“Where is she?” Wei Yuewu asked after pondering for a moment.

“She’s at a pavilion in the courtyard. She seems to be fidgeting with her belonging!” Wei Yuewu asked Shufei to keep an eye on that woman since she had planned to go and take a look at this moment. To her surprise, that woman would leave the courtyard first.

“Let’s go and take a look,” Wei Yuewu said indifferently.

In a pavilion in the garden, Concubine Yang was staring blankly at a hairpin in her hand. She was sent here to be Second Master’s concubine. Because her last name was Yang, the people in the mansion called her Concubine Yang.

However, because there were too many women who were sent in at that time, they were all arranged to stay in the same courtyard. Although Concubine Yang was one of Second Master’s concubines, she had only seen his figure from afar and had never had any close contact with him.

Among the concubines who were sent to the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang by the four heirs-apparent, she was not the prettiest, so her existence was even more unremarkable.

She had not served Second Master yet, so she could not be considered a real concubine. Although the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang gave each of them a maid who served them, there were some things that she had to do on her own.

It was not a big deal actually, because they were not here to enjoy the leisure and comfortable life in the first place. However, it was quite boring to waste their time with nothing to do here. Even the prettier ones did not have a chance to meet Second Master, so Concubine Yang had long given up on the idea that Second Master would take a fancy to her.

“This hairpin looks so delicate!” A gentle voice came from beside her ear, and the person interrupted Concubine Yang’s dazed moment.

Concubine Yang raised her head in surprise and saw a beautiful girl with a delicate face. She was prettier than the most beautiful ones living in the courtyard that Concubine Yang had seen. However, what shocked Concubine Yang the most was the girl’s clear and cold eyes. Those eyes seemed to have a magic power that could penetrate one’s soul, and they made her feel a chill down her spine.

She felt as if she was unable to hide the deepest thought in her heart from those enchanting eyes.

Concubine Yang had been in the mansion for only a short period of time and had been staying in the courtyard obediently, so she didn’t recognize Wei Yuewu. Only recently did she come out of the courtyard to take a stroll around. However, she was good at reading people, so she stood up abruptly.

Her maid, who was assigned to her, recognized Wei Yuewu. She hurriedly bowed. “Greetings, Sixth Young Lady!”

Sixth Young Lady? Concubine Yang’s heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly bowed as well.

Although she did not go out of the courtyard often, she had heard of the legendary Sixth Young Lady. Moreover, Sixth Young Lady was now pretty much favored by Lord Marquis, so she couldn’t afford to offend her.

“Who are…” Wei Yuewu sized her up cautiously.

“Sixth Young Lady, this is Concubine Yang, and she was sent here as Second Master’s concubine by the Heir-apparent of Duke Lu,” the maid introduced in a soft voice.

“Oh, so you are Second Master’s concubine sent by the Heir-apparent of Duke Lu! The hairpin is really pretty!” Wei Yuewu smiled and looked at the hairpin in Concubine Yang’s hand. It was a very delicate hairpin and had the latest design on the market. It was very beautiful.

Despite its latest design, it was not very previous because there was no gem on it. It was beautiful because of its exquisite design.

In fact, this kind of hairpin could be bought in any of the big jewelry shops. When Wei Yuewu was on the street, she saw several women wearing the same kind of hairpin.

“Oh… I brought it with me when I came here.” Noticing Wei Yuewu’s eager gaze at her hairpin, Concubine Yang retracted her hand slightly and subconsciously avoided Wei Yuewu’s gaze.

“Concubine Yang, did you bring this hairpin from Heir-apparent of Duke Lu’s mansion?” Wei Yuewu smiled and asked gently.

“Yes… yes!” Concubine Yang lowered her head timidly.

“In that case, I shall ask him if there are any other delicate designs when I meet him next time,” Wei Yuewu beamed as if she was very interested in the hairpin.

“N-No, it was not from the Heir-apparent of Duke Lu. It’s my personal belonging. M-My family left it for me,” Concubine Yang stuttered nervously. She looked jittery, and her hands shrank back involuntarily.

She almost hid the hairpin in her sleeve.

“How many family members do you have?” Wei Yuewu stopped asking about the hairpin and changed the subject.

“I don’t have anyone left. My parents passed away long ago, and my siblings and I went our separate ways,” Concubine Yang lamented. Then, she took out a handkerchief and secretly wiped her tears.

She was the woman that Lu Yeli had chosen before, and she was sent to the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang because of her outstanding qualifications and appearance. At the thought of her being alone, she couldn’t help but feel sorrowful. At this moment, she abruptly felt that she had an unpredictable future and did not know where to settle down.

“Concubine Yang, from now on, the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang is your home! You can settle down after you and Second Uncle have children!” With a faint smile, Wei Yuewu turned to leave with Jin Ling and Shufei.

“Concubine, let’s go back too,” the maid tugged at Concubine Yang’s sleeve and said softly.

“Let’s go!” Concubine Yang nodded. She had actually just come out to clear her mind. At this moment, her heart was a mess, and she did not know what to do. That was why she had come out to take a stroll alone.

