Chapter 33: Lan Zhi is punished
Lan Zhi, who was originally full of sarcasm, was frightened by Xiao Jinxuan's words, and looked at the other party aggrievedly.
The voice was very small and defended: "This pigeon soup is so difficult, the maid is also distressed for the young lady, and she has spoken too much, also because the maid is too anxious." ”
When Xiao Jinxuan heard this, she glanced at Lan Zhi, and said in a cold tone: "In this way, you are still kind-hearted, Miss Ben said you, wouldn't it be good to be lucky." ”
Lan Zhi waved her hand again and again, and said uneasily: "Miss, don't say that, as long as you know the mind of the slave maid, the slave and maid will be satisfied." ”
Xiao Jinxuan raised her eyebrows, and then said calmly: "Okay, Lan Zhi, you go to the treasury and bring me the blood ginseng sent by the Sixth Prince a few days ago." ”
After Ji Lingfeng and the others left that day, the six princes sent a lot of things in the name of suppressing the alarm, and she naturally had a share, and this blood ginseng was among them.
When Lan Zhi heard this, she was stunned, and she didn't say anything after all, but when she turned to leave, she glared at Wen Xin and Baizhu with a very bad expression, and went out.
As soon as Lan Zhi left, Xiao Jinxuan said gently: "Wen Xin, Baizhu, you can eat more when you are hungry, you don't have to be polite, you can't let go." ”
In her previous life, Xiao Jinxuan lived in Zhuangzi, so she can also interact calmly with these people at the bottom, after all, she has also survived from a hard life, and she has never felt that she is superior to anyone.
Even compared with those intriguing dignitaries, she does feel that the flat-headed people are more at ease to make friends.
Wen Xin has returned to his cheerful appearance, holding pigeon soup and drinking it with satisfaction
It wasn't until he drank it all in one breath that he burped and asked, "Cousin, what's your name?" ”
Baizhu, who had not spoken beside him, would not be so nervous, and said: "The fourth lady is called Xiao Jinxuan, Jin is Jinyu's Jin, Xuan is the Xuancao of Xuancao, and the daylily is also called Sanssoucao, it is rumored that Sanssouci can solve worries, but in fact, it is also a flavored medicinal material." ”
Xiao Jinxuan listened quietly, and then asked, "Baizhu sees that you have a good conversation, but you have studied and know a lot about medicinal materials." ”
Hearing this, Baizhu nodded slightly: "Since I was a child, I have read a few medical books with my father, and the characters are also taught by my father." ”
At the mention of Liu Langzhong, her tears couldn't help but roll in her eyes again.
Seeing this, Xiao Jinxuan sighed and said, "It just so happens that there is a lack of pharmacology around me, if you want, stay by my side." ”
This happened to be heard by Lan Zhi, who came back from taking ginseng, and when she saw her enter the door, she said, "Miss, our yard is full of people, and this unknown person is really not suitable to stay." ”
In fact, she was also selfish in saying this, seeing Xiao Jinxuan, her attitude towards her was becoming colder and colder, if this Baizhu came, it would inevitably affect her position.
There are only two positions in the close-fitting first-class maid ring, how can Lan Zhi be willing to fight with her with multiple people.
Xiao Jinxuan took the blood ginseng, but said with a smile that didn't care: "Yes, this courtyard is full, but it doesn't matter, just send one out." ”
Lan Zhi was shocked when she heard this, because Xiao Jinxuan is usually very talkative, before a maid cleaned the yard, she accidentally smashed the big green jade flower pot in the courtyard, and she didn't see the other party scolding, let alone picking people.
Now she doesn't remember who in the yard made a serious mistake, why this fourth young lady was about to drive people out when she opened her mouth.
Driven by curiosity, Lan Zhi asked suspiciously: "Miss, who are you driving away, those little girls in the courtyard have been very peaceful recently, so it's not good." ”
As soon as this Baizhu came, the young lady did not hesitate to provoke people for her, and the more Lan Zhi thought about it, the more angry she became, and she didn't like to see the other party enter the hospital.
saw Xiao Jinxuan hand the blood ginseng to Wen Xin, and then said calmly: "Yes, it's all quite peaceful, and I didn't say that I wanted to drive them away." Lan Zhi, you can clean up in a while, and you can leave, I don't need you to serve me in the future. ”
As soon as she said this, the people in the room were stunned, and the bamboo, which had always been good with Lan Zhi, said in disbelief: "Miss, you are joking, you really want to discharge Lan Zhi from the hospital." ”
Since she followed Xiao Jinxuan and came back from Zhuangzi, she has been very close to Lan Zhi, Zhuzi didn't understand anything at first, and the other party taught her little by little, and the two of them were like sisters, so naturally she couldn't bear it at this time.
