Aunt Su comforted Shangguan Ruoli in a rare moment and said: "Miss, don't be too afraid, Zhui Feng and Zhu Yue will stay here. I believe Qiu Ju will handle the funeral affairs of Aunt Sun in time and come back to take care of her as soon as possible."
Shangguan Ruoli smiled calmly: "Okay, thank you, Aunt Su. Nanny Su, feel free to go."
Aunt Su's face darkened. Why did these words sound so unlucky?
According to etiquette, Nanny Su went to say goodbye to Xiao Yunqing, the head mistress of the Zhenguo General's Mansion.
Xiao Yunqing lost the slightest respect before and said coldly: "You are killing people and setting fires in my house. Since you are the nanny of King Xuan, I will not argue with you, but you have to keep your mouths shut."
, if there are any bad rumors, I will never be lenient!"
Aunt Su said lukewarmly: "Madam, please be careful, you and I know the truth, so don't put on a show in front of this old slave."
Chen Yu pouted and said, "Just now when I came to deliver the fake dowry list to Madam, I heard several servants talking about it on the road. Now everyone outside knows about the Second Miss."
Aunt Su frowned and said, "Really? We haven't left the house yet, so it has nothing to do with us! Almost the entire Zhenguo General's Mansion was present that day!"
"What?!" Xiao Yunqing's originally pale face suddenly turned ashen.
Aunt Su said coldly: "I don't know the specific situation. I advise you, madam, to come up with a suitable countermeasure quickly. Maybe the nun who will perform the physical examination in the palace will arrive soon."
When Xiao Yunqing heard this, she slumped into her chair.
When Shangguan Ruoli's accident happened, the emperor sent a medical examiner to examine her. What's more, the princess also had to undergo a physical examination before her wedding. She had to pass this test no matter what.
Aunt Su sneered and walked away with Chen Yu.
After leaving the mansion, there was already a decent little carriage parked there, protected by two groups of tall guards.
Even so, there were a few sneaky people following the carriage.
Chen Yu looked out from the gap in the carriage curtain and said with a smile: "Fortunately, Your Majesty had the foresight to send guards to pick us up. Otherwise, our lives would have been in danger once we left the General's Mansion."
Aunt Su showed a happy and proud smile. The master she raised with her own hands and the master she protected with her life was naturally the most attentive to her.
…
After the three masters and servants of Aunt Su left, Shangguan Ruoli felt a lot more free. She first did 200 push-ups and 200 sit-ups.
I was doing squats when I heard footsteps in the yard.
Looking through the half-open window, I saw Xue'e leading a dozen servants into Meixiang Garden, and arranged their positions in a few words.
Shangguan Ruoli took out the plum blossom order from his purse, applied some rouge, and then printed the pattern on the palm of his hand.
Xue'e entered the house with three maids. When she saw Shangguan Ruoli sitting alone on the chair, a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of her lips and said: "Miss, Madam has arranged all the servants for Mei Xiangyuan. This servant is
Your eldest maid."
The eldest maid is the head of the servants in the entire courtyard, and is in charge of everything in Meixiang Garden, including the food and personal belongings of the master Shangguan Ruoli.
Shangguan Ruoli sneered in his heart and said calmly: "Okay."
This Xiao Yunqing is really a cockroach that cannot be killed.
Xue'e sneered and said: "The eldest lady doesn't have to wait for Qiu Ju. Bilian, who went to restrain Grandma Sun with her, came back and said that the coffin bearer slipped on the mountain road. Qiu Ju was crushed to death by the coffin because she was too weak to dodge.
He was buried together with Grandma Sun, which fulfilled her goddaughter's filial piety."
Shangguan Ruoli's face is as pale as water, but the volcano in his heart has erupted. This woman regards human life as nothing, and is simply worse than an animal!
"I want to go out." Shangguan Ruoli stood up, she wanted to try to rescue Bai Qingyan.
Xue'e said contemptuously: "Young lady can't see you, so what are you doing out there? It's better to stay in the house."
Shangguan Ruoli said coldly: "Am I the master or are you the master? Why don't you prepare the sedan quickly!"
Xue'e didn't hide the cruelty in her eyes and smiled coldly, "Yes!"
Then he glanced at the maid behind him, and the two maids immediately turned around and ran away.
Shangguan Ruoli knew that one of them must have sent a message to Xiao Yunqing, and Xiao Yunqing probably wanted to kill her before Shangguan Tianxiao came back.
After getting on the sedan and leaving the Zhenguo General's Mansion, Shangguan Ruoli said coldly: "Go to Dingguo Duke's Mansion, no, first go to Zhiweizhai to buy some pastries."
"Yes!" The bearer lifted the sedan steadily.
"Nine on this side, nine on that side, long and long! Nine on that side, nine on this side, long and long..." The sound of smoke and green came from outside the sedan.
There is also a group of beggars following Yancui and running along with the sedan, singing: "Miss, madam, you are all rich people! Give two coins to us poor people..."
Xue'e frowned and glanced at the remote alley, but with these beggars following her, she didn't let the bearer turn into the alley.
Seeing those beggars following them all the time, seemingly unwilling to give up even if they didn't give me money, I painfully grabbed a few coins from my purse and threw them at the unkempt beggars, "Go away! Go away!"
The beggars robbed the copper coins, and soon the beggars who had not grabbed the copper coins caught up with them again, "This girl is so beautiful, this girl is very kind, I will reward you with a copper plate and a bowl of rice, you will be rich, wealthy and beautiful..."
Xue'e touched her purse and saw that there were no copper coins in it. She was reluctant to give the broken silver to these beggars.
He asked the other three maids who were following him, "Do you have any copper coins?"
"No!" the three maids said in unison. Their monthly income was very small, and they had no money to give to beggars.
Xue'e snorted coldly and lowered her voice: "Take it out if you have it. These beggars must be thrown away."
The three maids remained silent, obviously not wanting to bleed.
Xue'e had no choice but to scold the beggars: "Get away, I don't have any money to give you. If you continue to pester me, be careful and I'll have someone deal with you!"
The beggars stayed away, but still followed.
Ahead is Zhiweizhai, with the smell of freshly baked pastries floating in the air.
Shangguan Ruoli helped Xue'e get off the sedan, walked to the front of the counter, and said calmly: "Give the beggars behind each other two pieces of plum blossom cake, and give me two boxes."
The waiter, a shrewd and energetic boy of thirteen or fourteen, responded with a busy smile: "Hey! That's great!"
When the beggars following behind heard this, they swarmed up and surrounded the counter, "Thank you, miss! Thank you!"
Xue'e was so disgusted by the dirty beggars that she covered her mouth and nose and hid again and again in disgust.
Yan Cui took this opportunity to squeeze in front of Shangguan Ruoli, took the plum blossom cake from the waiter's hand, and whispered quickly in Shangguan Ruoli's ear: "Qiu Ju was rescued by a slave."
Shangguan Ruoli narrowed his eyes slightly to show that he heard.
The shopkeeper was an old man with a white beard. His eyes swept over Yan Cui's dirty little face, and he looked at Shangguan Ruoli thoughtfully. This young lady looked familiar.
