North courtyard.

Pearl Court.

This is the courtyard where the fourth girl, Xie Qi, lives.

It was time to change the dressing again. Xie Qi was sitting in front of the dressing table. The scar on her forehead the size of half a copper coin was reflected in the bronze mirror. The maid said, "The ointment bought by the imperial concubine is really effective. I have only used it for one day.

The scars have faded a lot.”

Xie Qi grimaced and said, "Can such a valuable ointment be ineffective?"

Not only was the price expensive, but her sister-in-law had to give them four houses to help them buy it. Thinking of the hardship she suffered and causing her parents to pay and suffer, Xie Qi couldn't help but greet Yao Yun'er and the old lady from the bottom of her heart.

Although the rain was not what Yao Yun'er wanted, Yao Yun'er didn't have the consciousness to be a guest at all. She was superior to the girls from the Jingnan Palace. She had to run the carriage at the front, urging the young man to run faster all the way, so that

She and Xie Li's carriage could only follow as fast as possible. She was lucky enough to be fine, but it caused her to hit her head.

Yao Yun'er must bear at least half of the responsibility for this disaster, if not all. He didn't even pay a single cent for the consultation and didn't come to visit her, yet he had the nerve to continue to stay in their Jingnan Prince's Mansion.

This is the granddaughter of the old lady. She wanted to try another cousin, but she was sent back long ago.

The fourth wife helped apply the medicine and said, "The Crown Princess said that she will be almost fully recovered in half a month, so please be patient."

Xie Qi nodded obediently.

At this time, a maid came in and said, "Madam, the Crown Princess sent a maid to deliver something."

The fourth wife smiled and said, "Please come in quickly."

The maid left, and soon Hongling came in carrying a food box, followed by a little maid holding a cloud brocade.

Hongling Fushen said, "The Crown Princess roasted some vegetables and meat, and ordered the slaves to bring them to the fourth wife and the fourth girl to taste. They are still hot. The Crown Princess told them to eat them as soon as possible. The taste will be much worse when they are cold."

The fourth wife couldn't wait to order the maid, "Bring it over quickly."

One maid took the food box from Hong Ling and put the food on the round table, while the other maid took Yun Jin.

The fourth wife ate the roasted lamb on skewers and was full of praise.

Xie Qi ate the grilled mushrooms and said in surprise, "The grilled mushrooms are so delicious."

Although she was praising the Crown Princess's cooking skills, as the Crown Princess's maid, Hongling couldn't be more proud.

The fourth wife knew that Hongling was the maid who was most valued by Su Tang besides Pinellia ternata and Poria cocos. Since she decided to be friends with Su Tang in the future, she must take good care of these maids.

The fourth wife rewarded Hongling with one tael of silver, and the other little maid five coins.

Hong Ling thanked the reward generously and was about to leave when another maid came from outside the bead curtain and said, "Madam, the old lady is giving me two pieces of Sichuan brocade. She ordered the maid to bring them to her. She is outside the door."

The fourth wife was startled at first, and then a mocking smile flashed in her eyes.

She has respected the old lady for more than ten years, but she never knew that the old lady was also a bitch. She usually coaxed and supported them and ignored them. Her daughter hurt her forehead, and she begged hard to get it back.

It was the old lady's disdain.

Today, I helped the Crown Princess to make the old lady angry, but her attitude towards the four brothers improved, and she rewarded her daughter with two pieces of Sichuan brocade.

The old lady's move was enough to prove that their four bedrooms were right towards the Crown Princess.

The fourth wife's eyes swept over the Sichuan brocade indifferently, and her tone was also light, "Thank you to the old lady for the reward. I will go back and report to the old lady. When Qi'er recovers from her injury, I will thank her again."

The maid nodded.

The fourth wife continued to eat mutton kebabs.

Hong Ling said goodbye and left.

The maid looked at the fourth wife eagerly. When she came in, she saw Hongling holding a purse in her hand. She thought the fourth wife would also reward her.

A reward-giving job like this would be rewarded more or less, and usually everyone would rush to give it away. It was only because she had a good relationship with Sun's mother that she got this job. As a result, when she came out under the bright sun, the maid of the Crown Princess had

But she, the old lady's maid, didn't.

After leaving the north courtyard, the maid's face was filled with anger.

After returning to Songhe Hall, the maid reported this to the old lady, "I went to give the Fourth Miss Shu Brocade, and it happened that the Crown Princess's maid was sending Yun Brocade and some barbecue. The Fourth Lady rewarded the Crown Princess's two maids, but did not reward the servant.

.”

The old lady was serving tea. When she heard this, her brows furrowed and a cold light flashed through her eyes.

Besides, the fourth wife and her daughter Xie Qi enjoyed eating mutton skewers. The fourth master smelled the aroma as soon as he walked in and said, "What are you eating? It's so fragrant."

The fourth wife stood up and said, "You came back just in time. I was just thinking about whether to leave a few strings for you."

The fourth master stepped forward, and the fourth wife handed him a skewer of mutton and said with a smile, "This is the barbecue cooked by the imperial concubine. I just asked the maid to deliver it. I also gave Qier a piece of brocade."

The fourth master smiled and said, "The prince's concubine is willing to help Qier buy ointment, which is enough to give our fourth house face. I didn't expect that she would also give Qier a brocade. It's rare to see such a generous person."

The fourth wife smiled and said, "Not only is she generous, she is also smart and generous."
