Chapter 136 Ask Bai Shiqi to pour tea
Bai Qingyou was forced to come to the brazier again, put in tea leaves first and then added some plum blossoms.
The fresh fragrance of tea and the subtle aroma of plum blossoms filled the entire room. Feng Jingshu sniffed and shook her head.
Because she did not bring out the best aroma of tea and plum blossoms, it was obvious that her tea art was not very good.
Gao Xinyao curled her lips: "What a waste of the prince's wife's good tea."
Bai Qingyou blushed and wanted to retort, "Doesn't it smell good? How could it be ruined?"
But the charcoal fire splashed everywhere, and many sparks fell on her hands, almost burning her hands completely red.
He swallowed the rebuttal that was about to come out of his mouth.
There was a sharp pain in her hands, and her hands were almost destroyed.
Seeing the sarcastic looks from the three men, she gritted her teeth and didn't make any sound, because her screams would only make these bitches even happier.
You can only swallow your anger and grit your teeth!
She's almost breaking my teeth, just wait for me!
Fortunately, brewing tea doesn't take much time.
“It’s ready.”
She breathed a sigh of relief and felt that she was finally free. She quickly covered her hands and moved further away from the charcoal fire.
She never wanted to be burned again.
Feng Jingshu raised her eyebrows, Hong Nian nodded, and looked at Bai Qingyou with a smile: "Please ask Concubine Bai to pour tea for the prince's wife and the two concubines."
Bai Qingyou pointed at his nose: "Me?"
"As a concubine, Bai Shiyi is so rude in front of the prince's wife and concubines. You should call yourself a slave."
Sharp-tongued! If looks could kill, Hong Nian would have been killed countless times by Bai Qingyou's eyes.
This little bitch is just taking advantage of the people around him!
She looked around but couldn't find any cloth to rest her hands on. The teapot was still on the charcoal fire, so you can imagine how hot it was.
This was another deliberate embarrassment, but she had no choice but to lift the teapot with her hands.
He thought that if he could lift it up, he would just burn the faces of those three women and disfigure them, then he would not be able to show off his power.
His eyes became more evil.
Hong Nian called a few more maids and watched her like a thief, fearing that she would do something detrimental to the prince's wife.
"Please, concubine Bai?"
The moment Bai Qingyou's hand touched the teapot:
“Oh, it’s so hot!”
She couldn't help but scream, and dropped the teapot onto the charcoal fire, spilling half of the tea. When water met fire, bursts of white smoke came out.
I looked at my hands again and saw that they were all red and scalded, with blisters all over them, and tears were falling down my face.
This was the greatest injustice she had suffered since she came here.
Hong Nian was not angry either: "Concubine Bai, can you make another pot?"
"You shed tears the first time you came to pay your respects to the princess. People who don't know would think that the princess punished you. Bai Shiqi, you must watch your eyes and mouth. If the news gets out, no one present will agree."
Gao Xinyao agreed: "Hong Nian is right. The prince's consort sister couldn't be kinder. She even sent medicine to me and cared about our health. If anyone dares to say something bad about my sister, I will be the first one to not forgive her."
After saying this, he threatened Bai Qingyou viciously. Bai Qingyou's tears dried up with fear and she dared not shed any more.
The backyard of the Third Prince's mansion was occupied by these three vicious women. She was so pitiful.
In this way, Bai Qingyou boiled the tea three times before he made a pot of tea. He endured the pain from the burns on his palms and poured it into the teacup.
As if throwing a cup of boiling hot tea over, Gao Xinyao said slowly.
"Don't be afraid of your sister laughing at you. My father once had a concubine who was disrespectful to my mother and wanted to destroy her face. My father beat her to death with a stick. Although she was also the daughter of a fifth-rank official, the rules are the rules. It is perfectly normal for the mistress to beat a lowly concubine to death with a stick."
Bai Qingyou's hand holding the tray trembled. Caning to death?
Could it be that Gao Xinyao is talking about her?
