Chapter Four Aunt

"You are Liuli." The princess condescends, and the anger and madness of last night are invisible.

Liuli held the teacup, and the tea inside was boiling hot and filled with it. She didn't move, lowering her eyebrows and pleasing to her eyes.

The pink embroidered wedding dress is low-key and exquisite. The fabric is appreciated by Mrs. Hou, and the material is given by the emperor. She traces her slender eyebrows and puts a little pink. She is beautiful, charming, gentle and beautiful. There are not many beads and hairpins in her hair, which is just right and highlights her temperament.

Who would have thought that this was just a maid in the mansion.

"Returning to the prince's concubine, she is the slave." Liuli didn't raise her eyes. If the prince's concubine didn't drink this cup of tea, she could not change it to her concubine.

She knelt here and had already had the opportunity to make an incense stick.

The princess intentionally made things difficult for him, so he simply became a maid over the years, which was not something he could not bear.

She had thought of it for a long time.

"It's really a beauty, otherwise how could I succeed in getting to power? I'm a lowly embryo." Princess Jiang Mingxue snorted coldly.

I heard that the princess had a special personality, but I didn’t expect it to be so special. He has a scholarly family and a noble status, but I am just like that.

Liuli thought in her heart that she had never shown any expression on her face, and being content with her own self-righteousness was her way of survival.

"The Prince's Concubine." Jiang Mingxue's personal maid Chun Jiao reminded.

She was the dowry of the princess and grew up with the princess. She was a young lady who was well-educated and polite. Since she married into the Marquis's Mansion, her temperament has changed drastically. She is competitive everywhere, her emotions are exposed, and her words are straightforward and vulgar.

I actually threw the prince’s teacup last night, and today I deliberately made it difficult for a concubine who would definitely get started.

Wen'er and Li'er were sent by Madam Zhang to serve Liuli. They were repeatedly reminded to protect this new master, but they didn't expect that just a tea tribute would cause so much difficulty.

The princesses have long heard of the temperament of the princesses, but one of them was originally serving the eldest lady and the other served the wife. They did not have a positive contact with the princesses. When they saw him today, they understood.

The princess is the master, so they naturally cannot say anything. They will inform the wife after the end and let the wife deal with it.

"Take it." Jiang Mingxue showed off her pleasure. Under Chunjiao's reminder, she thought of the prince's cold eyes and drank this cup of tea in disgust.

The heat from the tea had long dissipated, and Liuli's hands were already burned without any sense, red and swollen.

She was helped out by Wen'er and Li'er, and the eyes behind her were like shadows. The moisture in her eyes became soaked, and she was swallowed by herself.

"Arrang her to Yiyuan." Jiang Mingxue ordered.

Chunjiao was stunned for a moment and hesitated, "Master, my aunt's residence has been cleaned up."

"Where?" she asked with a squint as she drank tea.

"Qingqiu Pavilion."

Chunjiao said, and quickly knelt down.

Jiang Mingxue's hands holding the teacup tightened and slowly placed it on the table.

His eyes moved towards the door, like frost and ice, and his smile could not reach his eyes.

Qingqiu Pavilion is the best one in the yard where the prince's concubine lives. It is warm in winter and cool in summer, with gorgeous decorations and close to the main courtyard. It has osmanthus trees and a small fish pond.

Before the young lady got married, she often liked to go there.

A concubine is worthy.

The special princess in this yard knows, and Liuli also knows it.

After returning to Qingqiu Pavilion, Wen'er found ointment to wipe her. Li'er sent someone to spread the news to her wife and ordered the kitchen to make some food.

In fact, the tribute tea should not be now, but the prince passed the message and tribute tea in advance.

"Hiss-" Liuli's tears slid down her fair cheeks, silently.

Wen'er felt the wetness on the back of her hands, and looked at Li'er's eyes, and saw each other's meaning.

They knew Liuli, and it was unexpected that she was going to marry the prince to be her concubine.

Liuli is born beautiful, has a gentle temperament, is meticulous in doing things, and has almost never made any mistakes in serving others. She is peaceful and diligent.

Although he is a maid, he is rarely punished. Even if he is punished, he is still harmless and not painful. He receives more rewards and praises, and lives a very comfortable life.

Last time they met, they heard her say they wanted to save money to redeem themselves.

Things in the world are unpredictable.

Now that she has become an aunt, she has been invincible as soon as she enters the door. Her skin is delicate, and these traces look scary. She has to serve the prince tonight, and I don’t know what to do.

"Auntie, this ointment is very effective, and I'm afraid there will be no trace at night. In this backyard, the prince's favor is the most important thing." Wen'er said.

Liuli jade fingers wiped away the tears, "I have lost my composure." She smiled softly.

"The princess is not worthy of his priest. If we can avoid it in the future, we can avoid it." Wen'er sighed.

Li'er didn't agree with her words, but she didn't say anything now.

"Your identity is different now. You are the master and we are servants. My aunt can't be like before." Li'er poured a cup of warm water to moisten her throat.

"Yeah." Liuli responded softly, "I'm a little tired, you guys go down."

