"I do my best."

"You go down and get ready, I've asked Dongxue to prepare things for you, and she will help you."

Back at the Begonia Courtyard, Dong Xue came in with a bag after a while, and took out a set of clothes from it, Meng Xiaoran looked at it and nodded, this Shen Qian thought really thoughtfully, this dress looked like it was worn by children from poor families.

Meng Xiaoran changed her clothes, and changed into the clothes sent by Dongxue from the inside out, Dongxue spread her hair and combed her hair in a hairstyle that girls from small families would comb now, which was very simple, but it was also cute.

She looked at herself in the mirror, she was already in her twenties and still combed such double rings, she was really uncomfortable, but she looked very delicate, but it was not against the harmony, if she was a seventeen-year-old peasant girl Xia Ruhua, no one should doubt it.

At this time, Dongxue handed her the burden, "This is what Childe asked me to prepare for the girl, there are some changes of clothes inside, and there are hidden pockets on the inside of the clothes, and some silver coins are hidden in them for the girl to use." ”

Meng Xiaoran nodded, took the burden, and after a while, there was a little noise outside, Dongxue immediately went out, and after a while, he walked in and said to Meng Xiaoran: "Girl, people are coming, you can follow." ”

Meng Xiaoran nodded, put the burden on his back and walked out, there was a man standing outside, she had never seen it, the man took Meng Xiaoran out quietly from the small door, there was a carriage parked outside the small door, Meng Xiaoran got into the carriage, the man was driving outside, after about half an hour, the carriage stopped, and the man outside said to the inside: "Girl, it's here." ”

Ya Pozi took twenty girls to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and all the girls outside the side door were shocked by the grandeur here, Meng Xiaoran was no exception, although she lived in the Shen family for half a year, she had never stepped out of Shen Qian's courtyard for half a step, so she didn't know what the big family in ancient times was like.

Now they are just standing at the side door and waiting, it is already so magnificent, she can't imagine how luxurious this is if the main gate is, she heard that this prime minister is the brother of the queen of the dynasty, sure enough, the royal relatives are different, just like those powerful people in the previous life, they are unimaginable ordinary people.

Not surprisingly, Meng Xiaoran was picked, and Mother Wang, who came to pick people, looked at her with a meaningful smile and made her understand that this Mother Wang should be the person Shen Qian bought.

In the end, she was assigned to the big kitchen, she suddenly remembered that a few days ago Shen Qian suddenly asked her what she was good at, she thought about it carefully, she learned a foreign language, and she didn't have any skills at all, if she really did, it was the skill of cooking, it seemed that Shen Qian also took this into account, so he arranged her here.

After entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, everything began, and she secretly cheered herself up in her heart, hoping that everything would go well.

The maids bought this time were all in charge of chores, and there was no shortage of people from the masters of each yard, so the ten of them were assigned to various miscellaneous rooms.

The housekeeper Wang's mother sent them to various places, and finally took Meng Xiaoran to the big kitchen, everyone stopped their work when they saw her, and a woman who looked like the housekeeper's mother came over and said with a smile: "Mother Wang, why did you come to the big kitchen today, but what are the instructions from the lady?" ”

Mother Wang smiled and said: "No, a few days ago, Mrs. said that the big kitchen was short of manpower, so let me go out and buy a few girls to come in, no, I bought some today, and picked the best one for you to send over." ”

When everyone heard this, they raised their eyes to look at the girl standing next to Wang's mother, her head was slightly lowered, but she could vaguely see that she was very good-looking, and then Wang's mother turned her head to look at her and said: "Ruhua, this is the housekeeper mother of the big kitchen, Mother Li, you will do things here in the future, you have to listen to Mother Li's words, you know?" ”

Meng Xiaoran raised his head, and everyone secretly gasped, this girl was born so beautiful! Even better than the eldest lady in their house, you must know that their eldest lady is the first beauty in the famous capital, everyone secretly sighed, envy and jealousy at the same time faintly a little schadenfreude, this is like a flower as its name, it is really beautiful like a flower, but who knows how long it can live?

"Mother Li, hello, my name is Ruhua, and I will ask Mother Li to teach Ruhua more in the future." The melodious voice pulled back everyone's thoughts, and Li's mother also came back to her senses, immediately nodded with a smile, stepped forward and took her hand and said, "Good boy, this will be your home in the future, there are many things in the big kitchen, you have to help your mother more." ”

Meng Xiaoran immediately nodded and said, "I know, Mother Li, Ruhua must study hard, get started as soon as possible, and share the worries of Mother Li and all the brothers and sisters." ”

At this time, the big kitchen was naturally peaceful, but Meng Xiaoran knew that all this was just the beginning, and people's hearts were unpredictable, especially such princes and nobles, there were naturally more things in the house, and she must be more careful.

There are not many things in the big kitchen on weekdays, every day there is a mother who is responsible for buying to buy vegetables back, and then everyone performs their duties, choosing vegetables, washing vegetables, cooking, and dividing vegetables.

Throughout the day, Meng Xiaoran didn't stop, and she just hurriedly ate some leftovers at noon, the dishes in the Prime Minister's Mansion seemed to never be washed, she looked at the steady stream of dishes in front of her, and sighed secretly in her heart, sure enough, in a new environment, newcomers always have to experience a difficult time of being squeezed, the difference is that she is now doing the lowest job, and it is harder.

At night, when she was finally done, her waist could no longer straighten up, so she held on to her aching waist and followed the people to the backyard.

At this time, a little girl came over, approached her and said: "Ruhua, Mother Li asked me to tell you, you will be in the same room with me in the future, my house just happened to be vacant, my name is Hu Xiaocui, everyone calls me Xiaocui." ”

Meng Xiaoran glanced at her, she was a very cute and agile little girl, she nodded at Xiaocui, carried the burden she brought and followed into the courtyard where the people lived, and only after listening to Xiaocui's introduction did she know that the courtyard where the people in the back kitchen lived was the north courtyard, and she suddenly realized now that Shen Qian arranged for her to consider this layer in the big kitchen.

Entering the room, Xiaocui lit the oil lamp, Meng Xiaoran looked around, the room was very simple, there were two beds relatively placed, a simple floral quilt, a table in the middle, and a simple dresser, which should be used for them to make up.

At this time, Xiaocui pointed to the bed on the right hand and said, "You can sleep on that bed." Then he turned around and muttered in a low voice, "Anyway, Sister Wan'er hasn't been gone for long." ”

"Who is Sister Wan'er?"
