Queen of flowers - chapter 111

Yong Ruo asked Jiao Tong to equip Zhu Ying’s room with a desk, pen, ink, paper and other things. She also said, “In the future, Zhu Ying will be in charge of going out with me, and will personally serve me daily. Don’t bother her, otherwise I won’t spare you! Do you understand me?”

Jiao Tong, Hua Rou, Yujing and others agreed very quietly and promised that they would not trouble Zhu Ying with these daily chores.

After explaining the matter, Yong Ruo waved her hand, “If there is nothing else, just go back!”

Jiao Tong and others left.

Zhu Ying showed her hesitations, “Today in Shou’an courtyard, the slaves’ hands were cramped and I accidentally dropped the tea cup. I’ve never received the Madam’s reward. I don’t know now …”

She glanced at the tea on Yong Ruo’s desk, as if asking her if she wanted to award her a cup of tea. Such a reward without sterilization drugs, she could drink many cups of it!

Yong Ruo smiled slightly and picked up the book on the table again, “We were fated to be master and servant. Since the tea cup fell from your hands at that time, it is also God’s will. There is no need. Leave it!”

Zhu Ying had to bow down uneasily.

Yong Ruo and her maids Hua Rou, Yu Jing, and other girls talked about Zhu Ying’s tea incident in the Shou’an hall.

She said a little ironically, “I was just trying to demonstrate the power difference to let her know her place. So after she comes here, she would not cause trouble thinking that she was Shen Taifei’s person. But she even had a cramp in her hand and dropped the cup directly, which was also funny! “

Hua Rou, Yu Jing and others laughed. Yu Jing smiled and said, “When the slave saw what happened, I was sad! When the slave first met Furen, why didn’t I get a cup of tea ? Did Furen not look at the slave, was I lacking?”

After smiling, Yong Ruo said, “Tonight, Zhu Ying will surely ask you to see if my family really has such a custom of rewarding new slaves tea. At that time, you should mention to her that for a slave the most important thing is loyalty. Tell her not to rely on herself as a person given by Shen Taifei and take her new owner into account.”

“Yes!”

After letting the maids back down, Yong Ruo continued to read.

Whenever she read a book, she didn’t like the maids to be around her and usually only left a girl outside.

After a while, Hua Rou came and whispered to Yong Ruo, “Furen, Zhu Ying smashed that cup of tea. Was it because she knew that the cup of tea was not clean, so she dared not drink it? Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental that she got a cramp in her hand?”

Yong Ruo raised her eyebrows slightly and looked up at her, “Not clean, what do you mean?”

Hua Rou’s face was a little dignified, “It’s not easy for the slave to talk about this, but the slave once heard an old lady say that the most sinister and wicked thing in the backyard is to drug people’s food, and drinks. They wouldn’t have done that in the cup of tea, right?”

Yong Ruo praised Hua Rou in her heart, but said, “Why do you care about it? I didn’t drink that cup of tea anyway.”

Hua Rou suddenly sighed, “I’m so relieved!”

She asked Yong Ruo with some doubt, “Furen also suspected that there was a problem with the tea, so you didn’t drink it?”

Yong Ruo laughed, “How can that be? At that time, I was not thirsty, and was not interested in experiencing the goodness of tea. I don’t know how many people have used that teacup, and I don’t know if the maids have washed it or not. I didn’t want to drink at all!”

Hua Rou smiled lowly, “I didn’t think that there are such benefits of Furen’s cleanliness habit! Furen did it right! When you go to the Shou’an hall in the future, don’t eat or drink anything. The Princess of Xing’an County hates Furen, she might play underhanded tricks.”

Yong Ruo nodded, “What you said makes a lot of sense, I will remember it! But don’t go around and talk about it, lest we suspect the wrong person and provoke someone. If people doubt that I am trying to create a rift between mother, sister and son, I would be in trouble!”

“Furen, rest assured, Slave understands!”

Yong Ruo’s eyes fell on the medical book in her hand again, and she casually said, “And did you forget? Yesterday my fingers were cramped too. Zhu Ying’s hand cramp is not impossible. Don’t think too much! Especially don’t talk nonsense in front of Wang Ye.”

“Slave understands!” Hua Rou retreated quietly, with a strange feeling in her heart that could not be explained.

The previous day, Furen had a cramp. This day, Zhu Ying had a cramp in her hand. Was it really a coincidence?
