As happy as Mr. Xu and Su Hongshan were, Mrs. Yun San was angry, and Mr. Yun San was half happy and half regretful.
After Xie Boting saluted Xu, he and Su Tang accompanied Xu to Songhe Hall to pay their respects to the old lady. They brought some cordyceps to nurse the old lady back to health. After sitting there for a quarter of an hour, no one mentioned that Su Hongshan and the third master were fighting against the right minister of the punishment department.
Although the position was unpleasant, Mrs. Xu did not blame the Jingnan Palace for wronging Su Tang. It was very harmonious.
After coming out of Songhe Hall, Mrs. Xu went to see the princess again. The two talked for a long time and sent Su Tang and Xie Boting away.
The two of them went to the garden to enjoy the flowers while waiting for the princess to send Xu out. As a result, they had to wait for two-quarters of an hour.
Su Tang was puzzled, did her mother and the princess have so much to talk about?
After waiting and waiting, she saw the princess escorting Mrs. Xu out. Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "The princess will stay here, as long as I have Tang'er with me."
The princess knew that mother and daughter still had something to say, so she didn't send it away. She happened to have a few words to give to Xie Boting, so she called Xie Boting away.
The garden scenery was nice, so Mrs. Xu did not go to Jingmoxuan, but went to the pavilion over there with Su Tang to talk.
Stepping into the pavilion, Su Tang held Xu's arm and asked coquettishly, "What did mother and the princess talk about for so long?"
Mrs. Xu scolded Su Tang, "Are you so impatient for waiting a little longer?"
Su Tang said, "My daughter is just curious about why my mother suddenly came to the palace."
Intuition told her that it was not because Xie Boting had recovered from his illness that she came to confirm, there must be something else.
Mrs. Xu sat down, glanced from the corner of her eye behind the rockery beside the pavilion, and said with a smile, "My bridesmaid is here to enjoy the breeze and drink some tea."
Banxia hurriedly went to bring tea.
Su Tang became more and more curious, did her mother deliberately push away Pinellia? But Pinellia was her personal maid, and she was loyal to her, so she didn't have to hide anything from Pinellia.
No wonder Su Tang thought so, because Xu had just come out of the princess's place, so she didn't feel thirsty so quickly, but she asked Pinellia ternata to serve tea. It looked like she was deliberately trying to distract Pinellia ternata.
However, after Banxia left, Mrs. Xu still said nothing until Banxia brought the tea.
Mrs. Xu picked up the tea cup and handed it directly to Su Tang. A big question mark appeared on Su Tang's forehead. Mrs. Xu glanced at the rockery and told Su Tang with her eyes that someone was eavesdropping behind the rockery.
Su Tang understood instantly, grabbed the tea cup and threw it directly towards the rockery.
Along with the sound of the tea cup breaking, the maid's frightened voice could be heard.
A maid in a light green dress was hiding behind the rockery. She was startled and ran away.
Banxia was stunned, and when she turned around she quickly said, "I'll chase him."
Banxia turned around and was about to go down the steps, but Su Tang stopped her and said, "No need to chase."
If she wants to catch the maid, her mother doesn't need to let her smash the tea cup. The tea cup was meant to scare the maid, and it was smashed for everyone to see. To be precise, it was smashed for the prince. The servants in the prince's palace are already very courageous.
Even the eldest young lady dared to eavesdrop when she was talking to her own mother.
Asking the prince to train Princess Nankang would be much more effective than Su Tang directly grabbing a maid.
Mrs. Xu only showed such a skill, and Su Tang knew that her mother was a master of house fighting, and there was no need to worry about her being bullied by Mrs. Yun San in Prince Xin's Mansion. This chapter has been completed!
