Lu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, let's start Ming'er, hey...... The food in the big kitchen is really not to my taste, but unfortunately now there is no cook in the yard, which is really annoying! ”

Yingqiu bowed slightly, and said: "The slave maid is going to start the fire, and I just happened to bring some lettuce and raw meat from the big kitchen, and today the slave maid will cook a few delicious side dishes for the lady!" ”

Lu Shi was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "Yingqiu is really a good girl, whether it is a female celebrity chef, she is a good hand, hey...... Thinking about it this way, I really can't bear to let you go, Steward Luo has picked up a good baby, and he must give more dowry! ”

Yingqiu lowered her head, suddenly turned around and ran away, without even saying hello, Lu laughed behind him, and said, "This is so thin-skinned, hehe......"

Mama Du didn't think so, she was really worried in her heart, so she said: "Madam, the slave maid is going to help Yingqiu, I'm afraid she will have to be busy alone for a while before she can start eating!" ”

Lu also felt a little hungry, so he waved his hand and let Mama Du go. Stay alone in the house, thinking about the little Jiujiu in my heart.

Mama Du followed Yingqiu to the small kitchen of Ning Xiangyuan, where there had been no fire for several days, and Yingqiu was still washing, but her face was full of tears.

Mama Du raised her brows and scolded in a low voice: "You girl, why don't you have a serious one?" You are a person who is about to get married, but you are hiding here crying, and you are seen, if you tell your wife, will you still have a way to live? ”

Yingqiu wiped her tears with the back of her hand, but she couldn't stop it at all, and said, "Mama, since you know my thoughts, why do you still let Mrs. marry me to Steward Luo, he can be my father!" ”

"I just know your mind and that's why I did it. You married Steward Luo, so you broke your thoughts, we have followed Mrs. for so many years, don't you still understand her temperament? If I knew that you had such a mind, I would definitely try to kill you, and Mama didn't want you to have an accident! Mama Du lowered her voice and let out an angry anger that hated iron but not steel.

Yingqiu looked at Mama Du and saw that there was no fraud on her face, so she sniffed and said, "But it's good to be rationed to anyone, I just don't want to marry Steward Luo!" ”

Mama Du glared at her and said, "What's wrong with Steward Luo, he followed the old prince earlier, and he also has a lot of prestige in the house, and he has followed the Hou Ye all these years, so he must have a lot of savings, and you will have a good life in the future." How many people have to honor you? ”

Yingqiu was resentful in her heart, and she wanted to yell at Mama Du, but in the end, she couldn't help it, if Steward Luo was normal, how could she torture Mrs. Luo to death, she was afraid that she would become the second Mrs. Luo!

Besides, if she is favored by the Hou Ye, isn't it better than being a housekeeper? When the time comes, there will still be people to call, and money to spend, and if you give birth to a son and a half daughter, you will be able to go out with your children in the future and set up your own door, and you don't have to be someone else's slave for generations!

She has been a subordinate for so many years, and she deeply understands the pathos of subordinates. Whatever the master says is what it is, let alone getting married, even if it is what to eat or use, the master has to agree before he dares to do it. There is no freedom, and you have to give up all your thoughts and think about your master.

If the master is an enlightened and kind person, it's okay, at least he can give the slave a lot of face, and he won't take people out of anger at every turn. Lu's was okay when he was proud, but if something didn't go his way, wasn't it all her and Nuan Dong who came to be a punching bag?

She can't choose, she has become someone else's slave, but she doesn't want her children to continue to be slaves, even if she is a concubine, she is also a master. In the future, no matter who inherits the title, the concubine can get a dowry to marry out, and the concubine of the Hou Mansion can also be the main house if she marries a small portal, or she can be a good official family as a successor.

Needless to say, the son can still get a rich share of the property, set up his own business, take a fame test, and become an official himself, how can he not be a hundred times stronger than a minion?

Yingqiu is not stupid, she can calculate this account clearly, she also believes that she has a way to get Bai Shizu's favor, although it may not last long, but as long as she is guaranteed to give birth to a son and a half daughter, she will concentrate on raising children in the future, if the favor can still be kept forever, she will not force it much.

I made up my mind, so I didn't want to talk to Mama Du, she said too much, and I was afraid that Mama Du would be suspicious and ruin her good things.

Yingqiu sniffed, wiped away her tears, and said: "Mama is a person who has come over, so she naturally understands the careful thinking of our daughter's family, I really can't turn a corner for a while, but I also understand that we have to obey the master's orders as slaves, since Mrs. has spoken, I will obey my fate!" ”

Mama Du saw that she was sincere, and she was also very reasonable, and she felt a lot more relieved. If Yingqiu is willing at this time, she is still a little afraid that she will have other thoughts, so saying this means that even if she is unwilling to do so, she will accept her fate!

She patted Yingqiu's head with satisfaction, and said: "Girl, you will understand in the future, sometimes being a master is not necessarily better than being a slave, following the right person, you will enjoy endless blessings in your life, and if you follow the wrong person, maybe it will be the injustice of a lifetime!" ”

Yingqiu washed and chopped vegetables by herself, but she didn't continue to echo Mama Du. Whether it is a blessing or a sin, she knows it in her own heart, and she doesn't have to tell others.

