829 A Storm in the Kitchen (2)
Chunying and Chunhong turned a blind eye to Xue Fanxin, treating her as a maidservant who had also come to take the ingredients.
Although Uncle Hao did not like Chunying and Chunhong, these two girls were still young. If they made a huge mistake, their lives would be ruined. Hence, out of goodwill, he secretly reminded them, “Miss Chunying, Miss Chunhong, this demonic beast meat belongs to the consort. Furthermore, with our status, forget about the two of you, even Steward Zhao is not qualified to eat Rank Five demonic beast meat, so you…”
When Chunying and Chunhong heard Uncle Hao’s words, they were very dissatisfied and scolded angrily, “Hao, I think you don’t want to stay in the Lord’s Estate anymore. How dare you speak to us like this? Later, I’ll get my uncle to drive you out of the Lord’s Estate. If you still want to continue working in the Lord’s Estate, then quickly cut five kilograms of Rank Five demonic beast meat for me.”
Actually, they did not know that there was Rank Five demonic beast meat on the table, nor did they know what it looked like. They had only heard that Hao had bought a Rank Five demonic beast today, so they came to take a look. If what was said was true, they were definitely going to eat this demonic beast meat.
Now that they saw Hao’s reaction, the Rank Five demonic beast meat must be real.
Hence, they were definitely going to get the meat.
“I really can’t make the decision on this matter. The meat of a Rank Five demonic beast is too precious. Normal high-ranking officials and nobles can’t afford to eat it. If you want to eat it, unless you obtain the Lord’s permission, I won’t give you this demonic beast meat.”
“Hao, I think you really don’t want to stay in the Lord’s Estate anymore. Let me tell you, the Lord plans to choose a few consorts and concubines. Chunhong and I will definitely be chosen. When we become the Lord’s consorts and concubines, we’ll definitely teach you a lesson.”
Xue Fanxin had thought that these two arrogant maidservants were only relying on Steward Zhao’s name to lord over others. Unexpectedly, even the consorts and concubines of the Ninth Lord’s Estate had appeared.
Was Ah Jiu going to choose consorts and concubines?
Why didn’t she know?
Thinking of this, Xue Fanxin could not help but ask, “When did the Ninth Lord say that he wanted to choose consorts and concubines?”
Chunying and Chunhong glanced at Xue Fanxin and said domineeringly, “How can lowly people like you know such internal news?”
“Then how did you find out?”
“Of course I found out from my uncle. You look very unfamiliar. You must be a new maidservant who just entered the estate. Although you’re quite good-looking, don’t expect to be chosen by the Lord.”
“Why can’t I count on being chosen by the Lord? My conditions are better than both of you. I’m prettier than you, my figure is hotter than yours, my eyes are big, and my skin is fair and tender, right? I have such good conditions. The chances of being chosen are definitely higher than yours.”
Chunying and Chunhong were enraged by Xue Fanxin’s words. They looked like they wanted to eat someone and scolded her angrily. “You shameless slut. You want to snatch the Lord from us? Stop daydreaming. The Lord is ours.”
“But His Highness is not yours yet!” Xue Fanxin blinked her large eyes and became more and more playful. She felt that the two maidservants in front of her were extremely funny.
Wasn’t it a little too early to start dreaming?
Chunying and Chunhong did not know Xue Fanxin’s identity, nor did they know what she was thinking. They continued to say arrogantly, “Soon, His Highness will be ours.”
“Even if you’re chosen, you’ll only be secondary consorts and concubines. There’s still a main consort above. Furthermore, according to what I know, the Lord dotes on that consort very much. Are you sure you can snatch the Lord from her?”
Xue Fanxin continued to play. She really wanted to know what it would be like in the end.
There was no smoke without fire. It was impossible for there to be rumors about Ah Jiu choosing consorts and concubines. Was there a need to investigate this matter properly?
To her, this matter was much more serious than the matter with Consort Dowager Jing.
