Chapter 145
In the Qingmu courtyard, after the maids tidied up, Shen Qingli and Mrs. Zhu stayed in the courtyard.
But not long after, Luo Yi, the maid serving their mother and daughter, came back with a blushing face, "Ma'am, miss, this servant just went to the kitchen to get some food for the two masters, but the people in the kitchen only put This kind of leftovers was given to the slaves."
As Luo Yi said, he opened the brocade box in his hand.The food in the brocade box is not only not good in appearance, but it also makes people have no appetite. It is not as good as the average servant in the house.
Looking at those meals, Mrs. Zhu's eyes darkened, but in order not to cause trouble, she still said, "This can't be blamed on the kitchen, we came back at a bad time. Maybe there are only these meals left in the kitchen. Forget it, let's make do with it." Let's eat."
Seeing how weak his mistress was, Luo Yi's eyes turned red again, and he pointed to his flushed cheeks, and said, "Madam is not. When the servants went, the kitchen was cooking bird's nest for Miss San. They were also from the mansion. Miss, our lady is still the daughter-in-law of the mansion, why should she climb on the head of the young lady as a concubine, she eats the bird's nest, and the young lady eats leftovers. The slaves were so angry at the time, they quarreled with those people in the kitchen A few words. Who would have thought that the servant girl next to the third lady would slap the servant girl on the face as soon as she ran over. Ma'am, miss, you should make decisions for the servant girl. What they slap is not the servant girl, but the face of the lady. .”
Luo Yi cried, Zhu frowned slightly, and sighed softly, "It's because I, the mistress, have no skills, and you are the only ones who have been hurt by me."
Zhu's eyes turned red, and she lowered her tone, "Luo Yi, look at me as the mistress, let's forget it this time. The third lady and Aunt Zhang are really not easy to provoke. I'm afraid that if we If you offend them, they will come to make trouble for A Li again. It took a long time for A Li to recover a bit..."
Zhu's timid character made Luo Yi feel even more wronged.Even Zhu Shi's dowry mother, Wang Naomo, sighed and persuaded Zhu Shi, "Ma'am, the matter of Luo Yi is indeed not a big deal. But Ma'am, if you continue to indulge Aunt Zhang and the others like this, they will only become more unscrupulous." Do it on the heads of the madam and the young lady. There are some words that the old slave should not have said. But during the time when the madam and the young lady were away, Aunt Zhang took the third lady and the others to the Qingmu courtyard and took the young lady away. And some jewelry from my wife. At that time, the old slave couldn’t bear it and said a few words to Aunt Zhang, and Aunt Zhang went directly to the master to complain. The master even fined the old slave.”
As Zhu's dowry mother, Wang Momo watched how Zhu's headed mistress swallowed her anger.
In the past, she loved Mrs. Zhu very much. Whenever she was made things difficult, she, the old nanny, would always be by her side to comfort her and advise her, hoping that her wife could regain the favor of the Prime Minister.
But ever since the eldest lady was caused by the second and third misses in the mansion to fall into the lake and fell into a coma, she changed her mind, blindly forbearance, and would not make the enemy grateful.
Even her close nurse persuaded her like this, Zhu's face turned pale and helpless, "Nurse, you also know that in this mansion, I bear the title of 'mother' on the surface. Come on, besides you, who else in the mansion will listen to me. Mr. Xiang is doting on Aunt Zhang now, if we make things worse, Mr. Xiang will only..."
Facing his own mother who couldn't support her, Shen Qingli hated iron for being weak.She walked up to Mrs. Zhu gracefully, "Mother, I think what Wang Momo said is right. You are kind-hearted, and you can't bear to tear yourself apart with Aunt Zhang. But have you ever thought about it, just because you are The aunt in this mansion, A Li is your daughter. Our mother and daughter occupy the positions of the aunt and daughter. Aunt Zhang and the others will fight us no matter what. Even if the father promised Aunt Zhang before They want to promote her as an equal wife. When Aunt Zhang's status is promoted, they will also regard our mother and daughter as thorns in their eyes."
Less meat, more wolves.
It's no wonder Aunt Zhang and the others don't think about the position of Mrs. Xiangfu.
Shen Qingli used to be curious about how a Zuo Xiangye like Shen Haoxuan would marry such a timid woman as her mother.And she hasn't abolished her wife's position for so many years.
Later she asked Luo Yi, Luo Yi told her quietly.
Her mother, the Zhu family, and the empress of the dynasty were cousins.Although their two cousins are not very close, they are still relatives.If Shen Haoxuan abolished Zhu's position as mistress, wouldn't that be slapping the Empress in the face?
Therefore, the Zhu family has been able to "occupy" the position of the mistress of the Xiangfu for so many years.But it's just a name and has no real power.
"Ali, the mother you are talking about doesn't know. It's just that your father loves Aunt Zhang, and Aunt Zhang is determined to give birth to a son for your father. If we fight with them, it will only be us who will be unlucky."
Zhu was deeply afraid that her daughter would challenge Aunt Zhang and the others over her own strength, so she hurriedly persuaded her.
"Mother, our situation is bad enough. No matter how much you anger Aunt Zhang, you will end up like this. If that's the case, why do you want to wrong yourself so much?"
