Chapter 367: I can't think about it
Early in the morning, when the sky was still dark, the sleeping people in the palace had not yet woken up.
And the palace maids and maids have left the bed early in the morning and started a new day's work. Although they also want to continue dreaming in the bed, they are not the masters in the end, so they naturally can't compare with them.
It was still early in the morning, and beside the tall eaves, layers of mist still shrouded the place, and the distant scenery was faintly visible, but it was not very clear, and the sun had not yet risen.
Although the palace maids have already put on thick palace clothes, even they are unable to resist the cold of the winter morning. They can only take a few breaths at the cold hands, rub them, and warm their fingers before they can continue to start their work.
In the laundry room, the palace maids were carrying a large bucket of water, ready to pour it into the large wooden basin. Yes, there are so many clothes in the laundry room that can't be held in a barrel at all. One thick garment after another, after being stained with water, sank even more. A piece of clothing, originally in the summer, the palace maids could naturally lift it easily.
Nowadays, the heavy winter clothes of the masters are very absorbent, and if you want to wring it out, you need at least two palace maids to work together to wring out the moisture in it. Therefore, once the winter came, the number of people in the laundry room had to be increased, and some people had to be transferred from other laundry rooms in the palace.
Wherever there is a need for additional manpower, there are people to be stuffed.
Su Wanyue sat in a corner, although she was wearing the same thick clothes as the palace maid, but in her eyes, she was not a palace maid after all, and she had been living a fine life before. The clothes of this palace maid can hardly block any wind.
Moreover, in this cold winter, I have to wash clothes outdoors, and the cold wind blows people's faces, and it hurts.
Su Wanyue's originally beautiful little face is even more pale at the moment, and in this laundry room these days, she is almost unable to eat or dress, and her whole person has lost a lot of weight. It looked like she was getting weaker and weaker, as if a gust of wind was blowing, and she would be blown down at any moment.
Su Wanyue would never have dreamed that one day she would become like this. But right now, that cheap woman is pregnant, even if she is fake, at least Brother Qian will not have the extra energy to help him now. Or, that woman wouldn't give Brother Qian a chance to come to her at all.
When Su Wanyue thought of this, what she had been unable to figure out all along, suddenly came to her senses.
I see, why did Feng Xihua pretend to be pregnant, she must be afraid, after Brother Qian came back, her anger had all disappeared. Since this is the case, he will definitely let himself out, return to the second prince's mansion, and get the love of Brother Qian. That woman must have been afraid that she would take away the favor she had so hard to snatch from her.
If you want to keep Brother Qian's favor, what is the best way? It has to be pregnant.
Only in this way can it be taken for granted that Brother Qian is willing to be by her side, and he can't remember her Su Wanyue's existence at all. In that case, how could he come to himself? I can only keep doing hard and tiring work in this broken laundry room, starving and freezing every day, and I can't sleep well at night.
If it goes on like this, she Su Wanyue will really go crazy.
Feng Xihua must be because of this, so he will deceive Brother Qian at all costs. Su Wanyue thought of this, and all the doubts in her eyes dissipated.
Hmph, Feng Xi Painting, it seems that even if I'm not here, I'll still be a threat to you, right? Even if I'm relegated to the laundry room now, I'm still the thorn in your heart that will never be removed. No matter what, I will always have a place in Brother Qian's heart, which you will never be able to surpass!
As if she had found the best reason for her own situation and Feng Xihua's thoughts, with this so-called breakthrough, Su Wanyue completely convinced herself. She never thought that in fact, people didn't take her seriously at all. And all of this is just her thoughts.
But as stubborn as Su Wanyue, how could she be willing to believe this fact? She's just been making a fool of herself.
After Su Wanyue figured it out, the bone-chilling wind didn't seem to be so cold. She sat in her small chair, her eyes full of pride, and the corners of her mouth showed a smile that could not be hidden.
A small palace maid next to her was passing by with a basin of water, and when Leng Buding saw the sad smile on the corner of Su Wanyue's mouth, she couldn't help but shudder and was startled.
What's going on with this Su Wanyue? Obviously, they have been relegated to the laundry room, and I heard that the current second princess is also pregnant now, and the relationship with the second prince is good. Why can she still laugh when she arrives in such a field? Could it be that she's gone crazy?
The little palace maid thought about it and felt that this matter was very likely. She glanced at Su Wanyue with some fear, and then hurriedly left with her own basin. This kind of crazy woman, it's better to stay away from her, so as not to get into trouble.
Su Wanyue was still immersed in her own world, and it took a long time for her to come back to her senses.
Looking at the clothes still covered with foam in front of her, Su Wanyue's eyes were stained with a trace of coldness. Feng Xihua, you dare to do this to me, how could I, Su Wanyue, let you go? What's more, you dare to openly deceive Brother Qian now, such a big crime is even more intolerable. She must expose the true face of that!
