"I've set her free." Shui Qingyan said indifferently.

"Oh." The Uncle Fu let out a long breath, then said, "Where's Ping Hua, Ping Hua was also someone that Second Aunt had chosen, do you want to just throw away your name?"

"Who said I wanted to touch Ping Hua?" Shui Qingyan could not help but look at Uncle Fu in amusement.

Hearing that, Uncle Fu shook his head and secretly slapped himself in the face. He could only blame himself for saying what he had thought in his heart, "Yes yes yes, since Fourth Young Miss does not want to touch Ping Hua, then this old servant will sell Huang Hua's name."

With Uncle Fu's words, the green plum fell into the room.

Uncle Fu was shocked, Yu Niang was also scared.

However, Yu Niang had seen Qing Mei before and could only sigh in relief, as long as the person who came was not a thief. Uncle Fu was someone who had seen a scene before, so seeing him heave a sigh of relief, he did not say anything. He only raised his head to look at Qing Mei out of curiosity.

Uncle Fu knew that there was a secret guard left behind by a Second Young Master at Shui Qingyan's side protecting him, but he had never seen him before.

Qing Mei took out a piece of paper from her chest pocket and handed it over to Shui Qingyan: "Miss, this is the indenture contract that you wanted."

"Oh, it's good as long as Yu Niang keeps it." Shui Qingyan nodded.

"Miss, don't you want to register?" Yu Niang took the indenture contract and saw Feng Yuqin's name written on it.

"She's not one of my Shui’s Marion, why would she register?" Shui Qingyan could not help but laugh, "If Uncle Fu felt that there was no one in the courtyard, he would upgrade Wuhua to a first class maid and transfer him to a room. Does Uncle Fu have any objections?"

"This old servant has no objections, as long as Fourth Miss feels that it's appropriate." The Uncle Fu was a smart person, he knew that Shui Qingyan was currently in charge of the Shui’s Marion and even if he truly felt that it was inappropriate, he wouldn't say anything about it.

Wuhua's indenture contract will be given to the Yu Niang to keep. From then on, only these three people will be able to enter the Yi'an Yard. " Shui Qingyan said as she nodded her head, "The changes in my courtyard do not have to affect the situation in the other courtyards, I like the peace and quiet right now."

According to the rules of the Shui’s Marion, there were at least two first class maids and two second class maids by the side of the first wife. As for the servants or the kitchen, they could be bought themselves.

Right now, there were only three people in Shui Qingyan's courtyard, so logically speaking, a concubine's courtyard could only fit one or two people, and since Shui Qingyan's words did not affect the situation in the other courtyards, the Uncle Fu did not have to worry about arranging new personnel.

"Yes." The Uncle Fu nodded.

"Also, during this period of time, the Emperor ordered me to be grounded. If anyone dares to come to the Yi'an Yard and urge me to leave, I will have to be conceited of the consequences." Shui Qingyan couldn't help but smile.

"Yes." Uncle Fu wiped the sweat off his forehead. If Fourth Miss had someone come to the Yi'an Yard during this period when she was grounded, regardless of whether that person had urged Fourth Miss to go out or not, if Fourth Miss had framed someone, it would be hard to refute.

He wanted to tell everyone not to come to Fourth Miss's yard when they had nothing to do to prevent themselves from being dragged away by Fourth Miss as a cushion.

"It's fine, I'll have to trouble Uncle Fu to report the situation here to Aunt Erzu." Shui Qingyan smiled and nodded.

"Yes, it's alright. This old servant will take his leave now." After exiting the Yi'an Yard, Uncle Fu brought along the namelist and walked towards the Chang Le Yard.

After Uncle Fu left, Shui Qingyan said to Qingmei: "Tonight, we will go to Zhang Mansion. During this period of time, big sister Qingmei will be busy."

Qingmei frowned. It was not because Shui Qingyan had said that she needed to get busy, but because of the words' big sister Qingmei '.

"Miss, are you leaving tonight?" Yu Niang was in a hurry.

"Yes." Shui Qingyan nodded, "I asked you to marry me and see second sister's reaction. How did you see it?"

Only then did Yu Niang react. She was only in a hurry to tell Second Miss Shui Qingyan that she knew about the situation with Yi'an Yard, but she forgot about the situation that Shui Qingyan wanted to know about.

Immediately, Yu Niang said: "Miss, when I went to the garden, Second Miss was giving the bottle of Spiritual Jade Paste to Doctor Little Zhao with her head lowered. Looking at Doctor Little Zhao's forehead, it seems like she was afraid that Second Miss would regret it."

"Oh?" Shui Qingyan raised her eyebrows.

"This servant was only thinking about Miss' dizziness and also thought about telling Miss that someone might be secretly watching our courtyard, so I forgot to take a look at Second Miss' expression." Yu Niang said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Oh." Shui Qingyan nodded.

"However, when Second Miss called out to me, I vaguely felt that Second Miss' face was much redder than usual. I don't know if it's because there's too much rouge." The Yu Niang said as if he was deep in thought.

Shui Qingyan smiled slightly: "Interesting."

