006 , the prince hosted a banquet
Chunbi was worried and could only follow behind.
The little master is good at everything, good-tempered, easy to talk to, but willing to run out.
Over the course of a year, she gradually got used to it.
Liu Qiqi dragged her injured and inconvenient body, squeezed out the fat residue, and sent some to Brother Liu.
When she walked to the street, someone recognized her that day when she took the risk to save the child and greeted her warmly.
Along the way, I learned that Aunt Wang’s old hen was lost; Uncle Li’s grandson went to Hongming Academy to study; Wang Ergou, the tofu seller next door, and the second daughter of the owner of Minsheng Restaurant across the street were listening to the opera; the proprietress of Caoji Restaurant bought another
Dressed in red, he showed off his body; Ma Laohan, who was selling candied haws on a stick, was hit by a carriage...
Listening to various gossips along the way, Liu Ru came to Brother Liu's pork shop. He happened to be away, so Liu Qiqi left the fat residue and left.
On the way back, I sold a lot of ingredients on the way, thinking I could have another big meal tonight.
Such a magical day, so comfortable!
After shopping for groceries, I felt it was still early, so I went to Yipin Teahouse for tea.
At this point, everyone had eaten and had nothing to do, so they came to the teahouse to relax.
Liu Qiqi is also one of them.
She had food, drink, and people around her to take care of her. Why should she be like herself in her previous life, working so hard to make wedding clothes for others?
Life is still comfortable now.
Eat snacks, drink tea, say a few words to people you meet, and drink tea quietly if you don't meet them, and listen to other people's gossip.
Many people said that King Jin had returned triumphantly, and how many people were concerned about the position of Princess Jin.
There are also some little gossips.
When Ma was arresting the prisoner, he bumped into the little girl from Tianxian Tower and couldn't get up for a long time.
System: [Ma Baotou had an affair with a little girl, and it was set up by his wife Du Shi! 】
Liu Qiqi:【Bull!】
Li Shangshu's grandson, Li Junxian, has acquired another beauty, Xu Lingqin, who will be brought in tomorrow.
System: [Xu Lingqin deliberately seduced Li Junxian, but Xu Lingqin's father, Xu Xiucai, discovered it. Xu Xiucai went to make trouble, but he had no other choice, so he agreed to enter as a concubine. ]
Liu Qiqi, [This is okay! 】
The son of shopkeeper Ma of the Hutongkou restaurant is not his biological son. Now there is a fierce quarrel. Shopkeeper Ma wants to divorce his wife.
System: [The child is the son of Mr. Wang and the chef.]
Liu Qiqi: [Watching and stealing, great job!]
Liu Qiqi listened to other people's gossip and knew the secret histories of these people from the system, but she didn't know that her current whereabouts had all fallen into the ears of King Jin.
...
Liu Qiqi's master and servant have just returned to Prince Jin's Mansion.
I heard some great news. The prince is hosting a banquet, and all his concubines must attend.
Chunbi was a little happy at first, but when she heard that the little master was not the only one, she became a little unhappy.
Liu Qiqi didn't care. After returning to the house, she leaned on the soft bed like a cat without bones and picked up the storybook to read.
Chunbi sighed when she saw her little master like this.
"Okay, don't think too much. I'm hungry. Let's go see what's delicious."
Chunbi looked at the unmotivated little master.
I only know how to eat and play all day long. When King Jin didn't come back, it could be said that I was recharging my energy. What about now?
Wanting to preach, Liu Qiqi waved her hand impatiently.
She could only go to the big kitchen first and inquire about the situation.
Liu Qiqi's ears were finally clear. She leaned on the soft couch and understood Chunbi's thoughts.
In her opinion, what's so good about competing for favor is that her life is now comfortable.
Eat when you're hungry and go out and spend money when you have money. Isn't this a good life?
Chunbi acted quickly and brought back four dishes and one soup.
Chunbi laid out the food and told the news she had inquired about.
