Volume 1: The Palace Maiden's Career Chapter 23 The Unexpected Incident
"Yingluo, are you... fat?"
Not only the empresses have to tailor their clothes, but the palace maids also have to tailor their clothes. Especially the newly entered the palace, the little palace maids are at their age, and some of them have become shorter after a few months.
If you rely on the mountains to eat and rely on the water to eat, the embroidery shop will never treat your family badly. So when it comes to tailoring the palace maids, Wei Yingluo and others are the first to focus on them.
Just rolled the soft ruler to Wei Yingluo's waist, and Madam Zhang frowned: "Your waist is an inch thick, what have you eaten and drunk recently."
Wei Yingluo remained silent, but Jixiang beside her was worried about her.
"No," Jixiang said, "Sister Yingluo vomited whatever she eats recently. She hasn't had a good meal in several days!"
Madam Zhang glared at her fiercely, thinking she was talking nonsense, then turned around and sighed to Wei Yingluo: "You are wearing this outfit now. Before you make new clothes, you can go to the warehouse to choose a suitable old clothes and deal with it for a while."
"Madam Xie." Wei Yingluo said with some shame. While the others continued to measure the size, she went into the warehouse alone.
There are new cloth and new clothes piled up in the warehouse, and old cloth and old clothes. Things are unpredictable in the world, and good fortune are still there. Sometimes, the new clothes are just done, but people are gone. Sometimes, in just a few months, the most popular colors are no longer popular. So these clothes, the new fabrics are put on the shelves and have been ignored for a long time. The colors are dim, mold spots gradually grow, getting broken, and getting old... Until the end, they will never be worn again.
Just like an old woman in the harem.
Wei Yingluo passed by a shelf where clothes were placed, and finally picked out a calmly colored stone-green clothes. She looked around for a while. Seeing that there was no one around, she took off her clothes to try on the stone-green old clothes in her hand.
Apart from the outer garment, there is a close-fitting inner garment inside.
It is hard to cover up her slightly bulging belly.
And all this did not escape the beautiful eyes that followed.
When the news reached Aunt Fang's ears, she slapped the table and smiled and said, "Okay! This is what a real person is getting stolen. I'll go and invite General Manager Wu now!"
Jinxiu added jealousy and said, "By the way, call Madam Zhang, and let her see with her own eyes what kind of person this proud disciple is!"
"You're right, you have to call that old guy together to see if she dares to be proud in front of me in the future!"
Aunt Fang sneered, and then couldn't wait to find General Manager Wu.
This matter is quite serious. Wu Shulai immediately left the matter at hand and rushed to the palace maids' office.
"Wei Yingluo!" He stared at the girl in front of him, "Someone reported that you had done something ugly, have you pleaded guilty?"
Wei Yingluo was wearing the stone-green clothes she had just changed into, and she looked more and more calm. She first respectfully brought blessings to Wu Shu, and then calmly said: "Dare you ask me, what kind of scandal is it? Who will tell me?"
"It's me!" Aunt Fang came out from the crowd, her eyes like a knife, and cut them into her body one by one, "Say you, you have sex with the guards and become a traitor, and the beaded fetus is secretly knotted!"
Wei Yingluo sighed: "Aunt, I have never offended you. Why do you use such unreasonable fabrication to harm me?"
"Is it a fabrication for no reason? You can tell it once you check it out!" Aunt Fang said to Wu Shu, "Master Wu, please ask an experienced nanny to check her, and the truth will be revealed!"
Seeing her look of confidence and fearlessness, Wu Shulai couldn't help but frown.
Based on his understanding of the aunt, if this person is not sure, he will not dare to attack in public like this. Could it be that Wei Yingluo, as she said...
Wu Shulai didn't want to make the matter worse, Wei Yingluo's face was lost, and he, the eunuch who was in charge of the palace maid, would also suffer a loss of reputation, so he advised with a little bit: "Wei Yingluo, if you really do it, just confess it honestly, so as not to check it out, and it will be even more embarrassing."
"You are filthy and chaotic, and you are beaten to death by a mess. Yingluo cherishes her life. How dare you do such a thing?" Wei Yingluo glanced at Aunt Fang indifferently, "Just Aunt Fang said, invite an experienced nanny to come and let the truth be revealed!"
Wu Shulai was confused by the two of them. Aunt Fang looked like she was holding the handle in her hand, intending to kill others, but Wei Yingluo also looked as if she was upright and not afraid of the shadows. This...
"Okay." Wu Shulai had no choice but to say, "Come, come and invite Madam Yan!"
Madam Yan is a stable woman.
According to herself, she has gone through two generations of emperors and delivered three princesses and four princes. No one knows whether what she said is true or is bragging.
Wu Shulai not only used face but also paid some money.
Otherwise, I won't be able to touch this boss.
But for Wu Shu, the expenses are worth it, because this matter has become quite big. You must find a nanny who is recognized by both status and technology to deal with it in order to make people convinced.
Of course, it would be best if she could make this matter small and small for the sake of money...
