I pretend to be a unicorn in the Red Mansion

Mrs. Wang also fainted, and the room became chaotic again.

Fortunately, the head maid Feicui was very capable. She quickly had Madam Wang settled down and waited for the imperial physician to come and see her.

She didn't know what was going on in the Rongguo Mansion. It had been really chaotic recently.

Feicui thought that she had to get married as soon as possible, otherwise she would not be able to live in peace in the whirlpool of Rongguo Mansion.

In addition to the two masters, Lady Jia and Mrs. Wang, who fainted, Yuanyang was also knocked unconscious by Wang Shanbao, the housekeeper.

At the moment of fainting, Yuanyang was still feeling lucky that the pain would go away after he fainted.

Wang Shanbao was so strong that he beat Yuanyang until he felt dizzy.

Wang Shanbao blew on her red palms. The force was mutual. She hit Yuanyang's scalp so hard that it felt numb, and her own palms also felt numb from the shock.

But she enjoyed it. After knocking the little bastard unconscious today, she finally gained a reputation among the servants. Let's see who dares to bully her in the future.

As the first wife's situation became better and better, her status as a servant also rose accordingly.

Housewife Wang Shanbao was very proud. She glanced at the dazed housewife Zhou Rui and said, "Hey, little guy, you used to be superior to me, but from now on, I will be superior to you."

Madam Xing adjusted her hairpin with some boredom and said, "Fei Cui, go see where the imperial physician is and ask him to come and treat the old lady and the second lady as soon as possible."

Madam Xing looked at the sun outside and said, "Pearl, Amber, you two take good care of the old lady here. When the imperial physician has treated her, come and report to me in time.

If there is anything wrong with the old lady, I will ask you for your help."

After Mrs. Xing perfunctorily expressed her concern, she followed Jia She and left.

She had been away from her precious son for an hour and missed him.

Quickly returning to the East Courtyard, Mrs. Xing gave Wang Shanbao a uniquely shaped gold hairpin as a reward. She seemed very satisfied with Wang Shanbao's behavior today.

Mrs. Xing also hated the maids in Lady Jia's house. They were so arrogant that they thought they were second ladies. What the hell? They were just little bitches.

Housekeeper Wang Shanbao accepted the golden hairpin and said flattering words, "Madam, look how majestic the master is today. He even made the second wife faint from anger. Hahahaha."

Mrs. Wang Shanbao's gloating smile made Mrs. Xing laugh as well.

The master and servant discussed Mrs. Wang's miserable condition, and they became happier and happier as they laughed.

In the past, they had been oppressed by Mrs. Wang for too long, and now they were really happy to see Mrs. Wang in trouble.

The master and servant laughed enough. Madam Xing wiped the tears from her eyes and asked Xia Yue, "Brother Cheng and the master are in the study. Does he want anything to eat?"

Mrs. Xing is truly Jia Cheng’s biological mother, always worrying that he doesn’t have enough to eat.

Xia Yue replied respectfully: "To answer Madam, Third Master Cheng and the First Master are talking in the study. There are snacks and milk tea in the room. No extra food is needed."

Mrs. Xing nodded. This was as she expected. Jia Cheng usually liked to stay in the study and read books. He not only read the Four Books and Five Classics for the imperial examinations, but also medical books and miscellaneous notes.

Jia Cheng seemed to have a strong interest in everything. He was so focused on reading that he didn't even think about eating.

Mrs. Xing was both proud and worried. She was afraid that Jia Cheng would ruin his health by studying all day, and she wished she could feed him eight meals a day.

Only when you are full can you study well.

Jia Cheng is intelligent and has a photographic memory. Although he has not studied for a long time, he has already remembered most of the books he has read.

Such a learning progress made Mrs. Xing feel that her son was suffering, so she could only send Jia Cheng more food and drink and help him with all the chores so that he could study without distraction.

Mrs. Xing missed her son but didn't want to disturb him from studying.

Then he turned his eyes and ordered Dongyue, "Dongyue, go to the kitchen and ask them to prepare a bowl of Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup to help Cheng Ge cool down in this hot summer.

In addition, I also ordered some green stem porridge, bean curd buns, white jade cake, steamed duck with fermented rice wine, rouge goose breast, cream-filled crispy rolls, and silver thread noodles. "

Mrs. Xing ordered the dishes in a very confident manner. She would never have dared to order so casually before.

