Chapter 270: 1 Jade Hairpin
Chapter 270: 1 Jade Hairpin
Yin Ruyi was also shocked when she saw the whole grain flour cake in the young master's hand. The hand holding her hair trembled, and when she loosened her hand, her hair spread out.
She didn't care about her disheveled appearance anymore, she stepped forward and grabbed Fang Qingge's hand, and asked in disbelief,
"Sister Fang, you? You and your child are having such a hard time?
Don't be afraid, tell your sister, did the Crown Princess take advantage of the Crown Prince's absence from the East Palace to openly torture you?
Sister Fang, please don't hide it from me. I know the pain of being suppressed. I have also suffered this kind of pain before!"
Yin Ruyi seemed to lose control of her emotions all of a sudden, and she spoke to Fang Qingge with a choked voice that was full of emotion.
*
Fang Qingge was stunned.
Seeing Yin Ruyi's determined and distressed eyes, she quickly explained,
"Concubine Yin, you're overthinking. It's not necessary. Besides, I like eating this. It's also good for children to eat some whole grains."
"Sister Fang! You? Why are you still covering up for the Crown Princess? Don't forget that you are a hundred times stronger than her!
You now have all the prince's love, and most importantly, you have two children. Why are you afraid of her? ! "
Yin Ruyi was anxious and angry, her face flushed red, and she stomped her feet hard.
A look that hates iron not being steel.
After more than ten breaths,
When she saw Fang Qingge still had a calm and composed look, she sighed helplessly.
"Forget it! Since you don't want to say more, I won't ask any more questions.
I just hope that if Sister Fang gets into any trouble, she won’t treat my sister as an outsider.
Although my sister doesn't have any great abilities, she has now established herself in Prince Rui's Palace.
The prince let me take charge of part of the household affairs in the mansion, so I have some power! On weekdays, I still have the final say on these daily meals. Sister Fang, if you..."
"Concubine Yin!"
When Fang Qingge heard Yin Ruyi say this, she didn't want to explain anything anymore. She hurriedly interrupted Yin Ruyi who was about to continue speaking.
Changing the subject, he turned to the nurse and said,
"It won't upset the young master's stomach if he eats this whole grain noodle cake once in a while."
The wet nurse who was holding the young master stopped talking.
"Hehehe...Yes, yes, what Sister Fang said is right."
As if she felt that she was meddling in other people's business, Yin Ruyi smiled awkwardly and said yes.
*
Then he changed the subject, pointed at his messy long hair, and asked shyly,
"I wonder if Sister Fang would lend me a hairpin so I can put my hair up."
Fang Qingge didn't think much about it. They were just minor accidents. She apologized.
“I’m sorry to have Concubine Yin come here and break her jade hairpin.
Haitang, take one of my jade hairpins and tie it up for Concubine Yin's hair."
"Yes, Master."
Soon, Haitang took out a jade hairpin of excellent quality from Fang Qingge's dressing box, and skillfully tied a beautiful bun for Yin Ruyi.
"Thank you, Sister Fang. Your maid's craftsmanship is really amazing. Look, isn't it beautiful?"
The goal was achieved, and Yin Ruyi smiled like a flower. The palace maids in Yiqiu Courtyard felt that Yin Ruyi was a simple-minded and straightforward sister who truly regarded her master as her sister!
"Sister Fang, it's getting late. I can't stay here for long. I'll come back another day to visit the two children."
After saying this, he asked the palace servant who had followed him to leave the gift behind, thanked him, and went back.
*
There was an unexpected incident during Yin Ruyi's trip, but no one took it seriously as it was just a jade hairpin.
What Fang Qingge didn't know was that every piece of her jewelry was carefully selected by the prince, specially customized and engraved with the small words "Yi Qiu Yuan".
A moment of unguardedness may have sown the seeds of disaster.
*
After Concubine Yin took Chang Ge'er away, Fang Qingge went to see the babies.
At this time, the toys on the floor of the main house had been picked up by Mu Mian and the two wet nurses, but a few of them were missing limbs and piled aside.
When my younger sister Xiao Huajiao saw her mother coming in, she pouted and pointed at a pile of broken toys and started to complain.
"Mom, my little brother is so bad. He broke all our toys. My brother and I don't like him."
The big bump on my brother Xiao Bajiao's mouth has completely disappeared, and he can speak fluently again. He nodded and said,
"Mom, Chang Ge got angry when he saw my sister and I had so many toys.
He smashed this porcelain doll to the ground. He crushed this wooden boat. He also smashed this jade dragonfly to the ground. And this... Mom, these are my and my sister's treasures.
Humph! He did something bad and still pretended to cry. I don’t like him either.”
Fang Qingge quickly stepped forward, hugged the two babies, and gently patted their backs to comfort them.
When I think of someone as arrogant and domineering as Concubine Xiao, I realize that the children she raised would definitely have crooked minds.
He felt that his carelessness just now was not worth his momentary sympathy for the poor little prince who had lost his mother.
She comforted the two babies and said,
"Okay, we won't play with him anymore. When he corrects these bad habits, we can play with her. Okay?"
"Yes, yes, mother, my brother and I are the good kids. Chang Ge'er is the bad kid."
"Yes. Our babies are the most sensible and obedient!"
Nanny Jiang was also smiling and praising.
*
In the following days, although Yi Qiuyuan was cut off from meat, at least vegetables were still available. Fang Qingge closed the door and waited and saw what would happen.
At least there are plenty of delicious food and drinks in the space. If I feed the two children secretly, they will definitely not be malnourished.
*
Let's say,
That day, Concubine Yin returned to Ruyi Palace from the East Palace.
He was sent back without even being able to see Concubine Xiao.
She returned to Prince Rui's Palace alone, feeling exhausted. The injury on her knee from yesterday was aggravated by her trip to the palace today.
She ignored the probing of Concubine Li and others.
After closing the door to the courtyard, I took a bath, applied ointment, and went to bed. I didn't leave the gate of Lanyuan until the evening.
But in the middle of the night, King Rui sent someone to summon him to the outer study.
The one who came to deliver the message late at night was the head maid in the study, Mian'er. After knocking on the door, she stepped forward to greet Yin Ruyi and said,
"Concubine Yin, the prince has just returned home and asked you to take your things and go with me."
When Yin Ruyi heard King Rui's confident words, she felt bitter in her heart, but she still forced a smile and said,
"Yes. Good. Thank you Miss Mian'er for making the trip."
Yin Ruyi quickly dressed neatly and went to the outer study room with the help of two maids.
*
The study room late at night.
The lights are bright,
As soon as she stepped into the room, a voice rang out from behind the desk.
"Did you get it?"
Yin Ruyi was so frightened that she trembled and quickly knelt down to answer.
"Your Highness, I have asked Sister Fang for a jade hairpin."
"Oh, present it."
"Here."
Yin Ruyi walked over tremblingly and presented the jade hairpin with both hands.
