The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 746 The best friend of the reborn daughter of the Duke's Mansion (5)

Afterwards, Hong Juan went back and forth on this road several times but still didn't meet the Third Prince. She felt a little frustrated. When she returned to her room, it was already night.

"Hongjuan, you're back!" Qing'e, who lived in the same room with me, saw Hongjuan as soon as she came into the room after finishing her work.

Hongjuan just glanced at the other person and started to crawl onto the bed without saying anything.

Seeing her like this, Qing'e thought that she was a little tired from taking care of her sister-in-law who was in confinement, so she didn't say much.

But no matter how tired she was, she couldn't neglect her work as a maid.

"Since you're back, you should still do the work for the young lady tomorrow morning!" Qing'e reminded, "Remember to get up early. The young lady has been a little different lately. Don't..."

"I know, I know." Hong Juan said impatiently, "Everyone is so long-winded. You can do anything else with that time."

Qing'e wanted to say a few more words when she heard someone outside calling, "Sister Qing'e, are you there?"

Hearing the voice, Qing'e walked out, opened the door and saw that it was her servant girl. She was about to let the person in.

I heard Hongjuan muttering, "They let all kinds of people in here. It's so dirty!"

The sound was neither loud nor soft, but Qing'e and the maid outside heard it. She lowered her head in inferiority.

Qing'e was a little unhappy. She didn't offend Hongjuan. They were all maids in the young lady's room. Who was more noble than the other? Who was she using as a punching bag?

"Hongjuan, you came back from outside and lay down on the bed without washing." Qing'e's tone was a little cold, "I have never disliked you, what qualifications do you have to dislike others?"

These words really hit the nail on the head for Hongjuan. She had been wandering around the "main roads" of the mansion all day, but had not met the person she wanted to see and was also covered in sweat. She originally wanted to take a shower, but was too tired, so she thought of taking a rest first before going.

But Qing'e exposed the matter so blatantly in front of the servant girl. Hongjuan's annoyance reached its peak in an instant. She couldn't help but want to get angry with her, but she was also afraid that she would make things difficult for her in the future.

He could only grit his teeth and get out of bed again, pick up his toiletries from the shelf beside him and said, "Okay, okay, I'll make room for you, I'll go wash up, okay!"

As soon as the door opened, Hongjuan walked out. When she passed by the servant girl, she did not forget to glare at her.

"Don't bother with her, she is just like that!" Qing'e invited the person into the house and said, "What's the matter with you?"

After the maid came in, she first closed the door, then walked to Qing'e and told her what she had seen today.

It turned out that Hongjuan thought she had hidden her thoughts very well, but several girls in the yard knew what she was thinking.

And this servant girl was one of them. Today, she saw Hongjuan had already returned home, and she also saw her looking for someone all over the world.

"Sister Qing'e, you said this matter..." The maid was eager to try, as if she would tell the young lady if Qing'e agreed.

Qing'e actually saw what Hongjuan was thinking, but since the young lady didn't mention it, she didn't want to say anything.

After all, Hongjuan's family members are relatively respected people in the mansion, and if she is not careful, she might be accused of false accusation.

"Don't make this public for now." Qing'e quickly suppressed the maid's thoughts, "If you don't kill the snake, there will be endless troubles. We should still take a long-term view."

The maid nodded, indicating that she would listen to Sister Qing'e in everything.

But no one knew that this "opportunity" would come so quickly.

It turned out that Hongjuan was supposed to help Su Xiangran get up and wash up the next day, but she had been lazy at home during this period of time, and she fell asleep very late yesterday because she was feeling depressed.

Therefore, when she woke up, she had already missed the time to go to Su Xiangran's room.

Under normal circumstances, Qing'e would still call her, but after what happened yesterday, Qing'e had other ideas. Since they were both maids, why not find someone who was easy to get along with and listened to her!

Hongjuan got up in a panic and walked towards Su Xiangran's room, but when she arrived, Su Xiangran was already sitting at the dining table having breakfast.

The most important thing is that her mother, Mrs. Wu, was standing aside at this moment, with a little panic on her face.

"Mother, what are you doing..." Hongjuan broke a taboo with her first sentence - as the young lady's maid, she got up late. Instead of admitting her guilt and bowing, she called her mother first?

Qing'e was excited, but she said with fear and trepidation: "Hongjuan, the young lady is still here! What are you shouting for?"

It was originally a normal sentence, but after Qing'e's explanation it became "shout"!

Su Xiangran glanced at Qing'e beside her and felt that this maid was quite good at reading people's expressions.

"Madam Wu, this kitchen has been getting more and more perfunctory lately!" Su Xiangran did not mention Hong Juan first, but began to criticize Madam Wu, "You are so generous that you can send such things to me!"
