Chapter 477: Past grudges are not worth mentioning
Lu Jingxun sat down, feeling bored and not wanting to talk.
Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Wang Xue Ning did not say anything, but quietly walked behind him and massaged his shoulders.
Lu Jingxun closed his eyes and felt his tense body relax little by little.
Seeing that Lu Jingxun's frown was gradually relaxed, Wang Xuening said, "Would you like to eat something first, my Lord?"
Lu Jingxun opened his eyes and saw the food on the table.
A plate of green vegetables and a bowl of porridge.
He said, "I've made you suffer these past two days."
Wang Xue Ning chuckled: "My Lord, others may not know, don't you know either?"
Wang Xuening poured a bowl of porridge and placed it in front of Lu Jingxun: "I am the daughter of a poor family. I am not afraid of hardship. I just hope to be with the prince forever."
Listening to Wang Xuening's heartwarming words, and then thinking about Dong Xuaner's actions just now, the difference is immediately clear.
Lu Jingxun held Wang Xuening's hand and said nothing, but it seemed like he had said everything.
The two of them sat there next to each other, eating quietly.
If you want to know where the food is the best in Yongkang Marquis Mansion, it must be Yu Xiuying's.
They didn't have fresh meat, but they had pickled bacon and a small vegetable patch. Originally, the vegetable patch was planted with flowers and plants, but Yu Xiuying was really bored in the mansion, so she asked someone to pull up the small garden in their yard and plant vegetables instead.
When Lu Jingxun saw this once, he frowned, but he didn't say anything. But the dissatisfaction in his eyes was still obvious.
Yu Xiuying didn't care. Her relationship with everyone in the mansion was neither good nor bad. She didn't go to others to chat and gossip, and others didn't go to her.
Living in the mansion, she couldn't go out every day. If she didn't find something to do, she would be bored to death.
Who knew that her unintentional action would come in handy at this critical moment.
Although the vegetable garden is not big, there are quite a few vegetables planted, with some of each type planted. You say that these vegetables must have been used for several meals in the Marquis' Mansion, but if they are just for the people in their yard to eat, then these vegetables can still be eaten for a few days.
After being forbidden to go out for several days, the things in the mansion were finally used up.
Now there are no vegetables to eat. Not only that, the rice porridge has turned into rice soup.
Looking at his soupy meal, and considering the torment she had endured over the past few days, the wife of Marquis Yongkang couldn't eat a single bite.
Nanny Li felt so distressed when she saw the wife of Marquis Yongkang like this.
"Ma'am, please eat something."
Madam Yongkang waved her hand and said, "Take it away. I can't eat any more."
Nanny Li took a look at the food. Not to mention the wife of Marquis Yongkang, even the servants usually ate better than this.
She waved to the servants, signaling them to take it out.
He also retreated.
"Mammy, I know a place where I can get food."
Nanny Li didn't take it seriously at all, and subconsciously asked casually, "Where?"
"Mrs. Yu's place."
"she?"
Nanny Li didn't believe it at first, but suddenly she thought of Lu Shian. Lu Shian was a grain dealer, and Yu Xiuying also had a vegetable garden in her yard.
Nanny Li suddenly became alert: "I'll go check it out now."
Yu Xiuying and her mother had just finished their meal, and she was sitting under the eaves. In the yard, Ziyuan was holding a piece of peach cake in her hand, eating and playing at the same time.
"Ziyuan, slow down."
Zi Yuan laughed, holding a peach cake in one hand and a cart in the other.
When the cart moves, the small wooden wings on it will flap.
Ying'er reminded her, "Young Madam, you forgot that Miss Shi'an said that Miss Ziyuan is not allowed to play while she is eating."
Yu Xiuying smiled and said, "It's rare that Ziyuan is so happy today, let her play for a while. Oh, by the way, go get her milk.
Ziyuan should drink two cups of milk every day, no less.
This was also what Lu Shian instructed.
When Nanny Li came in, she saw Ziyuan holding a peach cake in one hand and pushing a toy with the other, and she was gulping down the milk handed to her by the maid.
She thought to herself that she had come to the right place. The mansion had been sealed for several days and there was not much food left in the mansion. However, Ziyuan could still eat peach cakes and drink milk, which showed that there was a foundation here.
When Yu Xiuying saw that it was the nanny beside the wife of Marquis Yongkang, the smile on her face was no longer as relaxed as before.
"What are you doing here, Mammy?"
Madam Li bowed and saluted: "Hehe, I pay my respects to Madam Yu."
"Mommy, you don't have to be polite."
Nanny Li stood up and glanced at the maid beside her. Yu Xiuying knew that she had something to say, but she had no intention of sending Ying'er away.
"Madame Li, just say whatever you want to say. This girl is trustworthy."
Nanny Li smiled awkwardly, "Since Madam Yu has said so, then I will not hide it. You know what has been going on in the mansion these days. We don't have many food lovers in our mansion, but the higher-ups haven't said when they will clear our name."
She looked up at Yu Xiuying with a guilty look in her eyes: "Well, I'll tell you the truth. We don't have much food in our house. Madam has been working so hard these days and can't eat or sleep well. I just want to come to you and ask for some food."
She spoke in one breath, her old face too embarrassed to raise its head.
She has been following the wife of Marquis Yongkang for so many years, and has always been in glory wherever she goes. She has never asked anyone for food.
But right now, the wife of Marquis Yongkang really needs to eat something nutritious.
Seeing that Yu Xiuying was still silent, Li Ma Ma thought that Yu Xiuying was refusing, so she smiled bitterly and said, "In that case, I will take my leave first."
She turned around and walked out a few steps before Yu Xiuying's voice came from behind her: "Madame Li, wait a moment."
Nanny Li's disappointed expression turned into surprise.
Yu Xiuying asked Ying'er to pick some vegetables, and asked Ying'er to go to the small kitchen to get some dried chicken and bacon, and also to get some pickled duck eggs and eggs.
He actually took several small baskets of various things.
"Madame Li, take these first. If you don't have enough, come back for more."
Nanny Li looked at the food the maid was carrying and couldn't help but thank her again and again.
"Thank you, Madam Yu Shao. Thank you, Madam Yu Shao."
Judging from the attitude with which the things were given, Nanny Li could not carry so much by herself, so Yu Xiuying asked the maid to deliver them.
After seeing Nanny Li off, Ying'er asked when she didn't understand.
"Madam, Madam Yongkang made things so difficult for us before, why should we give her food now?"
Yu Xiuying sighed and sat back in the rocking chair.
"The past is the past, and the present is the present. She made trouble for me a lot in the past, and I didn't let her off. Now that she has come back to the mansion, she has not made things difficult for us. And now is a critical moment. We are on the same boat. She can't escape, and neither can I."
What she didn't say was that after so many days, there had been no news at all, and no one knew what would happen to the Marquis' Mansion. If it was determined that the Marquis' Mansion had secretly instigated Lu Jinghui to secretly mine gold, then more than 60 lives would have been lost, including the entire Marquis' Mansion and the servants.
At this critical moment, the previous grudges are not worth mentioning at all.
Ying'er pursed her lips and said in her heart: That's not the case, Miss Shi'an will not let anything happen to you, she is now the prince's most beloved concubine.
In fact, Yu Xiuying didn’t feel that scared at all. It seemed that she was getting braver.
She always felt that even if everyone in the Marquis' Mansion would be beheaded, her daughter, Shi'an would find a way to save her.
