Counterattack of the Cannon Fodder Chambermaid
Chapter 53:
The next day, Xiaohua woke up very early. After breakfast, she was ready to go to the Changchun Courtyard to ask for peace.
The weather in Jingzhou is very cold, especially in winter. The snow period is very long. It always feels that the snow on the ground has not melted, and it starts to snow again.When Xiao Hua was eating breakfast in the house, she heard Ding Lan talking about light snow outside.
Xiao Hua put on a small jacket, wrapped in the cloak made by lilac yesterday. The cloak had a velvet face and fur inside.Holding a stove in his hand, wearing wooden clogs on his feet, and Lilac holding a green silk umbrella on the side, he doesn't feel cold outside.
The East Third House and the West Third House are in the east and the other in the west. There is a long distance from the West Third House to the East Third House.Xiaohua rarely wears wooden clogs in the past, not to mention that it is snowy, so she walks very slowly.
When she arrived at the Changchunyuan, Xiaohua found that everyone had arrived, so she was the latest.
She removed the outer cloak and clogs under the porch, and gave the stove to Lilac.When they walked to the hall, they respectfully gave a blessing to Princess Jing sitting in the upper corner and Princess Qiao, who was sitting in the upper left corner.
"Wangwang, please don't be offended, the maidservant is late."
These etiquettes and etiquettes were all told by Ding Xiang during small talks in the past two days. In the King's Mansion, except for the princess and the concubine Qiao, concubines like madam Ji who are in power must call themselves concubines, blessing This little flower does, but the posture of saluting here is more delicate.Lixiang dialed a few words, and she understood.
Today, Princess Jing wore a red engraved peony jacket with a smile on her face, very kind.I just forgot to scream, as if looking at Xiaohua.
Xiaohua wears a very simple dress today, with a light pink jacket with narrow sleeves and a moon-white satin skirt.Good-looking is good-looking. It looks soft when worn at a young age, but it is much simpler than the others in this hall.
And Xiaohua's dress is also very plain, which refers to the jewelry she wears.
According to Ding Xiang, a concubine with a position like Madam, every season will send a special jewellery to the Fuzhong. Xiaohua has just been promoted to Madam, and she also got a copy of the jewelry, just two gold hairpins, a pair of jade bracelets and two earrings , Certainly can't be compared with the accumulation of other people who have been King King's wives for many years.
Especially today, I don't know if these people are intentional or unintentional.All of them were dressed in gold and jade, and they were very gorgeous, even Princess Jing and Concubine Qiao, and the other two ladies were also extremely rich.
Comparing the two, Xiao Hua is really shabby.
An imperceptible look of contempt flashed in Princess Jing's eyes, Concubine Qiao hehe he couldn't hear the meaning twice, while Yu Rong spoke directly from the side.
"Sister Hua is really dressed up, isn't she waiting in Jingtai Hall for a while?"
Yujiao smiled and said, but Yuzang Jifeng said, "You really are, why do you say that? There are several kinds of waiters, and waiters who are not favored are no good."
Princess Jing gave a light cough, and seemed to realize that she hadn't screamed. She said with a face: "Sister, get up and sit down. The princess was a little dazed when she saw her sister's beautiful appearance."
Then she said softly,'Yes, too vegetarian', and smiled to Chunxiang on the side: "I will pick out a few pieces of jewelry that the princess didn't use before, and Mrs. Hua will bring them when she leaves." He smiled at Xiao Hua and said, "Sister, don't dislike it."
"The princess's things are good, and the maidservant's thanks are too late."
With just these few words, Xiao Hua could see the secret machine front.However, she was mentally prepared before coming, and she did not show any feelings of irritation.As for not screaming, let alone, what you learned in the discipline department at the beginning is not fake.
She half-cast her eyes, pursed her lips and smiled.Laughing makes people neither feel flattered nor rude.It is that there is less enthusiasm in the voice, telling everyone that she is actually not so grateful for what she said, but she can't fault it.
After all, the things expressed in this voice still need to be carefully understood. If you hear her, you know what she means, and you can't say anything if you don't hear it.