Su Wanyue's eyes were gloomy, thinking fiercely, what should she do to immediately reveal the true face of this cheap woman.
She had apparently forgotten that the person who deceived others in the first place was actually herself. However, in the eyes of a woman like Su Wanyue, everything she does is just for herself, and she can find a reasonable excuse to excuse herself, and she doesn't care about others at all.
Approaching noon, at this time, the sky has already brightened, and the warm winter sun has risen to the top of the mountain, in this cold winter, do their best to do their best.
In the laundry room, the palace maids who were shivering in the cold wind and still washing their clothes have almost taken off their thick coats at this moment, wearing only a simple pullover, and continue to do the work in their hands quickly. Now that the sun is shining, they are all sweating, and some palace maids have even hung a few drops of crystal sweat on their foreheads.
But they have long been accustomed to all this, so they sit up and work very easily, except for Su Wanyue.
Today's Su Wanyue is different from the usual her. The palace maids around who were already familiar with Su Wanyue's temperament all thought so.
Su Wanyue, who is on weekdays, has long complained here. Why did she wash so many clothes, why was the water so cold in winter, and her hands were red from the cold...... As soon as she started working, the palace maids next to her could always hear endless complaints.
Over time, almost no one around Su Wanyue would be willing to approach. Because everyone doesn't like to hear others complain, as long as Su Wanyue speaks, they all hide away.
Today's Su Wanyue is surprisingly quiet. Although she didn't do much work as usual, the strange thing was that she didn't say a word, which really didn't look like her style.
But if you can hear Su Wanyue speak, for those palace maids, this is definitely not a bad thing. On the contrary, they are very happy about it. It's like a person who does evil all day long, and all of a sudden he goes to do good deeds.
Despite this, no one was willing to talk to Su Wanyue. They better work hard, and if they have anything to do with this woman, what good will it do them?
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that now that the second princess is pregnant, the second prince is very baby, who will remember that there is a Su Wanyue in this laundry room? What's more, the identity of the second princess of the family does not know how many times more noble than this Su Wanyue.
No matter how powerful Su Wanyue's methods are, she is just a concubine after all, and she can't be on the stage at all. And this time she was demoted to the laundry room, isn't it also because she has exhausted her organs? It can only be said that she lifted the stone herself, shot herself in the foot, and blamed no one.
This kind of woman does not deserve the sympathy of others at all.
After noon, it was time for the palace ladies to eat. Before that, the palace maids have a little time to clean up first.
After a quarter of an hour, everyone started to eat on time, and Mo Niang also appeared in the laundry room. The ladies had now cleaned up and sat down at the table, waiting for the daily lunch. For them, this not only means that they can get a temporary rest, but also tells them that the day's work is half over.
Mo Niang looked at the little girls who were a little elated, a trace of gentleness flashed in her eyes, she looked around, and soon found that there seemed to be one less person in the crowd today.
"Are you all here?" The general rule is that when everyone is here, you can start cooking. Because it was lunchtime, everyone had been hungry after a busy morning, so it was rare for someone to be late or absent.
After all, people are iron and steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry.
Hearing Mo Niang ask like this, those palace maids all looked at each other, looked around each other, and found that each other's good sisters were there, who was missing?
But Mo Niang's question means that there must be some of them who have not yet appeared. Who is it, they haven't shown up for so long, and their hungry stomachs are starting to growl. Some palace maids who couldn't hold back couldn't help but ask out loud.
"Mo Niang, who didn't come? Are you unwell and don't eat with us? ”
Mo Niang shook her head and denied the little girl's guess.
"I haven't heard anyone here tell me she's not feeling well."
Those palace maids were a little dazed, the little palace maid who was carrying the wooden basin this morning, after looking around, suddenly opened her mouth and said: "Mo Niang, I know, it was Su Wanyue who didn't appear!" ”
When everyone heard the little palace maid say this, they also looked around, and suddenly woke up. Yes, Miss Su Wanyue, who eats most actively on weekdays, didn't appear at the table at this moment, isn't it too unusual?
When Mo Niang heard Su Wanyue's name, she couldn't help frowning slightly. This woman can't be doing anything again, right? Since Su Wanqing told herself before, let herself take a good look at Su Wanyue, Mo Niang, as a subordinate, naturally can't sit idly by.
Anyway, Su Wanyue is still in this laundry room now, isn't she? Since it is your own territory, losing someone on your own territory is not such a simple thing to solve.
"You find someone and go to Su Wanyue's room to see if she is in the room."
Those palace maids looked at each other again, and wanted to go to Su Wanyue, thinking of her face, they really didn't want to. But if she doesn't come, everyone won't be able to eat.
