poisonous woman

Chapter 13
"Miss, why did you lie to help Miss Fifth today? Wouldn't you offend Miss Six?" Returning to the Qingqiu Pavilion, Liu Se couldn't help but ask Rong Wan, "It's not easy for us in this mansion, if we offend That Lord, I'm afraid the days to come will be even more difficult."

Rong Wan shook her head lightly, took the tea she handed over, and said, "I know Rong Zhao can't be offended, but if I don't say that today, I will offend my second aunt." It was hard to swallow a mouthful, but she had long been used to it, and besides Liu Se, none of the maids around her was dedicated.

After putting down the tea, she took out a gold hairpin from her sleeve, and gently touched the bead flower on it with her fingers, "Second Aunt is the aunt of the Lin family. If I want to marry Zhongxuan, I can't offend her. I have no choice."

Liu Se sighed dejectedly, "Miss is about to be eighteen, but Madam has not been willing to propose a marriage to Miss. Now Miss has finally found her home with Young Master Lin. It's not worth the marriage."

Rong Wan raised her head to hold back the tears she was about to shed, "My aunt and I have been bullied in this house, if we can marry Zhongxuan, maybe we can get rid of this fate."

She suddenly raised her head and stared at Liu Se, with burning flames jumping in her eyes, she held her hand tightly, "Liu Se, I am not reconciled, because I am a concubine, so should I be manipulated by others? Marry It is the only turning point that I can change my destiny, and I can only firmly grasp it."

After a pause, he took a slight breath, "Although the Lin family is not a relative of the emperor, they are also a wealthy family. Zhongxuan is the eldest son and direct grandson, and the Lin family will belong to him in the future. If I marry him, why should I still look around like now?" Other people's faces? Although I offended Rong Zhao this time, I sold it to my second aunt, and I don't think she will make things difficult for me in the future."

Liu Se's face revealed a look of disapproval, and said: "But the second madam is not someone who remembers well, I'm afraid she still thinks that you are afraid of her."

She understands Miss's difficulties, but the second lady is usually a bitter and mean master, why would she look up to Miss because of this incident.What she is worried about now is Miss Six's side. Miss Six is ​​like a Buddha in this mansion, who dares to provoke her?Now that Miss offends her, maybe she will be retaliated against in some way.

Liu Se couldn't think of Rong Wan's thoughts, of course she knew what kind of person the second lady was, and she also knew what kind of methods Rong Zhao had.

She closed her eyes lightly, and said, "I can only take a gamble. If I win the bet, I will have hope. If I lose, I will be trampled underfoot by Rong Zhao at worst." Smiling slightly, Rong Wan's voice was low and deep. Slowly, "Anyway, I'm already like this, are you afraid of being stepped on by her even worse?"

The eyes lightly closed under the eyelids are as dark as the deep pool under the ancient well, and the waves are surging under the calm.If she opened her eyes at this moment, she would be able to see the raging desire bursting out of her eyes, as well as the unconcealable ghastly coldness.

The next day, Mrs. Rong called everyone to her Heng Mu Zhai, but it was such a coincidence that Rong Zhao and Rong Wan met in the veranda.Rong Wan smiled timidly at Rong Zhao, "Sixth Sister." Her voice was as gentle as ever.

Because of what happened yesterday, Rong Zhao is still angry, and seeing her, how could he have a good face? He snorted coldly, and said sarcastically, "Sister? Yesterday I thought you and Rong Qing were real sisters."

Rong Wan's complexion changed slightly, her expression was very embarrassing, she kneaded the fur on the cloak with her fingers, her bright eyes were rippling, and she wanted to speak and burst into tears, "Sixth sister, don't be angry with me, yesterday I was really afraid of causing embarrassment. Necessary disputes. You also know that the second aunt is unreasonable. If I am telling the truth, she will definitely say that the two of us have teamed up to bully Rong Qing, and the old lady will definitely make trouble. Yesterday was grandma’s Shouchen, I really don't want to bother her with this matter."

Rong Zhao frowned, and looked at her with a bit of surprise. She was surprised that Rong Wan could speak so well, and said it so beautifully, why didn't she notice it in the last life.

Although surprised, Rong Zhao has always been arrogant. Even though he knew that she would become the princess of Chu in the future, he still didn't take her seriously.In her opinion, let alone Rong Wan being the concubine of Chu, even if she still became a queen like in her previous life, it would be nothing more than a down-and-out sparrow turning into a pheasant, after all, she would never become a phoenix.

"Angry at you? You are a concubine, and you are not qualified to make me angry." Rong Zhao looked away from her contemptuously, brushed her shoulder and walked into Hengmuzhai. After walking a few steps, she stopped, She turned her face sideways and said: "But if you play tricks with me again, you will never have a good life in the mansion."

Looking at Rong Zhao's back, Rong Wan froze in place for a long time, her fists clenched tightly, revealing white joints.

"Miss? Miss?" It was Liu Se who called her a few times to bring her back to her senses, "Let's go in quickly too, don't make the old lady wait any longer."

Rong Wan nodded and followed into Heng Mu Zhai without saying anything.

Not long after, Mrs. Rong's room was full of people.This time, Mrs. Rong called all the people from the first room and the second room, not even the aunt of the second room.

"I don't know why the old lady called us all here today?" Mrs. Lin was wearing a garnet red brocade jacket with a horse bun tied up in a bun, and her hair was full of gold hairpins and emeralds.Seeing that everyone was present, she didn't want to waste any more time, so she asked.

After asking such a question, everyone looked at Mrs. Rong.

Mrs. Rong put down her tea, wiped the corners of her mouth with a silk handkerchief, glanced at Mrs. Gao, and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that Chinese New Year is coming up, and I want to discuss something with you."

Gao raised her brows slightly, her face contained a ray of imperceptible arrogance, "Don't worry, old lady, I have been taking care of the Hou's mansion for so many years, and the New Year's affairs will be the same as in previous years." She muttered in a low voice, Very disdainful, "Is there anything I can discuss with you."

The distance between her and Mrs. Rong was not far, and she could hear clearly. Although she was unhappy, the old lady Rong just pretended not to hear, with a warm and kind smile on her lips, she just said: "You have taken care of the Hou Mansion well. It’s just that this year is different from previous years, the third son’s official position will be transferred back to Beijing, and their family will come back from Yizhou a few years ago, and then there will be an extra room in the mansion.”

"I remember that my third brother will come back before the New Year's Eve." The old lady turned out to be thinking about her son.Gao frowned secretly, but said: "Don't worry, the third brother and the others come back, I will take care of them well, and I won't be wronged."

"That being said." Mrs. Lin vaguely guessed what Mrs. Rong meant, she pursed her lips into a smile, and interjected, "An extra person is nothing more than an extra pair of chopsticks, but an extra room is different, big or small. There will be so many things. Sister-in-law, I'm really afraid that you won't be able to do it all by yourself. "
