The maids in the house hurriedly knelt down, Lin Qixu only lowered his head and fiddled with the tea lid, his face pretended to be gloomy, thinking to himself, it was time to see Yan Zhu's choice. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Yan Zhuguo lived up to expectations, squeezed the tears rolling around his eyes, remembered Lin Qixu's indifferent eyes and the recent worship of high and low, and forced himself to cry yet, his voice was a little trembling and a little uneasy, and he said sadly: "Back to the prince, the master has returned to the Agarwood Pavilion since the main courtyard, and there are slaves and maids who serve him wholeheartedly in his daily life, and he is still passable." The gossip outside is not heard by the master, and at most the slaves and maids are a little idle, and it doesn't hurt to be idle. It's just that this meal, the prince also saw it. The master is still weak and weak, depressed, and needs to take good repairs. ”

What's more, there are no children.

Yan Zhu was very calculating, and did not draw a snake to add to it, but only said it sadly and earnestly, and then did not speak. The middle half of the word does not mention the physical exertion caused by copying scriptures, and the double blow of body and mind caused by the loss of children.

Lin Qixu finished tasting a sip of warm tea, his eyes fell on the kang screen embroidered with pomegranate flowers to imply many sons and blessings, and his heart spread to pieces, and the continuous pain seemed to tear the internal organs. He only bowed his head and said: "The prince doesn't have to worry, the princess said that the concubine is recovering very well, and the decoction is also sent by the princess every day, and the diet may be a little insufficient, but the concubine's appetite is light, and she can't eat it if it's too rich and greasy." She raised her hand and stroked it between her cheeks, squeezing out a little smile, "It may look thin, but who gets fat when they are sick." ”

The tea cup rested lightly on the hard Huanghuali tabletop, making a crisp and piercing sound. The regent listened to these two paragraphs, and the sadness came from the confession, and his face was really good, and he couldn't see where to go, but he was deep in thought, and he was used to being expressionless.

Accompanied by a loud noise in the courtyard, there was a muffled sound from time to time. Lin Qixu estimated which unlucky ghost was walking under his feet, and he fell on this snowy and slippery road.

Lunch was placed on the table in an orderly manner, and the maids went in and out, holding a set of tableware. Yan Xu took Qing Hao and a trembling servant woman to step forward and replied: "There are two little maids outside, who are doing chores for Aunt Du under the stove, kneeling under the porch and listening to the news. She got up casually and motioned for Aunt Du to kneel.

"The slave has seen the prince." Today's meal of Agarwood Pavilion stunned the dog eyes of the minions in the dining room, and Miss Yan Xu coldly asked who was preparing the meal of Agarwood Pavilion, and the prince wanted to ask. Because the movement was too big, Wan Steward and the little steward on the stove gathered one after another, wanting to hear some news, Yan Xu said roughly, and led Aunt Du and the two maids to hurry away.

Lin Qixu glanced at Aunt Du casually, only to see that the tip of her nose was sweating, she kept rubbing her palms, her expression was depressed, and her face was sad, so she knew that she was not fake. The regent didn't pay attention to a minion, and when he was to be presented with a silver chopstick, he said lightly: "You can use it well, don't lose your own body." ”

"Lord Xie cares." Lin Qixu is as good as a stream.

Yan Zhu diligently prepared vegetables for her, because she was afraid of Lin Qi's long-term hungry stomach, she didn't eat some big fish and meat, only scooped nearly half a cup of fritillaria, picked up refreshing stir-fried vegetables, and happily had a lunch.

The regent saw that she was not in a hurry, but he looked very sweet, and deliberately slowed down, and from time to time looked at Aunt Du, who was kneeling by the curtain and shivering, at this time, Pei Jiu, who was on duty in the outer room, came in and said: "Lord Qiqi, the steward of the dining room is waiting under the porch, and he is coming to ask for sin." ”

"Please?" The regent snorted lightly and raised his voice, "Come in." ”

Lin Qixu was already full of seven points, so he also put down the dishes and chopsticks, and looked at everything sideways.

Wan Guan acted very well, his eyebrows and eyes drooped to the ground, and he looked around without Aunt Du entering the house, nervous, knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice: "The slave is not effective, the service is not thorough, and the subordinates are not restrained, so that there is a mistake in the meal of the Agarwood Pavilion, and I have come to ask for guilt." ”

Only then did he raise his head, glared at Aunt Du, who was shrunk aside as a quail, and scolded: "I haven't come here to ask for guilt." ”

Then there was no more talk.

Lin Qixu smiled shallowly, and said secretly, this ten thousand stewards are eighty percent of the princess's manpower, and he speaks so well. Neither blame each other, nor shout injustice and beg for mercy, but open your mouth to ask for guilt and eliminate the anger of the prince first.

"Yan Xu." The Lord Regent gestured to the food box that was placed in the distance.

