Chapter 297 - Loyalty
Following Sisters of Lotus out from Bai Ci Hui’s room, Zheng Bao Zhu frowned, looking extremely unhappy.
Sisters of Lotus walked in front and slowed down his footsteps as if he was waiting for her.
"Does Miss Jewel feel wronged?" When Zheng Bao Zhu walked over, her gaze landed on her slightly flushed face.
Zheng Bao Zhu did not place Sisters of Lotus in her eyes. In fact, to her, Sisters of Lotus was merely a servant by Bai Ci Hui’s side, she did not need to pretend to be nice to her. Furthermore, she was annoyed at the moment, so she naturally did not have a good face, "What do you mean by this? Why should I feel wronged? "
Even if she is truly wronged, she doesn’t need the sympathy of a servant like you.
Sisters of Lotus could see that Zheng Bao Zhu did not even put her in her eyes. Although she was unhappy, she suppressed it and laughed, "Miss Jewel doesn’t feel wronged at all. After all, this Su Family’s Eldest Young Madam is not something that an ordinary person can do. I believe that the Miss Jewel has an extraordinary bearing.
"Of course, Brother Chen Hao will be one of mine sooner or later." enjoyed what Sisters of Lotus said, the impatience on his face had receded quite a bit. Raising her head, she looked straight at Sisters of Lotus, "Sisters of Lotus, you are an old man by my side, you must have been here for a long time."
It’s been more than twenty years. When I met Madam, we were still very young, and Madam had just married into the Su Family not long ago. The Sisters of Lotus replied.
Hearing this, Zheng Bao Zhu blinked her eyes curiously, "You mean, you have been in the Su Family since young, all the way until now?"
Being a servant for over twenty years, one had to like this job a lot to be able to persevere.
Although being a servant was just a job, regardless of whether one was noble or lowly, this was a job done in someone else’s home. One had to look at their master’s face to know that.
And from what she knew, Bai Ci Hui wasn’t someone who was easy to get along with. She was actually able to stay by her side all these years, gaining her trust.
"What about your husband and children? You have been guarding Goodwill Auntie every day, don’t tell me they have no objections? " Zheng Bao Zhu asked again. Generally speaking, even if this job was really good, but no husband would want his wife to guard others twenty-four hours a day.
And Sisters of Lotus was now in charge of being Su Family’s butler. Everything that happened in Su Family was under her control, so how could she still have the time to take care of her family?
When Sisters of Lotus heard Zheng Bao Zhu, she covered her mouth and laughed, "Miss Jewel must be joking, I don’t have a husband."
"Wh ..." What? You have no husband? " Zheng Bao Zhu was startled, her eyes looked at Sisters of Lotus in surprise.
Although he was already in his forties, his life in the Su Family was not bad, especially when he was with Bai Ci Hui, the mistress. It could be considered appropriate to have him take care of.
She was born pretty, too. Although her eyes had been through many vicissitudes of life, they still had their charm. One could imagine that when she was young, she was also a beauty.
Such a person didn’t have a husband?
Could it be that she was really that determined to follow Bai Ci Hui, and never wanted to live her own life?
Sisters of Lotus saw the doubt and astonishment in Zheng Bao Zhu’s eyes and explained with a smile, "I was also married before, but my husband passed away a long time ago."
So that’s how it is, she said. It’s no longer the old society.
"I’m sorry, I seem to have mentioned your sorrows." Zheng Bao Zhu’s tone carried a trace of apology. She knew that if not for the fact that Sisters of Lotus was in deep love with her dead husband, she wouldn’t have gotten remarried.
So to say, the reason why she stayed by Bai Ci Hui’s side all these years, was not only because of her relationship with her master and servant, but also because she could not forget her deceased husband, and could not accept other men, so she could not start a new life. Instead, she simply chose to stay by Bai Ci Hui’s side, so with Bai Ci Hui’s protection, her later years would not be too miserable.
Sisters of Lotus only shook his head when he heard Zheng Bao Zhu’s apology, "It’s already been so many years, there’s nothing to worry about anymore."
Zheng Bao Zhu could not say anything else, and only deliberately raised her head to look in front of him. "Sisters of Lotus, where is my room? Is it in front? "
"Yes, Miss Jewel, follow me." The Sisters of Lotus said and continued to lead the way.
