Forcing me to raise a concubine? The mistress of the Marquisate has gone mad
Chapter 169 Jealousy
"After entering the palace, listen more, watch more, and learn more, but talk less. If you can't control your mouth, you won't even know how you lost your life!"
The leading nanny walked in front, followed by the palace maids who were being sent into the palace.
Everyone lowered their heads, their big eyes wide open with curiosity, but they didn't dare to look around.
When he met someone coming towards him, he stretched out his neck quietly, then immediately retracted it like a turtle, not daring to see the person.
Qingwu lowered his eyes slightly, but out of the corner of his eye he saw a gorgeous sedan chair passing by, with many people surrounding it in front and behind. The footsteps were fast, but the sound was very small.
Is this the palace?
"See? This is Consort Lin, the favorite concubine in the palace." After the sedan chair left, the nanny slowly spoke, "Next time you meet the master, no matter what you are doing, quickly step aside. Don't say a word unless the master summons you."
Her cloudy eyes showed the light of seeing through the world, "You are here to serve in the palace, remember your duty. Do your job well, it is better than anything else."
Qingwu's body did not move, but his heart skipped a beat.
Mammy, are you calling her?
Before entering the palace today, she deliberately disguised her face. If you didn't look closely, she was just a pale and skinny little palace maid, not outstanding.
Before Qingwu could recall whether she had done anything wrong, the little palace maid standing in front of her couldn't help but tremble.
Qingwu remembered that besides himself, this palace maid also had a good-looking face, very pretty!
"What I am saying now are all ways for you to save your lives in the future. Listen carefully and remember! If you don't know what's best for you, don't blame me for not teaching you earlier!" As the saying goes, ugly words should be said first, otherwise, if something happens in the future, it will really be blamed on her.
If you stay in this palace for a long time, your heart will easily become cold.
The nanny would always say these words, but whether you could hear them or not depended on your luck.
Qingwu followed the nanny to where the palace maids lived. She was assigned to Yanxi Palace, where all the work was done by menial servants. Although it was close to where the emperor lived, the emperor never came here.
The people in Yeonghye Palace are the palace maids among the palace maids.
Only those who have made mistakes in other palaces will be exiled here. It is a place that no one wants to come to.
But Qingwu enjoyed it.
"After you enter the palace, don't rush to see the emperor. Do as I say, and the opportunity will come naturally." Before entering the palace, the lady repeatedly reminded him not to rush.
She had thought of many ways to meet the emperor by chance, but all of them were rejected by the lady.
"Remember, don't take the initiative. It's better to wait than to leave any deliberate traces." She said that the emperor was suspicious by nature and she must not be self-righteous, otherwise, she would not be able to get into his heart.
Qingwu kept her lady's teachings in mind and never complained no matter how dirty or tiring the work was.
Sometimes, they will even go over to lend a hand when something cannot be completed by others.
Her face was gradually exposed, but the nanny was no longer on high alert like she had been at the beginning.
"You are kind, but kindness is the last thing in this palace." When she was helping the little palace maid whose hands were red and swollen to wash the quilt again, the nanny stopped her.
With so many people around, it was not unheard of that no one noticed that the hands of the palace maid who was washing the quilts were almost soaked.
But no one offered a helping hand.
In the palace, meddling in other people's affairs will lead to your death.
But Qingwu insisted on going down this road.
"Thank you for your advice, Ma'am. But Chunhong has helped me before, and I can't bear to see her suffer." Chunhong was the little palace maid who washed the quilts. When Qingwu first entered the palace, she secretly brought two steamed buns to her.
Because Qingwu's work was not finished that time, there was no food when he went there.
A drop of water is repaid with a spring of water. Mammy paused and said, "You are a grateful person."
Qingwu smiled and said nothing more.
In the eyes of the nanny, she has changed from a kind-hearted fool to a good person who knows how to repay kindness.
There is a difference between a fool and a good person.
A kind-hearted fool might cause a disaster someday. But as for a good person...if you help her, she will remember it for the rest of her life - it's worth using.
"Starting tomorrow, you will clean the outer courtyard."
Cleaning the outer courtyard is the easiest job in Yeonghyeongjeon. There is no need to lift heavy objects or soak in cold water. All you need to do is clean the courtyard, water the flowers and weed.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked over with envy.
Chunhong is no exception.
Qing Wu was stunned for a moment, then she was delighted, "I obey your command!"
Then, when the maid passed by him, he bowed slightly and whispered, "Thank you for your support, maid."
The nanny didn't even pause, but Qingwu knew that she heard these words.
"Qingwu, you are so lucky. No one is fighting for the job of cleaning the outer courtyard. I didn't expect that Nanny would give it to you." Chunhong walked forward and looked at Qingwu's face. The envy in her heart was about to burst out.
Why is Qingwu so good-looking and lucky?
Unlike her, she is thin, small, and ugly, and is bullied wherever she goes.
Chunhong's words were full of envy, but there was nothing else.
However, some people couldn't stand it and mocked: "Chunhong, you are so stupid. You don't even know that you are being used!"
The palace maid next to him made a sarcastic sound, and her eyes almost rolled up to the sky when she looked at Qingwu!
Chunhong looked puzzled, "What do you mean? Who took advantage of me?"
"You are really stupid!" The maid sneered and said unhappily, "She is using the excuse of helping you to show off in front of Madam! Otherwise, why would Madam give her such a good job? It's because she helped you!"
This kind of pretended kindness is really unpleasant to see!
Others also agreed, although some people did not think so. After all, Chunhong's job was really tiring. She had to soak in water all day long. Except for Qingwu, no one in Yanxi Palace helped her.
But who made Qingwu so prosperous?
They are all new palace maids, why is she so lucky?
So they all kept silent and allowed the palace maid to slander her.
Jealousy, sometimes doesn’t require too many reasons, as long as you are better than yourself, that’s all.
Even Chunhong was a little shaken, "Is this really the case?"
She couldn't help but take a few steps back, putting some distance between herself and Qingwu, while also making her position clear.
The maid looked even more smug when she saw this, as if to say—
So what even if you are valued by the nanny?
In this palace, no one is on your side!
From now on, you will be alone and helpless!
