Houmen's concubine

Chapter 46 Plum Blossom Lantern

"Sister Tong'er, look at the lanterns in front, they are so beautiful!" Zhaodi pointed at the various lanterns in front of her with bright eyes.

There are cute and cute rabbit lanterns, exquisite and beautiful octagonal palace lanterns, and small and exquisite plum blossom lanterns.
The most dazzling is the Lantern Festival by the Gunshui River. The huge lotus lanterns are like sky lanterns in full bloom in the middle of the Gunshui River. The pink petals rotate slowly, shining brightly and beautifully.

Zhaodi pointed to the plum blossom lantern and said to the stall owner, "Uncle help me take down that plum blossom lantern."

"Oh, good girl!" The stall owner lamented that the little girl's eyes are so bright. This plum blossom lantern is the most popular lantern this year, and there is only the last one left.

Just as the stall owner selling the lantern took down the plum lantern and handed it to Zhaodi, a hand stretched out from behind took it.

"Eh?"

Wang Tong'er smelled a strong smell of powder in her nose, turned around and looked back at the same time as Zhao Di, only to see a beautiful woman holding the plum blossom lantern in her hand, and she still gave Wang Tong'er a glare: "Look, What are you looking at? My lady saw this lantern first. Hmph!"

laugh!What are you proud of?It turned out that she was also a servant girl just like herself.

Forehead?No, why does this servant girl look familiar?
Wang Tong'er saw her hold the lantern in her hand, and came to a gorgeously dressed young lady with dazzling beads on her head and a face scarf.

"I saw this lantern first." Zhao Di murmured in a low voice.

Unexpectedly, the voice of Zhaodi complaining to Wang Tonger was heard sharply by another servant girl next to the lady, and she pointed at Zhaodi arrogantly and said, "Hmph! I don't even look at my poor appearance! Dare to compete with my lady for the lantern?"

"Forget it, let's look at the other lanterns!" Wang Tong'er was holding Zhaodi's hand and leaving. Hearing this, she looked at their master and servant. The young lady was illuminated by the woven lanterns on the street. Even though her small face was covered by a thin scarf, Wang Tong'er had a deep memory of her pair of exposed eyes.

Tsk, I'm really lucky, with so many people on the street, I actually met Shen Mengxi, the future mistress of Qingsongyuan, Second Miss Shen.

No wonder the servant girl who just saw the lantern snatched from Zhaodi looked familiar!

It was an acquaintance.

In the past few days, Wang Tong'er followed Xie Yuheng to Huijuyuan. From their mother and son, they generally knew that Shen Yushi's family had three prostitute daughters and one concubine daughter.

The eldest daughter married Cheng Guogong's second son as his wife, and the third daughter and the concubine were both young girls in their teens.

The Second Miss Shen in front of her, Shen Mengxi, will marry the best in the future, and marrying the young and promising Xie Shizi is a high marriage.

Wang Tong'er was wrapped in a scarf, probably Miss Shen Er didn't recognize that it was her, otherwise, with her gentle and virtuous price tag, she would definitely not arrogantly order her servants to grab the lanterns, which would hurt her gentle face.

"Pomegranate, don't go and give the silver." Second Miss Shen ordered in a cold voice.

"Yes, miss, the maidservant is going now."

It turned out that the maidservant Wang Tonger was familiar with was Shiliu, and she was the one who snatched the lantern from Zhaodi just now. Hearing this, she took out a handful of small coins from her purse and threw it to the lantern vendor.

"Aren't you throwing away this lantern? The low class people fancy it, and it's a shame that you used it to dirty my eyes!" Shen Mengxi couldn't say the words in his tone, which could make people feel cold.

"Oh, the servant girl will save you."

Wang Tonger saw another maidservant, and hurriedly threw the plum blossom lantern to the ground: "Crack!" With a loud sound, she didn't forget to step on it a few times with her feet.

The delicate and small plum blossom lantern just now fell apart.

When Wang Tong'er saw this kind of manipulation by the future imperial concubine, Mo Ming's heart skipped a beat.

Not only did she hear the condescending and contemptuous words from Miss Shen's voice.There was also a violent bad temper.

From the flower appreciation banquet held by the Hou Mansion that day, Wang Tong'er had a glimpse of this Second Miss Shen, the future imperial concubine is not easy to meet.

Fortunately, what did Shi Ziye say: Shi Zifei is a gentle and virtuous mistress!

This shows that Second Miss Shen usually hides well, but today she thought she met two young girls who went to the countryside, so she probably revealed her true colors.

Wang Tong'er took Zhaodi's hand and went back, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

She was worried about what would happen if Miss Yi Chen had such a delicate temper, and after marrying the Shizi, she would find fault with herself everywhere?
No wonder Wang Tong'er thinks this way, the reason is of course that Qingsongyuan has no other servants besides herself and Xiao Zhaodi?

Besides, Wang Tong'er is not boasting, her appearance is too gorgeous...
well!After a few months, the body has grown, and no matter how thick the bangs are, they can't hide their good color.

I don't know if this appearance that shouldn't be born on my maidservant is a blessing or a curse?

In other words, don't say that the master finds fault for no reason, just beats and scolds himself, even if he sells himself, the slaves have nothing to complain about?

Alas!

After finally spending a few days in Qingsongyuan, the carefree days seem to be coming to an end soon!
Alas!
After the eldest son gets married, it is estimated that he will have to live a miserable life of being tortured by the mistress...
No!

I have to find Shi Ziye, can I beg him to change my job for me?

Even if you go elsewhere to be a rough envoy girl.

Who was Wang Tong'er afraid of before?
Ever since I was a child, I have never been used to bullying the weak by the strong, and I am a master who loves to fight against injustice!

At that time, with the backing of a powerful family, who would dare to bully her?

Mainly because it is a society ruled by law where everyone is equal...

Wang Tong'er was full of thoughts in her heart, and she didn't care about buying lanterns for Zhaodi, so she hurriedly dragged Zhaodi back to Zhongyonghou's mansion.

Unexpectedly, Wang Tong'er and Zhao Di were stopped by Huang Yu when they arrived at Qingsongyuan: "Miss Tong'er, Master Shizi is looking for you."

"Ah? Manager Huang, do you know what the elder son wants from me right now?" Wang Tong'er was worried that she would go out to play privately, afraid of being blamed by her master, and wanted to get some news from Huang Yu.

"do not know."

"Oh."

"Zhao Di, go back to the room first, I'll go back as soon as I go." Wang Tong'er waved at Zhao Di, with the intention of the Shizi master punishing his family and punishing himself alone.

"Oh, Sister Tong'er, I'll go back to the room to help you bring the hot water." The ignorant Zhaodi said warmly to Wang Tong'er.

Wang Tong'er nodded to her and said, "Yes."

She begged secretly: If the son is punished, he will be punished!I was also looking for him, begging him to arrange myself to work elsewhere.

When she walked quickly to the door of Xie Yuheng's outer hall, she saw Xie Yuheng dressed in a crescent white embroidered bamboo brocade robe in the reflection of the lanterns hanging under the eaves, looking handsome and handsome with extraordinary appearance.

It's just that he looks tall and stern, with an intimidating nobility, but his dark eyes are full of coldness.

Wang Tong'er was so frightened that she hurried over and knelt down with a 'plop': "Your maidservant made a mistake, please punish me!"

　Among the hustle and bustle of the crowd, Wang Tong'er was really lucky to meet the future imperial concubine Shen Mengxi.

　　In the eyes of the stranger, poor people whom she despises, Shen Mengxi has long put aside the mask of "gentleness and virtuousness", and in the blink of an eye, she has a domineering and stern face.