Xiao Hua is secretly looking at the women who need to be in contact frequently in the future, and the few people in the hall are looking at her.Only for a while, King Jing and Concubine Qiao realized that Mrs. Flower was not easy.The two idiots Yurong Yujiao laughed so naked, naked, and naked. This flower man can be so stable at fifteen, and the performance is polite and respectful, and there is nothing to choose from.
What they didn't know was that the ridicule, ridicule and insults Xiaohua had heard in her two lifetimes were gone, and Yujiao Yurong's two paragraphs were really not high for her.
Lilac had been standing in the back, and he was relieved to see Mrs. Hua's performance.
She thought that Mrs. Hua was young and had little insight. This was the first time I asked Ann to encounter such a situation. It was estimated that she would be uncomfortable and quarrel with others, but she didn't expect the first response to be very appropriate.
In the past two days, she has always had an unspoken and tacit attitude. She also figured out that she is not an opinionated person. From this performance today, it can be seen that she has a good idea, and such a person can be relieved by waiting.
Princess Jing said again,'We must wait on your Majesty, and be a man of duty'. Xiao Hua also respectfully said'Yes, thank you for your teachings' and other dialogues.
During this period, Xiao Hua sat down below, and the palace servant serving in the house made tea for each master and placed it on the flower table beside him.
After the scenes of King Jing was finished, it was a little cold for a while.
Concubine Qiao has been sitting there smiling, without speaking, her expression is unclear, but Yujiao speaks again, "My sister is said to be a palace man who sold herself into the mansion, where is the house?"
They belong to the same rank, but Yujiao is a few years older than Xiaohua, so she can be called a younger sister.
Seeing that she was born beautiful, fair and beautiful, but her face was covered with obvious sarcasm, she smiled with her eyelashes, and said: "Yes, the maidservant was sold into the house, and she didn't have a home. When a flood of water comes from my hometown, my family sells it."
The hall was extremely quiet for an instant, and it is estimated that no one would dare to imagine that Mrs. Flower would actually say so.
Generally, people from low births, once gained power, wish that everyone in the world would not know what their birth was. Yujiao also thought about this, and wanted to embarrass her a little bit. I didn't expect that others would be so big without scruples. Speak out stabbingly.
Xiao Hua knew what this Madam Yujiao meant, and the embarrassment was never given by others, but by herself.She was originally from a humble background, and these people estimated that all of them had almost touched her, so why bother to cover up and add jokes.
It's a pity that she didn't understand this truth in her previous life, and it was not uncommon for her to face each other tit for tat because of this matter. After returning to life in this life, Xiao Hua chose to show it openly when encountering such a situation.
Seeing the silence in the hall at this moment, she curled her lower lips imperceptibly.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall was a little stagnant, Princess Jing said: "This princess's new tea has been reluctant to drink. Today, I will take it out to entertain all the sisters. Let's try it."
When you are generally embarrassed, you can cover it up by drinking tea.Otherwise, you're embarrassed, the big eyes staring at the small eyes will only make you more embarrassed. If you make a difference, you can also eliminate the embarrassment.
Yujiao borrowed the donkey from Poxia to pick up the tea cup and sip it lightly. The people in the hall did the same.
Xiao Hua also picked up the tea cup, as if thinking about something, put it down again, and said: "The maidservant heard the princess once said that Sister Yujiao is a nobleman from the palace, and the palace must be very luxurious." There was a little bit of envy in it.
Concubine Qiao raised her eyebrows and smiled quite meaningfully. When Concubine Jing saw Xiao Hua's movements, her eyes were darkened, and she also put down the tea cup in her hand.
Yujiao set aside the tea cup, glanced at Xiaohua sarcastically, and said: "The imperial aura of the palace is something you and others of humble background can't see..." After the sarcasm was finished, she began to talk about how the palace is. The solemn and luxurious style, and so on, looked proud and extremely disdainful.
Xiaohua also put on a gesture of listening very carefully.
Yu Rong wanted to cover her face a bit, but she didn't know how to interrupt Yu Jiao.
The smile on Concubine Qiao's face increased, just with a hint of ridicule.
When Yujiao finally finished describing what she could say, she heard Xiaohua say something over there, "Sister Yujiao is so familiar with the palace, the family must belong to the palace."
Yujiao who said this sentence choked on the spot.
How could it be possible that the family belonged to the imperial palace? Everyone knew that the imperial palace members were selected from the folks.
