"Madam, you have been working for so long. I have asked the young monk in the temple to arrange a room for you. How about you go in and take a rest, and then come back after lunch?" Nanny Chen asked diligently. The arrangement was very appropriate. Su Wenyue naturally would not object. She nodded and did as Nanny Chen said.
"Miss, I heard that the food in Lingyin Temple tastes very good, even better than that in the big restaurants in the city. It's a rare opportunity to come here, so we must have a good meal!" Xiao Xile said leisurely. She is now studying cooking very hard, so she is more interested in food.
"Tsk, you country bumpkin who has never seen the world, you are running to the temple just for a meal, the big restaurants in the city are nothing, usually the good chefs are in the mansions of the rich families, it's really embarrassing!"
As soon as Xiaoxi finished speaking, she heard a sneering sound. A maid in green clothes came over with a beautiful woman. She was called a woman, but in fact it was just her appearance. She didn't look very old, only about seventeen or eighteen years old. The maid in green clothes spoke, looking at Su Wenyue and her servants with contempt. The woman had a proud face, and it was obvious that she looked down on others.
Most of these people have good family backgrounds, which is why they are so self-righteous and look down on others. Su Wenyue did not want to offend them, nor did she intend to argue with them. She greeted the master and servant and then took Nanny Chen and Xiaoxi into the room arranged by the little monk. Xiaoxi was a little indignant and wanted to argue with the maid in green, but Su Wenyue warned her with a look and she endured it.
The master and servant found Su Wenyue's behavior boring. The maid in green clothes curled her lips and said, "You are really a country bumpkin. You don't know any etiquette at all!"
The young monk clasped his hands together, seemingly not noticing this dispute, his facial expression remained unchanged, yet he seemed to have seen everything.
"Miss, why don't you let me talk to that maid? Who does she think she is? She even laughed at us for being country bumpkins. And her master is so cold and arrogant, her eyes are up to the sky!" Xiaoxi had just swallowed her anger under Su Wenyue's warning, but now she couldn't help it when she got to the side room.
Su Wenyue did not rush to explain, but looked at Nanny Chen: "Xiaoxi is still too impatient, Nanny Chen, can you tell me why?"
"Yes, I think what Madam did was right. Although the master and servant were arrogant, we have no grudges against them. There is no need to argue with them and make enemies. What's wrong with holding back for a while? Your Excellency is still in a low position, and you need to be patient when doing serious things. Moreover, the master and servant's dress and arrogance show that their backgrounds are not ordinary. They are probably from aristocratic or famous families, so they are so proud and self-respecting and don't take others seriously. Although this behavior is hard to accept, it is better for us not to offend such people for now, otherwise it will bring trouble to you and the Su family if we are not careful."
Su Wenyue nodded and looked at Xiaoxi: "Now you understand why I stopped you. You are too impulsive. You need to be disciplined."
It seems that this matter has passed just like that, but fate is really a wonderful thing, even though it looks more like a "bad fate".
Su Wenyue and her two servants had lunch in the temple and were about to go back after a short rest. However, they met the master and servant again outside the temple. The two carriages passed each other. Su Wenyue always paid attention to low-key luxury. The appearance of the carriage looked inconspicuous, but the inside was very comfortable. Especially because she was pregnant, Han Yu had specially modified the carriage. However, everyone has different appreciation perspectives. It can be foreseen that Su Wenyue was despised by the master and servant as a bumpkin. Xiaoxi was not impulsive this time. She just gave the master and servant a speechless roll of the eyes and drove away in the carriage.
The maid in green clothes said again: "Uneducated bumpkin, wild girl!"
The maid in green not only did not lower her voice when she spoke ill of others, but deliberately raised her tone. Her words once again fell into the ears of Su Wenyue and her two servants. However, this time they were not angry, but rather found it somewhat funny. This maid in green loved to call people bumpkins, and she always said the same thing.
When they returned to the town, Su Wenyue and her servant met the master and servant again on the road. They laughed. This is really a bad fate! It seems that the master and servant probably live in this area.
Instead, the master and servant were a little surprised to see Su Wenyue and the others, especially the maid in green. When she saw the country bumpkins appear in front of her again, she thought she was dazzled. Most of the people living in this area were officials' families, so why were a few country bumpkins here?
"Move aside! What are the carriages doing blocking the way? Can't you see we are trying to pass?" Both carriages had to pass through the same lane, but that lane was not wide enough, so it was impossible for the master and servant to give way. Su Wenyue was about to signal Xiaoxi to drive the carriage aside when she heard the sharp voice of the maid in green. Su Wenyue frowned as she listened.
Perhaps because Su Wenyue went to Lingyin Temple, Han Yu was worried, so he took some time and came back in the evening. He saw that his wife was not only fine, but the depression between her brows had disappeared. He felt relieved and thought that this trip to Lingyin Temple was not in vain, and he had gained something.
Su Wenyue told Han Yu about the master and servant pair she had encountered repeatedly over the past few years. Han Yu frowned, but after listening to Su Wenyue's description, he roughly guessed who they were.
"I wonder if it's not the one from Lord Fang's family? If it's her, such behavior wouldn't be strange. That woman is very arrogant and has some problems in her brain. She relies on the fact that her family has produced one or two great figures. She is proud of her status, not only to you, but also to others. Little does she know that it was a few lifetimes ago. Who would believe her? Because Lord Fang has been excluded by his colleagues for a long time. He has been in the same position for seven or eight years and has not been promoted. He has always been at the seventh rank and has never moved. Who made him have a wife who is so good at offending people? Wife, you are not wronged, right?"
Han Yu's tone was full of sympathy for the other adult. Not everyone is lucky enough to marry a virtuous wife.
Su Wenyue shook her head. It was just a few unpleasant words said by the maid. She didn't take it to heart. After hearing what Han Yu said, she felt a little sympathy for Lord Fang. Then she thought again. The information compiled by her second brother mentioned Lord Fang and his wife. There was a brief description of Mrs. Fang and it was also mentioned that Mrs. Fang was quite "arrogant". Now she has seen it with her own eyes.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
On this day off, Han Yu also invited several colleagues to his home, including Lord Fang. Not only does Lord Fang have an unreliable wife, he himself is also a bit pedantic. A nerd who doesn't understand changes and can only talk about military affairs on paper, it is natural that he cannot get along in the military camp. The reason why Han Yu has been close to Lord Fang during this period is actually for a reason.
