Soft and crispy waist

"They've barely walked in, and they're already teasing me."

Cook Yang cursed as she chopped the meat. Looking at Xia Zheng, who was squatting at the stove and lighting the fire, she thought for a moment and said, "This Concubine Xue is probably trying to intimidate you. You better be careful and don't let her find fault with you."

Xia Zheng nodded in response. She really didn't want to talk at the moment.

She had been busy with Tao Yurong for most of the day, and her lower abdomen was getting more and more painful. She finally waited until the masters had gone to the wedding banquet, and she could hide in the side room to rest. She had walked outside Shushiju when she was called back by the steward, who said that Madam Xue heard that she was a good cook and wanted to have a bowl of hot soup.

She had no right to refuse, so she had to go back to the kitchen.

Fortunately, Chef Yang had just finished her work and was still here, so she could help her.

Chunzhi had also been assigned dishwashing duties today. She had just brought her a clean soup bowl. Seeing her pale face, she asked worriedly, "Are you okay? If you're not feeling well, I'll tell Aunt Zhao."

Xia Zheng waved her hand. The new concubine just wanted a bowl of soup. If she didn't make it and reported it to Tao Yurong, Tao Yurong would not protect her in front of the Xue family. Instead, she would offend the Xue family and might even be punished.

Fortunately, soups are not difficult to make. A bowl of beef, tofu and celery soup can be prepared in about a quarter of an hour.

"The front yard is very busy today, and Wenxi Pavilion is the inner courtyard, so it would be better for Miss Xia Zheng to deliver it personally." Before the food box was delivered to the steward, the steward pushed the task over.

Understanding what the new concubine meant, Xia Zheng nodded and went to Wenxi Pavilion with the food box.

Most people were busy in the front yard, and there were no one in the backyard. No one noticed that Xia Zheng's face was getting uglier. She could only feel a warm current flowing out from under her body.

I think it’s time to start measuring.

She was afraid that if the amount of blood was too much, she would not be able to hold it back. She exposed her filth in front of Xue Wuyang and was taken away. She endured the pain and quickened her pace.

By the time I got to the front of the house, I was already sweating profusely.

Seeing that the maid inside had no intention of coming out to get the food, Xia Zheng had no choice but to carry the food box into the house.

"Your servant Xia Zheng, greets Madam."

Xue Wuyang had already taken off her wedding attire and was sitting in front of the dressing table wearing only a pink nightgown, with Liu Ye combing her hair. She seemed not to have heard Xia Zheng's voice at all and had no intention of getting up.

Xia Zheng couldn't get up unless her master called her. She remained squatting. Not only were her legs sore, but her stomach also started to hurt more. Cold sweat kept coming out of her forehead.

After waiting for a while, Xue Wuyang turned around and said in surprise, "Miss Xia Zheng is here, why didn't you call me?"

"This servant dares not disturb Madam."

Xue Wuyang walked out with her long hair tangled between her fingers and looked Xia Zheng up and down.

I was already stunned by a quick glance at her when I first entered the room. Now, when I look closely, I see that her skin is as white as cream, her eyes are sparkling, her breasts and hips are even fuller than hers, and her waist is so slender that it can be held in one hand. She looks like a completely alluring fox.

Even though her face was pale, she did not look sick, but rather had the look of a frail beauty.

If I dress up again...

However, for a person of low status, no matter how beautiful she is, it is useless. She will only become a plaything. At best, she can become a concubine and still have to bow down to her.

"Get up." Xue Wuyang said with a relieved tone, and sat down on the soft couch.

Xia Zheng straightened her numb legs, took out the soup bowl and spoon from the lunch box, carefully placed them on the small table, and opened the lid of the soup bowl for her.

Before she could stop, Xue Wuyang suddenly pushed the soup bowl towards her.

The hot soup spilled over, and even though Xia Zheng tried to move back, her legs were numb and she couldn't move away, and her entire forearm was splashed with it.

The soup was not like water, it was hot when I touched it. When I lifted my sleeves, a large area of ​​my clothes was red and it was burning with pain.

"What's going on! Don't you know that the concubine can't stand the smell of celery? Didn't you tell the kitchen?" Liu Ye yelled at the maids angrily.

"Sorry, I wanted to push it away when I smelled the celery, but I got burned?" Xue Wuyang asked with concern, as if she couldn't see the red on Xia Zheng's arm.

"It's fine. I didn't ask clearly. I'll make a new one right away."

After packing up her things, Xia Zheng lowered her head and left.

Back in the kitchen, Chunzhi stood up and saw her hand. "What happened? It's so badly burned!"

"That was Madam Xue who burned her!" Cook Yang came out of the kitchen and saw the wound on her arm, her eyes widening in shock. "So cruel! This is too much. After all, you are the young master's person. Isn't she afraid of the young master's blame?"

Xue Wuyang is not as outgoing as Wei Qingqing. Every word she says is polite. The burn was an accident. How could Gu Yizi blame her?

"I need to make another serving of the soup. Master, please prepare the vegetables. Just beef and tofu will be fine."

Seeing that Xia Zheng's words were empty, Chef Yang didn't say much and turned to go in to prepare the dishes.

Then, she cooked it and put it in the food box. Before Xia Zheng could grab the handle, Chun Zhi grabbed it. "I'll go with you."

Xia Zheng was about to refuse when Chunzhi added, "I'm also a concubine, so if we go, we should go together."

Knowing that Chunzhi was worried about her, he mustered up the courage to accompany her.

Xue Wuyang wanted to tease her, and she didn't want to burden Chunzhi. But now she was really struggling to walk, so she could only nod and say, "Then don't go in."

Chunzhi agreed and the two went back to Wenxi Pavilion.

The soup bowl was brought over again, and Xia Zheng had already opened the lid of the food box.

Seeing her pale face that looked like she was about to fall over at any moment, Xue Wuyang felt a sense of relief in his eyes. He picked up the spoon and took a sip, but the relief disappeared immediately.

"Miss Xia Zheng's craftsmanship is indeed excellent. Liu Ye, take Miss Xia Zheng to pick out something she likes. It can also be considered a meeting gift."

Xia Zheng wanted to refuse, but Liu Ye moved very quickly and got into the ear room. Xia Zheng had no choice but to follow her in.

The ear room was filled with things today. It was dark and depressing. As soon as Xia Zheng entered, she felt short of breath. Her stomach ached so much that her head felt a sharp pain. She couldn't hear what Liu Ye was saying at all.

"Hey! Miss Xia Zheng, how could you ruin the concubine's wedding dress? This is unlucky!"

Liu Ye suddenly screamed, realizing that something was wrong. Xia Zheng wanted to argue, but before she could open her mouth, her vision went dark and she fell down helplessly.

The last memory was seeing Chunzhi rushing in from outside the door, but her voice was very far away, and soon I could no longer hear anything.

Is she dead again?
