Chapter 148 (1/2)
”Who is responsible for today's fruit? Recruit from the truth!” Father-in-law Lian, who is in charge of the lotus garden, shrieked.
The servant girl in charge knelt down with some of her men. Look at me and I look at you, but the servant girl in charge trembled and pointed to the bird's nest and said it was her.
The bird's nest looked calm and kowtowed to admit his mistake: ”it's the slave's responsibility.”
No more explanation.
”We know.” Father Lian narrowed his eyes and looked back and forth between the servant girl and the bird's nest.
The servant girl quietly relaxed. She thought she had muddled through and pushed the pot to the bird's nest to solve the new worker. She was a little excited. But father-in-law Lian undoubtedly threw her from the cloud to the dust: ”it's your duty to entrust others to do it. Since peeling sour oranges is so difficult for you, you don't have to be responsible for the supply of fruits in the future, Be a floor sweeper. ”
She raised her head in horror. What he meant was to demote her from a third-class servant girl to a worker. Her status and monthly rules have become lower. How can he do it“ Father Lian, I'm wrong. Please give me another chance and I'll never do it again! ”
She just wanted to make Xianglu. No one would find out if she pushed her work to her people twice at a time. But she never thought that she would lose her future once. What link went wrong? Was it coral informer?
She stared at the bird's nest, her bloodshot eyes full of hatred.
Father Lian: ”how can I give you a chance? One second before, the princess personally gave the sour orange to the sixth prince. The next second, she looked at the sour orange that was not good. The new one was taken from your hand. You wouldn't say that our family was blind and recognized the wrong person? ”
The servant girl was so frustrated that she wanted to go back to a few hours ago. She would not deal with it casually.
Mammy raised the servant girl, the other two servant girls withdrew, and the bird's nest was still left in place.
Father-in-law Lian asked, ”do you know why our family left you?”
”Slaves should not overstep their responsibilities.”
”Should I be punished?”
”When punished, coral recognizes punishment.”
Without a trace of hesitation and hesitation, father-in-law Lian stared at her and smiled for a long time, ”OK, give you ten boards and go outside to receive punishment.”
”Father Xie Lian.”
Before the bird's nest quit, father-in-law Lian said, ”in the future, you will be responsible for the supply of fruits. After receiving the punishment, make a plate of small rabbit sour orange. Don't let our family down.”
Overnight, she exchanged her identity with the servant girl in charge.
The bird's nest blessed father-in-law Lian. There was still no sadness or joy on his face, as if the promotion had nothing to do with her.
……
Pray for the palace.
Sun Changxin, the sixth princess, sat in the imperial chair closest to the door in the main hall, looking forward to it. From time to time, she asked the servant girls around her, and told the kitchen to warm the mutton soup and don't let it cool.
The sixth Lord trotted in with sour oranges at the same speed as the boy who ran errands to report. Bypassing the screen wall, he immediately saw that the man on the tip of his heart was helped up by the servant girl and went to the door to meet him. He stepped faster. He came to sun Changxin in three or two steps, handed the plate to the servant girl next to him, waved back the servant girls who came to serve him to take off his fur, warmed their hands and helped sun Changxin sit on the throne. He was angry:
”How can I bother you to wait for me in the main hall? It's windy here and you're hurt. What should I do?”
”If you wait around the princess, won't you persuade her to pay attention to her body?”
He turned and talked to the servant girls again.
”Don't blame them. I asked them. If they don't listen to me, they'll beat them.” Sun Changxin was wrapped in a cloak and looked petite, but her face was pale. She was a little haggard and weak. She said, ”there was warm ground in the hall. I asked them to put up a screen before it stopped. Why did you come back so late? Zhuang Xuan has something important to tell you? ”
