After the marriage, the cousin was spoiled by the whole family of the Marquis's Mansion
Chapter 27: Long Mouth
Chapter 27: Long Mouth
I don’t know if it was because of the prince’s beauty, or because of Rong Peilan’s “drastic measures” the day before that had an effect.
Among the four maids, Mo Lan and Xiang Wu were the most diligent. They helped the young lady to dress and wash every day, and the prince was still as smooth as ever.
On the contrary, Haitang, who showed up first, only entered the house when her master needed service.
Chen Chun was personally selected by Jixing.
She spoke little and always worked silently. She was the smallest of the four maids. She stood there quietly, looking as quiet as a virgin.
Such a petite girl is actually very strong.
In the past, it took two or three maids to move the account books, but Chen Chun could move them all at once.
Rong Peilan felt like she had found a treasure.
"Chen Chun, move out the young lady's two camphorwood boxes." Haitang pointed to the two boxes in the room.
In the past, we had to call the servants from the front yard to do these tasks, but now that Chen Chun is in the yard, it is much more convenient.
Chen Chun grabbed the copper handles on both sides of the box and lifted the box easily.
Even though they already knew how strong Chen Chun was, Haitang and Xiangwu couldn't help but gasp.
Xiang Wu bumped Haitang's arm and said, "Sister Haitang, you can't argue with anyone but Chen Chun. I'm afraid that her punch will kill me."
Haitang glanced at her and said, "Why don't you work harder? You always blame Chenchun for everything. Be careful that she might get angry and kill you with one punch."
Xiang Wu curled her lips, "Mo Lan is the lazy one. The young lady calls her Mo Lan, Mo Lan is lazy. She only knows how to draw eyebrows and eyes every day. The prince doesn't even look at her. She is really self-indulgent."
Haitang stopped talking, opened the camphorwood box, and took out all the clothes inside.
"Xiangwu, take all these to the laundry room."
Xiang Wu was a little reluctant, "Why do you want me to go?"
"Then Chenchun, go to the storeroom and move the heater out."
The heater that had been in the warehouse for half a year was not only heavy but also dusty. Xiangwu reluctantly picked up the pile of clothes.
Seeing Xiangwu leave, Chenchun was about to go to the storeroom, but Haitang pulled him back, "No need to go, I moved out yesterday. I can't bear to see her bossing you around for everything, she should move her lazy bones."
After that, she stretched out her finger and tapped Shen Chun's forehead, "Don't be so honest all the time, just do whatever they tell you to do."
The wind blew gently in Yuhui Garden, and Haitang's beautiful eyebrows stretched. Chen Chun felt that the elder sister who always secretly gave her steamed buns in her memory also had such beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows.
"it is good."
Chen Chun's gentle voice drifted away.
When Rong Peilan returned to Yuhui Garden, Chen Chun was rolling up his sleeves and repairing the swing in the yard.
The hemp rope, as thick as a baby's arm, was tied into a knot in her hands.
Rong Peilan waved at her, "Chen Chun, come with me."
The Zhong family has gradually allowed her to participate in the management of the business, and she visits several shops every day.
The bright summer sun has gradually faded, it is now the time of clear and crisp autumn weather, and there are many more people on the streets than usual.
The carriage was shaking. Chen Chun lowered her head and looked at her rough hands, as if she couldn't believe that she was now the head maid beside the young lady.
She had been sold into the mansion for six or seven years and had always been a servant in the mansion. Because of her beautiful appearance, she was often harassed by the servants from the outer courtyard. Fortunately, she was strong and ordinary servants could hardly get close to her.
The old woman was a gossip and would call her a vixen every time she saw her.
"Shen Chun."
When Chen Chun looked up, she saw the young lady looking at her with a warm smile.
"Give the calligraphy and paintings in the car to Manager Zhou later. I'm going to go to Ruyifang across the street to take a look. You can come back later."
"Yes." Shen Chun nodded.
Ji Yunzhang's birthday is coming up in a few days, and Rong Peilan hasn't decided what birthday gift to give him yet. If it's Kuan Ge'er, a set of four treasures of the study will make him happy for a long time.
