Chapter 51: Don't Look Down on Yourself
Cai Qing tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that the young lady was drunk and couldn't stand when she got into the carriage, and she fell down all of a sudden." King Su kindly came over to help Miss, and Miss vomited everything she ate onto King Su's body at once. ”
Cai Qing said it lightly and happily, but Gu Zhirong was terrified when she heard it. As soon as Cai Qing finished speaking, she stared at Cai Qing with unbelievable apricot eyes, and her eyes didn't move: "Cai Qing, don't scare me, what did you say...... But really?"
Cai Qing pouted: "How can this matter be fake, can the slave maid make fun of the young lady at this critical time?"
Gu Zhirong glared at Cai Qing for a long time, and fell on the couch with a "bang".
Cai Qing was startled, her own young lady was frightened and fainted, she hurriedly took three steps and made two steps, leaned over to investigate, and said anxiously: "Miss, don't scare me, the slave maid hasn't finished speaking, although the young lady has made King Su dirty, but King Su is a good person, with a very good temper, and he didn't blame Miss for a word, and said to the old lady that it was his own responsibility, and he caused Miss to get drunk." ”
Gu Zhirong immediately straightened up again with a "rub" sound, wiping the cold sweat on his forehead: "Cai Qing, can you finish talking in the future, I was scared to death by you." ”
Cai Qing looked blankly at her young lady who was "resurrected" again, and finally, she flattened her mouth, stomped her feet and said: "Miss is so bad, she will take the slave and maid again!"
"If I don't do this, how can I get your words out?" Gu Zhirong grinned, and then, as if thinking of something, slowly smiled, sat up straight, leaned on the pillow, and the fresh fingers like the bamboo shoots that had been peeled off knocked again and again, and said slowly, "So, the old lady listened to King Su's idea?"
Cai Qing nodded: "Yes, how can the old lady not listen to King Su's words." Miss, you see, now that we are in this room in good manner, and no one has come to investigate what happened yesterday, it is enough to prove the old lady's attitude. ”
Cai Qing said this with a hint of pride. She was secretly glad that King Su was present yesterday, if not, even if they hired a carriage to come back, they would be counted out for hours, and they would get carried away and so on, and then they didn't know what to blame.
As for the lazy coachman Chen Laosi, Cai Qing was already very sure that he was colluding with the second and fourth misses. As for what benefits they gave him in private, so that he could risk his life to murder his own young lady, she didn't know. But money can make ghosts grind, like Chen Laosi, who has four walls and can't get together with his wife in his life, I'm afraid that he can be bought for only one or two hundred silver. Even if the matter fails, what if the old lady is kicked out of the house, as long as you knock out a sum of money from the second and fourth young ladies, it is better than driving a car in the wind and rain every day to make a living.
Therefore, in the eyes of Cai Qing, as a girl with no identity and no status in the mansion, it would be good if her own young lady could be next to someone she could rely on, keep her safe and secure, and not be framed by the people in the mansion.
Of course, if her own young lady can be favored by King Su and climb the rich tree of King Su, then she will be able to survive as a girl.
As long as their masters marry well, girls like them who serve by their masters' side can have a better way out, which is a truth that all slaves are well aware of.
Gu Zhirong only looked at the expression on Cai Qing's face, she knew what this little girl was thinking, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, she was a "rich and unyielding" person, but she didn't expect to come here and be regarded as the kind of person who clings to the powerful. Presumably not long after, there was another scandal about her and King Su: "The five girls of the Gu family pretended to be drunk late at night, and their intention to cling to the powerful was obvious. ”
Moreover, this King Su is a public lover, and now that the two of them have made such a big fuss, from now on, what do the people in the imperial capital think of her? Don't say far away, just say close, what do the second and fourth ladies in the house think of her, I'm afraid that there are more opportunities for her to wear small shoes, right?
Gu Zhirong stroked his forehead with a headache, it seems that in this situation, he can only take it step by step, and wherever he goes. Fortunately, she still clearly remembers that when she was forced to drink yesterday, the second miss agreed to her matter, and from then on, she was free to enter and leave the house, enjoying the same treatment as the second and fourth misses, just report it, so first, this chance of escape is much greater.
That's good news out of all the bad news, right?
Seeing Cai Qing still looking at her and smiling, she couldn't help but sigh: "Cai Qing, we should be a little self-aware, right......? We can't fight him for eight lifetimes, okay?"
Cai Qing ignored her words, and said with a smile: "Miss, if it weren't for yesterday's incident, the slave maid would have the same opinion as Miss, and they all thought that King Su was a person who was high above and had empty eyes, but just last night, Miss was drunk on him and vomited on him, but instead of saying anything, he asked his subordinates to bring blankets to cover Miss, for fear that the night would be heavy and cause Miss to catch a cold." When I sent the young lady back to the house, when I saw the old lady, I also told the old lady to take good care of the young lady, and to boil some sobering soup for the young lady to drink, so as not to get cold and get sick. The slave maid looked at it and felt that King Su was really a gentle and considerate person, and he was good to the young lady, much better than those martial artists who fought on the battlefield. ”
Speaking of this, Cai Qing looked at Gu Zhirong, with a smile at the corner of her eyes and eyebrows.
Although beauties love heroes, but for the people who accompany them for a lifetime, which delicate girl doesn't want the other party to be a gentle and considerate person?
Gu Zhirong was stunned for a moment, gentle and considerate...... If such an adjective were to be used to describe a person, in her world, there would be no one else.
And this Su Wang ......
Cai Qing thought for a while and said: "Miss, let's think about it again, Miss dropped a love letter at the banquet in the princess's mansion, this matter is impossible not to know with the ability of King Su, right?
Gu Zhirong glanced at Cai Qing: "You dead girl, Sichun, when you see someone who is good to you, why did you think of that aspect? Maybe that King Su took advantage of me a little in order to maintain his image of being close to the people, and showed favor to me, but I am afraid that this is the purpose." If you want him to be a proton, you must be careful everywhere in Kyoto, but whatever is good for his image, he just does it, so why not do it?"
Thinking like this, Gu Zhirong snorted: "Since he has a plan, then he uses me, and I am willing to be used by him, so that I can use his power to protect my thoughtfulness in the mansion, such a win-win result, why am I not happy?
Cai Qing didn't expect her own young lady to say this, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that there was some truth, and she couldn't help but be annoyed: "It turns out that King Su is such a person, and the slave is really blind." ”
Gu Zhirong shook his head slightly: "It's not a matter of vision, as long as we remember our own identity, keep a sense of self-knowledge, don't look down on others, and don't look down on ourselves, no matter how many conspiracy traps it has, we won't be fooled." ”
Cai Qing looked at Gu Zhirong with admiration and nodded vigorously: "Miss, the slave remembers." ”
She felt that her own young lady was really thoughtful, if she really mistakenly thought that King Su had a good impression of her own young lady, but in fact it was not like this, then she would really be laughed at by the world.
