Man'er watched everyone leave, feeling a little worried in his heart. What happened today?
Everyone seemed to be targeting her, even Ah Si and Lu Ya ignored her and even yelled at her.
Now everyone is going to eat, leaving her alone here. She doesn't care about working more, but she is a little sad to be left behind.
Aunt Qing looked at her and walked over slowly, her eyes filled with different emotions. Before she could speak, she heard Yuan Qingling call from the door again, "Aunt Qing?"
Please get up, I have something to tell you."
She gently clenched her fist, paused, and looked back at Yuan Qingling, her eyes filled with obedience, "What are your orders, Crown Princess?"
"Come, let me tell you something."
Yuan Qingling said.
Aunt Qing endured it and turned around to follow Yuan Qingling out. However, after leaving, Yuan Qingling's instructions were all trivial matters. It didn't have to be done by her, any servant could do it.
After calling her around for a while, it was past meal time and she rushed to the kitchen. There was some leftovers, so she put some in a food box and carried them to the warehouse.
Except for Man'er, there was no one else in the warehouse. They were all outside visiting the new mansion. The master and the girl were mingling, having fun and having fun.
She sneaked into the warehouse, while Man'er was still sorting things. When he saw someone coming in, Man'er raised his head and smiled at her.
Aunt Qing looked at her, "Your name is Man'er?"
"Yes, Aunt Qing, my name is Man'er!"
Man'er straightened up and thumped his back. Then he heard a gurgling sound coming from his stomach. Man'er lowered his head in embarrassment.
Aunt Qing sighed inaudibly, put the food box on the coffee table, and said, "I have some food here, you come over and eat."
Man'er hurriedly waved his hand, "No, I ate yours, what did you eat?"
I'm not hungry, you eat first."
“Come and eat!”
Aunt Qing's eyes were complicated and she said, "I can't finish it by myself, so I won't waste it."
Man'er stroked his belly and stretched his neck to take a look. He saw the delicious aroma of the dishes. He couldn't help but swallowed and smiled, "Then... waste is not good. You can't waste food."
She then sat down and waited for Aunt Qing to share it with her.
Aunt Qing brought out all the food, looked at her and said, "Eat quickly."
Man'er had suffered from hunger, so when he saw the food, he was not polite and said, "Let's eat together."
She has never been elegant in her eating habits. When she was following Chu Mingyang, because she was always around people, she had to wolf down her meals so that she could rush back to serve her immediately. This habit could not be changed even in the Prince of Chu's Mansion.
Aunt Qing didn't eat, she just looked at her steadily, a trace of mist slowly rising in her eyes, with uncontrollable choking, "You haven't eaten enough, have you?"
"I didn't eat today," Man'er stretched his neck to swallow the meat. Seeing that she hadn't eaten, he was startled, "Did I scare you?"
"No, I'm not hungry. I ate too much for breakfast, and they left some food for me. I thought I couldn't waste it, so I brought it to you to eat."
Aunt Qing lowered her eyes to hide the emotions in her eyes.
"Oh, I'll eat it then."
Man'er buried his head in eating again.
Aunt Qing waited until she had finished eating, then asked softly: "Are you willing to come over and serve me in the palace?"
"no!"
Man'er shook his head, swallowed his meal and said, "I have to serve the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess is about to give birth to a baby."
"Have you always been by the Crown Princess's side?"
Man'er said: "Not always, I have served other masters before."
She smiled naively and put down the bowl and chopsticks, "It's good to be in Prince Chu's Mansion. The Crown Princess treats me very well, and Miss Ah Si and the others all like me very much."
"Ah Si is the girl who scolded you today?"
Aunt Qing's face darkened.
Man'er defended, "Miss Ah Si is not usually like this. Today...she may not be in a good mood."
"I can just take it out on you when I'm in a bad mood?"
Aunt Qing said coldly, "Who are these people?
You must teach me a lesson when you turn around."
Man'er was unhappy and said, "You can't say that to Miss Ah Si. She is a very nice person. She gives me everything that is good for her."
Aunt Qing looked at her, "Yeah, I'll beat you up and feed you, right?"
"It wasn't a beating, we were competing in martial arts. I'm just not as good at martial arts as Miss Ah Si, so I just lost to her. However, every time she won, she would make me delicious food and give me gifts."
Man'er stretched out his hand to hold the hairpin, "Look, this hairpin was given to me by Miss Asi."
Aunt Qing looked at the Ruyi cloud-patterned hairpin on her head. Although it was of good quality, to the lady of your family, it was just a toy. Giving it to any slave would not necessarily hurt her, and it would not affect those people.
In his eyes, she is just a slave who can take out her anger at will.
A trace of sadness flashed through her eyes, "You'd better come to the Prince's Mansion. Here, you'll be fed every meal, and no one will make you feel wronged, no one will make you angry, and no one will beat you."
"Thank you for your kindness, but I really can't come."
Ah Si thought this person was a little strange, so he stopped saying, "Thank you for bringing me food. I have to work. I'll finish it early and go back early."
Aunt Qing reached out and grabbed her wrist with great strength, and said in a deep voice: "You must come to the palace!"
Man'er was shocked, "You..." Yuan Qingling came in from the door with a big belly, and said with a smile: "Aunt Qing, Prince Shun's palace is short of people, I know it, I have already asked someone to arrange a job, you can
You can't rob the people around me."
Aunt Qing let go of Ah Si, lowering her eyes and saying nothing, but her expression was a little cold.
Man'er breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Yuan Qingling come in. Although this strange mother-in-law gave her food, she spoke strangely and made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Man'er, Ah Si brought you sweet-scented osmanthus cake. Go quickly."
Yuan Qing Ling said to Man'er gently.
"But the work..." Yuan Qingling smiled, "No need, the people in Prince Shun's Mansion can handle it, you go ahead."
Man'er said oh, thanked Aunt Qing again, turned around and left.
Aunt Qing quickly looked up at her, and her hand made a subconscious movement to hold Man'er, but when it touched Yuan Qingling's sharp eyes, she hesitated for a moment, slowly retracted her hand, and looked at Yuan Qingling, darkly.
A flash of ruthlessness flashed through his eyes.
Yuan Qingling turned around and closed the door. As if she could hear her anger burning, she asked calmly: "What is your relationship with Man'er?"
This sentence was asked with her back to Aunt Qing. When she turned her head, she met the murderous aura in Aunt Qing's eyes. The murderous aura was emitted instantly. She couldn't suppress it herself, so she was exposed to Yuan Qing.
In front of Ling.
She did not restrain herself and stared at Yuan Qingling, "I don't know what the princess said."
"you know."
Yuan Qingling was not afraid of the Xiao Sha in her eyes. Instead, he took a step forward and looked at her, "Everything you saw today was a test designed by me. Man'er did not live a bad life, and Ah Si also deliberately did it in front of you.
The purpose of being cruel to her is to see your reaction."
Aunt Qing laughed slowly. Her smile was very weird, her smile was superficial, but her eyes were even colder. "Princess, I wonder what you want to test?"
