Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan
Chapter 293 Lin Zhuoyin was ignored and Fang Ruo's past
Naturally, what Lily said about Nian Shilan also reached the ears of the Fourth Prince. The Fourth Prince didn't say anything and just stayed in Lanyun Villa for several days, leaving Lin Zhuoyin in Youyangju.
A new bride must sleep with the Fourth Prince for at least three days when she enters the palace, but Lin Zhuoyin only lasted one day before being thrown aside by the Fourth Prince. Lin Zhuoyin no longer had the ambition she had before entering the palace. Now she only wanted to win back the Fourth Prince's heart.
But everyone knew that Lin Zhuoyin had offended Nian Shilan, and the male owner of the palace was obviously on Nian Shilan's side. How could the servants who changed their positions according to the wind give Lin Zhuoyin face? Youyangju could still maintain its current treatment, which was the result of the servants' fear that Lin Zhuoyin would have a chance to make a comeback.
But Lin Zhuoyin could not accept this gap. In the past, she did not need to ask and the servants would take the initiative to share her worries. Therefore, whether it was the food she ate or the clothes she wore, Lin Zhuoyin got the best according to her quota, and sometimes even enjoyed good things that exceeded her status as a princess.
What about now? The daily meals no longer take Lin Zhuoyin's taste into consideration. Huang Guiquan didn't do it on purpose. You like beef and mutton, but you don't like pork. But your quota of beef and mutton for this month has been used up. The kitchen is also helpless without rice!
Actually, what was there for Lin Zhuoyin to get used to? She had been a maid in the palace for fifteen years, and she had only enjoyed a good life for less than half a year, but she had developed the habit of eating only beef and mutton.
Although Huang Guiquan was cold, he didn't offend anyone. The pork he used to cook for Lin Zhuoyin was all the best prime rib and tenderloin. Even the pork elbow was stewed with abalone, sea cucumber, and old hen soup before being served. It melted in the mouth and was not greasy.
At least Gancao was satisfied with the food. I don't know why Lin Zhuoyin covered her nose with a handkerchief when she saw pork, and refused to eat because she disliked the smell of pork. In the past, in the palace, let alone pork tenderloin and pork belly, she couldn't even afford pork. It was lucky to be able to taste a few strands of chicken and duck meat occasionally.
But Lin Zhuoyin didn't eat it, and Lily couldn't eat it because her hand was injured, so the good dishes all went to Gancao. Not only did she eat enough to fill her stomach every day, but she also had some leftovers to win over the maids. In this way, even if Lily's hand healed, she couldn't even order people around, so how could her status surpass Gancao's?
Gancao felt content, while Lin Zhuoyin was going crazy. No, she didn't want to live like this forever. When she was at her wit's end, Lin Zhuoyin thought of someone who could help her - Aunt Fangruo, who served the Fourth Prince. She didn't know if the little favor she showed her that day could convince Fangruo.
But there was no other way, so Lin Zhuoyin could only give it a try. She asked Gancao to take the eyebrow pencil to find Fangruo, and asked Gancao to convey a message, "Aunt, can you come and teach my princess how to draw eyebrows again?"
Fang Ruo didn't hesitate at all and nodded in agreement.
Su Peisheng looked at Gancao's back as she happily left, and reminded Fangruo, who had been his partner for many years, "Aunt, you have to be sensible!"
Fang Ruo rolled her eyes at Su Peisheng, "If the prince didn't have that intention, would I dare to do anything?"
Su Peisheng smiled apologetically, "It was I who said too much."
Fang Ruo also softened her tone, "I know you are doing this for my own good. People on both sides of the street envy those of us who serve the prince, but they don't know that this is really the most difficult job in the world."
Su Peisheng listened to the negativity in Fang Ruo's words and asked with concern, "Sister, what are you doing...?"
Fang Ruo smiled bitterly, "I don't have any close relatives in my family anymore, and all I want is a stable life in the second half of my life. Seeing that our prince has a bright future, my heart is shaking constantly."
Eunuchs like Su Peisheng and Xiao Xiazi cannot leave the mansion and can only rely on the Fourth Prince to survive. But old maids like Fangruo are dispensable in the front yard and have no place in the back yard, but they can walk around outside freely. Who wants to suffer when they can enjoy the good life?
If Fang Ruo is lucky enough to follow the Fourth Prince to the palace in the future, for the sake of her happiness in the second half of her life, she must find a promising nobleman in the harem. It is better to start investing now than to find one in the future. How can the friendship of helping someone in times of need be comparable to icing on the cake?
Su Peisheng did not think as far-sightedly as Fang Ruo. Eunuchs can only depend on their masters to live, and only when their masters are about to die will eunuchs think about their future.
"Old sister, are you optimistic about Linggege?"
Fang Ruo lowered her eyes and said, "I can't say I'm optimistic. You know I was ordered to observe that person. This Linggege was lucky because of that person. Isn't it that I also want to make a good relationship with her? After all, we all know that the prince will never lose interest in Linggege. Now he just has one less step."
The distant mountain makeup that Fang Ruo is good at could not have appeared out of thin air, just like her skillful hands transformed Lin Zhuoyin's appearance into a more or less similar Rou Ze. If it weren't for years of close observation, Fang Ruo would not have been able to do it even if she was an expert in makeup.
This story started many years ago. If you really count the days, Fangruo and Rouze entered the Zheng Mansion at the same time. However, in the Zheng Mansion, Fangruo was not called Fangruo, but an old nanny who was proficient in massage - Shuiyue. Rouze had fallen ill due to dancing practice over the years, and Shuiyue's massage just happened to help Rouze relieve the pain.
Rouze didn't need massage every day, and Shuiyue didn't want to sell herself to the Zheng family, so she came to her house every ten days or half a month to relax Rouze's muscles and relieve her pain.
However, in the past few years, General Zheng has been stationed in the northwest battlefield and has been ordered to guard the pass. He cannot return to Beijing easily. The Zheng family does not have a newborn baby yet, so General Zheng and Madam Zheng decided to send Rou Ze to find General Zheng.
Rouze left Beijing, Shuiyue naturally didn't need to appear anymore, and Fangruo didn't need to disappear two or three times a month. It was just that after so many years of preparation, Fangruo finally met Lin Zhuoyin, who needed her to groom herself.
The first one is always special, even the first substitute is the same, even if there are more similar ones appearing later, as long as Lin Zhuoyin can understand the essence of the Fourth Prince’s favor, her honor and favor can be guaranteed to last.
Anyway, it's just a gesture of goodwill. Even if Lin Zhuoyin can't do it, there will be the next one. After all, Fang Ruo is the only one in the world who has this skill.
Su Peisheng didn't know what Fang Ruo relied on, so he could only say tactfully, "Old sister, you should be more cautious. Don't lose the present for the sake of the future!"
Fang Ruo smiled confidently, "I don't believe that you, an old man, didn't see that the prince is still very interested in Ling Gege! What's wrong with me heating up the stove in advance?"
Su Peisheng also smiled, "Aren't you afraid that the elder sister will be blinded and fall into a pit and can't get out? After all, flowers don't last forever, and there may be more similar ones in the future. The elder sister has to make a choice! If you get too close to Ling Gege, won't you make enemies for yourself no matter what happens in the future?"
If I choose Ling Gege, I will offend the substitute behind me. If I choose the one behind me, Ling Gege will definitely not be happy. Don't let Fang Ruo get into trouble when the time comes, instead of forming a good relationship.
Fang Ruo understood Su Peisheng's worries and said impatiently, "I know, I know. Don't worry, I'm not blind yet!"
