"So your mistress is really not the general's wife?" Liu Yiyi thanked herself for reading a lot of house fighting novels in her previous life, so that she now has the confidence to fight back, "But the concubine room is also of grade, how many grades is the hostess of your family, can you dispatch the yacha to arrest people casually?" β
ββ¦β¦ What is casual, the people of the Lei family can pinch you to death as easily as pinching an ant! The first little girl who competed with the Mu family opened her mouth, and only after a while did she pop out a threat.
"That is to say, your hostess doesn't even have a rank, even if she is a concubine, she is a cheap concubine, so you dare to be so rampant? The military department is now seriously ill, and General Lei was summoned back by the holy decree to enter filial piety, at this time, your hostess does not help serve the decoction, and has the leisure to go shopping? Still grabbing clothes with others and dressing up with fancy things? Okay, why don't we go to the government office, and everyone in the public court will see it, so that the people of the capital can see who is ignoring it. β
Looking at the increasingly unnatural faces of the two maids of the Lei family, Liu Yiyi finally had some confidence in herself, this is the momentum that a crossing girl with a known plot should have, knowing that many people can still mess up themselves more and more miserably, it shouldn't be.
"Your mistress is outside, right? Why don't you go and ask her, how about everyone going to the government court together? Liu Yiyi's thinking became clearer as soon as she was confident, and the two maids of the Lei family couldn't help but look out of the door at this time, and sure enough, there was a mastermind behind it.
"You wait, my wife won't spare you when she comes!" The two maids of the Lei family threatened viciously, and their legs retreated.
"Madame? It seems like a sin to take a concubine as a wife, right? "Don't blame Liu Yiyi for taking advantage of the victory to chase unforgivingly, it's really the other party's heart is too black, if it really makes people pick off their clothes and beat them in public, don't talk about ancient people, modern people can't stand it!
The two maids of the Lei family shook their footsteps when they stepped out of the threshold, and finally ran out without falling, and then ...... There was no movement for a while. It's not like they threatened before leaving, and they immediately invited "Mrs." to support them.
"Gone, even the sedan chair is gone!" There was a anxious messenger who went out to look for it, and then came back to report.
"......" the public is poor.
"A couple of girls. Offended. "An older yacha first hugged his fists and said, he can scare the people of the Lei family away in a few words, even if it is a concubine who is not in the stream, this is also a skill.
Liu Yiyi nodded and accepted his apology, and didn't say much else.
A few of the officials still have something to do. Just be polite, of course, this is also because they don't know how noble Mu Qingyin's identity is.
is so noble that he doesn't resist when he is bullied by a concubine who doesn't want to go...... Liu Yiyi looked at Mu Qingyin's gaze, she really hated that iron could not become steel.
In this novel, it is not said who Mu Qingyin is hurt by love, but in the last chapter, it is said that Weiyuan General Lei Fengxing returned to Beijing due to his father's illness, and when he was about to face the saint, Li Mu was worried about Li Ping's willfulness with Lin Yuxiao, and then as soon as he heard that Lei Fengxing was coming, Lin Yuxiao excused himself to retire, but he didn't really leave, he secretly watched Lei Fengxing.
Lei Fengxing appeared like this once, and then the novel ended. The author wrote in the afterword that the second series will tell the story of Mu Qingyin, and at that time Zhang Yi guessed that Lei Fengxing was Mu Qingyin's male protagonist, and now looking at Mu Qingyin's appearance, he is more sure of 90%.
When Liu Yiyi said that Lei Fengxing was not married, and the so-called general's wife was fake, Mu Qingyin, who was about to be suffocated by grief and despair, finally breathed a sigh of relief, indeed, he has not yet married, how can he not know this, how can others faint when they say nothing?
The breath is relieved. Her body was still soft, Mu Qingyin could only sit on the side, listening to Liu Yiyi's words to scare those people away, and then listening to Liu Yiyi ask her: "Miss Mu." Are you alright, do you want us to go back first? β
"No, aren't you going to Tonghe Building?" Now that she is back at home like this, she will definitely not be able to hide it from the old lady, and when the time comes, she will hear that it is the Lei family who bullied them...... Mu Qingyin didn't dare to think about the consequences.
"Then let's go to Tonghe Building." Liu Yiyi did not object.
Seeing that his young lady was fine, Bingnuo picked up the wrapped clothes again: "Miss Liu." Thank you so much just now, the Lei family is really not a good ......"
"Bingnuo!" Mu Qingyin didn't let Yahuan continue.
In the embroidery village, Liu Yiyi was inconvenient to ask, but she still had to say when she went out: "Miss Mu, I don't know what kind of festival you and the Lei family have, you are so stubborn, and I don't want to get involved in the affairs of the two of you, I just want to ask you, would you rather be dragged to the yamen to play the board than let your maid reveal your true identity?" β
If Mu Qingyin dares to answer "yes", then Liu Yiyi has to stay away from this one for nothing, her luck has been negative since she crossed over, and she really can't guarantee that she will not be affected by the pond fish next time.
