Chapter 8 If you want to nourish your life, you have to praise your mother first
After sleeping all night, Zheng Wanyan woke up naturally the next day, which was also a habit she developed when she was in the countryside, and after inviting a maid to dress her up, she brought a gift prepared in advance and prepared to go to Ziyunzhai, that is, the main courtyard of Xiangye, to say goodbye to her father and mother.
When they arrived at Ziyunzhai, it was not yet dawn, and Mama Zhu and Director Liu were guarding the gate of the courtyard, and they were quite surprised to see Zheng Wanyan coming.
"Eh, Miss, you came so early to say hello. Xiangye went to the court, but Mrs. hasn't gotten up yet. Mama Zhu hurriedly stepped forward and greeted.
"Mama Zhu is early, Wanyan has just returned to the house, and she doesn't know her mother's habit of getting up in the morning, so Wanyan can only think of this stupid way, come and wait early, and serve her mother." Zheng Wanyan said and walked up the steps, standing by the door with the maids, quietly waiting for the eldest princess to get up.
"The filial piety of the eldest lady is really touching, the dew under the corridor is heavy, and the old slave will bring you a charcoal basin." After that, he asked the maid to bring a charcoal basin.
It's December, the weather is indeed getting colder and colder, Zheng Wanyan doesn't refuse, she is the master, naturally it should be hers, she doesn't need to refuse in a pretentious manner, but falls into the hands of others, saying that she is not atmospheric enough.
"Madame get up" After about half a pillar of incense, the voice of Qiuju, the eldest girl of Ziyunzhai, came from the house, and Zheng Wanyan followed a group of maidservants into the room. The room was full of fragrance and warmth, Zheng Wanyan walked slowly to the dresser, and bowed, "Mother, Wanyan will serve her mother." After that, the agarwood comb in the maid's hand gently combed the eldest princess's hair.
"Wanyan? Why did you come so early" The eldest princess's warm hand gently held Zheng Wanyan's hand, "The hand is so cold, bold slave, it turns out that the eldest lady and your slave are generally waiting outside, if it is cold, how many heads can you drop." The eldest princess suddenly shouted.
"Slave maid / old slave should die, please forgive Madame." All the maids knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Zheng Wanyan saw this battle, and hurriedly curtsied, "Mother, don't be angry, it's Wanyan who is not sensible, Wanyan is afraid of disturbing her mother's sleep, so she is waiting under the porch, and it has nothing to do with them." ”
"Good boy, mother looks at you too well-hearted, a slave is a slave, there is a difference between respect and inferiority, if your mother doesn't teach, if others see it, you must think that your mother deliberately mistreats you." The eldest princess helped Zheng Wanyan up, then turned around and said, "Today, the eldest lady pleads for you, I will spare you once, if there is a next time, I will sell them all, look at the people we don't want, who else dares to ask for you." ”
"Yes, the slave knows her mistake, Mrs. Xie, Miss Xie." After that, a group of maidservants came out, leaving only Mama Zhu and Qiu Ju.
Zheng Wanyan, walked to the eldest princess, and took out a graceful peony flower that she brought, "Mother, when Wanyan was in the countryside, occasionally in the mountains, found a peony flower, very beautiful and moving, Wanyan picked the flowers back, dehydrated, and made this dried flower that never withered. I wish my mother to be like this peony flower, and her beauty will last forever. Don't be disgusted. ”
"Okay, good" The eldest princess put the peony hairpin on the side of her hair, got up and pulled Zheng Wanyan to the hall, with a smile on her face that could not be hidden.
"Wanyan hasn't had breakfast yet, let's use some with my mother."
"Yes, mother" Wanyan is not twisted, there is no woman who does not like to look forever, she is the eldest princess, the dragon and phoenix among the people, she cares about this even more, she has been living in the countryside, she can't get a valuable gift, she wants to please the eldest princess, there is no more suitable gift than this flower, which is why Wanyan chose this gift.
Sure enough, after breakfast, the eldest princess gave her dozens of large and small objects.
She brought things back to the courtyard with great fanfare, and did not shy away from people along the way.
First, she wanted everyone to know that the eldest princess did not treat her poorly because she was the daughter of the former lady, so naturally the subordinates did not dare to despise her.
Second, she wants those who are staring at her to see how happy she is to get these things, how grateful she is to the eldest princess, if the eldest princess has no malice towards her, she will naturally feel that she is a little girl's family and is simple-minded, if the eldest princess has malice towards her, she will also think that she has no heart and is easy to handle, and let her guard down. Kill two birds with one stone, why not.
So Zheng Wanyan happily returned to Sulan Garden, and in the next few days, I thought it would be very moist.
