first princess

Chapter 54
"Oh, you...you...why are you crying?" It's her who should be crying, okay?She was the one who got hit by the board and couldn't get off the ground in pain, okay?Thinking this way in her heart, Liu Lu stretched out her hand and tugged at Zhifan standing by the bed, she pulled, Zhifan opened her hand, she pulled again, Zhifan hit again, repeated this several times, Liu Lu also Instead of being angry, her tone softened, "Aren't you living a good life now? The eldest lady asked me who would be better to take to the palace. I said you all had to go. The eldest lady didn't object. You went to the palace. That is a companion house, a bit more noble than having a family, so why worry about being sent out of the house?"

Zhi Fan really benefited after hearing this, sat down on the side of the bed, stopped crying, and seemed to believe it or not: "Are you serious?"

"I lied to you, can you give me a tael of silver?" Liu Lu pretended to be angry.

"Pfft--" Zhi Fan broke into tears and laughed, but Liu Lu's eyes darkened, "I'm not afraid of your jokes, my father likes to gamble, and all the valuable things in the house have been lost. The only meaning of the existence of the family is to be close to the master and find a way out for my younger brother. My mother originally planned to let me marry the eldest lady and wait for the opportunity to be the housemaid for the uncle, but I have never met the uncle, and I don’t know the uncle. What does it look like, if you have a fat head and big ears, I won’t be sick to death if you have sex with him?"

"Puff——haha..." Zhi Fan's stomach ached from laughing, and it took him a long time to hold back the pig-like eyes of Liu Lu, "Grandpa...Master is very good-looking! I won't lie to you, I have met Mrs. The best-looking man! Hmm... the eldest young master is resolute and handsome, and the second young master is handsome and handsome, but they are not as good as my uncle! And my uncle is so brave! The last time the eldest lady and I were almost bitten by a bat, it was my uncle who rescued me Us! If your mother insists on letting you be a concubine, my uncle is definitely a good man!" Very happy, very beaming!
Liu Lu thought of Shui Minyu again, and sighed quietly, "Although you are lonely, no one forces you to be a concubine. If you are lucky, you will come to the palace to ask the eldest lady for grace. It is not a bad idea to marry an innocent family. In my life... there is no way out, sooner or later my mother will sell me off."

This time, Zhifan comforted Liulu again: "Don't be discouraged, do things in a down-to-earth manner, and of course someone will see your goodness! Don't talk about being discouraged!" Zhifan smiled, and took out a bottle of wound ointment from his sleeve , Lifting Liu Lu's mattress again, Liu Lu was startled, "What are you doing?"

"Give you some medicine!" Zhi Fan patted her butt, almost uselessly, Liu Lu was still throbbing in pain, and cursed sharply, "You're going to die, little hooves! Be careful that I beat you!"

Zhi Fan glared at her: "The country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change! Just your stinky mouth will kill you sooner or later!" With his hands dipped in the ointment, he gently applied it to Liu Lu's affected area.

Liu Lu gasped in pain one after another: "Fuck off! I don't want you to apply medicine to my old lady!" Turning her head to struggle.

Zhifan held her down: "Be honest with me!"

"Tell you to go!"

"No matter how dishonest you are, I'll gag your mouth with a stinky sock!"

"you dare?"

"Do you think I dare?"

...

It rained heavily for three full days before it cleared up. Several lakes in the mansion overflowed, flooding three or two small courtyards. Everything in the Shangshu Mansion was good, but the terrain was too low.

Shui Linglong spread out the rice paper and began to practice calligraphy, but she was thinking carefully about what gift to give to the third princess. Without the third princess, Zhang Yuanping would never have come to the Shangshu Mansion. How could she repay such a big favor? Woolen cloth?

"Miss! It's not good!" Zhi Fan hurriedly opened the curtain and came in. A gust of cold wind came in, blowing away the papers on the two desks. To Shui Linglong, "I'm sorry, the servant is reckless!"

Really reckless!So unruly!Shui Linglong took the paper and said calmly, "What happened?"

"Aunt Feng... Aunt Feng hanged herself!" Zhi Fan was full of panic.

"Dead?" Shui Linglong raised her eyebrows.

Zhi Fan was taken aback, isn't the eldest lady very close to Aunt Feng in private?Why didn't you feel nervous at all after hearing the news?Her throat slid a little: "The rescue has come! Now I am kneeling in the Fushouyuan, waiting for the old lady to deal with it. The servant does not know the specific reason."

Shui Linglong glanced at her: "Kneel for an hour before getting up."

Zhifan lowered his head: "Yes!"

Shui Linglong took Ye Mao to the Fushouyuan. In the bright hall, the old lady was sitting upright, Qin Fangyi and Shui Lingxi were also there. This was the first time that Qin Fangyi stepped into the old lady's yard on her own initiative after the Chinese New Year.Qin Fangyi's face was covered with thick makeup powder and rouge, but from her dull eyes, it can be inferred that she is not living comfortably these days.

