Chapter 219: Sweet Mustard
Qiao Xiang took the pastries she had made and came to the main hall, and as soon as Qiao Xiang entered the door, she saw Zhao Concubine holding a notebook, looking at it very boringly.
Qiao Xiang saw Yun Yao's figure today and felt different from usual, this is not to say that Yun Yao has changed anything, but Qiao Xiang's own psychological effect.
Qiao Xiang couldn't help but be more cautious about Yun Yao than before because of what Mama Bai told her about Concubine Zhao, all of this was the charm of that queen's position.
Qiao Xiang hurriedly stepped forward and said: Niangniang, the slave maid has made some new pastries, Niangniang will try it to see if it is with your appetite.
Yun Yao heard Qiaoxiang say this, and suddenly became interested. He put down the notebook in his hand and looked at the pastries brought by Qiaoxiang. Yun Yao picked up a piece of pastry with interest and tasted it, and said: Qiaoxiang, your cooking skills are really getting better and better, since this palace is pregnant, if it weren't for you by your side in this palace, this palace would have to suffer!
Qiao Xiang said with a smile when she heard this: The master knows how to make fun of the slave and the maid, and the slave and the maid still know how many catties and taels the slave and the maid are, and only the master coaxes the slave and the maid.
Yun Yao heard this and said: How can this palace coax you, when you look at the face of this palace, you will be forced to be fed by you.
Speaking of this, Yun Yao was a little complaining, both ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign women, are very keen on losing weight, Yun Yao saw that her figure began to be out of shape, and it was inevitable that she felt that she was too depraved!
Qiao Xiang inevitably felt a little funny when she heard Yun Yao's complaints, so she persuaded: Niangniang should be for the little master, and when Niangniang gives birth to the little prince, Niangniang will naturally be able to lose weight, so there is no need to be so anxious.
Even though Qiao Xiang has a very bad temperament, but after so many days of getting along with Yun Yao, Qiao Xiang still likes to serve such a master very much, and Yun Yao can feel it. Of course, it is also because of this that Qiao Xiang can be trusted by Yun Yao, otherwise, Yun Yao is not a fool, how can she let Qiao Xiang serve her.
So Yun Yao also revealed her true nature in front of Qiaoxiang!
Yun Yao didn't have any image at all in front of Qiaoxiang, a familiar person, and saw that she was about to pick up the notebook with her hand that had taken the pastry, Qiaoxiang saw the green tendons on her forehead, and hurriedly stopped Yun Yao's movements, picked up a handkerchief and wiped Yun Yao's hand carefully, and said: Master, you are a little too sloppy, what if you are seen by the emperor?
Yun Yao smiled when she heard this: Isn't there still you and Caiyu! With the two of you here, why do you need to think about these in this palace?
Qiaoxiang didn't look happy. Yun Yao was curious why Qiao Xiang didn't speak, turned her head to look at Qiao Xiang and asked, "Qiao Xiang, what's wrong with you?"
Qiao Xiang smiled a little, and when she heard Yun Yao ask, she hurriedly said: The slave maid thought of other things just now, and she didn't hear what the master said, so please forgive the master?
Qiao Xiang's mood was really good at first, but when she heard Yun Yao talk about Caiyu again, Qiao Xiang felt uncomfortable.
Speaking of Qiaoxiang and Caiyu, they have known each other for a long time, they are both minions in Ma Jia's mansion, but Qiaoxiang coincidentally became a member of the secret guard, but Caiyu is different, Caiyu's parents are the sons of Ma Jia's house, and when Ma Jia's family married to Niu Hulu's family, he followed Ma Jia's family as a dowry. Therefore, Ma Jia's family inevitably relied more on Caiyu, and if Qiaoxiang didn't have good cooking skills, Ma Jia's family had no intention of letting Qiaoxiang follow Yun Yao at all.
Ma Jia's family, as Yun Yao's mother, will naturally think about Yun Yao's whole, in Ma Jia's view, the most important thing for his daughter's slave is not ability, but loyalty. The deeds of Caiyu's family are in the hands of Ma Jia's family, and Ma Jia's family does not have to worry about Caiyu's loyalty.
