Chapter 284



“Nanny Hong, Concubine Dong is inside. Please!”

“Is she fine? In fact, nobody could blame the Madam Dowager for what she did. It’s just that the Third Young Lady went too far. After all, the Fourth Young Lady will enter the Crown Prince Mansion in the future.” Nanny Hong smiled and explained why the Madam Dowager was partial to Wei Qiufu that day.

“Well, Concubine Dong is fine. She also knew that the Third Young Lady was reckless in this matter, so she reprimanded the Third Young Lady after coming back to her courtyard.” Nanny Dong nodded vigorously and echoed.

As they spoke, the two of them had already arrived at the corridor. A clever maid lifted the curtain and Concubine Dong was already waiting at the door. “Nanny Hong, please come in!”

“Concubine Dong is too polite!” Nanny Hong smiled as he entered the room.

“Does the Madam Dowager have some instructions for me?” Concubine Dong asked gently.

“The Madam Dowager really likes the pastries made by you. She specially sent me here to ask you to make more for her if you have time.” Nanny Hong said happily.

“Pastries?” Concubine Dong was stunned.

“That’s right. The Sixth Young Lady sent some of the pastries that you made for the Lord Marquis to the Madam Dowager. The Madam Dowager liked them very much and kept praising you for your cooking skills. She said even the pastries in the Palace couldn’t compare with those made by you. She asked you to make more pastries when you have time.”

Nanny Hong explained with a smile. This was her purpose for coming to Concubine Dong.

“The Madam Dowager saw the pastries?” Concubine Dong almost squeezed out her teeth as she said these words. A trace of hatred flashed in her eyes. Wei Yuewu, this cheap girl! She had not only ruined her plan, but also gotten the Madam Dowager involved.

However, the mold for making the pastries was extremely precious and each mold could only be used once. Where could she get so many molds to make pastries for the Madam Dowager?

“That’s right! The Madam Dowager kept praising you for being clever and skillful!” The smile on Nanny Hong’s face faded when she saw Concubine Dong’s gloomy expression. “What? Is there any problem?”

Seeing that the situation was a bit awkward, Nanny Dong hurriedly pulled Concubine Dong’s sleeve from behind to remind her.

“It is really a blessing to be able to make pastries for the Madam Dowager. But that mold was broken. Previously, the Lord Marquis also sent someone to get it for the Sixth Young Lady. When the mold is repaired, I will definitely make some pastries for the Madam Dowager!” Seeing the displeased look on Nanny Hong’s face, Concubine Dong immediately regained her senses and smiled awkwardly.

“Alright, then. Please quickly get someone to repair the mold. The Madam Dowager is waiting for your pastries. I won’t keep disturbing you. Have a good rest and I will leave now!”

When she heard that Concubine Dong did not have a mold to make pastries, Nanny Hong’s expression hardened slightly. She said a few words in a lukewarm manner and took her leave.

Seeing Nanny Hong’s figure disappearing at the entrance of the courtyard, Concubine Dong slammed the table angrily and gritted her teeth. “This bitch… she… How dare she…”

“Concubine, don’t be angry. This might be a coincidence. After all, it is impossible for the Sixth Young Lady to know about it!” Nanny Dong consoled from the side.

“Coincidence? Ha, this bitch just won’t let me feel at ease. I have already told the people sent by Lord Marquis that the mold was broken and couldn’t be used for a while, but she still attracted the attention of the Madam Dowager by sending the pastries to her!” Concubine Dong gritted her teeth and said hatefully. Then, she sat down heavily, her eyes filled with malice.

Although her plan hadn’t been completely ruined, it was still troublesome to have this cheap girl in the mansion. Although Wei Yuewu did not know what she wanted to do with these pastries, what would the Madam Dowager think after Wei Yuewu sent the pastries to the Madam Dowager?

The Madam Dowager would probably think that she was deliberately currying favor from the Lord Marquis and was unfilial to her because she made such nice pastries only for the Lord Marquis but not for her.

As soon as she thought of this possibility, Concubine Dong wished that she could tear Wei Yuewu apart. She couldn’t help but regret not killing her back then.

She could only blame herself for not being ruthless enough.

Back then, she thought Wei Yuewu was just a little girl who had no mother and was born with congenital deficiency, which was likely to escalate into a serious illness and take her life. Who would have thought that this girl was so lucky and lived to this day?

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but think of Lady Li, who had been her accomplice over the years. Her eyes darkened as she asked, “Is the Second Lady really crippled?”

“It should be impossible for the Second Lady to come back. I think something might have happened to the Second Lady. When the Second Master returned to the mansion that day, he didn’t talk about the Second Lady with anyone. Do you still remember?” Nanny Dong reminded Concubine Dong.

That day, Concubine Dong was punished because of Wei Yuejiao. After Wei Luowu came in, she also saw the situation. At that time, Wei Luowu was obviously having something on his mind, and his eyes were gloomy as if he was bloodthirsty. Soon, the Madam Dowager sent her and Wei Yuejiao away.

“Can you manage to see the Second Lady?” Concubine Dong asked after pondering for a moment.

Although Lady Li had returned to her parents’ home and she did not know what had happened to her, some of the most trusted servants of Lady Li were still in the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang. If they could be used by her, it would be a great benefit.

Apparently, Concubine Dong was trying to fish in troubled waters.

