Huang Beiyue glanced at the basket lightly, opened the door, "Go in."
Peixiang was overjoyed and quickly carried the basket in.
"This is the dish cooked by the cook for Aunt Qin. I kept some specially. Miss Third, you can try it and see if you like it."
Peixiang put the dishes on the table one by one.
Three dishes and one soup, this kind of treatment is a five-star standard compared to before. In the past, cold steamed buns were the best meal.
Huang Beiyue held the chopsticks and put one hand on her chin, "Aren't you afraid that Aunt Qin will know if you steal vegetables?"
"Miss Third is joking, you are the serious master of this house." Peixiang knelt down quickly and kowtowed three times, her fair forehead turning red, "I was blinded by lard before, and I offended Miss
, Miss, please don’t remember the villain’s fault.”
Huang Beiyue took a chopstick of food into her mouth and ate it slowly. It was her first time to taste ancient food. It tasted really good. She was not afraid of poisoning the incense, even if she had the courage to do so.
"Peixiang, if I want to argue with you, I will kill you yesterday."
"Yes, yes, thank you Miss for not killing me!" Peixiang continued to kowtow.
"Get up." Huang Beiyue raised her hand, "There are a few things I want to ask you."
"Third Miss, just ask, I will definitely tell you everything." Peixiang quickly expressed her loyalty.
After what happened last night, she has completely understood that this third lady is no longer the cowardly and incompetent third lady she used to be. There will definitely be a big change in the eldest princess's mansion in the future!
Aunt Qin, Aunt Xue and others are, in the final analysis, just the master's concubines. Even if things are straightened out in the future, they cannot make the final decision in the eldest princess's house.
When the eldest princess was here, even the master had no right to speak. Although the eldest princess Huiwen has passed away, she still leaves behind this noble person with royal blood, the title of princess, and the wealthy Qinghe County in the south.
Princess Beiyue!
Even though the eldest princess is gone, there is still the queen mother who always thinks about the third young lady. Xi and the princess also often come to the mansion. During the New Year and festivals, the emperor also gives many rewards to the eldest princess' mansion!
These are not looking at the Xiao family's face, but the eldest princess!
If the third young lady hadn't been too cowardly and incompetent in the past, how could Aunt Qin and Aunt Xue dare to be so arrogant?
Now that the young lady is no longer cowardly, it is natural for her to take back everything that should be hers. Following Aunt Qin, being beaten and scolded every day is not counted, she will never get ahead, she can only be a little maid.
Humph! Why not follow the third young lady as early as possible? When the third young lady takes charge of the eldest princess's mansion in the future, she will also be a hero. By then, wherever she goes, she will not be famous? Why should she be such a useless maid!
Peixiang's future is bright and beautiful. How could Huang Beiyue, who is used to seeing people's hearts, not understand?
However, she didn't say anything. She just asked: "In the past few years, who has been managing the tax revenue of the eldest princess and my fief?"
Sure enough, the third lady has already started to ask about taxes!
Peixiang looked happy and quickly told everything she knew.
The eldest princess Huiwen was the most popular among the people. Her fiefdom was Miryang, and the people were simple and honest. Everyone loved the eldest princess, so the people worked hard in farming, and the annual tax revenue was a large amount.
Huang Beiyue was the only princess with a fiefdom in the entire Nanyi Kingdom. The prosperous Qinghe County in the south had been a land of plenty since ancient times.
