Quick travel: I rely on the childbirth system to pamper my harem

Chapter 521: The General's Mansion Madam and the Frontier God of War 23

Hongying asked in surprise: "Madam, who did you see?"

Yu Qingning kept staring at the man as he sneaked into a shabby courtyard until he was completely out of sight, then he withdrew his gaze.

"No one."

The two maids didn't ask any more questions and just focused on serving Yu Qingning.

After returning from the shop after checking the accounts, Yu Qingning deliberately asked the driver to take a detour and pass by that alley.

As he got closer, Yu Qingning found that this courtyard was particularly shabby and secluded.

There were almost no people living around here, and the front doors of several houses were covered with cobwebs and were shaky, looking like they would fall to the ground with a slight push.

"Madam, this place is in such a state of disrepair, what are we doing here?"

Daylily was a little curious.

Yu Qingning didn't explain much, just looked at Hongying and said, "Find a few skilled people to secretly watch this place, and notify me if there is any movement."

Hongying's eyes flashed with hesitation and she did not agree immediately.

"What's the matter? Are you in trouble?" Yu Qingning asked.

"That's not what I meant. I just want to know why Madam did this."

The Fang family has plenty of soldiers under their command, so it would be easy to send a few experts to keep an eye on them.

Yu Qingning frowned and stared at Hongying coldly: "If you want to stay with me forever, just do as I say. I'm easy to get along with, but I'm not a pushover."

If she has to report everything to a servant, then what's the point of her being the general's wife?

Hongying immediately admitted her mistake: "It was my fault for talking too much!"

"Do it."

After the carriage drove out of the alley, Yu Qingning asked the driver to stop, and Hongying got off immediately, not daring to say a word.

And Hemerocallis sat opposite Yu Qingning with some trepidation.

Yu Qingning narrowed his eyes slightly: "I have always been clear about rewards and punishments, you don't have to be so afraid."

"Slave..."

"My husband arranged you to be by my side. Besides asking you to help me with things, he must also want you to tell him about my recent situation, right?"

Both daylily and red gentian have some skills.

In addition to protecting her, the next thing is to become her spy.

Hemerocallis immediately said, "Yes."

"You don't need me to teach you how to tell your husband."

Yu Qingning gave a warning. What she did was harmless anyway. Even if the two spies reported to Fang Jixuan, it would not affect her. After all, Fang Jixuan was thousands of miles away.

Even if I wanted to stop her actions, I couldn't do it in a short time.

Xuancao lowered her head and said, "Madam, the general said that from now on, Hongying and I are yours. You don't have to report everything to him. We know exactly how to act. Madam, please rest assured."

"We will never betray the Madam and the General!"

Yu Qingning said: "This is best."

Xuancao felt heavy again, and looked at the alley behind her: "Madam, I want to ask what Hongying asked just now. It's not that I don't want to do things for you, but I want to know why you are doing this, so as not to mess up your work."

Yu Qingning was silent for a while.

In fact, she doesn't know what she wants to do. At least for now, she doesn't have a definite answer.

"Keep an eye on this side, and you will know."

The next night, Hongying sneaked in from the back door. Just as Yu Qingning was about to go to sleep, he saw that Hongying's face looked very heavy and cautious.

"Madam, there is movement in the place you asked me to watch."

Yu Qingning was no longer sleepy, and immediately put on his clothes and asked, "What did you see?"

"That man is indeed Cheng Yanzhou!"

"He went to the house twice today, holding food in his hands. Every time he went in, the food was eaten, but he would close the house tightly after he went in, so no one could hear anything going on inside."

"The people sent out didn't dare to alert the enemy, so they could only stay outside and couldn't hear the conversation inside."

"What is certain is that Cheng Yanzhou is definitely doing something bad."

Yu Qingning frowned.

What is Cheng Yanzhou doing?

It seems that there was no such thing in my previous life...

"Prepare the carriage and go out."

"Yes."

Half an hour later, Yu Qingning arrived at the courtyard where Cheng Yanzhou and his family lived.

The magnificent carriage stopped at the door, making the ruined courtyard look horrible.

Yu Qingning helped Xuancao get out of the car while Hongying went forward and knocked on the door.

After a while, it was Yu Shuyao who came over and opened the door.

She was wearing a coarse linen shirt, her face was red and swollen, and her eyes were red, obviously she had just cried.

Seeing that it was Yu Qingning, Yu Shuyao immediately sneered: "Why is it you? What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

It was obvious that he was afraid that Yu Qingning would come and snatch Cheng Yanzhou away!

Yu Qingning narrowed her eyes and said calmly, "Sister, were you beaten? What happened? The Yu family is a scholarly family after all, and you are the eldest daughter. How can you be bullied like this?"

Hearing this, Yu Shuyao felt very sad.

She thought so too, but Zhu's mother and daughter were lowly people who didn't care about propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame at all.

I would lose my temper at her if I felt a little unhappy!

And she must not be disrespectful to her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, otherwise Cheng Yanzhou would torture her on the bed when he finds out!

"It's none of your business. Stop pretending. What on earth are you doing here?"

Yu Shuyao raised her chin and glanced across the courtyard. It was very desolate, but still tidy. She glanced at Yu Shuyao's hands. The skin that was originally as white as mutton-fat jade was now covered with calluses.

It seems that Yu Shuyao has been taking care of these trivial matters these days.

Yu Shuyao is amazing. She is obviously a rich girl, but she can still endure the temper and she doesn't even go to Yu's mother to cry. It's really rare.

He was tortured a lot by Zhu's mother and daughter.

"Sister, I just came to see if my sister is doing well." Yu Qingning led people directly in, "Why is Caiyun not here? Why did my sister open the door?"

Caiyun is Yu Shuyao's maid who came with her as a dowry, and is also the one given to Yu Shuyao by Yu's mother. She is a smart and protective maid.

When Yu Shuyao heard the word Caiyun, she felt as if she had been poked in a sore spot. She jumped up and said, "Who opened the door? Is it so important? If you have nothing to do, just leave. You are not welcome here!"

"What are you arguing about so late at night?"

Suddenly, Zhu came out of the house with sleepy eyes, her clothes still hanging loosely on her body, revealing large areas of slightly loose skin, completely disregarding her image.

If Yu Qingning were a man, he would have seen everything he shouldn't have seen.

This Zhu family...

As expected of a brothel-sitter, the guests at his home all behave like those from brothels. No wonder he can't enter the marquis's mansion.

Beside Zhu, Caiyun was standing there supporting her.

With a ruddy complexion and a plump body, she actually looks more like the mistress of the house than Yu Shuyao.

As he missed her, Yu Qingning figured it out.

No wonder Yu Shuyao got so angry when Caiyun was mentioned. It turned out that Caiyun had been taken as a concubine by Cheng Yanzhou and even pleased Zhu. With Yu Shuyao's proud and arrogant personality, how could she not be angry?

"Who are you?" When Zhu saw Yu Qingning standing in the yard, a look of confusion flashed across her eyes.

Yu Qingning chuckled and said, "I am Shu Yao's sister, Fang Jixuan's wife. I came here on purpose to see if my sister is doing well here."
