Her brother said in the letter that although the army had set off, as the commander-in-chief, her brother and father could not leave the camp at will.
She let out a sigh of relief. There were not many people in the world who could make her miss them.
Those two, however, were her first and deepest fetters.
"Yueqi is here tonight. Add more food! You guys, tell the kitchen to prepare the food. It's the Spring Festival. "
Today, the Liuxin Courtyard was filled with songs and laughter.
Lin Mengya was indeed a generous girl. She was so happy that she gave everyone some pocket money.
Several little maids were grinning from ear to ear. Even the old maids who worked in the courtyard were very grateful to the Princess.
Being a servant in the Liuxin Courtyard was a lucrative job.
For a moment, everyone was beaming with joy.
After dinner, Lin Mengya insisted on visiting Baiji's parents.
However, Baiji refused to do so no matter what. She insisted that her family had to come and pay their respects to her master first.
Lin Mengya had no choice but to sit in the room and drink tea.
Baiji's surname was Mu, and her family members were honest tenant farmers.
Usually, when they saw the landlord in the village, they would think that he was from a noble family.
Now that they were in Prince Yu's Mansion, it was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
Along the way, whether it was the winding stone path or the oddly shaped rockery, it was an eye-opener for them.
Originally, Baiji had wanted to show them around the Prince's Mansion, but the two elders had politely declined.
Now that they had the opportunity, they just clicked their tongue in wonder and refused to walk around.
"Dad, mom, this is Master's Liuxin Courtyard. I usually work here as well. "
Baiji introduced it to her parents with a little pride on her face.
Her parents followed her into the courtyard. The square courtyard was richly ornamented, as beautiful as a fairyland.
"Hello, Papa Mu, Aunty Mu. Master is inside. Please come in."
As soon as they entered the door, a beautiful girl with a round face greeted them.
She was dressed like Baiji, but a little younger.
Her attitude was gentle and kind, without the usual bad temper of a servant.
The tension in the hearts of the two elders was slightly relieved. Princess Yu was really a very easy-going master to be able to teach such a good girl.
Baiji and Baizhi led the two elders to the main room.
As soon as he opened the door, there was a faint smell of incense in the room.
On the main seat, there was a stunning woman in a light yellow dress with a faint smile on her face.
She was even more beautiful than the fairies in the paintings.
The two elders immediately knelt down and respectfully paid their respects.
"Greetings to the Princess Consort. May the Princess Consort live for a thousand years."
With reddened faces, the old couple kneeled on the ground, not even daring to raise their heads.
Prince Yu's house was too imposing. Even the floor was made of high-quality red bricks.
Although he was wearing new clothes, he was afraid that he would dirty the ground.
"Please get up. Baiji and Baisu, please take a seat."
A soft voice rang out, as beautiful as the sounds of nature.
Then, in addition to his daughter, there was also a beautiful servant girl. With a gentle smile, she helped the old couple up.
She lowered her head and did not dare to look at Princess Yu, who was sitting on the main seat. She even only sat on one side of the exquisite mahogany chair.
"Have you two gotten used to living here?"
Baiji's parents looked older than their age.
They worked at home all year round. Even though they lived a better life than ordinary people, they still had the simplicity of farmers. The two elders looked sincere and kind. Although they were cautious, they were very well-behaved.
A touch of admiration flashed across Lin Mengya's eyes.
It seemed that she had guessed correctly.
"Yes, I'm used to living here, Your Highness."
Old Mu's father used to be a steward in the farm, so he was well-behaved and did not say much.
It seemed that the two elders of the Mu Family must have taught Baiji a lot to raise a daughter like her.
"You'll get used to it. Now I can't live without Baiji. Although she is young, she is a talent. "
Lin Mengya said kindly. She did not treat Baiji's parents as outsiders.
Baiji blushed when she was praised by her master.
Baisu and Baizhi also came over with two cups of fragrant tea.
A gratified smile appeared on the faces of the two old men.
If Baiji was not sensible and insisted on working to supplement the family's income, they would not have agreed.
They did not expect that the girl was so lucky to meet such a good master.
In the past few days, they heard that Baiji had been appointed as the steward of the courtyard by the servants of the prince's mansion.
It was said that she was in charge of everything in the princess's courtyard.
"It's her good fortune that Your Highness doesn't mind the girl's vulgarity."
Old Mu's father was also a little embarrassed by the princess's praise. They must have relaxed because of everyone's friendly attitude.
They secretly looked around, and it was amazing.
The room was like a fairyland.
