Chapter 0006 – A Helping Hand (2 / 2)

When she saw Xu’s silence, she boldly said, “As for not taking the child-avoidance soup, it was also the young master’s permission! Not only that, the young master is eager to get a child, but he also ordered the kitchen to cook daily for the slave girl to facilitate the pregnancy of the soup, this Biyun courtyard everyone can testify!”

Xu pursed her lips slightly.

Although Chen Zisheng was her own son, he had not been close to her because he had been raised by his nurse when he was young. Every time she urged him to hurry up and have a child, he looked impatient, and she thought he was too playful to think about having an heir.

Xu suddenly thought of the conditions that the Xie family had agreed to when they married their daughter – Xie Jialong would not produce anything for three years before Chen Zisheng could take a concubine.

Xie Jialong does not let her family son Sheng touch all day long, can not only let the Tongfang birth! Poor son, he can only put all his hopes in the belly of a lowly maid!

Xu ruthlessly gouged out Xie Jialong, if her eyes could knife people, Xie Jialong would have been full of holes.

Xie Jialong didn’t receive Xu’s look, and she didn’t care what happened to Chen Zisheng and Xiang Capsicum. She was still in a hurry to go back and copy her newly acquired calligraphy, so that this disgraceful maid could hurry up and get out of here.

Looking at Xu’s half-hearted silence, Xie Jialong had no choice but to open her mouth and plead for mercy:

“Mother, father’s fiftieth birthday is approaching, the house is just short of manpower, although this girl, Xiang Cui, is of lower origin, but her body contract is in my hands, and she is literate, so she may still be able to help, which is better than hiring someone from the outside. It’s better to spare her.”

Recently, the Chen family’s concubine’s aunt gave birth to a big fat boy in Su Wang Fu, Su Wang was very pleased, promoted her to the side consort. The old man this really became a royal relative, coinciding with next month is his fiftieth birthday, the side consort will also come to celebrate the birthday, the Chen family naturally want to make a big special organization.

Xu knew that she shouldn’t make trouble at this time, but she didn’t really want to bother with Xie Jialong. Thinking of her poor son, she snorted coldly, “I’m tired today, so let’s disperse.”

Xu said to go and left, leaving the crowd looking at each other, not knowing which show this is singing.

Xiang Capsicum also froze for half a second, kneeling in place, not daring to move, and only when the people dispersed did she realize that she had escaped again.

No one cared, and she got up dreamily, stumbling about to head out the door, when a gossamer figure held her up.

It was the round-faced woman who had just spoken for her.

The woman looked at Xiang Capsicum’s face, a trace of intolerance flashed in her eyes, and her voice was much gentler when she opened her mouth, “Little girl, this face of yours is swollen and your clothes are torn, first go to my place to get some medicine and clothes to change into.”

At this moment, Xiang Capsicum only felt dizzy, and only wanted to quickly return to her hut to rest. She wanted to refuse, but recognized that this woman was the same one who had just helped herself, and guessed that this was probably one of the kindly aunts, and hesitated to know how to refuse.

Aunt Shen looked at Xiang Capsicum, and a wave of pity welled up in her heart, as if she had seen herself when she first entered the house.

At that time she had also fought to the death for nothing more than justice.

However, after staying in the house for a long time, she gradually realized that the interests of this house are paramount, and justice is just a distant hope. She sighed softly, her heart mixed feelings.

Looking at Xiang Capsicum’s hesitant expression, Aunt Shen said softly, ”I don’t have any malicious intent. I know you’ve been wronged, you first follow me to fetch medicine and clothes, you’re in the end the eldest young master’s favored servant girl, if you go back like this, the people in Biyun courtyard won’t know what to say about you. A woman’s looks are important, your face is injured, you need to use a better ointment quickly.”

Fragrant Capsule looked at the round-faced woman’s gentle eyes, and the defenses in her heart instantly collapsed.

It had been a long time since anyone had said something so sweet to her.

She nodded and silently followed the woman’s ground, following her into a small courtyard on one side.

It was already dark when he walked into the small courtyard. All the way Xiang Capsicum kept her head down and kept wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, her heart so troubled that she didn’t notice the name of the small courtyard-

“Pine Breeze Academy”
