Chapter 23 The Queen Mother
Grandma Dai was always known for her exquisite heart and quick mouth. She immediately stepped forward and said:
"No, it's all a coincidence. But didn't the Queen Mother say before that we would report the performance of the show girls to you when we have time? I originally wanted to come over yesterday, but I heard that you were feeling unwell yesterday and did not come over. Excuse me, isn’t this coming today?”

The two of them are sworn enemies, so they won't discuss it.

Aunt Jiao looked at Aunt Dai without any trace, and also echoed:

"It's my first day teaching my masters today. Something interesting happened, so I came over to tell you about it. I happened to meet Grandma Dai."

Although she wanted to report Shi Fanghua's matter, in order to prevent Nanny Dai from stealing the limelight, Nanny Jiao decided to wait until later.

Hearing that both of them were talking about show girls, the Queen Mother was also very curious. She attached great importance to this draft. Her son's dislike of women gave her a headache, so she wanted to find some good girls for her son.

Besides, my son is already old and he has no heirs yet. As a mother, can I not be anxious?

"Hey"

The Queen Mother couldn't help but sigh. Even from a poor family, children at this age can help the family, but what about the emperor?The child doesn’t know where he is yet!
As for the two concubines in the harem, they are really useless. They have been in the palace for so long. Not only have they failed to capture the emperor's heart, they also have no heirs.

The more the Queen Mother thought about it, the angrier she became. She simply gave up thinking about it and decided to focus on these beautiful women.

"Since we are all talking about the beautiful girls, please sit down and talk to the Ai family."

She is now very curious about the performance of the show girls, not to mention that they are all stunningly talented!There were one or two that she was quite satisfied with.

Aunt Dai came today to curry favor with the Queen Mother, and immediately said: "I was the first to teach you all yesterday. The one who impressed me the most was Young Master Song. His etiquette is impeccable."

Then he told the Queen Mother about the previous competition.

Aunt Dai always knows what the Queen Mother wants to hear and what she doesn't want to hear. Now the Queen Mother just wants to enrich the harem for the emperor, so she must say she behaves well.

"Yes, I think this Young Master Song is not bad, and he performed the best today." Aunt Jiao also agreed. Whether it is knowledge or character, he is someone she likes.

After speaking, she glared at Aunt Dai without leaving any trace. She originally wanted to say something, but she couldn't move as quickly as Aunt Dai.

"Oh, is this Song Jingjing, the daughter of the Minister of Dali Temple?"

The Queen Mother didn't pay attention to the little movements of the two. After thinking about it, she suddenly remembered it.

During the selection process, she was deeply impressed. He was a child with good knowledge. Unfortunately, she wanted someone who could please the emperor, not the number one scholar.

But the emperor seemed to like it that day and nodded secretly in his heart.

She knew that her son liked smart and capable women, and this Song Xiaozhu should be praised by so many people.

"anything else?"

"And Little Master Lan is also pretty good. He's quite decent and has a general understanding." This time it was Grandma Jiao who said it.

She also heard about what happened yesterday. Although she lost the competition, she didn't show any jealous or sad expression. She performed well today, so she didn't mind praising her.

Grandma Dai on the side nodded repeatedly. Little Master Lan was also her favorite. What she originally planned to say was overtaken by Grandma Jiao.

Suddenly I was a little unconvinced, thinking that she must be faster than Nanny Jiao.

"Yes, the girls from the Lan family have always been the best." She had specifically inquired about her before, and she was one of the daughters she had always been optimistic about.

The Queen Mother was very satisfied after hearing this. They were all girls she liked.

"The Queen Mother Mingjian" the two mothers said in unison.

Seeing that the Queen Mother was happy, Nanny Jiao planned to tell her the purpose of coming. Unexpectedly, Nanny Sun next to the Queen Mother spoke up.

"How is Mr. Su doing?"

Xiaozhu Su is the Queen Mother's savior. Not to mention her, the Queen Mother must also want to know how she is doing.

Hearing what Nanny Sun said, Nanny Dai and Nanny Jiao's hearts trembled. They had heard before that this Little Master Su was the only one the Queen Mother asked to stay. They originally thought it was a coincidence, but now it seems there is something fishy about it.Originally, she was not optimistic about Su Qingqing, but now she really felt that Su Xiaozhu was the most likely to be selected. Their thoughts turned over and over again, and in the end it was Grandma Dai who made the first comment.

"He's a naughty one."

Thinking of Su Qingqing's performance yesterday, she could only make this comment. She couldn't tell lies without conscience, Grandma Dai sighed in her heart.

Aunt Jiao was about to speak for Su Qingqing. When she heard Aunt Dai's comment, she felt it was very pertinent, so she immediately agreed:
“Really a naughty one”

"Oh?"

There are many comments about beautiful girls, including dignified, talented, and grand. It was the first time I heard the word naughty, which also aroused the Queen Mother's interest.

"Tell me, why are you so naughty?"

Grandma Dai had nothing to say, so she turned to look at Grandma Jiao.

Aunt Jiao was not polite and told the story of Su Qingqing's sleep vividly. She even stood up when she got excited.

"Your Majesty, you don't know. Young Master Su can just go to sleep, but he still talks in his sleep." Aunt Jiao deliberately let it slip and did not continue.

"Oh, what did you say?"

The Queen Mother spoke out curiously, and even Aunt Dai wanted to hear what was going on. As for Aunt Sun, although she did not speak, she stared straight at Aunt Jiao.

This aroused everyone's curiosity. Grandma Jiao was very satisfied and said:

"Chicken legs, chicken legs."

Thinking of this scene, Grandma Jiao was still a little angry, but she did make the Queen Mother laugh.

"Haha, what a living treasure."

Everyone in the palace was well-behaved, and such a scene had not happened for a long time, so the Queen Mother did not think Su Qingqing was unruly, but found it interesting.

Then the Queen Mother asked Nanny Dai about Su Qingqing's class, and Nanny Dai answered truthfully.

When she heard that Su Qingqing was late on the first day, the Queen Mother was not annoyed, but smiled and said:
"Girl Su is good, but a little naughty. You just need to pay more attention in the future."

At this time, the two nuns were even more sure that the Queen Mother liked Su Qingqing very much. In order to show her sincerity, Aunt Dai immediately expressed her stance.

"I must teach you well, old slave."

Aunt Jiao also understood and immediately replied: "I will try my best, but there is something I need to apologize to the Queen Mother for."

After saying that, he knelt down to the Queen Mother.

"Why should I apologize to the Ai family for anything? As long as it's harmless, the Ai family won't blame you."

Aunt Jiao looked like she was hesitating to speak, but finally she seemed to have mustered up the courage to say:

"It was the old slave's negligence that made Master Su hungry all day long and even fainted on the second day."

Aunt Jiao just said that Su Qingqing was fined with lunch for sleeping in class. It was supposed to be just one meal, but now it turned into a whole day.

The Queen Mother has been in this deep palace for many years, how come she doesn't know the twists and turns.

But Su Qingqing is her savior, and she will not let anyone bully Su Qingqing.

"What's going on, tell me in detail."