Not only was the master beautiful, but even the little childe sitting next to her was as delicate as jade. He was more adorable and amiable than the boy beside Guanyin.
"From now on, we are a family. I suppose Baiji has told them about my request. "
After the small talk, Lin Mengya went straight to the point.
Here, the room was full of her family, so there was nothing to hide.
The two elders of the Mu family must have thought for a long time, and then said carefully,
"Your Highness, we feel honored that you can trust us old bones. However, although I have been in charge of the farm, it was a few years ago. I'm afraid … I'm afraid of delaying your business. "
Lin Mengya had expected that the two elders of the Mu family would refuse.
After thinking for a while, she said gently,
"Don't worry, I don't have much trouble with the affairs of the shop. I just need a considerate person to look after the shop for me. "
Lin Mengya intended to train Baishao and Baiji to be the managers of the pharmacy.
As for the power behind them, she had her own plan.
The two elders of the Mu family thought for a while, and then nodded with difficulty.
If it was just to look after the house, it would not be a problem for them.
"That's good. Tomorrow, I'll send you to have a look. It's just that I'd like to ask the two elders to keep this a secret. "
The two elders immediately nodded. They knew about these things.
In the evening, Baiji went to accompany her parents, and the Liuxin Courtyard, which had been bustling for a day, gradually quieted down.
She did not want to tell Long Tianhao about the matter of the pharmacy.
Recently, she increasingly felt that Long Tianhao was not treating her the way he used to treat her.
There was a tacit understanding between the two of them.
Whether it was in the open or in the dark, Long Tianhao always protected her. But she knew that it was just Long Tianhao's protection for a subordinate, and it had nothing to do with love.
Therefore, although it was painful, she still found a way out for herself. "It's late, but you're still in a good mood, Your Highness."
As the wind blew, a figure wrapped in black appeared beside Lin Mengya.
Under the light, Lin Mengya was reading the book in her hand, as if she was not surprised by the appearance of the figure.
"I can't sleep, so I'm just killing time."
Lin Mengya remained calm and focused on the book.
"You're so brave, Your Highness. Yunzhu admires you. I guess you don't know how much your head is worth in the black market. "
The figure took off his cloak, revealing a face full of wrinkles.
If one were to look closely, one would be able to see that this face was much older than before.
This person was the former top prostitute, and also the golden killer of Peach Blossom Dock, Yunzhu.
"Your poison seems to have worsened."
Without looking back, the radar in Lin Mengya's mind automatically reported the situation of the woman in front of her.
She sighed, turned around, and looked at the woman with her clear eyes.
"Is it worth it?"
Women in the world cared most about their appearance.
The more beautiful a woman was, the more she cared about her appearance.
Yun Zhu was an unparalleled beauty, yet she was willing to give up her beauty for someone else.
Although Lin Mengya did not ask, she could guess a little.
"It's not worth it. Without him, there would only be a sharp sword named Yunzhu in this world. With him, there would be a woman with flesh and blood. "
Lin Mengya shook her head, and took a pill from the table.
"Take it. Although it won't get rid of the poison, it won't worsen. Don't test the poison on your body. If the poison seeps into your brain, even I can't save you. "
Hearing Lin Mengya's words, Yunzhu felt a glimmer of hope.
A glimmer of hope flashed across Yunzhu's eyes.
Recently, she felt that it was increasingly difficult to control her emotions.
If it weren't for her worries, she would have gone crazy long ago.
"Thank you."
After a long time, Yunzhu thanked Lin Mengya.
She took the pill, and did not doubt Lin Mengya at all.
"I'll try my best to do what you need. Also, I want you to manage the secret forces for me. What do you think? "
Lin Mengya felt that Yunzhu was the most suitable candidate.
Yunzhu was born in a brothel, and she was good at doing things. She could do both in the underworld and in the underworld.
It would be troublesome if Qinghu's identity was recognized by others. It was not convenient for her to show herself.
Therefore, Yunzhu was the most suitable candidate.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll betray you?"
A trace of doubt appeared in Yunzhu's eyes.
They had only met twice. How could Lin Mengya trust her so much?
"Qinghu said that your withdrawal almost paralyzed the deployment of Peach Blossom Dock in the capital city. If I don't use such a talent, it'll be a waste. "
Lin Mengya's eyes flickered, and there was only the purest sincerity in them.
Yunzhu was slightly stunned. She stared at Lin Mengya for a long time, and finally gave a faint smile.
"Master, what you said makes sense."
In other words, she had accepted Lin Mengya's offer.
Lin Mengya stretched out her hand, and a bright smile appeared on her face.
"In this case, it's a happy cooperation."