She didn't want to be beaten to death, so she put aside her previous thoughts and respectfully handed the teacup to Feng Jingshu: "Please have some tea, Princess."
Feng Jingshu didn't even raise her hand, she glanced at her lightly: "There's not even a hint of tea fragrance, have you really learned the art of tea art?"
The contempt in his eyes made Bai Qingyou feel ashamed.
She really hasn't learned it. She said that there is no tea fragrance even though it smells so good. Is her nose just a decoration?
He turned around and walked to Gao Xinyao: "Please have some tea, Concubine Gao."
Gao Xinyao picked up the teacup and pretended that she didn't hold it firmly, so the whole cup of tea spilled on her feet.
"How did you make the tea? Don't you know to wait until it's not too hot before serving it? You really have no manners at all."
"ah..."
The freshly boiled tea was very hot. No matter how thick her shoes were, they could not withstand a whole cup of boiling water.
She stepped back in pain and almost fell.
There were two cups on the tray, and the tea spilled out and flowed onto the hands, making the places burned by the charcoal fire even hotter.
"What a disrespect! You know how to boil it, but you still present it to your master. What's your intention?"
Gao Xinyao became more and more excited as she spoke. She stood up and pointed at her nose:
"You just want to burn us, don't you?"
"You dared to harm us when we got married, let alone now. You are really as vicious as a snake."
"Sister Princess, you must stand up for my sister today. It is really outrageous that a concubine can bully us."
Bai Qingyou was stunned. It was obviously them who bullied her.
If she endured it any longer, she would be a cuckold: "You...you are going too far!"
Gao Xinyao sneered contemptuously:
"Wait until you climb to the position of concubine before you have the right to blame me! It was you who went too far first!"
Bai Qingyou was very angry. She didn't know what she was thinking at the time. She got so angry that she secretly stabbed needles into their cushions. But she didn't regret it. This was what they deserved for taking her place.
She couldn't quarrel with him, but she couldn't hide away either.
Can't she just leave?
Turning around and preparing to leave, Chen Qingrui looked very unhappy: "Why, this concubine is not worthy of drinking the tea you made, or... do you look down on this concubine?"
Bai Qingyou was stunned. Chen Qingrui used to follow her around and flatter her, but now she dared to embarrass her.
"you..."
"Who gave you permission to yell at me? Someone, slap me in the face!"
She had originally been trying to please Bai Qingyou because of her status, and now her status was even higher than hers, yet she was still pricked in the knee by this bitch.
If she wasn't embarrassed, she wouldn't be Chen Qingrui.
The maid behind her slapped Bai Qingyou twice before she could react.
Bai Qingyou was hit and staggered, which showed how much strength the maid used.
Bai Qingyou's eyes were filled with tears, and she glared at Chen Qingrui with gritted teeth:
"You dare to hit me?"
"You ignored me, my concubine. Shouldn't I hit you?"
"You three teamed up to bully me. The Third Prince will not let you go."
"Really? Hong Nian, go and invite the Third Prince."
"What can I do for you?"
The voice came before the person arrived.
He came back from the palace and stopped by to see Feng Jingshu. His mother was right. Old Master Feng had retired, but he still had no more disciples than his grandfather, so he still needed to treat her well.
The families of the two concubines were both ruined, so they had to maintain good relations with the Feng family.
Bai Qingyou's tears flowed even more violently, but there was a hint of provocation in her eyes. Her backer had arrived.
"Your Highness, the prince's wife and concubines bullied me. Look at Qingyou's hands, they were burned."
The crying was so pitiful that the Third Prince was stunned by the unrecognizable pair of hands.
Although Bai Qingyou is a concubine, she is also the daughter of Prime Minister Bai.
How could this prince's wife be so ignorant of the general situation?
Even punishing her by making her copy the Women's Training Rules would be better than this.
Unconsciously, he looked at Feng Jingshu with a questioning look in his eyes:
"Jingshu, is that really the case?"
