Chapter 872

After appeasing her daughter, she hurried back to Jin's mansion.

After returning home, she thought of her daughter's pale and pitiful appearance, and the more she thought about it, the more her heart ached.

"Where's Wei Shi?" She asked the maid beside her.

The maid said: "Miss Wei is in her room."

"It's this time, and you don't know how to serve? Her master has no rules, and she doesn't have any rules?" Mrs. Jin said with a sullen face, "I used to think she was a good person, but who knows that she just looks good! Sure enough, there is a saying that That's right, marrying a wife, marrying a virtuous person, taking a concubine and taking sex. After all, the Fang family is dignified and stable, and the Wei family is only worthy of being a concubine!"

When Hongdou was called to serve, she saw the gloomy face of her mother-in-law.

"Mother." She greeted calmly.

Mrs. Jin frowned and looked at her.

For some reason, when I saw her hibiscus face before, I still liked it, but now, no matter how I look at it, I find it seductive and disgusting.

She was just like her master!

"Our Jin family is a family of poetry and etiquette, Mrs. Wei, your clothes are too coquettish." Mrs. Jin said, "Look at Mrs. Fang, that is the appearance of our young lady."

Hongdou looked down at herself, the jasper-colored skirt didn't even have a hint of red. The only more ornate ornament on the whole body is a pair of pure gold necklaces inlaid with rubies given to her by the empress.

"Your collar is too eye-catching." Mrs. Jin frowned.

"This is a reward from the empress. It's not over the fifteenth day. I wear it to show respect to my empress." Hongdou said calmly, "If mother doesn't like it, I won't wear it after the Lantern Festival."

"You carried the empress out, how dare I say anything."

Mrs. Jin kept a cold face and asked someone to arrange meals.

She ate alone, and made red bean and ginseng soup for a while, let her serve vegetables for a while, and asked her to go to the kitchen to cook vegetables for a while.

"Anyway, that's what you used to do in the palace," she said.

When it was dark, and even the servants went to eat, Mrs. Jin did not let the red beans go, but asked her to set up rules and wait for her to chant scriptures.

When it was time for her to sleep, she asked Hongdou to look at the candlelight.

It was not until midnight that the red beans were released.

Hong Dou returned to her room, her eyes darkened from hunger, she ate two bites in a hurry, and not long after she fell asleep, she was called up again, saying that she was asked to go to the kitchen to make soup.

"Why do you ask grandma to do this?" Tian Xiang complained, "Madam was not such a mean person before, what's wrong now..."

Hongdou didn't say anything, put on her clothes and went to the kitchen.

Jin Lan didn't see her when she came back, but finally saw her in her mother's room.

"Mom, how do you let Hongdou cook?" Jin Lan couldn't help asking with a frown when she saw that Hongdou's hands were red from the cold.

Mrs. Jin said: "Why, she can't do it? Didn't she serve people every day in the palace? Well, don't worry about these trivial matters. Wei Shi, you go out first, Lan'er, you invite your father over, I will tell you You have something to discuss."

Jin Lan asked, "What's the matter?"

"You call your father first." Madam Jin glanced at Hongdou, "Still going out?"

Red beans go out.

She didn't go far when she vaguely heard the words "queen" and "jealous woman".

Her footsteps stopped.

Master Jin was invited over. Seeing his wife's gloomy expression and his son's expression not looking very good, he felt a little uneasy, and asked, "Why, is Concubine Jing's condition not good?"

"Not good, very bad!" Mrs. Jin said with red eyes, "When Yao'er was at home, not to mention pampered, she never suffered any grievances. Now she is in the palace, but she is bullied like this. This mother's heart will be broken."
