Chapter 148: Promotion
"Who is responsible for today's fruits, and they are recruited from the truth!" said Gonggong Lian, who was in charge of the lotus garden, with a sharp voice.
The steward maid and a few of her subordinates knelt down, a few maids, you look at me, I look at you, but the steward maid trembled, pointed to the bird's nest and said that it was her.
The bird's nest looked calm, kowtowed and admitted his mistake: "The slave is in charge." ”
Without much explanation.
"Our family is clear. Grandpa Lian squinted his eyes and looked back and forth between the maid and the bird's nest.
The maid quietly relaxed, thinking that she had passed the test, and pushed the pot to the head of the bird's nest to solve this new miscellaneous servant, and her heart was a little happy, but Gonggong Lian's next words undoubtedly threw her from the clouds to the dust: "It should be your duty to be pushed to others to do, since peeling sour oranges is so difficult for you, you don't have to be responsible for the supply of fruits in the future, be a sweeping handyman." ”
She raised her head in horror, what he meant was to demote her from a third-class maid to a miscellaneous servant, and her status and monthly status were lowered, how could she do it!"Grandpa Lian, I was wrong, please give me another chance, I will never do it again in the future!"
She just wanted to concoct the perfume, and no one would find out if she pushed the job to her subordinates once or twice, but she never thought that she would lose her future at one time, which link went wrong, was it a coral snitch?
She glared at the bird's nest, her bloodshot eyes filled with hatred.
Gonggong Lian: "How can I give you a chance?" One second ago, the eldest princess personally gave the sour oranges to the sixth prince, and the next second she watched the sour oranges that were not in good condition come in, and the new ones were taken over from you by our family, you wouldn't say that our family was blind and recognized the wrong person, right?"
The maid's heart was like ashes, and she wished that she would go back in time a few hours ago, and she would not deal with it casually.
Mama lifted the maid out, the other two maids withdrew, and the bird's nest was still in place.
Gonggong Lian asked again: "Do you know why our family left you?"
"Slaves and maids should not overstep their duties. ”
"Should it be punished?"
"When punished, Coral admits punishment. ”
Without a trace of hesitation and hesitation, Gonggong Lian stared at her and laughed for a long time, "Okay, reward you with ten boards, go outside and receive the punishment." ”
"Father-in-law Xie Lian. ”
Bird's nest is as good as flowing, before exiting, Gonggong Lian behind him said: "In the future, you will be responsible for the supply of fruits, and you will make a plate of rabbit sour oranges at the end of the penalty, don't let our family down." ”
Overnight, she swapped identities with the housekeeper.
The bird's nest blessed Grandpa Lian, and there was still no sadness or joy on his face, as if the promotion had nothing to do with her.
……
Pray for the king's house.
The sixth princess, Sun Changxin, sat in the Taishi chair closest to the door in the main hall, looking forward to it, and asked the maid next to her from time to time for the hour, and instructed the kitchen to warm the mutton soup and not let it cool.
The sixth prince trotted in with sour oranges all the way, and the speed was no different from that of the errand boy. Bypassing the shadow wall, he immediately saw the person on the tip of his heart being helped up by the maid, walked to the door to greet him, and accelerated his steps, and came to Sun Changxin in three or two steps, handed the plate in his hand to the maid beside him, waved back the maids who stepped forward to serve him to take off the fox fur, and warmed his hands before helping Sun Changxin to sit on the main seat, disgusted:
"How can you bother waiting for me in the main hall, it's windy here, you're being blown up, what should I do. ”
"If you wait by the princess's side, won't you persuade her to pay attention to her body!"
He turned his head again and told the maids.
"Don't blame them, I asked for it, and if they don't listen to me, they'll beat them. Sun Changxin was wrapped in the big room, looking petite, but her face was pale, a little haggard and weak, she said: "There is floor heating in the hall, I asked them to put a screen before, and then the wind stopped before it was removed." Why did you come back so late, Zhuang Xuan had something important to tell you?"