There was a selection system in the Daxi dynasty, and the royal employees were selected from the innocent and good daughters.Generally better families will not send their daughters to the palace to wait for others at the moment. The palace people can be released from the palace only after they are twenty-five years old. At that time, they are usually old girls who are not good at marrying.
To put it another way, when you enter the palace as a palace man, no matter what kind of people you are, you are all servants who wait on people.
The meaning of Xiaohua's remarks is very obvious. Are you ridiculing that I am a slave and maidservant? Are you not?It's just that her way is a little more obscure, unlike Yu Jiao who seemed to be so straightforward and vulgar just now.
However, it was because of her subtle way of sarcasm that she slapped her face at this time by throwing out the phrase, "It must be in the palace."
Yujiao just didn't have much brain, but she wasn't stupid, so she reacted on the spot.
"you--"
Xiaohua relied on her young age, short knowledge and shallow eyelids, and blinked her ignorant eyes, "Isn't Sister Yujiao from the palace?"
Didn't she look down on her humble background, she didn't have much knowledge, she really didn't have much knowledge.
Yujiao was choked again.
King Jing came out to complete the game, "It's alright, this is the King's Mansion in Jingzhou. Talk about what to do so far, and drink tea and tea."
This is the second time that Princess Jing has said to drink tea. The person who wanted to borrow the donkey from the slope took up the ladder. It was the tea cup that Xiaohua still hadn't moved on the flower table and sat there with his eyes half-downcast.
"Ms. Hua doesn't like drinking tea?" Princess Jing asked with a smile, unconsciously squeezing the tea soup with the bowl lid in her hand.
Xiaohua smiled on her face, but she said embarrassedly in her mouth: "The maidservant can't drink this well. When I was a maidservant in the past, where I could drink any tea, they all drank white water. Moved to the yard. I live, there is also tea in the case, but it is a pity that my concubine can't sleep after drinking it, so she doesn't drink tea anymore. The princess' tea is a good tea, but it's a pity that the concubine has no blessing to share."
King Jing said oh and stopped talking.
After a short while, Princess Jing put down the tea cup in her hand and said, "This has been going on for so long, and this princess will not leave you all. It is snowing outside and the road is slippery, so be careful on the road."
Only then did the few people sitting in the lower head stand up, salute King Jing again, and then retreated.
Out of the house under the porch, Ding Xiang and Ding Lan served Xiao Hua and put on their cloaks. The temperature of the hand stove was not too hot, but it was still a little hot, and Xiao Hua was held in his hands.
Putting on the wooden clogs and opening the blue silk umbrella, Xiao Hua took the cloves out of the Changchun Courtyard.
From the Changchunyuan, there are two roads to return to the residence of Xiaohua West Courtyard. One is from the front of Jingtai Palace and the other is from the back. The distance from the back is farther. Dingxiang sees the snow falling and falling outside. When he got older, he carefully supported Xiao Hua to walk from a closer path.
"Madam is really amazing. I saw Madam Yujiao's face was purple just now." Ding Lan said from the side.
Xiao Hua chuckled lightly and said non-committal, "No way, I can't let people slap them. I won't return them yet."
??? Actually, Xiao Hua still knows who can provoke and who can’t. In other words, Princess Jing and Concubine Qiao said what she said today. She can only bear it.
But Yujiao, with the same rank, is still unfavorable. Since she dared to come forward and be a cannon, she wanted to use it to show her attitude.
Even if you are submissive, you have to tell everyone that you are not a persimmon.
After changing his status, he can't handle things like before, and he can't just give in or not. It's not easy to handle this measure.
The little flower fell into her own contemplation, and the tiny snowflakes rustled down.The air is full of coolness in the heart, breathing into the cavities and lungs to make the brain particularly awake.
Ding Xiang suddenly said to the side: "Madam, it seems to be His Royal Highness over there."
The author has something to say: In the topic, King Jing is not a very smart person, and it should be seen before.Xiaohua is not a fool, ~(≧▽≦)/~.Over the past two days, I have been watching everyone worrying about the situation of Xiao Huahua. In fact, I really want to say that apart from the suppression of identity, King Jing really has no advantage.If you think about it, you can understand that first, the house is not in the hands of Princess Jing, but in the hands of Aunt Qi, and second, it is not favored.
