Chapter Twenty-Four: Miss Shen Ba
It turns out that her name is Shen Qinghan, Miss Shen Fuba, does she still remember that she is the daughter of the prime minister, the young lady of the family?
As soon as she heard the name Youlan, Ye Qiu Ni also had an impression, "Yes, the daughter of the room, Shen Qinghan." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Only then did everyone suddenly realize that they remembered such a person.
"Okay, that's a good idea. It just so happens that someone is coming to the palace, and the specific guest list is about to be reported. Because only the number of people was counted before, and the specific guest list was only counted tonight, Shen Shenyin felt that Shen Anyan's method was very good, and he actually thought of such a person, and immediately handed it over to Ye Qiu Ni to do it. "Just change Yalan's position to Shen Qinghan. ”
Ye Qiu Ni nodded, and then the atmosphere was not so heavy, and Shen Shenyin was also a lot lighter. When I was ready to use dinner, the people in the palace came to count the names, and the night autumn Ni ordered people to entertain the people, and after reporting the names through the tedious process, he gave them silver and invited them to drink tea, and the people in the palace slowly left, counting the next family.
"We don't know how Shen Qinghan is now, why don't we meet Shen Qinghan?"
Shen Shenyin nodded and said, "Yes, let everyone meet her first." ”
Ye Qiu Ni didn't forget her motherly image at this time, and specially sent her personal maid Ju Ye to find Shen Qinghan.
At this time, in the laundry room, a girl who had just passed eleven years old was still working, squatting in the laundry room, with pollen and fragrant powder liquid beside her, washing clothes with all the maidservants.
"Qingya, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, I heard that there will be better things in the handyman room this time! You can also acquiesce to let a few go out to watch the lights and watch the play!" The one squatting opposite the "maid" called "Qingya" to wash clothes is a maid in coarse cloth and plain clothes, the same age as Qingya.
She picked up her hand that had been soaked in the basin for half a day, it was already red and swollen, and it was wrinkled by the blister, and she rubbed her hands hard.
Qingya raised her head, "Really, Yilan, who did you listen to, why is this happening?"
Yilan on the other side repeated what he heard in the kitchen today: "Hey! This is still fake, choose a few people to go out to buy supplies, and it is tacitly allowed to go out to watch a play." This time, the lady is in a good mood to bring the eldest lady into the palace, and the eldest lady is about to be in time......"
Before he could finish speaking, a light flashed in, and the door to the laundry room was pushed open.
"Hey, what are you doing, chewing your tongue here! Beware of not giving you food tonight!"
This is the new steward of their laundry room, the neon steward. I don't know why the previous steward is gone, Neon suddenly became a steward, I heard that it was Neon who harmed the previous steward and stuffed the Qi family with silver. But who died, who was transferred, and who was assigned again, it has nothing to do with them, it's just a boring talk behind the scenes.
"Steward Neon. Qing Ya and Yi Lan saw Neon, got up and said, Neon is famous for worshipping high and low, and is very mean to her subordinates, and almost everyone who has worked under her is dissatisfied.
"What are you doing, what are you doing!" Neon shouted loudly, "Work on your shoulders, you guys are lazy, we can't stand the first-class reward in the laundry room, I think it's you girls who come to work on errands have problems, and you will be lazy if you have nothing to do all day long!"
Yilan was anxiously red-eyed, and explained aggrievedly: "Steward Ni, we didn't! Let's gossip a little!" "The two of them worked so hard, the weather was so cold, their hands were swollen and frozen, and they would be punished for not eating dinner, Neon loved to find opportunities to train them, what kind of high position did they take themselves, a laundry room manager!"
"What?" Neon was visibly angry, "You dead girl dare to talk back to me!"
After that, he raised his hand, and with a "snap", he slapped Yilan's face fiercely. "You kneel for me!"
Then before Yilan recovered from the pain of that slap, he gave another resounding slap on his backhand.
When Qing Ya saw this scene, she was obviously afraid, and she was about to take it back, and leaned forward to salute and plead: "Neon good sister, don't worry about us." ”
Neon held her head high, looking noble, and looked at Yilan with ridicule and disdain at the corners of her mouth. took out the embroidered handkerchief and shook it open, and wiped the hand that had hit Yilan just now, as if it was dirty.
