Chapter 481 Side Story: Winter Wheat and Yun Niang (Part 4)
From then on, Dongmai only had Miss in his heart.
To protect her mistress, Shangguan Jin, she was willing to offend all the other young ladies in the mansion, regardless of her own status.
Although he was punished for this.
But because of this incident, he was transferred to the young lady's courtyard.
Dongmai still remembers what Madam Shangguan said.
"You were bought by Jin'er, so Jin'er is your master. From now on, you must put Jin'er first in everything."
As for others, even us!
Anyone who tries to harm Jin'er is your enemy, understand?
Dongmai, who was then called Da Niu, kept all these words in mind.
Later, her name was changed to Dongmai by her wife.
Later, the young lady got engaged to the newly wealthy and powerful Duke of Dingguo.
In order for Miss to know herself and her enemy and be victorious in every battle, Dongmai even went out to inquire about the information.
It cost her two taels of silver that she had saved up for a long time!
Oh, so this Duke Dingguo was very good at fighting.
The family were farmers, and apart from an old lady, there was no one else in the family.
A lot of information has been obtained about winter wheat.
There won't be any more troubles between sisters-in-law in the future. There's one less elderly person to take care of. All I need to do is take good care of my mother-in-law.
To be honest, when Dongmai first heard the news, she felt that the Duke of Dingguo was not a good match for her young lady.
How wonderful is our young lady! She is proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
That Duke... he seems alright, I guess!
Although I'm not as skilled as you, Miss, as long as you like it, it's acceptable...
And so, Dongmai followed her young mistress to marry into the Duke of Dingguo's mansion.
Everyone has changed their address to "Miss" or "Madam".
The only exception is winter wheat, which they refuse to change.
"It's Miss! I want to call her Miss! Madam belongs to everyone, but Miss belongs to me alone, so I want to call her Miss."
Dongmai stubbornly insisted on speaking to everyone who wanted her to change her mind.
Fortunately, the young lady didn't care.
"It's just a name; you can call Dongmai whatever you want."
Winter wheat is very proud of this!
Look, the young lady still treats me well, allowing me to be called "Miss"! This is an honor that no one else has.
From then on, Dongmai devoted herself entirely to being good to Miss.
No matter what happens, Dongmai always considers whether this is beneficial to the young lady.
Yes! I'll do it right away!
No! Whoever wants to do it can do it! I'm not doing it...
But the good days didn't last long. Not long after the young lady became the wife of the Duke of Dingguo, and just as she became pregnant, trouble struck.
The Empress Dowager in the palace saw that the Duke of Dingguo was living too comfortably, and Shangguan Jin's smile was too bright.
Then the Duke of Dingguo bestowed a concubine upon him.
The Empress Dowager bestowed it, and no one could refuse.
Throughout the court, every official with a bit of power had someone in their family who had been given a position by the Empress Dowager.
Dongmai immediately got angry when she saw the smile disappear from her young mistress's face.
Anyone who makes things difficult for the young lady is her enemy.
Who cares if it was bestowed by the Empress Dowager? Even if it was bestowed by the Emperor Taizu, it wouldn't work.
Soon, through the conspiracy of the two wives of the Shangguan family, winter wheat became the primary weapon to prevent the Duke of Dingguo and the Empress Dowager from sleeping with the people they had given them.
Winter wheat has become known as "Aunt Winter" in everyone's mouth!
The concubine Xin in the palace only needed to follow the Empress Dowager's decree to summon the Duke of Dingguo away.
Winter wheat is bound to cause some trouble.
Then the Duke of Dingguo would come running to see the winter wheat.
Then Dongmai grabbed the Duke of Dingguo and wouldn't let him leave...
For this, Concubine Xin, who had just entered the mansion, was so angry that she almost ground her teeth to powder.
They've said plenty of sarcastic and indirect things, using veiled insults.
But winter wheat has only one main feature: it's what I made. What do you think? What are you going to do about it?
If you dare bite me, I dare bite you back!
Because winter wheat is very strong, even though Aunt Xin has been in the mansion for so long.
There was only one chance to meet the Duke of Dingguo...
Oh! They only managed to pull the pants down halfway before getting stuck...
From then on, Dongmai walked with a spring in her step and served the young lady with even more energy.
......
However, Dongmai quickly lost interest in Aunt Xin.
After once again tricking the Duke of Dingguo into sleeping in his own courtyard, Dongmai suddenly had a whimsical idea that day.
She even tricked the Duke into coming. Is Aunt Xin cursing her behind her back again?
They might even stick a voodoo doll in their own hands!
So, seeing that the Duke of Dingguo was asleep, Dongmai quietly went to the outside of Aunt Xin's courtyard to listen for any noise.
Through the flower wall in the courtyard, Dongmai saw Aunt Xin sitting alone in the courtyard, wiping away tears.
He didn't even have a maidservant by his side...
Dongmai snorted coldly at that moment.
Who are you trying to impress with this act?! The Duke won't see it! And the Empress Dowager in the palace certainly won't see it either...
Soon, Dongmai thought of a possibility!
The storybooks taught that this kind of behavior looks like someone is deliberately feigning illness, then they'll call a doctor, and then the Duke will feel sorry for them...
Holy crap! That Aunt Xin is ruthless! She's even capable of harming herself!
Dongmai is thinking about what tricks she should use to deal with Aunt Xin tomorrow!
But then Aunt Xin wiped away her tears, took out a small bronze mirror, and tried to force herself to smile...
