Pei Chen waved his hand, "You and your elder sister bullied Guan Zhou that day and transferred away her maid. Fortunately, it didn't cause a big disaster, otherwise I wouldn't be able to protect you now."
"What? What does it have to do with me?"
Xiao Yinxiu stiffened her neck. She didn't expect Pei Chen to scold her and Pei Qiuyun.
Pei Chen said in a deep voice, "I know exactly what you and my elder sister are thinking. Maybe you don't know that the maid was specially hired by the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace to serve and protect Guan Zhou. She knows some martial arts. You guys are so good. I caught her and she went to get you some water and tea. I forcibly sent her away for a long time!"
"My husband is probably trying to fool me. The Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace... is she looking for a maid for the Song family?"
That's the Crown Princess!
Pei Chen raised the corners of his lips and looked at Xiao Yinxiu who looked ignorant. "Have you forgotten that Guan Zhou not only saved our children when he fell into the water, but also the Qin family... and the tenth prince!"
Xiao Yinxiu was slightly stunned, "This..., the palace has already given the Song family a lot of rewards."
Ignorant woman!
"You are the only one who is so mean to your savior. The palace values Guan Zhou very much. Don't be blinded by one thing and deceive yourself."
Xiao Yinxiu wanted to argue, "Of course I don't want anything to happen to the Song family. We are from the same family, and my two brothers will have to get married in the future. If their reputation is ruined, don't I, as a mother, know the reason?"
"Humph!"
Pei Chen sneered, "It's good that you know it."
The couple fell into silence for a long time. Pei Chen raised his head and looked around.
"Where's Yaer?"
Mentioning this little bitch again!
"She went to work. She was just a maid, but the prince was always thinking about her."
Pei Chen frowned, "Why are you jealous? I just asked a question." He had already changed into a dark robe, and now he didn't care and turned around and walked out.
Xiao Yinxiu chased after him, "It's so cold, where are you going?"
The answer she got was Pei Chen's resolute back. Not long after, the little maid came to report to Shuangyue, "The prince is in Aunt Qiao's room."
Frost Moon looked around and felt helpless.
After entering carefully, Xiao Yinxiu sat on the couch with a gloomy face. Shuangyue knew that there would be trouble again. Xiao Yinxiu looked up as she thought, "Where did you go?"
"Madam..., the prince is in Aunt Qiao's room."
Xiao Yinxiu had a blank expression on her face. "Sometimes, I also dislike Pei Chen for being so dirty!"
"Madam, please be careful with your words. The prince's temper is hard to predict now. Don't let anyone with ulterior motives overhear it and cause a rift between you and your spouse."
snort!
Xiao Yinxiu called Shuangyue over and asked in a low voice, "Is Ya'er still not being honest?"
Shuang Yue pondered for a moment, "After being beaten by you, Madam, several times, she is now much more obedient, but in front of me, she has to be more powerful after all."
"As expected, she is a little bitch. Why are you afraid of her? I have your back!"
Shuangyue agreed verbally, but her heart was not as sincere as before. She would do whatever Xiao Yinxiu asked her to do, but now it seems that she agreed with a false heart.
"Thank you, Madam. However, Miss Ya'er should seldom come to the main room. If I encounter her showing off her verbal skills on a daily basis, I can tolerate it."
Although she was serving Xiao Yinxiu, Xiao Yinxiu was annoyed when he saw her.
After making a fuss several times and getting beaten, Fang Yaer knelt down and begged the prince to give her a chance to live. Pei Chen sent someone to clean up the study and let her live there.
On weekdays, he also listens to Xiao Yinxiu's orders, but is in charge of the study affairs.
Now she no longer had to beg Xiao Yinxiu for food, and her life was a little better. Only then did Fang Yaer feel regretful.
She wanted to coax Pei Chen to give birth to a child, but Pei Chen had many wives and concubines, and she was just a maid. It was difficult for her to coax Pei Chen to be affectionate on a daily basis.
What's more, it's in the study.
Pei Chen kicked her away twice. "I don't like places like the study room. You dare to make love in front of the sage books?"
Fang Yaer was so frightened that she never dared to do it again. When Xiao Yinxiu heard about it, he felt much happier.
Turning around, she saw Gao coming towards her holding her belly. Her heart sank again. Who would have thought that a young belly could be so useful? Many times people had said that the baby was not good and could not be kept, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise every time.
Seeing her pregnancy becoming more and more obvious, Xiao Yinxiu became more and more annoyed.
She picked up the needlework, but after doing a few stitches, she put it down again. "Shuangyue, you and Aunt Chu prepare some gifts. I will find some time to visit my elder sister tomorrow."
Pei Qiuyun came back in a rage. Xiao Yinxiu had placed all his hopes on her, but the winter month was almost over and his aunt was still imprisoned in the small Buddhist temple, and everything in the mansion remained the same.
How can this be possible?
Aunt Chu was called over. The old woman had been getting worse day by day since Doctor Zhang left, and she even fell ill in winter. Xiao Yinxiu sent someone to get some medicine, but Aunt Chu didn't take it well.
After entering the house and hearing Xiao Yinxiu's instructions, Aunt Chu perked up and responded with a yes.
Seeing her half dead, Xiao Yinxiu thought of the affection between master and servant in the past, and softened her heart, "Aunt, you are angry with me. Just tell the maids to boil the herbs I caught. You will get better after eating them for two days. I only have Shuangyue around. If you don't get better soon, who can help me if I encounter a problem?"
Aunt Chu bowed and said, "It's my fault. My body is not strong enough. Thank you for your concern, Madam."
I can’t say more.
Trapped in this mansion, the little things she had done with Doctor Zhang were spread among the servants by the gossipy old women and maids, and everyone knew about it.
Xiao Yinxiu disliked her every day. She had offended many people in the past because of her arrogance. Now she was old and her reputation was damaged, which made others add insult to injury.
After a while, Aunt Chu also became depressed.
Xiao Yinxiu didn't just ignore her. He would call her from time to time, and either scold her or persuade her softly. In short, when she felt like she couldn't survive anymore, Xiao Yinxiu would pull her back. When she tried to calm down and serve him well, she would lose hope again because of Xiao Yinxiu's fickle temper.
Over and over again, Aunt Chu's heart was filled with bitterness, unable to express itself.
After being sent away by Xiao Yinxiu, she walked out of the main room, stood under the eaves, looking at the dim candlelight in the night, feeling desolate in her heart.
The winter is bleak and water turns into ice as soon as it falls.
Those who are struggling with life and death are not only the insignificant old nanny like Aunt Chu, but also Miss Jin, who was once so glorious but has now fallen into disgrace.
Jin Fuyun's eyes were blank and his face was pale.
She knelt on the cold floor, tightly grasping Princess Hong'an's hand, and refused to let go no matter how Jiang and the maids tried to persuade her.
This went on for a day and a night.
During this time, Jin Yunfan heard this and rushed in furiously, "Jin Fuyun, you are still so stubborn until now, are you going to make your mother's journey to the underworld uneasy?"
Jin Fuyun pressed her face against her mother's hand, which had been cold for a long time.
There are no tears, no crying, only stubbornness and hesitation that cannot be broken free of!
