Chapter 8 The Crown Prince's Concubine from a Small Family 7

Jiujiu complained to Yue Jiaojiao in her mind.

"Host, did the dream you created yesterday go beyond the limit? Did you bring something you shouldn't have?"

"No, what do you mean?"

"He already considers himself the principal wife and Li Jiarui as the superfluous one."

"That's great, it's the right direction to go."

"He has already arranged for secret guards to enter the palace. He probably thought that since you two are newlyweds and it's a sweet time, the chances of success are slim and it might even backfire.

So I'm going to take it slow and steady, waiting very calmly for the right moment to intervene, and I'm quite patient."

"Hahaha, I'll get that person to my side as soon as possible."

"Tsk tsk tsk, host, stop teasing him on purpose. The veins in your hands are about to burst."

Just now, Li Jiarui was lowering his head to help Yue Jiaojiao try on a hollow gold bracelet. Yue Jiaojiao suddenly looked up and almost kissed Li Jiarui's chin.

Li Jiaze stopped combing the fat cat's hair, closed his eyes, and then his gaze was glued to Yue Jiaojiao, directly choosing to block Li Jiarui next to him.

Only after Yue Jiaojiao got on the carriage and the carriage from Prince Jin's Mansion was out of sight did Li Jiaze leave the restaurant with the cat in his arms.

His personal guards were all stunned. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came here so early and sat down without ordering any food or seeing any guests. What was he trying to do by sitting here all day?

……

Su Xiaoyi spent the whole day in fear, constantly thinking about how Princess Jin would abuse her.

How should I deal with it? How should I complain when Li Jiarui comes back? How should I say it to escape from this place?

Before Princess Jin could even say anything, she had already frightened herself to death and was trembling with fear as she waited for her gods to come and save her.

Unfortunately, Li Jiarui came back to greet her and left without looking back. Yue Jiaojiao's words "It's all for your own good" left her speechless.

All her actions were reported to Li Ma, the maidservant who served Princess Jin, by the maidservant in the same room with her, and so the abuse she had been "looking forward" to for a day came.

Nanny Li sat at the table with a stern face. Another maid stood beside her without saying a word. The atmosphere was very cold.

Su Xiaoyi was the first one who couldn't bear it anymore. She fell to her knees on the ground, not daring to raise her head.

Just by the sound, I knew my knee had hit the ground hard. "Mammy, I know I was wrong."

After a long while, Nanny Li finally spoke.

"Servants should behave like servants. How can you and I behave like servants?"

Su Xiaoyi gritted her teeth and said, "I know I'm wrong."

He tried hard to make his voice louder, secretly hating others in his heart, and fantasizing in his mind about becoming the rightful master of the prince's backyard.

She must trample those who look down on her under her feet. Seeing how they beg for mercy, she will definitely sell this hateful old woman out in the future.

"What's wrong?"

"I shouldn't have gone to the Crown Prince and his wife to plead for mercy without permission."

"Plead for mercy? It's a blessing for you that the princess is willing to keep you in the courtyard to teach you.

Has anyone in the courtyard given you any hardship today? Why are you asking for mercy? What kind of mercy are you asking for?

Su Xiaoyi immediately kowtowed, her face covered in sweat from nervousness. "I know I'm wrong."

The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Su Xiaoyi just wanted to get through this quickly.

"Since you know you're wrong, you must be punished. You've been gossiping in front of your master. According to the palace rules, you should be caned 20 times."

"Madam, please spare my life. I will never do it again. I really know I was wrong. Please have mercy on me. If you hit me with 20 sticks, I will die."

Su Xiaoyi's tears fell one by one, and the powder on her face was mottled by sweat and tears.

Nanny Li looked at her with cold and ruthless eyes, and Su Xiaoyi was like a chicken with its neck strangled, and her crying immediately became much softer.

"Since this is a mistake made when your mind is not clear, then you should wake up in the wind tonight."

Su Xiaoyi breathed a sigh of relief and immediately accepted the punishment obediently. Princess Jin would never use that kind of severe punishment that would have an immediate effect.

It would not only damage his own reputation, but also make his son dissatisfied and cause a backlash, so he would just take the maid away.

Only by slowly persuading this slave girl to recognize her own identity can his foolish son not see the problem and find no excuse to ask for her back.

Nanny Li left, and the maid in the same room tidied up and lay down. Su Xiaoyi stood outside the door as punishment.