"You guys should be careful for me in the future!" Neon rolled her eyes, then turned to Qingya and said, "This time, I will deduct your monthly salary for a month." ”
Yilan already had tears in the corners of her eyes, and the young girl couldn't stand such anger, she was still too impulsive, and roared: "Who do you think you are......?
Almost all happened at the same moment one by one
Neon was furious, raised her foot and kicked Yilan fiercely. was about to curse before he opened his mouth to shout a word, when a woman in a more gorgeous dress suddenly appeared outside the door, which made Neon stunned in place.
And the woman's name happened to see it all completely.
As soon as Kikuba came in, she saw a scene here, and the chaos here was like this so that she didn't want to open her mouth at all, Juye closed her eyes, opened them again, and still didn't say a word, with a helpless look and didn't want to see their expressions.
"Girl, who are you, you haven't seen it, why did you come to such a place?" As soon as Neon saw Juye, she thought it was a young lady in the house or a housekeeper like Qi, a person who was in charge of some miscellaneous labor, of course, she could also take care of them, and it was estimated that there was something to inform them of the laundry.
Kikuha disdained to talk to such a person, and raised her head, the slender and graceful curve of her neck made her arrogant and high-definition out of place in this dark and damp laundry room. Ju Ye seemed to make a voice through her nose and said, "I'm here to find Miss Shen Ba, tomorrow is the palace banquet, take Miss Ba to prepare." ”
Neon, Yilan and Qingya were all stunned, Miss Shen Ba?
Ju Ye looked very calm, as if this eighth lady had always been a certain young lady in the Shen Mansion, and she just came to call it very usually.
Come to the laundry room and call.
Qingya doesn't seem to have reacted yet, ten years, she has been an ordinary maid since she was born, and she has only heard Youlan mention her father once. After a long time, she had long since gotten used to it.
But this kind of major event, even if it is only mentioned once, will be deeply rooted in the memory.
"I'm Shen Qing......"
Juye didn't want to listen to her nonsense at all, she just wanted to leave this place of miscellaneous servants in the South Chamber as soon as possible.
"Okay, I got it. Hurry up, Xiangye and Mrs. want to see you. With that, Juye turned her head and walked out.
Qing Ya didn't react yet, she looked at Yilan with wide eyes in surprise, Yilan was also surprised, looked at Qing Ya, thought about their conversation, Qing Ya can turn over!
"Go, hurry up. Yilan hurriedly pushed Qingya, for fear that her dream would be shattered.
“…… Uh-huh!" Qingya nodded, from not knowing what mood she was in at the beginning to now being ecstatic, she seemed to figure out what was going on! The prime minister is going to recognize her daughter! Neon looked confused, and chased Qingya out.
Ju Ye took Qing Ya to the main hall, and the scenery all the way seemed to be something Qing Ya had never seen before, and she was amazed by the luxury and prosperity of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
She rarely walked to the place where her masters were active, and left the place where the miscellaneous servants of the South Courtyard were located.
And this time I came here, but the meaning is extraordinary.
As Ju Ye pushed open the door of the main hall, Qing Ya opened her mouth in surprise, the main pavilion of the Prime Minister's Mansion is really like a big hall, bright and huge!
The gold-topped stone wall is painted with various patterns of birds and flowers, and it is colorful. The floor is covered with a carpet embroidered with soft brocade and satin, and occasionally a few bright red flames burn, which are warm and soft when stepped on, bringing warmth to the cold weather that has already entered autumn.
There are beautiful cranes and furnaces in front, and behind them is the finely carved screen, which can only be described by the brilliance of the golden wall, which is both solemn and magnificent.
The incense burner and the heater are lit together in the house, and when you come in, you can feel a completely different temperature from the outside.
And at this time, there were gorgeously dressed people sitting at the top of the house and on both sides, dignified and generous, not angry and arrogant, they were all masters in the Prime Minister's Mansion!