Yan Xu hurriedly went to fetch it, threw it heavily in front of Wan Guan and Aunt Du, and said, "Don't you open it to see, what kind of dirty things did you take, Lin Ji's routine dishes are like this?" ”

Aunt Du's eyes were purring, showing a reasonable smile, and she quibbled: "The girl doesn't know, where is the right place for women who have a miscarriage to eat those who have too much oil and water, and the porridge with side dishes is very nourishing to the stomach." She saw that the prince's face was flat, and she dared to continue to say: "Naturally, if you want to add vegetables, the old slave is not an unreasonable person, but the prince doesn't know that the girls of the Agarwood Pavilion are fierce, with horizontal eyebrows and vertical eyes, and there is no ...... for half a courtesy."

Steward Wan has not been on an errand in the kitchen recently, and he was dumbfounded by the stupidity of this Aunt Du, and he looked at him again and again. The maids of Agarwood Pavilion were so angry that their faces turned green, and Qing Hao was dragged by Pei Jiu before she stood behind in a reluctant voice.

In the face of such a Diao slave who refers to the deer as a horse and is full of nonsense, the regent is too lazy to talk in vain, and he puts a foot on the heart of Aunt Du lightly, and Aunt Du's body loses balance, and her fat body rolls twice on the carpet, and she slams heavily on the cabinet of the dark eight immortals carved by red sandalwood, making an "ouch" sound.

"There is no disrespect, strong words, and slander others. Forty rods, and expelled him from the king's house. The regent said in disgust.

Everyone was frightened by a sudden kick, and before Aunt Du could come to her senses, an obedient slave came in the outer room and dragged her away. The prince has never done it himself, and now everything is abnormal... Cold sweat was dripping from his forehead, and his knees became more and more straight.

"Lin Ji's health is not yet well, but she has been neglected by your group of Diao slaves for a few days, and the decoction has been drunk in vain." The regent glanced at Lin Qixu, who was as quiet as a virgin, and remembered that she had no children and had been bullied by a group of minions for many days, so he was very lenient and gentle, and said softly: "How do you think it is good to punish her?" ”

Lin Qixu felt bitter in his heart, Lord Wang, you are really going to dig a pit for me.

There was still a look of sincerity and fear on his face, and he said softly: "Everything has its own prince, and the concubine is very relieved." However, this steward looks very steady and capable, and there must be some difficulties, so the prince might as well listen to it. ”

"Is there one?" The regent glanced at the steward.

Wan Guan Shi really called this Lin Ji a grateful Dade in his heart, and he kowtowed busily, his tone was as loyal and steady as possible, and said: "Back to the prince, the minions dare not quibble about their dereliction of duty." However, ten days ago, the housekeeper who was in charge of sprinkling and cleaning in the inner courtyard accidentally broke his leg, and because the snow was extremely deep and he needed someone to command and manage, the slave was transferred by Concubine Han Shu to take care of the matter. For a while, it is inevitable that it will not be able to do both. I also hope that the prince will forgive. ”

He confessed his mistake to Lin Qixu with great interest: "If there is any neglect in the dining room recently, please punish Lin Ji." ”

Lin Qixu was numb by the regent's gaze, so he naturally couldn't be silent, and said gently: "As the year approaches, there will inevitably be a shortage of manpower, so it is understandable." Wan Guan must have been doing things for many years, and it is good for the prince to leave some decency. ”

The regent didn't say anything, but said, "You said that the Han family transferred you to the inner courtyard to sweep?" ”

"Exactly. The princess raised the fetus with peace of mind, and all the things in the inner court, the slaves all returned to Concubine Han Shu. ”

The housekeeper in the inner courtyard broke his leg, and he actually transferred the kitchen manager to replace him, isn't there a deputy manager to replace him? For ten days, I couldn't find a better man, which is a joke. The kitchen is already full of people, and there are two pregnant concubines, which should be the top priority, and everyone should be vigilant. Today, it's just that Agarwood Pavilion has received some cold reception, and if you change your mind, maybe you Ji is short of two catties.

The regent figured out this, lost his original faint smile, thought for a moment, and said: "You don't have to worry about the sprinkling and cleaning of the inner courtyard, so you can take care of the kitchen, the princess and You Ji are pregnant at the same time, so you must be cautious." He asked again: "This Aunt Du was also on the stove originally?" ”

After the steward should go down, his face was a little cramped, and he said: "I was originally the lady in charge of the fire in the kitchen, but somehow, I became the little steward on the stove......"

What else does the regent not understand. It is nothing more than Concubine Han Shu who first transferred the tiger away from the mountain, took away the chief steward, and acted recklessly, secretly promoted people, and treated the Lin family harshly. I don't know where the Lin family has been in the mansion for only a few months, and where it has provoked the eyes of the Han family.

"In the future, the meal of this Agarwood Pavilion will come according to the concubine's portion." Seeing that Lin Qixu was not arrogant or impatient, the regent felt a little more comfortable, and said to Wan Guan, "As for you, remember this time." If there is a next time, pack up and get out of the palace. ”

After the steward escaped the catastrophe, he hurriedly showed his loyalty, and after leaving the inner room respectfully, he hurriedly went back to the dining room to clean up some unruly things.
