Unforgettable Emperor's Favor - Chapter 58 Part 2

58. Oriole (2)

Yu Qingjia was told that the slave trader was already waiting for them right after she had breakfast.

She wiped her hands clean and was about to get up, not realizing that Murong Yan, who was usually very detached, would also follow her and stand up.

Yu Qingjia looked at him in astonishment, Murong Yan glanced at her lightly, then asked in a casual tone,

“What?”

“Nothing.”

Yu Qingjia shook her head,

“I just couldn’t imagine that you would be so enthusiastic.”

Murong Yan naturally put on a curtain hat again, and went out.

When the two of them reached the hallway, before they could even enter, an impatient shout suddenly came from behind them,

“Wait!”

Yu Qingya hurried over, very rudely squeezed past Yu Qingjia and Murong Yan, and said,

“I happen to be short of maids as well, I’m the eldest sister, so I should pick first right?”

Although Yu Qingya was asking a question, she did not intend to listen to Yu Qingjia’s answer, and without even waiting for her to respond, she hurriedly looked around the courtyard as if she was looking for someone.

Yu Qingjia’s eyelids suddenly twitched.

She immediately understood what Yu Qingya was trying to do.

Not to mention that she had intercepted the accountant by any means necessary last time, but now she even wanted to come and rob Yu Qingjia’s future maid?

Thanks to Yu Qingya’s actions, Yu Qingjia realized that she probably bought a good maid around this time before, and that maid was also extremely competent.

Yu Qingjia was very unhappy.

She doesn’t like it when people force her to do something she doesn’t like, and Yu Qingya’s attitude was also displeasing her.

Yu Qingjia’s expression grew dim, but she didn’t want to make a scene, and let outsiders see the jokes.

Yu Qingjia was so angry that she suddenly turned around, her eyes widened accusingly.

She grabbed Murong Yan’s sleeves aggrievedly, and said,

“Look at her!”

The tone of her complaint was so natural, the person wearing the curtain hat reached out a jade-like hand, then gently pressed Yu Qingjia’s hand back,

“It’s okay, you go and look again.”

‘Was it really okay?’

Yu Qingjia turned her head suspiciously, just in time to see Yu Qingya pointing at someone happily and said,

“You over there, come with me.”

Based on Yu Qingya’s tone, it was obvious that she had already found that capable maid beside Yu Qingjia in her previous life.

Yu Qingya took the lead in buying Bai Lu, the capable maid who had followed Yu Qingjia for many years in the future, and even accompanied her to marry into the royal family.

Bai Lu was bold and meticulous, and was Yu Qingjia’s most heavily used right hand man in her previous life.

Although Yu Qingjia still trusts Bai Zhi and the others, some important things have been handed over to Bai Lu.

Yu Qingya had always been so indignant in her previous life.

‘Why had she not been able to train such a capable maid after so many years of raising so many of them?’

‘How could Yu Qingya just casually buy one from the hands of a slave trader, and accidentally pick up a treasure?’

Yu Qingya was unable to accept what happened in her previous life, and she was reborn for so long in this life that she had forgotten about this important information.

If she had not met Zhang Xian yesterday she wouldn’t have remembered that it was this time in her previous life that Yu Qingjia bought Bai Lu from outside the mansion.

After Yu Qingya realized this, she immediately rushed here in a flurry of wind to snatch the maid.

It was good that she was the one to take the lead, after recognizing Bai Lu’s face in the crowd, she opened her mouth to buy her.

After Bai Lu was chosen, she seemed stunned by such a huge surprise, and woodenly followed behind Yu Qingya.

Yu Qingya was acting high and mighty, deliberately leading the way to show off in front of her sister,

“Sixth sister, it’s really unfortunate that I’ve already picked the best one among the maids. They’re all too plain, except for this one, I think the others are all stupid. Oops!”

Yu Qingya covered her lips as if she had spoken out of turn.

Her eyes were wide open, her tone as pompous as it could be,

“I didn’t mean it like that, Sixth Sister, you take your time to pick. I’m sure you’ll definitely be able to pick a good one!”

Yu Qingjia didn’t even want to spare a single glance at her.

Yu Qingya was very pleased with herself and scowled at Yu Qingjia as she walked by,

“Sixth sister pick slowly, I’ll leave first.”

Bai Lu followed behind Yu Qingya with fear and trepidation.

She also had an apprehensive look of a country village girl who has reached heaven in a single step.

Bai Lu walked out along with Yu Qingya, and she seemed to dart a glance in Yu Qingjia’s direction when she passed by her way.

After they walked away, Yu Qingjia turned to Murong Yan and said,

“That’s all you have to say. That it’s okay?”

“Why are you spouting so much nonsense?”

Murong Yan reached out his hand and flicked Yu Qingjia’s forehead,

“Be patient.”

Yu Qingjia deeply felt that she was deceived by Murong Yan, and now she still had to be hit by him.

She felt very aggrieved inside.

However, since she was here, she definitely needed to recruit more people, the young maidservants for selection stood neatly in two rows, quietly allowing people to judge them.

Yu Qingjia slowly passed through the rows of people, and found that one of them had decent features, neat clothes, and hadn’t looked around since entering the door.

She also had a calm demeanor.

Among the women, Yu Qingjia was only satisfied with this one, so she stopped in front of the other party and asked,

“What is your name and how old are you this year?”

“This slave is seventeen years old this year, I was sold by my aunt and uncle, and I have no name. Young Miss, please give me a name.”

Yu Qingjia briefly learned about the woman’s history and origin, seeing that there was nothing suspicious about it, she asked,

“Then are you willing to follow me?”

The woman immediately knelt down and kowtowed,

“It is this slave’s honor to do so!”

The maids beside her all casted envious and jealous gazes.

The Yu family is a famous family in Gaoping county, to be able to stay in the Yu family as a servant, made the other maids all felt that they could all fly up like birds in the sky.

Especially if they could follow a mistress who is as amiable and beautiful as Miss Yu.

Yu Qingjia saw the embroidery on the corner of the woman’s clothes and said,

“You have embroidered hibiscus on your clothes, it just so happens that the maids around me all start with the name Bai, so I will call you Bai Rong.”

Bai Rong kowtowed and thanked her for the favor.

Bai Rong walked out while bowing her head, then followed behind Yu Qingjia with small mincing steps.

After she stood firmly, she raised her eyes in small increments to look at the person wearing a curtain hat in front of her.

Bai Rong recalled that while they were standing in a row just now, she and Bai Lu wordlessly exchanged a shocked expression after hearing Yu Qingya choosing her.

Bai Rong and Bai Lu have different family backgrounds, ages, and experiences.

They come from different places, and they should have been completely unfamiliar to each other until today.

But in fact, when Bai Rong and Bai Lu exchanged glances earlier, they had a tacit understanding.

Bai Rong remembered the instructions in the secret order,

?The two of you will come in together, and if there are any changes, then one of you will leave and the other will stay.?

Bai Rong and Bai Lu were confused when they first received this secret order.

‘What does the young master mean by this?’

‘What does having any changes mean?’

But today, when everything happened, Bai Rong came to a realization, and it was logical.

It turns out that this is the case.

It seems that the young master had long expected it.

Bai Rong followed behind Yu Qingjia, her head hung low, but her spine was taut and straight.

This was not because she was disrespectful to her new mistress, but because she was nervous.

After all, Murong Yan, the legendary young master, and prince of Langya, was standing two steps away from her wearing a curtain hat.