Aunt Lan stood aside respectfully, Shui Lingyu and Shui Lingqing knelt beside Aunt Feng respectively, and Shui Minhui sat next to the old lady, staring at the fragile Aunt Feng with complicated expressions.

"Grandmother! Mother!" Shui Linglong saluted the two politely.

The old lady said seriously: "Sit down." But she didn't ask her to sit beside her like before.

Shui Lingxi smiled in satisfaction, feeling the joy of victory, but with a casual glance, she caught a playful smile from the corner of Shui Linglong's mouth, and her heart skipped a beat for no reason!As if something bad was about to happen!But soon she denied this ominous premonition. Ever since she and the prince confirmed their marriage, she has never troubled Shui Linglong again. Shui Linglong should be... grateful to her!
Qin Fangyi sighed regretfully: "Aunt Feng, don't think that you can evade investigation by hanging yourself. I advise you to explain clearly and don't let anyone torture you."

Shui Lingqing burst into tears: "No...it's not like this...Mother, it must not be like this..."

The old lady was obviously angry to a certain extent, and directly yelled: "Shut up! If you cry again, you will be locked in the Buddhist hall!"

Shui Lingqing was startled, she bit her lip, not daring to cry anymore!
Shui Linglong's inquisitive gaze swept across Aunt Feng's ashen-faced face and Shui Minhui's complex eyes, and asked softly, "What's wrong with Aunt Feng?"

Qin Fangyi said in a strange way: "You still don't know, the shirt that the second young master is wearing was stitched by Aunt Feng stitch by stitch!"

As soon as the words fell, the old lady gave her a hard look!Qin Fangyi closed her mouth resentfully, but the smile in her eyes did not fade for a long time.

Shui Linglong had a panoramic view of Qin Fangyi's schadenfreude, and then said calmly: "Aunt Feng is the concubine mother of the third young master, sewing a dress is not a big deal, besides..."

"Oh, not only the coat, but also the coat, underwear and trousers are made by Aunt Feng one by one. This is really... considerate!" An aunt who is considerate of a handsome young master, this... is easy to make people think about it!Qin Fangyi was happy in her heart, but said sadly on her face, "When something like this happened, I was the first one to get off the stage. Aunt Feng was my dowry maid. At the beginning, I just let her be honest with the master. After getting through the room, and later she got pregnant and I made her a concubine, I gave her enough dignity, I never thought she would do such an unsightly thing!"

Shui Minhui retorted: "Mother! It's not what you think! Aunt Feng received favors from Aunt Tong in the past, so she took good care of me."

As soon as these words came out, the old lady's expression changed. At the same time, Aunt Feng and Aunt Tong were pregnant. Aunt Feng had a gentle temperament and was loved by Shui Hangge. She has bullied Aunt Feng a lot, will she give Aunt Feng a favor?Arabian Nights!
Shui Minhui saw the old lady's face getting more and more serious, and her heart... also sank suddenly!Did he say something wrong?

Shui Linglong stared suspiciously. If it was said that Aunt Feng had that kind of thought for Shui Minhui, she would never believe it, but if it was said that Aunt Feng was kind to Shui Minhui because of Aunt Tong's kindness, she would also find it hard to believe.A few days ago, Shui Lingqing also said that Aunt Feng was very busy and always locked herself in the room, fearing that she would not have time to make spring clothes for her, presumably Aunt Feng was busy preparing clothes for Shui Minhui to wear after school, He actually valued Shui Minhui more than Shui Lingqing!
Qin Fangyi smiled and said: "Minhui, it's not your mother who hit you. Your aunt hated Aunt Feng the most during her lifetime. Your aunt wanted to get rid of the piece of meat in Aunt Feng's stomach, so how could she be kind to her?"

Shui Minhui's face... instantly turned pale!He's not Aunt Tong's friend, so why treat him so well?

Qin Fangyi raised her hand and touched the red gold necklace on her hair bun, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, she looked at Shui Minhui, then at Aunt Feng, sat up straight and asked, "Minhui, Aunt Feng just recently Is it good for you, or is peeing good for you?"

"Recently! The servant girl has only recently been kind to the second young master! The second young master doesn't know! It's the maid who lied to the second young master!" Can't...can't let them discover this secret!She would rather die than expose her secrets to others!

Shui Minhui was dumbfounded, why are you lying?Also, the "good" in your mother's mouth seems to be different from what I understand?You... what the hell are you talking about?
Aunt Feng kowtowed heavily: "Old lady... maidservant..."

"I asked Aunt Feng to make clothes for Minhui!" Shui Linglong interrupted Aunt Feng, and looked at the old lady, tears flashed in her eyes, "Because in the whole house, only Minhui and I have not kissed each other." Mother’s child! When I saw Minhui, I would think of the lonely and helpless days in Zhuangzi, one year! My mother has only been gone for a year, and I feel that I am living in hell every day. I can’t eat enough. You don’t need to dress warmly, I just want my mother to sit on the bed with a smile when I open my eyes every day..."

