Chapter 034: I Don't Punish You
Xue Qin was not so scared because Jian Ying was smiling when she spoke, and stood with her eyes lowered, quickly thinking about how to deal with it.
Jian Ying held her cheek in one hand and took a spoon in the other hand to stir the mung bean soup in the bowl, "You don't accept me, but you rely on two things: one is the old lady, and the other is my secret."
I'm going to help you analyze how unreliable these two points you rely on are. ”
Xueqin sneered in her heart, the old lady has always been the same in the Jian family, not to mention a fake, even Master Jian, he didn't dare to make a mistake in front of the old lady. Is there anyone in this world who is not afraid of their secrets being revealed? She didn't believe it.
"Slaves and maids listen to you."
These words sound humble, but they exude a sense of confidence.
Jian Ying was not in a hurry to hit her, and said slowly: "There are generally two kinds of commissioners, one is sent out to show off their might, and the other is sent out to eliminate disasters and prevent disasters, to put it bluntly, that is, to be sent to death as cannon fodder.
The first is of course noble, and whoever sees it has to hold it; Although the second type is thankless, it can come in handy, that is, he can earn the name of a martyr even if he dies.
You don't even count as the second type, but it's just a starling that the old lady put next to me, and it's useless except to learn how to speak.
You say that I am going to accidentally kill a starling, will the old lady show her grandmother's love for her granddaughter and send another starling over, or kill me, the second young lady of the Ji'an Palace, to avenge the dead starling? ”
Xueqin's face changed, and her hands folded in front of her subconsciously clasped together.
"Tell me my secret." Jian Ying was tired of stirring clockwise, so she changed it to counterclockwise and continued to stir, "Why do you think the Jian family is so bold and dares to take my high imitation to make up the numbers?"
Is it because the Jane family has the confidence not to be discovered? No, it is because the Jian family is confident that it will be discovered, and the Ji'an Royal Mansion will also put the interests of the two families first and turn a blind eye.
This is the same as a husband who has impotence ~ impotence and asks other men to make a hole for him. After the bride and the man had a spring ~ night, they found out the truth, so they could only pretend not to know. Why? Because when it was spread, the most humiliating person was not her husband, but herself.
So, you don't figure out the order. The person who is most afraid of the secret leak is not me, the first is the Jian family, and the second is the Ji'an Palace, and I can only barely rank third.
If someone dares to leak secrets, the first and second will come forward to deal with it immediately, and I won't have to do it at all. ”
Jian Ying was tired, threw the spoon back into the bowl with a "ding", saw Xue Qin's shoulders shrink, hooked the corners of her lips, and came to a conclusion, "Now do you know why I can kill you but not you?" Because you're no threat to me. ”
Xueqin set off a storm in her heart, isn't it, the old lady can even give up her favorite sixth lady for the sake of the Jian family, and she still cares about the life or death of a girl?
Mother Jiang is right, as long as the old lady doesn't call her back, she will be in the hands of this fake sixth lady for the rest of her life. What if she is not convinced? What can you get except to provoke the annoying person in front of you and make yourself unable to get ahead?
She's so smart that she's been foolish for a while, and she hasn't figured this out until now.
Fortunately, she is also a person who can bend and stretch, and knelt down heavily with the hem of her skirt, "In the past, the slave maid had no eyes, and she didn't know how thick the sky was, and she was not respectful enough to Miss Six, and the slave maid really deserved death."
From now on, the slave and maid will only recognize Miss Six as a master, and ask Miss Six to punish the slave and maid heavily. ”
"I don't punish you." Jian Ying said lightly.
Are you kidding? She is a virtuous woman, not only to be like a sister to her concubines, but also to treat her subordinates with generosity and kindness.
Xueqin's back stiffened, raised her head and said earnestly: "The slave knows that Miss Six still can't trust the slave and the maid, and the slave will work hard, and one day, the sixth miss will see the loyalty of the slave and the maid." ”
"Then wait until then." Jian Ying waved at her and motioned for her to go down.
Xueqin also wanted to express her heart again, but she was afraid that saying too much would backfire. Answering the "yes", she got up to leave, and stood again, "Miss Six, there is one thing that the slave maid doesn't understand......
"Say it." Jian Ying's fingers lightly tapped the handle of the spoon, and she drank those few things over and over again every day, she had begun to get tired of it, and she couldn't help but miss the various drinks she had drunk before.
Xue Qin wanted to ask her why she was so good to the three aunts, and she was afraid that she would think she was too lenient, so she only said today's matter, "Miss Six, why do you only buy things for the aunts and not for yourself?" ”
Jian Ying tilted her head and glanced at her, "Whose money did you spend on buying things today?" ”
"Uncle's." Xueqin answered, but didn't understand what she meant by asking.
"If you were the second young master, although you didn't lack those tens or hundreds of taels of silver, what would you think when you watched me spend a lot of money and buy myself a lot of things?"
Xueqin plucked up her courage, but still couldn't say the word "loser".
Jian Ying didn't wait for her, and said to herself: "It's the same dozens of hundreds of taels of silver, I spent it on those three aunts, what do you think?" ”
"Virtuous." Xueqin blurted out these two words first, and then suddenly realized.
Jian Ying hadn't finished speaking, "If you were the second young master and heard that I didn't buy a single thing for myself, what would you do?" ”
I don't know if it's the credit of her guidance, or because she let go of her prejudices and saw the moon when she cleared the clouds, Xueqin's brain turned extremely fast at this moment, "If it's a slave, the slave will feel that Miss Six has treated her badly, and she will definitely think of compensating Miss Six." ”
Jian Ying nodded approvingly, and said in her heart that this girl still has merit, "Then you can talk about it, which one is more comfortable to use, and what I bought for myself out of squandering men's money, or what men spent money to buy for me out of guilt and respect?" ”
"The latter, of course." Xueqin replied as she pondered what she had said.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that her move is very clever, not only spending my uncle's money, but also making my uncle feel ashamed of her, making the three aunts grateful to her, and making everyone think that she is virtuous.
He said happily and convincingly, "The slave has been taught." ”
"Still have questions?" Jian Ying asked.
"No, the slave and maid are gone." Xueqin turned around and walked out of the door, thinking that she was also in a heart-to-heart with Miss Six, as long as she behaved well, she would not worry that Miss Six would not reuse her.
At dinner, Fang sent Peiyu to send a few fine fabrics and a pair of bracelets of mutton fat jade, saying that it was for Jian Ying not to patronize her aunts and dress up herself.
Xueqin knew that she couldn't regain the slightest contempt for Jian Ying, and vowed to impress Jian Ying with her in the shortest possible time.
As soon as Pei Yu left for a while, Jin Ping led Xiao Ji back......