Walking past two rooms, Sisters of Lotus stopped in her tracks, turned around and said to Zheng Bao Zhu who was following closely behind him, "Miss Jewel, your room has arrived. You must be tired today, so rest early. "
After which, he pushed open the door.
Zheng Bao Zhu walked to the door and was about to go in, but then stopped and looked at Sisters of Lotus with a puzzled expression, "Oh yeah, Sisters of Lotus, what time does Brother Chen Hao usually wake up this morning?"
"Seven thirty." Sisters of Lotus replied.
"See you tomorrow, Sisters of Lotus." Zheng Bao Zhu said as she walked into the room and closed the door.
Sisters of Lotus looked at the closed door and revealed a strange smile.
After sending Zheng Bao Zhu back to her room, Sisters of Lotus turned around and returned to Bai Ci Hui’s bedroom.
Upon entering, he saw that Bai Ci Hui had already changed into pajamas and was sitting on the imperial concubine’s bed with her eyes closed.
"Madam, Miss Jewel has already sent it to her room."
Hearing that, Bai Ci Hui slowly opened her eyes, "What did she complain about?"
"She doesn’t complain, but I can see that she’s not in a good mood." The Sisters of Lotus answered honestly.
Bai Ci Hui sneered, "She’s also stupid, to actually attack the group of people directly. That little fellow is someone she can bully."
"Madam is right, especially when she’s in front of Luo Qing Yun and the young master. The Sisters of Lotus said, her tone paused for a moment, and then she said, "I see that it is a bit difficult for this Miss Jewel to have Eldest Young Master like her. You think that she can snatch the young master away from Luo Qing Yun, I doubt that’s possible. "
"I originally thought she was competitive, but today it seems ..." Bai Ci Hui shook his head in disappointment.
"Madam, since that’s the case, shouldn’t we ..."
"Don’t worry, although she can’t move Chen Hao’s heart, she’s still a good candidate to stay here and cause trouble for him." Bai Ci Hui said slowly.
After the Sisters of Lotus heard this, he lowered his head to think for half a second before suddenly saying, "Actually, I feel that a small Luo Qing Yun isn’t that hard to deal with."
Bai Ci Hui’s brows twitched, she suddenly looked at her, "You have a way?"
"Of course there’s a way, but ..." There was no other way. Now that the Miss Jewel is still here and she has so much confidence in herself, we should first give her a chance and let her try. Sisters of Lotus said.
Bai Ci Hui could vaguely guess what her so-called method was. As a result, her face slightly paled. Now that she heard Sisters of Lotus say this, her expression calmed down a little. "That’s right, what you said is true.
The master and servant chatted for a while longer before Sisters of Lotus went to sleep. Only then did he turn around and walked out of the room and returned to his own bedroom.
Early next morning, after Luo Qing Yun and Su Chen Hao woke up, they both came down the stairs at the same time.
The two of them had just walked into the living room, when they saw Zheng Bao Zhu walking out from the kitchen. Her face was brimming with a smile as she walked straight in front of Su Chen Hao.
Su Chen Hao looked at her, and only nodded lightly, as a form of greeting.
Zheng Bao Zhu could tell that the other party was indifferent, but she didn’t take it to heart. She took a step forward and leaned in a little, "Brother Chen Hao, I know that you like to eat Shu Fu Lei cake. I specially got up early today and made some for you.
With that, he intentionally glanced at Luo Qing Yun and magnanimously invited him: "Qingyun also come along."
"Then I won’t be polite." Luo Qing Yun smiled as he looked at her. Then, he reached out and grabbed Su Chen Hao’s arm, and the two of them walked towards the dining hall.
Zheng Bao Zhu looked at her hands that were wrapped around Su Chen Hao’s arm. She hated her so much that his teeth itched, but she didn’t reveal it at all.
The three of them went into the dining hall and sat down at their respective seats. A servant brought them breakfast, one of them being the Shuffleboard that Zheng Bao Zhu had prepared early in the morning with great effort.
"Brother Chen Hao, try and see if this cake tastes good or not." Zheng Bao Zhu was afraid that he would not eat it, so she urged him on.
Deep in her heart, she very much hoped to be able to obtain Su Chen Hao’s acknowledgement.
She knew there was an old saying in the country, "Grab a man’s stomach and you can hold a man’s heart."
