C87 I Have a New Little Girl!

Hongyu suddenly knelt down, “Miss, Miss, please give me a bowl of rice. I, I can sit anywhere. Please take me in, Miss.”

She even kowtowed twice to Lan Qingqian.

“Me?” Lan Qingqian had never thought of taking her in. After all, she was the one in the residence. The old son-in-law had the final say!

However, she couldn’t refuse him. Hongyu continued to cry, “I don’t have a place to stay in the city. I’m afraid I’ll freeze to death. Miss, please pity me. I can go back and help Miss boil water and serve Miss.”

Lan Qingqian couldn’t bear to see this. She could only plead with Gu Jun’an, “Old son-in-law, can we keep her?”

“There are enough people in the residence!” How could Gu Jun’an not see through this little beggar’s thoughts? It was just that the little thing was soft-hearted and purposely begged her. If it was him, he would have kicked her away a long time ago.

There were so many pitiful people in the world. Who could save her?

In the end, he still had to rely on himself, not others. He took a small gemstone from the little girl’s sleeve and threw it on the ground, “This is worth at least one hundred taels of silver. Take it. Don’t follow us anymore.”

“I, I don’t want money. I just want a home. I don’t want to be bullied!” Hongyu glanced at the thing on the ground and didn’t reach out to pick it up.

Lan Qingqian heard her say that she just didn’t want to be bullied and had a home. She didn’t feel very good. She wavered and reached out to grab Gu Jun’an’s hand, “Old son-in-law, why don’t we take her home? She doesn’t eat much. She can work for Butler Jiang.”

Gu Jun’an was unwilling to change his expression.

Lan Qingqian continued to hold his hand and said coquettishly, “Husband, please!” Her voice was sweet and soft. It was so cute that it could make blood flow out.

“I promise I won’t cause any trouble in the future! I’ll be a good girl!”

Only then did Gu Jun’an look at Hongyu. “Go to the entrance of the Seventh Prince’s Mansion. If anyone comes out, tell them to bring you to find Jiang Tang.”

He meant that he agreed. Hongyu immediately kowtowed. “Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!”

Gu Jun’an said coldly, “You shouldn’t thank me!”

He turned around and picked up Lan Qingqian. He didn’t want to talk to Hongyu anymore and left.

Lan Qingqian turned around and waved at Hongyu. “I’ll wait for you in the mansion!”

Hongyu picked up the white jade on the ground and immediately asked around for the location of the Seventh Prince’s Mansion. Then, she ran off.

When she returned to the mansion, she took a few bags and put them down. Jiang Tang came with them.

After being washed, Hongyu found two clean clothes and put them on. She looked pretty good.

“Your Highness, what should we do with this Hongyu?”

Hongyu immediately stared at Lan Qingqian. Before Lan Qingqian could say anything, Gu Jun’an said, “Look at where you lack manpower. You can take whoever you want.” He glanced at Hongyu coldly as if he could see through her thoughts.

Since the master would never lack manpower in the yard, Butler Jiang naturally understood what he meant. “Alright, you can follow me. You’re young. Go to the kitchen and follow Mama Zhou to pick vegetables and wash them.”

Jiang Shu was a nice person. Seeing that she was young, he intentionally gave her a lighter job.

A trace of disappointment flashed across Hongyu’s eyes, but she didn’t dare to say anything. She obediently followed him down.

Lan Qingqian was a little disappointed. “Why don’t you let Hongyu follow me? That way, I’ll have a playmate!” In the past, most people in the palace didn’t play with her sincerely.

She longed for companions of the same age!

“This King hired her to do something, not to play with you,” Gu Jun’an scolded coldly.

In fact, he was just worried that someone he wasn’t familiar with would come and look after this little thing. Furthermore, Hongyu was young and had a lot of thoughts. He naturally didn’t want such a person to follow this little thing.

He stained this flawless piece of jade…

Hongyu lowered her head and picked the vegetables. Mama Zhou was also beside her.

“You only need to pick the vegetables. I’ll wash them. It’s cold these days, so don’t catch a cold. I’ll change you when it’s hot again.” Mama Zhou looked at her young age and felt pity. She was willing to take care of her.

“Thank you, Mama!” Hongyu said obediently.
