Chapter 51: Staying overnight
Tongque served Lin Qingwan to wash, twisted the handkerchief in his hand tightly, and drops of water fell from it.
After taking the handkerchief, he made it to the dresser, and his movements were smooth, which looked refreshing and pleasing to the eye, but at this moment there were only two masters and servants in the room, and no one came to enjoy such a beautiful beauty.
"Miss......"
After the bronze bird helped her paint her makeup, she gestured to the golden hairpin in the mirror.
Lin Qingwan pressed his sideburns with his hand, and his complexion seemed to be pretty good today, but the mirror was too blurry, and he could only see a general figure clearly.
"What's the matter?" Tongque, if you have something to say, what are you doing, there are no outsiders here, and you are afraid that I will not be able to eat you?" quipped as always.
And this time, the bronze sparrow did not respond as usual, giggling, with a sad face and grievances in his eyes.
Lin Qingwan raised her eyebrows and didn't look over her shoulders. "What's wrong with you? Who bullied you?"
"Miss, you are the main concubine, but Concubine Lu! The second prince of Chu has been staying at Concubine Lu these days, aren't you in a hurry at all?"
Lin Qingwan smiled and moved his gaze back to the mirror, took a hairpin and gestured it on his head, "I thought it was a big deal, but it turned out that you were wronged for me." There is no need for this, Concubine Lu has just entered the mansion, and the second prince of Chu should accompany her, so what is there to worry about?"
Lin Qingjuan's appearance is that she is a wise and generous wife, but Tongque is angry.
"Miss, this is different!"
"What's the difference about this? Whoever the second son of Chu likes is whose ability, as an insider, what I want to do is to become the second son of Chu's virtuous helper, isn't it? I am jealous all day long, but I will be restless. ”
Lin Qingwan's tone was light, obviously not taking this matter to heart.
Tong Que bit his lip and wanted to say something more, but after seeing that Lin Qingwan obviously didn't care about this matter, he could only hide all his worries, pack up his things and retreat.
chuckled and shook her head, although this girl was really worried about her, but the problem was that her heart was not on Chu Fuyan's body.
Maybe it's a man who is very good in the eyes of all women, but in this world where men can have three wives and four concubines, only by guarding their hearts can they get peace on the side.
She is unwilling to fight with Lu Zhao, not because she is cowardly or otherwise, but because she doesn't want to fight.
Chu Fuyan has been staying at Lu Zhao's place for the past few days, she seems to be used to Chu Fuyan's company during this time, and when she is not accompanied by him, it is difficult to sleep every night.
Once you get into it, it's hard to get out.
And she, for the rest of her life, will be tied here and intrigue for a man, and that kind of life is not what she wants.
Now this kind of life is the best, she sits in the position of the concubine safely, as for who Chu Fuyan wants to marry, she is also happy to marry him, and she can also leave a generous name, there will be no contradictions between the two, how happy.
Lin Qingwan stood up and went to water the flowers and plants, and the days passed plainly and leisurely.
"Mother. ”
Lin Qingwanfu saluted and shouted to the people seated, acting gently, without becoming cowardly or domineering because the princess entered the door, making Shen Qing more satisfied with this daughter-in-law.
beckoned to Lin Qingwan, "Good boy, come and sit down." ”
Lin Qingwan did not refuse, but sat in the seat below, with elegant manners, no different from the days when she got married, with a gentle smile in her eyebrows.
"I'm here to greet you today, the weather has been a little cold in the past two days, and I don't know how your body is, so I made a soup and brought it over, and my mother tasted it. As he spoke, he glanced at the bronze sparrow on the side.
Shen Qing is Chu Ziyi's mother, and she has also taken great care of Chu Fuyan over the years, and Chu Fuyan also respects her very much.
She likes the family style of the Chu family very much, and everyone, including her in-laws, is very gentle.
Shen Qing's expression was kind, he was old, but he had a different charm, he looked at Lin Qingwan and said: "I took the post two days ago, and they all knew that I had a filial daughter-in-law, and I was a little embarrassed to say that I had a good vision." It just so happened that I had some cold that day, but it was much better, and you can be regarded as having a heart, and you can play more when you have nothing to do, and there is no need to come to me every day to say goodbye. ”
The maid on the side took the food box, and when she heard what her lady meant, her subordinates began to set up the dishes and chopsticks in an orderly manner.
Lin Qingwan's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and he said kindly: "My mother is sympathetic to me, I know, but I come to see you more, my heart is also happy, I like to stay with my mother." ”
Shen Qingmei smiled when he said this, and his impression of Lin Qingwan became better and better.
