They pretend to be a loving couple in front of outsiders, but in private they respect each other like ice.
It has been like this for more than ten years.
Familiar depression and anger welled up in Xie Jun's heart, and his eyes swept over Yao Bi and Dian Cui: "You two, please step aside first."
Before the two maids could respond, Princess Yongning's cold voice sounded: "No need. They are all my confidants, and it doesn't matter if I have anything to say in front of them."
yes!
In the heart of Princess Yongning, the two maids are much more important than his husband-in-law who just shows off his appearance!
The anger in Xie Jun's heart rose, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his handsome face: "I was rash. How can I give orders to the people around the princess at will?"
Princess Yongning's eyebrows did not move: "As long as you understand clearly."
Xie Jun: "..."
Yao Bi Dian Cui's head dropped even lower.
Probably no one would have thought that the loving couple that was so well-known by the outside world was not worthy of the name at all...
Poor Xie Junma, he looked so prosperous, but in fact he endured humiliation. In front of Princess Yongning, he could never straighten his back or raise his head.
As expected, Xie Junma took a deep breath, opened his mouth again, and his attitude returned to gentleness: "My words were rash, please don't take it to heart, Princess."
There was a trace of contempt and disdain in Princess Yongning's eyes.
Xie Jun endured it again and again, and said softly: "Princess, do you have something to ask me?"
Princess Yongning did not mince words and asked directly: "Did you go to Chunjin Pavilion just now?"
It turned out to be for such a trivial matter. Xie Jun smiled nonchalantly and said, "Yes, Ming Niang hasn't seen me as her biological father for many days, and she misses her so much that she asked me to come over."
A small thing like hiring a cook is really not worth mentioning.
Princess Yongning glanced at Xie Jun and calmed down when she saw that his expression was as normal as usual.
It seems that Xie Mingxi did not reveal a single word.
Huh! She’s smart!
…
"Yao Bi, go and wait for the county horses to change their clothes and put them to bed." The commander of Yongning County ordered.
Yaobi's fair and tender face was slightly red, and her voice was soft.
The princess and the princess are in the same room, but it's just a show.
She had been married since she was fifteen years old. In the past four years, every time she returned to Xie's house on the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, she would serve Xie Jun at the banquet.
On weekdays in the princess's mansion, the princess rarely even has the opportunity to step into the princess's bedroom.
Only those close to Princess Yongning knew about this matter, and no one in the Xie family knew about it. Even Aunt Ding was kept in the dark.
Poor Aunt Ding, she is sour and jealous all day long. She has no idea that Princess Yongning has never put Xie Jun in her eyes.
A hint of gloom flashed in Xie Jun's eyes, but he said with a gentle smile: "It's been a tiring day, so the princess should rest early. I'll get up early tomorrow to take the princess back to the princess' mansion."
Princess Yongning didn't care at all whether Xie Jun was unwilling or not.
After Yao Bi left with Xie Jun, Princess Yongning's expression softened, and her eyes wandered around Dian Cui's slim figure: "Dian Cui, come and wait for me to change clothes and go to bed."
The tone of his voice was slightly raised, with a hint of teasing.
A blush appeared on Diancui's pretty face, her eyes moved, and she was extremely charming: "It's rare for the princess to come back to the house. How dare I wait for the princess to go to bed? It's better to call someone else to come in and wait on her!"
Princess Yongning was quite patient with Dian Cui, and was not annoyed when she heard this. She just said: "Come here quickly."
Dian Cui bit her lip, stepped forward and took off her clothes for Princess Yongning.
Suddenly, Diancui let out a soft cry, as if she had been touched somewhere.
This tender moan is soft and crispy.
Soon, the sound of undressing was heard again.
The gauze beside the bed was pulled off impatiently, vaguely covering the bed. However, after a moment, the bed shook slightly, and the gauze also trembled.
…
The next morning.
Chunjin Pavilion.
Fangqiao lingered outside the door uneasily, trying to knock on the door several times, but hesitated for a moment and then let go.
It doesn't matter if you get up late on weekdays. Today, the princess is in the mansion, and the third lady has to get up early to go to Yonghe Hall to pay her respects.
However, in the past few days, the third lady had been cold and indifferent to her, an eldest maid. After thinking about it for some reason, she became less courageous...
