CHAPTER XXII
Mei sighed, loosened the wrapped handkerchief, and revealed an ordinary silver skein bracelet, which looked like the usual maid wearing.
Lu Fei jumped up happily, "This is my own bracelet!" ”
The girl's red gold ring bead double buckle bracelet was put into the green jade box by herself, how could it become an ordinary silver bracelet? Mama Zhao's heart sank, she thought of Ye Qian's unusual reaction, and finally came back to her senses a little, and smiled awkwardly, "It turned out to be a misunderstanding, and I bothered the third wife to run away, girl, let's stop today's matter." ”
Ye Qian's black grape-like eyes rolled around Mama Zhao, and shook her head, "I haven't found my bracelet yet, I don't think it will disappear out of thin air." Besides, everything must also be fair, since Lu Fei's box has been searched, then Mama and Bai Zhen's boxes should also be searched. The third aunt and Mama Feng worked hard again. ”
Mei and Mama Feng went out, and the cold sweat on Mama Zhao's forehead flowed, and now, she didn't want to plot against Lu Fei, she just hoped that she was not the one who was plotted.
Soon, Mei Shi and Mama Feng came back, she was holding a bracelet in her hand, and Lu Fei shouted in surprise, "Oh, this is the girl's red gold ring bead double buckle bracelet!" After shouting, she suddenly realized something, and looked at Bai Zhen and Mama Zhao in disbelief.
Bai Zhen knew it in her heart, her face was as usual, and Mama Zhao's fingers trembled.
Mei Shi said sadly, "This bracelet was turned out in Mama Zhao's house. She really doesn't understand, how can a housekeeper be so shallow-eyed, follow Sister Qian'er well, and live for a long time in the future, what a good future, just ruin herself.
"Ah, it turns out that you are a thief shouting to catch a thief!" Lu Fei suddenly realized.
Mama Zhao's face was pale, she had already understood that she wanted to assassinate Lu Fei for some reason was noticed by the girl, but the girl did not make a noise, but planned to do it, but hurt her. No matter who helped the girl set the plan, at least the girl knew it, and with this alone, she would be doomed.
With a "poof", Mama Zhao knelt on her knees, "Girl, your bracelet was taken by the old slave." The old slave saw that the bracelet was exquisite, and wanted to imitate the silver for his granddaughter, and the old slave took the girl's bracelet to the house, and looked at it again and again for a day, but forgot to return it. ”
"Girl." Mama Zhao's eyes were red, and muddy tears flowed down her cheeks, she really regretted it, took two steps on her knees, and grabbed Ye Qian's sleeve with both hands, "The old slave didn't make a mistake on purpose, but he was old and confused, so I beg the girl to bypass the old slave this time for the sake of the old slave's service." ”
Ye Qian lowered her eyes and looked at her hand holding her sleeve, these hands have hugged her many times, right? She sighed, "How to deal with Mama, in fact, what I said doesn't count, I guess Mama herself knows it in her heart, right?" It's just that no matter what, I can't keep my grandmother in this yard. ”
Mei nodded, this Mama Zhao is not the sister-in-law's companion, her deed is in the Hou Mansion, how to deal with it, you have to listen to the second sister-in-law Qi's, or rather, it depends on the old lady's meaning.
"Sister Qian'er, go, the third aunt will accompany you and go to Shou'an Hall to explain this matter clearly." Mei Shi took Ye Qian's hand, and as soon as she held the soft little hand in her palm, her heart trembled, if her child could be born, Sister Qian'er should be the same size, and the little hand should be so soft, right?
The third wife, Mei, took Ye Qian, followed by the trembling Mama Zhao, and went to Shou'an Hall together.
The evidence is ironclad, and the old lady has nothing to say, she glared at Mama Zhao with hatred, if she wanted to say that Mama Zhao really wanted to be greedy for Sister Qian'er's red gold ring bead double buckle bracelet, she didn't believe it, and it was most likely that Sister Qian was countercalculated. So Sister Qian'er has someone around her who is more powerful than Mama Zhao, it shouldn't be Bai Zhen or Lu Fei, could it be Mama Feng sent by King Yu?
"Sister Qian'er, don't be sad," the old lady's arrangement for many years was broken, and she was so angry that she had to squeeze out a smile, "Mama Zhao doesn't like you, let's send her away." ”
Mei frowned, what did the old lady say, what did it mean to send it away if it didn't suit her heart? Mama Zhao is the housekeeper who has taken care of Sister Qian'er since she was born, if it is spread out because she is not sent out according to her wishes, then what has Sister Qian'er become?
"It's not to my liking." Ye Qian said seriously: "It was Mama Zhao who took my red gold ring bead double buckle bracelet, but she didn't tell me, she forgot to return it, and accused Lu Fei of stealing it." Mama herself also said that she is old and a little confused, I think Mama Zhao is not suitable for working anymore, it is better to go home and recuperate. ”
The corners of the old lady's mouth twitched, and Sister Qian avoided the trap in her words, and she didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. Since Mama Zhao is abolished, she should hurry up and arrange for someone else to take over, "Okay, Mama Zhao is also a person with grandchildren, and it's time to rest." In this way, I will discuss with your second aunt and arrange a proper person for you, you are still young, and you can't do it if there is no housekeeper in the yard. ”
Ye Qian's big apricot eyes blinked, she didn't want the housekeeper arranged by the old lady and the second aunt, but there had to be a suitable reason.