Fortunately, although Mu Qingyin is reluctant to ask questions and ignore people because of emotional injury, she will take a bath and change clothes every day to ensure that her white clothes are clean and dusty, how can such a person who attaches importance to her face be dragged to the yamen to be humiliated in public?
"I brought the token of Renshou Palace with me, if it is necessary, I will say that I am a person from the palace." Mu Qingyin said in a low voice, "Thank you Miss Liu for today's incident." β
"You're welcome, I'm also here to protect myself, and I don't want to be tortured anyway...... The woman is just a concubine who is not in the stream, and she is so ruthless...... "It's okay to say that she is just a lover and has a debt, what happened to the people next to them?" And even such a ruthless woman was accepted into the room, Liu Yiyi was even more disgusted with Lei Fengxing, scumbag, 100 percent!
Speaking of the woman who was thunderous, Mu Qingyin's face turned a little paler, and she could also hear that Liu Yiyi was dissatisfied with her weakness, no wonder, it was a trivial matter to be robbed of clothes, but who could not be angry when someone was arrested to beat the board and ruin the second half of a girl's life?
"The Mu family and the Lei family have a ...... enmity" Mu Qingyin explained in a low voice, "more than 20 years ago, I was not born, the first emperor was seriously ill, and he had the intention to choose an heir, this news somehow spread to Jiangdong, the first emperor's younger brother Anyang Wang raised an army to plot rebellion, my second uncle was ordered to quell the rebellion, seeing that he wanted to win the grain and grass but did not arrive, the result was defeated, my second uncle was arrested, because he did not vote for the king of Anyang and was killed, at that time it was my third uncle who was responsible for support, he was very angry and blamed the soldier who escorted the grain and grass......
ββ¦β¦ Later, my father and my third uncle joined forces to quell the rebellion, only to find out that the squire of the military department did not deliberately delay time and not send grain and grass, but that he had a spy under the king of Anyang. secretly set fire to the grain and grass, he had to raise it again to delay the time, my third uncle did not find out and handed it to the capital, so the Lei family was imprisoned. Although the emperor did not kill them out of anger, the wife of the soldier was eight months pregnant at that time, and even the frightened premature birth, the child was saved, and the adults ......."
The Lei family and the Mu family became enemies because of this. Liu Yiyi is now clear, but the family is in deep love, it turns out that Romeo met Juliet.
Mu Qingyin was dumbfounded, she met in the rivers and lakes two years ago, she thought he was the son of a wealthy businessman, he thought she was a woman from the hidden sect, and he said that he would persuade his parents to marry her......
"Miss, Tonghelou has arrived." Bing Nuo and Youlan were used to their own young lady's soul, but they didn't immediately guess that Lei Fengxing was the one who lost the young lady. As soon as you arrive at the place, you will be responsible for reminding you.
Can't be seen! Mu Qingyin sorted out the feelings and tried to make herself as natural as possible: "Then let's go in, Miss Liu, don't forget to teach us how to make jade soup." β
Although there was a little delay in the embroidery village, but now it is still not the noon meal, I heard the female shop guy said that two girls came to find the boss, Han Niangzi came out curiously, and was surprised and delighted when she met: "Miss Mu!?" It's been a long time, but you, a distinguished guest, can come to the door, and the little woman guesses that it is Miss Liu's credit, right? β
To the Han lady who has always had a good impression. Mu Qingyin showed a hint of a smile: "I came because of Miss Liu, she wants to teach me how to make jade soup, and I will make it for my grandmother to taste after I have learned it." β
"Yo, it's still Miss Mu who is the most filial. Miss Liu's cooking skills are so good, I don't know if I can let the little woman help her, or take the opportunity to learn a trick or two. Han Niangzi never mentioned how Mu Qingyin had made the Mu family unpeaceful in the past two years, and this matter had nothing to do with her.
"Sister Han is too modest, it should be that I beg my sister not to be stingy with advice." came to borrow someone's kitchen, Liu Yiyi was embarrassed to turn away the master's house.
"There is a sister who says this. My sister lent you the dedicated kitchenette! Han Niangzi said happily and personally led them to her own small kitchen.
The jade soup is very high, but in fact, the ingredients are very ordinary, which is spinach and chicken breast.
In March, it is a good season for all kinds of fresh vegetables to be on the market one after another, and Mrs. Han's small kitchen happens to have a large handful of spinach that has been washed and set aside.
"Since it's a soup, the ingredients have to be made very messy to digest, such as spinach chopped into fine puree, and chicken breast also has to be cut into puree."
