Chapter 258: A show of force
"Miss Yue, my wife said that you must go there today." The girl who came to deliver the message was quite confident, and she opened her mouth to perfectly imitate the tone of Mrs. Xie's words.
Xie Fengyue glanced at her and replied: "I know, I'll go there after I pack up."
But the girl tilted her head and raised her lips, as if she must leave now, "My wife said that I will personally pick you up today."
Xie Fengyue stopped eating and raised her head to look directly at her. She did not shy away from her master's gaze and just looked at him blankly, with arrogance on her brows and eyes.
"What's your name and what's your position in Mother's Home?"
The arrogance on the eldest girl's face did not diminish: "My name is Yuantao. Because of her good job, my wife made an exception last month and was promoted to the first-class girl in the courtyard."
"Oh, first-class girl, you are not even a female envoy in the inner courtyard. Looking at your tone, I thought you were promoted to be a girl in the palace." Xie Fengyue blew the water in the bowl. Porridge, he opened his mouth lightly.
Yuantao pursed her lips tightly. She didn't dare to accept these words.
Xie Fengyue saw that she still had some brains, and she didn't want to get angry with this little girl. Yuantao could boss her around like this, probably because he often heard Mrs. Xie scolding her without hesitation, so he followed suit. , and he was so arrogant when he told me anything.
"Just wait outside the door. I'll finish my breakfast first and then follow you there."
Yun Tao was about to open her mouth, but her sleeve was pulled by Chun Shui beside her, so she reluctantly followed Chun Shui out.
As soon as she left Xie Fengyue's sight, Yuan Tao couldn't help complaining: "Miss Yue really thinks that she is a serious lady of the Xie Mansion. She even dares to shirk the wife's affairs."
Chun Shui stretched out his hand to make a shushing gesture and looked at her with difficulty: "Don't say these words in front of the masters. These are all the masters' business. We slaves only need to serve them respectfully."
Yuantao didn't agree with this, he pursed his lips: "What can she do if she hears it? Could it be that she dares to go beyond Madam and deal with me? I am a first-class maid in Madam's courtyard, and I am not one of those in the house who can be manipulated by her. Disposal of servants.”
It’s hard to persuade the damn ghost with good words. Chunshui only said this for the sake of everyone being slaves. Seeing that she was stubborn, he didn’t bother to care about her, but he still reminded him out of his last conscience: "Yue The girl is not like the kind of girl from aristocratic family who sticks to the rules, you are the best”
"What else? I didn't provoke her, so she couldn't find a reason to punish me."
"Hey~" Chun Shui sighed.
At first, she was sorting books in the master's front yard. She occasionally heard the master mention Moon Girl, but they were always sighing with praise. It was obvious that she was interested in this daughter who was named, because she knew this. , she didn’t want to report what she saw and heard yesterday to the master.
If she was an unfavored girl, she could have acted as a repayer and told the master all the big and small things in this courtyard. But unfortunately, this month girl is a favored one, so she can only pick up some capable ones. It's been said.
She is now an errand in the hands of Miss Yue. If she offends her, it will be a trivial matter if she has a bad life. She is afraid that if she is not careful, she will end up wrapped in a straw mat.
Seeing that he was lost in thought, Yuantao poked her arm dissatisfied: "Don't you think what I said makes sense?"
Chun Shui smiled a little reluctantly: "That makes sense. You can rest for a while while I wait for the girl to eat."
When Chun Shui came back, Xie Fengyue had already swallowed the last mouthful of porridge. She smiled slightly and said, "Are you afraid that I will take action against her? Go and remind her?" Since yesterday, Xie Fengyue has stopped treating Chun Shui like a snake. Anyway, She was holding something important that could kill her, and acting all day long was tiring.
Chun Shui's eyelids twitched, and he wanted to kneel down, but Xie Fengyuexu helped him: "Forget it, let's go quickly, don't let Yuantao wait in a hurry, she will say something disgusting to me later. , it may not be what you want.”
Chun Shui nodded dullly and didn't reply.
She now has a rough idea of this girl's temper. She won't talk too much when serving her, which means she gets the job done well.
Xie Fengyue was very satisfied with Chunshui's knowledge and casually rewarded her with two ingots of silver.
Chun Shui was even more silent. She supported Xie Fengyue with one hand, took the round fan with the other hand, and silently fanned Xie Fengyue.
Xie Fengyue and Mrs. Xie never dealt with each other, so she entered the back room, and Xie Fengyue sternly ordered Xie Fengyu to give her power.
"Look how you don't respect me at all. Yu'er's yard is further away than you. She has already rushed over. You still waited until everyone was here before coming. What you know is that you gave me This mother is saying hello. Those who didn’t know it thought it was you who came to accept everyone’s greetings.”
After saying that, she looked at Xie Fengyue and said: "Your sister Yue has never lived in Xie's Mansion. Please teach her more when you have time, so as not to make the people living in the mansion laugh."
Xie Fengyu frowned, "I came here to have a meal with my mother. Naturally, I came a little early. She doesn't have a meal here, so why did she come so early?" She pointed in the direction of Xie Rui and continued: "They Didn’t the front foot just arrive?”
Mrs. Xie was blocked by her daughter, and she couldn't scold her in front of so many people. After giving her a blank look, she had no choice but to vent her anger on Xie Fengyue.
"Why are you sitting so far away? Is it possible that I can still eat you?"
Xie Fengyue stood up expressionlessly and changed positions.
Seeing that she didn't talk back, Mrs. Xie casually found some gossip about Shengjing officials and family members to chat with Aunt Zhao.
This move was obviously in response to Xie Fengyue. Although Xie Fengyu was not in Shengjing all year round, she had been taught about the relationship between ladies and ladies in Shengjing. Xie Rui and Aunt Zhao lived in Shengjing, so this was also true. What he knew well was that only Xie Fengyue had only come to Shengjing not long ago, and he had no elders to socialize with him, so he knew nothing about it.
While Mrs. Xie was talking and laughing, she glanced at Xie Fengyue with her peripheral vision. Seeing that there was no embarrassment on her face, she became depressed again.
Even though she didn't have enough power, she still had to continue singing. Mrs. Xie raised a smile and said, "Yue'er, actually I asked you to come here today because I have something to discuss with you."
"Mother's words are serious. The word "consultation" does not come from the discussion between elders and juniors. If mother has already made a decision, then let her follow her decision."
Xie Fengyue didn't answer the question directly, and couldn't find any fault in what he said.
Mrs. Xie cursed in her heart. She couldn't deal with Liu Qinglan, an old bitch, and she couldn't take care of the little bitch she gave birth to.
She coughed twice, adjusted her tone, and said with a smile on her face: "I still have to tell you, after all, this is a matter of your life."