Leaving Shou'an Hall, Ye Qian went directly to Yuwang's Mansion.
The people of the Yu Palace's Mansion had already been told by Gonggong Kang that as long as the little princess came, they would take it directly to the prince.
The little chamberlain took Ye Qian to the study in the outer courtyard and let Ye Qian go in directly, but stopped Bai Zhen, who wanted to follow in.
Ye Qian pushed open the door of the study, King Yu sat on the top, and there were four or five people sitting on the chairs on both sides, obviously deliberating.
Ye Qian paused hesitantly, not knowing whether she should go in or close the door and go out.
"Qianqian, come." King Yu stood up and walked towards her with a smile.
As soon as the people sitting on both sides heard the title of King Yu, they knew that it was the little princess who had arrived, and they all quickly stood up, bowed their heads slightly, and looked at their noses and hearts.
Ye Qian ran forward, naturally held King Yu's hand, and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, am I disturbing you?" ”
"Don't bother, Qianqian can come to me at any time." King Yu pulled her and turned around a large bookshelf, which was a small cubicle with a soft couch, which he usually used to rest occasionally.
Ye Qian sat on the soft couch, "Your Highness, I'm waiting for you here, you go to discuss the matter first, and when you finish the discussion, I have something to discuss with you." ”
"No, they can all wait, Qianqian's matter is more important." King Yu poured her a cup of tea," Qianqian said slowly, not in a hurry. ”
Ye Qian took the tea and took a sip, seeing that his beautiful phoenix eyes looked at him with certainty, obviously not planning to leave, so he told him what had happened in his yard in the past few days.
They were separated from the outside only by a large bookshelf, and her soft and glutinous voice was clearly heard in the ears of those waiting outside. What Mama Feng, Mama Zhao, Bai Zhen, Lu Fei, the third wife, all the miscellaneous, everyone actually understood. Hearing it, I couldn't help but secretly speak, when the master faced the little princess, it was like a different person, you must know that they usually discuss matters, and the master does not allow them to speak at length, and everything must be concise and clear. The little princess told the master about the trivial things in the inner house, and the master didn't get tired of interrupting, and interjected from time to time to ask a few words with concern.
"That's it, Mama Zhao will be sent away." Ye Qian finally finished speaking, "But I don't want the housekeeper Mama arranged by the old lady and the second aunt, Your Highness, can I borrow Mama Feng's name, just say that Mama Feng can help me take care of the yard, so that I don't need to be in charge of Mama." Your Highness, rest assured, I didn't really ask Mama Feng to help me, I just used this rhetoric. ”
"What is Qianqian thinking?" King Yu's white jade-like fingers pinched her chubby little face, "My people are Qianqian's people, what does Qianqian want them to do, even if they are told, they don't need to ask me specifically." It's not just Mama Feng, the people in this palace, Qianqian's useful ones, can be used directly. ”
Ye Qian's pink little mouth opened and closed, and finally murmured: "Your Highness...... "How could he be so good, so good that she was at a loss.
King Yu saw the undisguised emotion and trust in her big black grape-like eyes, and his heart was happy, and he pinched her soft little fingers, "Mama Feng will always stay by Qianqian's side, if Qianqian doesn't like it, I'll give Qianqian another one." ”
"No, no, no." Ye Qian shook her head again and again, "Mama Feng is very good." "I was able to keep Lu Fei this time, thanks to Mama Feng.
Back at the Hou Mansion, Ye Qian first went to Mama Feng to discuss it, and then went to Shou'an Hall, refusing the old lady to arrange for her to take care of Mama.
The old lady was unhappy, she had already listened to Mama Zhao tell what had happened, and knew that she had been calculated, and now Sister Qian clearly refused to arrange for Mama to be in charge again, which was obviously out of control. Angry, I can't think of a good way for a while, since King Yu sent someone to slap Sister Rong'er's mouth, the people in the Hou Mansion have an inexplicable awe of King Yu, and the same is true for the old lady, Sister Qian moved out of the Yu Palace, and she really didn't dare to say that it was inappropriate.
"Okay, you're older and have your own ideas, since you don't want to take care of Mama anymore, then I won't assign you anything." The old lady waved her hand, Sister Qian is the future princess Yu, how can she not have her own people around, but she is still young, and it is still early to get married, and this matter can be arranged slowly.
Ye Qian returned to her yard, gathered all the big and small maids, and announced that Mama Zhao would go home to care for the elderly, and Mama Feng would temporarily take over as the housekeeper of the yard in the future.
Lu Fei escaped, knowing that it was Mama Feng who helped her, so she was naturally convinced. Bai Zhen was also secretly glad that Mama Zhao was such a sinister person, and it would be bad sooner or later to stay with the girl.
"Since I am the housekeeper in the girl's yard, it is better for the old slave to go and meet the lady." Mama Feng followed Ye Qian into the house, according to her observations these days, the water in the Hou Mansion is not clear at all, not to mention how the Hou Ye didn't have it back then, even Mrs. Hou's illness is too strange, there are many selfish methods in the inner house, she still has to take a look in person.
"Okay, tomorrow after the etiquette class, let's go over together."
