Chapter Seventy-Three: Jealousy
In the small courtyard, there are only two henchmen, Qingyan and Chunlan.
said that they were personal maids, but in fact, Hotaru regarded them as intimate sisters and friends.
Rubbing her forehead, Yingyue got straight to the point and said: "Today in the Taishi Mansion, the little marquis of our family looked at Miss Ning Er's eyes straight, and he favored her very much, the ancients did not deceive me, men are animals who are easily deceived by women's appearance." ”
After saying it in a huff, Hotaru Moon was jealous when she thought of that picture.
After hearing this, Chunlan chuckled: "Madam, why do you think so, it's not the first day you have known Master Hou." ”
"Wasn't it the first day that prevented me from seeing his true colors?" Hotaru pouted.
Shaking her head slightly, Chunlan had another understanding.
"The slave maid thinks that the little marquis is not the kind of superficial person, although Miss Ning Er is pure and lovely, but she can't even compare to Miss Ning, let alone compare with Madame's appearance. Madame think about it, the little marquis often has a cold face even for a beautiful woman like Madame, and for Miss Ning Er, she probably really pities her for her poor background and it is not easy to live in the Taishi Mansion, right? Men are easy to sympathize with the weak, which is called pity and cherishing jade. ”
Thinking of the scene that happened during the day, Chunlan couldn't help but feel sorry for Ning Fengyue, she had also experienced the scene when her master was left out because she was not favored, it was really uncomfortable!
Besides, if it weren't for Ning Shuyao's bullying behind her back, Ning Fengyue would be the one who was famous in the city.
Who wouldn't feel distressed about such a lovely person?
When Firefly Yue heard this, her heart was even more angry: "Go to his pity and cherish the jade!" It's clear that it's the intention to see the color! ”
Nodding wildly, Qingyan said, "The slave maid thinks that this Miss Ning Er's methods are not simple. ”
Glancing back to make sure there was no one, Qingyan whispered the news she had heard.
"The slave maid listened to the maids of the Taishi Mansion say that this concubine was originally a concubine and his colleagues in the Qinglou, but the man accidentally made the fake come true when he was acting on the spot, so she had her, you think about it, her mother is such a scheming person, she may have learned a few points from her mother."
Frowning, Chunlan was a little disliked for Qingyan talking about people behind her back, and said coldly: "What kind of mess is this, look at how pitiful Miss Ning Er is, how can someone still arrange this behind her back?" ”
At the end of the day, it's compassion that overflows.
Qingyan, who was said, was very unconvinced and choked: "These are all true, they are internal news in the Taishi Mansion, if it weren't for the slaves and maids to deal with them with delicious food today, they would still not say it." ”
"Qingyan, is there anything else?" Hotaru asked with interest.
"I heard that Mrs. Ning has always disliked Miss Ning Er, and there is even a rumor that the origin of the name Ning Fengyue is to ridicule Ning Fengyue's mother for being born in the Fengyue Field. On weekdays, I also asked Mr. to teach me to practice piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc., but it was all thanks to Ning Fengyue's willingness to learn, if Mrs. Taishi really scolded them, then Ning Fengyue's talent would not be so good. Qingyan told everything he had heard.
Hearing this, Hotaru raised her eyebrows and said, "Mrs. Ning, she is not the kind of person who will criticize a concubine, on the contrary, she is very straightforward and disdainful of playing that kind of trick." ”
"That's right, I'm afraid that those people in the mansion will be bullied if they look down on people." Chunlan sighed in a low voice.
Keeping her head down and not saying a word, Hotaru frowned and didn't know what she was thinking.
Seeing this, Qingyan and Chunlan glanced at each other.
Qingyan said: "Madame doesn't have to think so much, what kind of woman hasn't seen a powerful, rich and smart person like Hou Ye?" How could he be seduced by her so easily. ”
"Yes, ma'am, what Qingyan said is not unreasonable. After all, just talking about the face, the little Hou Ye himself is plump and handsome, and they all say that they are ugly to pick and choose, maybe the little Hou Ye himself is perfect, so a good-looking face does not work in the little Hou Ye. ”
The two maids say a word to me, but in the end they stand on the same front.
The more she listened, the more upset she became, looking at her unfamiliar but beautiful face in the mirror, she was in a trance for a while.
muttered to herself: "Ning Fengyue wants to be born without a background, if she wants to look without a look, perhaps, the little marquis is different from other men, and he has taken a fancy to other people's genuine talents?" ”
In addition to this, she couldn't think of any other reasons why Xie Jingyuan liked her.
After all, if you want to talk about her appearance, her nails gently scratch her cheeks, Hotaru secretly thought to herself, in fact, she is not bad.
"What about being talented, she can't compare to Madame at all, you have only taken a month to make everyone in the capital remember you and know how powerful you are, how can she Ning Er do it?" Qingyan, as the No. 1 fan of Firefly Moon, saw that she was so unconfident and busy.
Amused by Qingyan's tone, Hotaru looked back at her, "Am I really that good?" I'm embarrassed to be complimented by you. ”
"Of course, not only Qingyan thinks, but the slave also thinks that Madam, your ability is incomparable to all the ladies in the capital, and let such a smart and lovely person in the family like a concubine who is only empty and talented, or not favored, Hou Ye's vision is not so bad!" Chunlan also followed and stood in her camp and spoke for her.
"When you say that, I feel that no one is worthy of me." Tsundere raised her chin, and Hotaru couldn't help but joke narcissistically.
Seeing that she finally smiled, the two maids breathed a sigh of relief.
"Actually, I don't care what he does, and I don't care very much, after all, one day I will leave the Hou Mansion and set up my own door, when the time comes, I will be beautiful alone, rich and rich, is it better than now?" Picking up the wooden comb, Hotaru said as she brushed the ends of her hair.
Thinking of this, she suddenly brightened.
It was not the first time that the two maids had heard her say this, no matter what she wanted to do, they all agreed, and decided that they would definitely leave with her, no matter how difficult the days were, they would not leave her side.
"Alright, let's go back and wash up and get ready to rest." Turning her head to look at them, Hotaru said, "You've all been busy all day, I don't have anything to do here." ”
"Yes, the slaves and maids will go down first."
Blessed with a blessed body, the two maids withdrew.
Hotaru took off her hair and lay comfortably on the bed with her underwear on, drowsy.
"The marriage of the benefactor was a thousand years ago."
"Tick-" There was a sound like falling water, and Hotaru suddenly remembered that in modern times, she had gone to a temple with her friends to offer incense, and when she came out, she met a monk who said this to her very strangely.
Before falling asleep in a daze, she hummed and chirped: "Just say that bald donkeys are lies, I think I am destined to be single for life." ”
