Chapter 720: Does Aunt Yu Really Intend to Know?
After Grandma Xi finished speaking, she turned around and left. The two palace maids followed closely, leaving everyone in the Xingguo Palace waiting to look at her back in astonishment, and then looked at the figure sitting in the middle with an almost frozen face. The ladies all lowered their heads silently.
Everyone could see that the madam was about to explode with anger and her face was distorted.
"Madam, please calm down, Grandma Xi didn't make it clear..." Grandma Yu advised cautiously.
The madam waved her hand, and the tea cup on the table immediately flipped over to the ground. The tea and porcelain fragments were all over the floor, making it a mess.
"Let's go and see who that amazing nanny is!" the madam said with trembling fingers.
After saying that, he forced himself to stand up.
"Mrs. Madam, don't be angry. What's the use of going at this time? If there is no such person, Grandma Xi will misunderstand. It's unreasonable for you to go like this. If there is such a person, even Grandma Xi will You're back, what's the use of going like this!" Nanny Yu was so anxious that she hurriedly stretched out her hand to support the lady.
If he really rushes over regardless, something big is going to happen!
These words reached the key point. The wife breathed heavily for a few times, and finally calmed down. She held Grandma Yu's hand and sat down heavily. At this time, without understanding anything, it was true that It's irrational.
"Go and find out about this nanny's upbringing!" After sitting down, the lady said in a deep voice after a while.
"Yes, I will go now. Madam, please calm down." Aunt Yu nodded in agreement, while softly comforting Madam.
When Aunt Xi was here before, the wife was very much in a show, but now she was really angry. The wife was not in good health. If there was really something wrong with this, no one could bear the responsibility.
"Don't go empty-handed, give me the bracelet that the Queen rewarded you with!" Mrs. Tai also knew that she was in poor health, so she calmed down and said.
Aunt Xi came to educate the young ladies of the Xingguo Palace. This was because the Empress had high regard for the Xingguo Palace. In order to show her favor, the Empress even asked Aunt Xi to bring four pairs of bracelets to reward these ladies. The young lady who enters the palace draft.
After Auntie Xi came, she just wanted to establish her prestige. She didn't think of giving the reward first, so she left it with Mrs. Yu. At this time, she could use it as an excuse for Auntie Yu to go over.
After listening to Mrs. Tai's words, Aunt Yu knew that Mrs. Tai had really calmed down. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and agreed repeatedly.
I found a maid and took a pair of bracelets to Piaoyun Courtyard.
Aunt Yu also wondered why Shao Wanru had a well-educated nanny around her. It had been a while since the Fifth Miss returned to the house, and she spent a lot of time in Piaoyun Courtyard. Why didn't she find such a person who could bring Aunt Xi to the side? The correctional nun is also there.
Piao Yun's courtyard was very quiet, as if the incident involving Aunt Xi just now didn't cause the slightest disturbance. Most of the servants didn't know that the old woman who came over so arrogantly just now was actually the Queen's confidant.
They all thought that she was just the housekeeper of some house. She might have something to do with the fifth lady, but seeing how she went back with a pale face in anger, she also knew that this person was in decline in the end.
At this moment, I was shocked when I saw Aunt Yu coming next to Mrs. Tai.
Hearing that Aunt Yu was coming, Shao Wanru asked Yu Jie to come out and politely invited Aunt Yu in. Once inside, she saw Shao Wanru sitting there with a peaceful face, embroidering a sachet.
"Fifth Miss, I'm here to give you a pair of bracelets. The Queen asked Aunt Xi to bring them as rewards to the ladies." Aunt Yu came up and saluted with a smile.
Shao Wanru asked Yu Jie to support her, put down the sachet in her hand, and said with a smile: "Aunt Yu, you're welcome. I'm sorry to bother you to go all this way!"
"Speaking of whether it's hard work or not, that's what an old slave should do!" Aunt Yu turned her eyes to the left and right as she spoke.
There were only two masters and servants, Shao Wanru and Yujie, in the house. No one else was in the house, and they were quiet and didn't look like they had a conflict with Grandma Xi just now.
The maid presented the jade bracelet, and Shao Wanru stood up and took it respectfully.
"The queen's intention is that all the ladies in our house are good, so she sent a nanny next to her to teach the ladies their daily etiquette. This is the reason. The palace is not like a house, if you make any mistakes, your life could be in danger."
Aunt Yu smiled and talked about the Queen's goodness calmly.
"The Empress is really caring." Shao Wanru said softly, but this caring was not for herself, but for the entire Xingguo Duke's palace.
"Just now, Auntie Xi said that she saw that Fifth Miss had a nun here to educate her. The wife said that she didn't know about it and she didn't know whether it was true or not!"
Aunt Yu smiled and brought up the topic.
"Aunt Yu is talking about Aunt Zheng?" Shao Wanru didn't hide anything, turned her head slightly, thought about it, and asked with a smile.
"Aunt Zheng? I remember that the nun in charge of this courtyard is not the nanny of the fifth lady. She seems to be... she seems to be named Yu, Aunt Yu, right?"
Aunt Yu thought for a while and acted as if she had thought about it for a long time, as if she really had never cared about Piaoyun Courtyard.
