Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter
Chapter 5 Returning
At this time, the prince hurried in and shouted, "Stop."
The prince had spoken, so the nanny had no choice but to stop and stand aside indifferently.
Seeing her savior coming, Li Wanrong cried and crawled into the arms of the prince: "These servants are too much. They actually asked me to kneel down and serve tea to He Shulan."
The prince didn't care about the affairs in the backyard, but he still knew something. When a concubine offered tea to her mistress, she had to kneel down. Only after offering tea and getting the mistress's approval, could the concubine's status be recognized: "You kneel down and offer tea."
Li Wanrong, with tears in her eyes, looked at the prince in disbelief: "You want me to kneel down and serve tea."
"Yes! He Shulan is the mistress, you should kneel down and serve tea. Not only you, but all concubines in the mansions in the capital should kneel down and serve tea."
"I won't kneel." Li Wanrong protested loudly: "You are trampling on my dignity by doing this."
The prince was angered by Li Wanrong's words. He usually doted on Li Wanrong and didn't let her salute or kneel to him. Now in He Shulan's courtyard, he felt that Li Wanrong was unreasonable: "I have no dignity when I kneel and salute the emperor and the prince in the palace."
"Of course." Li Wanrong answered without hesitation: "Everyone is equal. Why should we kneel down?"
The prince quickly covered Li Wanrong's mouth and said, "You can just say this in private in front of me. How can you say it in public?"
He turned around and said to He Shulan who was sitting in the upper seat: "I will take her back today and come back to serve you tea another day."
"Since we are already in the mansion, it doesn't matter when we serve tea. But we need to learn Aunt Li's rules carefully, so as not to make fun of others when we go out."
The prince did not refute. Li Wanrong should really learn some rules. "You will arrange this matter."
"Okay." He Shulan showed a meaningful smile on her face. After the prince and Li Wanrong left, she said to Nanny Chen beside her:
"Go and teach Aunt Li the rules tomorrow, so she will remember the meaning of respect and inferiority."
"Don't worry, Princess. I will do my best to teach Aunt Li the rules."
Chun Xia on the side laughed out loud. She knew Nanny Chen's methods. Li Wanrong had suffered a lot, which made her so shameless and unscrupulous in front of the eldest lady, and she really thought that the eldest lady was a soft persimmon.
……
The prince dragged Li Wanrong towards the yard.
Li Wanrong's messy long hair was draped over her shoulders, and her small face, which was the size of a palm, was full of tear marks. Her pitiful appearance softened the prince's heart, and he put his arm around Li Wanrong's waist.
The intimate behavior of the two made the servants who passed by bow their heads one after another. When the two walked away, the servants gathered together to discuss: "In the heart of the prince, Aunt Li is irreplaceable. The prince ignored the newly married princess and accompanied Aunt Li."
The servant nodded and agreed: "We must serve Aunt Li more attentively in the future."
Back at the dean, the prince let go of Li Wanrong and said, "He Shulan is the mistress of the house. Although I married her to stop the rumors in the capital, you should not act nonsense in front of her. She is the mistress of the house of the prince's mansion, and her status is there."
These words filled Li Wanrong's heart with humiliation, but the prince's tone was unquestionable. She had been with the prince for so long and knew his character, and he always kept his word.
At this time, she did not dare to disobey the prince: ""Only by relying on the favor of the prince can she gain a foothold in the backyard: ""I really don't want to kneel down and serve tea to He Shulan."
"There is no room for negotiation on this matter. You have to kneel whether you don't want to or not. I have spoiled you so much that you have become more and more lawless. You even said that everyone is equal in front of He Shulan and the servants in the mansion. If this gets out and the ministers in the court complain to the emperor, I think you don't want to live anymore." After saying this, the prince flicked his sleeves and left the yard without paying any attention to Li Wanrong who was crying in grievance.
After the prince left, Li Wanrong no longer concealed her willful nature. She grabbed the vase on the table and threw it to the ground to vent her anger.
The servants standing outside serving dared not make a sound for fear of bringing trouble upon themselves. Only after Li Wanrong had vented enough did the servants dare to enter the room to clean up.
Xing'er, the personal maid, brought the poured tea and handed it to Li Wanrong: "Why do you have to be angry with the prince? Just bear with it a little and kneel down to serve tea to the princess. After all, she is the mistress." In her heart, kneeling down to serve tea to the mistress of the house was a matter of course. Although Li Wanrong's identity was a noble concubine, she was still a concubine, and a concubine should kneel down to the mistress of the house.
I don’t understand why Li Wanrong is so angry.
Li Wanrong calmed down after her anger subsided. She was unwilling to kneel down to He Shulan, but that was how the ancient harem was. She couldn't be unreasonable with the prince, so she could only use other methods to avoid kneeling down and serving tea: "If the hard way doesn't work, try the soft way."
"When it gets dark, go find the prince and tell him that I was so sad that I fainted in my room."
"Okay." Seeing that her master had figured it out, Xing'er put down the teacup in her hand and ran out happily.
……
Today is the day to visit parents' parents. He Shulan got up early, dressed neatly and sat in front of the window, waiting for the prince to come.
On the way back to the courtyard, Qiu Dong heard the servants' discussion and became anxious. He walked to He Shulan and said, "Princess, will the prince not accompany you back home?"
He Shulan showed a gentle smile on her face, and replied calmly: "Of course, no matter how much the prince dislikes me, he came to ask for marriage in person, and he will return with me for the sake of his own face."
Qiu Dong hesitated again and again, and decided to tell He Shulan what she heard: "I passed by the corridor and heard the servants in the mansion discussing that Li Wanrong and the prince had a quarrel yesterday, and the prince left in anger. The prince accompanied the old lady for dinner, and Li Wanrong's personal maid ran to the prince and told him that Li Wanrong was so angry that she fainted and called the prince away who was accompanying the old lady. The old lady was so angry that she didn't even eat dinner." At this point, she glanced at He Shulan's face and saw that she looked normal, and then said: "The prince personally fed Li Wanrong porridge. This kind of favor is really unique."
He Shulan was calm: "The prince's love for Li Wanrong is different from coming back with me. Don't worry, the prince will come to see me soon."
Qiu Xia was not only worried about whether the prince would go back with He Shulan, but also worried that He Shulan would be ignored by the prince and banished to the cold palace from now on: "Princess, why don't you care at all? You have to find a way to get the prince back from Li Wanrong."
Chunxia, who came over with the bird's nest, patted Qiudong on the head and said, "Girl, you don't do your job anymore and worry about your master. Miss knows what the prince is doing, and now the prince's heart is with the little hoof. It's useless for Miss to snatch it."
He Shulan did not respond to Chun Xia's words. She had never thought of competing for favor. She just wanted to hold the title of Princess of the County, hold the power of the County Prince's Mansion, and live a leisurely life. She did not say this out loud for fear of scaring the two of them.
After all, the wives and concubines in various mansions in the capital would use any means to win favor.
