Chapter 37: Punishment

In the evening, Zi Ning washed his clothes and brought a basin to prepare to enter the house, today Aunt Tao sent less work, and finally could have a hot meal.

But Ziyan is still immersed in hard washing, and there is a stack of clothes beside him. Zi Ning was called by the five princes, and the palace maids all knew about it, and they all said that she wanted the sparrow to become a phoenix, and even her aunt treated her differently, and the work became easier, and the clothes that she should have washed came here by herself.

She shouted at Zi Ning, "Remember to leave some food for me!" ”

Zi Ning glanced at Zi Yan, she wanted to wait for her to eat together, but she saw a pile of clothes beside her, so she had to go first, she didn't eat for a day and was almost hungry and fainted": En! Leave you a piece of meat. ”

When Ziyan heard this, he nodded contentedly.

Today's well water is even more bitterly cold, Zi Ning hugged his hands, held his hands tightly in his arms, for a long time, he was a little conscious, the place where his fingers were ulcerated had scabbed, from the beginning of the itching to the current faint pain, these hands were ugly, and the green jade fingers had long been gone.

Several palace maids each brought their own meals, sat around the table and ate them. In fact, if it weren't for the cold food, the food in the Huanyi Bureau was good, there were vegetables and meat, although it could not be compared with other places, but at least it was a hundred times better than in prison, after all, it was in the palace, except for more rules and tiring work, these foods would not be deducted.

Sure enough, it was full of people who didn't know that they were hungry, those fatty braised pork, Zi Ning would not have touched it before, at this time, the big meat and oil were mixed with rice, with pickled bamboo shoots, and I took a mouthful, and I instantly felt that my body had strength. It's so cold outside now, if you don't eat more, so that the thin body is not cold, no matter how much clothes you wrap, it's useless, and when she is still growing up, she eats too much, and people can smoke faster, lest others keep calling her a little girl.

She thought about it, she has to grow up quickly, and she will be an old man in this palace at that time, and she doesn't have to be bullied all the time. If you are lucky, you can meet the holy forgiveness, and then you can be released from the palace to find a piece of land for your mother so that she can rest in peace.

The palace maids pulled a bowl of rice very quickly, and after a while, the vegetable pot bottomed out, and someone teased: "How can Miss Qianjin get used to eating these things?" ”

Zining could hear it clearly, it was obviously aimed at her. ": Here are all palace maids from the Huanyi Bureau, but there is no young lady."

"Yo, let someone do the laundry for you, isn't it Miss?"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"Do you think that you want to fly on the branch as a phoenix with a fox face, my aunt is jealous of you, and she protects you everywhere, I can't stand it, I heard that the girl in Aunt Chun's yard was beaten, I'm afraid it's also burdened by you, the Ziyan in our yard entered the palace with you, and you are still washing clothes outside, but you are eating here with peace of mind."

Ziqing can't listen anymore": Ziqing, what nonsense are you talking about! ”

"What are you talking about, Wen'er was beaten!" Zi Ning was shocked, Aunt Chun didn't let her go after she was taken away, with Aunt Chun's temperament, she would be beaten very lightly.

"Exactly, the people are still protecting you like this, and you get some favors and just leave it alone?" Ziqing just can't get used to seeing Zining's appearance, her eyes are like seductive goblins, and she doesn't know what blessings she has accumulated in her previous life, so that she can meet the five princes, for them, this life is a luxury.

Zi Ning didn't care what Zi Jing said, when she heard that Wen'er was beaten, she was so anxious that she hurriedly went out and ran to the needlework room.

The doorkeeper of the needlework room was another little eunuch, curled up at the door waiting for the shift to eat.

"Excuse me, I want to go in and find someone." When Zining arrived at the door, he was stopped.

"Which room is the maid?"

"Pulp washroom, Aunt Tao's men."

The little eunuch looked at it for a while, and the palace maid in front of him looked young, and she was also well-behaved and skillful, and she was born with a good appearance, "Which palace maid are you looking for?" ”

"Wen'er."

As soon as the little eunuch heard that it was Wen'er, he shook his head, no one knows about her beating in the courtyard today, Aunt Chun can't afford to provoke him": No, this Wen'er has offended my aunt, if I let you in again, I will also be implicated. ”

Zining is anxious": I just went to take a look, and I came out after a look, and I won't bother my father-in-law. "Wen'er was punished because of her, how can she feel at ease.

Zi Ning begged for pity, and even the little eunuch couldn't care about it": Don't be like this, I have no choice but to do it, if I let you in, it will be me who will be punished. Now he just wants Xiao Linzi to change shifts early, and he is helpless in the face of the pleading of the little palace maid.

"I promise to come out in half an hour, and I won't trouble you."

In the face of Zining's pleading and the big blinking eyes, the little eunuch finally relented: "Two quarters of an hour at most, otherwise I will go in and catch you out." ”

"Well, Grandpa Xie." After Zi Ning finished speaking, he ran towards Wen'er's house.

There was Wen'er alone in a room, and no one took care of it, it would be the time to eat, everyone rushed to eat, leaving only a pair of dishes and chopsticks next to the bed, and the new cloth on her back also oozed a little blood, and it seemed that she was beaten lightly.

"Wen'er......" Zi Ning called in a choked voice.

Wen'er buried her head, heard the sound, raised her head, twisted her body slightly, and pulled the wound, making her snort in pain.

"It's all my fault, how did I beat you like this......" Zining picked up the bowl quickly, and fed it in small bites, Wen'er's mouth moved hard.

"I'm also a person who has eaten a board, how can I enter the palace without a board." Wen'er said it easily, and Zining cried when she heard it.

"Aunt Chun is too ruthless, you have to be very careful in this hospital in the future, this injury will not heal for a while, tomorrow I will find a way to help you get some medicine, so it can be of some use." The day before yesterday, she was still worried about how to save her mother, but it was only two days, she and her mother were separated from yin and yang, and the lives of her good sisters were also in danger, so it was not a way to go on like this.

"No, I can survive, as long as you are taken away by Grandpa Wei, it is good that you can come back safely." Wen'er said with difficulty, but she couldn't help but gasp after speaking.

"Don't you know who I've seen today?" Zining thought of this, and suddenly felt that there was still hope for Wen'er.

"Who?"

"What about the fifth prince, he also promised my mother's clothes and graves, I don't have to be sneaky anymore to pay tribute to my mother, if I can't get medicine tomorrow, it's really not good, I'll beg him to go."

"Really? I said Zining, you are lucky, if the prince takes a fancy to you, then ......"

"What nonsense are you talking about, that's the grace of the Queen's mother. Without further ado, it's getting late, I'll come back tomorrow. After feeding Wen'er and eating, Zi Ning got up to say goodbye.

"Aunt Ruochun won't let you in tomorrow, so it's okay, and you don't have to provoke her again."

"If I really can't come in, I'll give it to you." Then I'll go first. ”

"Well, let's go, it's not early."

Zining reluctantly went out, Wen'er lay on the bed and remembered the events of the past two days, and she didn't know when it was a head.
