Chapter 556

Generally, the people here are either demoted, or they have nothing to do with the mansion, and they can't trust anyone, so they can only find someone with this kind of errand. Everyone is not at ease here, and they all think of ways to leave. .

After all, washing clothes is too tiring and hurts your hands. In winter, you don’t need hot water to wash people’s clothes, and your hands will often freeze and crack. Therefore, some people can’t go out, so they try to upgrade here. Well, being able to wash the clothes of the masters is also a kind of privilege. Therefore, even though it is a place with only a few dozen people, it is also a small river and lake, and intrigues often occur.

From a distance, the woman guarding the garden saw the concubine and Jinniang coming, hurriedly opened the door, and bowed obediently to the side to greet them. They were not surprised, because yesterday they were here in the yard. The great god is worshiping in the yard now, who would dare to let her do the laundry for the son's own mother?

Now that the princess and the young mistress are here, I understand more and more in my heart that maybe it will be just a show tomorrow, and I will have to take him back today. No matter how serious the crime is, it will not be possible with the elder It really made her stay in this kind of place for a long time. After all, the prince, the concubine, and the second wife all want face. Moreover, even if the prince doesn't favor this person, she is still a dignified side concubine, isn't she?

When the concubine and Jinniang entered the courtyard, the woman said with great insight: "My aunt is resting in the east room, are the concubine and madam going to see her?"

After hearing this, the princess looked at Jinniang, smiled knowingly, and went directly to the east room without saying anything.

He Xiang, Aunt Liu's personal maid over there, was taken aback when she saw that the concubine and Jin Niang had come, but seeing the smiles on their faces, she felt a bit more at ease, but she still walked into the room where Aunt Liu was.

Jinniang didn't mind either, she just let the two women lead the way and followed closely.

In the room, Aunt Liu was lying on the reclining chair halfway, her head resting on her hands, her brows were frowning, she didn't know what she was thinking.

He Xiang walked in anxiously, seeing Aunt Liu's appearance, she didn't dare to speak loudly, and called softly: "Master...", Aunt Liu then said softly, "Mmm..." Without raising her eyes, she reprimanded: " I asked you to get some bird's nests, have you brought them yet?"

As soon as He raised his eyes, he saw that the two maids had already closed the curtains, Wangfei and Jinniang filed in, and He Xiang hurriedly came forward to salute: "Servant, send greetings to Wangfei and Madam!"

Aunt Liu opened her eyes immediately when she heard this, and sat up suddenly. There was a look of panic between her brows and eyes, but when she saw that the faces of the princess and Jinniang were still warm, she calmed down again. Eyes, then leaned back and lay back.

"Auntie is so bold, she's so calm even now." Jinniang sneered as she walked into the house, paced in the room, and casually looked at the room where Auntie Liu lived. It is clean and tidy, and the house is fully equipped with daily necessities. Moreover, many people can tell that it was Aunt Liu who sent someone to move it from her own yard.

Such as the imperial concubine couch where she lay herself, the exquisite nanmu small table beside the bed, the purple jade sand pot on the small table, the sandalwood burning in the room, the celestial silk gauze hanging on the bed, and the warm white jade at the head of the bed. The pillow, the palace satin quilt embroidered with peonies facing the sun, and even the porcelain stove for burning incense are all produced by high-quality official kilns. Although the room is small, it is full of luxury everywhere. It seems that Aunt Liu is not punished here. It's like on vacation.

Aunt Liu snorted coldly, turned away, and ignored no one, acting like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.

The princess frowned when she saw it, and when she was about to speak, Jin Niang winked at her, smiled and said to He Xiang: "Did Auntie bring these things last night?"

He Xiang turned pale when she heard this, and looked at Aunt Liu, Jin Niang's eyes became sharper, but her expression was calm.

He Xiang shrank her neck in fright when she saw it, and replied in a low voice: "Mrs. Hui, it was indeed the one who moved here yesterday."

"That's really hard work for you guys. I don't know who is so enthusiastic to help my aunt arrange this place so well?" Jin Niang's smile deepened, and she spoke politely, not as harsh as yesterday.

He Xiang let out a long breath, lowered her head and replied: "Ma'am, it was made by several mothers in Auntie's own courtyard. Auntie is not in good health, and the house is a bit damp. Those things from before They were not clean, so I threw them all away and replaced them with these..."

"Oh, that's it." Jin Niang nodded.

Aunt Liu on the bed found it strange. The words Jinniang said when she entered the door just now made her tremble with fear. She didn't dare to answer at all, so she had no choice but to resist with speechlessness. Now Jinniang's tone seems to be a little bit afraid of herself, It seems that I have to give Tang'er some face. My son is a fourth-rank official, and I am also a third-rank side concubine. No matter how capable Sun Jinniang is, she can only show herself to herself. What can I do with myself, but... that old guy has gone out today and hasn't come back yet, so she won't talk too much and cause something to happen.

Just as she was thinking about it, she heard Jinniang suddenly raise her voice: "Come here, call in all the women who are helping Auntie deliver things."

He Xiang was startled when he heard that, and looked at Jin Niang in horror, not knowing what she was going to do, one of the women who came with him just now pulled He Xiang and said: "Miss He Xiang, please go and identify them, and see which ones they are. The sister-in-law helped my aunt with an errand, so please invite them all over."

He Xiang felt that things were going badly, so she kept on pissing on Aunt Liu, but Aunt Liu's heart was like fifteen sticks fetching water, fluttering, thinking about countermeasures, how could she control her.

After a while, the woman and He Xiang brought four women together, they were the mothers in charge of Aunt Liu's courtyard, and they knelt down in front of Jinniang and the princess as soon as they entered the door. The atmosphere did not dare to come out.

Jinniang sneered and said: "Yesterday, Madam Ben issued an order to punish Aunt Liu to do laundry in the room for a year. As a result, you guys served her more comfortably than Madam Ben and I. Hmph, you What is being Mrs. Ben? Hmm!"

The women didn't dare to say a word, they just felt wronged, Aunt Liu's position is still there, although she was punished, but she is still their master, the master wants them to do things, can they not do it ?
