Chapter 261 Aunt (1)
"Freedom? Well, it means I can do whatever I want. Whatever I want, whatever makes me happy."
"Miss, aren't you free now?"
"Well, it can't be said that it's not free. It should be said that it's not very free."
"But isn't it true that young lady can do whatever she wants now?"
"That's what I said, but you don't understand. You don't understand even if I tell you."
"Chunxiu doesn't understand, and Chunxiu doesn't want to understand. I just need to know how to serve the lady." Chunxiu said with a smile.
Yue Qing said: "When you follow me for a long time, you will definitely understand."
Chunxiu looked at her and said nothing.
Yue Qing continued: "What Cai'er and the others said makes some sense. There are indeed some special things in the villa. When you are usually here with me, don't inquire about things at will, and don't tell anyone about the things in my courtyard. Also, You can’t touch or turn over the things I use casually. If you know something you shouldn’t know, someone may deal with it.”
Chunxiu was frightened and kowtowed quickly, "Miss, Chunxiu doesn't dare."
Yue Qing quickly stopped her: "Okay, stop taking it. I'm just reminding you that after all, I can't follow you all the time. The people in the villa are very straightforward in doing things. Once they find something that is not good for them, they will take advantage of it." Dispose of it.”
Chunxiu nodded: "Yes, Chunxiu understands."
Yue Qing said: "Don't worry, as long as you don't betray me, I won't let anything happen to you. Get up quickly."
Chunxiu stood up.
Yue Qing put her feet down, "Did it scare you?"
Chunxiu nodded.
"As long as you don't do unnecessary things, you will find that they are easy to get along with. I picked you four girls at that time, but if you put them all in the room, it would be easy for trouble to happen. From now on, Chunlan and the others will be under your control. Don't be too personal. matter."
"yes."
"Well, don't stand all the time. Sit down. I just wanted to ask you about what happened in the house in the past few years. Do you know much about it?"
Chunxiu didn't dare to sit down, so she stood aside and replied, "Miss, you want to ask Madam about something."
"Well, what's the matter with my mother's illness? When I left, she should have nothing wrong with her body except being sentimental."
"Madam is indeed not in good health. There have been bad times in the past. This slave has also stayed in Madam's courtyard before. Madam cannot be exposed to the wind. As long as she sees the wind, she will catch the cold."
"Really? Why didn't I feel it?"
Chunxiu said: "Miss was still young at that time, so I don't remember much."
Yue Qing sighed, she had only been in the house for a few days, and Chang Yuqing was basically there, so it was normal not to know. "Maybe, so is she seriously ill now?"
Chunxiu nodded: "Yes, madam, she often coughs now, and she even coughed up blood some time ago. A miracle doctor came to the house a few days ago, and he came with Mr. Huai and the others. He gave injections and some medicine. In addition, I heard that the lady is coming back, so I feel much better, my energy is better, and I don’t cough too much."
"When did it start getting serious?"
"My lady's condition started to get worse after she left for more than a year."
"When did those aunts come? Was it before or after my mother became seriously ill?"
"Miss, Aunt Jia and Aunt Zheng were already here before the lady left."
"I know this. When did Aunt Liu become Aunt Liu?"
"Aunt Liu was the aunt that Madam took in before she became seriously ill."
"Where are the other two?"
"Aunt Wen and Aunt Ruyan entered the house one after another after Madam became seriously ill."
Yue Qing sighed and said: "My mother is ill, but my father actually has the heart to take care of so many aunts. Are any of these five aunts worried?"
Chunxiu looked at her.
"What's wrong? Speak boldly."
"The slaves are afraid that their masters will blame them."
"What are you afraid of? I will let anyone who creates trouble leave this house."
"That young lady has to protect the slave."
"Well, of course. Don't keep calling yourself slave. Didn't I tell you before?"
"I'm used to it when the lady is away during this period."
"I have to change my attitude from now on. Don't stand still. I raise my head to talk. If you don't feel comfortable, sit down."
"Slave, Chunxiu doesn't dare to sit with the young lady."
"Then sit on the floor and rub your legs for me."
"Yes." Chunxiu sat down as instructed and rubbed her legs.
"Miss, these aunts are indeed noisy."
"Oh, who are they? Tell me." Yue Qing put down the book and leaned on the soft pillow. Qing'er has been carrying this pillow with her from Qingyue Pavilion to Xibao City and then to Li Country, saying she was afraid that the hospital owner might not be able to sleep well if she changed it. It doesn’t matter if you bring only one, but you also bring a lot of other items in one go. But it’s true that it’s really comfortable to lean on.
