Chapter 7: The Phoenix Shakes
Dye incense garden
Gu Qingwei returned to her courtyard, her face turned pale with anger, thinking that Su Yexi was teaching her a lesson with the eldest lady's shelf today, and she also killed her maid, so she was angry, picked up a cup of tea on the table and drank it
"Poof"
Gu Qingwei took a sip and spit it out, the teacup fell to the ground, fell apart, and scolded angrily
"Whoever brews the tea, it's cold, let me drink it!"
"I'm sorry, auntie, this tea slave maid brewed half an hour ago, originally calculated the time when you came back, but I didn't expect it...... Slave, slave and maid are now making a new cup, sorry aunt. ”
A little maid hurriedly stepped forward and kept admitting her mistake, Gu Qingwei was already angry in her heart, but at this moment, she was even more angry and scolded the maid angrily
"Why, do you mean to blame me for coming back late, so bold, relying on the fact that I was Shen Jing's slave before, do you dare not to take me in your eyes, you have to find out who your current master is!"
The little maid was suddenly so frightened that she knelt on the ground, unfortunately, her knee knelt directly on the splinter, and blood suddenly flowed out, and she was in unbearable pain, but she didn't dare to move, her face was pale, and there was sweat on her forehead.
Gu Qingwei didn't plan to let her get up, the little maid could only endure it, and she didn't dare to get up without Aunt Gu's instructions.
"Ouch, my aunt, why did you lose your temper so much, come, the old slave stewed pure heart lotus seed porridge for you, auntie, drink a little faster, lower the fire."
As soon as the words fell, an old lady brought a bowl of Qingxin lotus seed porridge into the inner room, Gu Qingwei saw the visitor, her face was much better, she drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, and her heart was much more comfortable, and said
"It's still my grandmother who loves me, but now it's much more comfortable."
The old lady smiled and spoke
"Auntie doesn't have to be angry for some unimportant people, bother, can't make it."
"Yes, Mama Wang is right, I already know what happened to my mother in Bingxin Pavilion today."
Behind the tassel, a woman walked in slowly.
The woman is wearing a light yellow smoke Luo soft yarn, a white mopping smoke cage plum blossom baishui skirt, the skirt gently turns the long skirt and spreads out, a white melon seed face, the face is like a peach blossom, the face is carefully depicted, the eyebrows are like a crescent moon, the cherry lips are like Zhu Dan, the skin is like condensation, and the air is like a quiet orchid.
This girl who looks like a fairy and walks from behind the tassel curtain is the most favored concubine in the Prime Minister's Mansion - Su Xinran.
Seeing her such a beautiful daughter, Gu Qingwei's anger suddenly disappeared, a rare smile of pity appeared on her face, she stepped forward, took her hand, and said
"Isn't Dye Er at the old lady's place, why did you come back so early, Cuizhu, quickly soak the third lady in her favorite rain before the rain."
Su Xinran smiled slightly and said softly
"Grandmother is not feeling well, so she rested early."
Gu Qingwei carefully tidied the hair hanging down next to her ears and said
"Alas, Dye'er, I've worked hard for you, but there's no way, who let that little slut be the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the old lady loves her, so you have to be better than her in everything, better than her, so that the old lady feels that you are a person who can bring infinite glory to the Prime Minister's Mansion, so that your road in the future will be better and more brilliant, understand?"
Su Xinran's eyes flashed with a hint of unwillingness, and he said softly
"I know, mother, don't worry, Dye'er won't let you down."
"Third Miss, drink tea."
Cuizhu entered the inner room with the soaked Longjing before the rain, Su Xinran took a sip of the teacup and took a sip gently, glanced at the little maid kneeling on the ground, the little maid's pants had been stained red with blood, and the whole person was crumbling, as if she was about to faint at any time, Su Xinran's eyes crossed a trace of unbearable, and said softly
"Qianshang, you go down first, I have something to discuss with my mother."
"Yes, Miss Three."
Asa forced the pain in her knee and tried to stand up, but found that even if she moved slightly, her knee was a cone of pain.
She couldn't help crying, but tears were rolling in her eyes, and Su Xinran naturally noticed it, she looked at Mama Wang and Cuizhu, and said
"Mama, Cuizhu is bothering you to help her down, and by the way, ask a doctor to show her."
"Yes, Miss Three."
Qianshang was slightly stunned for a while, she didn't expect that the third miss would care so much about her, and show her the doctor, Qianshang glanced at Su Xinran gratefully, and secretly swore in her heart that she would repay the third miss well in the future. ”
Looking at the backs of them leaving, Gu Qingwei was slightly dissatisfied and blamed
"Dye'er, why do you care so much about such a maid and show her a doctor."
Su Xinran slowly lowered her eyes, and a light smile appeared on her cherry lips: "Mother, don't look at her as just a maid, she is different from other maids, what's the meaning of icing on the cake, sending charcoal in the snow will make people remember the benefits, you look at it, this girl will definitely do something in the future." ”
Gu Qingwei disagreed, with a slight sarcasm on her eyebrows
"It's just a maid, what can I do."
Su Xinran sipped the tea lightly and did not say much.
As if thinking of something, Gu Qingwei said to Mama Wang on the side
"Mama, go and bring the things I prepared for the third lady."
"Yes, auntie."
Saying that, Mama Wang twisted her fat body into the room, Su Xinran put down the teacup and gently wiped the corners of her lips with her hand: "Mother, what do you have prepared for me?" ”
Gu Qingwei covered her lips and smiled, and said mysteriously
"Wait a minute, you'll know."
As she spoke, Mama Wang held a box in her hand and gave it to Gu Qingwei, the box was very delicate, made of sandalwood, small and exquisite, and there were some patterns engraved on it.
Gu Qingwei took the key and opened the box, which contained some jewelry, which was very delicate and beautiful, and the most eye-catching thing was a gilded filigree phoenix gold step, the phoenix on it was lifelike, like a living one, especially her eyes were carved with rubies, smart and exquisite.
Smell it carefully, there is a faint fragrance on it, Su Xinran has a little surprise in her eyes, she can't put it down with this step, gently caressing, she smiled brightly, like a blooming epiphany, and said softly
"Mother, this step shake is so beautiful."
Gu Qingwei smiled: "I like it, this is a gift prepared for you by my mother, you take it with you to the flower viewing banquet in the palace next month, and ensure that my daughter is the most beautiful person in the banquet." ”
"Mother, how can you have such a delicate and good-looking step."
Gu Qingwei was slightly stunned, a trace of unnaturalness crossed her eyes, and she smiled faintly
"This step shake is my mother's dowry, and I have always kept it in the box, just to prepare it for you."
"Oh, I see, mother, you are so good to me."
Saying that, Su Xinran rubbed into Bai Yuwei's arms like a kitten, Gu Qingwei suddenly felt warm, since her daughter grew up, she rarely got so close to her, she smiled and said with pity
"You are my only baby daughter, I don't care who you love, my mother can't wait to give you all the good things in this world."
If it weren't for Shen Jing's slut, it would be you who is the concubine now......" Thinking of Shen Jing, Gu Qingwei couldn't stop the hatred in her eyes.
"That's it, don't say this, you can rest assured, my mother will definitely plan everything for you."
