Chapter 115: Promise
When the draft is not with a maid, it turns out that the people who enter the palace to participate in the election are all people's girls, maybe which one becomes the master, which one becomes the palace people, and the girls are also divided into one, two, and three classes, and those who are born with high quality and craftsmanship may be able to enter the first and second classes, and the rest of the selections are also sent to the divisions.
Aunt Pei is considered to be in the second class, and she has been disciplined all the way from this second class to her aunt, and she laughed when she heard this: "That's not necessary, the girl who goes to the palace has to learn to stand and sit and watch people reply, or second, the same as the head has to learn, is to comb her hair and dress." β
There are two women in a palace house, whether you are in a separate courtyard at home, one person can get half of the house when you enter, and several palace people in a palace courtyard, and there is a special person to carry water and deliver food, but you have to come by yourself to comb your hair and dress yourself.
"If the girl has a great transformation in the future, the people around the girl will naturally have the grandmother sent from above to teach, and what I can teach is only the skin. After Aunt Pei finished speaking, Mama Feng smiled, she wanted Qiong Ying to come back like this, this excuse is clear, how do you know that Aunt Pei is half soft and not hard.
Ye Wenxin pursed her mouth, her eyes didn't look at Mama Feng, and she nodded in agreement: "Auntie is right, I just don't know what to pay attention to when I stand and sit." "Blindly refusing really can't do anything, you have to listen and watch more, and the people sent by others can also be used by her.
Aunt Pei paused for a moment, and then spoke: "The lord is noble, and there is only one Niangniang in the palace, one is the sun and the other is the moon, the most taboo in front of the Niangniang is to stand and sit and move her legs, and you can't raise your eyes to look at people, that is to spy on the face of the sky, and commit taboos." β
Mama Feng didn't force it, the important thing was that Ye Wenxin was willing to listen, seeing that she was listening to Aunt Pei with a smile on her face, she thought about it, Qiong Ying's girl was useless, and it was good for the last ember to make Ye Wenxin sincere and learn.
Aunt Pei has lived in the Ye family for a long time, and the Ye family said that Ye Wen was sick, so Aunt Pei kept waiting, but she understood in her heart that it was not the girl who was sick, but the girl who made her temperament.
When this errand is difficult to do, seeing Ye Wenxin breathe a sigh of relief first, no matter what she thinks in her heart, she is willing to listen to her face, and she has done the matter of teaching the rules, and both sides are on the wrong side.
Like Aunt Pei, who started to be a palace person when she was young, the best thing she knows is to figure out what she wants, the master is annoyed and has an account in her heart, this person is not happy in the first place, if she teaches the rules on the first day, she will be even more good at the end of the day, and she has to say something slowly, so that she knows that entering the palace is not a child's play.
Ye Wenxin listened to it, but what she thought in her heart was that she couldn't be selected, what she longed for was to listen to a cloud and a mud with her now, the more she listened, the more determined her mind became.
Originally, it was not early, and after speaking well, Ye Wenxin said: "Auntie just came, take a rest first, and then ask Shi Gui to wait by your side." β
While speaking, he said with a straight face: "You can wait carefully for Aunt Pei, and go to her room for vigil today." Shi Gui blinked, he deserved to say yes, he had already assigned a good thing, and when he said it again in front of Mama Feng, Mama Feng was still smiling.
Ye Wenxin has her own plans, there are one and a half of her people in this room, one is Shi Gui, and Yu Su is about half, as long as she doesn't enter the palace, Yu Su wants to be a big girl, then let her go, Shi Gui wants to redeem herself, and when she goes back, she asks her to come and let her go home according to her wishes, and what else is there that she refuses to do for her.
Shi Gui answered while leading the way: "Aunt Pei will tell me to do anything in the future." "There is also a person holding an umbrella and handing a towel next to the eldest girl in the family, and a nurturing aunt like Aunt Pei will not be less than a person who runs errands, leading a second-class example and doing the little girl's business.
She saluted, Aunt Pei said politely again, and then went back to the West Chamber, only to tell SΓΉ Shi Gui that she was eating a long fast, and she would not eat with everyone else, and would eat separately.
Shi Gui returned this matter to Ye Wenxin, and Ye Wenxin still bowed to the official tone: "Auntie has something she likes and doesn't like, you can inquire more and watch more, and then come and sue me." β
Mama Feng nodded in her heart, this thought has finally turned around, and secretly wondered, she had screwed that twist before, how to say that it was smooth again, and after thinking about it, she blamed Qiong Ying for this, and when she went back, she wrote to her son, Qiong Ying's brother, if he can do something, he will keep it, and if he is an eyeless person, where did he come from.
Ye Wenxin looked at Shi Gui, Shi Gui also knew what she was going to say, Ye Wenxin looked for something to leave her behind, only said that the homework of the next few days was put down together, there was no one in the house, the two of them got closer, and she said: "You inquire carefully, what does the lady in the palace not like? β
Shi Gui bowed his head and answered, and heard her say in his ears again: "Don't worry, this matter is done, I will ask you to come, where is your home, someone will send you back." β
Shi Gui looked up at her in a daze, and Ye Wenxin nodded at her with a smile: "You have something to ask for, and I have something to ask for, and it has nothing to do with those people." β
Shi Gui has not been able to return to the Mandarin Duck Pavilion to return to Chunyan these days, she understands Ye's intentions, but Ye's family does not value her as much as Ye Wenxin, Chunyan can send things back for her at most, if she really wants to redeem herself, Chunyan can't use her strength. But Ye Wenxin is the same, the future is in the hands of others, how can he play this guarantee?
