Soft and crispy waist

"What's wrong with Aunt? She has been lying in the room since she came back from paying her respects. Will lunch be delivered? Who will deliver it?" The second-class maid in the yard held a lunch box and looked timidly at Donglin who was sitting in a rocking chair under the banyan tree. She didn't know what to do and asked Mother Du for help.

Mother Du was in charge of the courtyard and could not go out with Xia Zheng. She didn't know what had happened to Xia Zheng. Chef Yang was not at home, so it was not easy for her to get in from outside the house.

But there was still a lot of work to do, and she couldn't just sit there and wait. After thinking it over, she took the food box from the maid and walked over to Donglin. "Miss Donglin, lunch is ready. Please take it to my aunt."

"Me? Don't you have legs yourself?" Dong Lin glanced at him with disgust and closed his eyes, still rocking the rocking chair.

Mother Du had long disliked Donglin, especially after hearing what Shuangjiang said the day before. However, because she was appointed by the Crown Prince's Consort, she thought it was better to mind her own business and said, "You are the eldest maid, and you should serve the concubine. This is also your responsibility."

Should have?

Why should she serve?

They all came here together. Xia Zheng's background was much worse than hers, so why should she serve her?

"Then go find Shuangjiang." That's the kind of maid who serves people.

"You just sent Shuangjiang to the Internal Affairs Office, and now you want me to go find her? You're just sitting here, so what's wrong with you sending her in?"

"I, just, won't, go." Dong Lin spoke each word clearly, his face full of a look of, "What can you do to me?"

Xia Zheng had to give in to her. She was just a maid, and she thought she could compete with her just by taking care of some chores. She was still taboo at first, but Mother Du was not allowed to leave the yard at all. What's more, Tao Yurong didn't allow her to report even the smallest matters, so why should she be taboo at all?

"Little bitch! Do you really think you are the master!" Throwing down the food box, Mother Du reached out and grabbed Donglin's collar and pulled her up from the rocking chair. Before Donglin could react, she freed one hand and slapped her in the face again and again.

Mother Du started out as a servant, and her hands were very strong. She slapped Donglin's face until it became swollen in just a few hits.

Donglin had already offended everyone in the courtyard. It was not until she was beaten more than ten times that someone came forward to pull the two people apart.

"You! You...you actually dare to hit me!" Dong Lin covered his face with his hands, so shocked and angry that he could not speak clearly.

"I'm beating you, you cheap bastard who's taking advantage of the situation! Your aunt doesn't dare to control you, but you think you're the boss in this courtyard. Bah! Who the hell do you think you are? You're an ugly woman who can't even be chosen as a concubine, and you dare to mock my daughter? My daughter is much better than you. She's a clean and honest wife. Unlike you, if you endure for another two years, you'll be an old woman. Even if you're sold to a brothel as a prostitute, no one will want you."

"You! You!" Donglin is a girl after all, and has been pampered by others recently. She has never heard such unpleasant words before. She couldn't utter a word for a long time.

"What do you mean? You want to report me to the Crown Prince's wife? Do you think I'm afraid? You're an outsider, and you really think you can get ahead of me? This is the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. Even if it was a Marquis' Mansion, you're just a second-class foot-washing maid. Who would look down on you?"

As soon as the second-class maid said this, Donglin's background was exposed.

Looking at the eyes of the people around her, she felt that they were laughing at her.

"Okay! Okay! Stop arguing! I'll deliver lunch later, I'll go." Shuangjiang just came back from outside, rushed into the crowd, hugged Donglin and went into the west room.

After closing the door, Mother Du's scolding was still going on outside, becoming increasingly harsher and harsher.

Donglin sat on the stool, trembling with anger.

"Sister Donglin, don't listen to her. She's talking nonsense. She's jealous of you and my aunt coming into the mansion together. She's jealous of you being respected and the Crown Prince's wife favoring you. She's deliberately trying to cause trouble for you."

Frost's persuasion had no effect at all, but instead reminded Donglin even more.

She entered the mansion with Xia Zheng. Now she is a concubine, and no matter how much Xia Zheng respects her, she is still a maid.

The Crown Princess is reused?

She had been warned today, and Mother Du's words also made it clear that this was the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and there was no way she could get past these people in the mansion.

"Don't think too much. No matter what, Sister Donglin, you have a status in our courtyard."

In this small courtyard.

It's just this side.

Once out of the yard, he was beaten back to his original form.

Just like today in front of Fanghuayuan, Chunzhi dared to argue with Wei Qingqing, so she could only hide aside.

"In theory, I actually think that since you entered the mansion with Auntie, you should have been given the same position as Auntie Chun. Why should you be the only one to be a maid? You are no worse than them, and you are smarter and more capable than them. Unlike Auntie, who is beautiful but cannot keep anyone. Now she is pregnant, but the fetus is unstable. The prince still comes occasionally, but she is just a maid after all. After three months, the fetus is stable, and I am afraid that the prince will not come anymore. After all, there are so many women in this mansion. The prince is here now. The prince's wife, the concubine, and Auntie Huan will definitely get pregnant soon. Even if Auntie gives birth to a boy, it will not be good enough."

Three months. Now Xia Zheng has been pregnant for almost two months. How many times can Gu Yizi come?

Wei Qingqing was right. The child in Xia Zheng's belly could not compare with her. Even if she gave birth to Gu Yizi, he would not value her.

If Xia Zheng is not favored, life in this small courtyard will not be easy. Tao Yurong asked her to wait until Xia Zheng gave birth, which is another six months. What if she didn't keep her promise? Even if she did, by then everyone would be pregnant or have given birth. How could she still be favored?

"Actually, I shouldn't have stopped you yesterday. Luckily, you didn't blame me and didn't report me to the Concubine. I was just worried that you wouldn't succeed. But last night, when I was on guard, I found a secret compartment in my aunt's cabinet. Inside was another bottle of medicine. I know a little bit about medicine, so I could tell it was Tiger and Wolf Medicine. It's very good, and it's hard to detect even if it's used less frequently. So the rumors are true. No wonder my aunt was so favored before."

There have always been rumors that Xia Zheng used some tricks to gain the favor of the emperor on the first night she went to Soseki Residence. However, rumors are just rumors after all, and they dissipated after a while. However, Dong Lin had heard about it, and now he felt even more wronged.

If medicine can do it, then she can do it too.

As long as she becomes a concubine, she is the master, and there are people serving her. Even if she is not favored, it is better than now. Shuangjiang is right. She is much more capable than Xia Zheng and will definitely be better at maintaining favor. She does not have to serve Xia Zheng for half a year, waiting in vain for Tao Yurong to fulfill her empty promise.

This idea quickly took root in my mind.

At night, she rarely stayed up late.

While Xia Zheng was sleeping, he quietly opened the wardrobe and found the hidden compartment inside. Sure enough, there was a small medicine bottle.
