MTL - The Stepmother is Unkind-Chapter 12

If Yin Mingyu has a bitter face and a deep hatred, it must be faked, in order to be a low-key man and to please himself better.

So when I returned to the East Courtyard, Yin Mingyu's excited mood showed, "It's almost time for the crab yellow fat, Jin'er, go to the pantry later and ask if there are crabs to eat."

"The maid asked in the morning, yes," Jin'er asked, "how do you plan to eat?"

When Yin Mingyu talked about eating, he said straightly, "I like the original flavor the most, just put some shredded **** and shredded green onion and steam it. Remember to make a bowl of sauce in the dining room."

Jin'er nodded and wrote it down.

Yin Mingyu's mouth was full of saliva, and he couldn't bear it any longer, "Bring me another pot of yellow wine."

Jin Er questioned: "Aren't you going to quit drinking?"

Yin Mingyu said with reason and reason: "Hexi wine has made an exception. What you promised before will naturally change with time. Besides, isn't it a pity that there is food but no wine?"

Jin was speechless.

You can sleep late, and you can eat what you want. Good things come in pairs. Yin Mingyu is in a better mood. He stepped into the east courtyard gate briskly, and suddenly stopped.

And she only stopped for a moment, then continued forward as if nothing had happened, and there was a trace of interest that was extremely difficult to detect in her eyes.

Jin'er came in later, and frowned when she saw the people in the courtyard.

In the courtyard, beside the maid Pomegranate, a young woman in a water-green ruffled skirt was standing. When she saw Yin Mingyu, her eyes flashed with surprise, she walked a few steps, and bowed down gracefully.

"My handmaid, Zhu Cao, meet the second lady."

The pomegranate is also a salute, and it is also called "Second Lady".

Jin'er stood behind Yin Mingyu and performed her duty as a maid with a blank face, "Our lady is now the young lady of the Xie family."

In fact, it doesn't matter if the close servants are called "Second Lady". Jin'er and Yin'er occasionally call them that. It's just that the person who calls them becomes Yuan Pei's maid, as if they don't agree with the identity of "Young Madam". It's always a little uncomfortable.

Although Yin Mingyu didn't care whether they agreed or not, Jin'er's reminder was reasonable and she naturally wouldn't reprimand Jin'er to show her tolerance.

Then he just smiled at Zhu Cao and Pomegranate, and said "Get up" lightly, and continued to move forward.

There is no reason for the lady to make way for the maid to pass through the room.

Vermilion grass and pomegranate had to quickly retreat to the side to make way, and all of a sudden they lost their momentum.

Pomegranate was already blushing because of Jin'er's words, but standing aside at this moment, bowed her head even more embarrassingly.

Zhu Cao was flexible. As soon as he touched Pomegranate's hand worriedly, he turned around slightly and said guiltily, "Young Madam..."

Yin Mingyu stopped, turned around, and looked at her quietly.

Zhu Cao was blessed again, and said guiltily: "Young madam forgives your sins, it's the maid who is thinking about the relationship in the Yin family, and the surprise was too out of order, and I forgot to remind Pomegranate, you must not blame her. "

Yin Mingyu's eyes moved, and her tone was very sincere and sad: "Why do you think so? Based on the relationship between you and Jin'er in Yin's house, she was just kindly reminding you. How could you misunderstand her?"

Zhucao: "…"

Jin'er immediately cooperated and said: "Sister Zhu Cao, everyone is from the Yin family's maidservant. If I have a grudge against you, I will tell a few things right and wrong in front of the young lady in private, and you won't know if you suffer."

"I'm really doing it for you..."

Zhu Cao's expression was stagnant, and soon she was moved again: "It was the maid and the pomegranate who misunderstood. It's good that the young lady doesn't get angry."

She then apologized to Jin Er and asked Jin Er to forgive her "sensitivity".

Jin'er was still a little immature, and was speechless again. She could only look at Yin Mingyu, wanting to get some instructions.

Yin Mingyu liked this drama, so he stepped forward and presided over justice generously: "Since you know you were wrong, go back and send some gifts to Jin'er. I will make the decision, and this matter will be written off."

"If she still blames you at that time, she is really not kind enough."

Why is it involved in compensation? Zhu Cao's expression was stiff, afraid of being seen out, so she hurriedly bowed her head and repeatedly agreed.

Yin Mingyu got another happiness, and good things come together three times. When he turned to leave again, he gave Jin Er a look of "learn more and make money".

Jin'er hugged the wooden box that was brought from Yin's house to Xie's house, brought back after a circle, and nodded instructed.

"Young lady..."

and also?

The master and servant looked at each other, Yin Mingyu was still curious, and stopped again while examining in his heart that he was too trustworthy.

"Young madam, the maid knows that she has a low status and does not dare to pray to be able to serve you. Could you ask the servant to toast a cup of tea to show your respect?" She said it with great respect and humility, which was very touching.

Yin Mingyu didn't have any turbulence in her heart, she just wondered that she had tossed around a bit, did she just want to have a cup of tea?

If you want to be favored, why don't you show it when Xie Qin comes over?

But Zhu Cao couldn't wait for her words, so she squeezed her sleeve nervously, and pleaded guilty by retreating: "It's the servant's fault, it's the maid's fault, it's the young lady's embarrassment, if the young lady is unwilling to drink the maid's tea Don't dare to say more."

