The Stratagem of the Concubine of the Cold King

Chapter 17 Making a living
"Yunjie's death, Master Hou and Jingzhao Mansion Yin have found out the truth in public. It was the work of the lowly maid Lianzhu. This matter ends here. If anyone makes trouble again, my wife will punish him severely."

"Yes, mother." Xi Zhuhua and Xi Wanqing responded at the same time, although Xi Zhuhua was extremely reluctant, but Da Furen dared not disobey the order.

This matter just came to an end, and Xi Zhuhua didn't take advantage of it at all.

She had a pair of jade peaks on her chest, and she was still in pain at this moment. On this matter, she just knocked out her teeth and swallowed in her stomach.

After the three of them left the bamboo courtyard, Xi Zhuhua clenched his teeth and clenched his hands into fists.

The third aunt hurriedly comforted her from the side: "Miss Fourth, don't get so angry, we will slowly find a chance to deal with that little bitch in the future."

Xi Zhuhua took a long breath and eased his expression: "Auntie, do you find that little bitch is a little different from before? She actually knows how to act first and find her mother. Naturally, mother will not defend us like father. "

After being reminded by Xi Zhuhua, Third Aunt recalled carefully for a moment, and said slowly: "Hearing what Miss Fourth said, Auntie thinks that little bitch is a little strange today. In the past, that little bitch was so stupid that he had no clue Brain, we are all on the same page, but after the execution ground and the incident just now, this little bitch escaped unharmed, which is a bit unreasonable."

Xi Zhuhua nodded slightly, expressing her approval of San Yiniang's words.

"We have to be careful in what we do in the future, so as not to kill that little bitch, but get ourselves into it instead."

After San Yiniang and others left, Xi Wanqing also asked Xi Bojian and the eldest lady to leave. After the two agreed, Xi Wanqing turned and left with Lian Xin.

Da Furen and Xi Zhuyan also watched Xi Wanqing leave with scrutiny. At this moment, both of them were secretly speculating: "Could it be that this little bitch changed his temper after being tortured in the execution ground, and Xi Zhu painted it on her face?" There is no benefit in hand."

Under the scrutiny of the two, Xi Wanqing took Lian Xin and left calmly, returning to Ziyuexuan.

After returning to Ziyuexuan, Xi Wanqing did not let Lian Xin take care of her, and treated the wounds on her body alone in front of the bronze mirror in the room.

"Xi Wanqing looked at his current appearance in the bronze mirror. He was not very old, and his eyebrows and eyes looked a little immature. It may be due to malnutrition, his body was a little hungry, his complexion was a little yellow, and his hair was not very good, dry and frizzy. , except for these shortcomings, this predecessor is not bad looking, the facial contour is very good, it is a standard beauty face, the nose is high but still small and exquisite, the small cherry mouth is crystal clear, and the two willow eyebrows on the forehead are clean and delicate , especially those eyes, like a pool of autumn water, between the smiles, it is even more curved like two stars and moons, the pupils are dark and shiny, as if they are about to ripple, who says she is ugly, she believes that as long as this body is properly After a long period of time, she will surely become a dazzling beauty."

After Xi Wanqing took care of her injury in front of the mirror and changed into a new dress, it was already evening.

"Miss, it's time for dinner." Lian Xin walked into the room with the plates in her hand, and carefully placed each plate on the table.

Xi Wanqing walked to the dining table and saw that the food was extremely poor.

A plate of green vegetables, a plate of tofu, and a few steamed buns, this is the meal of the dignified Anguo Houfu Fifth Miss. No wonder this body lacks nutrition.

Although Xi Wanqing felt that the food was shabby, she didn't say much. It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, so Lian Xin must have tried her best.

"Sit down and eat." Xi Wanqing sat down, rolled up her sleeves, picked up a steamed bun, started to eat slowly, and ordered Lian Xin to sit down and eat together.

Lian Xin was touched at first, and then she refused: "Miss, you can eat first, after you finish eating, the servant will not be too late to eat."

Seeing that the Lian Xin pestle was still in place, Xi Wanqing said in a more emphatic tone: "If I tell you to sit down, just sit down. Why are you talking so much?"

Facing the young lady with such a strong aura, Lian Xin really didn't dare to disobey anymore, she went to the table and sat down obediently, and had dinner with Xi Wanqing.

Xi Wanqing said while eating: "If you want to continue to follow me, you must become more courageous. If someone who is equal to you bullies you, how do you bully you, you can return it anyway. You can't afford it." People, don't be too scared, you can't afford to provoke, let me handle it."

After Xi Wanqing finished speaking lightly, Lian Xin put down the steamed bun in her hand, looked at Xi Wanqing with blurred eyes and said, "Miss, don't you want your servant?"

Xi Wanqing looked at Lian Xin so sad: "Great girl didn't understand the point of her words."

"Well, if you continue to be timid and fearful, I don't want you anymore." Xi Wanqing replied lightly.

In order to encourage this girl to become more courageous, she must say no matter how cruel she is, and she must not soften her heart.

Sure enough, as soon as Xi Wanqing finished speaking, Lian Xin stubbornly wiped away her tears, and said angrily: "Miss, Lian Xin will definitely work hard, and she will no longer be timid and afraid of getting into trouble."

Although the food was shabby, the master and the servant were still well fed. So many things happened on the first day of time travelling. Xi Wanqing was indeed a little tired. She went to bed early that night and had no dreams. until dawn.

In the early morning, Xi Wanqing was wearing a light old dress and exercising in the yard. She has always been used to getting up early and breathing the fresh air in the morning. The air here does not contain any impurities, which she especially likes. Besides, doing more activities in the morning is good for the body's recovery , now this body is too weak, in order to protect herself, she has to make a good plan to restore her previous skills.

"Miss, the washing water is here." Lian Xin came with a basin of hot water.

After Xi Wanqing finished exercising her muscles and bones, there were crystal beads of sweat on her forehead. She walked over to take the towel from Lian Xin and wiped it off.

Lian Xin who was at the side happily muttered: "Miss, it's time to issue monthly regulations again today. Also, His Royal Highness Su Wang has come to visit the mansion, and he is in the east courtyard at the moment."

No wonder Lian Xin was shy when she mentioned Su Wang Feng Yixiao. This Su Wang Feng Yixiao was born of the empress, the son of the royal family, and naturally had a very high status. A concubine is the object of mutual pursuit by the noble ladies of Nanheng Country.

"Oh." Xi Wanqing just oh, wiped his face, and handed the towel back to Lian Xin, showing indifference to these two matters.

Indeed, Xi Wanqing was indifferent to Su Wang Feng Yixiao's arrival. As for the money, she was very concerned about it. Xi Wanqing secretly planned in her heart, isn't today the day for issuing monthly regulations? If she can use Su Wang to get more money , wouldn't it be great.

After breakfast, the maid who distributed the monthly packages came to Ziyuexuan.

The servant girl was extremely reluctant to step into Ziyue Pavilion, seeing Xi Wanqing was also full of contempt, and said with no respect at all: "Miss Fifth, this is the monthly money and daily necessities that Madam Yue gave you this month."
