Lianying was naturally startled. When she turned around, she saw a beautiful maid in pink clothes standing behind her.
She had some impression of this maid. After all, this person was the eldest maid in Jiang Nianjiao's courtyard before yesterday, but after yesterday she was sent to the outer courtyard.
It's just that she doesn't quite remember the names of the two people who were sent down. She only remembers that one called them winter and the other called spring.
This maid seems to be that spring.
Since Lianying couldn't call her by name, she naturally didn't pretend to be familiar. She just looked at Chunhua angrily, "You were hiding behind people, why didn't you speak out in advance!"
Chunhua chuckled lightly, "I'm sorry for bumping into the girl, but I've been in the courtyard just now. I think maybe the girl didn't see me when I was clearing weeds in the grass."
Lingying was too lazy to argue, she just snorted softly.
Then he picked up the basket and prepared to leave.
But Chunhua kept following Lianying and said, "Miss Lianying, what are you worried about now?"
Hearing this, Lianying immediately looked at Chunhua warily, "What did you just hear?"
Chunhua smiled and said, "I heard everything just now, but don't worry, girl, I'm not a talkative person. I won't mention what the girl just said to the second person."
"Humph, you are not afraid even if you hear my colleagues talking about me. We are also people given by the palace after all. What can she do if she knows about it? Can she sell me out now?"
"It would be better to be betrayed than to stay with her. In the past, I only heard people say that this young lady from the Jiang family is unruly and willful, but thinking about the kindness of the Concubine Xian, I thought those rumors outside could not be believed. Now it seems true. It's all true." Lianying was extremely dissatisfied, perhaps because of the reprimand she received just now, and at this time she just cursed Jiang Nianjiao without hesitation.
However, Chunhua never complained directly about Jiang Nianjiao like she did. She only said neutrally, "The eldest lady has a bad temper, but she is still very generous to her subordinates."
Then she said to Lianying, "Miss Lianying, can you let me see the dishes in your food box?"
Lianying didn't think much and just handed the food box to Chunhua's eyes.
Chunhua opened the food box and took a look, and knew what was going on. "These four dishes are all things that the lady doesn't like to eat. Among them, the shrimp in the Longjing shrimp dish is something that the lady cannot eat because of her allergies." If Miss eats this, she will probably get a rash on her face. It seems to me that the people in the kitchen are deliberately trying to make things difficult for you."
Then Chunhua just closed the food box again and said, "Miss, what I like to eat on weekdays are all fresh food. It seems that these people don't know the importance of things without restraint. If you can trust me, girl, then follow me to the small restaurant." Let’s take a walk in the kitchen.”
After the words fell, Chunhua walked in front.
Lingying was going to the small kitchen, so it didn't matter whether she was going with Chunhua or not.
When the two of them arrived at the small kitchen, everyone in the kitchen had already begun to eat. They looked at the people on the table enjoying their meals, but because they had delivered the wrong dishes, they had not yet had a bite of hot rice and could only continue running errands. , when she thought that she had been scolded by Jiang Nianjiao just now because of this matter, she felt even more unhappy. .
But just when she was about to have an attack, Chunhua stopped her. She said, "It's better for me to do it. The girl will still have contact with the kitchen in the future, but it's not good to have a tense relationship from the beginning."
Although Lianying was unhappy, she felt that what Chunhua said made sense, so she did nothing. Chunhua walked into the small kitchen first.
"Hey, you guys are eating right now. What a good thing to eat today." After Chunhua entered the room, she didn't get angry immediately. She just smiled and greeted these people cordially.
However, everyone in the kitchen knew that Chunhua had been driven out to the outer courtyard, so naturally no one paid attention to her at this time.
Even one of the women who was choosing the food only said sarcastically, "Miss Chunhua, you must have gone to the wrong place. You are no longer in the girl's house now, and the place where you eat in the outer courtyard is not here."
Chunhua wasn't upset when she heard this. She just put the food box on their dining table, which was filled with delicacies.
Everyone was still confused and looked at Chunhua inexplicably.
Until Chunhua took out the food in the food box one by one.
"
Longjing shrimps, chicken shreds, steamed minced meat and eggs, cabbage in ginger sauce, purple ginseng and pheasant soup. The master asked me to give you extra meals. You all have worked really hard today. "
She brought a plate of food and announced the name of the dish. When the people in the small kitchen saw the name of the dish reported by Chunhua, their faces turned ugly.
These were just brought to the master's room by the new maid whom the kitchenette had just tricked. They originally wanted to give the new maid a slap in the face, so that they could tell the new maid that the person in their small kitchen was not someone to be trifled with.
They also guessed that the master would be furious and send the maid back, and they were ready.
If this little maid is sensible, they will naturally follow the steps.
If this little maid is not sensible, they will not be polite.
However, who would have thought that the little maid did not show up. Instead, Chunhua, who had been transferred to the outer courtyard, came over.
Seeing Chunhua looking like he was raising an army to accuse him.
