Chapter 7: The Friendship of the Aunts

"Auntie, you dissipate your anger, don't smash these, but they are all good objects." In the room, Mama Xiao dissuaded Xiao Qingqing, who was furious.

Xiao Qingqing, who was angry, how could he be easily persuaded? "How can I not be angry, look at the east side. The prince is about to take the girl out of the favored sky, and she wants to give her, but the prince is confused. ”

"I can't help it, auntie, you can't talk nonsense. If you are listened to by outsiders, you go, and you make trouble in front of the prince, this is not a joke. ”

Seeing the group of people kneeling on the ground, Xiao Qingqing could only put away his temper.

"Alright, get up, a bunch of guys who are greedy for life and afraid of death." Xiao, who finally managed to contain his anger, sat down gently.

"Okay, let's do whatever we want. Qing'er brought a basin of water for her aunt. ”

Mama Xiao sent everyone away, "Auntie, don't blame the slave for being too talkative, there are some things, the slave and maid have to say it at the risk of great disrespect." As she spoke, Mama Xiao peeked at Xiao Qingqing's face and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no change.

"Auntie, you have to think that you are a person from the Marquis Cheng'en Mansion, although you are a concubine, but your aunt can also be on an equal footing with the lady in the Marquis Mansion, in terms of this dignity, you are no worse than the girl under the lady's knees. So, auntie, why don't you show your bearing, don't be like that lowly merchant girl. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Qingqing also remembered her aunt's freedom in the Marquis's Mansion.

"Mama, I also know that what you said is reasonable, but I just can't be angry, obviously the prince used to come to me often, but now ......" Thinking of Gu Qing's favor, Xiao Qingqing couldn't help but worry.

"Well, auntie, you can't say that, you see. In addition to going to Aunt Gu's side and the princess recently, has the prince also been to other aunts' rooms? ”

Xiao Qingqing recalled that in the past few days, except for Yan Ze's visit to the princess once, the rest were either in the office or at Gu Qing's, "In this way, it seems that I haven't been there recently." ”

"So, auntie, you don't need to come out in person for this, just a few words, and someone will rush forward for you." Mama Xiao helped Xiao Qingqing sit down.

Xiao Qingqing finally listened to Mama Xiao's words. In this way, she doesn't need to take action, and she can rectify some people who get carried away. "It's still Mama, you are thoughtful, it was Qingqing who thought about it before."

"Auntie, what are you talking about, the slave and maid share the worries of the Lord, this is a matter of course." Seeing that Xiao Qingqing finally listened a little, Mama Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief, "Come, auntie, the slave maid will freshen up for you, there will be big things to do later!" ”

"Well, that grandma will freshen up for me, and in a little while, we will visit the neighbors."

"Yes."

Xiao Qingqing looked at herself in the bronze mirror, her face was full of youth and temperament that did not belong to her, Xiao Qingqing believed that as long as she made good use of her "capital", she would definitely get what she wanted.

"Auntie, Aunt Xiao came here with someone?"

At this time, it was noon, and Aunt Liu Zihan and Aunt Liu were embroidering flowers in the house, "Please come in quickly, this is not something we can offend." ”

Liu Zihan's father is only a five-grade official, and he can enter the palace only because Yan Ze was running errands in Jiangnan before, and he happened to need someone to serve him, and he happened to live in Liu Zihan's house.

Liu Zihan's father is not a motivated person, and he has not been promoted for many years in his current official position, but on the second day when Liu Zihan was pampered, her father also rose to the official position, so far Liu Zihan understands the benefits of power, she has the heart to confront her, but no one is willing, if this Xiao Qingqing comes, I don't know what is going on.

"I didn't know what to say before my sister came, and my sister didn't come here to prepare anything urgently, so I asked my sister to drink some Biluochun."

It stands to reason that Liu Zihan entered the house a year earlier than Xiao Qingqing, and she is older than Xiao Qingqing, so Xiao Qingqing should call her sister anyway, but Liu Zihan, who has hidden ideas, has to win over Xiao Qingqing no matter what, this title is nothing to her, and it is just a loss.

And it just so happened that this mouth loss really made Xiao Qingqing very useful, look, what if this is more advanced than her? Still have to succumb to her status? Thinking of this, Xiao Qingqing was a little more arrogant than when he first came.

"Well, they're all their own sisters, why bother being so particular, just feel free, sit down!" Xiao Qingqing picked up the teacup, took a sip gently, and continued. "My sister has been here for a few days, but she has never been to my sister's place, yes, my sister's is not. How is my sister lately? ”

Liu Zihan sat down: "Thank you sister for your concern, my sister is fine." I wonder how my sister is doing lately? ”

"What about food, clothing, shelter and transportation? It's all right, it's just ...... Alas, don't mention it. ”

Xiao Qingqing's desire to speak stopped again, which made Liu Zihan have an idea, it seems that this person has something to ask for. Random Liu Zihan contacted the whereabouts of the prince recently.