There were some things that she could not decide on her own.

After she left, a maid walked out from behind a big tree behind the pavilion. She looked in the direction in which Concubine Yang was walking and then turned back to look in the direction where Wei Yuewu had left before. She went in the direction that was opposite to the two of them and hurriedly went back to report…

“Miss, there is something wrong with Concubine Yang. The hairpin is new, and it is clearly the latest style, but Concubine Yang said that she got it from her family,” Jin Ling walked a few steps closer to Wei Yuewu and reminded her.

Jin Ling had seen it clearly before. The hairpin’s color and style were very new, which indicated that Concubine Yang had obtained that hairpin only recently.

As for whether the hairpin was old or new, it was as sure as a gun for Jin Ling.

“Shufei, is this woman the one who spoke to the geomancer?” Wei Yuewu did not directly answer Jin Ling. Instead, she glanced at Shufei, who was beside her.

“Yes, Miss. I was still suspicious before, but now, I am certain that it is this woman!” Shufei nodded with certainty.

She was unable to get a clear sight earlier due to the distance, but this time, she had seen her face clearly.

“I think the geomancer gave her the hairpin!” Wei Yuewu smiled coldly.

“What? How dare he? This is Marquis Mansion!” Shufei was shocked. Although she had heard people talk about this kind of thing, it usually happened in those small-time aristocratic families. How could this kind of scandal happen in a prestigious aristocratic family!

Although a concubine could not be considered a real Master, her status was much higher than that of a maid.

“Why not? He must have already inquired about it. Second Uncle did not even meet these concubines, let alone sleep with them. They are nothing but women with the title of a concubine, and no one takes them seriously,” Wei Yuewu said lightly.

It dawned upon her when she noticed the sadness in Concubine Yang’s eyes. Concubine Yang was lonely and desperate, so she was definitely moved when someone took a fancy to her at this time.

“Miss, what should we do? Should we inform Lord Marquis and ask him to tell Second Master to keep a tight watch on the yard over there?” Jin Ling asked anxiously.

“No, we don’t have to do anything.” Wei Yuewu shook her head and lowered her eyes slightly. “What’s the hurry? Didn’t you see that there was someone else with us just now?”

Coincidentally, that maid, who was hiding, should have been keeping her eyes on Concubine Yang all along. It was just that she did not expect that Wei Yuewu would come over after spotting Concubine Yang. She frantically tried to avoid her, so she looked very sneaky and sheepish. The alert Jin Ling had already noticed her and even secretly pulled Wei Yuewu’s sleeve to signal her to pay attention.

However, Wei Yuewu only managed to see the girl’s back. Even if she saw her face, she might not be able to recognize whose maid she was.

Wei Yuewu was familiar with the few top-level maids in the mansion, but she couldn’t recognize the ones below even if they looked familiar.

It seemed that she wasn’t the only one who had her eyes on this matter. She should lay low and see what that person was planning to do!

As they spoke, they had already arrived at the kitchen. Seeing Wei Yuewu appear with two maids in the kitchen, the nurse-in-charge was startled, but she swiftly came to her senses and bowed respectfully. “Greetings, Sixth Young Lady!”

“Grandmother’s small kitchen was caught on fire. I’m afraid she won’t be able to use it for the next few days. Bring in more food ingredients that are easy to digest and send the food over for Grandmother. Think of some way to make sure that the food is hot upon delivery. It’s cold, and Grandmother won’t be able to withstand the chill due to her old age. She may catch a cold if she eats something cold!”

Wei Yuewu warned as she casually walked around.

It was time to prepare dinner. The kitchen was very busy, and the people were bustling around. When they saw Wei Yuewu, they bowed and continued to work. Only the old maidservant, who was in charge, accompanied Wei Yuewu.

“Sixth Young Lady, don’t worry. I have already asked someone to send the ingredients that are easy to digest over to the kitchen. It’s time to prepare Madam Dowager’s dinner too. Later, I’ll pick an airtight container to put in her food. I won’t let Madam Dowager eat cold food!”

The nurse-in-charge hurriedly promised with a smile as she thought that Wei Yuewu made this trip to the kitchen because she was worried about the food.

“That’s good. What are those?” Wei Yuewu pointed at a medicine pot placed on a stove in the corner and asked in surprise, “Is someone sick?”

“Oh, no. No Masters in the mansion are sick. It’s Madam Dowager’s medicine pot. The medicine is her supplement to nourish her body. Previously, it had been prepared in the small kitchen, but after the fire, the pot was moved here. However, we had never prepared any medicine here, and we didn’t know where to put the pot, so it was casually placed in the corner.”

The nurse-in-charge explained.

“How can you place Grandmother’s medicine pot in such a shady corner? It’s better to put it out here!” Wei Yuewu turned to look and suddenly pointed to a place under the corridor outside. “Why don’t you put it there? You can prepare her medicine there too, right?”

That place was very big, but there were no other objects, and no one was busy there. Compared with the busy and crowded kitchen, the empty space looked abrupt and strange…