It is said that Ruyifang has gathered the best craftsmen in the world, and their skills are no worse than those of the Sanzaosi in the imperial city.
This was the first time that Rong Peilan came alone.
Xie Shuning had accompanied her here twice when she was preparing for her wedding, and the last time she came with Zhong. The mother-in-law waved her hand and ordered a piece of jade with excellent water content for her, and asked the craftsmen to make her a set of head ornaments.
As soon as she entered the door, the shopkeeper recognized her.
"Madam Ji, it just so happens that the jade headpiece has been made. I want to take a look at it."
The shopkeeper had a naive smile on his wealthy face.
"What kind of jade headpiece is this? Why don't you take it out and show it to us?"
The window of the private room on the second floor faced the lobby on the first floor. The window was wide open, and Xie Shuning happened to be standing by the window and saw Rong Peilan alone.
The shopkeeper smiled apologetically, "I only have one set of this headdress. It's not that I don't want to show it to you, but..."
"Just what? Are you afraid that I can't afford it?"
There is another figure in the window. If we use "lotus emerging from water" to describe the delicate beauty of a girl, then this girl can be described as "as beautiful as a peony."
The eldest daughter of the Earl of Pyeongchang, it is said that she looks like her aunt, the imperial concubine in the palace.
The shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead. He couldn't afford to offend any of these distinguished guests. "How could the young lady not be able to afford it? It's just that this jade headpiece is made of jade raw stone that the Marquis's wife had ordered a long time ago, and it was specially made for the young lady."
Did Zhong call Rong Peilan specifically?
Xie Shuning could hardly hold back the jealousy and hatred that was flooding her heart. In her previous life, she had a huge quarrel with Ji Yunzhang in the mansion, but her mother-in-law was like an invisible person.
She wanted to be a housekeeper, but Mrs. Zhong gave her a pile of account books. She had to take care of all the affairs in the mansion. She worked herself to death day after day, but Mrs. Zhong never really handed her the keys and cards.
It was not until Mrs. Zhong passed away that she realized that those humble rice shops of hers were actually so profitable!
If Ji Yunzhang had not squandered his money like water, she would not have envied Rong Peilan for the daily torture and torment she endured.
Liu Qingwan glared at Xie Shuning. Why was she making a fuss when others had already decided on the headgear?
Xie Shuning was unwilling to accept this. In his previous life, Rong Peilan enjoyed all the wealth and glory. In this life, he entered the marquis' mansion and continued to enjoy all the glory.
She just wanted to make Rong Peilan look bad for once, "But our sister Qingwan came to the palace to be presented to the Imperial Concubine, so I'm sure Sister Lan will give her up."
Liu Qingwan frowned. What kind of contribution? Was Xie Shuning going to use her as a raft?
Rong Peilan raised the corners of her lips, as if smiling, "I'm afraid it's not sincere to present the headgear that the Imperial Concubine gave to someone else."
Xie Shuning's expression changed slightly, but Liu Qingwan beside her also changed her expression.
Rong Peilan stopped looking at them and turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Since you happened to be here by chance, take it out and have a look."
"Also, is there any stone left of that jadeite raw stone?"
The shopkeeper said, "There are still some leftovers with very good water content, which are left over from making bracelets and egg-shaped noodles."
"Can you also make some beads and make a bracelet?"
"Yes, Master Ma said yesterday that this material can still be made into a bracelet. It would be a pity to throw it away."
The shopkeeper extended his hand and said, "Young Madam, please come to the private room on the second floor."
Rong Peilan followed the shopkeeper's gesture and went upstairs. "My maid will be here later. Ask her to come up directly."
Seeing that she completely ignored him, Xie Shuning almost crushed the handkerchief in his hand.
Rong Peilan could feel Xie Shuning's gaze from upstairs almost stabbing her to death.
In the past, she lived under someone else's roof and had to endure Xie Shuning's arrogance and tyranny. Now she is married, and it was Xie Shuning who gave her the marriage personally.
She has the confidence and the support. If you still speak in a sarcastic way in front of her, her mouth is not long in vain.