Fangqiao glanced at her and called Congyu Fuyu: "It's getting late, you two go and wake up the lady."
Congyu and Fuyu both shook their heads: "Miss, I have told you not to call the door at will."
Fangqiao twitched the corner of her mouth and deliberately emphasized her tone to scare the two maids: "If the young lady wakes up late and delays her greetings, which makes the commander angry, can you two bear the responsibility?"
Congyu and Fuyu looked at each other. Then Congyu responded honestly: "We can't afford it."
Before Fangqiao could finish her breath, she heard Fuyu say: "But we dare not disobey the young lady's order."
Fangqiao: "..."
By the way, she stayed up late to embroider one purse, but she still had nineteen purses to embroider.
Fangqiao left silently.
Congyu Fuyu continued to wait outside the door until the young lady's voice came from the door: "Come in."
The two little maids breathed a sigh of relief, responded, and pushed the door open.
A young girl wearing only a middle coat sat beside the bed, tilting her head slightly, smiling slightly at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, giving off a lazy charm.
I was dumbfounded when I saw Jade Fuyu, and I couldn't find any words to describe the beautiful scenery in front of me.
Xie Mingxi laughed: "What are you two doing standing there stupidly? Why don't you come over and wait for me to change clothes and freshen up?"
The two maids came to their senses and hurriedly answered the call to serve.
The two of them had been working extremely hard, but what they had done before was menial work such as sweeping, and the fine work of serving closely could not be done in a short while.
It's just a matter of cleaning your face and changing clothes, but combing your hair is really not an easy task.
Congyu looked at the crooked bun she wore, her face flushed with shame and she said, "Miss, I am clumsy, so let Sister Fangqiao comb your hair for me!"
It's really ugly.
Xie Mingxi looked at it for a moment and said calmly: "No need."
It's a good idea to go and pay your respects to your aunt-in-law.
Then Princess Yongning was allowed to be arrogant and proud for another half month.
The more complacent you are at this moment, the harder and more painful you will be in the future, and the more you will be angry and angry.
Congyu summoned up the courage to ask: "Why did the young lady suddenly let the servants come close to serve her?"
This problem has been bothering Congyu for three days.
Fuyu was also confused and looked over.
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly: "Of course it's because you two have strengths that Fang Qiao can't match."
Congyu Fuyu was filled with joy after being praised, and happily followed Xie Mingxi to the Yonghe Hall.
…
Princess Yongning returns to the princess's mansion on the first and fifteenth day of every month, and has breakfast the next day before returning to the princess's mansion.
This has been the case for more than ten years.
Every time Aunt Ding went to Yonghe Hall to pay her respects, she would try her best to comfort herself. She could only endure it for two days a month, and the rest of the days were finally comfortable.
Furthermore, Xie Jun would return home every three to five days. He never neglected her and treated her with kindness and consideration.
However, in front of Princess Yongning, Xie Jun almost never looked at her. His eyes occasionally glanced at her, and they were particularly indifferent.
Xie Yuanting stood next to Xie Jun, more ruthless than his own father, and refused to take him over with the corner of his eye.
Aunt Ding felt sour and bitter in her heart, and she clenched the silk handkerchief tightly with her right hand.
"Why hasn't Ming Niang come yet?" Princess Yongning was a little impatient and glanced at Aunt Ding warningly.
Aunt Ding's heart tightened, and she subconsciously squeezed out a smile and explained: "Ming Niang is still young, and she is growing tall, so she can't help but sleep a little. I will send someone to Chunjin Pavilion to call her over."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Mingxi's figure appeared at the door of Yonghe Hall.
Aunt Ding breathed a sigh of relief and looked over with a smile. At a glance, she saw Xie Mingxi's hair that was not neatly combed.
Aunt Ding: "..."
Xie Mingxi saluted: "Daughter Mingxi, I would like to send my regards to my father and mother."
Xie Jun was also a little unhappy, but he didn't say much in front of Princess Yongning and said calmly: "Get up!"
Princess Yongning glanced at it and raised her lips slightly: "Ming Niang, the annual entrance examination of Lianchi Academy will be held in half a month. You and Yun Niang sign up for the exam together."
