Chapter 167 Weird
Xiao Jinyue glanced at the tray in the servant girl's hand, and then at Mrs. Tai.

I don't know what the Second Madam said to her, Madam Tai laughed as she listened, even the wrinkles at the end of her eyes were full of kindness, she looked no different from the other rich and gentle Madam Tai in the mansion .

"Crack, clatter..."

In the warm and peaceful Songhe Hall, there was a sudden sound of pots and bowls hitting the ground.

Everyone was startled, followed the sound, and saw the maid who was walking over with Anshen tea, with a pale face, looking helplessly at the torn teacup on the floor.

"What's going on?" Seeing that Anshen Tea was smashed to the ground, Mrs. Tai turned her head and stared at the maid sternly.

The servant girl was startled by the stern voice, and knelt down with a thump, "Slave... the servant girl suddenly trembled, smashed, smashed the Anshen Tea, begging Madam Tai for forgiveness..."

Xiao Jinyue didn't expect to find such an accident, and suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a fiery red figure on the beam, and while everyone was looking at the maid, Xiao Jinyue quietly raised her head to look.

Chi Yan was hiding on the beam above, and when she saw her looking over, he bared his teeth at her, pointed to the broken teacup, then shook his head and waved his hands at her.

Xiao Jinyue was surprised, didn't Chi Yan have been playing with Xiaobai on the lake island in the backyard of Shi'an Garden, when did he come to Songhe Hall, secretly hid on the beam of the house, and took the opportunity to smash the Anshen tea brought by the maid with a small stone.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, Xiao Jinyue hurriedly signaled it to leave quickly.

Nanny Gong didn't expect it to be so good, how could the maid smash the tea bowl.Seeing Mrs. Tai's displeasure, she quickly frowned and reprimanded, "You are so clumsy, you can't even hold a tray. Hurry up and bring another bowl."

Xiao Jinyue didn't look at the maid, but quickly glanced at Mrs. Tai, and saw her staring at the maid sternly.

There was a strange feeling in her heart, the maid just accidentally smashed a bowl of calming tea, and the kind Mrs. Tai had a stern expression on her face, and even had a gloomy feeling.

Xiao Jinyue rolled her eyes, took the opportunity to smile and said, "Forget it, it's just a bowl of Anshen tea, if you smash it, you will smash it. Mrs. Tai, Shi'an Garden also has Anshen tea, and it's the same for granddaughter-in-law to drink it when she goes back.

It's getting late, you must be tired after driving such a long way today, my grandson-in-law won't be here to disturb your tranquility, and I'll come back tomorrow morning to say hello to you. "

She wanted to go back, but Mrs. Tai disagreed, and said with a smile on her face, "Don't worry, Madam Gong has cooked a lot of Anshen tea, and there are still quite a few. Ask the maid to bring another bowl. You can drink it while it is hot, so as not to go back It’s still going to be a toss when we get to Shi’an Court.”

At this time, Mrs. Tai was smiling, and even the wrinkles on her face were full of kindness, but for some reason, Xiao Jinyue felt that such Mrs. Tai was a little weird that couldn't be explained.

Xiao Jinyue frowned, Mrs. Tai is like this, if she insists on drinking this bowl of calming tea, she can't even push it away.

But after a while, the maid came in hurriedly carrying a bowl of calming tea on a tray.

Seeing everyone staring at her, Xu Shi suddenly felt nervous, worried that she would smash the medicine bowl again, she couldn't help swallowing quietly, held the tray in her hand tighter, and even her hurried steps were slow. down.

Xiao Jinyue stared at the maid and slowly walked towards her step by step. As she got closer, the familiar smell of medicine wafted to her nose again.

With a sinking heart, she looked out of the corner of her eye at Mrs. Tai, who was talking to Chang'an county magistrate, but she saw that she had a gentle expression, her words were neither slow nor hasty, and she didn't even have a strange movement of serving tea.

Xiao Jinyue withdrew her gaze, facing the maid who was a few steps away from her, her red lips moved slightly, "torn apart", Yan Ling rushed towards the medicine bowl on the tray with a secret divine light.

"Snapped……"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Anshen tea on the tray burst suddenly, and everyone couldn't help being shocked again.

The servant girl opened her eyes even more, staring at the torn tea bowls on the tray in a daze, she didn't even notice that the clothes in front of her were splashed with tea.

When she realized that the Anshen Tea had been smashed again, the servant girl's face turned pale with fright, and she even suspected that she had seen a ghost in broad daylight.Although this bowl of tea was fried suddenly, she actually noticed something was wrong the first time.

She didn't smash the teacup because of a sudden shaking of her hand, but because something hit her wrist suddenly. The pain and sudden fright made her not hold the tray firmly.

But at that time, there was no one around her, whether it was the second or third wife and girls, they were still some distance away from her, and she didn't see anyone throwing things at her.

The medicine bowl was smashed, and she wanted to say that someone hit her with something, but she had neither evidence nor witnesses.In desperation, he could only take the fault on himself.

Mrs. Tai's face darkened, and she wanted to scold the maid who brought the medicine, but the medicine bowl burst suddenly under the eyes of everyone, so it's no wonder she didn't take the medicine well.

On the other hand, Nanny Gong scolded the maid, "You girl, how do you do things, no matter how anxious you are, you can't use a cracked bowl to fill medicine.

You are so stupid, why are you still standing here in a daze, why don't you hurry up and get out, and go to Dong Mama to learn the rules again, if you don't learn well, you will not be allowed to come back to work in the future. "

Nanny Gong snatched the tray from her hand while cursing, the maid didn't dare to say a word, she just backed away with a pale face and red eyes.

Seeing Mrs. Tai's uneasy expression, Nanny Gong put on a smiling face, turned her head to Xiao Jinyue and said, "Concubine Shizi, wait a moment, this old servant will bring another bowl of calming tea right away. It will be soon, just wait a little longer."

Xiao Jinyue glanced at Nanny Gong indifferently, but did not answer her words.She wanted to see how many bowls of calming tea they had prepared for her.

The second and third wives glanced at each other quietly, without saying anything, chatting as if nothing had happened while sipping tea.

Chang'an County Lord didn't seem to have seen the scene just now, and turned his head to ask Mrs. Tai's itinerary all the way again in a soft voice.

The girls looked at each other for a while, although they felt that the two medicine bowls were broken suddenly, Mrs. Tai didn't say anything, and they only dared to mutter secretly in their hearts, not daring to say a word.

Xiao Jinyue sneered inwardly in the face of the crowd who looked on with different expressions.She is not in a hurry to leave now, she wants to see how it will end in the end.

In just a few words, Nanny Gong walked in with a bowl of calming tea on a tray.

Although everyone seemed to be talking to the people around them as if nothing had happened, they were secretly watching Nanny Gong's every move from the corner of their eyes.

After all, Nanny Gong has been serving Mrs. Tai for most of her life, so she is naturally not afraid of the eyes of everyone.Holding the tray in both hands, he walked steadily. From this look, he knew that the rules and etiquette had been studied hard and earnestly.

Seeing Nanny Gong holding the medicine bowl in person, Mrs. Tai's gloomy expression eased unconsciously.

Xiao Jinyue glanced across Mrs. Tai's face from the corner of her eye, her lips curled up, and she returned to normal in a blink of an eye.

"... Pat!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Nanny Gong fell heavily in front of Xiao Jinyue without warning.