"Hey, forget it, but there is, the prince hasn't been here for a long time recently. My sister really envy my sister! ”

"Me? What do I have to envy? Xiao Qingqing put down the teacup and continued: "If you want to talk about envy, the Yuyin Courtyard in the east is really enviable. The grace of the day continues, and even the princess Niangniang respects her for three points, you say, is this enviable? ”

Liu Zihan didn't expect that he was deliberately casual, and when he mentioned it, he was really hit by himself, "Let me say, in terms of background, family background, and appearance, my sister is far better than the one in the east." ”

"Well, even if it's better than others, so what? It's not that it can't get the attention of the prince. Only the favor of the prince is real. Speaking of this, Xiao Qingqing's face was sad and confused.

Seeing Xiao Qingqing like this, Liu Zihan had a plan, "No, I want my sister, come and go for my sister, this sorrow!" ”

"Oh? My sister has a good way, if it's something harmful, my sister doesn't dare to do it. ”

"Sister rest assured, leave all this to my sister, you can wait for the prince with peace of mind, come to you!"

"My sister thinks so much about my sister, it really makes my sister feel sorry, don't worry, as long as my sister and I have a trace of love, I won't miss you."

Suddenly, there seemed to be a lot of friendship between the two, and for a while, the people around them couldn't tell the truth from the false, good things, these two in front of them were long-lost sisters.

"Okay, today I patronized and talked to my sister, and I almost forgot the hour, so my sister didn't bother my sister and finished eating. Although the prince usually doesn't come to us, the rules have to wait, what if he picks up a leak? Xiao Qingqing said jokingly. Okay sister, you don't have to send me, you can hurry up, finish dinner and rest early. ”

"Okay, I'll be a guest at my sister's place another day, and my sister must welcome me." Liu Zihan helped Xiao Qingqing to the door.

Xiao Qingqing thought about it and said yes, and then left with Mama Xiao.

"Auntie, why do you have to have a good relationship with Aunt Xiao in such a low voice, obviously you came first, but she called you sister, it's really funny. Although she has no identity, she is taller than you, but when she enters the palace, she has to abide by the rules of the palace, and this person is really not a rule-abiding person. ”

Remembering Xiao Qingqing's arrogant face just now and the appearance of looking down on people, Liu Zihan's maid was upset for her aunt. "Oh, auntie, did you listen to me? What are you still laughing at? ”

"Silly girl, don't you know that this is our chance, what does it matter if she takes advantage of a little bit of her mouth? I can't do without a piece of meat, but I can get a lot of benefits, why not? ”

Liu Zihan sat in front of the dresser, looking at the handsome face in the mirror, she used to have the same arrogance as Xiao Qingqing, but now she had to bow her head.

"You wait and see, the bow now is just to pave the way for the future, and the road in the future is still long, maybe when, I will be promoted?"

"But auntie, does this have anything to do with Xiao Qingqing who came today?" The maid was still puzzled.

"It has a relationship, this has a lot to do with it, with Xiao Qingqing's connections and strength, don't I just pave the way for myself to be better in the future?"

"Aunt Xiao's ...... there"

"She's just looking at Gu Qing in the east unpleasantly, to be honest, even if she can't find me, I'm ready to start, it's better to have more allies now. Gu Qing's days of favor are a little too long, it's time to rest and rest. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Zihan's eyes darkened, he has been in the palace for more than a year, and it is rare to think that Gu Qing is so favored, but it is not nothing, the one that was dealt with before was not forgotten for a long time. This is just a step ahead, until it is forgotten by everyone.

At this end, Xiao Qingqing also returned to his yard.

"Auntie, can the slave go find a vase and put this flower on the table?" Qing'er happily took out the flowers she had just picked in the garden.

Xiao Qingqing also nodded in a good mood, "Go ahead, take out my blue and white porcelain jade bottle and put it on the table!" ”

"Yes, auntie, the slave and maid will go now." Qing'er was blessed and retreated.

"Mama, you said that I just said so much, did she understand what I meant?" Thinking of the conversation just now, Xiao Qingqing felt that he didn't seem to have expressed what he meant correctly, thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Mama Xiao took off Xiao Qingqing's hairpin, spread her hair, and gently combed it with a horn comb. "Auntie, don't worry. According to the slave maid, that Aunt Liu is also a one-point person, and she will definitely be able to do what you think. If you think about her kind of submissive look just now, you can understand. ”

Xiao Qingqing recalled Liu Zihan's stammering look just now, a little disgusted, and a little proud. "Well, that's for the best. Let's clean up, eat something and sleep, the prince won't come over anyway. ”

"Yes. Auntie, the slave and maid will give the order. ”
