Chapter 46 Plum lanterns
"Sister Tong'er, look at the lanterns in front of you, they are so beautiful!" Zhaodi pointed to the various lanterns in front of her with bright eyes.
There are cute and cute rabbit lanterns, exquisite and beautiful octagonal palace lanterns, and small and exquisite plum blossom lanterns...
The most dazzling thing is the lantern festival on the banks of the Gunshui River. The huge lotus lanterns are like sky lanterns blooming in the middle of the Gunshui River. The pink petals rotate slowly, and the lights are overflowing and beautiful.
Zhaodi pointed at the plum blossom lantern and said to the stall owner: "Uncle, help me take down that plum blossom lantern."
"Oh, good little girl!" The stall owner exclaimed that the little girl's eyes are so bright. This plum blossom lantern is the most popular lantern this year, and there is only the last lantern left.
Just as the stall owner selling lanterns took off the plum blossom lantern and handed it to Zhao Di, a hand stretched out from behind took it.
"Eh?"
Wang Tong'er smelled a strong smell of powder in her nose, and she and Zhao Di turned around and looked back at the same time. They saw a beautiful woman holding the plum blossom lantern in her hand, and she didn't forget to glare at Wang Tong'er: "Look,
What are you looking at? My young lady saw this lantern first. Huh!"
Tsk! Why are you so arrogant? It turns out that she is also a maid just like herself.
Um? No, why does this servant look so inexplicably familiar?
Wang Tong'er saw her holding the lantern in her hand and came to a young lady who was gorgeously dressed, with a dazzling beaded shorts on her hair and a face scarf.
"I saw this lantern first." Zhao Di muttered in a low voice, holding her mouth shut.
Unexpectedly, the complaining voices of Zhao Di and Wang Tong'er were heard sharply by another maid next to the young lady. She pointed at Zhao Di arrogantly and said, "Humph! Don't even look at how poor you are! Why?
Dare you compete with my young lady for lanterns?"
"Forget it, let's look at the other lanterns!" Wang Tong'er was holding Zhao Di's hand and leaving. Hearing this, he looked at their master and servant. The young lady was reflected in the woven lanterns on the street. Wang Tong'er saw her whole body.
Although her small face was covered by a thin scarf, the pair of exposed eyes were what Wang Tong'er remembered deeply.
Gee, I'm so lucky. With so many people on the street, I actually met the future mistress of Qingsongyuan, Miss Shen Er, Shen Mengxi.
No wonder the maid who snatched the lantern from Zhao Di looked familiar just now!
It turned out to be an acquaintance.
In the past few days, Wang Tong'er followed Xie Yuheng to Hui Juyuan. From the mouths of their mother and son, they generally knew that Shen Yushi's family had three legitimate daughters and one concubine.
The eldest daughter married the second son of Duke Cheng Guo, and the third daughter and the concubine were all still teenagers.
The second Miss Shen in front of me, Shen Mengxi, will marry best in the future. Marrying the young and promising Prince Xie is a high-ranking marriage.
Wang Tong'er was wrapped in a scarf, so Miss Shen Er probably didn't recognize that it was her. Otherwise, given her gentle and virtuous nature, she would certainly not have arrogantly ordered her maid to snatch the lanterns, which would harm her gentle face.
"Pomegranate, why don't you go and give me the money?" Miss Shen Er ordered in a cold voice.
"Yes, miss, my servant will go right away."
It turned out that the maid Wang Tong'er was familiar with was named Pomegranate. It was she who had snatched the lantern from Zhao Di just now. After hearing this, she took out a handful of small coins from her purse and threw it to the stall owner selling lanterns.
"Why don't you throw away this lantern? The lower class likes it, but you used it to stain my eyes!" There were words in Shen Mengxi's tone that could send chills down the spine.
"Oh, maid, please spare it."
When Wang Tong'er saw another maid, she quickly threw the plum blossom lantern to the ground with a loud "pop!" and she did not forget to step on it a few times with her feet.
The plum blossom lantern that had just been delicate and compact suddenly fell into pieces.
When Wang Tong'er saw the future princess's actions, Mo Ming's little heart trembled.
Not only did she hear condescending and contemptuous words in Miss Shen's voice, but she also heard a violent bad temper.
From the flower appreciation banquet held by the Marquis Mansion that day, Wang Tong'er realized that Miss Shen, the future Crown Princess, was not easy to meet.
Thanks to the Crown Prince, what else can I say: The Crown Princess is a gentle and virtuous mistress!
This shows that Miss Shen Er usually hides well, but today she thought it was because she met two girls going to the countryside that she revealed her true colors.
Wang Tong'er took Zhao Di's hand back, and her heart suddenly pounded.
She was worried that Miss Yi Shen, with her coquettish temper, would find trouble with her everywhere after marrying the prince.
No wonder Wang Tong'er thinks this way, the reason is of course that Qingsongyuan has no other maids besides himself and Xiao Zhaodi?
Furthermore, Wang Tong'er is not bragging, her appearance is too gorgeous...
Alas! After a few months, my body has grown, and no matter how thick my bangs are, I can't hide my good color.
I wonder if this appearance, which should not happen to my servant, is a blessing or a curse?
By the way, don't say that the master is looking for trouble for no reason, just beating and scolding himself, even if he is sold out, the slave has nothing to complain about, right?
Alas!
After finally spending a few days at Qingsongyuan, the carefree days seem to be coming to an end soon!
Alas!
After the prince gets married, he will probably have to live in the dark and miserable days of being rubbed down by his mistress...
no!
I have to find the prince, can he help me change my job?
Even if she goes to work as a rough girl somewhere else, that's fine.
Who was Wang Tong'er afraid of in the past?
Ever since I was little, I have always disliked bullying the weak, and I love to fight against injustice!
Back then, with the backing of a powerful family, who would dare to bully her?
Mainly because it is a society ruled by law where everyone is equal...
Wang Tong'er pretended to be thoughtful and did not bother to help Zhao Di buy lanterns anymore, so she hurriedly took Zhao Di back to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Wang Tong'er and Zhao Di arrived at Qingsong Courtyard, they were stopped by Huang Yu: "Miss Tong'er, the prince is looking for you."
"Ah? Manager Huang, do you know what the prince wants to see me for now?" Wang Tong'er was worried that she would go out to play privately, for fear of being blamed by her master, and wanted to get some information from Huang Yu.
"have no idea."
"oh."
"Zhao Di, please go back to your room first. I'll go back as soon as I go." Wang Tong'er waved her hand to Zhao Di, holding on to the prince's plan to punish the family and himself.
"Oh, then Sister Tong'er, I will go back to the room to help you deliver the hot water." Zhao Di, who was ignorant and ignorant, said to Wang Tong'er warmly.
Wang Tong'er nodded to her and said, "Yes."
She secretly begged: Prince, just punish him! She was also trying to find him and beg him to arrange for her to work somewhere else.
When she quickly walked to the door of Xie Yuheng's outer hall, she saw Xie Yuheng, who was wearing a crescent white embroidered bamboo brocade robe, reflected in the lanterns hanging under the eaves of the corridor. She looked handsome, handsome and extraordinary.
But his appearance was upright and stern, with an awe-inspiring nobility, but his dark eyes were filled with a coldness.
Wang Tong'er was so frightened that she ran over and knelt down with a plop: "My servant is wrong, please punish me!"