Occasionally, ordering a dish would cost a lot of money, which Mrs. Xing, who was short of money, couldn't afford.

And now she had just dealt with Liu Po, who was in charge of the kitchen, by beating her to death in front of everyone, and sold Liu Ma's family out. Mrs. Xing felt that she had established herself in the Rongguo Mansion.

From now on, she can eat whatever she wants. She no longer has to starve like before. Even if she wants to eat something, she can't bear to spend the money.

Mrs. Xing suddenly thought of the past. The life she lived at that time would make outsiders feel sad if they heard about it.

She was the wife of a first-rank general, but sometimes she couldn't even get enough to eat.

Usually, Grandmother Jia asked her two daughters-in-law to set the rules. While Grandmother Jia was eating, Lady Wang and she could only serve at the table.

After Grandmother Jia had enough of teasing her daughter-in-law, she let her and Lady Wang sit at the table to eat. The greasy dishes on the table had already gone cold.

Looking at the solidified oil, one immediately loses his appetite.

After returning to her own East Courtyard, Mrs. Xing wanted to have a hot meal, but the maid she sent was troubled by the people in the kitchen.

On Mrs. Wang's side, people in the kitchen had already prepared the meal.

With such a comparison, how could Mrs. Xing feel balanced?

Now seeing that Mrs. Wang was in trouble, she also pulled out Mrs. Wang's people in the kitchen.

All those who had troubled her in the past were dealt with, and Mrs. Xing immediately felt refreshed.

It’s like drinking a bowl of cool water in the hot summer, and every pore feels refreshed.

Mrs. Xing felt that she had finally made it. She had finally become the mistress of the entire Rongguo Mansion and no longer had to look at anyone's face.

If anyone dares to give her a hard time again, she will drag the master to beat that person to death and then sell him off.

Mrs. Xing sat in the room, and as she sat there she couldn't help laughing.

This is the kind of life that people should live. When she first married into the Rongguo Mansion from a humble family, wasn't this the kind of life she wanted to live, where she could call the wind and rain and order servants around?

She finally lived the life she wanted, and it was all brought to her by her baby son.

The happiest and luckiest thing in her life was giving birth to Jia Cheng.

Thinking of her son, Mrs. Xing's eyes revealed tenderness.

On the other side, Dongyue took the order and went downstairs to the big kitchen. Before she entered the door, she saw the smiling faces of the old women in the kitchen.

Even Li Wang, the housekeeper in charge of the kitchen, came over to greet Dong Yue with a nod and a bow. "Hey, Miss Dong Yue, are you in the kitchen looking for something to eat? I'll ask them to prepare it right away."

As he spoke, Li Wang stuffed a silver coin into Dongyue's hand.

Dong Yue raised her head and sneered, and did not take the money from Li Wang, "Butler Li, how dare I come to the kitchen to ask for food? If I want to eat something, I can't leave without peeling a layer of skin.

The eldest lady asked you to make a bowl of Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup for Master Cheng San. Butler Li, what do you mean by giving me money?

I have to give you money, otherwise you can't take what I want."

Dong Yue was not moved by these small favors at all. The people in the big kitchen were flatterers and looked down on the weak. In the past, she was always embarrassed when she came to get food from the big house.

Whenever she wanted to eat something, she was always refused. Even after she paid, these people were reluctant to eat. The food tasted average and was simply perfunctory.

Dongyue was very angry about this, but now seeing the people in the kitchen nodding and bowing to her, as if they wanted to kneel on the ground and kowtow to her, Dongyue felt refreshed instantly.

These dogs really knew how to change their attitude according to the situation. When they saw that the first wife's wife sold out Liu Ma's family so quickly and beat Liu Po ​​to death, they finally realized the power of the first wife's wife.

It’s too late to come to visit the pier now!

Dong Yue bypassed Li Wang, the kitchen steward who tried to please him, because she looked down on Li Wang.

Li Wang is the biological father of Yuanyang, a maidservant beside Lady Jia. Relying on the fact that he is an elder in the Rongguo Mansion, his whole family is arrogant and domineering.

Dong Yue walked to a gentle, taciturn woman, and said in a softer tone: "Auntie Zhou, please help Master Cheng San to make a bowl of Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup, as well as Green Stem Porridge, Bean Curd Buns, White Jade Cake, Steamed Duck with Rice Wine, Rouge Goose Breast, Cream Puff Pastry Rolls, and Silver Thread Noodles.

