Meng Zhinian had no doubts, but said happily: "That's a coincidence."

"What are you doing here?" Li Yanxu looked down at her.

"Oh, I helped someone grind the tofu, and they promised to give me a bowl of tofu. It tasted pretty good. Do you want to drink it?"

Li Yanxu shook his head and signaled that he would not drink it. He admired the woman in his heart. If an ordinary person had encountered this kind of experience like her, even if he didn't find a place to hide and cry, he would at least be dejected. Unexpectedly, she could still enjoy herself in such a situation with a bowl of tofu.

"Aren't you supposed to be in the Yongchang Marquis' Mansion at this time? Why is it here?" He wanted to know what happened between her and Zou Chengji, so that he let Zou Chengji cut off her back like this.

"I helped Mr. Zou win a bet, and he promised to let me go, but I didn't expect him to be so excessive, really making me unable to find work..."

After hearing Meng Zhinian's ins and outs of the matter, Li Yanxu shook his head in his heart. Why did this little Marquis Zou want to get along with a girl? He thought that although this little Marquis Zou was a little domineering, he was still very kind. Now it seems that he had read it wrongly.

"Then where are you going to live tonight?"

"I heard that there is a dilapidated temple outside the city, and I plan to go there to see it." She said this without any frustration, as if she was talking about something very ordinary.

Li Yanxu really didn't know whether to praise her for being optimistic or saying that she was very arrogant.

"Come with me, at least deal with this tonight first."

"oh."

Meng Zhinian didn't ask where he took him or what he did. She completely trusted the man. He said he wanted to follow him, so he would follow him.

Li Yanxu brought Meng Zhinian all the way back to the Li Mansion. But as soon as he got off the carriage, Meng Zhinian couldn't help frowning and bowed slightly.

"What's wrong?" Li Yanxu saw her strangeness and couldn't help asking.

"Somewhat uncomfortable..." In fact, she felt a little uncomfortable just now when she was in the carriage, but she just held it over and over.

Li Yanxu quickly invited the doctor to come over. This doctor often went in and out of the Li family. In recent years, he has been taking Li Yanxu's pulse and treating him. He couldn't help but show some curiosity about the sudden addition of a young woman in Li Gongzi's yard.

If I remember correctly, since Mr. Li was fourteen years old, there would be no longer a maid to serve him. There were only two servants in this huge yard, He Fei and Mama Fu. Now, a young and beautiful woman suddenly came, so why wouldn’t she be curious?

"This girl's spleen and stomach are very delicate. Maybe she ate some rough things in the past two days, which made her spleen and stomach uncomfortable. It's okay. Just take some medicinal food to nourish her spleen and stomach."

As he said that, the doctor picked up the pen and wrote a medicinal recipe. When Mother Fu saw him put the pen, she quickly reached out to take it. Then, He Fei sent the doctor out.

Meng Zhinian said embarrassedly: "Please trouble you, my spleen and stomach are really not strong, why is it so unsolid?" At the end of his speech, his tone was very annoyed.

Li Yanxu laughed when he heard this, "Your spleen and stomach will feel wronged after hearing what you said."

Mother Fu, who was beside him, couldn't help laughing, and then hurriedly said, "Then I'll go and let the kitchen make medicinal food."

After Fu's mother left, Li Yanxu sat down beside Meng Zhinian's bed and said in a light voice: "If you have no other plans yet, just stay here first. It just so happens that there is a maid by me. If you want, you can give it a try."

"Okay, okay." Meng Zhinian nodded immediately. Mr. Li is so good. Being a maid by him must be much better than being in the Yongchang Marquis' Mansion.

"You should take a rest first. It's not too late to work after you have a good body."

After Mother Fu learned that the young master was going to keep the girl by his side as a maid, she couldn't help but be surprised, "Young master, have you figured it out? What if she is like the one before..."

"This girl is simple-minded and no different from a child. Mom doesn't have to worry. As for what she should do, it's up to your mother to arrange."

"yes."

Mother Fu brought the medicinal food prepared in the kitchen into Meng Zhinian's room. When Meng Zhinian saw her coming in, she hurried forward to pick it up.

"No, you can sit there, you don't need a patient," Mother Fu said with a smile.

Meng Zhinian sat down obediently. This mother Fu looked very kind, just like Mr. Li.

"Come on, eat it quickly, it's all medicinal foods that nourish the spleen and stomach."

"Thank you, Mom Fu."

Meng Zhinian sat there eating medicinal food. Mother Fu looked at her from the side, observing the girl's behavior, she was very elegant and polite, and looked exactly like those ladies from the family. I don't know why she fell to such a level. However, the young master ordered that the girl might be in the family. Don't mention these things that will make her sad for the time being, so she resisted her curiosity and didn't ask.

"Young Master has told me to keep you, so you don't have to worry. You are easy to serve and you don't have much to do. You just have some work to serve tea and water." As he said that, Mom Fu smiled again, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Even if you work, you have to wait until you get ready. You can raise it in the next two days."

"No, I'm fine, I'm better now."

Mother Fu looked at her and smiled. No wonder the young master said that she was simple in nature. Look at how clean her eyes were, she looked like a careless person.

But... "Since you are going to serve the young master, there is a very important thing, I have to tell you in advance."

"Mama Fu, please tell me."

"Actually... I used to have maids to serve the young master, but later, there were maids who had no idea about the young master. The young master was so upset that he simply didn't want to serve the young master. It was precisely because of this that over the years, only He Fei and I were by my side. Zhimian, with those lessons from the past, you must not be foolish."

Meng Zhinian asked in confusion: "What kind of thoughts shouldn't have?"

"Just... don't fall in love with the young master."

...

"Where are you going?" Mother Fu took the cloak handed over by Li Yanxu. She just came out of Zhimian's room and didn't see the young master anymore.

"I went to Yongchang Marquis' Mansion." Li Yanxu said lightly.

"Where is Miss Meng?"

"Where I'm in the room, I'll let her take a break for two days."

"Well, I'll go see her and have something to say to her."

After a moment, Li Yanxu came to Meng Zhinian's room and handed her what she had in her hand.

"What?" Meng Zhinian took it in confusion.

"This is the contract you signed at the Marquis' Mansion. Remember, you should be very cautious whenever you involve the contract in the future. When Mr. Zou promised to let you go, you should return the signed contract, otherwise he could still use this contract to sue you at the government. At that time, he had a contract in hand, and you would not be able to explain it clearly with just a mouth."

"But... a gentleman's promise is more than a thousand pounds, and he promised me..." In her perception, if she promised, she agreed, and how could she make a mistake to go back on her word?

"But not everyone is a gentleman, and you are likely to encounter villains."

"But...I..." Meng Zhinian finally sighed in annoyance, "This is too complicated... Everything here is different from what I imagined." Her days were very simple in the past, and her verbal promise was also a promise. No one would regret it, so she would not think about taking the contract back.

"It's okay, I will teach you slowly in the future."
