Tong Yao didn't believe that Zeng Rong didn't understand her question, but she was just pretending to be stupid because of her young background, she used this trick thirty years ago.

It's just that with her current status and status, she won't debunk Zeng Rong, so when she saw Zeng Rong asking, she smiled, "It's okay if you don't understand, you just need to remember one sentence, the girl's name is the most noble." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Zeng Rong to respond, she smiled again, "It's not right for this palace to say this, whether it is the palace maids or female officials in this palace, to put it bluntly, they are all slaves, and since they are slaves, they obey the orders of their masters, so it doesn't matter if they are famous or not." ”

That's mean enough.

Zeng Rong also smiled, "Back to the imperial concubine, the lower officials think it is very true, for a slave who does not even have personal freedom, the so-called honor is indeed a luxury, and people always have to recognize the reality." ”

"That's all you need." After Tong Yao finished speaking, he saw the smile on Zeng Rong's face, and after pondering it, he realized that he had fallen into the pit that Zeng Rong had dug.

No, to be exact, a pit that she dug herself.

Because she just told Zeng Rong that she and Zeng Rong had a similar experience, she wanted to shorten the distance and show her sincerity, so that the conversation between the two could be more frank.

No wonder this girl laughed so weirdly and cunningly, and dared to laugh at her.

"That's right, people always have to recognize reality, but reality is different from reality, some people stand tall and see the reality farther, and some people stand in the gutter, and they can only see the two or three inches of territory in front of them. You are a person who understands, and you should ponder the words of this palace. Reasoning, this palace shouldn't have more such mouths, and this palace also looks at your young age, low background, and limited experience, so I kindly remind you a few words. Tong Yao smiled again and said.

Although her experience was similar to Zeng Rong's back then, she was also appointed by the Queen Mother to serve people, and she was also privately appointed for life, but her situation was very different from Zeng Rong's, she served the emperor in order to survive to today's imperial concubine, but Zeng Rong served a crippled prince, and she could only be a side concubine in this life.

Are the two comparable?

There is really no comparison, Zeng Rong also knows this, so he honestly thanked him for coming out.

People are under the eaves, and it is difficult not to bow their heads.

It's just that as the old saying goes, ten years in the east of the river and ten years in the west of the river.

Coming out of Yaohua Palace, Zeng Rong was hesitating whether to go back to Qianning Palace to reply or go back to the Inner Court Bureau to visit Li Ruolan, only to see Amei coming over.

It turned out that Zhu Heng learned that she went to Cining Palace to thank her, and when he saw that she didn't go to see him, he thought that something had happened to her again, so he specially ordered Amei to come to her, and Amei also turned around a lot to find Yaohua Palace.

Zeng Rong didn't go with Amei to see Zhu Heng, just returned to the palace, she didn't want to offend the queen mother, and she didn't want to offend the emperor, after explaining Amei, she hesitated again and again, she still entered Qianning Palace.

As if she guessed that she would come, the eunuch outside the gate stopped her, saying that she should rest for three days first, and then come back to work after three days, as for what work, the little eunuch didn't say.

After turning around and leaving, Zeng Rong went directly back to the Inner Three Institutes, first sorted out the things she brought from the Huanyi Bureau, found paper and pencils, and planned to draw a few patterns in the past three days and send them to the Splendid Workshop.

She has been home several times this month, and she has a more intuitive understanding of Chen's character, and she wants to help her again.

She returned all the maids and daughters that Zeng Rong invited for her before, leaving only the family that served Ah Hua.

In her own words, now that she can live in such a good house, eat well, and do not have to work in the field, this kind of day is like a dream for her, and she does not dare to have other greed, afraid that one day she will wake up from a dream and return to her previous predicament.

Therefore, she refused to use the next person, saying that this little housework was not a matter for her, and that the silver taels that Zeng Rong gave her were saved up to buy land under the expenses of ensuring that Zeng Guixiang and Ah Hua were outside.

The daily expenses of the family are supported by Zeng Fuxiang's salary as a steward, and the two discussed it, saying that they want to strive for a dowry or dowry of 100 acres of land when several younger brothers and sisters get married.

Zeng Rong saw Chen mention this topic, and only then remembered that the second brother is seventeen years old this year, and it is time to say kiss at this age, no wonder the sister-in-law is so saving, Zeng Rong gave her good clothes and a few gold ornaments are all put away, saying that when the second brother says that he can use it, he will spend silver to buy it, and she is a countryman, and she does not go out, and it is good to have a few pieces of cotton cloth in her daily clothes.

Zeng Rong immediately blamed herself when she heard this, she brought them to the capital in the hope that they could stand on their own and live their own lives, and also hoped that they could take care of Ahua a little, but she never meant to put the burden of this family on their shoulders.

She lived out and knew how difficult it was to sell her labor to earn money without ability or craftsmanship.

But for most of the past half a year, because Zhu Heng was also busy herself, she ignored the family, even if she went back to see them, she wouldn't stay long, and her mind was basically spent on Ah Hua, and she cared little about the second brother who lived in the academy.

This time, I heard Chen say that Zeng Guixiang also suffered a lot this year, and it took half a year to jump from Class D to Class C, saying that he was striving to enter Class B at the end of the year and take the children's examination next year.

He himself said that his relatives wanted to wait until he finished the children's exam, and if he could get into the show, he would also have more choices in family affairs, but in this way, the cost of getting married would inevitably be more.

Therefore, Chan will be frugal.

Therefore, Zeng Rong thought about taking over this burden, and didn't want to put so much pressure on the eldest brother.

For two days in a row, Zeng Rong basically didn't go out of the house except for going to the catering bureau for dinner, and in the past two days, in addition to painting, she also read books and practiced calligraphy.

On the third day, she wrapped up the patterns she had drawn together with a few zodiac purses she had made in the Huanyi Bureau, and when she was about to go out, she saw Amei coming again.

This time, Amei came to deliver the letter, saying that Uncle Qin Tuo Jiangnan came in with a message, Ouyang Si entered Beijing yesterday and is currently living in Qian's house.

When Zeng Rong heard this, where could he stay, he hurriedly pulled Amei to Cining Palace, but who knew that Amei took her to the Xuanzhaotai.

When Zeng Rong went up, he happened to see Zhu Heng's back, his head was slightly up, Zeng Rong didn't know if he was looking at the street scene in the distance or the blue sky above his head, but he could feel the loneliness reflected in his back.

Zeng Rong waved his hand to Xiao Luzi and Xiao Haizi who were guarding the staircase, walked lightly to the back of the wheelchair, squatted down, and kept it at the same height as Zhu Heng.
