Chapter 945 [Ashes of Love: Red Mansion Tribulation 15]
Jia Min walked lightly into the Simiao Pavilion where Youyou lived, followed closely by two tall and stern-looking women, An Shiyi and An Shier. She smiled and said to Youyou softly, "Yu'er, mother has found two maids for you today. One of them knows a little bit about martial arts, and the other knows a little bit about medicine. Let them stay by your side and serve you from now on."
When Youyou heard this, she quickly glanced at An Shiyi and An Shier, and her heart was shocked. At a glance, she realized that these two people were not just ordinary maids, but more like secret guards who had been carefully trained. Youyou calmed down and asked, "Mother, where did you find these two girls?"
Jia Min smiled slightly and replied slowly, "Today when I was out, I happened to meet these two girls selling themselves on the street to bury their father. Seeing how pitiful they were, I felt pity for them and gave them some silver so that they could properly bury their father. These two girls are now alone and helpless. I thought of taking them into the mansion. Firstly, it would be a good deed. Secondly, they each have their own strengths. One is proficient in medicine and the other is good at martial arts. They can accompany you and protect you."
Youyou knew that her mother was kind-hearted, but she probably didn't know the true origins and details of these two people. So, she turned to look at An Shiyi and An Shier, and asked calmly: "In this case, then may I ask if you two have your own names?"
An Eleven and An Twelve looked at each other, then both bowed their heads and replied, "To answer your question, young lady, our previous names were all cheap names. We hope you can give us some names."
After thinking for a while, Youyou slowly said: "Well... the elder sister will be called Qiuhua, and the younger sister will be called Qiushuang." Her eyes fell on the two people in front of her with a bit of scrutiny and curiosity.
"Thank you, Miss, for the name!" Qiuhua hurriedly bowed and saluted, her voice clear and respectful.
Qiu Shuang, who was standing beside him, also knelt down and said, "Thank you for the name, Miss!"
At this time, Jia Min smiled and said to Youyou, "Mother still has some things to deal with, so I'll leave first." After that, she turned and walked out the door.
Youyou quickly stood up to see her off, saying, "Farewell, mother."
After watching Jia Min leave, Youyou sat back in her chair and cast her eyes on the two secret guards she had just given names to. She narrowed her eyes slightly and said with a smile, "Okay, now you can tell the truth. Who sent you? Don't use the old excuse of 'selling yourself to bury your father' to fool me. I am not that easy to fool. Tell me, who ordered you to approach me? What is your purpose?"
Qiuhua and Qiushuang looked at each other, and each saw a trace of helplessness in the other's eyes. Since their identities had been exposed, they knew they could no longer hide it. So they both knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Miss, we two sisters were sent by the prince of Beijing. The prince ordered us to follow you and be responsible for your safety. The prince also specifically explained that once we are by your side, we will be yours. From now on, you will be our only master."
"Okay, in that case, then you guys stay here for a while. However, I don't keep idle people. And I want to remind you of one more thing. I will never tolerate people who betray their masters here! If I find out that you still have any connection or contact with your former master, I'm sorry, please go back to where you came from immediately!" Youyou crossed her arms and said seriously.
Hearing this, Qiuhua and Qiushuang immediately knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Miss, rest assured. We are your people in life and your ghosts in death. From now on, in this world, we will only recognize you as our master and will never have two minds again! If you break this oath, you will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"
Seeing the two of them expressing their loyalty so solemnly, Youyou nodded slightly, indicating that she was quite satisfied, but she continued to ask, "Well... I hope it is really as you said. By the way, from what you just said, I guess you two sisters should have more skills than just medicine and martial arts, right?"
Qiu Hua looked up at You You and replied respectfully, "Miss, as you expected, in addition to being proficient in martial arts, I am also quite good at gathering intelligence. Moreover, my Qinggong is one of the best in the martial arts world!"
At this time, Qiu Shuang on the side also said, "Miss, I can not only cure diseases and save lives, and detoxify, but my martial arts skills are not as good as your sister's, but at least I have some skills. In addition, I also like to study cooking on weekdays, and I am especially good at making all kinds of delicious food and nourishing medicinal food."
After listening to the two people's introduction, Youyou smiled and pointed at the two women standing beside him and said, "Yes, not bad. Come, let me introduce you. This is my head maid Huandie, and that is Huanmeng. From now on, Qiuhua and Qiushuang, you two should work with Huanmeng. As for the monthly salary, it will be distributed to you according to the standard of head maids in our mansion."
"Yes, Miss." Qiuhua and Qiushuang responded in unison.
"Huanmeng, you take the two of them and leave first. Huandie, you stay by my side." Youyou opened her red lips slightly and gave the instructions slowly.
"Yes, Miss." Huan Meng nodded slightly and responded. Then, he turned around and left with Qiu Hua and Qiu Shuang. The three of them walked farther and farther away until their figures disappeared from sight.
Huandie followed closely behind Youyou and entered the inner room together. As soon as they entered the room, Huandie couldn't help but ask, "Miss, do you have any doubts about those two people?"
Youyou frowned slightly, and after a moment's silence, she said softly, "Yes, the current situation is unclear, so we have to be on guard. Also, send a message to them quickly, and don't come to my house to look for me for the time being. I'm worried that Prince Beijing may have noticed some clues. We have worked hard for many years to accumulate these forces, and we must not easily destroy them."
"Yes, Miss. I will handle this matter properly and will convey your intention to the council. But... Miss, do you really want to keep these two people by your side for a long time?" Huandie continued to ask with a worried look on her face.
Youyou thought for a moment, and then replied, "Let's arrange it this way for now. Putting them in the open will make it easier to control them, rather than letting them hide in the dark and be hard to figure out. Besides, it's still unclear what the Prince of Beijing is up to, so we need to think long and hard about everything."
Huandie nodded to show that she understood, and then she comforted her, "Don't worry, young lady. I will tell Huanmeng to pay close attention to their every move and will not let them do anything unusual."
Youyou looked ahead with a serious expression, and whispered to Huandie beside her: "You must make Huanmeng be more careful and cautious, and make sure to hide her conspicuous tail properly, and never let Qiuhua and Qiushuang find any clues!"
Huandie nodded slightly and responded respectfully: "Yes, miss, please rest assured, I will convey your words to Huanmeng and tell her to do it." After that, Huandie turned and left, and her figure quickly disappeared around the corner.
