After rebirth, the Prime Minister's wife married the living devil
Chapter 124 Wing Room
The little maid in green was startled and asked with concern: "What's wrong with Madam Li? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Lin Yanyu covered her mouth and nose, leaned back, and tried to hold back the urge to vomit. She said with difficulty, "I've been feeling sick lately. I don't know why, but I can't stand the scent of jasmine. Please take this away."
The maid cleverly picked up the jasmine tofu and stepped back a few steps to make sure that Lin Yanyu could not smell the jasmine scent before she smiled and asked.
"My wife doesn't know what the ladies like, so she has prepared several soups, including red dates and lotus seed soup, four-treasure sweet soup, red bean paste, mung bean paste, and a sour plum drink made from dried black plums and hawthorns. Which one would Madam Li like?"
"Plum drink."
Lin Yanyu blurted out the word subconsciously. Somehow, when she heard the word sour plum, her mouth began to drool. She was never greedy, but now she felt an urgent urge to drink a sip of the sweet and sour plum drink.
With a trace of nausea still lingering in her chest, Lin Yanyu picked up a crabapple from the plate of pink and green crabapples and put it in her mouth, chewing it carefully.
She didn't like these sour things before, but now she thought they were okay and finished half a plate without realizing it.
At the same time, his eyes were fixed on the stone path, longing for the bowl of black plum sour soup. The crabapples were almost finished when he finally waited for the maid to come and serve the sour soup.
The little maid holding the soup bowl was no longer the round-faced one from before. Instead, she had a pointed face, thin eyebrows and delicate features. She was not as smart and lovely as the round-faced maid.
When she put down the soup bowl, she accidentally dropped it on the table, and the dark reddish-brown juice spilled all over the table. Lin Yanyu couldn't dodge in time and her skirt was stained.
She was wearing plain white clothes today, with dark brown liquid hanging on them, which was extremely glaring and an eyesore.
The sharp-faced maid immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to admit her fault, "This servant deserves death, this servant deserves death! Please forgive me, Madam."
Lin Yanyu looked at the stains on her skirt and felt unhappy, but she saw that the maid was trembling with fear, her hair was disheveled, and because she kowtowed too hard, her forehead was covered with black sore, and she looked really pitiful.
"Never mind. I don't blame you."
At this time, a well-dressed old lady came over. Seeing the stains on Lin Yanyu's clothes, she immediately frowned and loudly scolded the kneeling maid.
"You are a blind and heartless slave. All the guests here today are honored guests. How can you be so careless and disrespectful? I will drag you outside the second gate, strip you of your clothes and beat you up. I will teach you what shamelessness is!"
The maid was so frightened that she burst into tears and kowtowed to the old lady: "Madam Wang, please spare me! Madam Wang, please spare me!"
Lin Yanyu frowned and felt a little uncomfortable. She couldn't help but said, "Mother Wang, it was an unintentional mistake. Let's just forget about it."
"Madam Li, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. It's all my fault for not being able to discipline you properly."
She turned her eyes to the stained patch of Lin Yanyu's silk skirt, "Madam Li is wearing plain clothes today. This patch is too eye-catching. Please follow me to the side room to change into clean clothes."
Lin Yanyu subconsciously wanted to refuse.
Madam Wang glanced at the seat above her, and said with a stern face, "If others see this, not only will Madam Li be embarrassed, but I'm afraid others will blame us for being ignorant of etiquette. Madam, please don't embarrass me."
Lin Yanyu knew that this was a warning to herself. She thought that changing into clean clothes would save both parties' faces, so she didn't take it seriously. She stood up and left the table with Mother Wang.
Stepping onto the stone path, passing through the splendid garden, and following the winding corridor, a row of side rooms appeared in front of her. Following the guidance of Mother Wang, Lin Yanyu stepped into the room.
At first glance, the room is simply and elegantly decorated. There is a carved sandalwood table at the entrance, and several paintings of ladies of Luo River are hung on the surrounding walls. On the left hand side, a wooden partition defines a world with a dark sandalwood bedstead placed on it. The sky-blue tent is hooked up by a small hook, and there is a large wooden cabinet against the wall on the inside.
Mother Wang hugged Lin Yanyu and entered the wooden door.
"In the closet are some new clothes that my wife made for Miss a few years ago. The colors are plain and Miss doesn't like them, but the material is excellent. My wife said to put them here for guests in case of emergency. If you ask me, my wife is still thoughtful. Now they are in use."
Mother Wang swiftly removed Lin Yanyu's jacket and said, "This sour plum drink stain is hard to wash. I'm afraid it will take a long time to wash out. It's a pity to use such a fine piece of fabric. Madam, please take off the stained clothes first, and I can give them to the maid to wash."
As he said this, he reached out to take off Lin Yanyu's skirt, but she blocked his way.
"Thank you for your kindness, Madam Wang. I'll take the clothes home to be washed. I won't bother you this time."
She reached out to take back the moon-white jacket, but unexpectedly, Mother Wang had put it behind her. She stared at her and insisted, "How can that be possible? Madam Li's clothes are stained. It's our fault for not being hospitable to her. How can we teach you to wash them yourself?"
Lin Yanyu was already extremely impatient. She didn't want to get entangled with this stout old woman and just wanted to drive her away quickly.
"Then please go out first, Mom. I need to change clothes. How can I change if you stand here?"
Seeing Lin Yanyu's stern face and obvious displeasure, Mother Wang hesitated for a moment, then quickly walked out of the room with the moon-white clothes.
At this time, Lin Yanyu had already sensed something was wrong. She hurried forward a few steps, frowned and shouted, "I really don't need you to wash my clothes. Madam Wang, please return my clothes to me."
Unexpectedly, the old lady seemed to be deaf and walked out of the room quickly.
At the moment the door was opened and closed, Lin Yanyu was so scared that she hid behind the wooden partition. She had a premonition in her heart, so she went to open the wooden cabinet, and saw that it was indeed empty. Where did the clothes come from?
She searched the room several times but couldn't find even a piece of cloth. She couldn't help feeling discouraged.
Even though Lin Yanyu had a calm personality, she still couldn't help but panic when faced with such a situation.
She lowered her head to look at her bare white arms, which were covered with pimples due to the coolness of the air. This coolness helped her panicked brain to slowly calm down.
Feeling a little relieved, Lin Yanyu hugged her arms and walked to the bunk bed, wrapped the soft mattress on the bed around herself, and moved to the door of the wing room.
She wanted to see if she could see a maid passing by and ask her to find the governor's wife, maybe she could escape from this predicament.
Just after twenty breaths, Lin Yanyu heard a sound coming. Before she could feel happy, she turned into panic.
There came a conversation between two men in the distance, and it sounded like two servants.
Lin Yanyu's heart was about to jump out of her mouth, and she hurriedly bolted the door of the compartment tightly.
"Isn't it appropriate to entertain those young men who are begging for money here?"
"How would I know? It was the young lady's wet nurse who came to inform her personally. How could this be false?"
"Madam is holding a flower-viewing banquet in the inner courtyard. Most of the guests are the wives of officials. We are so close to them. What if we bump into them?"
"How should I know? We are just servants. We just have to do what our superiors say. Come on, go to the kitchen and prepare the food for the feast."
Then there was the sound of footsteps gradually fading away.
Lin Yanyu: “!”
Sweat had already appeared on her forehead and her face was as pale as paper. She was like a headless fly flying around the room.
Just when I don’t know what to do…
