Splendid concubine

Chapter 81 Honey

"What can you say when you hit someone? You can't bully someone just because you are the Lord of Ping'an County. We orphans and widows have no one to sympathize with. It's really miserable." Madam Zhang put down her chopsticks and began to cry.

"Nurse, tell Mrs. Zhang the reason." Liu Ruyi also put down her chopsticks, and greeted Grandma Liu behind her with a half-smile.

After Liu Nanny finished speaking with a straight face, Liu Ruyi smiled and said: "But do you understand? Now that there are few people in your mansion, you are not afraid of exiling the whole family. Our Liu mansion has great achievements, but I am very afraid."

After hearing this, the old lady gave the old lady a hard look, "Is that why you act like a mother?"

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking and continued to eat. The three of Zhang's mothers stared at Liu Ruyi viciously.

However, it didn't take long for the three of Zhang's mothers to ask for Liu Ruyi.

I saw that Mrs. Zhang stopped Liu Ruyi on the way back to the courtyard after dinner, "Second girl, we are a family, and the broken bones are still connected. Now that you have this convenience, you have to let your sister Borrow light."

Naturally, it was about letting the two daughters of the Zhang family learn the rules from Nanny Liu.

"Just now you slandered our young lady for beating people, and now you come over and say that, don't you think I blush for you." Linglong took a step forward, wrinkled her little nose, and said disdainfully.

"Mother begs you to think highly of you." Zhang Ruyu said immediately.

"Oh, our young lady is the goddaughter of the current emperor, so you don't need to look down on me." Linglong had sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and she was not forgiving at all.

Mrs. Zhang immediately grabbed Zhang Ruyu's clothes and reprimanded: "Say less, be careful with your skin."

Zhang Ruyu immediately shrunk his neck and fell silent.

"Auntie, why bother to be so ignorant, this girl is not sensible, I'll punish her when I go back." Saying that, she smiled and gave Linglong an imperceptible wink.

Linglong is the best at winking, and accepts when she sees a deal.

"The elder sister has also returned, and the yard has been tidied up. Tomorrow we will start to learn the rules from Nanny Liu."

Liu Ruyi smiled at the sisters of the Zhang family, "Sisters don't learn the rules well, so you need to work harder." She looked quite earnest.

In desperation, the two daughters of the Zhang family were forced to nod in agreement.

Only then did Liu Ruyi take the maid and left.

"Miss, why do you let them borrow money? They are so annoying."

Linglong complained in dissatisfaction: "Now seeing their proud faces with their nostrils upturned, I want to rush over and slap them a few times."

"Don't worry, I will let you vent your anger in the future, and bear with her for a few days." Liu Ruyi said lightly.

Linglong is an obedient maid after all, although she complained a few words, she still nodded her head to show that she understood.

Early the next morning, when Liu Ruyi went to the newly organized courtyard named Shuxiangyuan, several people except her had already arrived.

As soon as Liu Jiaren saw Liu Ruyi, she immediately jumped up and hugged Liu Ruyi's arm and said, "Second Sister, you're here."

As he said that, he looked aggrievedly at the place where the two young ladies of the Zhang family and Liu Xuanshuang were standing together.

He must have been pissed off by those three people again.

Liu Wanwan couldn't do what Liu Jiaren did, so she also looked at Liu Ruyi tearfully at this moment, and hesitated to speak.

"Be patient for two days, and wait for the second sister to avenge you." Liu Ruyi lowered her voice, one on each side, and patted the shoulders of the two younger sisters.

At this time, the two little girls regarded Liu Ruyi as the backbone, but Liu Ruyi followed suit.

Smiling, she walked towards the three who got together and didn't know what to say and laugh, Liu Ruyi said: "Eldest sister, two cousins, Mother Liu is here, shall we start the class?"

"Those rules, my mother has already asked the mothers in the palace to teach them, and now I am here just to save face, I warn you, don't be shameless." Zhang Ruxue yelled, turning her face left and right , are all purple and crystal clear, obviously those few slaps haven't faded away.

Secretly thinking that Grandma Liu was clever, Liu Ruyi smiled coldly, "I don't know who stopped our master and servant yesterday, begging you to come and learn from Grandma Liu. Besides, Grandma Liu has served the Emperor before." The Empress Dowager's old man is not comparable to any nanny."

Grandma Liu was old and mature, and she was unmoved when she heard Liu Ruyi's words, and stood firmly, "I don't care about it outside, but when I enter this yard, I have the final say on what I say and do. I have served the Empress Dowager for more than 40 years, and now I am over 50 years old. Even the emperor has to be polite to me when I meet him, let alone you. If the reputation of disrespecting the teacher is spread, I don’t need to be criticized, and others will not Definitely."

Before Liu Xuanshuang could say anything, sister Zhang Ruyu's expression changed.

But riding a tiger is hard.

They were all worried that Liu Ruyi would tell Nanny Liu to torture them and embarrass them.

Seeing their expressions, Liu Ruyi immediately said: "Don't show me such a face, I won't act like that, let Mama Liu deliberately embarrass you, the rules are the rules, in this yard, Treat everyone equally, even if I make a mistake, I will be punished the same, and if I don’t make a mistake, no one will embarrass me.”

