Chapter 244: Don’t Allow Your Own People to Be Bullied
"How are the clothes for Mid-Autumn Festival going?"
"I'll go to the embroidery room right away." San Ya took the order and left. Xi Que came forward to pour her tea.
Now, besides Daya and Sanya, the one that Lin Xiaomi uses most easily is Xi Que.
After a while, San Ya came back and reported: "The clothes for the prince have been finished, and yours, madam, will be finished tomorrow." Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, Lin Xiaomi understood and didn't ask anything.
They were there to serve Xiao Ran, so it was normal for them to treat Xiao Ran as their master and put his clothes first. Just like Daya and Sanya, they always put themselves first in everything.
"Tell me, what's wrong?"
Lin Xiaomi asked her when they were the only three in the room.
San Ya chattered like talking beans: "I just went to the embroidery room, except for Juhua and Hehua, everyone else was making clothes for the prince. In order not to delay you from wearing them, the two of them stayed up for several nights. I said what if Madam didn't have time to wear them, and Zhuqing mocked us, saying that we brought our own embroiderers, who are very capable, so how could they be late. Juhua and the others were so angry that their eyes turned red."
Lin Xiaomi was silent. "Privately ask Lotus and Chrysanthemum how they are doing in the embroidery room and whether anyone is bullying them."
She could accept their little selfishness, but she would never allow her own people to be bullied under her nose.
"Yes."
Mid-Autumn Festival feast.
Lin Xiaomi was wearing a pomegranate red, wide-sleeved top embroidered with pomegranate patterns in gold thread, a soft gauze skirt with flowing silver thread around her waist, a pair of embroidered shoes on her feet, and a flying bun on her hair with a jade ruyi inserted diagonally.
It looks neither glamorous nor vulgar, but noble and elegant.
"Madam, you are so beautiful in this outfit!" Daya praised sincerely.
Since their young lady married into the Marquis's mansion, she has been pampered and her temperament has improved a lot compared to when she was in the manor. Now she looks like a proper noble lady, no, her temperament is better than many ladies in the Marquis's mansion.
When Xiao Ran saw Lin Xiaomi's outfit, his eyes lit up. His wife looked between pure and charming today, and was particularly attractive. He felt a little hot.
"Are you dressed up?"
"Ah."
Lin Xiaomi looked up. Xiao Ran was wearing a dark green gown and a gold-embroidered belt that made him look tall and slender. He stood opposite her with a faint smile in his eyes.
She found that the embroidery and fineness of many of Xiao Ran's clothes were far superior to hers. Therefore, these people really didn't take her seriously and thought that they could just deal with her casually.
"let's go."
"The daughter-in-law pays respects to my parents and wishes them a happy Dragon Boat Festival!"
"But my daughter-in-law doesn't need to be so polite!"
"Mom, if there is anything that my wife doesn't do well later, please give her some advice."
"Don't worry. Today, our family is just here to enjoy the moon together. You can just sit next to me for a while." It was her daughter-in-law's first time attending a family dinner, so she had to guide her.
"Yes."
The party was held in the old man's yard. Not only was it convenient, he also liked the hustle and bustle.
After paying their respects to the old man, Xiao Zhen, Xiao Ran and other men all stayed, and Sun took Lin Xiaomi to the backyard.
In the yard, almost all the female relatives including aunt and cousin were present.
Seeing Sun come in, everyone immediately smiled and greeted her. Many of them had been to her yard some time ago, so they were naturally familiar with her.
But these people were extremely cold to her. After greeting them, they gathered in groups of three or four. The mother-in-law went to the kitchen to see how the food was being prepared. At this time, there were only maids around her, and it looked quite deserted.
Maybe she was too lazy to give them the recipe.
Daya and Sanya looked at her distressedly. Their young lady had a really hard time. If the master and the lady knew, they would definitely be heartbroken.
"No problem, let's just walk around."
The others had been keeping an eye on Lin Xiaomi. As soon as the woman came in, they were attracted by her red outfit. Her clothes, headdress, and necklace were all things they had never seen before. How many new clothes did this woman make and how many jewellery did she buy?
It's a pity that she is very stingy and they can't get any advantage at all.
Just now, everyone deliberately distanced themselves from her to let her have a taste of being ignored and see if she would still be so arrogant.
After trying to please her for several days, his mouth was as shut as if it was glued shut. He turned a deaf ear to their advances and always looked like he didn't care. Who was he trying to show off to?
Who does she think she is? If Sun Shi is not blind and stupid, she is not worthy of eating at the same table with them. What an ungrateful person, she really thinks she is insignificant.
When she can't stand their exclusion anymore, she will naturally try to please them and rush to give them benefits. Before, they were too impatient and thought wrongly. This peasant girl, what a lowly fate!
The old man loved flowers and plants. Although it was autumn, the yard was still full of flowers. She walked along the way, looking at everything. Well, she basically didn't recognize any of them. She was familiar with the vegetables, but she didn't recognize many of the flowers. She didn't know anything except whether they looked good or not.
"Madam, we used to plant a lot of flowers and plants on our farm. Master Han loves flowers and plants. Even if he doesn't come to live here, we still have to take good care of them. If someone comes, I'm afraid the master will be unhappy."
Since the new owner came, the flowers and plants in the yard have gradually been replaced by fruit trees, grape trellises and the like.