The first wife was afraid that the third master and the first master would be hungry while reading in the study, so she asked me to prepare more of these foods. If there are other pastries, please ask Aunt Zhou to prepare some for me as well. "

After saying this, Dongyue stuffed a silver peanut into Aunt Zhou's pocket.

Why did she ask Aunt Zhou to help her make things? Because Aunt Zhou did not belong to any faction, neither the old lady's nor Mrs. Wang's.

She was placed in the big kitchen only because of her good cooking skills.

In the past, when the people in the first wife's house were in trouble, it was only Aunt Zhou who felt sorry for them and prepared some food for them.

For example, when Dongyue came to the kitchen to get food, Aunt Zhou would give her some small cakes to fill her stomach.

Aunt Zhou looked at Dongyue as if she were her own daughter, so she took good care of her.

Also, because Aunt Zhou occasionally showed kindness to the eldest wife, she was often ostracized by the people in the kitchen.

Everyone is always sarcastic to her, but fortunately Aunt Zhou is good at maintaining her temper and always listens in one ear and lets it out the other. I don't care what you say, I just do my own job.

Since Aunt Zhou is good at making soup, the old lady can't do without her, so no one can do anything to her.

Dongyue felt that among all the well-known maids in the kitchen, only Aunt Zhou was a good person, and she looked down on the others.

The main reason is that those people are close to the second house, and they flatter Madam Wang every day, and they look down on her master Madam Xing behind her back.

Dongyue thought about finding an opportunity to file a complaint.

Mrs. Liu was just the beginning of Mrs. Xing's cleaning up of the kitchen. If the others didn't come to her quickly, their fate would probably not be much better than Mrs. Liu's.

Although cooking in the kitchen is a technical job, there are many people eagerly waiting for the position, so the absence of any one of them will not affect everyone's meals.

Aunt Zhou did not accept Dongyue's money, but prepared to work quickly.

Of course, she couldn't do all these things by herself, but needed to assign someone to do them.

Dongyue gave this power to Aunt Zhou to support her.

Li Wang glared at Aunt Zhou who started working without saying a word, and felt that she was really tactless.

I don't even know how to say a good word for him as the housekeeper.

Li Wang was just given a face by Dongyue, but he didn't take it seriously and seemed to be willing to swallow his pride.

He was flexible and said to Dongyue in a flattering way: "Miss Dongyue, I was blind and did not recognize a great man before. I have offended you a lot. Please forgive me and let me go.

In the future, please say a few good words to me in front of the first wife." Li Wang bent his waist and lowered his head, looking very humble.

Then he asked the maid next to him to bring a chair for Dongyue to sit on, while Li Wang stood.

Dong Yue knew that now was not the time to fall out. Although she hated Li Wang, Li Wang had a lot of complicated connections in the mansion and he couldn't be killed in one go.

She just wanted to give him a little warning, and how to deal with Li Wang later would still depend on the master and mistress's opinions.

So Dongyue accepted his kindness, and when Li Wang stuffed money into her pocket, she took it.

However, Dongyue did not promise to speak well of Li Wang in front of Madam Xing. She just said: "Butler Li, as long as you serve the master and the mistress well and arrange three meals a day for the people in the mansion, the mistress will not make things difficult for you."

Li Wang nodded quickly, "Miss Dongyue is right. We will definitely do our duty and cook well for Laohe and his wife in the future.

If there is anything I have done wrong, I hope Miss Dongyue can give me some pointers."

After Li Wang finished speaking, another lady in the kitchen, Mrs. Li, who was good at making pasta and snacks, brought over a plate of jujube and yam cake.

"Miss Dongyue, please have some snacks first. The food you requested will be ready soon. I will send a little girl to bring it back to you then."

Dongyue reached out to take the date paste and yam cake and took a light bite of it.

When she ate like this, everyone in the kitchen breathed a sigh of relief, which meant that Dongyue had no intention of making things difficult for them.

So under the command of Aunt Zhou, the others really tried their best to prepare the meals that Mrs. Xing had ordered.

Dongyue was very satisfied to see everyone working so hard.

As expected, the master has the power, and they, the servants, also have face. If she had come to the kitchen before, she would not have received such treatment.

The better the first wife, the better she will be.
