There were four First-Class maids in Yu Laojun’s courtyard, each of them was in charge of clothes, spices, and storage, and the key to the incense cabinet was in the hands of another maid.
The maid servant put on her coat and braved the cold wind to call the other maid who was in charge of the spices over.
Since the door was opened and closed again, the cold night wind permeated into the room, almost waking up half of the people inside.
After the maid in-charge of the spices hurried over, they finally managed to open the incense cabinet and found the calming incense that Yu Qingjia had mentioned before.
Although Yu Qingjia and the
Two maids tried their best to suppress their voices while looking for the spices, but the sound they made whenever one of them walked around couldn’t be suppressed, so when Yu Qingjia took the incense burner, the two maids hurriedly said,
“We dare not let Sixth Miss do it, it’s better for this servant girl to do it.”
“I am a junior, hence, every time I serve my elders, I have to do it personally. r ead on ly at sal mon la tt e. com This anno ying wa te rmark is n ot th ere.How can I still call it serving the sick when I’m letting the servants do it for me?”r ead on ly at sal mon la tt e. com This anno ying wa te rmark is n ot th ere.
Yu Qingjia’s words were so strong that she insisted on lighting the incense by herself.
Noble families regard incense burning as an elegant art, and it was very popular.
As the daughter of Yu Wenjun, Yu Qingjia’s skill when it comes to burning the incense was actually pretty high, but for some reason it took her a long time to light the incense this time, and she didn’t even let the maids help her.
She tinkled and tossed around the burner for a long time.
She also took a moment to clip the incense pliers, and hit the incense burner, then another moment for sharp copper hooks to scratch the bottom making an echoing sound, although the sound is not very loud, but in the silence of the night, the sound made by the collision of metal alone, is enough for people hearing that sound to become alerted.
Yu Laojun was becoming even more unsettled by the noise they made, it was as if she was asleep, but she could still hear the sound of people talking and walking outside.
However, her limbs seemed to be pinned down by someone, and she could not move a finger even though she tried with all her might.
This phenomenon has a common name— Sleep paralysis or night hag.
Due to Yu Qingjia’s antics, the attention of the two maids were all drawn on her, and no one noticed what was going on inside the bed curtain.
After Yu Qingjia made another sharp sound, she smiled shyly and embarrassedly at the two maidservants and said,
“It’s actually my first time serving the sick, and I’m a little clumsy, I have to learn more from my fourth sister. re ad onl y at sal monla tte. com Th is an noy ing waterm ark is not ther e.Maid sisters wouldn’t hold me accountable for it, won’t you?”re ad onl y at sal monla tte. com Th is an noy ing waterm ark is not ther e.
The ‘Maid Sisters’ in Yu Qingjia’s mouth all showed a helpless smile, and hurriedly denied it.
They finally realized why Yu Qingjia had been stressing about during the day, that she knew nothing and had no elders to teach her about important knowledge, she was actually here waiting for this opportunity.
Yu Qingjia’s smile grew deeper and deeper when she heard the maid’s words, as if she suddenly thought of something, she said,
“Right, fourth sister is here, I can ask my fourth sister! Maid sisters, please go ask my fourth sister on my behalf to teach me how to burn this kind of incense.”
The two maids looked hesitant.
They knew if they were to wake people up in the middle of the night just to ask how to light an incense, their Fourth Miss would be furious.
After seeing that the two maids were not moving, Yu Qingjia simply smiled slightly, and made a gesture to go by herself.
The two maids looked at each other and understood the current situation.
If they let Yu Qingjia go by herself, she might have to make a lot of noise, so it’s better for them to come instead.
One maid went to the inner courtyard to call on Yu Qingya, while the other stayed beside Yu Qingjia to watch her toss and turn.
Yu Qingjia didn’t want to go inside and bear the anger of others, but she also didn’t want to let Yu Qingya have a good time, so she deliberately tossed the incense burner.
Now that her purpose was achieved, Yu Qingjia did not insist on ‘Doing her filial duty’ any further, but handed over the set of incense burning tools to the maid.
The maid was greatly relieved, and while the maid was pouring the incense burner, Yu Qingjia finally took a step back.
However, when she took a step back, she accidentally bumped into one of the shelves and almost knocked over the celadon vase down.
The slender celadon vase swayed, and Yu Qingjia scrambled over to hold it, but a hand caught it before she did.
Murong Yan put the vase down steadily, he lowered his head and glanced at Yu Qingjia, and said softly,
“Be careful. re ad onl y at sal monla tte. com Th is an noy ing waterm ark is not ther e.At least, look at the path when you walk.”re ad onl y at sal monla tte. com Th is an noy ing waterm ark is not ther e.
Yu Qingjia finally felt embarrassed.
Although she had been messing around the entire night, she knew that it was all on purpose.
She’s aware that she was physically inflexible, but she was not so clumsy to this extent.
However, she seriously didn’t see the vase earlier, and if you connect it to what she has been doing earlier, it was as if she was really stupid, and reckless.
The maid was still lighting the incense and didn’t notice what was going on behind her.
Yu Qingjia lowered her voice and said very seriously,
“I was so focused on serving Yu Laojun, and worried about her condition that I didn’t pay attention to what’s happening in my surroundings.”
Murong Yan lowered his eyes and cast a glance at her with a smirk.
Yu Qingjia coughed in embarrassment, when she was talking to him earlier, she was clearly speaking with confidence, but now she couldn’t even find a way to defend herself.
Murong Yan didn’t take her performance seriously, right?
He was already very arrogant, and now he’s even more likely to call her stupid.
Now that there are other people around, Yu Qingjia does not dare to say too much to Murong Yan, after all she can just explain the matter later once they return to their courtyard.
She took advantage of the maid’s inattention and quickly told him,
“It’s not safe for you to leave now. re ad onl y at sal monla tte. com Th is an noy ing waterm ark is not ther e.There’s barely a few people who have seen you arrive, so you can find a place to hide later. r e ad o nly at s a l mon l att e . com Th is ann oyin g watermark is not t he re.After that, I’m afraid I might not be able to find a good opportunity to talk to you.”r e ad o nly at s a l mon l att e . com Th is ann oyin g watermark is not t he re.re ad onl y at sal monla tte. com Th is an noy ing waterm ark is not ther e.
Murong Yan nodded lightly, he understood this truth better than Yu Qingjia.
The courtyard was already dark, so as long as Murong Yan wanted to, he could just hide overnight without attracting anyone’s attention.
When Yu Qingjia started acting up earlier, Murong Yan immediately understood her intentions.
Since he knew that she had a plan, he finally felt relieved, so he didn’t hesitate to hide himself in a corner covered by darkness.
After exchanging information with Murong Yan, Yu Qingjia finally regained her enthusiasm.
She focused more on the urgent matters at hand.
