Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother
Chapter 9 Behind the Scenes
"I did go and tell her. Sister Zhilan said she would tell the eldest lady later." Hongyu muttered softly, raised her head and glanced at Ye Qianlin. Seeing that the other party was glaring at her, she swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
Zhilan was always by Ye Yunzi's side, and was also shocked when she heard this. She did accept Hongyu's money, but she deliberately didn't pass on the message, hoping that Ye Yunzi would pay less attention to Ye Qianlin.
Zhilan's eyes flashed with panic, but she quickly concealed it, but Ye Yunzi caught it sharply. Ye Yunzi's heart sank, but she remained calm on the surface.
"My elder sister is here, what nonsense are you talking about? Why would Zhilan deliberately not pass on the message?"
Ye Qianlin glared at Hongyu fiercely, trying to protect Zhilan. She knew clearly that Hongyu was telling the truth and Zhilan was bullying others by taking advantage of her power. Today, she had to teach this girl a lesson.
Zhilan felt even more resentful after hearing what Ye Qianlin said. She held the handkerchief tightly in her hand. Seeing Ye Yunzi looking at her, she immediately calmed down: "Hongyu did mention that the fourth young lady had something to do, but the eldest young lady was accompanying the old lady at the time, so we couldn't disturb her. After the queen mother left, I didn't have time to say anything, and the fourth young lady came to the front hall by herself, so the news didn't spread."
Ye Yunzi looked calm on the surface, but she was relieved in her heart. Her maid was smart, not bad. She could only teach her own people, and outsiders were not allowed to interfere!
These words were like a slap in Ye Qianlin's face. She had punished her men indiscriminately. Now that the truth was out, she felt her face burning.
"Okay, let's stop here. Zhiyan's hand is injured, and you are short of manpower here, so I'll assign someone to you. Hongyun, the second-class maid in my yard is steady, so let her cooperate with Hongyu and lend a hand by your side."
Ye Yunzi glanced and caught a glimpse of Hongyun dodging at the door. Her heart sank, but her face remained calm as usual. The majesty in her words made people shudder unconsciously.
When Ye Qianlin heard Hong Yun's name, her heartstrings tightened and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes. She had tried to save Hong Yun and bribed her with it. Now Ye Yunzi sent Hong Yun here. Did she notice something?
Ye Qianlin's eyes flashed as she looked at Hong Yun. Hong Yun hurriedly shook her head and then knelt down in front of Ye Yunzi: "Miss, I, Hong Yun, did something wrong. I will correct it!"
Ye Yunzi took in this scene, sneered inwardly, took a deep breath and said, "What are you doing? I just asked you to help Hongyu take care of the fourth young lady. Do you feel tired or don't want to listen to my orders?"
Ye Qianlin's face sank. What does Ye Yunzi mean by this? Your people don't want to come to my place. It's obvious that they look down on me. From the main house to the concubine's courtyard, who would be willing to come? Isn't this deliberately embarrassing me?
She glared at Hongyun fiercely, secretly cursing Hongyun for being stupid in her heart, but her face showed a bit of grievance. She turned to Ye Yunzi and said, "Don't worry, big sister. There are enough people in the yard. Mother often asks her sister Huancai to come and help. Hongyun doesn't have to come specially."
Listening to Ye Yunzi's words, Ye Qianlin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she had not noticed Hong Yun's problem. However, the maids sent by my mother were all senior maids. Do you think I would care about a second-class maid like you?
Ye Yunzi's lips curled up slightly, with a hint of playfulness in her smile: "Huancai is an important person around mother after all, it would be inconvenient for her to come and serve you often. Hongyun is steady, even if you are worried, let her take care of you temporarily, I will feel more at ease, so don't refuse."
After finishing her words, Ye Yunzi sighed softly, as if she remembered something: "Oh, I have a root of old mountain ginseng here, which is very good for removing dampness and cold. I'll give it to you. Hongyu's hands are inconvenient, so let Hongyun make ginseng soup."
Ye Yunzi gave Zhihua a look, and Zhihua understood what she meant. She immediately took the ginseng from the maid next to her and put it into Hongyun's arms. Hongyun didn't know whether to take it or not, so she had to accept it reluctantly.
Ye Qianlin was very unhappy in her heart, but she could only say "thank you" and force a smile that was uglier than crying.
After Ye Yunzi and the others walked away, Ye Qianlin flicked her hand and the pillow flew out with a "bang". She had wanted to take advantage of the stingy Ye Yunzi today, but she ended up being tricked by her cleverness. She felt like being slapped in the face.
Ye Qianlin was filled with rage, his eyes widened, his mind full of thoughts of revenge, and his eyes flashed with a cunning light.
All the way from Yulin Courtyard to Huashang Courtyard, Ye Yunzi said nothing. Zhihua and Zhiyan followed closely behind her, and they could feel that the air around them had frozen.
The two occasionally exchanged glances but didn't dare to say anything. Zhiyan felt like there was a rabbit in her heart, fluttering around. She could guess why the eldest lady was so angry.
As soon as she stepped into Huashang Courtyard, Ye Yunzi glanced at the busy servants. Although her face was calm, it was a little cold. Her clear eyes were as deep as a pool, and there was a chill in her calmness, which made people feel nervous.
"Zhihua, gather everyone in the front yard. I have something to announce." Ye Yunzi was about to enter the house when she suddenly stopped, turned around and gave the order.
Zhihua's heart tightened, she secretly glanced at Zhiyan, and quickly responded to do it. Zhiyan rubbed the corner of her clothes nervously, secretly regretting her impulsiveness, but she really couldn't stand others treating the eldest daughter as a fool, saying one thing in front of her and another behind her back.
Today, the eldest lady assigned the servants in the courtyard to Ye Qianlin. It was depressing just thinking about it. Although I was a little worried, I felt more unwilling and aggrieved!
Soon, Zhihua gathered more than 20 people in the courtyard. Ye Yunzi sat down and slowly scanned the crowd. Some of them were familiar to her, but some faces were blurred due to the passage of time.
"I have invited everyone here today because I have a few things to say." Ye Yunzi spoke gently, and under the sunlight, she looked particularly energetic. Her appearance was not stunning, but the temperament she exuded from inside out was something that others could not match. At least in the Prime Minister's Mansion, other young ladies did not have this aura.
Everyone looked at each other. It was rare to see the young lady so serious. Although they were a little curious, they did not care too much.
After all, the eldest lady has a gentle personality on weekdays and is always tolerant of small mistakes made by servants. Over time, the servants of Huashang Courtyard have become much more relaxed.
Ye Yunzi looked at the indifferent expressions of the crowd and her heart sank. The corners of her mouth rose slightly and her voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, but with a hint of coldness and majesty that could not be ignored.
"You were all picked for me by my mother. I haven't changed anyone in all these years. Even the newcomers have been here for more than a year. Compared with other courtyards, you can be considered as veterans.
I think you all know the rules of this mansion. Today, I will only emphasize three points. If anyone is seated, they will know what to do. "
As she spoke, she raised her eyes slightly and scanned the whole place. There was a hint of coldness in her bright eyes: "First, since you have entered Huashang Courtyard, you must be sure who your master is. If I catch you with second thoughts, the door of the Washing Courtyard will be open to you at any time. There is no shortage of manpower there!"