Hearing this, Liu Xuanshuang and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

For the next day, the young ladies were holding a bowl of water to set the rules, and if they were not careful, they would be sprinkled with water all over their bodies.

Liu Ruyi has suffered all these hardships in her previous life. Even though she was reborn and was not trained again, she still performed to an exceptional standard. But even though Liu Ruyi wanted to impress her, she didn't want to be too showy. The first bowl of water was the second. The bowls of water were also sprinkled on the body like a few young ladies. From the third bowl, it was already exceptionally good, and Mammy Liu praised it.

Seeing her like this, the two young ladies of the Zhang family who claimed to be daughters-in-law were not to be outdone, and gritted their teeth abruptly to try to surpass Liu Ruyi. As a result, the water bowl became more and more unstable, and they spilled bowl after bowl, making their whole body wet Yes, it's embarrassing.

Liu Xuanshuang, on the other hand, stood firmly after pouring three bowls of water, which made Liu Ruyi very satisfied. She knew that the eldest lady asked Liu Xuanshuang to teach her mother earlier, and Liu Ruyi guessed the result. A bureau was set up to wait for Liu Xuanshuang.

Grandma Liu glanced at the sky outside, "It's getting late today, let's all go back and prepare for tomorrow's banquet. Today's practice and the results are obvious to all. The Princess of Ping'an County and Miss Liu live separately, so I have no objections." Bar?"

Sparsely someone responded, "No."

"Since that's the case, then I will reward Ping'an County Lord and Miss Liu each with the reward I got from the emperor." Liu Nanny remained expressionless.

As she said that, Grandma Liu ordered the little maids to take out a jar of honey and two small bowls, each of them dug a spoonful of honey and put them in, "Drink this in the morning, it can beautify your skin, those candied fruit you eat on weekdays, how many It is pickled with sugar, it is not as good as this honey to nourish people, and even if you get honey by chance on weekdays, it is not as good as this imperial gift."

I heard that it can beautify the skin, and when the little girls love beauty, they looked at Liumama eagerly, but Liumama said with a straight face: "From now on, learn the rules. No. 1 and No. 2 will have prizes. It’s good to learn.”

Now, no matter if they are old or young, they all answered very happily.

Taking advantage of her young age, Liu Jiaren asked crisply, "Nurse, will this honey be the same in the future?"

"What's the prize for the day after tomorrow? We'll talk about it after the practice." Nanny Liu said after carefully putting away the jar of honey.

A little disappointed, Liu Jiaren walked out of the yard with her head down.

"Second Sister, is it true that honey can beautify the skin?" Liu Jiaren walked a few steps, looking eagerly at the bowl in Linglong's hand behind Liu Ruyi, and the other little girls were also listening.

"I don't know, but look at those empresses in the palace, they always drink this. The imperial concubine empress told me that drinking a bowl on an empty stomach in the morning and having breakfast later is the best way to support people." It's nonsense, drinking honey in the morning is not very good, but drinking honey in the morning and then eating tofu, it is estimated that Liu Xuanshuang will become famous tomorrow, Liu Ruyi thought.

After saying a few more words, the little girls bid farewell and went back to practice in their own yard in order to get the reward tomorrow.

A few days ago, the mother and daughter of the Zhang family lived in the guest room in the inner courtyard, and the two boys of the Zhang family lived in the outer courtyard, where the guests lived.

The old lady ordered the Zhang family to live in the Tangli courtyard where the second old man studied in the south of the mansion. It was just cleaned yesterday, and the Zhang family moved there.

The two young girls of the Zhang family went to Funan with their maids.

The girls of the Liu family all went to Fubei.

Therefore, Liu Xuanshuang was a little embarrassed. In the morning, she was very happy to isolate the two concubines with her cousins ​​in the scholarly courtyard. Now that the concubines gathered together, she was alone.

"Sisters, I forgot to mention that my mother told me yesterday that this banquet will be held in the Duke's mansion, and many noble sons and daughters from the capital will be going. Sister, I will go back and make preparations. It's over."

After finishing speaking, I left first.

The rest of Liu Jiaren and Liu Wanwan all looked at Liu Ruyi.

"Second sister, shall we go tomorrow too?" Liu Wanwan was eager to try.

"Of course, if we don't go, how can we show off the eldest sister?" Liu Ruyi mocked slightly.

Seeing that the two little girls were a bit disappointed, Liu Ruyi comforted her a few words and left.

If I'm not in the mansion tomorrow, since Da Furen wants to make a big fuss, let's make a big fuss.

What Liu Ruyi didn't know was that the eldest lady wanted to use this banquet to plot against Liu Ruyi, and Liu Ruyi wanted to use this banquet to plot against Liu Xuanshuang.

That night, Liu Ruyi didn't want to be in the limelight when she was just appointed as the county head, and would cause others to be jealous and framed, so she deliberately chose a light pink dress that was unobtrusive to everyone, and her jewelry was also unusually ordinary.

"Miss, why don't you wear the clothes that you gave me that day? This servant girl thinks it still looks better." Linglong asked curiously.

"What do you know, little girl? Our lady is afraid of showing off and making those villains jealous, so I specially wear a dress that is not outstanding, it's safe." Xiangyi just came in with a pot of hot water. Hearing this, she taught Linglong the way.

"I'm not a little girl anymore, I've grown up." Linglong glared at Xiangyi dissatisfied.