Chunxiu raised her face and began to say: "Miss, in fact, it's not just our house, no matter which house there are, there will be some noise when there are too many people.
In comparison, things in our house are better. To be honest, it was Aunt Liu who was the first to worry. The young lady also knew that Aunt Liu was the prince's cousin and was not originally an aunt. At that time, there were only Aunt Zheng and Aunt Jia in our house. Aunt Jia had a young master in her courtyard, so besides the princess, the prince usually went to Aunt Jia the most. Although Aunt Zheng also has children, she is a concubine and is not valued by the prince.
As for Aunt Liu, she often greeted the prince in private before the young lady left. She also knew a lot about the prince's preferences. The princess was not as good at making men happy as she was. In addition, she was often in poor health. After the young lady left, , Chunxiu heard that his wife often persuaded the prince to go to other aunts' rooms, and it was at that time that Aunt Liu entered the prince's room.
Aunt Liu was favored at that time, because Madam didn't care about the family, and she was basically in charge of all the affairs of the house. Later, I became pregnant, and I often went to my wife’s room, obviously to pay my respects, but ended up telling her all the embarrassing things. The most common thing said is that I have no money and I have to ask my wife for it. When she was housekeeper, her cousin, oh, now she should be called Uncle Hao, took away a lot of property from the house. Madam was very angry when she found out, so she said a few words to Aunt Liu. Aunt Liu went to the prince and said that the madam had reprimanded her. She was afraid that she was running the family in the wrong way, and many things were done only with the madam's consent.
The prince exchanged anxious glances with his wife, saying that Aunt Liu was pregnant and it was not appropriate for her to do this. After being scolded by Xiaoye and Hong'er, I rarely went to Madam's house from then on, and then Madam's condition worsened. After his wife's condition worsened, the prince often visited her. Later, when Aunt Liu was about to give birth, the prince didn't go much. "
Yue Qing snorted coldly: "And these things, why didn't I see that Aunt Liu still has this ability?"
"Miss, she has more than these abilities. After Aunt Liu gave birth to Miss, she often said that she was in poor health and asked the prince to accompany her every day. She also gave birth to a daughter, and she was the most favored among the three aunts, so she named her daughter Her name is Yuye, which means golden branches and jade leaves. I heard that she often pesters the prince to raise her status and wants to be a concubine."
"And the concubine."
"yes."
"Then my father didn't agree?"
"I heard that I was about to agree to it, but I don't know what happened, but I didn't agree to it again. I heard that people in the palace didn't agree."
"In the palace?" Yue Qing frowned, "What does the matter in this mansion have to do with the palace?"
"I don't understand this Chunxiu."
Yue Qing nodded, "Okay, you continue, what happened next?"
"Well, although Aunt Liu was not made a concubine, she was still very favored. Except for Madam's yard, everyone else in the mansion was a little afraid of her, especially Aunt Zheng. She was not favored in the first place, and neither was her daughter. She often She was bullied by Aunt Liu and her daughter, and a lot of expenses were deducted. One winter, Aunt Zheng even got cold and sick.
After hearing about it, Madam went to see her. Miss Yuting in Aunt Zheng's courtyard cried very pitifully. Madam's sad face was particularly ugly, and she even sent someone to send charcoal fire to their courtyard. Aunt Liu made another scene, crying and beating again. She was slapped by Miss Hong'er and fell ill, but when the doctor saw her, she became pregnant again. When the prince feels distressed, she has done nothing wrong. "
Yue Qing sighed, thinking that this person is really capable, but it's a pity that he didn't fall into his hands, and his wife was too weak.
Just listen to Chunxiu continue to say: "After that, my wife became more and more ill. She often lay in bed and couldn't get up. Miss Xiaoye and Miss Hong'er had cold faces all day long. The prince was also very worried and specially invited someone from the palace. I went to the imperial doctor. I also saw the disease and took medicine, but there was no improvement. It became more and more serious, and in the end I coughed up blood. At that time, everyone in the palace did not dare to express their anger. Even Aunt Liu did not dare to speak in front of Madam. say.
Seeing that there was no good solution but to take care of it every day, the prince also changed a lot and became depressed. He often didn't stay in the palace, and after he came back, he kept company in the madam's courtyard. Even Aunt Liu was not happy about having a young master in her room, and Aunt Liu was angry for a long time. "
"In that case, where did Aunt Wen and Aunt Ruyan come from? My mother is so ill, but dad still has the heart to take care of her."
