Maid, Little Lucky Wife

Chapter 5 The Crown Prince’s Wife’s Reward

The winter in Beijing is very cold, the snow falls heavily, and there are not many birds in the sky.

As the New Year approaches, the Hou Mansion also begins to get busy, purchasing various ingredients and winter clothes.

The accounts of the shops under each house's name also need to be checked, and the Hou Mansion was a little more lively than usual.

The old lady is not a power grabber. After Mrs. Chu Hou was able to take over, she let all the affairs go out.

Compared with the busyness of the ladies in each room, the old lady's courtyard is a bit more relaxed and comfortable.

The faint fragrance spreads in the old lady's room, making people relax.

Yun Shang sat there and beat the old lady's legs, but she couldn't help but let her mind wander: although this incense has the effect of relaxing the mood, it is not as good as the incense in the space. If the incense in the space is taken out, it will probably be more popular.

The movements of his hands continued without any impact.

The room was very quiet, and the old lady was concentrating with her eyes closed.

The maids at the bottom lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes, moving very gently, for fear of disturbing the old lady's rest.

At this moment, Grandma Chang walked in quickly from outside.

There was snow on his cloak, and he was standing at the door a little further away, fearing that the cold air would come in.

Grandma Chang deliberately stepped lightly.

The old lady sitting on the top frowned slightly, slowly opened her eyes, and said in a gentle tone, "How is it? But she's giving birth?"

It was easy to hear the urgency in his tone, and he couldn't help but speed up his speech.

Aunt Chang's face was filled with joy, "Back to the old lady, she has given birth. Madam Shizi has given birth to a brother."

The old lady turned the beads for a moment, and then she relaxed. There was an heir to the Hou Mansion.

"Okay, I'll reward you all."

"Notice that all the servants in the house will have their monthly salary doubled this month, plus a portion of food."

Hearing this, the maids in the room felt happy and all knelt down.

"Congratulations old lady, congratulations old lady."

Yun Shang naturally knelt down, feeling relieved.

Now that the Hou Mansion has the eldest son, the future heirs will naturally get better and better. If the Hou Mansion is good, the servants like them will also be better off.

The Chinese New Year will be in one month, and it will be the Young Master’s Full Moon Wine, which will probably be even more lively.

There was a happy event in the Hou Mansion, and the whole house was full of joy. While it was lively, they were even more cautious, for fear of doing something wrong and getting into trouble.

The old lady gave many rewards, including a lot of supplements, medicinal materials and meals.

Today it was Yun Shang's turn to take up a position in front of the old lady, and the task of delivering things naturally fell to her.

The sun is shining brightly, which is a rare good weather. The snow on the ground is cleaned every day, just for fear that the snow water will stain the owner's clothes, shoes and socks.

Wearing a thick coat and skirt and carrying a shawl, Yun Shang held a box in her hand.

The box is engraved with peony patterns, and the carving is exquisite. It can be seen that it was made by a famous artist.

The cold wind blew on my face, bringing with it a slight itch. My face was slightly red, but the smile on my lips never fell.

There is a happy event in the house, and such a smile will make people feel good.

Unfortunately, the people walking towards him were not in such a good mood. Looking at the boxes held by a group of maids, their hands holding the handkerchiefs tightened, the jealousy in their eyes could almost turn into reality.

Yun Chang felt the blazing gaze, raised his eyes and saw the person coming, and felt blessed.

"My servant Yunshang has met Second Grandma!"

The little maids behind him didn't dare to neglect when they heard the sound.

"This slave has met Second Grandma."

Yes, it was the second lady who came.

The second lady snorted lightly and did not let anyone get up.

After a while, Yun Shang still bowed respectfully and saluted. The box in his hand was steady and polite.

Looking at the person who could find no fault at all, the second lady slowly raised her hand, "Get up, are you going to live in Madam Zi's room?"

Yun Shang stood up after hearing this, "In reply to Second Grandma, the old lady got a piece of jewelry today. I understand that it is not easy for the Crown Prince's wife to give birth, so I specially asked my slave to deliver it."

The second mistress unconsciously placed her eyes on the box in Yun Shang's hand, and she felt cold and dissatisfied.

After all, she is the crown prince’s wife, so she is favored over those of us who are daughters-in-law.

No matter how dissatisfied I feel, I can't help the old lady's face.

"You go ahead, don't keep the old lady waiting."

Yun Shang blessed her body again and hid aside.

The second mistress didn't look at the group anymore and left quickly.

After watching the people leave, Yun Shang said to the little maids behind her, "Let's go."

The pace was a little faster than before, and Yun Shang sighed inwardly.

I didn't meet anyone again all the way until I arrived at the courtyard of the Crown Prince's wife.

Seeing that the visitor was from the old lady's yard, the maid didn't dare to neglect him and quickly walked into the house to report.

After a while, the maid's figure appeared again and said to Yun Shang, "Sister Yun Shang, I want you to go in and talk."

Yun Shang politely thanked her, walked to the door of the room, and did not rush in. Instead, he took his time and felt that his body was no longer so cold before entering the room.

Entering the room, there is a living room. The Crown Prince's wife is in the back room. She has not yet given birth and cannot bear the cold.

In the middle of the room is Grandma Li and two little maids.

Although she didn't see anyone, Yun Chang still knelt down towards the back room and said, "My slave Yun Chang, please pay your respects to Madam Prince."

After a few seconds of silence, a voice came from the back room, which sounded gentle and tight.

"Sister Yun Shang is here, please get up, but what are your instructions from grandma?"

Yun Shang stood up gently, "The old lady sent her servant over to see if you and the young master are okay."

"Reply to my grandmother for me. Thanks to her, my brother and I are both doing well."

After greetings, Yun Shang picked up all the things he brought one by one.

The little maids didn't let them in. Yun Shang walked to the door one by one and brought them in.

There are a lot of things here, including some snacks from the palace last time, medicinal materials and supplements, and two fine silks.

Grandma Li looked at the pile of things and thanked her master.

After the task was completed, Yun Shang said goodbye without staying any longer and walked out of the room.

Grandma Li sent the person out and took out a bag of tips.

"Miss Yun Shang said a few kind words to the old lady on behalf of my wife. When the confinement period is over, my wife will definitely take her brother to the old lady's yard."

Yun Shang smiled and excused herself, then collected her bag and left.

Before they had gone far, a tall figure came into view.

The young man is handsome and unrestrained, and his brocade lining makes him look extraordinary.

Seeing Yun Shang, the prince was surprised and stepped forward quickly.

Yun Shang hurried to greet him.

"No need to be polite, sister Yunshang is here to see Madam?"

"Back to the prince, the old lady got some jewelry. I thought of the prince's wife and sent some things."

There was a smile in the prince's eyes, "Grandma loves me the most."

As he said that, he looked at the person in front of him who was still bowing his head. His mind wandered and he couldn't help but said, "Sister Yunshang, are you... happy with me?"

Hearing this, Yun Shang's body trembled for a while, and she spoke carefully in her heart. After all, her life was still in the hands of the Hou Mansion.

"The prince is joking. How can the noble body of the prince be imagined by someone like a slave who is an orphan and has the power to control his father and mother?"
