Chapter 310

Cui Nong watched Jixiang receive a bucket of ice cubes, frowned and said, "According to the usual practice, doesn't your little master have three buckets?"

"Yes, but there are some people who see my little master is not favored. They start to treat the young master harshly. The young master treats people kindly. In the past, the young master who embezzled money can just open one eye or close one eye. But This is scorching heat, what should I do if there are no ice cubes that should be there, mainly because I fainted from the heat?"

While complaining, Ji Xiang walked over to look at the list in Cui Nong's hand. "Empress Li Ji actually has ten buckets of ice cubes this year, it's unreasonable!"

"It was unreasonable, but my young master is afraid of heat but not cold. The emperor specifically asked to add a few barrels to my young master's share. The empress has approved this matter. So I took Come to find Eunuch Xia with the list!"

When Eunuch Xia saw Cui Nong, he even smiled like a flower, and quickly walked up to him. "Isn't this Aunt Cui Nong? How can you ask for your honor to pick it up in person? Send a little girl to let me know, and the servant will send it to you immediately!"

Cui Nong smiled and said, "No need. I'll leave after receiving it."

"Wait, Sister Cui Nong." Ji Xiang held Cui Nong's hand, curled his mouth, and said, "Sister Cui Nong, please help me. If you don't get three buckets of ice and go back to your life, my little master He will punish me! I know that Sister Cui Nong has the best heart, can you share two buckets with me so that I can go back to work?"

Before Cui Nong could reply, Eunuch Xia said impatiently: "Go back and tell your master, hide under the shade of a tree when it's hot. It's very cool under the big tree, even ice cubes can be saved." It’s down. No matter how hot the summer is, it’s only a matter of ten or so days, let your master endure it and pass.”

"You, you are simply deceiving people too much!" The people in the palace were putting on airs, and when they saw Li Ji being favored, they hurriedly handed over their money, smiling carefully, fearing that others would not appreciate it.And for those who fall out of favor, they are like nothing.The ugly face made by the current Eunuch Xia really made her feel very uncomfortable.

It's okay to endure the white eyes of the palace people on weekdays, but now she was ridiculed by a rootless person.In other words, no one can bear it!She endured her grievances and said, "Grandpa Xia, don't make things difficult for your slaves, and you're still hoping to give your slaves a bucket of ice cubes to go back to work."

"Go, go, it's none of your business!" Eunuch Xia drove Jixiang out with a look of disgust.

"Aunt Cui Nong, I will ask the little eunuch to deliver the ice cubes to you later." While talking, he took out a box of rouge and stuffed it to Cui Nong.

Cui Nong saw that it was the rouge from He Zhai outside the palace, so she hurriedly refused to accept it.

Gonggong Xia pretended to be angry and said: "If my aunt refuses to accept it, she will dislike the slave and refuse to make friends with the slave!"

"Where is it, Eunuch Xia is the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, how can I climb up with my status and background!" Cui Nong said with a smile on his face.

"Don't say that, this is what I should do. As long as you speak a few words of kindness for me beside Miss Li Ji, I will be grateful to you, aunt! Little Lizi, send me a gift Aunt Cui Nong."

"Yes!" Xiao Lizi sent Cui Nong to the door, Cui Nong looked at Jixiang still pacing there with a sad face, and said to Xiao Lizi: "You can help me get a bucket of ice cubes for Jixiang later, don't say yes I sent it. I said it was given according to the order."

Little Lizi nodded. "Understood, this matter is on my shoulders, and I will definitely handle it for you."

Cui Nong sighed and returned to Chunhua Hall.