"yes."

When she was left in the room, Liuli stared at her swollen knees and palms, and smiled in an unknown way.

She slowly raised her head, staggered to her desk, spread out the letter paper, grindled the pen.

She lowered her eyes, her eyes were red, and she was focused and serious.

Mrs. Hou learned from Madam Zhang's power and was troubled by the headache. It happened that two naughty boys were squatting outside and listening to the corner of the wall, and they also learned about this.

"Go and send her Yuze ointment, poor child." Mrs. Hou said again, "Take the pieces of cloth in my warehouse together."

"Mom, the princess is so fierce." Rong Jue held his younger brother's hand and pressed his chin against the table.

"What a princess? That's your sister-in-law." Mrs. Hou gently tapped his forehead.

Although she doesn't like the princess, she doesn't want to see her younger sons being irregular and too biased.

There must be a difference between a concubine and a princess.

Mrs. Hou did not realize that her bias had long been revealed. Otherwise, wouldn’t it meant that the princess had done something wrong?

Rong Yu opened his big eyes, and his voice was still soft and soft.

"Mom, does Liuli really want to marry his elder brother?" He was shorter than Rong Jue, stood behind Rong Jue, and half of his face showed up.

"This is a gift, it doesn't matter whether she wants it or not." Mrs. Hou said earnestly.

The children she gave birth to were premature, so she would not tell any lies to deal with them.

She thought that marrying the prince was Liuli's best choice at present. After all, Liuli also had a younger brother, and there was another brother in prison.

The Marquis' Mansion can protect her, otherwise, according to Liuli's beauty, it would not be a good thing outside, and there would be much more trouble.

"Then can my brother and I still play with her?" Rong Jue asked.

"Aren't you afraid that your sister-in-law will be angry?" Mrs. Hou pinched his face.

"What does she have to do with me when she is angry? I don't like her, and my elder brother doesn't like her either. She is not happy in the mansion. The emperor gave her a choice, but she doesn't want to make trouble for herself. She is not my fault, but Liuli's pitifulness was done by her. She has many people to support her. Liuli only has a carrot-headed brother, and I am her former master, so of course she has to support her." The words of children are intuitive and simple.

Mrs. Hou didn't say anything after all, and hugged her two sons in her arms, laughing helplessly.

She didn't understand either. The princess clearly had a better way, but she insisted on guarding the position of the princess and endured her husband's indifference. What did she mean?

Could it be that he was deeply in love with her fierce son?

Shiqi also learned about this from Shi Er.

"It's true that the prince's concubine. The prince just told her last night that she was going to make trouble. Why is she facing the prince? That aunt is still from the wife's side, she is just causing trouble for herself." Shi Er complained helplessly.

"Auntie, are you embarrassed by the prince's concubine?" Shi Qi's hand stayed at the sachet on her body.

"Yes, my knees and hands were swollen. My wife gave her a lot of things to comfort her." Shi Er said.

"I understand, you go back, I will tell the prince." Shi Qi's face turned cold.

"Okay." Shi Er thought it was strange, but he didn't think much. He just muttered a few words, and Shi Qi became more and more like the prince.

Shi Qi stood outside the door, and the prince inside the door was talking to the court officials.

He looked at the sky, and the dark clouds slowly gathered. He was afraid that it would rain for a while. The prince didn't like it, and his temper would be worse every time it rained.

Some people need to solve this bad temper first.

The princess doesn't like to live a good life, so he will naturally follow the servants.

"Did you change the sachet you originally used?" Rong Chu was very impressed by the sachet he wore and embroidered it very well. Shi Qi never wore these, but later she wore them for the first time. I heard that it was embroidered by his sweetheart.

"I lied to my master. I did have that sweetheart, but I had already betrothed to others. I missed it. Last year, she was selling sachets. When I met again, I thought about it, so I bought one and treated it as her. I heard that she was pregnant yesterday, and thought that it was time to let go of this obsession, so I let it go." Shi Qi's voice was very low, and the melancholy dissipated with his chuck.

Rong Chu laughed, but he didn't know that he was infatuated.

"Is Shi Er here?" he asked.

"That's right, he came to pass the message. Today, the aunt was offering tea. The princess gave him a warning. He heard that the aunt was still lying on the bed, probably because she was seriously injured." Shi Qi exaggerated his words without changing his face.

"She asked her to kneel?" Rong Chu frowned.

"Well, my knees and palms are red and swollen." Shi Qi said again, "Maybe it was because the aunt was rude that the princess taught the rules."

"She has always been like this." Although Rong Chu had a expressionless face, it made people feel a little ridiculous.

He pulled out a Buddhist scripture with a thick palm from the bookshelf behind him, "Take it to the princess. It was hot, so let her copy and reduce her anger. Go to Curry to find some jewelry and send it to her aunt."

"yes."

Shi Qi closed the door with the Buddhist scriptures, and the servant wanted to do it for him but he refused.

He would give this thing in person.

"Master, Shi Qi is here by the prince's side." Chunjiao showed worries.

"Please come in." Jiang Mingxue remained indifferent.