After serving Shen Qing and using the soup, he retired and left here.
Just now, my mother meant that I felt that I was too tired to ask for peace every day, and I didn't have to go again in the future, and I had said this several times, but she still came once every day or two, and every time she came, she would inevitably make her smile at her.
If it is about interests, only by maintaining a good relationship with her in-laws can she gain a firm foothold in this family.
If you talk about feelings, the in-laws of the Chu family are very sensible, she likes to stay with these two old people, anyway, her temperament is very demure, and she doesn't feel bored.
It is also because of these little things in her daily life that the in-laws of the Chu family will maintain her so much.
You must know that if you want to benefit yourself, you must first benefit others.
If she has an average relationship with these two elders, not to mention a princess, even if it is an ordinary woman, she will be excluded.
People's hearts are originally biased.
"Unconsciously I have been with my mother for so long, and it is time for lunch, you go to the kitchen to make a bowl of chilled lily lotus seed soup, I will go back and wait for you first." Lin Qingwan looked at the sun in the sky and said to the bronze bird beside him.
The bronze finch blessed himself and walked towards the kitchen.
It was noon, and the kitchen was busy, so when the bronze bird got there, he said the purpose of coming, so he had to wait a minute.
And this is half an hour.
Lin Qingwan sat on the Luohan bed, drinking water cup by cup, thinking of the taste of chilled lily lotus seed soup, saliva couldn't stop secreting, but waiting left and right, but couldn't wait for the figure of the copper bird.
A hand taps on the table, and the nails collide with the tabletop with a crisp sound.
The other hand supported his chin, and although the clothes on his body were light, they were still very irritable in this day, and a nameless fire was born in his heart.
He simply stood up, "Forget it, I'll go see for myself." ”
Not far away, because of her impatience, her pace sped up a lot, and she heard a commotion in the kitchen in the distance.
When Lin Qingwan walked in, he saw several layers of people inside and outside, and when he pushed aside the crowd, there was a bronze finch standing in the middle.
On the opposite side of the bronze sparrow, there was a little maid dressed in blue clothes, but she looked a little faceless, and the servants and maids in the kitchen were standing in favor of the little maid.
Lin Qingwan walked over unhurriedly, and when she arrived in front of the bronze sparrow, the tears in the bronze finch fell immediately when she saw her.
"What's the matter, is it so difficult for you to get a bowl of lotus seed soup for Miss Ben?"
Wherever he looked, he lowered his head, not daring to meet her gaze.
The bronze finch had porridge on her body and hands, but she looked a little embarrassed, but there was no wound, and after a closer look, she realized that it was supposed to be cold porridge, and it was exactly the same as the porridge she wanted to drink.
Tongque wept and sobbed: "It's the slave's fault, please forgive the young lady." ”
The little girl's eyes were already red, and she looked very aggrieved, which made Lin Qingwan feel distressed for a while.
"Tell me, why didn't you come back so late?"
And her gaze was diametrically opposed to her tone, looking coldly at the little maid in blue clothes standing there, as if she was going to freeze her, which made the little maid shiver for no reason.
Before the bronze finch could speak, the little maid rushed to say, "This is because the princess wants to make cold lotus seed soup, so she ordered the slave maid to fetch it." I thought that the young lady should be in need, just like giving it to the mother, but I didn't expect that this maid would rush towards the slave and maid, and wanted to snatch the bowl of lotus seed soup, which became such a situation. ”
The phoenix's eyes narrowed, no wonder it was so rampant, it turned out to be Lu Zhao's person, hum!
"No......" Bronze Sparrow's eyes were red for a long time, and he looked very pitiful, and his hands kept shaking on his chest, "This thing is not as ...... as she said"
The little maid stood up aggressively, "No, what is that?" You ask the steward here to see if this is the case, slut, you dare to spew blood!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and struck the bronze finch in the face.
Lin Qingwan laughed angrily, her young lady is standing here, but a maid is in charge! And the servants and maids around her are all like they can't see it, just standing like this.
Holding the maid's hand, Lin Qingwan shook her hand away.
"Miss Ben is asking the bronze sparrow, what kind of thing are you, saying these things in front of Miss Ben?"
A pair of eyes were slightly raised, her height was a cut taller than this girl, she looked at her condescendingly, and then ignored her.
The little maid in the blue dress was angry, but she still kept her mouth shut.
"Bronze Sparrow, say!"
I don't know why, seeing Lin Qingwan like this, Tongque felt a kind of stabilizing power from her body, settled down, and finally stopped crying.
