The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 552: Moved Into a New Courtyard

Housekeeper Lin was somewhat surprised.

This Miss Gu, without even a nanny or maid by her side, was evidently from a modest background, yet her words didn’t sound ignorant; clearly, she was aware of the affairs inside these deep courtyards.

Her words were indeed double-edged.

He respectfully said, "Yes, rest assured, Miss, I will certainly arrange for several clean maids to go over."

Gu Yunjiao nodded towards him, "Thank you, Head Steward."

"Cai Ping, pack up, we’re moving house."

Mrs. Chen sighed and went to pack up as well.

She was extremely reluctant to live in the Duke Mansion, but if Jiao Jiao didn’t leave, how could she dare to take two children out to live alone?

No choice, they could only do this for now.

Fortunately, Sanlang arranged a yard for her and the children, saying that when they grew older, they could separate the yards.

There wasn’t much to begin with, so it was quickly packed.

Gu Yunjiao didn’t need to do anything; she simply rode a carriage to her newly assigned yard.

Her yard was right behind Jiang Youzhi’s, with the back corner door of Jiang Youzhi’s yard diagonally opposite her front door.

Upon entering the yard, a row of maids and older women greeted her respectfully.

Then a nanny stepped forward to greet her, "The servant’s surname is Wang, and I will serve the Miss from now on."

Gu Yunjiao noticed that Nanny Wang seemed rather plump, "Please rise, Nanny."

She then glanced over the maids, each appearing diligent and honest.

She trusted that Housekeeper Lin had chosen them, and there shouldn’t be any of Aunt Su’s people; if there were, then Housekeeper Lin had misjudged.

And since Housekeeper Lin hadn’t been replaced by Lady Wu, it meant he was the Duke’s man, so she could be at ease.

Upon entering the house, the bedroom, study, and sitting area were all meticulously arranged.

The house furnishings were also extremely exquisite.

Not long after, Lady Wu personally came over with maids and older women, one maid holding a bundle, and another holding two boxes.

Lady Wu smiled and said, "Inside is a fur coat and skirt, as well as a large cloak."

"I had someone rush to make them these past few days, just in time to wear for the New Year tomorrow."

"Tomorrow, the Princess will come over, along with two families of the old Duke’s brothers."

Gu Yunjiao understood now; this was to ensure she was properly dressed and didn’t lose face.

Lady Wu then pointed to the two boxes, "Those are two sets of jewelry, selected from the treasury. I don’t know whether you’ll like them."

Gu Yunjiao replied, "If Madam has chosen them, they must be beautiful."

Lady Wu laughed again, "There are many affairs during the New Year, after we’re done with this busy period, we’ll arrange ’that matter.’" She said, winking at Gu Yunjiao.

Gu Yunjiao immediately understood which matter it was, so she had to pretend to be shy and look down.

Lady Wu got up, "I still have a pile of things to do; I’ll go get busy now."

Gu Yunjiao accompanied Lady Wu to the main gate before returning.

Before long, a young maid outside reported, "Miss, the Young Master is here."

Jiang Youzhi walked in with a bundle in hand, taking large strides.

Gu Yunjiao noticed his nose tip was red from the cold, "Where did you go in such cold weather?"

Jiang Youzhi said, "I went to the Princess Mansion."

A maid named Cai Zhu stepped forward intending to help Jiang Youzhi remove his cloak, but Jiang Youzhi shot her a cold glance, causing Cai Zhu to retreat a bit flustered.

Jiang Youzhi walked up to Gu Yunjiao, "You undo it for me."

Gu Yunjiao whispered, "Why not let the maid help? Did I coat my hands with some fragrant balm?"