These people looked at each other, not knowing for a moment whether Chunhua and the others had been transferred back to the lady's inner courtyard.
The original four of them were not easy to mess with in the young lady's courtyard, especially Chunhua. Although she was not someone who would directly punish the outside courtyard, her methods of instigating the young lady to punish them were not bad in the past.
Therefore, they don't know what Chunhua's situation is now, and they are afraid of Chunhua's past power. He immediately smiled and flattered her and said, "We just wanted to make a joke with that little girl. Who would have thought that you would actually come here in person?"
"Is Miss Chunhua transferred back to the inner courtyard again? If true, then congratulations to the girl. Let's just say that the girls are so proud in front of the eldest lady. How could the eldest lady beat the girls at will? I'll punish you as you say." Another cook smiled and tried to please Chunhua.
Chunhua naturally knew that these people just wanted to use this energy to find out whether he had returned to the inner courtyard.
If it was late winter, she would probably have poured out the truth as these people drank so much.
But she was not the one to be dismissed easily. She did not answer their words and only said, "The young lady is still hungry in the room. Do you want the young lady to come here in person?"
After hearing Chunhua's inhumane words, several people's hearts trembled, and they stopped asking around.
The wife who was in charge of the kitchen quickly asked the mother-in-law beside her to hand over the food prepared separately to Chunhua.
No matter how stupid Lianying was who was watching outside at this time, she still knew that these people in the kitchen had no good intentions. What just happened was clearly to hurt her face.
She wanted to break in, but Chunhua signaled her not to come in with her eyes.
Lian Ying got Chun Hua's help. Even though she was angry, she naturally couldn't come forward at this time.
After all, if he came forward, wouldn't the news that Chunhua had just made them think he had returned to the inner courtyard become false?
Therefore, she only waited for Chunhua to come out before she appeared.
When Chunhua saw Lianying, she changed her face to a smile. She handed the food box to Lianying on her own initiative. She had absolutely no intention of approaching the young lady because she was slacking off.
"Lian Ying, the people here are not easy-going people. You don't have to give them a good look in the future. Otherwise, they won't be embarrassed. Don't believe everything they say. If you don't know anything, As long as you trust me, you can come and ask me in the future." Chunhua said with a smile.
However, Lianying did not pick up the food box. She had already heard that Jiang Nianjiao was a unruly master, and the four girls below him were not economical either.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Nianjiao and Na Shidong were well-deserved, but Na Shichun didn't seem to be as hateful as the rumors said.
Thinking carefully about it, she had gained face in front of her master and had not made any mistakes. Now, just because of their airborne landing, she had to go to the outer courtyard.
No one can bear this change. Therefore, Lianying even felt a little pity for Chunhua at this time.
She did not accept the food box, but said sincerely, "You carry the food box and come with me. If the master sees you and misses the old relationship, he might let you go back to the inner courtyard."
Chunhua forcefully stuffed the food box back into Lianying's hand, "Miss Lianying, you don't have to pity me. In fact, I'm pretty good in the outer courtyard. Although there are more chores in the outer courtyard than in the inner courtyard, it's still better than what I did in the inner courtyard." It’s more comfortable in the inner courtyard. I’ve looked away now, but I don’t want to go back
Back to the inner courtyard. "
"Besides, my monthly salary is no different from that of the girl. The girl has to worry a lot more now."
Lianying was not a thoughtful person, and she didn't know how much money those four people had embezzled from Jiang Nianjiao. After hearing what Chunhua said, she couldn't help but truly envy Chunhua.
After all, she is willing to work more, but hates things that use her brain the most. In addition, Concubine Yuxian is a kind and kind mistress. But she was originally a little girl from the palace, and she had no scheming skills like the little girls outside.
"Well, when you put it like that, I'm a little envious of you. Since you don't want to go back, I won't force you." After Lianying said this, she obviously took Chunhua's refusal seriously.
She took the food box handed over by Chunhua, then said goodbye to Chunhua and divided their things.
When she returned to the inner courtyard, she was still a little uneasy. She was only worried that Jiang Nianjiao would be dissatisfied with the newly replaced dishes.
But this time there were new dishes, although she was inevitably asked to wait for a while.
Jiang Nianjiao actually didn't get angry at her anymore. Even when she was setting out the dishes, Jiang Nianjiao just complimented, "You came back pretty quickly."
Lingying originally wanted to say it was all because of Chunhua's help, but when she thought about Chunhua, she said she was unwilling to return to the inner courtyard.
Naturally, she couldn't harm the other party, so Lianying didn't say anything.
However, thinking that those people in the small kitchen had insulted her, she was naturally not a real person, so she only took the initiative to talk about how the people in the small kitchen had cheated her today and how she had already prepared something. Fan.
She originally thought that Jiang Nianjiao would be as indignant as her, but when Jiang Nianjiao heard about this, she just said oh.
However, Qi Lian secretly warned her, "Don't believe others' words in the future. The personnel affairs in Jiang Mansion are not as complicated as those in Concubine Xian's Yuxiu Palace."