"Little Master, just now Little Master Shao went to Little Master Sun, and I don't know what he sent."
Speaking of this, Chunbi felt aggrieved for the little master.
The ten mistresses were all given to Prince Jin by the Queen Mother. Logically speaking, they all have the same cost of food and clothing. Why should the other mistresses always have to overwhelm the mistress in everything?
When Chunbi saw that the young master was silent, she started to murmur again, "The prince obviously likes the young master more, how can he let them take advantage of him?"
Liu Qiqi was eating when she heard this and was so frightened that she choked.
Chunbi hurriedly got busy, and when Liu Qiqi came over, she continued to talk, "My lord, why don't we take care of it too?"
Liu Qiqi didn't care, "Those are useless."
"Why didn't it work?"
"Shao Nianqing's father is the prefect of Jiangnan." He is also a corrupt official and very rich.
Chunbi's face darkened slightly.
"Sun Rumei's aunt is a concubine in the palace."
"Where is the young master Tang?" Chunbi was unhappy. Why did she feel that the young master was trying to embolden other people's ambitions and destroy her own prestige?
"Tang Xiaoyue's father is a wealthy businessman in Yangzhou."
Chunbi still didn't give up, "Where is Xiaozhu Gu? She doesn't have any prominent family background, right?"
"You should have seen the wooden hairpin on Gu Ling's head."
"Yes." It's just a broken piece of wood, and it's so ugly. I really don't know if the little master did it on purpose.
"The hairpin on her head is made of ebony."
"What's so good about ebony?" Chunbi curled her lips.
Liu Qiqi explained, "The royal family uses rosewood, and this ebony is more precious than rosewood."
Chunbi was dumbfounded.
How can a humble hairpin be so valuable?
"You don't know a lot."
Seeing that the innocent little girl was frightened, Liu Qiqi couldn't bear it. Now that King Jin is back, it would be a good thing to give her a beating first.
Except for herself, all the ten maids selected by the Queen Mother have backgrounds.
Chunbi was really frightened and remained silent all afternoon.
evening.
Butler Hu and many maids got busy.
Liu Qiqi acted as if nothing was wrong, nestling on the sofa, reaching for the tea with just the right temperature, eating exquisite snacks, and reading the storybook that had just been published. She felt so comfortable on this day!
Chunbi rarely spoke, and waited quietly beside her.
Liu Qiqi looked at poor Chunbi, "What is the name of Li Shangshu's grandson?"
Chunbi's eyes lit up, "Li Junxian."
"What's the beauty's name?"
"Xu Lingqin."
"Yes, her name is Xu Lingqin, and she is the daughter of Xu Xiucai. This is a high-profile marriage."
Chunbi got excited and said, "Xiu Xiucai has failed many times. I really don't know what he is still busy with at his age."
"According to Xu Xiucai's talent and learning, he can be a master." Liu Qiqi knew in her heart that Xu Xiucai failed many times because it had nothing to do with the court. She didn't know who was behind Li Shangshu's line.
Xu Lingqin's brain circuit is fast enough.
The water in Li Shangshu's mansion is also deep enough. I don't know how long she can hold on.
The two were chatting when there was movement outside the door.
"Is Sister Liu here?"
Hearing the commotion, he knew that the person coming was Shao Nianqing, the young master of Shao whom he mentioned not long ago.
The two of them were not familiar with each other, so they called her "Sister Liu". Shao Nianqing's attitude was quite direct!
Liu Qiqi put away her script and glanced at Chunbi, who went to the door to pick someone up.
Just as he arrived at the door, Shao Nianqing happened to walk in.
"Slave, please see Mr. Shao."
Shao Nianqing ignored Chunbi who was saluting, and his eyes fell on Liu Qiqi.
"Sister Liu, why haven't you changed your clothes yet?" Shao Nianqing said, flicking the expensive fox fur cloak on his body.
Ding dong——
System: [This fox cloak was taken from the tribute by the Jiangnan prefect.]
Liu Qiqi: [Haha, you are brave enough.]