Starting on the second day, Yingqiu really sent the tonic to the study on time and handed it to Steward Luo, and she just accompanied Steward Luo to say a few words, and then returned to Ning Xiangyuan.

Mama Du stared at her for several days before she was relieved, this girl was well-behaved, without the slightest mistake, and had a good conversation with Steward Luo, she was really a clever ghost.

Yingqiu's matter of sending supplements to the study was finally known by Mu Xinping, although she was not in good spirits these days and had no time to deal with the Lu family, but she still strictly guarded it, as soon as Yingqiu's supplements were sent to Steward Luo, her people would intercept them afterwards and never let Bai Shizu see a single thing.

Although Steward Luo has the intention to help the Lu family, he still can't refute Mu's face, after all, now Mu is the head of the house, and he is favored by the Hou Ye, and he has the trust of the old lady, how can he offend such a celebrity. Naturally, the Lu family would not have known that Bai Shizu had never drunk the tonic she asked to send from beginning to end.

Bai Mu Hibiscus in the Jinlan Garden was still counting the silver sent by the Chu County Palace, and said: "Well, I found that the Princess of Chu County is now smart, and our lion opened her mouth, and she sent the silver over without discount!" ”

"Probably because I don't want to make extraneous branches, this little bit of silver is nothing to the wealthy Chu County Palace, it's better than the master, you go to sue her for deliberately murdering the county lord, and the old lady's injury, break the wealth and avoid disasters, and a little brain knows how to choose!" Mama Du gave a reasonable explanation.

When the magpie heard this, he said: "Oh, then should we have less, we should have asked for more if we knew it, and if there is more silver, we will not be able to prickly it!" ”

The mandarin duck poked her head and scolded with a smile: "Look at your shallow eyelids, who have you learned now, such a wealth obsessed mind?" ”

"Hey...... Isn't that what I say, of course it's what our young lady says! The magpie smiled heartlessly.

The mandarin duck said again: "Miss, it's been a few days, and Yingqiu hasn't had a chance to enter the study, should we help her?" I looked at Steward Luo, but I couldn't wait to continue the string! ”

In the past few days, fortunately, Mu Xinping has entangled Bai Shizu, and Steward Luo wants to mention the matter of marrying Yingqiu, but he doesn't dare to be blatant, marrying the girl in Lu's room, then he will obviously offend Mu Xinping. Steward Luo is not stupid, he is waiting for the right time!

Bai Muhibiscus raised his eyebrows and said, "Hmm...... It just so happens that since the flower hall was smashed, it has not been arranged yet, and now the princess of Chu County has lost so much silver, so she naturally has to send someone to buy some good things to fill it, otherwise the old lady is in good health, and she will definitely be sad again when she sees such an empty flower hall! ”

"Slave gets it!" Mandarin duck said, thinking that Yingqiu is also edified, she wants to be an aunt, and her young lady helps, but it's a pity, I don't know who can have the last laugh among the women in the backyard in the end?

Bai Mujin continued: "It's time to go and see my grandmother, and after getting so much silver, I should tell her, lest someone say that I want to monopolize the power of the Hou Mansion!" ”

As he spoke, he got up and took half of the silver ticket to Tangli Garden. Old Madam Bai was still a little weak now, so she could only lean on the soft couch, and when she heard Bai Mujian come to say goodbye, her face became ugly.

said to Grandma Sun: "Let her go back, I don't want to see her, if she doesn't insist on making trouble, how can she hurt me?" Ay...... I think when she was young, I should have let the Lu family ......"

Speaking of this, he glanced at Mu Xinping who was in front of him, and finally shut his mouth, so as not to make Mu Xinping feel sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox. Mama Sun smiled and persuaded: "Old lady, the county lord has come every day since you were injured, but every time you let the slave and maid send her back, but she comes every day, if you keep avoiding it, it seems that you can't say it, why don't you just listen to what she has to say?" ”

Mu Xinping also persuaded: "That's right, old lady, in the end, she is also a member of the Bai family, your granddaughter, no matter how annoyed you are, you can't always see her, we can't be as knowledgeable as her!" As far as the concubine is concerned, you should show your grandmother's majesty, and you should beat her! ”

When Mrs. Bai heard this, she also nodded happily, even if Bai Mujian becomes a princess, isn't she also the granddaughter of the Bai family? How is it possible to go beyond yourself?

So he said: "Then let her in, just listen to how she wants to explain to me the grievances and grievances between her and the princess of Chu County!" ”

Mama Sun nodded to Tourmaline, and Tourmaline hurried out to invite someone, Bai Hibiscus had a calm expression as always, as if so many things had never happened, she was still the good granddaughter who came to Tang Liyuan every day to make tea for the old lady, chatted with her, and listened to her say piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Old Madam Bai also had a moment of trance, seeing that Bai Hibiscus still gave herself a gift as in the past, and did not have the slightest disgrace because of the change of identity, she felt a sense of astringency in her heart for no reason, she couldn't tell if it was regret or what. But she didn't feel for long.

"What are you doing here? I'm fine, I'm not dead yet! Old Madam Bai closed her eyes, looking like she didn't answer.
