Chapter 1191 The Sickly Child Who Was Schemed Against 5
Time quickly came to dinner. Jiang Chunxi and Song Zhende sat down at the table to eat, and the three maids served the dishes.
"My lord, these three maids were carefully selected by my mother. Each one is as beautiful as a flower. I wonder if you are satisfied?" Jiang Chunxi picked up her chopsticks and looked at Song Zhende with a smile.
“The people my mother-in-law chose are naturally without fault,” Song Zhende said with a forced smile. “These three maids are very good, but…”
“But what?” Jiang Chunxi’s face immediately turned cold. “Husband, you’re not going to say something to upset me again, are you? You were saying you were satisfied, but your tone quickly changed.”
"What's wrong? Could it be that these three maids did something to displease you while serving in the study today? If so, I'll find someone to train them properly and make sure they're trained to your liking."
“No need,” Song Zhende felt his anger was about to burst again. “The three maids are very good. I have no complaints. It’s just that I usually prefer to read in peace and quiet and don’t like being disturbed. So, you don’t need to have them serve you in the study anymore. After all, I really appreciate the beauty and charm of a maid.”
"Oh, I see!" Jiang Chunxi laughed. "It's all my fault. I made assumptions before you finished speaking and misunderstood you. But you can't blame me. What you did today really triggered my stress response."
“How can you blame yourself? You can only blame me. If it weren’t for me…” Song Zhende sighed slightly. “Forget it, let’s not talk about this anymore. Some things should be left in the past. Bringing them up all the time will only affect our relationship as husband and wife.”
“That’s true,” Jiang Chunxi agreed. “By the way, husband, which of them would you like to serve you tonight? You promised me that you would let me hold the baby as soon as possible, so you have to work hard and don’t let me down, okay?”
Song Zhende's hand gripping the chopsticks tightened slightly: "Chunxi, I know you're anxious, but we're still newlyweds, and I really don't want to favor you at this time..."
"Smack!" Jiang Chunxi slammed down her chopsticks, her eyes instantly reddening. "Song Zhende, you really do one thing and do another. Your words just now are still ringing in my ears, and now you're going to do the same old thing again."
"What wedding date? With my broken body, I can't even consummate our marriage. You're deliberately bringing up the wedding date to rub salt into my wounds. You can't stand to see me happy, you just want to find every opportunity to upset me, don't you?"
"Chunxi, why are you misunderstanding me again?" Song Zhende said helplessly. "Fine, fine, I'll listen to you. I'll have her serve me tonight!"
Song Zhende pointed to one of the three maids and said that at this moment he just wanted to appease Jiang Chunxi as soon as possible and didn't want any more trouble. Otherwise, if Jiang Chunxi continued to make a fuss, she would drive him crazy.
As for Liu Meier...
Sigh! Song Zhende could only console himself, thinking that Mei'er would surely understand him.
Jiang Chunxi naturally knew when to stop, and a smile returned to her face: "That's more like it."
Then Jiang Chunxi looked at the maid that Song Zhende had pointed to: "Taoxiang, you must serve the young master well tonight. If you serve the young master well, I, the young master's wife, will reward you handsomely."
"Yes," Tao Xiang replied with a shy curtsy, "Your Highness, this servant will certainly serve Your Highness well and help you have children as soon as possible."
Tao Xiang and the other two maids naturally had ambitions, after all, they knew early on that they had to serve the young master and continue the family line for him and the young master's wife.
So, they had long been determined to give birth to the Crown Prince's eldest son, because this eldest son would be registered under the Crown Princess's name and raised by her as the legitimate heir.
The other two maids were naturally extremely jealous, but they didn't dare to act rashly. They could only secretly pray that Tao Xiang wouldn't be so lucky as to get pregnant with the young master's child so quickly.
After dinner, Jiang Chunxi looked exhausted and said she was tired, so she urged Song Zhende to take Taoxiang away and hurry up and start a family.
Liu Meier is no longer a first-class maid, so naturally she can no longer live in a single room by herself, but instead lives in a shared room with the maids who are lowly servants.
"I heard that Tao Xiang will be serving the young master tonight," two maids whispered as they entered the room. At that moment, Liu Mei'er was lying on the large communal bed. "Tao Xiang is really lucky. She won first place. If her belly is cooperative, she might get pregnant with the young master's child tonight."
"The Crown Princess said that she would raise the Crown Prince's eldest son and daughter herself. If Tao Xiang can give birth to the Crown Prince's first child, whether it is a boy or a girl, she will be set for life."
“That’s right,” came the voice of another maid, “The Crown Princess has always been kind-hearted and would never do such a terrible thing as abandoning a mother and leaving her child behind. If Tao Xiang can give birth to the Crown Prince’s first child and have it registered under the Crown Princess’s name, then the Crown Princess will definitely treat Tao Xiang well for the sake of the child.”
Liu Meier trembled all over, her heart aching as if being torn apart, and her hatred for that bitch Jiang Chunxi deepened.
But there was nothing she could do; she couldn't even sneak off to see Song Zhende.
“If you ask me, this person needs to recognize their own status. Don’t take advantage of your master’s kindness and forget your duty as a servant. Don’t squander your original good fortune,” said the rough maid lying next to Liu Mei’er. “She was originally a good maid, but she has turned herself into a rough maid.”
"Tsk tsk! Her skills are unmatched. You know, Liu Meier has been a head maid all these years, relying on the favor of the Crown Prince's wife, she's been incredibly arrogant and domineering."
"But now look what happened! Not only have you become a lowly maid, but you've also been punished by Granny Liu to this terrible state. Look at that pretty little face, it's almost turned into a pig's head. Not to mention, you've been kneeling for two hours, your kneecaps are probably almost ruined!"
"She deserves it," came the voice of another maid. "She's already been punished by the Crown Princess, but she still dares not to repent. Does she really think that just because her mother nursed the Crown Princess, she'll be special in the Crown Princess's eyes? Don't really think of yourself as a mistress!"
"Now look what happened! She's brought this upon herself. I've seen people who court death, but it's rare to see someone as self-destructive as Liu Meier."
“As a person, you have to recognize your own status,” another voice said. “A servant is a servant, and a master is a master. If a master is good to a servant, it is a gift from the master. Besides being grateful, a servant must always keep to his duty so as not to fail to live up to the master’s gift.”
