Su Qian sneered inwardly, haha, his expression is quite diverse.
On the one hand, he looked down on her for what she did, but on the other hand, he wanted to take action against her to give himself a chance to stand out.
If he really wanted to seize the opportunity, he should have at least hidden his tail first. With such a blatantly sarcastic look, did he think she was a fool? Could he be easily fooled by her?
Su Qianli ignored her. Since this woman didn't care about her, there was no need for her to give her any face. Who did she really think she was?
The young woman's expression turned cold on the spot. She had always heard that the goddess had a good wife and was kind to her servants.
Even when the magistrate's wife deliberately told her the wrong time and asked the maid to take her to the banquet late, causing the goddess to lose face, the goddess never blamed the maid, nor did she take her anger out on her or punish her afterwards.
That's why she dared to say this today. She didn't expect that the goddess would not give her face in public and make her lose face.
Leng Yu saw out of the corner of her eye that other people were looking at her with strange expressions, and she instantly felt completely ashamed.
When she looked up again, she saw Cuiwei glaring at her with angry eyes, and she couldn't help but lower her head guiltily.
Cuiwei knew that her daughter had a good temper, but she couldn't help but consider Su Qian.
Seeing that the young cook was restless and showed little respect for Su Qian, she acted like a goddess's personal maid and lectured them in a domineering manner, "Don't blame me for not reminding you. I'm not a maid in your Tongpan Mansion, so naturally I'm not afraid of you."
"Also, the Tongpan Mansion is no longer the same as it once was. Stop showing off your power under my nose. If anyone acts dishonestly, doesn't do their duty, or is disrespectful to the goddess, I will report them all to His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan and have them expelled. You will see to it what happens to them!"
Mother Liang was immediately terrified and said in a fearful tone, "Miss Cuiwei, we are all very honest people and would never do such a thing. Please rest assured, Miss."
Cuiwei: "I just like to put things in front of others. After all... who knows, there might be some people who are so bold as to do such a thing."
She paused and continued, "Mother Liang is very experienced. She must have worked in the Tongpan Mansion for many years."
Mother Liang said timidly, "Yes."
"Mother Liang, you don't know, but when I was working for the prefect, a young woman in the kitchen was so bold that she actually tried to seduce General Lu Huan..."
"Everyone in Zhiyi City knows that General Lu Huan is handsome and averse to women. Therefore, some daring little girls have tried to seduce General Lu Huan. Who knew that the young cook would anger General Lu Huan so much that he chopped off her head with a single blow."
"Before she died, she flirted with the other cooks, saying they had instigated her to seduce the general. This had offended the general, and the general had sent them all away."
Cuiwei pretended to smile gently, but in reality she was warning them, "Mother Liang, that was around the time when His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan was attacking the city. Tell me... if we leave the prefect, wouldn't that mean death?"
When she said the last sentence, Cuiwei almost said it with gritted teeth.
Mother Liang's face turned pale. "I understand. I will definitely take good care of my subordinates."
Cuiwei waved her hand and said, "Alright, those who need to work should go back to their work. Don't hang around here and disturb the goddess."
"yes."
…
Mother Liang grabbed Leng Yu's embroidered robe and dragged her behind the rockery. She warned her in a cold tone, "Leng Yu, if you want to die, you can just hit your head against the rockery and die! Why bother to implicate us all?!"
"You think that just because you're pretty, His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan will be attracted to you? Don't forget the lesson of the two Jiang family girls!"
"In terms of looks, family background and vision, you are no match for the young lady from the Jiang family. His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan doesn't even look down on the two young ladies, so how could he look down on you? Aren't you overly proud of yourself?"
Leng Yu lowered her head silently. Seeing her body trembling slightly, Mother Liang couldn't help but lower her voice, "Everyone knows now that His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan cares most about Her Royal Highness the Goddess. If you are smart, you will know that you shouldn't stand out at this time!
The two girls of the Jiang family, their father used to be a judge, and now he can have a say in front of Prince Yan. Even so, Prince Yan still doesn't like his daughters. Why do you think you can be favored by His Highness Prince Yan?
Taking a step back, who do you think is more ruthless, Lu Huan or His Royal Highness Prince Yan?
Leng Yu looked up in a daze, not quite understanding what she meant. Mother Liang continued, "They are both warriors who have fought on the battlefield for hundreds of times and are decisive in killing. But Lu Huan still couldn't defeat His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan. What does this mean?
This shows that His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan is not a good person! Moreover, if he was a man who was impatient, he would have had many wives and concubines long ago, but he chose not to have any concubines and never married. What do you think he is doing this for? Could it be that he is trying to curry your favor today?"
"Men like them have broad horizons. Only women of noble status can catch their eye. You must remember your status."
In their opinion, although Su Qian was not the daughter of a wealthy family or the daughter of an official, the title of "goddess" was given to her by Yan Xuanye.
He is now the king of Zhiyi City, so whatever he says is what it is, and no one else can say a word about it.
Leng Yu nodded, "Leng Yu understands, thank you, Mother Liang, for your guidance."
The black-bone chicken that Su Qian asked them to prepare had its hair plucked and its internal organs removed. Su Qian cleaned the black-bone chicken again, placed it in a large pot of cold water, and added cooking wine and green onions, ginger, garlic and other things to remove the fishy smell.
