idle mistress

Chapter 76
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

Gao Xiangning recognized the footsteps, and couldn't help yelling something bad: "No, my brother is here."

Who would have thought that when she mentioned her brother, the people in front of her looked even more flustered than she did.

Thinking of the little uncle who fell in love with his mother-in-law and complained, Xu Weiqiu had a headache. She was about to ask Miss Gao to see where she could hide.Before he could open his mouth, the study door was pushed open.

And Gao Xiangning only had time to hide the newly acquired paper kite behind her like stealing a bell.

Gao Jijing came to find out after receiving a report from his servants that someone had sneaked into his study.

He had already guessed that it might be his untaught sister.But when he opened the door and saw that besides his younger sister Xiang Ning, there was an unexpected woman in his study, he couldn't help being stunned.

Surprised but surprised, but the etiquette and upbringing deeply rooted in his heart made him calm down quickly. He coughed lightly, and bowed to Xu Weiqiu:
"Sister-in-law!"

Hearing his address, Gao Xiangning's almond eyes widened, and she turned to look at Xu Weiqiu in disbelief.

Xu Weiqiu twitched the corners of his mouth at her, showing a smile uglier than crying.

The next moment, Gao Jijing reprimanded his sister with a sullen face: "Gao Xiangning, what are you doing here? Don't you know that it is quite rude to break into someone's study without the master's permission? Miss, don't you even understand this basic etiquette?"

After being yelled at by her brother, Gao Xiangning froze there and didn't even dare to move.

This person turned his face faster than turning a book, Xu Weiqiu couldn't tell, he was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai.

She smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I'm leaving now, sorry to bother you..." She was walking out while saying this, and after she finished speaking, she had passed the siblings and left the study.

Gao Xiangning opened her mouth at her to persuade her to stay, but when she saw her brother's warning eyes turned sideways, she didn't dare to say anything, so she had to watch her leave reluctantly.

After the person left, Gao Jijing scolded his sister severely again, but Gao Xiangning didn't dare to refute and had to be scolded obediently.

It wasn't until Gao Jijing's anger almost disappeared that Gao Xiangning dared to ask: "Brother, is that sister just now really the wife of Brother Yan?"

Gao Jijing replied with a stern face: "That's right, what's the matter? You didn't even know her identity, so you played with others? This woman is shallow and ignorant, and her morals are lacking. You should avoid her in the future."

No, they are amazing, where is the shallowness?Where is the ignorance?

Gao Xiangning really wanted to refute, but was suppressed by his brother's stern gaze, so she didn't dare to say anything, so she nodded obediently.

It is said that Xu Weiqiu escaped from the territory of the two Gao brothers and sisters with his tail between his legs, and returned to his own field. Unexpectedly, the east courtyard was deserted and there was no one in sight, and the house was even darker and darker.

Only then did she remember that Haitang asked her for leave yesterday, and she nodded in agreement.

No, Haitang is not the only maidservant in the East courtyard.

Although this Haitang loves to think about things, she still takes care of her very carefully, almost to the point of meticulous care, and always calculates the time when she will come back.

So every time she came back to the house, hot meals were served.

She came back late today, and she didn't expect to be able to eat hot meals like usual, but when she returned to the house, she didn't even have cold meals or cold dishes.

After a busy day, she was already hungry.

"Yuling...Jin Nuo...Chang'an..." She yelled all the way and searched for the backyard, all the way to the back room...

Chang An and Jin Nuo were sitting on the wooden couch and laughing, when they heard her calling, they couldn't help but rolled their eyes.

The few of them were very happy to be assigned to the East Court at the beginning, although I also heard that the wife of the eldest son came from a bad background.

But the few of them wanted to take care of the daily life of Mrs. Shizi, and they could be regarded as first-class maids in this Prince Cheng's mansion, thinking in their hearts that it was better than taking care of those aunts who had no status.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the wife of the eldest son entered the door, the eldest son was unhappy. Except for the wedding night, the two had been married for more than half a year, and the eldest son had never entered the east courtyard for a while.

At first, the other aunts of the palace occasionally came to greet Ann, but later the Shizi didn't want to see the East courtyard at all, so no one came here again.

The front of the east courtyard is neglected, and the wife of the son is still invisible all day long, so that fool Haitang is still taking care of the neglected master in every possible way.

People in other courts, as long as the servants serve well, they can also get rewards from the master.For the few of them, they didn't see Mrs. Shizi all day long, so they didn't get any benefit.

Yuling saw that the wife of the eldest son was not welcome, she had already found a way out, and after a good sister introduced her, she secretly went to another courtyard to serve her.

"Yuling... Yuling... Chang'an..."

Seeing the bright light in Houtan's room, Xu Weiqiu was sure that there was someone inside, so he couldn't help calling out a few more times.

"Hmm..." There was finally a response from inside.

After a while, the door was opened, Chang An and Jin Nuo walked out, and saluted him.

This ceremony was extremely perfunctory, Xu Weiqiu is someone who doesn't pay much attention to these details, so she didn't notice it, she looked inside and asked, "Did you go to bed so early?"

The two maids nodded.

She asked again, "Where's Yuling?"

Jin Nuo replied, "She was called away by Aunt Yang."

"Oh!" Xu Weiqiu didn't care much about the whereabouts of a maid, she looked at the two and asked, "Is there anything to eat?"

The two maids looked at each other, and after a long while, Jin Nuofang said falteringly: "Madam's meals are prepared by Sister Haitang in the past, and she didn't give special instructions before she left the mansion, the maid thought that Madam had already eaten outside. "

Xu Weiqiu shook his head: "I haven't eaten yet, you two go to the kitchen to see if there are any ingredients, and bring me something to eat."

She felt that this was the job of a maid, so she went back to the house after giving orders.Unexpectedly, the two maids complained a lot about this, and naturally they started to procrastinate.

Xu Weiqiu waited in the bedroom and waited for nothing to eat. She was very hungry, so she went to the kitchen to see what was going on, but saw two girls chatting while choosing dishes, the stove was still cold .

"Have you started cooking yet?" she said as she walked in.

She and Jin Nuo in Chang'an saw her coming to urge them, so they speeded up.

Xu Weiqiu stood aside and watched the two of them take care of a vegetable. They didn't want the top of the vegetable, nor did they want the bigger leaves on the outside, leaving only a few young leaves inside.

She also came in an era of material abundance, and she didn't care about wasting food before, and often asked the nurse to help order takeaway when it was time for meals.