Liu Yiyi began to cut spinach as she spoke, this small kitchen is not small, and it is no problem for three or five people to cook at the same time, so Han Niangzi also washed her hands and rolled up her sleeves: "Just chop it into chicken puree?" Isn't there anything special about knife skills? Then I'll come. β
"It's not special, it's just like making chicken meatballs in soup, just chop them so finely." Of course, Liu Yiyi didn't mind having someone help.
Heat the lard in the pot first, put in the spinach puree mixed with the seasoning after the oil boils, add an appropriate amount of chicken broth after stir-frying for one or two minutes, mix well and boil, then add some wet starch, simmer into a thick soup and pour it into the soup plate.
Add egg whites to the chicken puree, add cooking wine and seasonings, mix the cold chicken broth into minced chicken, then put it into a pot cooked in lard, stir it slowly with a small spoon to make it thick, and pour it into the other side of the soup plate.
Spinach puree and chicken puree, half green and half white like jadeite, hence the name jade soup.
This dish is indeed not difficult to make, but the ingredients are simple and the name is rich, of course, the important thing is the name, Han Niangzi learned to calculate in her heart, how much silver should be sold for a soup plate, to be worthy of the treasure of jade.
Not to mention that businessmen are lively, who let the lady Miss Qianjin who came to eat in Tonghelou always look at the money to order food, and the price is not high, and it is not easy to sell!
Mu Qingyin didn't stretch out her hand from beginning to end, but she had a foundation in cooking, and she learned how to do it just by watching Liu Yiyi and Han Niangzi do it.
When he tasted a bowl of jade soup, Mu Qingyin's weakened body that had been hit by the blow also recovered, so he took advantage of Han Niangzi to greet other guests, and there were only six of them in the private room, and first ordered his two maids: "Don't tell the old lady and the second young master about today's affairs, do you hear?" β
"Little ...... Miss!? "Bing Nuo and Youlan were unexpectedly bullied like this by the Lei family, and Miss still has to endure it!?
"If you dare to be disobedient, don't blame me for not thinking about the master-servant relationship for many years." Mu Qingyin grimaced with a cold face and showed no mercy.
Liu Yiyi frowned, she was almost stunned by a concubine of the Lei family, and in a blink of an eye, she was so powerful to her maid, isn't this what is in the nest? No wonder she can only be the heroine of the abusive text.
As an outsider, you can slander, but the two maids of the Mu family have no idea of resisting, they know how the young lady is favored in the Mu family, the young lady said that she doesn't like them anymore, the old lady and the second young master will definitely replace them without asking for reason!
"Miss Liu," Mu Qingyin still knew to be polite to outsiders, "Can you please keep today's matter a secret?" β
Liu Yiyi knows herself, she is not smart, Mu Qingyin is the real ice and snowman, so she thought about Mu Qingyin's request before answering: "If Mama Chen doesn't ask, I won't say." "I didn't refuse directly, but I gave face, right?
How could Mama Chen not ask her what she did after she went out? Mu Qingyin was not satisfied with this answer: "If Mama Chen knows, the Queen Mother will know that the Mu family and the Lei family ...... I really don't want to have any more disputes......"
"Miss Mu, I know you have the best heart, but if you think about it carefully, today's incident is clearly premeditated, which shows that the Lei family has declared war on the Mu family, and you still want to settle the matter and keep it hidden, so you are not afraid that your grandmother and brother will not know about it, and your life will be in danger?" Liu Yiyi talked about Mu Qingyin's relatives, she wanted to see what kind of Cheng dΓΉ this woman could "sacrifice" for love?
Mu Qingyin was stunned, and after thinking about it, she still insisted on her original: "No, this matter is just for me......" She believed in her feelings, so she didn't want to make a big deal about it, because once it made a big scene, "he" would know his true identity, and he would hate her even more......
Looking at this Fairy Mu's face full of "self-sacrifice", Liu Yiyi really couldn't agree: "Miss Mu, don't blame me if I speak straight, do you think that sacrificing you can resolve the feud between the Lei family and the Mu family?" β
"It's my Mu family, I'm sorry for the Lei family......" Mu Qingyin said in a low voice, her family hurt "him" and he lost his biological mother as soon as he was born, and she should have used her life's happiness to pay him back.
"If I didn't speak just now, would Miss Mu let the yacha take you and the two maids away, be humiliated in public, and then let people recognize you as the daughter of the Mu family, and the Mu family will be notorious from then on, the old lady is only afraid that he will lose half his life, and your father will have no shame to be the generalissimo again, your eldest brother will have no face to face the hundred officials in the court, and your little niece's future marriage is only afraid that it will be over, so that the Lei family is completely revenged, Miss Mu is still satisfied with this consequence, you really don't owe the Lei family anymore."
