Qingyu and Hong Chou were in charge of Xie Qin’s different affairs in the front yard and wanted to tell Yin Mingyu, but Yin Mingyu was not interested in listening, but in order to look at them in a fair way, she made a listening attitude.

Jin’er and Yin’er knew her best, standing at her side, exchanging clear eyes while others were not paying attention, and then they also focused on Qingyu and Hong Chou.

What they said was all about Xie Qin. Xie Qin rose in the period between 3am and 5am every day and slept in the period between 9pm and 11pm. Xie Qin liked to eat lightly. Xie Qin was busy with his official duties and read books every day……

Yin Mingyu listened to “Xie Qin” and looked at the two. While she hoped they would stop talking, they still had more to say.

“You’ve already paid respect. It’s hard to leave the front yard for too long, so go back.” She paused and said thoughtlessly, “Please come again next time.”

They respectfully answered “yes”, saluted and left the east courtyard with several women and maidservants waiting in the front courtyard.

Yin Mingyu went to work again, and then said to Xi Lan, “You have always been considerate and meticulous. I can’t rest more assured of you. You will continue to take charge of the East Yard and report to me every ten days.”

“Alright.” Xi Lan agrees, and quickly glances over Yin Mingyu and her left and right Jin’er Yin’er, trying to judge whether they are sincere, but fails to see the strange emotions from their looks.

When Yin Mingyu said, “Don’t worry”, she stopped talking about stewardship. After a turn of thought, she asked in small talk, “The eldest sister is the most virtuous, and everyone in Xie’s family should be praised, right?”

Xi Lan’s mind was full of worries as she was the step room. She thought about how to answer it more appropriately, Shi Liu opened her mouth.

“The Eldest Lady has both talent and virtue. The eastern courtyard does not say everything is proper. She also devotes herself to serving the old lady and the madam. She salutes them in the morning and evening. She serves two meals with no fake hands. She also sews clothes and makes soup for the old lady and madam.”

“Not only is there no saying in the mansion, but there is also a regular porridge shed outside the mansion to do good deeds. It is also polite and generous to make friends with each family’s madams, not to give up the name of the Yin family, and has won many praises. It is the good wife of the Langjun.”

Her proud tone taught Yin Mingyu to be quite speechless.

No wonder the elders of the Xie Family had a strange attitude in the morning. With such a sister as the original wife, she was really a little pale in comparison.

But…… is it worth it?

The needle and thread she gave to her in the morning when she confessed to her husband, she only did a few hand stitches, and Han Shi, her mother, didn’t say anything.

Those rules, Xie’s family always said to her like this. They must be more gentle to the eldest lady. The elder sister is so…… so…… filial and virtuous……Yin Mingyu can’t say enough.

She is determined not to do it, nor will she do it.It seems that the Xie family suffered a great loss when the Di elder sister died and married her instead.

Shi Liu was shocked when she saw Yin Mingyu’s master and servant, and her eyes were full of complacency.

Xi Lan looked at her and reminded her that “enough is enough”. Shi Liu turned a blind eye and said, “Second lady, the eldest lady thought she could not serve husband during pregnancy. She specially arranged a concubine for Langjun, which is called Zhu Cao. When can she come to pay her respects to you?”

Yin Mingyu listened to her words, thought for a moment, and asked, “The Langjun…… gladly accept?”

Shi Liu was silent. After a moment, she said stubbornly, “The Eldest lady is reasonable, and naturally she should think for the Langjun first.”

In and out of her words, she is a model of a wife, and even shows that Yin Mingyu is not as upright as the Eldest lady.

Yin Mingyu: “……”It’s good to be a man because his wife follows three principles and four virtues, has children, and also takes the initiative to arrange housing.

Xi Lan didn’t notice for a moment, so she let Shi Liu talk so much, worried about offending Yin Mingyu, and said, “Young madam, you can ask your servant about everything in the East Yard at any time, and she must know everything.”

Yin Mingyu waved her hand and asked them to go out. “Don’t bother me when you have nothing to do.”

Xi Lan and Shi Liu bowed out. As soon as they reached a secluded place, Xi Lan scolded: “What did you say in front of the Young Madam? If the Young Madam pursued it, who could protect you?”

Shi Liu was still angry. “If the eldest lady had not died early, how could it have been her turn to take advantage of the eldest lady?”

Xi Lan poked her forehead, “But the eldest lady has already left!”

Shi Liu shed tears.
