Chapter 2 Deserved

There has been a large copper kettle under the corridor to prepare boiling water, and there is half a bucket of cold water next to it for mixing, and the boiling water has been changed again after being cold all morning, and now it can finally be used.

The little maids were relieved, and finally they didn't have to go to the ear room to boil water.

Miss Gu Si's basin is made of sterling silver, and there are fine patterns along the edges of the circle, which looks quite luxurious.

Hot water flushes into cold basins, some of which are not hot enough.

The little maid Cailan immediately took the boiling water they drank from the stove in the ear room and flushed it inside.

Xiangling felt that the temperature was almost there, and it was still a little hot, and after a delay when she went in, the temperature was almost the same.

Another second-class maid, Holly, carried two towels in a tray, spun them into threads from fine wool, and woven them into woolen cloth, which is said to be the fourth lady's dislike of cotton cloth being too rough and came up with it herself.

Now the fourth lady likes to wear clothes made of woolen cloth, which are light and warm, and even the socks are made of woolen cloth.

Xiangling is now wearing a pair of woolen socks rewarded by the fourth lady, which is much warmer than cloth socks.

She was holding the water, the little maid Yulan made a thick cotton curtain, Xiangling only felt that her face was hot and hot, alternating between hot and cold, her face couldn't help but itch, and after a while, her body also began to itch, but she could only endure it.

At the age of fifteen, if it weren't for something at home, she would have taken a break from women's school this winter and stayed in the boudoir to embroider a wedding dress for herself.

The sour and astringent are unbearable, but they must be endured.

Xiangling squatted down and saluted: "Say hello to the fourth lady." ”

Gu Xie Wu put on the hot clothes, with his hair like ink and green silk scattered behind his head, and sat in front of the red sandalwood dresser, on which was a glass mirror from Persia.

The dresser was full of jewelry boxes, which were in use at this time, and they were all open one by one, and the contents were rare treasures.

Pearl agate, white jade jade, crystal cat's eye, dotted emerald appliqué, red gold carved flowers, the world's treasures, everything.

Gu Xie Wu closed his eyes, drowsy, and didn't want to open his eyes.

When she first saw these things, she looked like Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden, and her eyes were straight.

But after a long time and a lot of watching, these dead things may not be as cute as the xiaolongbao on the plate.

She randomly picked a pair of white jade bracelets inlaid with gold and jade to wear, the bracelet is delicate, it is a live buckle, the middle is made of red gold, it is easy to wear, and there is a claw collar with the same set.

Accustomed to seeing dogs wearing necklaces, she instinctively resisted the collar, but in this era, it is a symbol of status.

Because she is the only concubine in the house, she is also favored by the king of Zhennan, so no matter what the princess does for her children, she has her share.

The king of Zhennan is clean and self-conscious, and the princess has been married for many years, only two concubines, the princess was born in the Xue family of the prime minister of the capital, not to mention the position of the princess of Jinzun and jade, it is the king of Zhennan who values her so much, which is how many people envy her.

Princess Xue has a total of one son and three daughters, the eldest son Gu Shi was born as the son, this year will be eighteen, the marriage has already been set by the queen of the palace, set is the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Wu'an, should be worthy of the princess of the world.

The three are the big county patron Xie Yi, the second county patron Xie Yi, and the third county patron Xie Xin.

In addition to Gu Jiewu, the fourth daughter, King Zhennan also has the only concubine, the second son born to the concubine Yin, Gu Cheng.

As the only son, King Zhennan is of course equally loved, but Gu Cheng estimated that he was taught something by the Yin family that should not be done, and he learned it at a young age, but King Zhennan bothered at all, which made King Zhennan very unaccomplished.

It may also be because Gu Xie Wu is too good at coquettishness and pets, which has led to the current situation in the house.

Except for the eldest son and eldest daughter, she is the heaviest in King Zhennan's heart, the smallest, the cutest and the most naughty brute.

Gu Xie Wu felt the heat of the hot towel wiping her face, and Xiangmei took the mutton fat balm and softened it in her hand, gently sticking it to her face.

The price of mutton fat balm is better than silver, Xiangmei is in charge of serving her makeup, and after a long time, Xiangmei's hands are like a baby's face.

Not to mention how smooth and delicate Gu Jiewu's skin is.

Gu Xie Wu combed her double flat bun, because she didn't like to have bangs, her smooth forehead was exposed, and red gold and bloodstone hair rings were worn on both sides of her bun.

The top is alizarin red embroidered magpie Dengmei, and the skirt is made of white peacock pattern cyan Shu brocade.

By the time she finished dressing up, she was already a noble girl who was not lost to the three county lords of Zhennan Wangfu.

Gu Xie Wu looked at himself in the mirror, and his heart was dressed up so gorgeously, but unfortunately who could see it!

The princess did not allow her to leave the Youlan Courtyard at will, and told her father that she was young, and she was afraid that there would be too many soldiers in and out of the house, which would disturb her.

But in fact, it is nothing more than house arrest in disguise.

Imagine how a goldfish kept in a fish tank will survive if it is released into a river full of fierce fish.

Maybe she spent the princess's belly with the heart of a villain, but how could the princess think that Rao was like this, and she still grew into a "demon king of the world".

Up and down this Youlan Courtyard, who is not obedient to her.

Her grandmother, Wyeth, relied on her milk to grow her up, and brought up her mother's relics and her share of silver.

I don't know how many later events have written about the Qing Dynasty princesses who were set aside by their grandmothers for a lifetime of loneliness, Gu Xie Wu mentioned it slightly in front of his father, and Wyeth was sent out of the inner courtyard, and she never saw it again.

A few days ago, **** learned from Xiangmei's mouth that the Zhuangzi assigned to the Wyeth family was attacked by the Yidi people, and the property was lost and people died.

Xiangmei was a little sympathetic when she said it.

Gu Xie Wu said that Wyeth was still young when she left, and she didn't remember her.

What she was thinking in her heart was that if Wyeth was still there, and Miss Gu Si's original owner was also there, then Wyeth still didn't know how to be rampant!

In short, if you don't die, you won't die.

Recently, Gu Jiewu's mind has been spent on practicing calligraphy.

Although the paper, ink, pen and inkstone are expensive, but no one in the house dares to give her Miss Gu Si a deflated, the princess heard that she used it to write and paint, although Xindao did not invite her to ask for a gentleman, why did she remember to ask for paper, ink, pen and inkstone, but still took some from the library and gave it to her.

Xiangmei had only seen these in the past, but now she held them in her hand, but she felt wonderful: "The princess really loves Miss." ”

Gu Jiewu was having breakfast, xiaolongbao with Jiang rice porridge, six plates of small pickles, pickled white radish, pickled carrots, pickled beans, pickled mustard, pickled cabbage, and sauced beans.

In these years, it is impossible to eat vegetables in the winter, only a plate of fried bean sprouts, which is still sent out in the greenhouse.

Listening to Xiangmei's words, Gu Xie Wu's expression was awe-inspiring: "I am the fourth lady of the palace, do I want some pen, ink, paper and inkstone, I will be grateful to the princess."

What you know is that you are grateful, and those who don't know think that the princess treats me badly!" )