The maid on duty was very quiet. Su Xiaoyi was afraid that she would be discovered if she was lazy, so she pinched herself when she felt sleepy and didn't even dare to lean back to rest for a while.

After a night of standing, my back and waist ached and my legs were stiff. Although there was no one to take over the maid's shift, she could sleep during the day.

Su Xiaoyi was reduced to a brick, moved wherever she was needed. The maids were all very polite to her, calling her "sister" all the time.

Although she was close to the Crown Princess, she did not assign him any special tasks in the Princess's courtyard.

She thought that if she worked harder, the princess would have less prejudice against her. She was busy all morning and only got two steamed buns for lunch.

She had just had a sip of water and had not yet rested when someone came to call her to go to Li Ma's room. Li Ma asked her if she could read.

Her father was a teacher in their village, so Su Xiaoyi was literate and could even recite a few sad poems when she was with Li Jiarui.

Su Xiaoyi readily admitted it, but before she could feel smug, Nanny Li punished her by asking her to copy the palace rules under the pretext of learning etiquette.

It's a 7 cm thick book, and I'm required to copy it 50 times. It has to be handed in by this time tomorrow, and they don't provide pen, ink, paper, or inkstone.

Su Xiaoyi was in a daze as she walked out with the book in her hands. After she got to the room, she gritted her teeth and took out the money she had saved before.

The maid in the same room had connections and would bring her what she needed in two hours, so she couldn't make any demands on the quality.

I ground my own ink and copied it myself. Being able to read doesn't mean I can write well. I couldn't even copy one page from a large piece of paper.

The ink was smudged, the paper was soaked and had holes in it, there was not enough lamp oil, and I missed dinner. After dark, I could only carry a stool outside the house and copy by moonlight.

My hands were so sore and I saw double. I stayed up all night and was so unsteady when I walked. I still hadn't completed the task.

She could only hand over the copied documents to Nanny Li, hoping that she would forgive her this time because of her good attitude.

Su Xiaoyi knelt weakly on the ground, like a prisoner waiting to be sentenced. Nanny Li frowned and looked through the papers one by one.

Nanny Li slammed her hand on the table, "Humph, Su Xiaoyi, are you expressing your protest in this way?

Why didn't you say yesterday that you didn't want to copy the book? Those who knew you were copying the government regulations, but those who didn't thought you were drawing comic strips of little people.

This is the first time I've seen such ugly handwriting. It's crooked and twisted. Your father is a scholar, and this is really embarrassing for him.

Presenting something like this is simply polluting the eyes of the princess."

After saying that, he reached out and picked up a few pieces of paper, tore them into pieces, and threw them in Su Xiaoyi's face.

"Waste, clean up this place and stand outside."

"Yes."

Su Xiaoyi hated it so much, but she could only endure it. She cursed the old hag Li Ma hundreds of times in her heart, and her teeth bit the soft flesh in her mouth until it bled.

While she was cleaning, Nanny Li was eating her own meal. She was trying to please the princess, so the food was quite good.

Three dishes and a soup, Princess Jin also specially gave her two big dishes today, the aroma rushed into Su Xiaoyi's nose.

He couldn't help but glance at the table, and was ridiculed by Nanny Li for being petty.

She lowered her head and endured the burning sensation in her stomach, then stood outside the door as punishment. After eating and drinking her fill, Nanny Li packed up and went to serve the princess.

When leaving, he did not forget to comment on her standing posture and used the method of suppression to keep her alive by eating a few steamed buns every day.

Su Xiaoyi no longer had the dignity she once had as a maid, and had to look at Li Ma's eyes before she could say anything.

After the third day, no one in the princess's courtyard spoke to her except Nanny Li, as if she didn't exist.

She was constantly being humiliated and forced to stand in punishment. If she didn't copy the book, she would be punished to bow. She would follow what Li Ma did, and would do it for an entire afternoon or morning.

I don’t say anything good, nor do I say anything bad. My throat is hoarse from shouting, and my legs and feet are a little out of control every day.

After all the operations, half a month later, she lost all her confidence, lowered her head and shrank timidly. Her back and neck, which had always been straight, bent, and her skin color became much darker.

I no longer have the conceited spirit I had before. When I have unrealistic ideas in my mind, my first reaction is to ask myself whether I am worthy of them.

Princess Jin saw her change and commented with disdain, "Your heart is as high as the sky, but your life is as thin as paper."
