After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

Chapter 174 A Visitor from Qiao's Residence

Looking at these foods that were obviously carefully prepared, most of which were his favorites, Qi You's eyes felt a little warm.

"Son, come here and sit down to eat." Qiao Rongjin greeted his son when he saw him.

"it is good."

Qi You did not sit down directly, but walked to his mother, grabbed her wide sleeves and said, "Mom, thank you." He had never felt so happy. The days with his mother by his side were always particularly satisfying.

It was rare for Qiao Rongjin to see such a sentimental son. She reached out and rubbed his little head, then hugged him into her arms and said, "You are my son, the apple of my eye. Let's not say such unorthodox words." After she finished speaking, she pulled the man out of her arms.

"Mom is hungry, let's eat quickly. There will be better food in the evening." Qiao Rongjin revealed a little with a smile.

Hearing this, Qi You smiled happily, "Yeah, okay, then mom, eat more."

The mother and son had this meal together alone. The atmosphere was simple and warm.

Aunt Wu and others on the side had already eaten and were waiting now, waiting to serve their masters until they finished eating so that they could clean up.

Aunt Wu looked at the mother and son who were getting along naturally and happily, and her eyes were full of smiles.

Such a master and such an atmosphere were what she liked the most. When she first heard that she was going to come here, she was actually a little nervous. After all, if she met a difficult master, her life would certainly not be easy. It would be better to stay in the palace. At least, with her connections in the palace, it would be easy for her to live a good life. Although it was His Royal Highness Prince Rui's request, if she insisted on not going, His Royal Highness Prince Rui would certainly not force her. However, after asking someone to find out who the person she was going to serve was and what his character was like, she still came.

Having wasted most of her life in the palace and rarely leaving, she wanted to see an environment that was different from the palace and change her mood.

Sure enough, her old sister did not lie. In fact, what she knew was too superficial. The new master was a very nice person, not a nosy person, and treated servants like the best. Specifically, if there was anything delicious or fun, they would have a share. Most importantly, there were almost no dirty things, the atmosphere was good, and the two masters were extremely harmonious.

She had never seen a mother and son get along so well.

In addition, after her observations over this period of time, she found that neither of the two masters were soft-hearted, and the prince was different from the rumors outside. In her opinion, the prince obviously cared about the master and his son, but the master didn't care about the prince at all. As an old woman, she was somewhat moved by everything His Royal Highness Prince Rui did, but she observed that the master didn't seem to care.

However, this is also good. After all, there are many people who turn hatred from love. If people don't get emotional, they will be rational enough. This is not only applicable in the palace, which is a big melting pot, but also in this palace.

In short, since coming to Yunshen Pavilion, Aunt Wu has been very happy. The treatment is good, the work is short, and the master is good. There is no place more suitable for retirement than here.

"Madame Wu, you don't need to serve here. It's cold. Go and warm yourself by the fire. After you finish eating, you can ask the maid to clean up." Qiao Rongjin said hurriedly when she saw Madame Wu standing there.

She couldn't be more satisfied with Madam Wu. After her training over the past few days, no one could find any etiquette mistakes in the maids of Yunshen Pavilion when they went out. She had also learned from them for two days before, and she felt that she could hold her own when she went out.

Hearing this, Fifth Madam smiled and bowed, "Yes, Master."

After being here for so long, Aunt Wu also understood the master's temperament. Generally speaking, when he said something, he really meant it. In Yunshen Pavilion, servants were not required to serve the food, so she went to the servants' room to warm herself by the fire.

After lunch, Qi You went to take a nap.

Qiao Rongjin did not take a nap today, because he received news from the Qiao Mansion yesterday that someone from the mansion would come to celebrate Qi You's birthday today, so they should have arrived by now.

Sure enough, just when Qiao Rongjin was thinking about this, the maid who had been waiting at the gate of the palace came and knocked on the door.

Qinglian heard the sound and walked over.

"Sister Qinglian, the old lady of the Qiao Mansion has come with her family, and now Sister Ziyun is leading people to Yunshen Pavilion." She ran back to inform first.

"Okay, I understand, let's go down."

"Yes." After saying that, the little maid went out.

Qiao Rongjin was reading a storybook in the room. When he heard the noise, he guessed that someone from the Qiao residence must have arrived. He quickly put the geography book aside and asked, "Qinglian, are my mother and the others here?"

Qinglian entered the house and closed the door, then said with a smile, "Yes, Master. They said they have already led them to our yard. They should be here soon."

Hearing this, Qiao Rongjin smiled more.

Ever since he went back to the Qiao Mansion once, his contacts with his mother's family have become closer. You'er would occasionally go to the Qiao Mansion to stay for two days. Now he has a very good relationship with the younger generations in the Qiao Mansion. This time, it was Qi You himself who talked about his birthday with the younger ones.

Today is his son's birthday, and Qiao Rongjin has specially greeted the princess and the prince, and informed them that someone from the Qiao family will be coming to the mansion.

Palace Garden.

Qiao's mother, her two daughters-in-law and several grandchildren followed Ziyun slowly. The road was slippery due to the snow, so they walked relatively slowly.

A few little ones walked behind, not saying a word along the way, but just staring at everything in Prince Rui's Mansion with eyes wide open, their eyes full of curiosity, this was their first time in Prince Rui's Mansion.

I have to say, it is quite big and you can't see the end at a glance.

Mother Qiao was supported by her two daughters-in-law, and the three of them were silently looking around the house.

Because of the heavy snow, everything looked covered in white at a glance, but the general environment and scenery were still clearly visible.

Along the way, the group met many servants. Facing their stares, the group did not seem to notice anything and just followed the well-mannered maid in front of them.

However, as they watched the road become more and more remote and the number of servants dwindled, Qiao's mother and her group could no longer hold back their anger.

The second daughter-in-law Liu and the third daughter-in-law Murong looked at each other with a trace of heartache in their eyes. They had not expected that their sister-in-law would live in such a remote location in the palace, and they immediately had even less good feelings towards the owner of the palace, Prince Rui.

Mother Qiao suppressed her inner discomfort and her eyes almost turned red.

Her daughter, when she was in the palace, always lived in the best place, and used things that were more precious than those of her two brothers. But she never expected that after coming to this palace, the place she lived in was so inferior and could not be compared with the palace at all.

Especially the older ones, who have already understood many things, are in a very heavy mood. They believe that their aunt must not be having a good time in the palace.

The three youngest children didn't understand anything, but they could sense that the atmosphere was unusual because their older brothers stopped smiling and looked very serious. So, they behaved themselves and no longer had any interest in looking at the scenery.
