Chapter 104 Qiuyan's Confession

Chapter 104 Qiuyan's Confession

Qiuyan felt a tremor in her heart for no apparent reason, and dared not tease Xiaodie anymore. She quickly apologized and said with a smile, "This sister has misunderstood. We are all miserable people in the dust. Can't you see that I am just having fun for a moment?"

However, Xiaodie was still angry. If it weren't for her mistress's restraining look, she would have argued with Qiuyan to determine the winner.

Seeing that the misunderstanding between the women was settled, Ye Xuan suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.

Although Nian Wei had said before that she was almost able to raise enough money to redeem herself, Ye Xuan just ignored it and never took it seriously.
Now that Nianwei and Xiaodie have suddenly moved in with so many luggage, it's really difficult to accommodate them.

But Ye Xuan was not the kind of person who would deny his duty. After thinking for a while, he ordered, "Qiuyan, take Chunfeng, Xiayu, and Huangying to clean up the east wing and let Miss Nianwei and Xiaodie settle down."

Finally, fearing that there might be some disputes between the girls, he added, "Nian Wei is my confidante. You guys should serve her like a master, understand?"

Chunfeng Xiayu was originally bought by Nianwei, so naturally they had no objection and nodded in agreement.

As for Huang Ying, although she was inexplicably treated hostile by Xiaodie, she firmly placed herself in the position of a maid from beginning to end and was not unhappy about it.

Only Qiuyan nodded obediently, but Ye Xuan saw a hint of cunning on her face.

This little girl won't cause any trouble for me, right?
I wanted to go back to my room immediately, hold the gold and silver awarded by Zhu Yuanzhang, and count them one by one like the rich landlord in my previous life, but Nianwei came suddenly, and it would be bad to let her stand alone in the yard waiting before the east wing was cleaned up.

So while Qiuyan was cleaning the room with others, he pulled Nianwei to sit on the marble bench in the front yard.

"Nianwei, why didn't you inform me in advance today, the day of your redemption, so that I could book a banquet to celebrate for you." As soon as they sat down, Ye Xuan said with some blame.

Nian Wei's eyes were still red. She forced a smile and said, "Nian Wei is just a floating duckweed in the mortal world. It is a blessing that you, my lord, do not abandon me. How dare I trouble you, my lord?"

Ye Xuan suddenly felt a little embarrassed, knowing that Nian Wei was still worried about Qiu Yan.

In fact, if you think about it, you can understand it. Although Nian Wei keeps saying that she is just a prostitute and that being able to stay by Ye Xuan's side as a confidante is already a high position, as long as she is a woman, how can she not be jealous?

Originally, two well-behaved and pretty maids, Chunfeng and Xiayu, were chosen for Ye Xuan. Although they were meant to help Ye Xuan with housework, they were also meant to tie Ye Xuan down.

In order to prevent Ye Xuan from being alone with women when he is not in Miaoyin Pavilion, she might as well select two for him personally. Firstly, it would be a favor, and secondly, even if Ye Xuan really took in Chunfeng and Xiayu in the future, after all, these two maids were bought with her own money. So when she moved to Ye Xuan's house, she would be more or less superior to him.

But he didn't expect that he already had Chunfeng and Xiayu, two tender little girls at home, and himself, the most beautiful girl in Miaoyin Pavilion, outside. If that was not enough, Xiaodie, who was quite knowledgeable about romance, didn't stop him from using her. Even so, Ye Xuan seemed to feel that it was not enough, as there were two more women in his house after he hadn't seen them for a few days.

Could it be that I have been exploiting Ye Xuan and it’s not enough?

Nian Wei was secretly shocked. Every time Ye Xuan came to Miaoyin Pavilion, she would spend 80% of the time lying in bed with him.

If he couldn't squeeze her dry like this, it was no wonder that Ye Xuan wanted to add more women to the mansion. Ye Xuan naturally didn't know that Nian Wei had already thought of him as a strange man with an amazing appetite. He just touched his nose and told Qiuyan and Huangying's origins one by one in a somewhat awkward manner.

After hearing what happened, Nian Wei realized that she had misunderstood Ye Xuan. Suddenly, it was Nian Wei's turn to feel embarrassed, especially when she thought about how she had just speculated in her mind about what a strange man Ye Xuan was. She felt her cheeks getting hotter and hotter.

Ye Xuan looked puzzled and wondered why Nian Wei was blushing for no reason.

Just now she looked so miserable as if she had been abandoned by someone, but now she looks shy again.

Women are really unpredictable creatures.

However, Xiaodie, who was standing aside, snorted coldly and said, "The one named Huang Ying doesn't look like anything special, but the housekeeper Qiuyan looks like a foxy woman. I was wondering what was going on, and it turns out she is also a veteran in the world of prostitution."

"A woman like this came to us on her own initiative and asked to be taken in. Besides, our master is such a rare talent. Who can say that she won't do something bad to you? In my opinion, it's better to let her go as soon as possible."

As soon as these words came out, Nian Wei immediately scolded: "We all came from brothels, who is nobler than who? You can't judge a person's character by his or her origin. If you insult others, you are also insulting yourself!"

Xiaodie was unconvinced and said, "How can this be the same? Miss, you and I are both prostitutes, how can we be compared with Qiuyan, who is engaged in the flesh trade?"

Ye Xuan frowned and said unhappily, "If you have no worries about food and clothing, who would want to do such a lowly thing? Do you think I don't want to be like the daughter of an official, who has nothing to do but feel sad about the autumn wind and the painting fan? Xiaodie, if I hear you say this again, don't blame me for punishing you according to the family rules!"

"Besides, Qiuyan is actually a good person and she does things efficiently and properly. If she hadn't been busy cleaning up these past few days, the house would have been in such a mess if it had just been left to those two lazy people, Chunfeng and Xiayu."

Xiaodie immediately stuck out her tongue and closed her mouth in fear.

However, the three of them did not notice that Qiuyan had already come a few steps away and was about to tell Nianwei that the master and servant's east wing had been cleaned up.

Hearing this, her eyes turned red and she called out softly, "Master..."

Ye Xuan turned his head and saw Qiuyan standing not far away, at a loss, and suddenly felt embarrassed.

Although he was not the one who said bad things about Qiuyan, it was not a gentleman's behavior to discuss other people's affairs behind their backs. He suddenly opened his mouth in embarrassment.

Before she could think of what to say, she saw Qiuyan approaching. She glanced at Xiaodie with disdain, then looked at Nianwei and said, "This little girl is right. I still have evil intentions towards the young master."

"You... are so shameless!" Xiaodie was immediately angry.

Ye Xuan was also surprised, thinking back to the time when Qiu Yan had indeed been overly enthusiastic and considerate to him, but it was just the professional standard of a housekeeper.

As for those overly intimate actions and provocative words, he just thought that Qiuyan had been in the entertainment industry for too long and couldn't change herself all of a sudden. He never thought that she actually had improper thoughts about him!
