75 Gong Tu
The long journey to the palace, it is obviously a flat bluestone slab, even if it is unattended, there is an indescribable sense of shackles, Ling Makeup asked the direction of the dining room, and searched all the way.
It was in full swing, and the cook and the subordinates who were in charge of it all raised their heads to look at a young girl when they saw a young girl walk in.
Ling Xiang smiled and bowed to a fat eunuch who came to him: "Hello father-in-law, I am a palace maid newly assigned to the East Palace, and the aunts of the Shangyi Bureau instructed me and a younger sister to freshen up first, so I came to ask for some hot water." ”
She only said that Shangyi Bureau was a palace maid, so people naturally didn't dare to bully casually.
"What a handsome little lady, and her voice is sweet." The fat eunuch praised it, there are many palace maids who have been newly summoned to the East Palace recently, seeing that she has an extraordinary bearing, she dare not slack off, and pointed to the steaming corner of the big stove and said: "Hot water is boiling here all year round to supply all palaces, and my sister just goes to fetch it." ”
Ling Xiang thanked her, and the little eunuch who took care of the firewood in the back came up to help her fill the water, and said with a smile: "My sister was born like a fairy, so she must be assigned to the top of the list, right?" ”
Ling Xiang didn't say yes, nor did he say no, and there were a few people next to him who asked what his name was and where he was from.
She was a person who could mix well in the market, so she replied with a smile, and in a blink of an eye she saw a plate of yellow and clear pastries resting on the lid of a pot on the left, and she didn't move.
If you want to say that you can endure it, but she just deliberately revealed this meaning, the weather is cold, and the people of the Shangyi Bureau heard that it is a crime, and it is impossible to settle it well, I heard that palace women like them have only seven and five spoonfuls of white rice, ten taels of fresh vegetables at any time, and three coins of black salt, and the oil star may not be able to see it. Of course, it is impossible to have monthly money, and it is not cost-effective to hurt your body by taking care of your face.
The little eunuch who lit the fire saw her staring at the pastry. also knew the meaning, and lowered his voice and said: "It is for the Hanzhang Hall to keep vigil to satisfy hunger, although the errands often do not eat, but we don't dare to take it at will, my sister wants to ask for some food, it is better to ask Grandpa Wu." ”
As he spoke, he secretly pointed back and snorted.
Ling makeup knows. He thanked the little eunuch with a smile and walked to the back patio.
There are many long tables here, and there are no less than 100 large and small copper pots on them. There were several little eunuchs who filled it with charcoal fires, steaming everywhere, and there were all kinds of meat smells in it, and people's stomachs were growling.
A tall young eunuch dressed in a pipe belt costume was directing: "Hurry up and send it everywhere." Don't forget to have the first copy from Mr. Shangguan. The hemp in the house of Manager He and Manager Sun was a little slippery...... Little Bunny! Sauce sauce! When I look back, Mr. Sun will eat and hang up for my grandfather, and you will be the leader! ”
Ling Xiang estimated that this was Gonggong Wu, and hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute.
Eunuch Song was stunned when he saw a beautiful woman in a plain cotton skirt suddenly appear, and when he looked at her appearance, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, and asked with a pleasant face: "Which palace is the girl?" What's the errand? ”
"The slave family is a new palace maid." Ling Xuan decided to vaguely get something to eat first, "The trip was delayed on the way." It only arrived at night, and it was assigned to the Shanggong Bureau in the morning. Before I could catch up with the meal, several sisters were very hungry, so they asked me to bring hot water, and they wanted to ask for some food to go back by the way, and they also hoped that Gonggong Wu would help. ”
After hearing this, Eunuch Wu frowned, and said: "It's going to lunch soon, no, I'm sending pots to the palaces, and it's too late for the Shang Palace Bureau, just enter the palace to abide by the rules, how can there be a reason to go to the dining room to ask for something to eat directly, and it's not the master!" ”
This person is dignified, and the beauty does not play a role in the eunuch, fortunately, Ling Makeup knows some doorways in the palace, so he smiled and said: "Gonggong Wu is convenient, only this once, not an example, if the brothers in the dining room want to buy some clothes, shoes and socks, my sisters can also serve." ”
There are regulations on the outside of the clothes and ornaments in the palace, and there are two sets of inner servants in a season, but the clothes inside are all purchased by themselves, and the eunuchs generally look for palace maids to do it, so she is also to the point.
Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, Eunuch Wu couldn't be grinded, and besides, getting some food was a simple matter for him, he thought about it, and instructed the little eunuch on the side: "Is there still hot food that was withdrawn from the palace bureaus in the morning?" ”
The little eunuch saw that Ling Makeup was born well and was willing to help, so he said: "It's too much, the aunts of the various bureaus are urging tightly, and the sisters often can't eat enough, but there is a lot left, and when they turn around, they fill the water tank, and the kid leads this sister to get it." ”
Ling Xiang thanked Gonggong Wu and turned around to leave.
Eunuch Wu suddenly asked, "What is the use of carrying hot water?" ”
Ling Xiang replied that it was bathing and changing.
Eunuch Wu thought for a while, and said to the little eunuch: "Those with thin arms and thin legs, I mentioned the next trip, but I am afraid that the last trip will be cold, you help carry a bucket over, in the cold weather, don't pay attention to it, just wash it, if you feel the weather, it's not a play, and your life will be explained." ”
Ling Xiang didn't expect that he was still a good person, and thanked him again and again.
Eunuch Wu smiled slightly, waved her hand and told her to go quickly.
