Chapter 586: Chapter 579 - Gift_1

No one knows what happened after Liu Zikang followed Old Lord Marquis into the study.

However, when this important state counselor came out of the study, his face was ashen, his forehead swollen as big as an egg!

He claimed that he had carelessly bumped into something!

The servants in the mansion could not help but secretly smile, and no one dared to say anything. But when he went to the morning court session, his colleagues looked at him with apparent disdain in their eyes.

He was angry but dared not say anything, leaving hurriedly as soon as the court session ended!

Su Pan’er could not help but laugh when Qin Yi mentioned this matter, just carefully keeping the indenture sent by Liu Mansion.

Time flew by in the blink of an eye.

"Child, child don’t be greedy, once Laba Festival’s through it’s New Year; Laba Porridge, for several days, twenty-third is cutting maltose; twenty-fourth is sweep the house; twenty-fifth is frozen tofu; twenty-sixth to buy meat, twenty-seventh to slaughter the cock; twenty-eighth to prepare the dough; twenty-ninth to steam buns; the eve, simmer all night; new day, the first day of the lunar month, roam the streets..."

Su Pan’er felt that as she was still preparing for the New Year, the festival was quietly drawing close amidst the nursery rhyme of the children.

The palace has been sealed off a long time ago, but Qin Yi was still constantly going into the palace until the twenty-ninth.

What’s different was that he usually entered the palace for the morning court session in the middle of the night, but now he was not returning home all day in broad daylight.

It was quite a spectacle, no sooner had he stepped out than someone carried a small sedan straight into the second entrance, claiming it to be a gift for Qin Yi to enjoy.

What kind of gift needed to be delivered in a sedan?

When Su Pan’er saw the gift in the sedan, her whole face suddenly fell!

"Who are you? How did you get here?"

She asked sternly at the stunning woman in the sedan.

The woman came over gracefully, curtsied in front of Su Pan’er with a shy face.

"Your servant Ting Ting greets elder sister!"

"Elder sister? Heh, I’m not so fortunate, nor were my parents so lucky, to have such a grown-up daughter like you!"

Su Pan’er’s smile didn’t reach her eyes as she spoke, "Considering you’re a human life, you should return where you came from and I, as the lady of the house will let you off. Otherwise, with this indenture in hand, I will beat you to death! Let’s see who dares intercede for you!"

The cruelty in her eyes frightened the beauty, who immediately started crying pitifully.

"Elder sister, since your servant has stepped into this door, naturally I belong to Qin Family’s Mansion."

She spoke with unusual resolution, "Even if elder sister beats me to death, your servant dares not harbour any resentment. I hope elder sister will show mercy and spare your servant’s humble life! Your servant does not ask for anything else, just a corner in the mansion to stay and a bowl of rice to eat is enough."

"Sure! The heaven has a road you do not walk, hell has no doors you want to break in!"

Su Pan’er nodded, a cold flash running through her eyes, "Nanny Feng! You have had the trouble of a trip, send this young lady to the Moon Rest Garden, personally hand her over to Miss Ye, and say, let her teach her the rules on my behalf!"

The words ’teach’ were heavily accentuated by Su Pan’er!

Last time, after investigating the Feng family case, the siblings agreed to continue using their aliases for the time being. One was called Night Tide Moon, and the other was called Ye Feng.

Nanny Feng understood and immediately stepped forward to bow to Su Pan’er, "Madam, just watch how well I handle this."

After speaking, she took the pale-faced Ting Ting away.

Soon, Nanny Feng came back to report, "Madam, that person, Night Tide Moon has already taken her in, and also asked your servant to tell Madam that she understands this matter."

"Very good!"

Su Pan’er laughed coldly, "She is indeed sensible!"

"Indeed, she is quite sensible."

Nanny Feng rarely praises anyone, she said.

She has a wickedly enchanting face, yet she doesn’t vie for attention, doesn’t get too close to the master, and keeps a low profile. No wonder the Missus entrusted her with this task.

When Qin Yi came back that evening, he immediately sensed the low mood in the mansion.

Even the maidservants and page boys who saw him hurriedly bowed and scurried away, as if he had some kind of mould around him.

He looked himself up and down but couldn’t find anything wrong.

However, his left eyelid wouldn’t stop twitching. Strange indeed!

Shaking his head to clear his puzzling thoughts, Qin Yi strode into the house.

"Pan’er, I’m back!"

He sat outside on a small Mazar stool, took off his muddy boots, changed into a pair of light cloth shoes, then shook off the cold from his body, trying not to bring it into the house.

"His Majesty says tomorrow is New Year’s Eve, and he wants everyone to spend time at home with their families. We’ll meet with him again in the palace on New Year’s Day."

The house was quiet, without a sound.

Qin Yi was not surprised, and after shaking off the cold, he lifted the curtain and entered.

"Pan’er? What are you doing?"

Pan’er was leaning on the table, one hand propping up her cheek, the other fidgeting with the whip she usually liked to wear around her waist. She didn’t speak or move.

"What’s wrong? Pan’er, did one of the foolish servants upset you? Don’t worry, your husband is back now, I’ll definitely help you vent."

"Pfft!"

A suspicious sound came from Su Pan’er’s mouth, but her face didn’t show anything, and it was so quick that Qin Yi thought he had heard wrong.

"You want to help me vent? What if the one who upset me is you?"

"Me? Absolutely not!"

Qin Yi said decisively, but his mind was racing. This morning when he left, Pan’er was fine, and he hadn’t done anything to upset her. She must be trying to scare him!

"Impossible? There are plenty of impossibilities, this one doesn’t make a difference."

Suddenly, Su Pan’er moved. She reached out and grabbed his arm, twisting it hard. "If it weren’t for the upcoming New Year, it wouldn’t be good to have blood on my hands. I would have killed her! What, do you think what I, Su Pan’er, said was a fart? Forgotten once said? Huh!"

"Ouch! Pain, pain, pain... Pan’er, twist lightly, it hurts!"

"You dare to argue? Look, what is this!"

Saying this, she took out a piece of paper from her bosom in irritation and slammed it onto the table in front of Qin Yi.

"Open your eyes and look clearly, don’t say I’ve wronged you!"

Qin Yi had no choice but to pick it up, held it in his hand and looked at it. It was just a contract of servitude. He looked at it for quite a while but couldn’t figure out what the issue was. Consequently, he looked up at Su Pan’er, gesturing the contract in his hand.

"What is this?"

"Can’t you read the words on it? It’s a contract of servitude!"

"I know it’s an indenture... so, is it this maidservant who did something wrong? If you want to dismiss her or sell her directly, it’s up to you. Today is a good day; it’s not worth getting upset over this and harming yourself."

With a serious look on his face, Qin Yi made his case. No matter how Su Pan’er looked at him, she could find no sign of guilt.