But Qiaoxiang is different, the reason why Qiaoxiang entered Ma Jia's solid line at the beginning was because Qiaoxiang was sold to Ma Jia's mansion at the beginning, Qiaoxiang was alone, without worry, who knows if she will be bought, no one is at ease, let alone Ma Jia's.
Ma Jia's motherly heart Qiaoxiang doesn't understand, in her opinion, she is much better than Caiyu, but Ma Jia's and Yun Yao and others all fancy Caiyu, Qiaoxiang is secretly proud of herself doing things for the emperor, it can be seen that Caiyu is a stupid person who can be on an equal footing with her, and even a head above him, how can Qiaoxiang be willing?
However, in order to make Ma Jia's and Yun Yao valued, Qiaoxiang deliberately befriended Caiyu, but in fact, Qiaoxiang looked down on Caiyu at all, which is why Qiaoxiang did not question Mama Bai at all, you must know that Qiaoxiang is not a fool, how could Qiaoxiang not suspect Mama Bai's intentions, but Qiaoxiang was full of malice towards Caiyu, and did not pay attention to the truth of Mama Bai's order at all, and directly framed Caiyu.
Originally, Qiao Xiang would inevitably feel a little guilty about Yun Yao when she framed Caiyu, because Qiao Xiang also knew that there could be no chaos around Yun Yao at this time, otherwise someone would take advantage of the loophole to harm Yun Yao.
But when she heard Yun Yao compare Caiyu's idiot to her, the little guilt in Qiao Xiang's heart disappeared.
Yun Yao didn't know that Qiao Xiang thought so, otherwise Yun Yao would have let Qiao Xiang get out a long time ago.
Yun Yao had also discovered Qiao Xiang's abnormality before, and because of Qiao Xiang and Caiyu's appearance in front of her, Yun Yao had already known that there was a big problem between her two palace maids.
But then Caiyu didn't have any feelings for Qiaoxiang, which made Yun Yao start to think of Li Dequan's reminder, and Yun Yao also began to suspect Qiaoxiang.
It's just that Yun Yao also misses the old love in the end, thinking that Qiao Xiang didn't have any ill will towards her, so Yun Yao also knocked on Qiao Xiang just now, but Yun Yao found that she just mentioned Caiyu, which made Qiao Xiang have such a big reaction, which made Yun Yao's heart sink hard.
To be honest, Yun Yao didn't want to get involved in the matter between Caiyu and Qiaoxiang, and the master personally went out to pull the shelf, which would not be beneficial to the relationship between them in the future.
And Yun Yao can be very sure that the two palace maids around her have not harmed her, and Yun Yao does not want to doubt these two palace maids. But Yun Yao was at a critical moment at this time, and naturally she didn't want to let there be civil strife around her.
Yun Yao knew that she had to make a decision when she understood this.
Yun Yao was about to mention the contradiction between her and Caiyu, but Qiaoxiang probably seemed to notice something, so she changed the topic and said: Master, the slave maid has something to ask for Niangniang.
Yun Yao has always been generous to the minions, so she was not angry at Qiao Xiang's words. Said: Qiaoxiang, what do you ask for this palace?
Qiaoxiang replied: Niangniang, the slave and maid recognized an aunt in the palace, and the slave maid and aunt heard that our Yongshou Palace was going to enter new people, so she automatically asked the slave and maid to help, saying that she wanted to serve Niangniang. And the slave can guarantee that the slave aunt is not a pawn of the other people in the harem, and she will not harm the mother!
Yun Yao listened to Qiaoxiang's words, looked at her fixedly for a while, and then Yun Yao said: This palace has written it down, you call her to this palace when you arrive, if there is nothing wrong, this palace will agree to your request.
Qiao Xiang was a little frightened by Yun Yao's gaze at her, but when she heard Yun Yao's tone that was equivalent to agreeing, Qiao Xiang instantly became happy.
