Jin Wang was indeed angry all day.

This anger was not only because of Yaoniang but also because of Fucheng's insensibility and contempt.

He, dignified qinwang, actually needed his subordinates to knock out a woman and send it to his room. This was simply adding fuel to the fire that Yaoniang had ignited!

He couldn’t bully the little nanny. Otherwise, he wouldn't be wise, brilliant, majestic and powerful. He could only resort to bullying the ignorant Fucheng.

Seeing Fucheng bullied, Jin Wang felt refreshed.

But he still felt unhappy, because the pale and pretty face of the little nanny would always flash in front of him. After she went out, he heard her movements outside and an inexplicable feeling of annoyance sprang up.

Her guts were so small, she must have been terrified. In fact, he didn't want to do anything, he merely wanted to see… 

After thinking and thinking, Jin Wang ordered people to go to the small courtyard early the next morning.

Like Jin Wang, Yaoniang was also restless the entire day.

There was an unspeakable feeling. She was afraid that someone would soon come to order her to pack up and leave. She was afraid that Jin Wang would reflect on what she did and punish her. There were also other things that she couldn’t completely understand.

After staying up all night, Yaoniang got up the next day and looked at herself in the mirror. She had dark eye circles on her face.

It was a pity that she never used rouge powder, nor did she have those things on hand. There was no way to cover them up, so she could only report for duty with dark circles on her face for everyone to see.

Yaoniang was born white, which made her dark circles particularly obvious. When Yuyan saw her, she was a bit surprised. When she learned that she didn't sleep well at night, she couldn't help sighing. Yuchan said that she had never seen this happen before when Yaoniang worked the night shift. Why did she have them now that she wasn’t even working the night shift?

Yaoniang was embarrassed and couldn't answer. Fortunately, Yuyan didn't say anything else. She just asked Lu'er to go to the kitchen to get a freshly boiled egg for Yaoniang to roll on her face.

When the people from Zhaohui Hall came, Yaoniang’s face was half-covered as she rolled the egg under her eyes. She was stunned when she heard that it was someone from Zhaohui Hall. By the time she reacted, her skin had been scalded to the point of pain and the area under her eye had turned red.

The egg rolled to the ground. In a panic to pick it up, she almost smashed the mirror on the nearby stand.

Just as she stood up, Lu'er came in happily, "Nanny Su, His Highness bestowed a reward for you."

Huh?

Yaoniang was stunned.

"Hurry up and go out to give thanks. His Highness said that you have served the little princess well…" Lu’er said while pulling Yaoniang out. Yuyan and Yucui also looked at her with a smile.

When they arrived in the yard, a young eunuch in a crew neck shirt stood there, with a few other eunuchs holding their trays next to him.

In the entire Jin Wang Mansion, only Jin Wang had eunuchs serving him. They were all brought over from the imperial palace back then.

Yaoiang recognized him. This was Fucheng's godson, Xiao Shunzi, who was also well known in Jin Wang Mansion.

Yaoniang knelt to give thanks for the reward. Xiao Shunzi didn't stay for very long before he brought the others back.

After everyone had left, the people in the small courtyard all gathered to congratulate Yaoniang.

In all of Jin Wang Mansion, the most generous one was undoubtedly Jin Wang. Whenever someone was rewarded by him, the reward never failed to make people stunned. Especially since this was the first time for Jin Wang to bestow a reward on a servant and it made people jealous. Even the people from Liuchun Pavillion heard the movement.

The tray was covered with red cloth. Someone wanted to lift it up but was driven away by Luyao. Those who were familiar with Yaoniang clamouring for drinks and a meal. The courtyard was full of noise.

Seeing the ruckus caused by everyone, Yurong said, "Enough, enough. Everyone disperse! Let Nanny Su invite everyone to eat fruit and drink wine."

It was not the first day that Yaoniang entered the residence, and she naturally understood the rules. Generally, if a servant was bestowed a reward from above, she would buy a meal for everyone, which would be considered joyful. Naturally, she nodded in agreement with Yurong's words, saying that she would invite everyone to eat fruit and wine another day. Then everyone dispersed.

Cuizhu has been standing in the crowd. She had thin cheeks and a haggard face. Looking at Yaoniang who was surrounded by others, she was full of hate and jealousy. She clenched her hands, gritted her teeth and left.

Helping Yaoniang to carry things back to the house, Lu'er and others left, leaving Yaoniang alone.

She stood at the table, hesitated, then went to lift the red silk on the tray.

As expected, the rewards that Jin Wang bestowed were generous and extravagant. There was a rose gold bracelet, a pair of rose gold pendant earrings, and a rose gold hairpin.

They shined and glittered. It felt very heavy in her hand.

Compared with the gold-plated hairpin and the jade bracelet given to Yaoniang by Side Consort Hu, Jin Wang's lavishness was indeed different.

This kind of reward, seriously speaking, Yaoniang had received many times. She was already familiar with it, but this time it made her feel surprised.

She didn’t bet wrongly.

Jin Wang was indeed a gentleman.

After what she said yesterday, he didn’t make it hard for her and he didn't even vent his anger on her. It was because she understood Jin Wang's temperament that Yaoniang had the courage to say those words yesterday.

But it was because of this that Yaoniang's heart became even sourer.

In addition to these pieces of jewelry, clothes were placed in the other two trays, but Yaoniang didn't bother to look at those in closer detail. She put them to the bottom of her drawers. There was no opportunity for her to wear them anyways.
