Lee's's plans were made loud and clear. She had predicted that Tang Qing would be dull and dumb in the past and thought that she wouldn't be able to think of this.
Unexpectedly, both Tang Qing and the palace mama saw through her plans.
So Kitchen's plan was not to harden Tang Qing, but to ruin her reputation.
If Tang Qing was truly ignorant and thought that Feng Qiu was good to her, she would just sit there and enjoy herself. She believed that before she had even finished her meal, her reputation of not respecting the elders and wasting had already spread throughout the entire Prince Consort's Mansion.
It wasn't easy for them to create so many tricks with a single meal.
”Eldest Miss, you have to help this old servant talk. This old servant has served you for more than ten years, don't you know who this old servant is?” Lee's looked at Tang Qing with a wronged expression as she wiped the corners of her eyes.
Tang Qing didn't follow her thoughts and instead looked at her hesitantly. ”I haven't been out for the past half month, and I know that mother and a few other sisters are all at Ru Su's place. You're in charge of the Kitchen, and yet you don't know all this?”
She revealed a shocked expression, as if she did not expect the Lee's to not care about anything at all.
Lee's's expression froze, thinking that the Madam and Miss Ru Su were obviously hiding this from the people in the courtyard, how did Tang Qing know about this?
She hated the person who leaked the information in her heart, but a smile appeared on her face. ”So the eldest young miss was afraid of this, and this old servant was worried that the eldest young miss was dissatisfied with the food sent by the kitchen.”
Especially now when Eldest Miss was injured, how could it be the same? The young miss only needs to be at ease with the meal, the Grand Princess will not blame the young miss. ”
After Tang Qing heard this, she did not reveal a relaxed expression. Instead, she coldly stared at her.
When she saw that Lee's's whole body had stiffened and the smile on his face was growing weaker, she finally said coldly: ”I thought you were someone who understood things, but I never expected you to be such an unloyal person!”
Lee's's face turned white, she kneeled on the ground and said, feeling wronged.
”What is Eldest Miss saying? This old servant is loyal to his heart and has always been very satisfied with the princess' work. Right now, I have only made a few mistakes in the food, but I have managed to correct it in time, so why must Eldest Miss make things difficult for me like this? ”
Her meaning was that it was as if Tang Qing did not eat these meals because of, but instead took the chance to take revenge on her.
It was only an old servant who cried and shouted after a few sentences from his master, afraid that others would not know that she had been wronged. He even brought up Feng Qiu, as if her words contained a threat.
Tang Qing mocked in her heart but her expression was ice-cold.
She slapped the table and said angrily, ”If you are truly sincere to your mother, then why didn't you persuade me to suffer with you and your mother, and instead coaxed me to throw your mother aside? Is this what you meant? ”
Lee's immediately cried out in injustice, ”Eldest Miss really scares this old servant to death, how would this old servant dare to teach you how to do it? This old servant only followed the princess' instructions, to let Eldest Miss eat more, take care of her body, how can you go so far?”
She cried out as she kneeled on the ground and continuously kowtowed. Before long, her forehead turned purple.
The courtyard that Tang Qing was living in was not big, and not far away was a fork in the road where people were walking in and out. Normally, people outside would be able to hear a lot of noise from the courtyard, but with Lee's crying like this, people would think that she was dead.
”Eldest Miss, this old servant has been in the mansion for more than twenty years, even if I don't have any merits, I still have to work hard. When Eldest Miss's mother was here, she still had a lot of trust in this old servant, if not, the princess wouldn't have specially let this old servant take care of the food in Eldest Miss's room.”