The sixth prince immediately brought the sour oranges like a treasure, and talked about what happened in the eldest princess's mansion today, "I smell the smell is indeed a little different from the one at home, thinking that you have been very happy recently, so I asked my aunt for their sour oranges, the shape is quite chic, and I will try to see if it is useful when I eat." ”
Changxin nodded shyly, looking at the rabbit petals, and wanted to eat oranges for no reason.
Meddlesome!
The six princes and the maids were pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly sent the peeled oranges, in front of everyone, Changxin's blushing spread to the pinna, and her voice was so low that she couldn't hear clearly: "Don't look at me......"
"Okay, good, don't look at it. ”
Sun Changxin tried to eat a petal, her eyes did not leave the little rabbit, and she unconsciously finished eating an orange.
Didn't throw up.
After dinner, the sixth prince was overjoyed, and hurriedly sent someone to run to Princess Zhuang Xuan's mansion, for the sake of his family's Changxin, he had to ask for a big basket of sour oranges to put at home.
When she received the letter from the Six Princes' Mansion, the eldest princess listened to the report of the chief administrator.
She raised the letter in her hand, "This is the good nephew of the palace, not to mention the sour oranges in the dining room of the palace, and now I have to ask for a big basket of sour oranges." Okay, you don't need to prepare any gifts, it's enough to send two baskets of sour oranges, you can ask the maid who made sour oranges today if there is any way to increase your appetite, write it down and copy a copy for me to see. ”
The manager should be.
Hongzhu drugged the bird's nest, she took care of the steward's maid unpleasantly, and now she has become a handyman like them, and she thinks she is a foolish bird's nest because of the blessing of misfortune, like eating a sour orange: "Coral really has yours, suddenly from a handyman to a few maids under his hands, how do you feel? For the sake of me giving you medicine, take care of me more in the future." ”
"Keep doing your job well, and sooner or later it will pay off. Bird's Nest said.
Hongzhu pouted.
Mama knocked on the door and asked if Coral was there, Bird's Nest hurriedly responded loudly, and Mama asked her to come out quickly and go with her to Grandpa Lian.
"What's the matter with Grandpa Lian looking for you?"
"I don't know. ”
The bird's nest is not clear on the mouth, but I probably understand in my heart that it may be that the plate of sour oranges has entered the eyes of the nobles.
Opportunities come so quickly, it's good luck, or it can be a trap.
Don't be in a hurry.
Gonggong Lian put his hands behind his back, there was a pen and paper in front of the table, and Bird's Nest glanced at it and saw that there seemed to be a figure behind the screen in front of him, and there was a shadow of a shadow.
"You're here, do you know what our family is looking for you?" Grandpa Lian turned around, and the bird's nest stood with his eyes down.
"The slave is stupid, please advise my father-in-law. ”
Gonggong Lian: "The sour orange rabbit in the Zhengwei Hall, what did you add to it to make its fragrance longer and make people appetize?"
Bird's Nest realized that her opportunity had come, she was not satisfied with peeling sour oranges, this was her first step and not the final end, listening to the meaning of Liangonggong's words, it should be smelled by people with a loss of appetite to attract the attention of nobles.
The thought in her mind only circled a few times in the blink of an eye, and she replied: "Before the slave maid entered the house, she followed the cook Mochizuki since she was a child, she not only has excellent cooking skills, but also proficient in making fragrant dew, so the slave maid also learned two or three furs, and the family of the anorexic guest invited the cook Mochizuki to the door, and she dripped the prepared sour orange dew when cooking, which made him appetizing." When the slave maid handled the sour orange, she thought that it was placed in the Zhengwei Hall, and it was very important for the eldest princess to relax and eat, so she didn't dare to add anything else to the sour orange without permission, but she baked its peel over low heat to remove the greenness and make it more fruity. ”
The man behind the screen moved.
Gonggong Lian never expected that this inconspicuous little handyman would make fragrant dew, glanced behind the screen, and asked: "Can you make fragrant dew?
