Reborn to be replaced, remarried to the royal palace to raise children and train husband
Chapter 100: Serving You
The handwriting on the letter was vigorous and fluent, and every word was full of affection and concern: "My dear, I have put on the golden soft armor you gave me. It is very comfortable. It has helped me escape danger many times on the battlefield. Every time I put it on, I can deeply feel your meticulous care.
As your husband, I don't have much to give you in return. The two silver notes are a token of respect from the local officials. I'm handing them over to you now to buy some clothes and jewelry. If the amount of silver notes is not enough, you can go to my private storeroom and take it yourself.
Since we are married, there is no need to divide our property so clearly, and you don't need to be so polite to me. If everything goes well, we will spend our lives together, and every penny I earn will be yours. "
Gu Qinlan's cheeks were instantly flushed like the sunset.
Although Zheng Dinglian's words are not fancy and do not contain too many gorgeous words, his directness and frankness are more likely to touch people's hearts.
She felt that she could not bear such frankness and wanted to stand up to escape the embarrassment. However, Fu Yu beside her was fanning her gently. She was too embarrassed to even raise her head, for fear that Fu Yu would notice her embarrassment.
She no longer had the courage to read the rest of the letter, for she was afraid it might contain even more explicit words.
If Fu Yu saw it, given this girl's personality, she would probably tease her about it every few days.
She really couldn't stand such a joke!
However, if she didn't look at it, wouldn't Fu Yu be even more confused?
Just when Gu Qinlan was struggling with her inner struggle, Hongye came in hurriedly and reported: "Miss, the eldest girl beat up Aunt Zhang."
Gu Qinlan was stunned and asked in surprise: "What happened? Why did she hit Aunt Zhang? Has she lost her mind?"
Can you just beat the nanny?
This Zheng Huiyi, does she still have any rationality?
Hongye replied, "After receiving the message from the young lady, Aunt Zhang temporarily increased the training time for the young lady by half an hour tonight. The young lady was probably angry about the letter from the prince and was unwilling to cooperate. When Aunt Zhang criticized her a little, the young lady got angry and slapped Aunt Zhang twice in a row. She also tried to escape from the mansion, saying that she wanted to find the old lady. This servant stopped her in time."
Gu Qinlan frowned and ordered, "Take her back to the yard and lock her up first. I'll go see Aunt Zhang."
She put the letter on the table and was about to get up when the maid came to report: "Madam, Aunt Zhang is here."
"Please ask Mammy to come in."
Soon, Nanny Zhang was led into the study.
As soon as she saw Gu Qinlan, Aunt Zhang was about to bow, but Gu Qinlan quickly stopped her: "No need to be polite, Aunt. Did Huiyi, that naughty boy, hurt you?"
Aunt Zhang's eyes were red and her voice was slightly choked with sobs. She confided to Madam Gu Qinlan: "Madam, I have taught countless ladies, but I have never encountered such a difficult situation. I am really worried that I may not be able to fulfill your trust. Please find another wise man."
Gu Qinlan immediately stepped forward and carefully helped Aunt Zhang to sit on the couch, and said gently, "Aunt, I know how much injustice you have suffered today. Huiyi's behavior is indeed outrageous, and I regret it in my heart. But please be magnanimous and don't argue with that brainless person. For my sake, can you please let things go peacefully?"
Aunt Zhang looked embarrassed and hesitant: "This..."
Gu Qinlan held her hand tightly and patted it gently: "Mammy, I understand your worries, fearing that she will be rude to you again in the future. I promise you that it will never happen again. Mammy, your current situation is not easy. If you leave here, it may be difficult to find a new owner in a short time. This is really a big impact on you. How about this, you stay for the time being, and if someone else invites you, I will allow you to leave at any time, what do you think?"
"If Madam does not forsake me, I am willing to stay in the mansion for a long time. After you have properly taught the two young ladies the proper manners, you can come to my side and assist them. As for your son's studies, I am also willing to try to help him."
Aunt Zhang was so surprised that she was speechless. After a while, she asked in disbelief, "Madam, is what you said true? Are you really willing to keep me? But the way I treated you in the past..."
Gu Qinlan smiled and replied, "Of course it is true. You were strict with me in the past, but you were just following the master's orders. Moreover, you did teach me a lot of valuable knowledge. Moreover, your qualities are also what I cherish the most. You staying by my side is of immeasurable value to me."
Aunt Zhang was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes.
Before this, she entered Prince Duan's mansion with trepidation, fearing that Gu Qinlan would take this opportunity to oppress her. After all, when she taught Gu Qinlan, her methods were harsh and almost harsh. Even if Gu Qinlan performed well, she could find faults and find a reason to punish her.
If it weren't for the financial difficulties at home, she would never dare to set foot here again.
However, to her surprise, Gu Qinlan not only did not criticize her, but treated her so well that she felt ashamed.
You know, very few of these foster nurses can have a good end in their later years. They all hope to meet a kind master and spend their later years with him as good citizens.
The most important thing for wealthy families is the loyalty of their servants. Servants who have not signed an indenture often find it difficult to hold their heads high, let alone gain the deep trust and reuse of their masters.
The opportunity that Gu Qinlan was willing to keep her by his side despite the past was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. How could she easily refuse such a precious opportunity?
Aunt Zhang immediately prostrated herself on the ground, touching her head to the ground, and kowtowed three times in succession: "Madam, from now on, this old slave's broken body is willing to be loyal to you."
Gu Qinlan gently helped her up: "Madam, you are too humble. Please stand up quickly."
There was a reason why she decided to keep Aunt Zhang by her side. Although Aunt Zhang had made things difficult for her in the past under the instigation of the Song family, if we put aside this past, judging from Aunt Zhang's talents alone, she was indeed a talented person.
More importantly, Nanny Zhang's son will become Ji Yinli's biggest rival in the imperial examination three years later.
In his previous life, Ji Yinli was able to rise to prominence thanks to her paving the way for him. However, Deng Chengkun, the son of Aunt Zhang, was a talented man with real ability.
Unfortunately, Deng Chengkun had a bad fate. He fell ill in the examination room and was almost dismissed. Even so, Deng Chengkun still passed the examination with the honor of being a Jinshi with his unyielding will.
If it weren't for that illness, Ji Yinli would not have been among the top three that year.
She left Aunt Zhang to help Deng Chengkun, not to deal with Ji Yinli. After all, Ji Yinli's level was not enough to be a threat to her.
Her purpose was to establish friendship with Deng Chengkun in advance and provide a solid support for her future self.
