Chapter 35

Xi Rao just finished her breakfast and took the herbs to the warehouse.It is better to say that it is a spare house than a warehouse.There are only a few jars of good wine in it, and some dry goods.There are only a handful of poor warehouses in the entire warehouse.

Vanilla looked at it in shock, it was a little unbelievable.Originally, I thought about some valuable treasures, but there were only some worthless things left.

"Miss, this palace is really impoverished. Now that you are in charge, you have created trouble for yourself." Xiang Cao looked at the emptiness of the room, and couldn't help arguing for her.

Xi Rao just looked at it indifferently, there were some spider webs formed in the corners of the walls, and there were spiders crawling slowly on the webs.There is some thin dust on the ground, presumably it must be because no one has come to clean it for a long time.

With You Jing's eyes rolling, Xi Rao backed out and ordered the servant girl to lock the door.He took vanilla and went to the kitchen to check.

Perhaps yesterday she came to the mansion to show off her power, those lazy servants have behaved a lot, and they are more serious and diligent in doing things.Just looking at the shabby food, Mu Xirao felt a little helpless.

"Miss, you and the lord are the only ones in this palace, so there is no need for so many servants. According to Xiangcao, you can just resign." With no one there, Xiangcao finally said what was in her heart.

Although this Mo Ziyan is a prince, his body and intelligence are different from ordinary people after all, and he has no official position in the court. It is unrealistic to support such a large number of people with a little salary.It's not that she never thought of letting some servants go, but she just married into the palace, and she waved her hands in a big way, fearing that she would offend the concubine and the queen again, and then she would make too many enemies and trap herself. unfavorable.

"There is still half a year to receive the salary this year. Seeing that this is the midsummer season, but it will be autumn in more than a month. There is no inventory in this mansion. I am afraid that the cold winter will hit the road and the road will be blocked by heavy snow. When the time comes, the prices will soar. We are going to suffer from cold and hunger. We must find a way to earn some money while we still have time." Mu Xirao was worried when he thought of the small amount of money in the account.In modern times, I thought that the ancient kings and grandchildren had no worries about food and clothing, but I didn't expect that some of them were worse than ordinary people.

After bowing her head and thinking for a moment, Xi Rao thought of a good way to kill two birds with one stone.Let vanilla take the silver and go out of the house and go to the street.

The heat is blowing with the wind, and the street that was supposed to be bustling is sparsely populated.A group of people were crowded in the shady shop.

Xi Rao ran around several times with the vanilla before collecting the seeds and seedlings.Because it was too dark, the two went into a teahouse to rest.

The business in the teahouse was very good, and the tables inside were crowded with people chatting and drinking tea, chatting together in small groups.

Mu Xirao took vanilla and sat near the gate, and asked the boss to brew two cups of honeysuckle tea to relieve the heat.

The two sipped the tea, then sat and rested, but never thought that they would hear someone talking about themselves.

"The bride of Prince Rui's mansion was robbed halfway the day before yesterday. I heard that she was sent back to the mansion yesterday morning. I don't know what happened all day and night?" A middle-aged woman in orange clothes said Knocking the melon seeds, he yelled loudly at the person sitting next to him.

As soon as the woman finished speaking, the man sitting at the other table hurriedly answered, "I heard that the bride is an ugly monster from the Mu family. Could it be that those bandits don't have any women anymore, and they want to snatch even an ugly monster? I can only pick up other people's broken shoes."

"That bride's scandal is a bit ugly, but that prince is no match for anyone. This ugly woman matches the ugly man, and the trash matches the crippled. This is the best match in the world!"

As soon as this was said, the people sitting in the teahouse couldn't help laughing out loud, and some even said disgustingly: "Do you think the bride will let a foolish prince touch her? I'm afraid that foolish prince can't even know the bridal chamber. "

There was laughter one after another, and everyone in the room was talking and laughing about the two people who were the perfect match in the world.Xiang Cao, who was sitting at the door, couldn't take it anymore, got up and rushed in towards those laughing people.

"You gossips and vicious men have nothing to do all day and laugh at others. It's funny, isn't it your business? Believe it or not, I'll let the government arrest you all!" Vanilla pointed at them angrily and roared. There was a faint hint of ferocity on the small face.

The orange woman gave her a disdainful look, threw the melon seeds in her hand on the ground and said: "We are talking about things, we are afraid of what the government will do! Besides, we didn't talk about you, you are in a hurry! Little girl!" If you don’t stay in the house well and run out to show your face, what’s the matter, you want to find a man.”

As soon as the words came out, there was another burst of laughter in the teahouse, and everyone pointed and laughed, which made the face of this unknown girl flush.

She, standing in the crowd.He blushed with anger and stomped his feet uncontrollably, but he couldn't say a word, and there were tears in his eyes, and he stared at the group of people bitterly.

Mu Xirao remained calm, taking a sip of tea.This vanilla is a bit hasty, and always lacks a little careful consideration before doing things. Only by letting her suffer a little bit can she thrive.

