"Princess Consort … please don't make fun of me." Hong Hao laughed foolishly and scratched his head in embarrassment. He glanced sideways at Tsui Hee, who was sitting next to him with a similarly red face.
Seeing the two of them so shy, Wei Ziyao said half-jokingly, half-seriously.
"I'm not joking. I think the two of you are quite suitable. Tsui Hee, what do you think about betrothing you to Hong Hao?"
"Ah?" When Tsui Hee heard Wei Ziyao say it so bluntly, she immediately panicked. She stood up, lowered her head, and clasped her fingers together. "This servant … this servant is just a servant of the lowest rank. Brother Hong Hao is the commander of the guards of the prince's estate, and is also the confidant of the Royal Highness. He, he can even find a rich young lady. This servant has never dared to think about these things. Miss, please don't make fun of this servant."
Hong Hao originally had a face full of anticipation, but the more she said, the colder Hong Hao's heart became.
Could it be that this was all his wishful thinking?
Tsui Hee ran away after saying this, looking extremely pitiful.
"Tsui Hee …" Hong Hao called out to her, but didn't finish his sentence.
He lowered his head and gritted his teeth for a long time without saying anything. In the end, he only said one sentence.
"This servant will take his leave first."
After the two of them left, Wei Ziyao blinked her eyes.
"Tsk, what's wrong with these two? The opportunity is right in front of them, and they're still so awkward? "
In fact, Wei Ziyao understood that she couldn't use her modern thinking to infect Tsui Hee's thoughts.
However, as long as one wasn't blind, they could see that Tsui Hee was interested in Hong Hao.
"When it comes to matters of the heart, the two of them have to figure it out. No matter how anxious outsiders are, it's useless."
Wei Ziyao agreed with Ki Chien-chul's words.
However, when she was writing the prescription in the study at night, she couldn't help but feel anxious when she saw Tsui Hee's hesitant expression.
She felt even worse when she saw that uncomfortable expression of holding back.
"Are you going to talk to me about Hong Hao?"
"Ah?" Tsui Hee was still preparing, but when she was asked, she jumped in fright and hurriedly denied it. "No, Miss. This servant, this servant will prepare hot water for you …"
"Cui Xi, you have to know that some things are yours if you grab them, but if you can't grab them, they could become someone else's at any time. You've been with me for so long, don't you even have the guts to grab a man?
Cui Xi listened to her master's words and thought for a while.
That's right, even her mistress dared to make the prince kneel on the washboard. As a personal maid, how could she be afraid?
But … her situation was different from her Miss's.
"Miss … You won't understand. You're outstanding, you have status, that's why you have the confidence to do things. But this servant … After all, I'm just a maid. Brother Hong Hao deserves better."
Tsui Hee gritted her teeth and held back her tears as she said this.
Wei Ziyao understood that compared to others belittling you, what was more devastating was realizing one's own mediocrity and being unable to change it.
For Tsui Hee, if it weren't for her Miss's excellent cooking skills, she and Hong Hao would forever be in two different worlds. Hong Hao was an unreachable existence to her.
"If you think of yourself as a servant girl, then you can only be a servant girl for the rest of your life. I don't care about other people's servant girls, but your master is me. Can you use your brain and think about whether there is another way."
"Miss … this servant is just a servant." She ran off after saying this.
Actually, there were many ways to stop Tsui Hee from being a servant.
She treated Wei Ziyao well, and Wei Ziyao remembered her kindness. As long as she returned her indenture and bought her some real estate, she could live a simple life with Hong Hao.
But this wasn't the root of the problem. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. But if Tsui Hee didn't understand, everything Wei Ziyao gave her would be for nothing.
The night passed silently …
