Chapter 13 This is a slap in the face
After Chu Feifei finished speaking, there was silence in the room.
Refuse to go to the Ming Garden of the eldest prince? Let's not talk about whether this girl has a bad brain, if she wants to refuse such a good thing, she wants to refuse to go to Mingyuan in front of the eldest young master, and it is also a slap in the face.
Everyone in the room peeked at the eldest prince's face for a while.
Xia Shaoyuan slowly put down the tea bowl in his hand, and there was a soft sound of "ding", but in this quiet room where breathing could be heard, it made everyone's hearts tremble, and they all bowed their heads and knelt down, and they didn't dare to come out.
Although Xia Shaoyuan looks elegant and has a strong book rhyme, he is actually not as good-tempered as he seems. Xia Shaoyuan is Xia Xiangguo's only son in the end, the noble son's temper must be there, and it is not small, if the maid in his room violates his taboo, he will be pulled out and killed directly.
There was once a little girl who recommended herself for a pillow, probably because of Mrs. Xiangguo's instructions, she boldly climbed into the eldest son's bed at night and begged the prince for mercy. The eldest prince not only kicked her down, but also forbade her to dress and kneel in the courtyard all night. It was early autumn at that time, and the night rain at night was like a burst, and the girl was ashamed and angry, and she froze in the rain all night, and fell ill the next day.
The eldest prince directly asked the girl to carry her home, gave the money to be burned, and said that such a girl would be a shame to her relatives if she was good, so it was better to let her go.
The girl's parents were both slaves of the Xiangguo Mansion, and they didn't dare to disobey, and the girl didn't know if she was really sick and died or in any case, she was buried quietly three days later.
As soon as this incident came out, it was said that Mrs. Xiangguo was also angry and sick. The eldest prince went to the bed to do his filial piety, and he didn't know what to say to his wife, in short, his wife was sick in two days, and he didn't care about his son's room from then on, but occasionally saw a girl with a good appearance, or stuffed it into his son's garden.
However, after this incident, the girls all know the rules of the eldest prince, the eldest prince cherishes flowers and pities flowers, and is easy to speak, and the girls just broke some rare treasures, and it is quite a reprimand. There is only one point, don't do that shameless thing, if you commit the taboo of the eldest prince, it is really only a dead end.
It's a pity that there are always some people in this world who think they are beautiful, and they think that the eldest son treats them very differently. So there were those who put love flowers in the eldest son's sachet, some wrote love poems to the eldest son, and some put their own small clothes under the eldest prince's pillow, in short, they were all pulled out in the end, and the old mother Jin Mama who came out of the palace helped to dispose of it.
Whether those girls were killed or sold in the end, the eldest prince did not frown lightly, it seems that those girls who he cherished and loved were just a group of things, not even a rare object.
Since those few incidents, the maids' charming thoughts about the eldest prince have faded a little, and no one dares to post it by themselves, but they are angry in front of Mrs. Xiangguo and the old lady, and they can't wait to let the two elders point themselves directly to the eldest prince.
However, Chu Feifei was just hearsay, and she didn't have a chance to see it with her own eyes, when she entered the mansion, Mingyuan had been peaceful for several months. The past few bloody cases, everyone is also secretive and refuses to talk about them in detail.
Chu Feifei learned one when he was in the orphanage, the more true~xiang knows, the faster he will die. Therefore, Chu Feifei has never been interested in the true ~ phase.
Whether the eldest prince is really affectionate or really ruthless has nothing to do with her, she only knows that there is absolutely no good end for getting close to the eldest prince, and Chu Feifei, who has become instinctive to seek good fortune and avoid evil, even if he risks offending the eldest prince, he will refuse to enter the Ming Garden.
The maids and mothers-in-law in the room held their breath, waiting for the anger of the eldest son, and were slapped in the face by a little maid in public, I am afraid that any master will be angry. What's more, Xia Shaoyuan is the only young master of Xiangguo Mansion, and he is also a future scholar of Hanlin Academy, and now he is disgusted by a little girl in his own home.
Xia Shaoyuan put down the tea bowl, his eyes fell lightly on Chu Feifei's body, and he didn't speak, just looked at Chu Feifei quietly.
The old lady also looked at Chu Feifei silently for a moment, then her eyes flashed slightly, and she smiled slightly: "This girl also has a heart, but your craftsmanship is buried here in my old wife, or"
At this time, Xia Shaoyuan suddenly smiled and said: "Grandmother, how can there be a grandchild who goes to his grandmother's place to eat tea and robs his grandmother alone, this girl is good at making tea, and she should be serving her grandmother here." If the grandson finds out that there is such a good hand at making tea, he will also send it to his grandmother first, and honor his grandmother. ”
The old lady liked to hear this, nodded with a smile, and was about to speak.
Chu Feifei had already said crisply: "Slave and maid Xie eldest prince is considerate, and old lady Xie is complete." ”
The smile on the old lady's face stiffened slightly, and she glanced at Mama Cai beside her, Mama Cai shook her head slightly, and the old lady sighed lowly: "Okay, it's rare that you have this filial piety, this tea is made well today, and the fabric on this spring will reward you with a horse, and it will save Shaoyuan from ridiculing our Ruiyuan girl for not being able to wear beautiful clothes." ”
The old lady was talking about when Xia Shaoyuan named Chu Feifei, and said that the color of her clothes had faded, Chu Feifei's face was slightly red, and the maids around her laughed playfully.
"In the future, if Shaoyuan comes to me to say goodbye, you will make this tea." The old lady said lightly.
Chu Feifei hurriedly bowed down to thank her, only to feel that a few jealous eyes fell on her, making her feel like a man's back.
The old lady glanced at Xia Shaoyuan, who was eating tea with his head down, and said with a smile: "It seems that Shaoyuan really likes this tribute tea, and your father's filial piety will share half of you, and the elders will give it, and you are not allowed to resign." The old lady deliberately straightened her face.
Xia Shaoyuan hurriedly got up and thanked him.
The old lady said again: "I don't know if any of the people there will make this tribute tea, so let this girl Feifei go with you, and teach you the maid in the garden by the way." ”
Xia Shaoyuan smiled: "It's still grandmother's thoughtfulness." ”
At this time, after the rain, the sky was clear, and the maid who knelt in the house also got up quietly, and the eldest maid Cai'e stepped forward to knock on the old lady's shoulder and smiled: "Look at what the old lady said, the eldest prince's Mingyuan also has a girl who came out of Xinming's body, it seems to be called Xueqing, and I think I will make this tribute tea, so I will use someone to send someone to go." ”
"Really?" The old lady looked at Xia Shaoyuan in surprise, why did she say so much just now, and she didn't hear him mention it.
Xia Shaoyuan was also surprised: "Is there one?" I also have a tea maker in my garden? How I don't know. ”
Cai'e pursed her lips and smiled, and looked at Xia Shaoyuan with rolling eyes: "Whether it is a good hand at making tea, the slave maid doesn't know, but Xue Qing did come in the same batch as Feifei, and they were all from Xinming's body, but it is true." ”
Xia Shaoyuan didn't pay attention to Cai'e's Qiubo, just said goodbye respectfully to the old lady, and said lightly when he passed by Chu Feifei, who was standing by the door with his head down: "Since this is the case, you can go with me, if it is sunny, you will teach her." ”
Chu Feifei hurriedly bowed down and said yes, didn't dare to shirk anymore, obediently lowered his head, and followed the eldest prince to the legendary Ming Garden
