Chapter 03 Irony Strike
"Mrs. Second Lady asked you to give it?" Duan Yunyun looked at the slightly cool chicken soup on the table and showed mockery. Mingyue nodded slightly. "Back to the eldest lady, the second lady said that the medicinal materials in this chicken soup were all given by the imperial palace and were extremely precious. Thinking that the eldest lady probably didn't have many chances to drink it, she asked me to come and give you a bowl. She was the second lady who was not polite..."
"Haha...she will say!" Duan Yunyun smiled after hearing Mingyue's words. "I'm afraid that only she, who has never seen the world, will think that others are the same as hers, right?"
"Miss, this second lady is getting more and more excessive! Isn't she obviously mocking you?" Lingyin was a little angry. "What's so great? Isn't it just that her daughter has entered the palace to be a concubine? But the imperial edict has not been issued yet, so what's so proud of? I don't know what kind of thing will be released in her belly!"
"Hey..." Duan Yunyun smiled and looked at Lingyin. "Second Madam is kind, why are you mocking me? But I can't look directly at me. You go to the warehouse to take the red coral that the Queen Mother gave me earlier to Mingyue..."
"Red Coral?" Ling Yin widened her eyes, then looked at Duan Yunyun with disagreement. "How can I use such a precious thing for her?"
"If you want to go, go..." Duan Yunyun glared at her, and Lingyin then reluctantly went to the warehouse. After Lingyin left, Duan Yunyun asked Mingyue about some of the second wife's situation, and Mingyue said everything in detail.
"So, the second lady is now a male fetus in her belly?" Duan Yunyun picked up the handkerchief and wiped the long-lived locks made of gold and jade on the table, as well as the anklets and bracelets worn by the baby.
"Yes……"
"Haha..." Duan Yunyun just smiled after hearing this. After a while, Lingyin brought Hong Coral in. "Take this back to the second wife, and said that I really have no object to take action here to return the gift. So I just chose one from the warehouse, hoping that the second wife should not be surprised..."
"Yes..." Mingyue held back her smile and responded. Lingyin covered her mouth and laughed after hearing Duan Yunyun's words. Now the second lady is so angry that she will smoke on her head, right?
As expected, when Mingyue brought Hong Coral back and repeated Duan Yunyun's words, the second wife, who was originally laughing and waiting for good news, could not laugh out loud.
There was no gift that could be taken out? The second wife almost bit her teeth. The red coral, which was almost half a person tall, in front of her was priceless. She actually said she took one from the warehouse. Wouldn't that tell her that any item in the warehouse was priceless?
This was undoubtedly a few slaps to her. The medicinal materials given by the imperial palace were nothing. They were not even as good as piles of weeds in others.
But before the second wife could calm down, there was another movement outside the door. Mingyue sent him to see it, but soon he saw Mingyue holding a box in his hand. "What is this?"
The second wife frowned slightly...
"Back to Madam, this was sent by the eldest lady. Although these medicinal materials are not as expensive as those given by the imperial palace, they are also good for nourishing the body. So I sent someone to send them..." Mingyue put the box on the table as she said.
The second lady didn't believe that the girl was so kind. After Mingyue put the box on the table, she opened it one by one and looked at it. Her face turned black. She only recognized the hundred-year-old red ginseng, but she had never eaten it. She had just paid for some beards to eat before, but she gave her a whole piece. And it seemed that this was ginseng that had been around for hundreds of years...
Let’s look at the box below, where several complete blood bird’s nests are lying side by side. They are flawless and look at the best. Let’s look at the box next to it. The petals are crystal clear and exudes a faint fragrance when opened. The items in these boxes are worth a thousand gold and are very expensive.
"It really made her work hard! She spent so much money to ridicule my wife..." The second wife covered the boxes heavily and said with a ferocious face.
Mingyue stood aside without responding, but she was almost awesome about Duan Yunyun's approach. Perhaps the slap was absolutely loud. Perhaps the second wife felt that the medicinal materials given to her were taken out of the palace, so they were naturally good. But she forgot that the eldest lady had been rich in clothes and food since she was a child, and there was nothing she had ever seen and used? Even at the empress dowager, she had been favored for so many years and received countless treasures. How could the second lady and the second wife compare to the eldest lady? This was undoubtedly just a stone shooting herself in the foot.
Before the second wife could get angry, Cuiyu walked in from outside and said something that made the second wife go crazy. "What? All things in this mansion are handled by that girl? Does this lady have to ask her for permission to ask her for permission?" The second wife was angry and grabbed the cup beside her hand and threw it hard on the ground. "It's such a bully. My wife is the second wife. If the eldest wife is not here, I can't be my own master? She is an unmarried girl from Yunying. What qualifications are there to be in charge of affairs in the mansion? Aren't these things all right to me?"
"These were all told by the eldest lady when she left, and the prime minister also accused him. Now the eldest lady is in charge of everything in the mansion. I go to find the housekeeper. The housekeeper asked me to find the eldest lady, saying that this matter could only be arranged by the eldest lady..." Cuiyu quietly took a step back and narrowly avoided the fragments.
When the second wife heard this, her chest was fluctuating violently. After a while, she closed her eyes and tried hard to adjust her breathing, and then opened her eyes to look at Mingyue and Cuiyu. "Changing clothes, my wife went to see the eldest lady in person..."
"Yes..." After the two of them responded, they helped the second wife sit in front of the dressing mirror and re-dressed. Until the second wife felt that she was comparable to Duan Yunyun, they took their two maids to Duan Yunyun's courtyard with satisfaction.
The news that the second wife was about to come to Duan Yunyun's courtyard had been quietly heard by an informant. So Duan Yunyun was ready in the morning. When the sound of the maid in the courtyard greeting the second wife came from outside, Duan Yunyun narrowed his eyes slightly.
I wonder what happened to the second wife came to find her. Could it be that she was so angry that she came to quarrel with her because of the gift she gave just now? Duan Yunyun sneered. She was not afraid of this second wife. Compared to her before, she was an aunt, now she is not worthy of her own guard. Since becoming a flat wife, the second wife has never been deeply and plotted again. She exposed her ambitions step by step.
"Is the eldest lady inside?" The second wife's voice came from outside the door, and Duan Yunyun narrowed her eyes slightly. Lingyin glanced at Duan Yunyun. "Miss Second, the second wife's airs are becoming more and more decent! Those who don't know think they are the wife..."