Ling Xiang followed the little eunuch to the big kitchen, the little eunuch thought she was crowded, so she made several big buns and heated them in the pot a little, took the paper wrap and handed it over: "Sister, where is your surname?" In the future, they will get married in the palace and help each other. ”
Saying that, he helped her fetch another bucket of water, greeted the little eunuch who burned the fire, lifted the bucket from before, and led the way forward: "Although you eat a cushion for your stomach first, I know that everyone who just came in has to eat Ma Wei, and often deducts food to add to it, and Manager He will take care of this matter, and it will be fine in the future." ”
Ling Xiang was grateful, and hurriedly took a bite of one, although it was only filled with cabbage and tofu, he felt that the taste was excellent: "The director of Zichen Palace is the manager of He?" ”
"Not really! Manager He and Manager Sun are the first old men in front of the prince, there is no female master in our palace, who else can there be if they are not in charge? The dining room and treasury are in charge of Mr. He, and some of them are in charge of Mr. Sun's cooking, and the affairs of the foreign court are handled by Mr. Shangguan. ”
Ling Xiang happened to inquire with him about the news of the East Palace, and knew that after the Western Expeditionary Army entered the palace this time, the queen ordered to kill many people in the old palace, especially in the East Palace, the first emperor did not have the crown prince in his hands, and it was a palace that had been locked for many years, but a few people who sprinkled it were now considered newcomers.
Most of the heads and brains of the first game of the six palaces are from the palace of King Zhao, and in addition, they are newly recruited into the palace, so the rules must be a little chaotic, and the head of Zichen Palace, He Basi, and Sun Chuli are vigorously rectifying.
The palace maids and eunuchs are new to one place, so they naturally make friends with fellow villagers or speculators everywhere, and they are united in the same breath and take care of them.
Although it was a crime, in the end, it was a good time to make a mess, and Ling Xiang asked the name of the little eunuch again.
"My name is Wang Shunfa, a native of Hebei, and I was in the palace when I was young." The little eunuch walked quickly with a bucket, "Sister will go to the dining room to find me if she has something, our father-in-law Wu is from the Zhao Palace, follow him right, look at it is a knife-mouthed tofu heart......"
As he spoke, Ling Xiang had already stuffed two buns into his stomach, and suddenly there was heating.
Although the palace people she met on the road also stared at her strangely, everyone went their own way, and no one asked her.
Wang Shunfa saw that he was about to go to the realm of the Shanggong Bureau, and said with a smile: "My sister was born with such a color, be careful that someone is plotting." ”
Ling Makeup was strange, "They are all palace women, what does it have to do with their appearance?" ”
Wang Shunfa said: "My sister hasn't seen the prince yet, right?" How satisfying is that, so I don't need to be verbose, the sisters of the same age in the palace, I'm afraid they all have a thought in their hearts? There were a few deliberate collisions in front of him, but Guangningwei clicked with a knife, and the people below us knew that they had died unjustly, and they didn't know what was going on. ”
Ling Xiang remembered the appearance of the prince and said, "Although it is not strange to get together, people should always recognize their position." ”
There is a sentence that she didn't say, man, what's the point, the more glamorous, the more sad it is for women.
Wang Shunfa sent Ling makeup, and Rong Cailing fell asleep on the kang with cotton pads outside the bathroom.
There is no stove here, although it is much warmer than outside, after all, it will freeze the bad guys, Ling Xiang shook Cai Ling awake, and handed over the hot bun that was kicked in his arms.
Cai Ling's face was not good, but when she saw the buns, she forgot to lose her temper, so she hurriedly took it and chewed it up.
Wang Shunfa replaced a bucket of water into the bucket inside, and advised: "Sisters, just wipe it, and I'll go back." ”
Ling Xiang thanked him again, and Wang Shunfa disappeared at the door with the barrel.
Cai Ling ate her mouth full, and she was relieved to see Ling Makeup close the door.
After so many days of gaining some freedom, she couldn't help it, and hummed: "You are really, a poor servant is also so attentive, and only carries two buckets of water, how to wash it?" ”
Ling Makeup had already thought about it: "I'll take a spoon and scoop water for my sister to wash her hair and take a bath, and scoop it up and flush a bucket to clean it." ”
Cai Ling looked at the buns in her hand: "You wash them first, I won't be able to finish several buns for a while...... Why don't you get some tea? ”
Cai Ling hasn't gotten rid of the princess's style, it's impossible to ask her to help her wash herself, Ling Makeup is not with her general knowledge, pretending not to hear her talk, quickly carrying a bucket inside, looking for a bamboo spoon and some fragrant pancreas scattered in the corner with hot water and pinching it into a big ball, open the hair and lean over a spoonful of water, it will be wet, and then wipe the pancreas and quickly rub it clean, take off the coat, turn it out with the inside side to dry the hair, hold it with a sandalwood hairpin, and start to take a bath.
I kept hearing the commotion inside, and after Cai Ling finished eating the buns, she couldn't help but go to the door to see.
But when he saw that Ling's white jade cream-like skin was smeared with pancreas, he quickly rubbed it clean, and scooped water into his body spoonful by spoonful.
Cai Ling didn't know what psychology was, and sneered: "I can't see it, my sister-in-law is quite used to the life of a palace maid." ”
Ling Xiang's subordinates didn't stop, and only said, "If you don't do it again, I'm afraid that the water will be cold, can you wash it?" ”
She rinsed it off and changed into a palace maid's outfit, rolled up her sleeves and said, "I still have a small half bucket of water left here, plus your bucket, it should be enough to wash." ”
Falling into this field, no matter how unwilling she was, Cai Ling couldn't stand the smell on her body, so she was washed by Ling Makeup, and she also changed into a palace maid costume. (To be continued.) )
