Chapter 415 Shy Xiangyun
When I returned to Dou Feng Xuan again, the two plays I had originally ordered had just finished.
"Where is third brother?" Daiyu asked.
Jia Cong looked at Daiyu's inquiring expression and couldn't help but laugh, "Why? Sister Lin has missed me since I left?"
"Who misses you!" Daiyu spat and quickly turned her head away.
After the previous two plays were finished, Wang Xifeng ordered another play about Liu Er pawning his clothes. Everyone listened to the play with laughter and joy. By the time all the plays were finished, it was already the end of the Xu hour.
Seeing that it was getting late, Jia Cong said, "It's getting late today, and the sisters have already had some wine, so let's go back and rest early."
After hearing this, everyone stood up.
Baochai, Daiyu and Tanchun went directly to Yingchun's courtyard, while Xing Xiuyun and Baoqin went to Xichun's courtyard.
After all the girls had rested, Youshi and the others finally felt a little relieved. Just as Youshi was about to speak, Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Zhu, I have something to discuss with Sister-in-law You and Keqing today. Do you want to come with us or go find a courtyard to rest first? "
"Second Madam, don't worry about Grandma. Let Grandma come to my yard to rest for a night. It's just right because I haven't been close to Grandma for a while." Yuanyang said.
"That would be the best!"
Li Wan didn't care. Yuanyang wasn't an outsider anyway. Besides, Yuanyang was a smart person in the West Mansion before, and she got along well with Li Wan. Immediately, the two of them walked away arm in arm.
"Shi Ya, you two should take care of Muring and go back!" Jia Cong said to Shi Ya and Mo Hen.
After the two nodded, they accompanied Zhen Muring back to the courtyard.
Afterwards, Jia Cong returned to Ningzheng Hall first. After drinking a few cups of tea, he waited until the maids fell asleep before he went out and headed towards You's courtyard.
Tonight, there is still a big battle waiting for me...
Zhen Muring was leaning on the bed in her small courtyard, but she didn't feel sleepy at all. She didn't know why, but she felt a little uneasy because Jia Cong was not around.
Even though Shi Ya and Mo Hen were taking care of him, it still happened like this.
"Miss, you drank a lot today, do you want to eat something?" Shi Ya asked.
Zhen Muring waved her hands, and after a while she murmured to herself, "I don't think he will come over today."
Shi Ya, who was standing by, was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward to comfort her, " Maybe the master will come over later, why don't you take a rest first, and if the master comes, we will wake her up. The girl just came into the mansion, and she and the master are in love, how could the master not come over?"
After saying this, Shi Ya noticed that her girl looked a little uneasy. After hesitating for a moment, Shi Ya asked.
"Miss, what happened between you and the master? However, today I saw that the master was very close to you and had no intention of distancing himself from you."
Zhen Muring sighed lightly, hesitated for a moment, and then told Shi Ya what happened last night. Although she was a little shy, Shi Ya and Mo Hen had lived and eaten together with her since they were young, and she suddenly felt a little uneasy about this matter, and was thinking of finding someone to talk to and share her worries.
Shi Ya opened her mouth wide when she heard this. After Zhen Muring finished her story, she smiled bitterly and said, "Miss, no matter what, entering the East Palace has become a fact. Even if you don't want to, you shouldn't do this. Besides, the master seems to be a man who cherishes women. As long as you do your duty, I think the master will not treat you harshly."
As a maid, there are some things that Shi Ya is not suitable to say.
On the wedding night, the groom was left alone all night. This was not Jia Cong's fault. Moreover, what kind of person was Jia Cong? Not to mention that he had other beautiful wives and concubines around him. If his daughter was like this, it would be strange for her to be favored by the master in the future. After all, who would want to face an ice cube all day?
Moreover, Shi Ya not only has to consider her own girl, but also has to consider both of them.
If it were any other family, the maid would still be able to get married, but when it comes to the reputation of a wealthy family, would the Jia family let a close maid like her marry someone else? What kind of face would the master have? Therefore, from the moment Zhen Muring entered the East Mansion, her and Mo Hen's future had already been determined, that is, to become a maidservant.
But if even their own master is not favored, what status can the two little girls have in this mansion in the future?
After a while, Shi Ya said again, "Miss, how about tomorrow when the master comes back from work, I will ask the kitchen to prepare a few side dishes, and you can accompany the master to eat?"
Zhen Mu Ning's expression changed for a moment, "You decide!"
Shi Ya finally felt relieved after hearing this. If the girl was really stubborn, they would have no other options. But as long as the girl wanted to get close to the master, they would naturally help her.
In Xiao Xichun's courtyard, although Jia Cong had asked the children to rest early, how could they fall asleep so easily after finally getting together?
Baoqin and Xiao Xichun pulled Xing Xiuyan to play together. Xiao Xichun thought it was not lively enough, so she asked Ruhua to go to Ningzheng Hall to find Xiao Que'er who was half asleep.
Xiao Que'er brought two younger ones, Xiao Jixiang and Xiao Jiao'er, and rushed into Xichun's courtyard. They asked the maids and old women to light up the lights in the courtyard and started to have fun.
Xiangyun, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the noise outside the door. She rubbed her forehead and slowly opened her eyes.
"Is the girl awake?"
Cuilu hurried forward to support Xiangyun.
"I remember we were watching a play in the garden. Where is this?"
Seeing her daughter's confused look, Cui Lu smiled speechlessly, "I asked the maid in the mansion, and she said that the daughter drank too much and fell asleep in the flowers in the garden in a daze."
"After the Third Master knew about it, he went to take care of the girl. He stayed with her for a long time but she didn't wake up. Because it was getting late, he was afraid that the girl would catch a cold, so he sent her back to the Fourth Girl's courtyard. Now, the other grandmothers and girls have gone to rest, and the Fourth Girl is playing with Miss Baoqin, Miss Xing, and Xiao Queer in the Third Master's room."
"Was it my third brother who sent me back?" Xiangyun was stunned, and then her face was full of shyness.
I actually drank too much and fell asleep among the flowers, and was seen by my third brother. It was really embarrassing.
Cui Lu smiled and whispered, "The girl was brought back by the Third Master, and she was wrapped in the Third Master's robe!"
"ah…"
Xiangyun screamed and felt her face burning. How could Third Brother treat her like this? If people spread gossip about her, well, it didn’t seem like something that was unacceptable.
