Chapter 5
On the second day, just after the time of day, Chu Ruoying got up early, and Lixia reached out behind her to tie a simple bun for her, and tied it loosely with jade hairpins, with purple kite-style tassels hanging from her ears.
After doing all this, Li Xia retreated quietly, "Miss, Second Miss entered the ancestral hall yesterday."
Chu Ruoying nodded faintly, "She won't be quiet, just watch her."
After Chu Ruoying had eaten her meal, before she walked out of the courtyard, a man in green clothes and a maid's hair accessory came towards her. Seeing that she had already left the room, she quickened her pace, walked in front of her, and bowed her head. Said: "Miss, madam, please go."
Chu Ruoying nodded with a slight smile, followed the maidservants towards the Dangui Garden, entered the Dangui Garden, and there were three aunts sitting in the hall.
The people in the front hall were all waiting for Chu Ruoying, and some even got a little impatient, and said coldly, "Miss is so arrogant, let a whole room of elders wait for you alone."
The one who spoke was Madam Ye's previous maid, and now Aunt Yun. When she said this, the faces of the other two aunts showed a hint of ridicule.
"What Aunt Yun said is true, but" Chu Ruoying narrowed her eyes slightly, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, looked at her sharply and said coldly: "Madam has not yet spoken, you little aunt Who gave you the guts!"
Aunt Yun's complexion turned pale immediately, she picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes slightly, she was quite aggrieved and said: "Miss dislikes her status as a concubine and is not qualified to speak. The concubine just thinks that the eldest lady came a bit late, After making Madam wait for so long, it's not good to hear about it, so why should Missy say that."
Chu Ruoying glanced at Aunt Yun faintly, the speed of this face change is really amazing, seeing the tears in the corners of her eyes is really pitiful, she couldn't help but smiled lightly: "I appreciate Aunt Yun's kindness, but Auntie It seems that I have forgotten my identity, and I don’t even need to be polite when I see a young lady like me, but I still feel that you, a concubine, are more honorable than this young lady.”
At this moment, Aunt Yun suddenly remembered that she was just a concubine, and Chu Ruoying was a concubine, and according to the rules, she should salute her.However, Aunt Yun's complexion changed when she said these few words that seemed to be ridiculed, but she said impulsively: "It's just a girl from the countryside."
"Aunt Yun!" Hearing this, Li Xia immediately stepped forward and glared, "Aunt Yun, you are just a concubine in the mansion, what right do you have to talk to the eldest lady like this, the lady has been resting outside these years, and now she is returning to the mansion. If this kind of treatment goes to the master, the servants will not be afraid, let's see how the master judges!"
Hearing this, Aunt Yun's face immediately turned pale, remembering the strictness of the master's family management, and the fact that he hated chores in the backyard the most on weekdays, she immediately looked at Madam Ye for help.
At this moment, Mrs. Ye finally smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I can't blame Ying'er for this matter, this place is far away from Sheng Junior Court, so it's understandable for me to be late." Chu Ruoying said, "Sit down, Yinger."
Chu Ruoying glanced at Madam Ye indifferently, seeing that Chu Lie was still sitting there drinking tea, without any other reaction, she said softly, "Madam is gentle with others, and if the news gets out, people who know will say that Aunt Yun is arrogant, If someone doesn't know, I'm afraid Madam is not strict in discipline."
A glint of gloom flashed across Mrs. Ye's eyes. She wanted to let the matter go and make peace, but unexpectedly, Chu Ruoying thought of her every word.
Suddenly his face darkened, and he was about to speak when he heard a solemn voice, "What happened?"
Chu Lie walked in with big strides, and immediately someone went up and whispered.
Seeing Aunt Yun's pale face, Chu Lie's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly, "Since Yunyao doesn't obey the rules, you should move to the courtyard on the west side today, so that you will be able to appreciate Yinger."
Yun Yao's complexion suddenly changed, and she fell to the ground crying, "Master, the courtyard on the west side is too remote, maids and concubines can't go there."
Chu Lie looked at Yunyao crying like a weak willow supporting the wind, and said calmly, "Why can't we go?"
"Okay, okay." At this moment, Madam Ye smiled and said, stood up and said to Chu Lie: "Aunt Yun has always been like this, she is outspoken, so don't worry about it, master." Then she looked at the kneeling on the ground Aunt Yun said sternly: "Hurry up and admit your mistake to Miss."
Aunt Yun got up immediately, bowed to Chu Ruoying's place with a pale face, and saluted, "My concubine knows I'm wrong, Miss, please forgive my concubine."
Chu Ruoying turned slightly to avoid it, and said indifferently: "Aunt Yun is polite, Yinger is new to the mansion, and I hope Auntie can give me some advice if I don't understand."
"Father, why is this so?" Chu Ruoying gracefully turned around, obediently supported Chu Lie to sit down, her skin was as white as white jade against the light blue clothes, and then smiled slightly, "Yinger has never been filial in these years, Although Aunt Yun has made mistakes, she has served my father for many years, so small punishments and big punishments are fine."
Hearing what Chu Ruoying said, Madam Ye's eyes flashed darkly, while Chu Lie narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up and down at his daughter, then said to Aunt Yun with a cold face, "Since Yinger Pleading, I will kneel in the courtyard for an hour later, and the courtyard will be spared."
"master"
"There is no need to discuss this matter." Chu Lie suddenly slapped the table and stood up, looked at Aunt Yun who was crying like pears and rain, and said coldly: "I have treated you well these years, and now you are getting more and more insatiable. "
These words were so serious that Aunt Yun suddenly trembled, she didn't dare to say any more, she just looked at Madam Ye at the side.
At this time, if Mrs. Ye didn't know how to judge the situation, she would be sorry for the prosperous life she had lived in the General's Mansion for many years.Mrs. Ye averted her gaze lightly. Seeing this, Aunt Yun also knew that she must be punished. She lowered her head and said with a bit of grievance in her voice, "Yes, I obey."
Looking at her delicate appearance, with tears stained on her fine eyelashes and her obedient appearance, Chu Lie's face softened a bit, after all, he had loved her a little bit before, nodded and said: "Understood, just it is good."
"After all, Ying'er just came back, and she doesn't know much about the mansion, but there are only two big maids who brought her with her. Now that she has returned to the mansion, but it can't be done, I will let people go over in the afternoon, and pick two first-class maids to stay with me first. , I am picking some second-class maids, but the third-class maids are not in a hurry, and they will be added slowly." Madam Ye said this, with the appearance of a loving mother.
"In a few days, I'll go to the shop to pick out some new materials and patterns, and make some clothes I like." Madam Ye looked at Chu Ruoying, the sharpness in her eyes flashed, and she said with a smile.
"Everything is up to Madam." Chu Ruoying smiled and nodded slightly.