And Bai Zhu was even more panicked, she felt that she was coming, Xiao Jinxuan was about to drive others away, and she was about to stand up and intercede for Lan Zhi, but she was stopped by Wen Xin on the side and signaled her not to speak.
Wen Xin has lived a difficult life since he was a child, and his ability to observe words and emotions is as perfect as fire.
As soon as he came in, he felt that Xiao Jinxuan's attitude towards Lan Zhi seemed to be very cold.
He felt that the other party's words were not said because of Baizhu, and he was afraid that there were other reasons, so he grabbed Baizhu and saved her from saying the wrong thing.
Lan Zhi was also stunned, and when she reacted, she immediately knelt on the ground, and said with a puzzled face: "Miss, the maid asks herself if she is loyal to you, and she doesn't dare to cheat and play tricks on weekdays, why is this girl here, you want to take me away, Lan Zhi is not convinced." ”
Xiao Jinxuan glanced at Lan Zhi coldly, and sneered in her heart, it seems that she is still too good at talking on weekdays, and Lan Zhi, the talented bamboo, dares to question her face to face.
I don't give them a long memory today, I'm afraid that they will go to the house tomorrow to uncover the tiles.
I saw that she smiled lightly, and said in an extremely soothing tone: "Loyal? Don't cheat? Na Lan Zhi, let me ask you, that **** told you to follow Mother Bai, you said that letter, she really burned it, didn't she? ”
Don't look at this for half a month, Xiao Jinxuan has never forgotten how dangerous that day was, if it weren't for her kind thoughts and moved Yucui, the letter she wrote was left behind after all.
And at that time, Lan Zhi still swore that the letter was ruined and told her that it was a bunch of nonsense, which almost killed her, if it wasn't for the snow disaster, she didn't have time to choose Yahuan, and people like Lan Zhi would not have used it again in the morning.
Lan Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then said in a panic: "Yes, yes, the maid looked at Mother Bai with her own eyes and burned the letter, Miss has been so long, why are you asking this." ”
Xiao Jinxuan sneered when she heard this, then got up and came to the bookcase, and suddenly took out a piece of letter paper from a classic book and slapped it on the table.
And asked sternly: "Since you have seen it with your own eyes, why is this letter in my hands now, it is obviously a quibble, you are so foolish and perfunctory to me, and you dare to say that you are loyal, Lan Zhi, your mouth, is really hateful." ”
Lan Zhi was already weak-hearted, because she really didn't see it that day, so she ran back in fright, but now that she has been exposed, she doesn't dare to harden her mouth.
immediately begged for mercy and said: "Miss, it was the slave maid who was confused for a while, and I was afraid that you would punish me, so I lied, and the slave didn't dare next time, please give me a chance." ”
But Xiao Jinxuan raised her eyebrows and said coldly: "You just left obediently, and I won't bother with you, but if you want to argue with me, then I will have to punish you, come on, bring in the bamboo ruler and slap her mouth hard." ”
The people waiting outside listened to the swing, and after a short time, they took the bamboo ruler, two maids held down Lan Zhi, and the other was about to do it, but was stopped by Xiao Jinxuan.
"Bamboo, you come to the palm, less than twenty times, don't stop."
After Xiao Jinxuan finished speaking, she sat down directly, leaned on the back of the chair and narrowed her eyes.
In fact, her punishment was not heavy, compared to Lan Zhi's lie, which almost caused her to be designed, this is simply a small punishment and a big commandment, which is nothing.
But this stumped the bamboo, she and Lan Zhi have a deep relationship, how to get down, hold the hand of the bamboo ruler, shake non-stop, lift and put down, just can't fight for a long time.
"If you can't do it, get out with Lan Zhi, I can't keep it here, a disobedient minion."
Xiao Jinxuan still didn't open her eyes, and said this in an old-fashioned manner, in fact, she was leaning on the back of the chair now, she didn't look like a teenage girl at all, a kind of calmness that did not match her age, and everyone present was shocked, no one dared to plead, and even the words of bamboo to her mouth swallowed back in fright.
