Chapter 3 Rules

What the couple said was unknown to outsiders, but for the next three or four days, Liu Qingqing treated Meng Jiao even more warmly.

Either he would send someone to bring him fashionable fabrics, or he would order someone to send him some restaurant's newly developed dishes.

With such goodwill, Meng Jiao's attitude towards this second mother gradually changed.

Three days later, the maid and mother-in-law assigned by the palace arrived.

Although they were just some servants, they were rewarded by the emperor after all.

According to the rules, the Meng family should open the middle door and kneel down to thank the saints, but the emperor treated Meng Jiao favorably, and Aiwujiwu spared the Meng family the ceremony of paying homage.

"Slave Cuixiu was personally selected by the Imperial Concubine to serve the Madam. This Aunt Lin is the Imperial Concubine's nanny. The Imperial Concubine said that it would be safe to have an old nanny by your side, so she pointed to Nanny Lin.

The rest of them are all palace servants who have served the ladies of various palaces. According to the instructions of the imperial concubine, they all followed Cui Zi, Cui Lian, Cui Jin, Delphinium and Cui Yue."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration. Actually, we don't need so many people."

Meng Jiao looked at so many maids and women, and felt a little defensive instinctively. She was really not used to having so many people around her, especially some unfamiliar people.

"The Imperial Concubine knows that Madam does not like to be served by many people. However, Madam, you are not the Miss Meng family with no official title. You are one of the few third-grade imperial concubines in our Daqi. If there are no decent people around you to serve you,

It is really unseemly. If you were not too young, the imperial concubine would have given you an independent palace."

From Cuixiu's words, Meng Jiao truly understood what was different about her, Mrs. Gaoming.

A lady of the third rank is truly a noble and official person.

If Da Qi hadn't attached great importance to filial piety, Master Meng, an official of the fourth rank, would have paid homage to Meng Jiao when he saw her.

If she hadn't been really young, it would have been impossible for the Meng family to take Mrs. Gaoming home.

"Now that the imperial concubine has given instructions, I will understand."

After finally settling down the people from the palace, Meng Yuan also left school and was led by Liu Qingqing to the courtyard.

Unexpectedly, before he could enter the main hall, he was stopped by Cuiwei and Delphinium standing at the door.

"No trespassing is allowed where Madam is!"

"Two girls, I am the second mother-in-law of our eldest lady, and this is her younger sister. The girl doesn't know something, but her younger sister has been living with her these days. Since she is not out of school, I will send her here.

Already."

Liu Qingqing was stopped outside, and Meng Jiao could naturally hear it inside. She wanted to get up and come out to rescue, but was stopped by Cui Xiu.

Nanny Lin also stepped forward and stood in front of Meng Jiao with her head bowed. Meng Jiao was quite puzzled as to why these two people were stopping her.

"Madam, you are first of all Da Qi's third-grade imperial concubine, and then secondly the first lady of the Meng family. No matter which one of these two identities, you are higher than her mere second-in-law aunt. According to the rules, if she wants to see you, she must

She is waiting for your summons outside, instead of relying on your respect for her and being disrespectful."

After Cuixiu said this, Granny Lin walked out.

Liu Qingqing was still arguing with Delphinium and Delphinium. Delphinium told her clearly that it was against the rules, but Liu Qingqing didn't take it seriously.

When she heard the footsteps coming from the inner room, she naturally thought that it was Meng Jiao who came out to rescue her, but she didn't expect that it was the nun who came out of the palace.

"Mother Lin, the two slaves followed the rules and stopped the second lady who wanted to enter without permission. Unexpectedly, she didn't take it seriously. Instead, she insinuated that the two slaves were acting on behalf of others and were arrogant just by coming out of the palace."

"You've done a good job! This second lady, sitting in this room, is not just the direct daughter of the Meng family, she is the savior recognized by the emperor himself, one of the few third-grade imperial concubines of Da Qi. If an ordinary mistress is

If you want to see Mrs. Gaoming, you must stand outside and wait for the summons. The second lady is just a concubine. If you want to see Mrs. Gaoming, you must kneel outside and wait for the summons. This is the national law of Daqi. The second lady

If you don’t take it seriously, does that mean you don’t take Daqi’s national law seriously?”

Liu Qingqing was speechless. In fact, it was not that she didn't know Meng Jiao's noble status, but she just wanted to rely on Meng Jiao's closeness to her to slowly obscure this noble status.

She wanted Meng Jiao to respect her unknowingly, thereby achieving the goal of slowly controlling Meng Jiao.

Unexpectedly, all the people who serve in the palace are tough and have no regard for human feelings at all.

"I don't dare. I'm just with the big one... I was very happy getting along with my wife. I forgot about the difference between superiority and inferiority for a moment. Thank you for your advice, mama. I also apologized to the two girls."

Able to bend and stretch, and able to advance and retreat in a measured manner, Nanny Lin looked at the second wife of the Meng family with an incomprehensible expression, feeling that this person was not a simple person.

If the imperial concubine hadn't sent a few of them here immediately, it would have been difficult for Madam Gaoming to establish her authority here.

"Second Madam, you're polite. This servant is just doing things according to the rules. The Imperial Concubine likes Madam, so the servants naturally respect Madam. Since Second Madam is not here to pay a visit to Madam, you can send this young lady off and leave.

The slave will take this young lady in to meet the madam."

"In that case, I'd like to ask Auntie to resign first."

Liu Qingqing turned and left. Nanny Lin walked down the steps and walked into the inner room with Meng Yuan, who was frightened by the dispute.

Seeing her sister sitting in the seat, Meng Yuan came back to her senses, hurriedly ran to Meng Jiao and shrank.

The latter hugged the little girl who was running towards me with some distress, and slowly caressed her back.

In fact, it was against the rules for Meng Jiao, a royal wife, to be so close to a concubine from a small official family.

Cuixiu wanted to stand up and give a warning, but just as she was about to make a move, she was silently stopped by Granny Lin.

The latter shook his head and quietly exited the inner room with his green sleeves.

"Mommy, my wife is a third-grade imperial concubine. To treat a concubine so intimately is to lower her status and it is against the rules."

"Besides the rules, there are also human feelings. The madam is still young, and the girl can't be too tight because of the rules. I don't think the second madam is a simple person, so I gave her a little shock. But this second young lady, obviously and

Madam is very close to her. Madam has been away from home for thirteen years without anyone close to her. It may not be a good thing to have such a sister by her side."

After saying this, Cuixiu finally understood. He raised his hand to greet Cuixi and Delphinium who were standing at the door, and they all retreated further away together.

He would neither fail to hear Meng Jiao's instructions nor disturb the whispers between the sisters.

However, Liu Qingqing had a gloomy look on her face when she left the yard where Meng Jiao was, and when she returned to the yard, she closed the door and smashed a lot of things.

After hearing the news, Grandma Li hurried over to serve her, but as soon as she entered the door, she was almost hit by a ceramic bottle flying towards her.
