Lord, don't be afraid, the princess is not angry

Chapter 23
Mrs. Sun didn't go back to the main courtyard after she came out from the west chamber. She has nothing to do today, and she has nothing to do when she goes back to the courtyard.After walking for a while, Xiao Hua, who was also kicked out, followed her.One person and one dog were relatively speechless, so they strolled around the garden, and saw a person kneeling in the pavilion of the garden. Sun stared at it for a while before recognizing that it was Shixiang, and immediately remembered the punishment for punishing Shixiang. thing.When the mansion was selecting maids earlier, she added two girls to them. She thought that they were good at hands and feet, but now that they had a maid to serve them and provide food and clothing, they lived a good life, so she didn't think about those few people any more.When they were on New Year's Eve, they said they wanted to greet her, but she blocked her back. At that time, she didn't even think that Shixiang was still being punished.

Walking to the pavilion, she saw that the charming girl who was still radiant a few days ago now looked haggard and her lips were white. She felt a little ashamed. She didn't want Shixiang to kneel for so long at that time. Kneeling outside in the cold weather would make her suffer a lot. ah.She really forgot it for a while, you know, there were a lot of things when she first arrived in Cheng's mansion, it was impossible to remember everything.

"Get up, you don't need to kneel in the future." She said coyly.

"Thank you Madam for your kindness." Shi Xiang burst into tears of gratitude. She thought it would be fine if Mrs. Sun asked her to kneel for a few days, but after kneeling for a few months, Mrs. Sun ignored her even when she was seriously ill. She thought she would She died like this, she was still young and didn't want to die.Although she would be a little lazy when she saw that there was no one to supervise her, it was difficult even standing in the windy pavilion in winter.This time she was really afraid of kneeling, she dared to get up only after Mrs. Sun asked her to get up, and she followed Mrs. Sun with a low eyebrow and waited for the training.

"Let's go and have a look at the yard where you guys live." Sun suddenly said, after coming for so long, she only went to the back one to enter the house on the first day. how.

"Yes, madam." Shi Xiang replied.

The courtyard where the four beauties lived was the largest among the last ones. Although the house was rudimentary and there was no view, but Cheng Dashan's mansion had been renovated as a whole before moving in, so the house was at least good.There are only two main houses in this courtyard. After asking Cheng Dashan for instructions, Butler Zhong separated the two main houses for two girls.

At the beginning, Qinglan and Yingge lived in one room, and Longyu and Shixiang lived in one room. After a few days of staying, Longyu and Shixiang had a quarrel, and they switched rooms because Shixiang disliked Yingge as a concubine. Since she was born as a girl, Qinglan can only live with her.Qing Lan is very talkative, even when she hears her complaints, she still responds with a light smile.Shixiang always said that she had attended the flower banquet in the past or wanted to know the fashionable clothes styles nowadays, but seeing that Qinglan didn't respond very well and felt boring, she always liked to go to the garden in front of her.After Mrs. Sun came, she didn't go shopping again.

The yard was managed by two old women and two maids, but later because a woman released poems at night and was sold out of the yard, there was one less person. So Sun added two rough envoy girls to the yard.The four of them were quite open-minded, each of the four maids took one, and they usually did the chores in the courtyard together, but the private work of each was done by the maids chosen by each of them.

The woman who guards the gate is also doing some sweeping work. She was sleepy in the afternoon and was leaning against the door to take a nap and didn't go to the pavilion in front to see if Shixiang was kneeling. When she heard footsteps, she opened her eyes and saw Shixiang and Sun's together When she came over, she thought that Shixiang had caused some trouble again, so she knelt down in a cold sweat from fright.A mother-in-law of her age has no family members, so if she is sold again, she probably won't find a good place to sell her. It's impossible for her to only do some easy chores in Cheng's mansion.

As soon as the woman knelt down, Sun was also startled, this was a great gesture, the gatekeeper would not usually perform such a gesture when she saw her.Not knowing what was going on, Mrs. Sun glanced at her and walked past her into the yard without saying anything.

From Mrs. Sun's point of view, their yard is still quite square, and it is enough for their family of five to live in the countryside. Now it is very spacious for four girls.But it's not a solution to keep this person all the time, she can't keep them for nothing, even if they are bestowed by the emperor, so he doesn't miss so many beauties in the palace, but wants to send them away?She didn't believe it.

Seeing her coming, the rough envoy girl was stunned for a moment, saluted hastily, and then went in to tell the girls inside. The people inside hurriedly adjusted their clothes and came out to greet her.Seeing that the three of them were neatly dressed and walking on tiptoes, Sun felt that what Nanny Wang said just now was not a lie. The young lady from a rich family is really different. Can the three wild girls in her family really become like this?She really didn't believe it.

"Get up, I'm here for a stroll and take a look, you don't need to be formal." Mrs. Sun waved her hand and said.

"Yes, ma'am."

Saying so, Sun turned around and went into Qing Lan and Shi Xiang's room.Because there was a commotion when Shixiang was building the room, the room of the two of them was much brighter than that of Longyu and the others, and the room was even slightly scented.Mrs. Sun sniffed lightly, touched her nose, and looked around.

"I don't know Madam came today, but the house was not tidied up, Madam please don't blame me." Qing Lan said respectfully, raised her eyes slightly to see Sun's expression, and said: "Madam, why not sit down and have a cup of tea, but there is no such thing here at this slave's house." For the best tea, only a box of Longjing tea is decent.”

"Okay, you can arrange it." Sun didn't pay much attention to these things, and she only started drinking tea recently, and she used to drink water with tea foam at most.

Qing Lan retreated respectfully, and came up with tea after a while.Seeing her, Mrs. Sun always felt a little awkward.Qinglan's family background is not low, even though she followed Cheng Dashan in vain now, but her demeanor is still there, and there is a sense of nobility in every gesture, which is something Sun can't compare to.After taking a sip of tea, although Mrs. Sun didn't understand, she also knew that the tea tasted better than the one she drank.

She remembered that the expenses of the mansion also include tea. Generally, there are good and bad teas bought, and some special teas are for entertaining distinguished guests and giving away.Mrs. Sun also drank good tea once, and she lost a tael of silver in one sip. She felt very distressed after drinking it, but the tea here at Qinglan was even better than what she drank that day.

"Is your tea from the mansion?" Mrs. Sun couldn't help asking.

"Hui Madam is telling the truth. The slave's family entrusted the shopping mother to go outside to buy it."

Without the permission of the master and wife, they are not allowed to go out, especially after Shixiang committed a crime, they can only stay in the last courtyard, and only Shixiang is punished to kneel every day before they are allowed to go to the front.Before that, the four of them could still talk to the servants in the mansion. After all, there was no mistress in the mansion at that time, and they were beauties bestowed by the emperor, so they were quite respectable.

"I remember that your monthly bill is two taels of silver per month. Can this buy tea?" Mrs. Sun looked at the bill and knew that high-quality tea is not cheap.

"Madam is generous, there is no shortage of all kinds of things in the house, and the slave family has no other hobbies, so this month's routine is spent on tea."

"You finally bought it with money, but now you let me, who doesn't know much about tea, drink it." Sun smiled and told Ruyi: "I remember that Mrs. Yan sent a bag of tea before, you go and get it. Give it to Miss Qinglan."

"Yes." Ruyi replied and hurriedly left.

Qing Lan quickly thanked her.Seeing that Shixiang was standing on the side legs trembling with Shili, Sun asked her to go back to the house first, and let the others go down by the way.

"Come here and let me have a look, I always feel that you have a fragrance of flowers on your body." Mrs. Sun waved at her, with a faint smile on her face.