"No matter how bad it is, I can always send you a letter back. She didn't agree lightly, Ye Wenxin realized more and more that this girl could conspire, if she opened her mouth to admit it, she was not at ease: "How much money are you worth, I will give it to you, call your father and mother to redeem you." β
In other words, she is a girl who has grown up with thousands of pets, where to move these hearts, there is no official in Yangzhou who can walk sideways in front of the Ye family, either holding her, or sitting on an equal footing, delicate and accustomed, suddenly no one responds to her, isolated, she can think about this.
This is also Shi Gui woke her up and asked her what she wanted, she took what Shi Gui wanted the most, and let her be an accomplice.
Shi Gui sighed: "I have long been on the same side as the girl, it is naturally best for the girl to succeed, if it can't be done, I have a way to go out by myself." β
Ye Wenxin smiled brightly, got her promise, stretched out his fingers, and his fingertips like green orchids bent slightly: "I can't give you a piece of proof, this is my proof, heaven and earth can learn from the sun and the moon together." β
Shi Gui saw that she was still a little girl, but couldn't help laughing, and stretched out her hand, Shi Gui's hand was much thicker, she had never done heavy work in the Song family, and she still couldn't compare with Ye Wenxin's, the two fingers were hooked together, and Ye Wenxin agreed with her: "I will definitely redeem myself for you in the spring of next year." β
Aunt Pei is a vegetarian, she eats vegan at the reception banquet at night, an old lady and a wife of the Song family are vegetarian, vegetarian dishes are more refined than meat dishes, Luohan is vegetarian, boiled dried shreds, and the vegan Buddha jumping over the wall is sent up, Aunt Pei didn't expect Ye Wenxin to pick up the wind for her, thanked her, and her face was still light, but she saw the advance and retreat of the girls in this room once.
His eyes fell on Shi Gui, just looking at her and Ye Wenxin's eyebrows, he knew that he was the most intimate, but it was a little strange, these family children were not as good as this later.
Ye Wenxin also drank a glass of vegetarian wine, Aunt Pei didn't eat it, not only did the main family prepare it, but also paid for a drink, it was still early, Aunt Pei got up and retreated, Shi Gui had to follow, and before she could go out, she heard Zhitao say that she was afraid to live alone in the house in September, and she wanted to move over with them.
Although the west wing room is smaller, it also has a bed, a tent and a window, but there is no earth dragon underneath, Feng Mama sent six out to send charcoal, these days when the snow has not stopped, the winter solstice is clean for one day, and it rains again on the second day, Ye Wenxin's house, in addition to burning the earth dragon, there are two charcoal braziers together, and you have to add charcoal once a night.
Shi Gui didn't care about the peach in the courtyard in September, he brought water in, scalded Aunt Pei's feet, and wrapped a towel in the quilt to wrap the soup woman, smoked the quilt Shi Gui saw it a few times, and smoked the clothes for the Ye family, smoked a warm aroma in the thick tent, laid out the quilt, and then folded his hands and stood aside.
Aunt Pei looked at it and smiled, and only asked her: "Have you ever learned this?" but she knew that Shi Gui was a freshman, and although his hands and feet were sharp, he was still lacking.
Shi Gui deserved it: "Originally, I only watched my sisters smoke it." β
Aunt Pei nodded, just after the end of the day, she started to needle and thread against the lamp, two bamboo hoops stretched the embroidery piece, the embroidery piece was longer than the skirt, carefully spread on the bed, Shi Gui and Yulan learned to divide the line, so she moved the small pestle to sit next to Aunt Pei, and divided the thread for her.
Aunt Pei is not fond of talking, Shi Gui also happened to save a lot of promises, a lamp oil burned to the head, Shi Gui raised his head and rubbed his neck, and saw that on this piece of satin, there were seventeen or eighteen magnolia flowers embroidered with a large bowl.
"My aunt is doing a good job. "The silk thread was split, and one for twenty branches, and the petals were thin and fluffy, and the silk threads were even and bright, and shone under the lamp, like flowers blooming in the spring sun.
Aunt Pei raised her head and smiled: "If you do more, you will naturally do it well." "There is little to do in the deep palace, since there is a maintenance center, the palace people in it are thinking about how to live when they are old, it is too late to marry at this age, how difficult it is to stand on their own, and there are many weaving and dyeing households by the Qinhuai River, it is not easy to beg for a bite to eat.
Shi Gui was quiet and knowledgeable, Aunt Pei was willing to talk to her, put down the embroidery work in her hand, and said a few rare words: "The great kindness of the queen's mother, otherwise, where can people like us go to beg for a living." "Such a large one, sold for a total of twenty or thirty taels of silver, if it is sold in a camp, it can be sold for more expensive, but the commission is strong, it is better to sell it privately for more money.
Shi Gui brought honey tea for her, and Aunt Pei shook her head: "I don't eat tea at night." "The palace maid has slept less, and she won't have a full night's sleep when she gets up again.
Undressed and lay on the bed, lying on her side, covered with a thin quilt, Shi Gui put down the tent for her, and shrunk into the quilt at home, as soon as the lights went out in the west room, Ye Wenxin was still holding a book in his hand, and when he heard Yuxu say that he had fallen asleep on the other side, he removed his hair and blew the lamp.
Shi Gui used to have to read and write, but he went to bed early today, and he was not sleepy, but Aunt Pei fell asleep quickly, and Shi Gui faced the window
The snow light that came out of the outside was stunned, these things felt ridiculous when I thought about it, Ye arranged her to Ye Wenxin, and Ye Wenxin couldn't wait to treat her as two people, one by Aunt Pei's side, and the other by Mama Feng's side.
But Shi Gui has few troubles, the soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, there is always a way to go, and he will not worry immediately, he will fall asleep with his eyes closed, and he will fall asleep after a while.
