Chapter 264: Illness

Huamian hasn't been here for a long time, and there are a lot of palace people in Hejing Palace, but I think this little girl is a little familiar, but I definitely can't remember what the other party's name is.

Since she didn't know who it was, Hua Mian didn't know how to reply to her for a while, but the little girl jumped in and introduced herself: "I'm Xiaolan in Sister Rose's room..."

Hearing her mention the rose, Hua Mian seemed to be a little impressed, because the other party's name is the same as the rose flower, so when Manager Ling introduced her to the people who worked in the palace, she paid a little attention to it, and she really couldn't remember the specific appearance, only remembered that there was a smeared snow-white face.

The aesthetics of the harem really don't agree, even in the flower street, those flower girls rarely see someone smear such a thick white powder on their faces, and it feels like a slightly larger expression will shake off the powder.

And the rose girl is particularly prominent among these palace people in the harem, her face is big, and it is even more exaggerated if she is painted white, which is really in response to the face that Hua Mian saw in a novel to describe the woman's silver basin-like face.

What is the child in Miss Rose's room doing in the kitchen, if I remember correctly, Miss Rose's job is to clean the palace of Concubine Jing, and there is no intersection with the kitchen.

Seeing Hua Mian's question, Xiao Lan said, "I heard that Manager Ling said that Sister Hua Mian made a soup that can cure cough, and I want to ask my sister for some."

"You don't look like you have a cough, do you?" , The round face of the little girl in front of her is pink, which is the best age without any cosmetics to retouch.

"It's not me, it's Sister Rose, she started to cough easily around the beginning of winter two years ago, and this year it's earlier, so it's a little cold Sister started to cough, and the prescription given by the doctor in the past didn't have any effect."

“… But since I can't even use the doctor's prescription, I can't do anything as a chef, right? Hua Mian thought that she was just boiling a pot of ginger syrup, at most it was to resist a small amount of cold, and it did not have a therapeutic effect on people who were really sick.

Hearing the meaning of rejection in Hua Mian's words, Xiaolan was a little anxious, "Sister Hua Mian... I have no other way but to beg you, if this continues, Sister Rose will be sent out of the palace."

"Is it bad to leave the palace?" , Hua Mian is puzzled, isn't it just right to go home when you send it out of the palace?

Xiaojin on the side replied to Hua Mian: "People like us, if we are sent home without accumulating enough savings to support the elderly, we will be looked down upon by our families and neighbors."

"What's more, my sister is also sick, and when she goes home in poor health, she will only be told by her family......"

After listening to the words of the two, although Hua Mian still felt that the ginger syrup she made would not have any effect, she still boiled a pot for Xiaolan and told her to come and get it every day.

Seeing Xiaolan leave with a bowl of gratitude, Hua Mian decided to go to the palace before dinner time.

Hang up the waist card of the palace, and don't forget to bring the wooden card that Jia Lao gave her before going out, according to Ling Ran, in the harem, the brand of Jia Lao's imperial dining room is better than that of any palace, these words make Hua Mian more interested in Jia Lao, an old chef can have a higher status than a concubine?

"Chef Xia... I really don't need to follow? Before Hua Mian walked out of the kitchen, Xiao Jin was still asking.

"No, I'm just walking around the neighborhood"

"Sister Huamian, are you going out?"

Hua Mian was talking to Xiao Jin when she met Xiao Lan who came to return the bowl.
