PFC Chapter 12 Reward
Chapter 12 Reward
A pair of white jade bracelets! Miss Xie made a bowl of fig and almond soup and was rewarded with a pair of white jade bracelets for free.
Green Tea is really worried about her master. She does nothing but eat and never thinks of doing anything to please the prince!
Lin Yan, who was very cautious, found a business opportunity in Zhao Yuan's words. Since the 30 taels of silver were not going to be returned, it would be better to find another way.
Rather than going against him and risking losing your life at any time, it is better to use his wealth to make some money and make a living.
How could you forget that you are knowledgeable and experienced? You can make a fortune by just bringing any modern item here.
Thinking of this, Lin Yan laughed foolishly, which made Green Tea stunned.
Zhiye had no choice but to replace the green tea and pour Lin Yan a bowl of fig and almond soup.
Lin Yan drank it all up without hesitation. The recipe of pearl milk tea immediately popped into her mind.
———Brown sugar, tapioca starch, and water are all easily available ingredients, suitable for all ages, and you’ll want to drink it again and again. It’s absolutely unique!
Her identity was somewhat awkward, and it was difficult for her to even leave the palace gate - how could she obtain Zhao Yuan's permission?
——How can we prevent the money we earn from being stolen by him and put into his pocket?
After thinking hard, he still couldn't come up with any good ideas. His brows were furrowed and he sighed continuously, which made the green tea waiter at the side at a loss. What happened to his master? He smiled and was worried at the same time. Was he sick? He was not going to die suddenly again!
Zhao Yuan couldn't understand this woman any more. In just a short while, the expression on her face changed several times. Her brows wrinkled and stretched, stretched and wrinkled again, like a folding fan.
Suddenly, he remembered that he seemed to have gone too far today. He ordered Zhiye, "You also go find Zhai Zongguan and ask him to give you the box of pearls that was tributed last time, so that your master can play with it."
A box of pearls! Zhiye was just as worried about his master as Green Tea, but now he immediately became excited.
But his master just stood there motionless? He was so anxious that he had to kneel down first, kowtowed excitedly and thanked him: "Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty."
Zhao Yuan waved his hands, thinking that the people in this room were really interesting! The maid was smarter than the master. The master always seemed to be half a beat slower than the maid.
Lin Yan hadn't reacted yet, and only realized she should say thank you when Zhiye kowtowed to express his gratitude.
He bowed to Zhao Yuan with a polite gesture. He had something to say but didn't dare to ask it out loud.
Zhao Yuan nodded with satisfaction. He finally came to his senses. This young man is teachable!
Manager Zhai named Zizhuang came out of the storeroom and handed Zhiye a lacquered wooden box carved with peony branches.
"Here, this is good stuff!"
Others may not know, but he knows it very well. This is a box of tribute from a foreigner. It is something that even ordinary rich people cannot buy.
This box of pearls has a charming white tone, almost close to silver. They are much larger than ordinary pearls, and their smoothness and roundness are exceptionally good. The only drawback is that there are too few of them to make a necklace.
It was more than enough to make a headdress and a bracelet, but the prince actually gave it to Master Lin instead of leaving it for the future princess.
It was already very unusual for the prince to carry Master Lin back to the courtyard. It seemed that he would have to curry favor with Master Lin in the future. Even if a new princess entered the mansion soon, Master Lin would still be the most favored one.
The most important thing is that we don’t know whether the new princess can survive for three months. But it’s different for Master Lin. As long as she can survive for these three months, she will basically be considered half the mistress of the palace.
Zhiye held it carefully and said with a smile, "Thank you, Eunuch Zhai." He then hurriedly took out a purse from his sleeve and stuffed it into Zhai Zizhuang's hand.
"This is the money our master gave you to buy wine."
Zhai Zizhuang narrowed his eyes and smiled, nodding with satisfaction. She was a good maid. Master Lin should be good to servants like them. She had a bright future! I hope she can live a long life!
After taking a look at Zhiye's departing back, Zhai Zizhuang put on a stern face again, telling him to keep strangers away, and went towards Miss Xie's residence with his things.
Miss Xie was a little confused by the sudden reward. She reached out to take it and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Chief Steward Zhai, why did the prince suddenly give me something?"
The prince ignored me last night, why did he suddenly give me a reward? Could it be...
Zhai Zizhuang kept his mouth shut and said with a smile, "Thank you, Master, please don't embarrass me. How can we servants know what the prince is thinking?"
Xiao Cui stepped forward smartly and stuffed a purse into Cui Jinzhong's hand.
Zhai Zizhuang refused to take it and pushed it back, "I really don't know. If you have nothing to do, I will leave first."
Xie Liuxu nodded blankly. Looking at Zhai Zizhuang's receding back, she could not help but stare blankly, with the corners of her mouth raised.
Xiao Cui looked at her master like this and sighed, "Master, please go into the house and rest first. I will go out and ask around."
"Yeah!" Xie Liuxu nodded woodenly.
On the other side, Miao Yinhua also heard about Zhai Zizhuang going to Xie Liuxu. She could no longer sit still, so she stood up and walked around the room.
"Zhuye, go out and ask around."
Zhuye came back in a flash. "Manager Zhai went to thank the master for the reward that he gave to the prince. I heard it was a pair of top-quality white jade bracelets. The whole house over there is now filled with joy and they are so proud of themselves."
Zhuye was a little indignant, muttering: "How did Master Xie suddenly catch the prince's eye?"
Miao Yinhua pondered and said, "Xie Liuxu just asked Xiaocui to send a food box to Xianyueyuan, right?"
Zhuye thought about it and nodded. But then she was surprised: "Master, is it because of this that the prince gave her a reward?"
Miao Yinhua nodded with a dejected look. She was ultimately defeated in this matter. She had wanted to wait and see for a while, but she had not expected Xie Liuxu to walk ahead of her without saying a word.
I know that Lin Yan is favored, but I didn't expect that the prince would raise her so high. A lot of princesses and concubines have died. Even if Lin Yan cannot become a princess in the future, she will become a concubine.
If it's true, then I really have to flatter her! Counting on my fingers, the time for the new princess to enter the palace is getting closer and closer...
But I can't let Xie Liuxu get away with it. His eyes rolled around in his sockets.
"Please pass this news to Miss Xie like this." Miao Yinhua curled the corners of her mouth and whispered in Zhuye's ear.
Zhuye understood, her eyes turned, and a smile appeared on her face, "Yes, Master, don't worry, I will pass on the message right away."
When Xiao Cui came back from finding out the news, Xie Liuxu was sitting on the bed in a rage, with scraps of paper all over the floor. Upon closer inspection, wasn't this the book that the girl liked to read? Her eyes were red with anger and shame.
Xiao Cui screamed, "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Xie Liuxu was usually suspicious of everything, and when faced with the maid who was like a half-relative to her, she started to cry.
Unwillingly, he asked in a low voice, "But the prince rewarded me because I brought soup to Mr. Lin?"
Xiao Cui nodded!
"Why? We are all concubines, why does the prince humiliate me like this? So, as a concubine, I deserve to serve that concubine?" Xie Liuxu said while crying. Although her voice was very low, it still scared Xiao Cui.
I hurried over to close the door and windows tightly. Miao Yinhua across the street was waiting to see our girl make such a fool of herself. If these words were spread by someone with ulterior motives, the girl would be in big trouble.