"Aunt Wen and Aunt Ruyan entered the mansion together last year. Madam's illness has not improved. Later, I heard someone said that if there is a happy event in the mansion, it might be better. Aunt Wen is here to celebrate. Aunt Wen is a lady from the official family. , her father is Zhongshu Ling, and her mother's family is a well-known wealthy businessman. Although she is a concubine, she is very favored in the house.
Aunt Wen is a capable person and good at taking care of people. She often waits on Madam in her room. She also brings a lot of good medicinal materials from her natal family to Madam, and from time to time she asks doctors to come to the mansion for diagnosis and treatment. Doctors from the countryside came more and more, and they really found some methods, and my wife's health improved a bit. As soon as the prince was happy, he handed over the management of the affairs of the mansion to her. Aunt Wen managed the affairs of the mansion very well and was not afraid of Aunt Liu at all. "
"So, this Aunt Wen is pretty good."
"Yes, Aunt Wen is also very kind to the servants. Although she is very strict, she never treats us badly. Especially to the people in Madam's courtyard and the people in our courtyard."
"Oh, what about this Ruyan? Is he also here to celebrate?"
"Aunt Ruyan didn't come here to celebrate. She was originally from Tianxiang Tower. She was favored by the prince and redeemed her body. She entered the mansion not long after Aunt Wen came. But Aunt Wen was brought back in a sedan chair with eight carriages. Yes, she came back directly in the carriage. After she came, she was more favored than Aunt Liu, and the two often quarreled. But they didn't often quarrel in front of Madam, only in front of Aunt Wen. Occasionally, Madam got into trouble. , Madam has also heard of it, forget it, she is really not in good health and can't care about so many things.
It's just that some time ago, Uncle Hao was in debt and lost the bet that the prince bought for him. He moved his whole family back to the prince's palace and lived in Aunt Liu's yard in the backyard. The prince didn't agree at first, but couldn't bear Aunt Liu's tears, so he agreed.
This Uncle Hao, he, sometimes he does bad things, and Aunt Wen can't really control him, after all, he is not from the backyard. She is also the prince's cousin, and she is not easy to control. "
"Why, did he make trouble with my mother?"
"Well, I haven't specifically gone to Madam's courtyard to make trouble, but sometimes Madam would see him when she went to the garden to relax. One time she happened to catch him touching people in Madam's courtyard, and Madam was very angry. Do the next thing. Human beings sometimes dare not say anything when their master does something to them.”
Yue Qing frowned.
"From then on, Madam didn't go to the garden very much. Uncle Hao became even more unscrupulous in the backyard. Later, Miss Cai'er and the Huai guards came, and they encountered Uncle Hao, and he was beaten by Miss Cai'er. He was beaten. At first he was still unconvinced, but he was beaten by the Huai guards again.
Miss Liu went to the prince, who originally asked his wife to help intercede. Miss Cai'er said that the young lady was coming back soon and she couldn't let the young lady see such dirty eyes. If such people were to be killed directly in the villa, the lady said nothing more. "
Yue Qing smiled: "Is Cai'er so powerful?"
"Miss, of course Miss Cai'er is so powerful. You don't even know that at that time, Cai'er of course beat Uncle Hao so hard that his face and mouth were bleeding. He was crawling all over the floor and screaming. Guard Song stood by and watched, and the other guards No one dared to step forward."
"When did it happen? I remember that Cai'er and the others didn't come long before us. Why did my cousin get better so quickly? I didn't notice it at all."
"Miss Cai'er said she couldn't let the young lady see these messy things, so she asked the doctor in the mansion to treat her. She also said that if he dared to talk nonsense in front of the young lady, he would definitely break one of his legs."
Yue Qing was surprised: "Is it so fierce?"
Chunxiu said: "It's not just fierce. Miss Cai'er usually doesn't even give the prince's face when she talks. Not only Cai'er, but also Huai Guards and others. It turns out that Chunxiu thought they were already very powerful, but after meeting several people in the young lady's courtyard, Young Master, I realized that they are nothing, and the few in the lady’s courtyard are the really powerful people.”
After saying that, he quickly covered his mouth and said, "By the way, the lady just said not to inquire too much. Chunxiu should be beaten."
"You remember it clearly."
Chunxiu raised her face and said with a smile: "Miss Cai'er, you have to be very alert when serving by your side. If you get into any trouble, you won't be lenient. Let alone us, even if it's us. If they make any mistakes, they will be severely punished."
"Who will punish them?"
"I don't know about Chunxiu, but I think Miss will not punish anyone. Miss is easy-going and will not punish people easily."
Yue Qing smiled. "Okay, are you ready to take a bath? I'm a little sleepy."
Chunxiu quickly said yes, got up and walked around outside the room.