Yin'er, Qingyu, and Hong Silk heard the movement and came out of the main room, just in time to see this scene.

During breakfast, Hong Si was waiting in the main room. Seeing the joking atmosphere of the three masters and servants, he talked to Qingyu, and both of them thought about it.

Hearing Zhu Cao's words at this time, Qing Yu and Hong Shu exchanged glances, and Hong Shu took a step forward and said, "Young Madam, are you back? Qing Yu said that Lang Jun's dinner will be served in the East Courtyard."

At this time, Xi Lan also walked in from outside the courtyard, with a puzzled look on Zhu Cao's body.

Qingyu glanced at Xi Lan with a smile on her face, then walked up and said, "Young Madam, it's not a big deal, so you might as well talk about it later."

Xi Lan hurriedly walked to Yin Mingyu, blocked the pomegranate, and saluted, "The maid greets the young lady."

Yin Mingyu's eyes flashed between the maids, his heart was amused, and he called Xi Lan up casually, and then she put aside the "toasting tea" without saying a word, and went back to the main room.

Xi Lan watched Mrs. Ji disappear into the door, and just then scolded Pomegranate with a cold face, "Have you finished your errand? Be lazy here!"

Pomegranate, ashamed, hurried away.

Later, Xi Lan looked at Zhu Cao again, and said away: "I still have errands, so it's inconvenient to accompany me."

"Xi Lan..."

But Xi Lan had already turned around and walked in the direction Pomegranate left, and had no intention of stopping at all.

Zhu Cao bit her lip, and when she saw someone in the courtyard was quietly looking at it, she made a wronged gesture and silently returned to the corner courtyard.

In the main room, Yin Mingyu put his head up and asked Qingyu and Red Silk, "Is there any problem with Zhucao serving tea?"

Qingyu respectfully said: "Young madam doesn't know, in fact, Zhu Cao has not yet served tea to the first madam."

"Huh?" Yin Mingyu sat upright slightly, "Didn't you serve tea?"

Jin'er and Yin'er were full of surprise, followed by surprise.

Qingyu nodded, "Langjun strictly forbids the mansion to discuss the master's right and wrong, the maid is not easy to talk about, but the first lady did not drink the tea of ​​Zhucao."

Yin Mingyu leaned on the back of the chair, thoughtful.

Therefore, Zhu Cao's general room is only in name, so if she wants to serve tea, she wants to be a real identity?

The eldest lady was filial and virtuous, and took the initiative to take a concubine for Xie Qin, but if it was not implemented, there must be one party who did not cooperate...

Men are unmoved by beauty. Of course, some people are motivated by self-preservation, but most of them are because there are more attractive pursuits, and temporary pleasures are not enough to shake them.

It's a joke for a person like Xie Qin who is dedicated to his career to protect his wife. There must be his order, as long as it is confirmed...

"Ha~" Yin Mingyu chuckled lightly. In this way, the East Court was clear to her.

Yin'er cried in confusion, "Miss?"

Yin Mingyu's smile deepened and urged Jin'er: "Go to the pantry, I want to eat steamed crabs today."

Jin'er bent her knees and backed out.

Yin'er scratched her ears and cheeks anxiously, "Miss..."

Yin Mingyu didn't say anything in front of Qingyu and Hongsi, and only joked: "I said long ago that I like the most delicate and gentle women to accompany me. Turn your head all day, and look at your monkey again."

Yin'er muttered: "The maid is a monkey, and even if she has learned Zhucao, she can only be a pretentious monkey, can she still become a fairy?"

Sapphire and Red Silk were amused.

Yin Mingyu glanced at her and laughed.

In the evening, Xie Qin came to the East Hospital for dinner.

Yin Mingyu put on Zhucao and brought tea to Xie Qin in person, "Langjun, drink tea~"

Xie Qin stared at the tea cup in front of him and didn't pick it up, "You... what's the matter?"

Yin Mingyu said in Zhuyan Zhuyu: "Langjun's unwillingness to drink the tea I respect must be my fault, and I will never dare to say more..."

Xie Qin frowned, took the tea cup from her hand, and held it up... After a long while, he still couldn't drink it, put it in his hand again, and asked her, "If you have something to do, speak up, don't be like that."

He paused slightly and glanced at her face suspiciously, "I heard that your grandmother reprimanded you, do you want me to stay overnight?"

Yin Mingyu quickly shook his head, "No!"

Xie Qin: "...Speak directly."

Yin Mingyu asked him directly: "What is Langjun's request for his wife?"

Xie Qin looked at her silently, and after a while, opened his lips: "It doesn't hurt the reputation of the Xie family, it's about me not making an opinion, not treating Xie Ce harshly, and nothing else."

"really?"

Xie Qin nodded, "A gentleman said a word."

Yin Mingyu's face was full of peach blossoms in an instant, "If a gentleman speaks, it is difficult for a horse to chase."

After she finished speaking, she quickly took the tea cup away and greeted Jin'er and Yin'er cheerfully: "Place the meal, where is my steamed crab?"

Xie Qin raised his hand to serve tea and stopped in mid-air, then slowly retracted it.

Really...crossing the river and tearing down the bridge...