Aunt Fang saw his thoughts and sneered: "Madam Yan, there are so many eyes and so many mouths here, you have to check it carefully. Otherwise, in a few days, this little bitch will give birth to a ten-month-old baby, and your golden sign will be smashed."
"Master Wu." Wei Yingluo glanced at her, then looked back at Wu Shu and said, "Although I am a palace maid, I am all the girls of good people. My innocent reputation has been defiled. If someone else has to die, I will be forced to death! The person who complained is clearly to force me to death. I dare to ask, if I prove that I am not guilty in the end, what should the person who complained will deal with it?"
"There are rules in the palace in the palace. Those who are filthy in the palace will be beaten to death by sticks. They are empty-mouthed and falsely accusing others. They will expel them from the Forbidden City with sticks! Well, everything depends on the results of this inspection!" Wu Shulai waved his hand, "Madam Yan, let's start!"
"Girl, come with me." Madam Yan led Wei Yingluo to the small room prepared in advance.
The doors and windows were sealed tightly, and there was no sound. The people outside didn't know what was happening inside. They just felt that life was like years. Jixiang was walking back and forth while she was still in the same place. Madam Zhang's eyes were once again casting into the door, and Aunt Fang's right toe impatiently slapped the ground.
Until a creaking sound, the door was opened again.
Madam Yan wiped her hands with a wet veil and stepped out across the threshold.
"How is it?" Aunt Fang walked up to him, "What's the result? Is her belly big?"
Madam Yan was stunned: "It's so big..."
"Did you hear it? Have you all heard it?" Aunt Fang was overjoyed and turned around to Wu Shulai, shouted to Madam Zhang, and everyone standing in the inner courtyard, "Wei Yingluo has a big belly!"
"Enough!" Wu Shulai roared, "What kind of decent things is it? What kind of decent things are it? Come and pull them apart!"
In the end, the eunuchs he brought came forward and pulled the two of them away, but they refused to live in peace. They kept kicking each other and cried and begging for mercy to Wu Shu.
Wu Shulai was frustrated by the two of them, and his eyes were turned to Wei Yingluo and said slowly: "Wei Yingluo, you are the victim, what do you say?"
What Wu Shu said about this meant was to transfer the decision to Wei Yingluo?
Aunt Fang and Jinxiu looked at each other and changed their partner to beg for mercy, crying at Wei Yingluo with one word and one word.
Aunt Fang: "Yingluo! Yingluo! I was wrong, I was really wrong! It's because I was not authentic, it's because I was too harsh, it's because I made mistakes, it's because I made mistakes, it's because I made mistakes, forgive me! From now on, I will never pick on you again. This is all Jinxiu's fault. It's because she is sowing discord. You are a good girl, it's all her bad!"
Jinxiu: "Yingluo, don't believe her words. She wants to ask you for forgiveness! We entered the palace together. Do you know that I am timid and dare to plan such a big thing alone? It's her that she is the mastermind behind the scenes. I just had no choice but to listen to her words!"
Wei Yingluo turned a blind eye to the two of them, and then again took Wu Shulai Fu, with a calm tone: "People's words are terrible. If it weren't for Mr. Wu, you were fair, I believe Yingluo would have to prove her innocence. Now the matter has been revealed. Please let Mr. Wu handle it impartially."
"Oh?" Wu Shulai laughed, "Even if I let them go, you won't feel resentful?"
The eyes of Aunt Fang and Jinxiu immediately burst out with a warm light. The eyes of Wei Yingluo looking at Wei Yingluo are full of anxiety and begging, but Wei Yingluo shook her head gently and replied, "Don't complain."
Wu Shulai smiled with satisfaction: "Although you don't blame me... I can't really let them go like that! Fang Nizi!"
"Here, I'm here, I'm here." Aunt Fang, who was named by him, hurriedly knelt down.
"You have falsely accused others of their verbal karma and were expelled from the palace with a stick of forty, and then your eyes moved from her suddenly paralyzed on the ground to the trembling Jinxiu. "The palace maid Jinxiu is jealous of her colleagues and provoked disagreement. She was punished by twenty, and was punished by Xinzheku."
The two immediately cried and screamed.
Aunt Fang: "No! Mr. Wu, I know I'm wrong! I really know I'm wrong! Mr. Wu! Mr. Wu!"
Jinxiu: "It's not my fault. It's all caused by Aunt Fang. It's really nothing to do with me!"
Wu Shulai really didn't want to hear the voices of the two of them again, so he waved his hand, and the eunuchs worked hard together to drag the two of them down.
"Where is the palace, I dare to talk nonsense. If anyone stirs up the wind and rain, they will be in trouble, and they will end up!" Wu Shulai looked around, and everyone lowered their heads wherever they looked. Until they looked at Wei Yingluo, their eyes became gentler. "If you want to learn, learn more about Wei Yingluo. This is a good example that you deserve to learn."
He might just say it casually, but so what?
As soon as he left, everyone raised their heads again and looked at Wei Yingluo with different eyes.
Aunt Fang is gone in the palace maids' office.
Now, what Mr. Wu said is what he said.
