When they arrived at the gate of the Shen residence, they knocked for a long time before a gatekeeper finally came to open the door lazily.

"Who?"

"I am the fourth young lady of the Ye family." Ye Ziru held her head high and said with a cold snort.

"Miss Ye?" The gatekeeper looked Ye Ziru up and down. She was dressed beautifully and dared to break into someone else's house without an invitation. Her manners were really worrying.

"What brings Fourth Miss to the Shen Residence so early in the morning?"

"I'm here to look for Mr. Shen Er."

The gatekeeper secretly curled his lips after hearing what Ye Ziru said, and his contemptuous look became even stronger. She took the initiative to look for the young master before she got married, and she was not afraid of ruining her reputation. "The young master hasn't gotten up yet, please wait until the sun is high in the sky before looking for someone."

Saying that, he was about to close the door.

Ye Ziru was anxious and stretched out her hand to block the door. "You old servant, how dare you disrespect me? When I marry the Second Master Shen, I will be the mistress of the Shen Mansion. Then I will definitely kick you out of the house."

"Hurry up and inform Mr. Shen that I'm here to see him. It's important."

The gatekeeper stared at Ye Ziru coldly, and finally said calmly: "Then please wait a moment, young lady. I will go and inform the young master."

The gatekeeper turned and left, with a look of disdain on his face where Ye Ziru couldn't see, "She hasn't even married yet, but she wants to be in charge of the Shen Mansion. Tsk tsk, I really don't know where she gets her confidence from."

The news that Ye Zi Rulai was looking for someone reached Shen Yuming's ears.

Shen Yuming was still hungover, had a severe headache, and felt upset.

"Make her wait."

"Yes."

Jiaojiao beside her brought some hangover soup and said softly, "Master, please wake up. I will help you wash up right away."

Shen Yuming stood up and drank the hangover soup, then he felt a little better. He looked up at Jiaojiao, who was radiant. He stretched out his hand and took her into his arms.

"Master..."

Shen Yuming hugged Jiaojiao directly.

Jiaojiao breathed heavily, "Second Master, the fourth young lady of the Ye Mansion is still waiting outside, you have to wash and get ready quickly."

"Do you really want me to leave?" Shen Yuming asked back in a deep and powerful voice.

Jiaojiao blushed and her heart beat fast. She subconsciously grabbed Shen Yuming's sleeve, "Jiaojiao wants the young master to stay here..."

On the other side, Ye Ziru was led into the yard and asked to wait in the living room.

Ye Ziru was a little nervous at first. This was her first time to see Mr. Shen Er, and she didn't know how Mr. Shen Er would react when he learned the news of her pregnancy.

She fidgeted and sat nervously on the wooden chair.

The living room was quiet. The maid in the mansion brought her here and left without even bringing her a cup of tea, which made her even more anxious.

"Why hasn't Second Master Shen come yet?"

Ye Ziru sat there for a long time, it felt like almost half an hour, but there was still no sound.

"It must be because Second Master Shen is busy. If I wait a little longer, he will come to see me." She comforted herself and continued to wait patiently.

The sun was shining brightly. From early morning till daytime, the servants in the mansion began to get busy. But she was the only one sitting in the living room, waiting and waiting for Shen Yuming to appear.

The servants would occasionally gather around her, glance at her, and whisper to each other, no one knew what they were mumbling.

But from the look in their eyes, there was definitely nothing good to say.

Ye Ziru endured it again and again, but finally couldn't bear it anymore, so she stood up and walked to the servants, saying angrily: "Why hasn't Mr. Shen come yet? I've been waiting for a long time."

The little maid looked at her and said calmly, "We don't know either. The young master asked you to wait here, so you just wait obediently."

"you."

This was a blatant neglect. She had never suffered such an injustice before, being bullied by a maid.

Ye Ziru glared at the maid, secretly memorized her appearance, and planned in her heart that after she married into the Shen family, she would sell her to a brothel!

At this time, the maid turned around and saw the woman walking slowly towards her. Her eyes lit up and she said, "Sister Jiaojiao, you're here at the right time. The fourth young lady of the Ye Mansion wants to find the young master. I wonder where the young master is now?"

The woman who was walking slowly towards them was young and beautiful, with gentle eyes and eyebrows, and her every move revealed the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.

When Ye Ziru saw her, her eyes seemed to be glued to her. She always felt that she was different from ordinary maids.

Jiaojiao gently waved her hand and asked everyone to leave. "You guys can continue with your work."

"Yes, Sister Jiaojiao."

The servants retreated one by one and obeyed the woman named Jiaojiao as if she was the master of the backyard.

Ye Ziru felt unhappy and looked Jiaojiao up and down.

Jiaojiao looked at Ye Ziru, smiled slightly, and said, "Sorry to have kept Miss Four waiting for a long time. The young master is bathing and changing clothes, and will be here soon."

"Yeah." Ye Ziru was unhappy and spoke in a stiff tone.

Jiaojiao spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, and when facing Ye Ziru, she did not show the humility of a servant at all, which made Ye Ziru very unhappy.

"Someone, serve Miss Four a cup of tea. Don't be slow." Jiaojiao shouted outside, and then asked Ye Ziru with a smile: "Does Miss Four have any other instructions?"

Ye Ziru felt strange. She was clearly a maid, but she didn't pour tea herself and had to order others to do it. Did she think of herself as a young lady or the mistress of the Shen residence?

At this time, Jiaojiao gently adjusted her hair and collar, and Ye Ziru, with sharp eyes, discovered the red marks on her neck.

Ye Ziru was not new to the world, so she naturally knew what the red mark meant. It was the mark left by sexual intercourse between men and women!

"You..." Ye Ziru was shocked, her thoughts were in a mess, and some guesses emerged in her mind, but she didn't dare to think too much.

Young masters of wealthy families usually have maids around them. The woman in front of him was young and beautiful, exuding the charm of a mature woman. It was not surprising that Mr. Shen had a good impression of her. Could it be that they...

Jiaojiao looked at Ye Ziru's surprised expression and smiled slightly.

She deliberately revealed these traces to Ye Ziru. This woman wanted to rely on some means to marry into the Shen family and become the mistress. She wanted to see if Ye Ziru had the ability to do so.

These days, Shen Yuming was in a bad mood and drank all day long, which made Jiaojiao feel distressed.

In her opinion, Ye Ziru was just a slutty woman who would do anything to marry the young master.

Jiaojiao said calmly, "Don't take it personally, Fourth Miss. Second Master was very tired after tossing and turning for a long time before falling asleep last night. Second Master didn't expect Fourth Miss to come looking for him so early in the morning... So, please bear with me."

After hearing this, Ye Ziru unconsciously scratched the wooden chair, wishing she could peel off the veneer.

What did she mean by this? Ye Ziru stared at the red mark on Jiaojiao's neck, feeling it was so irritating that she wanted to kick her out of the house immediately.

Jiaojiao was not afraid of Ye Ziru's fierce eyes. She smiled lightly and said calmly, "Fourth Miss, if you come to see the Second Master in the future, you must abide by the rules of the Shen Mansion."

"you……"

Ye Ziru stood up and glared at Jiaojiao. What did this maid mean by that? How dare a servant talk to her on an equal footing?
