. Why haven’t they been ready yet? Has the embroidery workshop been very busy lately?”

When she was Ji Hanyue, she had been in charge of things in the Ji Family. She knew that at this time, the embroidery workshop’s progress should be very fast. The Ji Family had many banquets to attend, especially Ji Hanyue. Every time she went out, she had to change into new clothes. They could not afford to let the future Crown Princess lose face. If the embroidery workshop was not fast enough, they could not finish their tasks on time at all.

Was Qu Mansion’s embroidery workshop’s efficiency so low?

“Yes, the embroidery workshop has been busy. People there said that they were making clothes for Madam. I heard that it was ordered by the doctor. He said that Madam had to wear light and loose clothes. Such clothes were better for people who are ill for a long time and can’t get out of bed. If they don’t wear light clothes, it is inconvenient for them to move.” Granny Miao said angrily, “The embroidery workshop caused so much harm to you, but the people there were only punished for a few days.”

“When did this happen?” Qu Moying’s heart skipped a beat.

“In the past few days. It’s just that they didn’t mention it before. When I took your clothes over, the embroidery workshop didn’t say anything. They only said that this time, we would have to wait for a while. Because they wouldn’t dare to neglect the Second Master’s orders. What did they mean? It was clear that the embroidery workshop’s people stood on Madam’s side. They did it on purpose.”

Previously, the manager of the embroidery workshop and Yu collaborated to frame Qu Moying once. After that, the manager was dismissed, but the people below were not changed.

Compared with Qu Moying, these people would definitely identify more with Yu. After all, it was Yu who had been supervising them for so many years. Even if Yu was in a disadvantageous situation now, weren’t there still Second Young Master and Third Lady? Who knew when Madam would be released again?

What matters had happened recently that alarmed Qu Zhizhen and even caused him to make concessions? Qu Moying’s heart inexplicably skipped a beat. Yu didn’t have a good appetite, she liked pickled cucumbers, and she needed light and loose clothes… There seemed to be an answer. However, this matter was really a bit incredible…

Seeing Qu Moying lower her head and remain silent, Granny Miao thought that Qu Moying was sad. She hurriedly advised, “My lady, don’t be sad. Now that Yu has fallen into this state, so what if the Second Master cares about her? Back then, she was disrespectful to you in front of the Crown Princess’ coffin. This kind of thing can’t be decided by the Second Master alone. Even the palace had reprimanded her.”

Although this matter was suppressed in the end, Yu still became “famous”. Moreover, the news was even spread to the Emperor. If there was no order from the palace in the future, it would not be so easy for Yu to restore her former glory. The royal family was unwilling to pardon her. Just based on this point, Qu Zhizhen could not do whatever he wanted to do. At most, he could try to make things easier for Yu in the mansion.

“Granny Miao, has the doctor been changed recently?” Qu Moying suddenly asked.

“This… I don’t know yet. I’ll go check it out later,” Granny Miao said.

After pondering for a moment, Qu Moying suddenly shook her head. “There’s no need to check it out. The doctor must have been changed.”

“How did you know?” Granny Miao was very surprised.

“The doctor and the female doctor from that time would definitely not be able to enter the mansion again. Therefore, they must be changed. Yu was really good at scheming at that time. No matter what happened at that time, the doctor must not be used anymore. She could even let this doctor say something else.”

Qu Moying sneered. Her eyes looked unfathomable. These things were really a good idea now that they were considered as a whole. Moreover, it was an excellent idea.

It could be seen how unwilling Yu was…

“My lady, what do you mean? I don’t understand.” Granny Miao really didn’t understand. After being stunned for a moment, she asked bluntly.

“Yu is pregnant!” Qu Moying said with certainty.

“What? How… how is this possible?” Granny Miao was stunned for a moment before she subconsciously retorted.

“Why is it impossible?” Qu Moying smiled slightly. Her eyes slowly calmed down, but there was a bigger wave in her heart. It was a coincidence. It was really a coincidence. It was such a coincidence that it was hard to believe that Yu had always been so lucky.

Yu was really lucky. Back then, after she had an affair with Qu Zhizhen, she was pregnant with Qu Qiuyan and Qu Mingcheng. After that, she relied on the babies in her belly to force the Old Lady to allow her to enter Qu Mansion with the title of “decent concubine”. This also paved the way for her to ascend to the position of the legitimate wife.

What about now? It was such a coincidence that she became pregnant at such a juncture. Qu Zhizhen only had one son and one daughter before, who were both born by Yu. If Yu had another son, her position would be even more secure…

“My lady, this is impossible!”
