Since she was young, she had always been an honest girl at home. Even at the Xu family, she had not experienced the battles between servants and was directly sent to moon-nesting to be protected by Xu Mingwei. How could she be better than Zhao Yang? Even though she understood that Zhao Yang's words were not good, he was unable to understand where the crux of her problem was, and even more so, had no way to retort.
When she thought about how she was slapped on the face by Zhao Yang this morning, without knowing why, she felt both angry and anxious. However, she couldn't find the words to explain herself, so she just stood there, angered herself until her face turned red.
"Since you know, why don't you go down?" Xu Mingwei said coldly.
After she finished speaking, she waved her hand and walked out, leaving Peaches standing there, completely at a loss. She did not understand how she had angered Zhao Yang again.
"Idiot, why aren't you coming over!" Xu Mingwei called out to her when she saw her at a loss for what to do.
Bi Tao hurriedly put down the bowl of soup in his hand. He wiped his hands clean before stepping forward to receive the waiter. "Miss, do you have anything else?"
Xu Mingwei ignored her, but asked, "Do you know how many things you just did wrong?"
Peaches shook her head and tried to sound it out, "Miss, do you blame this servant for not closing the door properly? Next time, this servant will definitely pay attention. "
"The door is one. Secondly, I have already gone to sleep, so Zhao Yang can still casually barge into the door. The next time, if she barges into the door, what should you do? Thirdly, even if Zhao Yang comes in, you should at least take out the money that you owe to your personal big sister, and kick her out. To think that she would say such words for so long, don't any of you have a master like me in your eyes? "
When she heard Xu Mingwei's last sentence, she immediately kneeled down before him. "Miss, this servant doesn't dare."
"I know you don't dare, but you have to make sure that no one else does!" Next time, remember to tell others that you didn't do it well. When you didn't do it well, just straighten your back and kick him out. "As a master, she has yet to say how good her servants are at serving her. It's not up to her, an outsider, to make a fuss here!" Xu Mingwei looked at her and asked, "Did you really understand it this time? I don't beg you to do anything to Zhao Yang, but at least don't embarrass me. "
With a pale face, Peaches nodded. "This servant understands."
It didn't matter if she really knew or if she was just pretending, she would see what Jade Peaches would do in the future. When Xu Mingwei was lying down, she caught sight of the lotus seed lily soup on the table from the corner of her eyes, and then saw the silhouette of a human figure outside the window. She purposely shouted at the peaches, "Drink that bowl of soup on the table while it's hot, and don't disappoint Zhao Yang."
Bi Tao was curious as to why Xu Mingwei suddenly raised her voice. Without suspecting anything, she carried the bowl of soup and drank it whole.
Xu Mingwei smiled at her and asked, "Is it good?"
Peaches nodded, "Delicious!"
"Then the next time you meet your big sister Zhao Yang, remember to thank her."
"Yes, this servant understands." Jade Peaches said loudly.
After being publicly humiliated by Xu Mingwei, Zhao Yang became much more obedient in the next two days. It was just as she had expected from the academy. The two masters Fang Liang did not take any proper lessons, but instead pointed out their brushwork and strategy questions while trying to catch the two sisters of the Zuo family who were enlightened, with the intention of not separating at the top and bottom.
The Eldest Princess did not blame the two Zuo sisters because of this. In fact, she had been rather distracted for the past two days, so what did Xu Mingwei think she was doing?
It was actually caused by the Eldest Princess inviting the three of them to lunch that day. There were many ears and eyes in the palace, and the Eldest Princess did not hide it from him. Xu Mingwei had gone to Eldest Princess's residence for a meal earlier, but she was already aware that they were roasted suckling pigs for lunch. Very soon, news of this matter reached the empress, and Eldest Princess was invited to the Eternal Music Hall as soon as she got up for her afternoon nap. Not only was she fined two months' worth of money, but she also had to write a hundred word book.
"Monthly money is still alright, but that hundred word book of thinking is really embarrassing for Eldest Princess to death. If she knew what her mistake was, she could still write it. But the problem was that she did not know where she was wrong. It was sister Yang who gave the Eldest Princess the idea later on, and finally passed. " Fu Ninghui said with a smile.