Therefore, after a few seconds, a few hungry maids volunteered to raise their little hands, indicating that they were going to find Su Wanyue.
Mo Niang waved her hand, and a few of them trotted out in the direction of Su Wanyue's room.
Although the other palace maids were a little unhappy in their hearts, no one had moved the chopsticks first, even if the food in front of them continued to exude fragrance, which made them feel a little unbearable.
But rules are rules after all, and in this laundry room, if you don't follow the rules, it will not do anyone the slightest benefit.
It's not because they don't follow the rules that Mo Niang will punish them. On the contrary, Mo Niang takes great care of them, and her attitude on weekdays is not at all like a person in charge, and her attitude towards them is always very friendly.
Therefore, the palace maids in the laundry room all respect Mo Niang very much and are very willing to listen to her. All of this was won by Mo Niang relying on her personality charm, and it has nothing to do with the so-called rules.
They didn't have to wait long, and the little palace maids had already trotted all the way back. When they ran in front of Mo Niang, they were still a little out of breath, but the expressions on their faces at this moment were completely different from the beginning.
Several little palace maids had horror on their faces, and one of them was still holding something tightly in their hands. While handing the things in her hand to Mo Niang, she said with horror: "Mo Niang, this was found in Su Wanyue's room, she is not in the room, I don't know where I went." We found this in her room, take a look, is Su Wanyue unable to think about it and go to do something stupid? ”
As soon as the little palace maid's words came out, everyone was shocked. Su Wanyue can't think about it, do stupid things? What's going on?
Mo Niang's brows, which were originally slightly frowned, were even deeper at the moment. She stretched out her hand and took the thing from the little palace maid's hand
It was a crumpled piece of paper.
Mo Niang gently unfolded the paper, and a few red words on it read: "I, Su Wanyue, know that I have done many things wrong and cannot make up for it." This evening moon has found a way to redeem herself, if she can't meet Brother Qian again, at least here, she can solemnly apologize to Brother Qian, and also say a word of cherishment. I'm sorry, Brother Qian, see you in the next life, I wish you happiness. Words: Your Moon"
After reading this letter, Mo Niang's face was so heavy that it was almost dripping.
When the little palace maid who spoke at the beginning heard the contents of the letter, something flashed in her eyes, and she immediately spoke: "No wonder this morning, when I saw Su Wanyue, I felt that something was wrong with her. Why is it so quiet for a person who is usually so noisy? Could it be because she ......" The little palace maid didn't continue, but what she wanted to say was self-evident.
There had never been such a thing in the laundry room, and everyone looked in the direction of Mo Niang, a little at a loss, not knowing what to do.
Mo Niang grabbed the paper in her hand, and it became more and more crumpled.
After a while, Mo Niang sighed, and then said: "I'm going to bother you today, today's lunch is postponed, go find out Su Wanyue first, she must not have an accident in the laundry room." If she really did something stupid, we still have time to stop it, go ahead! ”
Mo Niang's voice was rarely added with a hint of sternness, and she could vaguely feel a momentum.
At this moment, those palace maids thought that Su Wanyue was doing something stupid in a corner, and they all forgot that they were hungry, so they quickly got up from their chairs, and ran out in a swarm.
The laundry room is not particularly wide, but the number of palace maids is also limited, so it still takes a little time to find someone.
After the palace maids all went out, Mo Niang also followed closely and walked out. The master asked her to stare at Su Wanyue, how could Su Wanyue have an accident at this moment. And even if something happens, it shouldn't be in the laundry room.
Such a crime, even if she is Mo Niang, I am afraid she can't afford it.
Anyway, although Su Wanyue is indeed demoted to the laundry room now, she is also the woman of the second prince. I don't know which day, the second prince's anger will disappear, and the emperor will turn the matter over, and Su Wanyue will go out of this laundry room.
When the time comes, she can't afford this big crime.
Mo Niang thought like this, and her eyebrows couldn't stretch no matter what. Now the top priority is to find Su Wanyue first. It wouldn't be a bad thing if we could send this plague god away.
After all, Su Wanyue stayed in the laundry room, although it was a very serious punishment for her. But for the laundry room, for those palace maids, isn't this a kind of torture? A woman like Su Wanyue has no kindness at all, and the palace maids in the laundry room are originally simple-minded, if they are taught by Su Wanyue, this is not what Mo Niang wants to see.
Mo Niang took a few steps outside, and the sunlight outside was still so dazzling. Mo Niang narrowed her eyes slightly and looked in the direction where the palace wall extended.
However, with Su Wanyue's temperament, is she a woman who can't think of it? She is so precious about her own life, how can she bear to do something stupid?
Mo Niangwu thought to herself, a little palace maid had already hurried over.
"Mo Niang, I found it, I found Su Wanyue!"