In fact, it is not surprising that she was in her twenties when she died in her previous life, and now although she is eleven years old on the outside, she is an adult on the inside.
In addition, she was a princess, and she was afraid of embarrassing Ji Lingfeng, so she also studied the palace rules and etiquette hard.
Now invisibly, this kind of bearing is revealed, and the deterrent power is naturally considerable.
Zhuzi was forced out of her tears, thinking that if she didn't do it, she would be driven away, so she saw her gritting her teeth, ignoring Lan Zhi's pleading, and waved the bamboo ruler in her hand.
"Ah, don't fight, miss, woo woo woo ......"
Only five feet down, the corners of Lan Zhi's mouth oozed blood, and she wailed in pain, looking very miserable.
Bamboo's hands trembled in fright, and he cried loudly, but thinking that Xiao Jinxuan ordered twenty times, the bamboo ruler in his hand didn't dare to stop, crying loudly, and waved it down again and again.
Later, Zhu Zi didn't know how many times he had beaten, and Lan Zhi had already fainted with red and swollen cheeks, a mouth full of blood, and even a tooth was knocked out and fell to the ground wrapped in blood.
"Okay, bamboo is fine." Xiao Jinxuan's cold voice sounded.
Although the voice was cold, it was like a heavenly sound in Zhuzi's ears, like a bamboo ruler who had been amnestied, and Zhuzi didn't even dare to look at Lan Zhi, crying and said: "Miss, the bamboo has done as you say, don't drive me away." ”
Xiao Jinxuan stood up, motioned to the three maid rings to pull Lan Zhi away, stepped forward to help the bamboo and said: "Don't blame me for forcing you hard, I just want you to remember the feeling of today, do you know that if I hadn't been alert that day, with that letter, it would not be the second sister who is now imprisoned in the family temple, and it should be me Xiao Jinxuan." ”
Zhuzi was stunned when she heard this, she naturally knew about the events of that day, although she didn't understand it very well, but she also knew that it seemed that because of Lan Zhi's lie, her young lady almost encountered something extremely terrible.
Thinking about it like this, Zhuzi didn't sympathize with Lan Zhi in his heart, but said anxiously: "What is the young lady doing with that letter, hurry up and destroy it." ”
Xiao Jinxuan smiled, turned around and picked up the so-called handwritten letter, and held it up, it turned out to be a blank piece of paper.
Zhuzi was puzzled again: "Miss, this is not your handwritten letter at all." ”
Xiao Jinxuan explained softly: "Such a dangerous thing, I naturally destroyed it as soon as possible, just now I tried Lan Zhi, if she really saw the letter paper burned at that time, even if I took out the so-called evidence, she should have been wronged, then I believe that she was deceived by Mother Bai's tricks, and she didn't deliberately hide what I meant." ”
Zhuzi nodded, and suddenly said: "But as soon as she saw Miss take out this blank paper, because she was weak-hearted, she didn't even look at it, so Miss concluded that she had lied that night." ”
Xiao Jinxuan just smiled, unwilling to continue to dwell on this matter.
The words changed and said: "Today, Lan Zhi is to remind you that you must know how to be on an errand in the future, otherwise I will be framed, and you will never be able to escape." ”
She is not alarmist, Xiao Jinlian had an accident, which of the maids around her ran away, either she was killed with a cane, or sent out, and there was no good ending.
When Baizhu and Zhuzi heard this, they both stopped speaking thoughtfully.
Seeing this, Wen Xin on the side said with a smile: "This big family, there are many doorways, fortunately I am not your subordinate, otherwise I would be really afraid of you." ”
Xiao Jinxuan smiled when she heard this, and said jokingly: "Originally, I saw that you were a warm-hearted and filial person, and I wanted to find you an errand in the house, but since you are so afraid of me, then forget it, take this blood ginseng to honor your mother, don't come." ”
Wen Xin listened, the whole person was stunned, how many people wanted to enter the Xiao Mansion to work, but they didn't expect this fourth lady to be willing to let him come.
In his heart was ecstatic, he hurriedly said: "Miss is kind-hearted, this is pity for me, just now I was talking nonsense, if Miss uses me, I will definitely work hard, loyal, I will only listen to you in this life." ”