Xu Mingwei remained silent with a calm gaze, then said with a smile, "Since it's over, then it's over. Mingwei would really like to see the Western Bell that Sister Fu spoke of.
Fu Ninghui lightly pushed her, and laughed, "Seventh Sister is so boring, I was still found out by little sister Jinxi. Even if I were to be more suspenseful, I wouldn't take the bait so easily."
She sighed again, "Forget it, I'll tell you all about it in one breath. We didn't hide this from you, though. I came here with Jinxi yesterday, and then came to Eldest Princess. I only found out about her unhappy expression, and you found out what happened afterwards. Jin Xi said that the Empress blamed the Eldest Princess for not treating everyone the same. A gentleman choosing a friend should not be purely out of personal preferences, but should be able to find a quality in everyone that he did not have. After receiving guidance from Eldest Princess, he finally knew how to write that hundred word thought book. Originally, I wanted to keep you in suspense, but little sister Jinxi said that you already had the answer in your heart, so you definitely won't do as I say. I still won't believe it, but today I'll give it a try, and it's really like that! "
Xu Mingwei still looked at her with a smile and did not deny. Fu Ninghui felt that it was boring and changed the topic, "Since even Eldest Princess has been questioned by the Empress, then I will not ask for everything. When we return home, I will ask my mother.
Xu Mingwei nodded her head, and said: "Of course I came, then I will wait for sister Fu's invitation."
The two of them put this topic aside and talked about Fang Liang's two masters again.
Fu Ninghui said, "I heard of the names of the two masters at home. If I didn't know that they were invited to the palace, my father would have invited them to the mansion."
Xu Mingwei laughed, "Sister's house doesn't have a wise man, she is also famous for being a sage, even other houses wouldn't be able to look forward to her."
Fu Ninghui sighed, "How can a wise man be enough, just my brothers and cousins are enough to keep them busy."
"Even a lot of brothers have their own troubles." When Xu Mingwei thought of Xu Mingbai and Xu Mingzhang, she couldn't help but feel annoyed.
Fu Ninghui clapped her hands and laughed, "Who said I wasn't?"
The Fu Clan was close by, hence the carriage first sent Fu Ninghui there. When she got off the car, Xu Mingwei heard a boy's voice outside. One of them was changing his voice, and asked Fu Ninghui if shshehad suffered any grievances in the palace, so she must be the young master of the Fu Clan, the other voice was clearer, sounding like an eight or nine year old boy, but pretended to be mature, and asked Fu Ninghui if he heard anything from her teacher at the palace. It was extremely funny. Xu Mingwei did not know whether he was the Second Master or the Third Master, but at this time, the carriage driver waved his whip, and following the whinnies of the horses, the carriage wheels headed towards the Xu Residence, he did not know what they had said, but hearing Fu Ninghui's carefree laughter, it shook the carriage.
Having more brothers was also better than having more brothers. Xu Mingwei smiled as she lifted the curtain. When she looked back, there was already no one at the Fu Clan's gate. She didn't think much of it. When she turned around, she saw Peaches looking at her with an inquisitive expression.
"What's wrong, is something wrong with my face?"
She shrank back, but still couldn't help but to ask curiously, "Is Master and Master Fourth not good to the young lady?" Master Eldest Wife is also like this servant's parents.
Xu Mingwei was completely stunned by her question, she did not know where she got such a thought. Perhaps it was because when she told Fu Ninghui that there were a lot of brothers and sisters who had their own troubles, she was moved, and could only shake her head and laugh, "For things like this, you will know when you see it for yourself."
Peaches gave a slightly disappointed "Oh".
Xu Mingwei smiled as she shook her head. It would take a long time for this silly girl to wake up. In the next moment, the carriage came to a stop in front of the Xu Family residence. Although Xu Mingwei knew that the family would not be able to return after sweeping the tomb, she still looked forward to it a little when she got off the carriage. However, she still felt a little disappointed when she saw Second Branch Aunt and the Lady Ji's wet nurse waiting at the door with a bunch of little girls.