Big teardrops slid down his cheeks, "I don't know how Minhui survived these ten years... I just wanted to treat him better, but I was afraid that he would not accept it, so I asked Aunt Feng , Is this...is it wrong? When I was in Chuang Tzu saying that every day should not be called the earth is not working, how much I hoped that someone would treat me suddenly! It’s just a heart-to-heart comparison!"

The old lady turned her face away and shed a tear.

Shui Minhui's eyes turned red, and there were also tears.

Shui Lingxi dropped a few drops of golden beans to match the sensational scene.

Qin Fangyi gave Shui Linglong a bitter look: "If Aunt Feng has no ghosts in her heart, why did she hang herself?"

Aunt Feng's heart was shocked!Lowering her head, she glanced at Shui Linglong from the corner of her eye. Shui Linglong picked up the teacup, covered her mouth with her sleeve, said a few words silently, and gestured again. Aunt Feng's eyes lit up, she quickly kowtowed, and said as if dying: "My maid...I can't bear Miss Wu's marriage to Governor Jiang!"

The old lady's hand shook, and the table was filled with tea: "What did you say? Who told you that Miss Fifth is going to marry Governor Jiang?"

Aunt Feng gritted her teeth and said, "The last time Aunt Zhou heard that Miss Fourth would marry Governor Jiang, she took the risk and plotted against Madam Jiang! But she never expected that the plan would fail and be grounded instead! Now Miss Fourth has become the emperor's precious treasure." Damn, Miss Fifth is the only one who can marry Governor Jiang! Maid is so sad! Maid can't stand such a blow, so she did something stupid..."

"And how do you know?"

"At that time, the servant girl was outside the garden, and vaguely heard the conversation between the two maidservants. The distance between them was too far to make it clear, but she listened to the words of marrying the fourth lady to Governor Jiang. The servant girl wanted to Notify Aunt Zhou, and Aunt Zhou's heart-piercing cry can be heard coming from the garden. The maid did not see her appearance clearly, but only knew that her voice was very young."

The old lady was furious: "Nonsense! Bring me Aunt Zhou! I want to see who she listens to!" The last time Shui Linglong mentioned this to her, she hadn't forgotten it, and now she almost Qin Fangyi shuddered when her son was killed!
Three quarters of an hour later, Aunt Zhou walked in with her stomach full. Her baby was conceived by Cheng Chong on the day Shui Linglong returned home. If Shui Linglong hadn't angered Shui Hangge and made Shui Hangge change her mind and leave Changlexuan instead After leaving her house, whether or not she has a baby is another matter.She glanced at Shui Linglong with a complicated expression, and bowed respectfully to the old lady: "The servant girl pays respects to the old lady."

"Give me a seat." The old lady gestured, and Mother Wang moved a stool for Aunt Zhou to sit down. The old lady went straight to the point, "Where did you hear about the marriage between Miss Fourth and Governor Jiang?"

"I didn't see the specific appearance clearly. When the servant girl chased them out, there were only two backs left. They seemed to be heading towards... Changle Xuan!" When people asked, she would answer like this.

Qin Fangyi's figure flickered, and panic appeared in his eyes: "It's a bunch of nonsense! How could the maid of Changlexuan talk about such things everywhere?"

Only Qin Fangyi, Shui Hangge and the old lady in the mansion knew about this marriage. The old lady thought it was leaked from her own yard, but now Aunt Zhou testified, combined with Aunt Zhou's frame of Qin Fangyi and Shui Lingyue's attempt to seduce the emperor For the abnormal behavior, the old lady could not even suspect that Qin Fangyi was the one who caused it!The anger in the old lady's heart suddenly ignited, if this vicious woman hadn't provoked the trouble, how could her daughter have messed up Shui Lingyue's scheme?She wished... to divorce her!

The old lady pointed at Qin Fangyi's nose, her cold eyes were like the fierce light of a beast, bloodthirsty and ruthless: "Even a maid can't be disciplined! From now on, you stay in the yard for me to reflect! Without my permission, You are not allowed to step out of Changle Pavilion! If you dare to disobey my order, don't blame me for breaking your legs!"

Is this to... restrain her feet?How could this be? !She is the daughter of the dignified prime minister's mansion!She is the first wife of the Minister of Rites again!She is also the mother of the princess!How could the old lady restrain her feet?And threatened her to break her leg? !Is this old woman crazy?

"Grandmother..." Shui Lingxi wanted to intercede for Qin Fangyi. Who knows that this confinement is the year of the monkey. If the old lady does not let go, she will not be accompanied by her aunt on her wedding day... what should I do? !

Shui Lingxi's eyes flickered, and she said, "Grandmother, if the third princess is hosting a banquet and mother is grounded, who will take us there?"

The old lady slammed the table hard, causing everyone to jump in fear: "Am I dead?"