Many of them are fresh faces that Qing Ya has never seen, usually you can see the prime minister and his wife from a distance, or the eldest lady, so many masters of the Prime Minister's Mansion, all the aunts and young ladies, dressed in serious and luxurious clothes, these people are looking at her!
Qingya didn't know how to speak, Xiangye, Mrs., Father, Mother?
She didn't dare call it that.
She lowered her head, which she had never dared to raise, half-squatted and knelt down to make a big salute, saying ten thousand blessings, and did not call it directly.
"You are Shen Qinghan, raise your head and let's take a look at you. Ye Qiu Ni looked at this girl who was dressed no different from the maidservant, and she didn't think that her temperament was similar to Shen Shenyin, and said that this was Shen Qinghan, the eighth daughter of the prime minister, and there were really few people who could believe it.
"I ...... I am...... My name is ......" Qingya stammered, wanting to say something, but because she was nervous, she couldn't speak.
"Alright, you get up first. Ye Qiu Ni interrupted Shen Qinghan's words, without the posture and temperament of a young lady, what is the difference between her and an ordinary maidservant? Ye Qiu Ni instructed again, "I have registered your name with the palace people, and you will follow you to the autumn banquet tomorrow." ”
Shen Shenyin looked at the girl in front of him and pondered for a moment, and said to Ye Qiu Ni: "Madam, find her a room to live in, and don't let others say that our Shen Mansion treats Miss harshly." ”
Shen Shenyin said naturally, as if there was no memory of the past, and Ye Qiu Ni also nodded.
"You're going to the Huichun Courtyard. Ye Qiu Ni thought for a moment and commanded. "Yan Guo, you go and tell me to vacate the main wing room for the eight girls to live in. ”
Huichun Courtyard is different from other young ladies' courtyards, young ladies have independent courtyards and attics, but in Huichun Courtyard, there are also main compartments and several side compartments, all of which are inhabited, different people, and there are also management such as Qi living in it, although they are the highest minions in the house, but in the final analysis, they are still minions who do things for the prime minister.
But Qingya doesn't know so much for the time being, but she's just happy that she can go to the hospital and don't have to live in the Chase shop of the maids. "Thank you, ma'am!"
Ye Qiu Ni also politely said "just call my mother", and other young ladies occasionally call her Mrs., not to mention that Shen Qinghan is just a temporary young lady, just call Mrs.
"If you have any other needs, you can tell us. Ye Qiu Ni asked.
"Madam, the name you gave me back then was Shen Qingya. Qingya's eyes widened, wanting to correct it, and recalled what her mother said to her, although she didn't know how to read, but she always kept this sentence in mind, "You said that it was from the poem "Spring", and you didn't hesitate to step on the flowers, only to worry about the birds; ”
The crowd fell silent. This is really not polite, and he said so much, he didn't even look at his face, and he really regarded himself as a young lady, no wonder others said that he would rather marry a noble concubine than a poor girl, Shen Qinghan's temperament and handling things are not as good as a few personal big girls in the Shen Mansion!
But Ye Qiu Ni would definitely not put on an ugly face to Shen Qinghan, and put on a majestic and loving housewife.
Seeing this scene, Ye Xiao smiled at Shen Qinghan, slowly spoke, and said: "Ya, Ya, the pronunciation is too similar, my daughter's family must like something that is not so ordinary, if Ya is the tenth lady in the house, Yalan is heavy." Besides, the person who reported to the palace today is also the name Qinghan, a letter from the grass, beautiful and refined, clear as water, which is also very good. ”
Shen Qinghan nodded as if she didn't understand, her eyes were full of confusion and incomprehension, she was so nervous that she couldn't think now, and her head was hot.
Shen Anyan chuckled in her heart, what she said was really nice, the words at the beginning of the grass word mean that life is like a mustard, even if it is fresh and refined, big families are absolutely unwilling to use it. However, in order to distinguish them from others, some maidservants will also take the name with the prefix cursive.
Watching this drama, the gap between the son-in-law, the concubine, and the maidservant gave birth to a child was immediately apparent. If the concubine will still be excluded, targeted or jealous by the concubine, the servant will have no good way, just like Shen Qinghan in his previous life, a lifelong slave.