"You guys, you're deceiving people too much!" Vanilla held back for a long time before choking out an innocuous sentence, and the cheeky group laughed even more complacently.

Putting the teacup in her hand back to its original place, Xirao looked back at the laughing crowd, got up and walked to the side of Xiangcao, glanced at her coldly and sternly reprimanded: "You don't have a brain If a vicious dog bites you, you have to bite back, you have to remember that you are a human, and that is a dog. How can a human and a dog compare themselves!"

Those who beat around the bush were called dogs, and that group of people were unhappy, so they scolded Mu Xirao after gnashing their teeth.The orange woman was even more dissatisfied. She stood in front of the crowd and said provocatively: "Since you call us dogs, and you still drink tea in the same room as dogs, aren't you the same kind as us? A dog, or an ugly, stupid bitch."

Ironic laughter followed one after another, vanilla's face was red and black, and he stood up a few steps and shouted: "You gangsters, you must be punished for your disrespect! Do you know that standing in front of you is... "

"Vanilla!" Mu Xirao interrupted when she was about to leave her identity, her eyes swept over the crowd with a cold light, and finally landed on the woman: "This man and the dog are exactly the same. We live together in the same room, but have you seen all the dignitaries keeping dogs as pets? What’s the fuss about having a cup of tea together! People don’t care about dogs.”

A group of popular people gritted their teeth again, and the owner of the teahouse hurriedly stepped forward and told the two of them to leave quickly.Mu Xirao didn't get angry, but only gave that person a cold look before warning: "You guys are gossiping about others behind their backs, no matter how bad they are, they are still dignified lords, but you can only stand here and stare at me! Today I will report the matter to the government, if you hear any gossip in the future, don't blame people for being rude!"

After Mu Xirao finished speaking, she took Xiangcao and left this place with her things.

"Let's go, don't be angry. It will be a big loss for you to spoil yourself because of a group of irrelevant popularity. Remember to use your brain when you do things in the future!" Walking out of the gate of the teahouse, Mu Xiluo saw that Xiangcao was still unhappy, so she began to persuade her.

Vanilla nodded, and the two of them carried the basket and disappeared into the incandescent heat.

Behind the teahouse, Mo Hanling, who was dressed in a gray robe, watched her disappearing back, and couldn't help but flash a smile.This woman seems to be much smarter than before. If Mo Ziyan is a normal prince and married a smart woman, he must not be underestimated.

With a flick of his robe, he turned around, and Mo Hanling, who originally wanted to enter the teahouse, suddenly left.He seemed to feel that a dangerous force was quietly growing.

When they returned to the palace, the two of them were already sweating profusely.Walking under the scorching sun is really like being sent into a steamer.Regardless of the sweat on their bodies, the two gathered all the servants in the house together.

Xi Rao sat in the shade, shaking a fan in her hand.The servants in the mansion were gathered under the sun, they seemed very dissatisfied, but they didn't dare to speak out.

"You all know the economic situation in the mansion. It is really difficult to support so many people with one person's salary. My lady, your concubine, thought of a self-sufficient way to make a fortune. We purchased these from outside. Now Let everyone divide the work and plant all these in the open space in the backyard. Everyone takes tools to the backyard, and the few strong men behind are responsible for carrying water and watering."

Vanilla put her hands behind her back, speaking at a moderate pace, and the servants of the mansion started talking about the words.As soon as this princess entered the mansion, she made a big show of power, and now she has to treat them as slaves.They were asked to dig the land to do farm work on such a hot day, and the group of people who were already lazy at work suddenly complained.

A few men who were not afraid of things refused to accept, so they stood up and retorted: "We are here to work in the mansion, not to do farm work. The prince never asked us to do these chores before, and the princess can't torture us like this as soon as she comes. people."

Seeing someone complaining, those timid and timid people also resisted with one voice.Vanilla's face sank, and she shouted loudly: "What are you yelling, it's not easy to make money in this world. If you feel that staying in the palace and suffering, then you don't have to stay here to suffer. The princess is just letting everyone If you grow something in the ground, all of you will complain. I see that you are all too lazy to do things, and you will scream when you do something. If anyone is yelling, get out of the palace!"

When the yelling servant saw Vanilla go crazy, he shut his mouth obediently and looked at her straight.

Seeing this, Xi Rao got up, waving her fan and walked under the scorching sun, with a smile on her lips, she looked at the disbelief in everyone's eyes and said with a smile: "This palace used to have no rules, no gaps, and every structure, but now I am in charge of the house, and anyone who refuses to accept can find another job, and I will never stop it. If you want to stay in this house, you have to obey my rules. If you have money, you will get more red envelopes during the Chinese New Year, everyone Figure it out."

After finishing speaking, Xi Rao asked Xiang Cao to bring a pot of water, and followed her to the open space in the backyard.

Although these servants were not convinced, but thinking that it was easy to do things in the palace after all, and the money was more profitable and stable than those outside, they reluctantly picked up the tools, and a mighty group of people rushed to the backyard.