"The steward of Piaoyun Courtyard is indeed Aunt Yu." Shao Wanru nodded and confirmed.
"Then this Aunt Zheng is..."
"Aunt Zheng is my nanny. She was chosen by Mrs. Qin for me when I was in the Qin Mansion. The person who happened to come out of the palace at that time said she was very well-behaved. Mrs. Qin felt that I and I were very well-behaved. When Miss Qin first arrived in the capital, she didn't know the etiquette and was afraid of bumping into others, so she asked someone to teach her. Later, because she suddenly recognized her ancestors and returned to her clan, she went to the mountains to do some spiritual cultivation, and entrusted Aunt Zheng to her grandmother, who also I think it’s very good, I just arrived at Xingguo Duke’s Mansion recently.”
Shao Wanru's eyes changed, and he no longer concealed the existence of Aunt Zheng, and said clearly.
Therefore, not only did Aunt Zheng really come out of the palace, but she was also recognized by the eldest princess Ruian. It would not be easy for the Madam to drive her away even if she wanted to.
Against the eldest princess Ruian, the wife almost never won!
"Can I let the old slave meet this Aunt Zheng?" Aunt Yu was thinking in her mind, with a friendly smile on her face. Although she was someone close to the Madam, she always treated Shao Wanru with a kind of care. You Ruowu has good intentions, so it's not annoying to say this.
Aunt Yu had an intuition that this Aunt Zheng was not a simple person. Her ears were empty and her eyes were reality, and she would be able to see more clearly when the time came.
Since Shao Wanru pushed Aunt Zheng out, he naturally had no intention of letting Aunt Zheng hide from anyone. He nodded to Yu Jie, who withdrew and soon brought Aunt Zheng in.
Seeing that the woman who came in was only about thirty, Aunt Yu was stunned for a moment. She imagined that since she was a nun who came from the palace, she must be forty or fifty years old. How could she look so young and beautiful? Very beautiful, she looks more like a powerful maid beside each palace master in the palace.
When Nanny Zheng came in, she bowed to Shao Wanru first, then followed Shao Wanru's instructions and turned to Aunt Yu. After looking at Nanny Yu up and down for a few times, she asked, "Aunty Yu wants to see me?"
She looked and behaved very calmly, as if she didn't know that the Aunt Yu in front of her was the most powerful person around Mrs. Xingguo.
"Are you Aunt Zheng from the palace?" Aunt Yu asked cautiously after looking around.
Aunt Zheng smiled faintly and nodded.
"Since he came from the palace, why have you followed the fifth young lady for so many years? Even if you are a tutor, you can't follow the educated young lady for so long, right?" Aunt Yu said in confusion.
She is knowledgeable in following Mrs. Tai, and she also knows a lot about the upbringing of nannies. The Duke of Xingguo has also hired nuns. Several young ladies have also been educated for a period of time, especially the eldest lady, who has also been educated before. After about a year, that time is almost the longest.
If the current Nanny Zheng really followed from the Qin Mansion, it would have been at least three years.
If there were no special circumstances, how could it be possible to follow the educated lady for three years.
"I was kicked out of the palace. Naturally, I am different from the ordinary nuns who raised me. I plan to follow the fifth lady all the time!" Aunt Zheng said without shying away from this part of her past.
"Why were you kicked out?" Nanny Yu's heart skipped a beat and she asked subconsciously. She didn't realize something was wrong until she finished asking.
"Aunt Yu really intends to know?" Aunt Zheng looked at Aunt Yu thoughtfully and said, her scalp was exploding.
The more you know about the affairs in the palace, the faster you will die. Not to mention that she is just a servant, even the ladies with royal orders do not dare to inquire about the affairs of the palace casually.
"I was speechless just now." Grandma Yu lowered her head, not daring to ask any more questions, and changed the topic: "Did Grandma Xi leave just now after seeing Grandma Zheng?"
"If Grandma Xi leaves now, then maybe it is true!" Grandma Zheng said with a slight smile.
Shao Wanru watched calmly as Aunt Zheng faced Aunt Yu, picked up the tea given by Yu Jie, took a sip, put it down and continued to pick up her sachet to embroider.
This sachet is a new assignment assigned by Grandma Zheng, and it must be completed beautifully.
She doesn't mind that Aunt Yu comes to inquire about Aunt Zheng, and she doesn't mind that Mrs. Zheng knows that Aunt Zheng exists. Since she no longer intends to hide Aunt Zheng, it depends on how she will deal with the situation next.
"Will Aunt Zheng really follow Miss Fifth from now on?" Aunt Yu calmed down and tried to calm down.
"Since Fifth Miss has taken me in, I should follow Fifth Miss!" Nanny Zheng said without hesitation.
Aunt Yu couldn't accept these words for a while. She looked at Shao Wanru and smiled a little dryly: "Aunt Xi has gone back to the palace. What happens next? I can't be the master. But look at the queen in the palace. Your Majesty, your Majesty is not in good health right now, so I will go back first!"
"Aunt Yu, please!" Shao Wanru put down the sachet in his hand and stood up.
"Fifth Miss, the old slave is leaving!" Seeing Shao Wanru being so polite, Grandma Yu's smile relaxed a bit and she said.
