Chapter 631 She Came Back Again

"I heard that it was a fake pregnancy competing for favor, so I was driven back by His Royal Highness—"

The sun was warm, and in the backyard of the Zhao Mansion, a group of servants were turning over the bedding.

The servants shook out the quilts to dry, and took wooden poles to stretch them out. While they were busy, they talked about new things in the mansion: "Hey, this is really new. The concubines who fell out of favor in ancient times sat in the cold palace until they died of old age. , this man in our mansion is really amazing, he can come back to live with her natal family."

"After all, thanks to the blessings of the Master Xiangye, the old lady, and the eldest lady, the Tian family also doesn't look at the face of the monk or the face of the Buddha."

"Who says it's not, it's just that the lady is suffering. Hey, this good day has only passed half a year, and the baby in her stomach is about to give birth, and she came back like this... I'm afraid our family will be in trouble again." The dog jumped!"

"I want to go with you! That girl is not a vegetarian. Before she was married, she could make our eldest lady's eyes darken. After becoming a princess, she is used to prestige, and now she has all the wealth and glory. No, it's no wonder she's willing."

"Last year, on the first day she came back to the mansion, she used the big kitchen to drive a mother in charge out of the mansion. I don't know whose turn it is to be unlucky this time..."

"Never mind him, can't we afford to provoke her? Don't we have a few maidservants in her room? It's not up to us to intervene in daily life!"

"You put it lightly. She is the master and you are the slave. Where can you hide if she finds fault?" Someone gave her a look and reminded her, "Mother Yuer, don't forget that dinner is for Yan tonight. My sister is preparing beauty soup!"

"What are you afraid of!" Yu'er's mother smiled disapprovingly, "Song's mother, who was next to Da Furen, passed on to me last night, and Da Furen ordered her to come down, explaining that no matter it is windy or raining, she told me to give it to Sister Yan. I can’t even leave out the nourishing soup. If I don’t even understand this instruction, isn’t it for nothing that Madam hurts me?”

"That's what I said, but my sister has Yanyan Tang, but my sister doesn't, so there will inevitably be another disturbance." Someone next to me kindly reminded, "Don't forget, how did Mama Ding get into her bad luck last year... This third lady is really not a talkative master!"

"Hey, the past was the past, and the present is the present." Yu'er's mother sneered, "It's just a useless concubine abandoned by the prince! But if she can stay in the palace, can she return to her natal family? Now that she is back, she must live in peace. She respects her aunt very much. Could it be that she still wants to be domineering?"

"Don't talk too hard, it depends on what the old lady thinks. If the old lady still thinks of her as her favorite, maybe she will still be as happy as the wind or the rain... Let me tell you, Let's not think about getting ahead when we are slaves, let the masters tear it up."

"Then what do you think I should do?" Yu'er's mother became nervous after being persuaded for a long time, "This nourishing soup was originally only for Sister Yan, and she came back suddenly, how can I get an extra bowl?" Come out!"

"This..." A group of servants also had difficulties, "As soon as spring begins, Sister Yan is going to propose a marriage. After drinking this beauty soup for two months, the skin is supple, white and tender. It is dangerous for such a sudden break. Impossible..."

"Yeah, what does the old lady mean, don't you see it? This sister Wei can't be counted on, and now I can only point to sister Yan who can marry a good family..."

"Let's do it that way. I see that there are two ounces of pueraria powder in the kitchen, so I can make a bowl for her too? As for the bird's nest maw, even Sister Yu didn't eat it, so she just endured it." Bar."

"Then you go, the sun will set soon, and the old lady will have food in the room, so hurry up and stew it and send it over."

"Hey, tell me what's going on, a useless concubine, why don't you just stay in the cold palace..."

The servants scattered in all directions, and the chattering voice was transmitted beyond the wall without any hesitation.

As soon as Zhao Xiwei stepped into the old lady's main room, he could feel the aura around him.

one, two, three...

Along the way, there were at least thirty servants staring at him like thieves.

And what made her most uncomfortable was a servant girl standing by the table, serving meals.

"Old lady, this is the beauty soup for Sister Yan." A little maid came over with a tray, and the maid immediately took a step, bowed forward and picked up the stew pot on the tray, and placed it respectfully in front of Zhao Chengyan.

"Well, not bad!" The old lady nodded with a smile, "Sister Yan's blood is not very good, and she drank soup for a whole winter last year, and her complexion finally became a little rosy..."

"Yes." The servant woman got the approval of the old lady, and then her eyes widened, and she quickly glanced across Zhao Xiwei's face, then she took another stew pot, brought it to her, and said with a smile: "This soup is originally I made it for Sister Yan by myself. Now that the third lady came back suddenly, the servants didn't have time to prepare it. Fortunately, the kitchen still has the kudzu root powder left over from the Chinese New Year. After working all afternoon, I just made this bowl for you. Health-preserving soup, after all, is the wish of this servant, please don't dislike it."

Zhao Xiwei's eyes fell on the "Health Soup", and he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, looking at the servant in front of him.

Originally, she was pregnant, and she didn't want to drink any messy soup...

As for the "beautifying soup" specially for Zhao Chengyan, she was not interested either.

But what does it mean to make such a bowl of "health soup" that is so clear that you can see people's shadows?
She didn't speak, just a meaningful look, which made the maid feel a chill down her back, hurriedly stepped back half a step, forced a smile, and said: "If Miss San doesn't like it, this servant will do it again... just ...It's just that the bird's nest maw used in this beauty soup was subsidized by the lady herself..."

Yu'er's mother felt that she was extremely cautious, not to mention she was in front of the old lady and the eldest lady. If this girl was going to have a fit, she didn't dare to go too far...

She was thinking about it when suddenly she sneered.

"I don't quite understand what Mom said." Zhao Xi spoke slowly, but gave people inexplicable pressure, "It means that if I want to eat something good, I have to pay for it myself? Is that what you mean? ?Ok?"

"Slave..." Yu'er's mother shrank her head and looked at Xu Yunjiao as if asking for help.

It stands to reason that at such a time, a qualified headed mistress should show a fair and just attitude on the surface no matter how dissatisfied she is with her children in private.

But when did Xu Yunjiao become a qualified mistress?

When Zhao Xiwei asked back coldly, she was already so angry that she rushed to the top of her head.

At that moment, regardless of the fact that she was still pregnant, she stood up with her belly upright: "What do you mean? Your father has been recuperating at home for half a year and has no salary. Food and clothing are used. The expenses of this big family all refer to my dowry." Ben!"