Shui Qingyuan was very strict with him, and she always strictly ordered him to do things when she spoke, thus she had a bit of an aura about her. Furthermore, her eyesight had always been high on top. She wouldn't care too much if it didn't enter her eyes. If she couldn't reach it, she wouldn't even think about it. But now, Shui Qingyuan actually agreed to make a trip for Doctor Little Zhao's Yi'an Yard. This caused Shui Qingyan to be unable to help herself from thinking a little more.

"Miss, Yu Niang will call Ping Hua and Wuhua in right away." Seeing Shui Qingyan meditating alone, the Yu Niang went out.

After Ping Hua and Wuhua entered the door, one of them bowed to Shui Qingyan.

Ping Hua: "Greetings Miss."

Wuhua: "Greetings Miss."

Shui Qingyan returned back to her senses and nodded, "Everyone, get up. In the future, you don't have to bow to me in your own courtyard. "

Ping Hua nodded: "Yes."

Wuhua also nervously nodded. "Yes." When she found out that she had been promoted to a first-rate maid, she was both happy and scared. After all, the one serving her was the ruthless Fourth Miss.

"The two of you should know that I'm grounded." Shui Qingyan said.

Ping Hua and Wuhua nodded.

"I'm going to my big sister's home to play for a while. You guys cover for me at home. If anything goes wrong, you have to bear the consequences." Shui Qingyan slowly said.

"Yes." Ping Hua nodded.

Wuhua saw that Ping Hua nodded, so she nodded too: "Yes."

"Mn, Yi'an Yard has a small number of people. Although you have taken the monthly payment from the head maid, the chores in the courtyard are also yours. Are you willing?" Shui Qingyan asked.

"Yes, yes." Wuhua immediately said. The moment she said those words, Wuhua felt that she had moved a little. She looked at Shui Qingyan and Yu Niang, then lowered her head.

The Yu Niang frowned. She must teach Wuhua a good lesson, if she followed the young miss to the palace like that, wouldn't she lose all face for the young miss?

Ping Hua nodded her head: "As Miss wishes."

"After leaving the Yi'an Yard room, you must remember that you are people of my Shui’s Marion. After staying in the Yi'an Yard for one day, you must remember that the benefits to your Yi'an Yard are the greatest." Shui Qingyan began her thought politics class.

"Yes." Ping Hua and the other five Wuhua s nodded together.

"I don't care what you've done, I just want to see the future. If you feel like you can't stay any longer, just tell me and I'll let you go. " Shui Qingyan's tone was calm.

"This servant is willing to follow Miss for the rest of her life." Ping Hua kneeled down, "I beg Miss, please don't chase this servant away."

Wuhua also knelt down on both knees, and immediately kowtowed: "Young miss, my father is still hoping to use my monthly money to get big brother married, I am willing to work for young miss, and beg young miss to not chase me away, I am willing to do anything, crude work, and am willing to do anything."

"If you don't do anything wrong, I naturally won't do anything to you." Looking at their expressions, Shui Qingyan smiled slightly, "Let's go down first. That's all we have to say today. The rules in the courtyard, you guys should properly ask Yu Niang for some advice in the next few days."

"Yes, this servant will take his leave first." Ping Hua saluted, stood up and left.

"This servant will take his leave." Wuhua also saluted before leaving nervously.

After Ping Hua and Wuhua left, Yu Niang asked: "Miss, what about Feng Yuqin's side, what does Miss plan to do?"

"Feng Yuqin?" Shui Qingyan did not understand.

"Feng Yuqin is the name of the daughter born from Assistant Minister and that outer room. fake Huang hua's real name is Feng Yuzhen, she is using Feng Yuqin's name now." Qing Mei explained.

"Oh, there's no need for her to worry. When she understands what she's going to do next, she'll naturally come find me on her own accord." Shui Qingyan laughed.

After the room had quieted down, Qingmei hesitated for a moment before asking, "Miss, there is something that Qingmei wants to talk to you about."

"What happened?" Shui Qingyan raised her eyebrows.

Qing Mei pursed her lips and spoke cautiously: "The Sixth Senior Servant's grave has been moved."

Shui Qingyan slowly stood up from her chair. "Who's the one who has the guts!"

"It's the old master." After Qing Mei finished her sentence, she no longer said anything.

Shui Qingyan squinted, "How do you know about this?"

"At five o'clock today, a black clothed man came to my courtyard. I followed him to his manor." "At first, I didn't know that it was the Prince Chu's manor. It wasn't until I entered the formation and the person who tried my martial arts appeared that I realized it was the Prince Chu's manor."

"Prince Chu Mansion?" When it came to Chu Chen, Shui Qingyan couldn't help but focus twenty percent of her attention. That fellow Chu Chen gave her a very serious sense of danger.

"Yes, he told me to break the formation, but I didn't come out. By the time he let me out, it was already noon. When he let me out, he told me that Master had moved Sixth Senior Servant's grave away, and I did not dare enter the array again, so I directly went outside the city. " Qing Mei told him what had happened that morning.

"I've arrived outside the city, and the grave at the head of the city is indeed gone. Judging from the freshness of the soil, it should have been moved last night. " Qing Mei pursed her lips and said, "But whether it was Master who did it or not, I don't know."

"Whether it is or not, we just need to ask." Shui Qingyan slowly smiled, her smile filled with coldness.