“I’m afraid that won’t do. When I went to see the Second Lady last time, I was directly sent out by Li Mansion’s people. They said that the Second Lady was heavily injured and couldn’t receive guests before she got well.” Nanny Dong thought for a moment and said. “But the Second Lady only fell and injured herself. How come she wasn’t allowed to receive guests? Moreover, I told them that I was from the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang.”

Even though Lady Li was in her parents’ home, she was still a daughter-in-law of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang. When the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang sent people over, the Li Mansion did not even allow Lady Li to show up. Was Lady Li really injured too seriously, or was there some secret that couldn’t be known by others? For a moment, Concubine Dong could not figure it out.

Back then, the two of them collaborated to take Qin Xinrui’s life. Both of them benefited from their cooperation and got what they needed. In a sense, they could be considered perfect accomplices. But now, Lady Li was actually injured to such an extent that she couldn’t even see anyone. Thinking of this, Concubine Dong couldn’t help but frown in grief.

If Lady Li was still in the mansion, she would not be in such a difficult situation. It seemed that she had to think of a way to let Lady Li come back. After all, she was now only a concubine, and there were many things that were beyond her control.

But now that she could not even contact Lady Li, Concubine Dong was really anxious. It seemed that she had to think of a way to secretly meet Lady Li!

“Concubine, don’t worry. The Sixth Young Lady is about to enter the Palace to accompany the Third Princess to pray. I heard that this isn’t an easy job. Who knows if she will provoke one of the masters in the Palace and cause trouble for herself?” Nanny Dong tried to make Concubine Dong feel better.

Palace? Nanny Dong’s words reminded Concubine Dong. Her eyes suddenly lit up. Others might not know what life was like in the Palace, but she did have some knowledge about it.

With that person in the Palace, Wei Yuewu might not have an easy time in the Palace.

However, that person might not necessarily hate the little girl who almost lost her life back then.

“Did I send those pieces of cloth to her last time?” Concubine Dong turned around and asked Nanny Dong. Although she prepared everything carefully before returning, she had been busy after returning to the mansion and had forgotten about this matter.

“Yes. The cloth was prepared long ago, and those pieces of cloth is very exquisite. Even the Lord Marquis said that you chose a nice gift for the Sixth Young Lady.” At that time, Concubine entrusted Nanny Dong with everything. Therefore, she remembered it clearly, especially the gift for Wei Yuewu. As for Wei Luowen’s words, they were just fabricated by her to flatter Concubine Dong.

She knew Concubine Dong spent a lot of time choosing the gift for Wei Yuewu.

“I heard that that girl doesn’t have many dresses, and she doesn’t have a biological mother to take care of her. As a concubine, I have to take care of her a little. In a while, we will go to the Lord Marquis’ study and put up a few good words for the Sixth Young Lady. We should make a few more sets of dresses for the Sixth Young Lady before she enters the Palace. We can’t let the Sixth Young Lady lose face because she doesn’t have enough dresses.”

Concubine Dong sneered. She had selected those pieces of cloths according to that lady’s preferences. Those flowers were the ones she liked most in the past. It was said that Lord Marquis had once said these flowers were beautiful.

However, nobody would wear dresses decorated with such flowers now!

Moreover, that remote tribe was really too far away from the capital. This kind of flower pattern slowly disappeared. Now, in the capital city, there should not be anyone wearing clothes decorated with this kind of flower anymore!

As long as that person remembered the past and was truly provoked, even if Wei Yuewu had nine lives, she might not be able to survive.

“Let’s go to the kitchen and make some sweet soup for Lord Marquis!” Having made up her mind, Concubine Dong stood up and walked out.

“Alright, I will go and prepare it right away!” Nanny Dong understood and followed her.

“What? Grandmother wants to make extra dresses for me?” Wei Yuewu put down the teacup in her hand and looked at the several old maidservants in front of her. She asked in surprise. She clearly remembered that the Madam Dowager had just given her a set of clothes before. She didn’t ask her to make more clothes.

“Yes, Sixth Young Lady. The Madam Dowager specifically told us to come over to take your size and make a few sets of clothes for you to wear in the Palace. The Madam Dowager said that you will stay in the Palace for some days this time. It was impossible to come out in a short time. Even ten sets of dresses were not enough. It was best to prepare a few more sets in case of urgent need. That was why she sent us over. She asked us to make five more sets of dresses for you in the next few days. Someone has also gone to the Fourth Young Lady’s courtyard to take her size!”

One of the old maidservants from the sewing house explained with a forced smile.

“But… where is the cloth…” Jin Ling looked at the empty hands of the old maidservants and asked in confusion. Why didn’t they bring any cloth with them since they claimed to make dresses for the young lady?

“The Madam Dowager said that we can use the cloth of the Fourth Young Lady’s and Sixth Young Lady’s. The Madam Dowager doesn’t have any good cloth at the moment. When the two young ladies come back from the Palace, she will reward you with some new cloth!” The old maidservant explained.

So, the Madam Dowager wanted her to wear dresses made of her own cloth in the Palace? She did obtain some cloth recently from Concubine Dong. Moreover, those pieces of cloth was indeed outstanding. Otherwise, Zhao Ruo’e would not have chosen the piece of cloth sent by Concubine Dong at a glance.

Wei Yuewu sneered in her heart. This must be Concubine Dong’s idea. She was forcing her to take out those pieces of cloth to make dresses!

The imperial palace? It seemed that Concubine Dong really had long arms…

Well, it seemed that Concubine Dong also knew about some of the things that happened back then. That was good. She really needed Concubine Dong’s guidance to solve the puzzle of her childhood…