In the prime minister's mansion before, she didn't take good care of her body and couldn't do much.
Today is different, after she sold her mother's dowry secretly, they no longer need to act according to Shen Haoxuan's face.
"Luo Yi, when we entered the mansion just now, we saw that all kinds of security in the mansion have been tightened. Are there any guests in the mansion?" She made up her mind, and she looked at Luo Yi with resolute eyes.
"Miss, that's right. It seems that Prince Gao from the Northern Qi Dynasty is here..." Luo Yi replied alertly.
Mrs. Zhu still wanted to talk to her daughter again, but Shen Qingli had already walked out of the room with Luoyi's hand.Mrs. Zhu hurriedly asked Nanny Wang to stop Shen Qingli.
However, Wang Momo pressed Zhu Shi on the mahogany carved chair, and persuaded her in a soft voice, "Ma'am, don't you think that although the young lady won't remember the past after waking up, she is no longer the one who can only hide and hide?" Is there a young lady behind you? The old slave thinks that the young lady is right, we have been forced by Aunt Zhang and the others to the point where we can't get any worse, so let's just make a fuss."
Mrs. Zhu was still worried, but she saw the relaxed expression on Madam Zhang's face.She could only temporarily suppress the uneasiness in her heart, and sighed faintly.
Shen Qingli and Luo Yi had just come out of Qingmu Courtyard, and before they had walked far, they saw a group of maids not far in front of them, surrounded by a woman in a blue pleated skirt, coming towards them.
The woman's face was petite, and the spring sunshine poured down from the branches she walked by, making her face white and translucent.
Luo Yi knew that this was the first time her young lady saw someone coming after she fell into a coma, so she whispered in her ear, "Miss, she is Miss San."
Is she Shen Qingwu, the third lady of Zuo Xiangfu?
It was the first time for Shen Qingli to meet her cheap little sister, and it was even more strange than imagined.
When Shen Qingli saw Shen Qingwu, Shen Qingwu also saw her.She immediately twisted her slender waist and walked in front of Shen Qingli.
"Elder Sister, I just heard from people in the mansion that you are back." Shen Qingwu opened her mouth with a look of contempt and arrogance, making her otherwise stunning face a bit hideous.
Shen Qingli still had a mask on her face.
She had a strong premonition, since she met Shen Qingwu here.Shen Qingwu would definitely not let her go so easily.
Just as Shen Qingli thought, the next moment, Shen Qingwu stepped forward, holding Shen Qingli's arm lightly with one hand, with a sisterly look on her face, "It just so happened, my sister just wanted to take a walk in the garden. Since I saw my sister here, and we sisters haven't seen each other for a long time. Why don't we go together."
He was asking Shen Qingli with a smile on his lips, but she had already held Shen Qingli in his arms and dragged her forward.
Shen Qingli saw her pulling her arm and heading towards the wing in the backyard where the distinguished guests were entertained.There was a flash of light in her eyes, and she pressed her brows lightly, but she didn't let go of Shen Qingwu's arm that was holding her.
There is a garden in the backyard of Zuo Xiangfu.
On the other side of the garden is the wing room used by Zuo Xiangfu to entertain distinguished guests.
Shen Qingli heard from Luo Yi before that Shen Haoxuan arranged the distinguished guests in the backyard wing.
Shen Qingwu walked to the garden and didn't go any further.She stopped and turned her head to look at her maid and mother, "My eldest sister and I have something private to say alone, so you all go down first."
Shen Qingwu's maids and nuns gloated over Shen Qingli's misfortune, then retreated and left.On the other hand, Luo Yi was worried and sweated for Shen Qingli in his heart.
Shen Qingwu looked at Luo Yi again, "You go down too."
How dare Luo Yi leave.But Shen Qingli glanced at her, and said softly, "You go down first, too." If you don't leave, Shen Qingwu won't be able to sing this play.
Luo Yi was still worried, and Shen Qingli winked at Luo Yi again.Only then did Luo Yi reluctantly leave.
There were no other servants around, and Shen Qingwu pointed at a crabapple tree not far away with a charming face, and said with a smile, "Sister, the flowers on that crabapple tree are so beautiful."
"Does it look good? Why don't I think so?" Shen Qingli said lazily.
Shen Qingwu pulled Shen Qingli's arm again, coquettishly, "Sister, I want to pick a crabapple flower back. Help me pick it."
Shen Qingli wanted to see what tricks her cheap concubine was playing.So she went up to the crabapple tree, reached out and picked a crabapple.
Turning around to turn around, she suddenly heard a burst of loud applause.
Shen Qingli's heart skipped a beat, and she took a closer look. Shen Qingwu slapped her own cheeks several times with both hands bowed left and right.After these slaps, Shen Qingwu's face immediately swelled up.
It happened that at this moment, Zuo Xiang Shen Haoxuan hurried over to Zuo Xiang's mansion.
As soon as she saw Shen Haoxuan, Shen Qingwu let out a "sob" and ran towards Shen Haoxuan crying.
"Wuuu, dad, big sister hit me just now!" Shen Qingwu cried while lying in Shen Haoxuan's arms.But from an angle that others couldn't see, she glanced at Shen Qingli proudly.
