Chapter XII
Xie Yiying sat upright, looked at her with a serious and sincere face, and motioned for her to continue.
"If you are the only one in the palace to serve the prince, it will not be appropriate."
Yes, yes, yes, right, go ahead!
"This is just our own family talking here, and someone else will definitely not be kind enough to tell you."
I knew that there would be no good words after these words came out, aunt, don't let me down, be brave and bold to say what you think in your heart!
"I also feel sorry for you, and I want to arrange for you to find someone to come into the house to help you."
That's a bit euphemistic, and I thought I could just ask my cousin to help me.
Xie Yiying felt that this topic would be a bit obscene if she talked about it any further, so she put on a tactful and kind smile: "Your Highness and I both think it's quite good to be like this at the moment." ”
Very tactfully refused, Mrs. Sun didn't expect her to be so ignorant, this is the kindness of the elders, how dare you refuse?
"Niece and nephew, not an aunt said that you, a wife is the most jealous and jealous, this kind of thing should not wait for your own man to mention, you should arrange everything neatly, the man is satisfied, and you have also won a virtuous reputation, I am afraid that you are young and don't understand the power of this, so I will mention you a few words, and others will want to see your jokes!"
Xie Yiying was about to speak, a few girls just came in with a plate, Xie Yiying shut up and hummed, and then waited for the plate to be put down and started to eat, the best Jiangnan glutinous rice, made into a crimson plum blossom shape, bite it lightly, glutinous and soft mixed with fine and uniform particles, the rice fragrance oozes bean fragrance and osmanthus fragrance, sweet but not greasy, full of autumn breath. Ahh
After eating a piece of osmanthus cake, Xie Yiying finally took the leisure to reply to people: "These things, even if the palace does not speak, it is also up to His Highness to decide, where can I arrange it." ”
The words are still very tactful, but everyone is not stupid, and the attitude of refusing twice in a row is obvious.
Mrs. Sun slapped the table: "Thank you!" ”
Sun Wan'er hurriedly grabbed her hand: "Mother! She is much more sensible than her mother, and knows that with Xie Yiying's current identity, it is just a trivial matter to deal with them, if she really shows face, not to mention that she can prevent herself from entering the palace, it is easy to even punish them. Xie Yiying just doesn't do it, it's not that she can't do it, although her mother still has a little affection from her elders in front of her, but she must not think that she can do whatever she wants by relying on her old feelings.
Mrs. Sun looked at her daughter's eyes, and she also understood that calling the imperial concubine's name like this was too much, but she couldn't let go of her apology, so she just snorted coldly and stopped talking.
Xie Yiying was not angry, she hadn't established a clear concept of hierarchy, she just pinched a piece of lotus cake, and wondered where this aunt came from with such a big face while eating.
After such an unpleasant scene, Sun Wan'er still changed the topic and chatted with a smile, the wind and rain were gusting outside, and Xie Yiying was embarrassed to open her mouth to drive them away, so she had to sit there and chat with them.
It wasn't until it was lunch time that the mother and daughter had no intention of leaving, and Xie Yiying reflected what they wanted to do.
…… Let me fail you, Zhou Jin won't come back for dinner at noon today.
He rarely goes home at noon, so when he comes back for dinner occasionally, he will send someone back in advance.
Thinking of this, I looked at Sun Wan'er a few more times, only to realize that it was really subtle. Not to mention the rouge gouache on the face, the hairstyle comb is twisted and twisted, the ears hang down with fine hairpins, and there are two or three jade hairpins carved into the shape of flowers on the head, which match the apricot eyes and peach cheeks, which is really moving.
Xie Yiying scratched her head, thinking that she really failed you.
"As soon as we speak, it's time for my aunt and cousin to stay and finish their meal before leaving."
Mrs. Sun looked out of the door with some dissatisfaction, and said unhurriedly: "It's only this hour, and I'm not in a hurry to eat, it's like we're here to have a meal, and when the four princes come back, let's eat together, it's all our own family." ”
How can you take Joe so much?
Xie Yiying quietly touched his belly screaming for lunch, it was the time to grow his body, and a few pieces of pastry could not satisfy it at all, and the supplement of foreign substances should keep up with the secretion of growth hormone.
"He's not coming back to eat."
"What?!"
"Your Highness rarely comes back for lunch, if your aunt is for Your Highness, it just so happens that the rain will stop at this moment, why don't I send my aunt back."
"What is this talking about, my mother just didn't expect my cousin and cousin-in-law to eat together. This time I came to accompany my cousin, so it's more convenient for us to eat together. ”
Xie Yiying looked at Sun Wan'er's smiling face and felt that this girl was also a little scary.
At this point, it is natural to keep people to eat, usually Zhou Jin is only four dishes and one soup when he is there, but now that the guests are here, think about it and ask them to add two more dishes.
Bisi, Cuizhi and the other two maids have all the dishes, and Xie Yiying smiled politely: "It's all my own family, so I won't say anything, my aunt please." ”
The mother and daughter looked at the dishes on the table and frowned. Although the dishes look exquisite, but there are only a few dishes, and I usually have more than a dozen dishes to eat at home, Mrs. Sun snorted coldly: "My niece didn't treat us as outsiders." ”
Xie Yiying listened to her hypocrisy, and didn't pay much attention to it, the aroma of braised straw mushrooms in front of her was fragrant, and she lowered her eyes and waited for her aunt to move the chopsticks first.
Sun Wan'er also thought that Xie Yiying was deliberately expressing her contempt for herself, so she leaned back and wanted to stand up and say something, but Bisi on the left hand side was hunched over to pour tea for her, and she happened to hit her right elbow, the teapot was tilted, and a small half of the tea was spilled on Sun Wan'er's dress.
Sun Wan'er twisted her eyebrows and raised her hand to slap her.
Xie Yiying was in a daze when she smelled the fragrance of vegetables, and her expression that had always been smiling in front of outsiders when she saw this scene also became cold: "What does Miss Sun mean by this." ”
Sun Wan'er also reacted at this time, beating someone's maid ring on someone's house, in the end, it didn't mean to give the owner face. It's just that I've always been pampered at home, and when I'm not served well, I'm used to beating and scolding my subordinates, and I'm just a subordinate......
"It's just a subordinate, you can't even pour tea, and your sister will teach you a lesson." Mrs. Sun's tone was reasonable.
Xie Yiying still had a calm face: "My maid, I haven't beaten myself." Mrs. Sun, I raised people to serve me, not for outsiders to beat and scold. ”
"Cousin, don't ruin our sisterhood for the sake of a subordinate."
Xie Yiying squinted her eyes and looked at her, she often smiled at people, always looking happy, very beautiful and not threatening, sweet and good-looking can make people fall in, but when she put away her expression, she was calm and self-controlled, and there was a chill in her eyes.
Seeing that Sun Wan'er also felt scared, she stood up and raised her hand to the door elegantly and detachedly: "Send off guests." ”
"Are you trying to drive us away?"
"I'm afraid Mrs. Sun forgot, this is not the Sun Mansion, nor the Xie Mansion, this is the residence of the Four Princes."
