Chapter 345: Mandarin Duck Meets Mu Ning
"Meet the Madam!"
The voice of the little maid came from outside the door. Zhen Muring collected his thoughts, stood up and went to the door.
As soon as I arrived at the outer hall, I saw Yuanyang leading two maids in!
"I am Zhen Muring from the Zhen family, greetings to Madam Jin!" Zhen Muring said as he bowed.
Yuanyang took two quick steps to help Zhen Muring up, "Sister, why are you so polite? I came here in a presumptuous way today, I hope you don't blame me for being rude!"
Mo Hen served tea, while Shi Ya stood beside Zhen Muring and quietly looked at this famous concubine.
Although Yuanyang was just a maid before, she had been with the old lady for many years and had her own manners and propriety in her speech and conversation. With just a few words, she made everyone feel good about her. Even Zhen Muring felt that this sister was so pleasing to her.
"The other day the master gave me some rolls of satin, saying they were imported goods. I thought they were good, so I gave one to my sister."
Having said that, he asked Xin'er and the other two to hand the satin to Shiya.
Zhen Muring said softly, "Sister, please excuse me for spending money. I am staying in your house. I should have gone to visit you, but you came in person. That's Muring's fault."
"My sister and I are destined to be together anyway, so why should we be polite?" Yuanyang said with a smile, "You guys go out first, I'll have a few heartfelt words with Sister Zhen."
Shi Ya and the other two looked at Zhen Muring. Zhen Muring hesitated for a moment and then waved her hand. Then the two of them bowed to Yuan Yang and left the hall. Xin'er and the other two naturally followed them out.
"What does Sister Yuanyang want to tell me?" Zhen Muring asked.
Yuanyang held Zhen Muring's hand and said, "I'm here to apologize to my sister on behalf of the master."
Zhen Muring's face suddenly turned pale, "What do you mean, sister?"
"The master told me what happened that day!"
Zhen Muring's body swayed. She felt like a clown and had been stripped naked. This kind sister looked extremely hateful.
"You...you go away, you are all devils, all of you go away! I am already in this state, how can you humiliate me? Isn't it enough?" Zhen Muring suddenly screamed.
Shi Ya and the other person outside the door ignored Xin Er and Mei Er's attempts to stop them and pushed the door open. Zhen Muring collapsed and yelled at them, "Get out, all of you get out, no one is allowed to come in!"
Seeing that Shi Ya and the other two were still looking at her, Zhen Muring screamed, "I told you to get out. Do you two want to kill me too?"
Shi Ya and the other girl were so flustered that they didn't know how to show their friendship. When they saw Yuan Yang waving at them, they had no choice but to retreat first.
After the door was closed, Yuanyang sighed and said, "Sister, if I came here to humiliate you, why did I come?"
"The master hurt you that day, and he felt uneasy in his heart, but he is the master in the front, how can he lower his face to apologize to our backyard? Yesterday, the old lady of your mansion went to the East Mansion to see the master, and the master was furious. You should also know that the Zhen family plotted against the master, and the master must be furious, but even so, didn't he submit a memorial to plead for the Zhen family girl?"
"Sister is also a smart person. Can't you figure out the connection between these two?"
"Although I was born a slave, I am also a woman, so I can empathize with you! When have we ever really lived for ourselves in our lives?"
"Sister was born in the Zhen family, so she is naturally rich and powerful. Others only see her splendor, but never understand her sadness!"
"But, what we women want is just a considerate husband. I know how much pain you are in for your family, but it's not the master's fault. If that's the case, why should you be upset and make the master feel uneasy?"
Hearing Yuanyang's words, Zhen Muring suddenly threw herself into Yuanyang's arms and burst into tears!
Seeing this, Yuanyang finally felt relieved! What happened to Zhen Muring had nothing to do with her, but she cared about her master's sorrow and joy. Jia Cong's words last night had already let her know the reason, so she came here today. Moreover, since the marriage arranged by the emperor had been finalized, Zhen Muring would also enter the East Palace in the future, so she naturally didn't want any of her sisters in the family to resent the master.
A family is one that lives in harmony and happiness. If people cannot even feel at ease at home, how can it still be called a "home".
After an unknown amount of time, Zhen Muring finally stopped crying, stood up and stood beside Yuanyang somewhat awkwardly.
"Sister, I am so rude!"
Yuanyang laughed when she heard that, "We are sisters, how could I laugh at you?"
As he spoke, he pulled Zhen Muring to sit down again, "To be honest, you and the master are also doomed to be together, but if you ask me, it is also a blessing for my sister! Our master is naturally the best master in the world."
"He is not only good at both civil and military affairs, but also loves us girls the most! I am just a slave, but the master has asked for an imperial decree. What a favor! And, sister, don't blame me for saying something harsh. If I were to say it, it was your Zhen family's fault! Why do you have to use such dirty means? As long as my sister goes to ask for help, can the master not agree?"
"If you want to talk about cruelty, it's the Zhen family who is cruel to me. Could it be that I want to hurt the people who care about you just because of someone who is cruel to you?"
"In a month or two, after my sister enters the East Palace, the master will protect us. By then, no one in the world, let alone the Zhen family, will let my sister suffer any injustice."
Zhen Muring was a little absent-minded, and her mind was in a mess.
"Okay, sister, I can't stay long. I will go back to serve the master when he leaves. But you don't have to stay in the yard all day. This body is yours, you should take good care of it. Otherwise, won't we suffer? Besides, I am bored in the mansion all day. If you are free, please send someone to tell me and I will have someone bring a carriage to pick you up and have a chat."
Zhen Muring nodded gratefully. It was as if she was in a dry desert, as if she had been abandoned by the whole world, but this sudden appearance of her sister brought her an oasis.
"That's it. I'll go first. You don't have to see me off, sister!" Yuanyang stood up and walked out, and Zhen Muring hurried to follow.
When they were about to leave, Yuanyang suddenly stopped and said with a smile, "Originally, I hated your Zhen family very much. When your old lady left yesterday, I was very angry. But when I heard that it was my sister who wanted to meet your eldest daughter, I softened my heart."
"In the next two days, the master will go to deal with the matter of Prince Beijing's Mansion. I think he will send someone to pick you up at that time. You just need to get ready."
After saying this, he opened the door and left.
