After a simple handover, Lin Xianyu successfully became a teaching grandmother in Cining Palace. The Empress Dowager ordered her to take care of the small study of Cining Palace, and there were two second-class palace maids and four women under her hands.

Two of the second-class palace maids are slightly literate, and they are responsible for sorting out books on weekdays, and the four women are responsible for rough work such as sprinkling and cleaning, drying books, etc.

The Empress Dowager's small study is located in the west side of the ear hall of the apse of Cining Palace, the area is not large, and there are only six bookshelves in total, among which the Buddhist scriptures are the mainstay, and there are many four books and five scriptures, so the work is relatively easy.

Looking at this clean and elegant study, Lin Xianyu couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. When she crossed over, she was just a second-class palace maid in Yanxi Palace, and it took her six years to jump from Yanxi Palace to Yanluan Palace and Renshou Palace, and now she has settled in Cining Palace after going around the imperial tomb.

The grade has also been upgraded from a second-class palace maid to a first-class palace, and then upgraded to a teaching grandmother, in charge of the study of Cining Palace.

If the palace maid who is over 25 years old does not want to leave the palace and has the blue eyes of the master, she can stay in the palace and be promoted to teach the grandmother. The other two types of mothers are nanny mothers and nursing mothers, who take care of the young princesses and princesses, and are usually selected from among the women under the Baoyi banner.

No matter what kind of mother, its Lu use is much higher than the palace maid, the annual silver twenty-four taels, Lu rice twenty-four hundred, the salary is four times that of the first-class palace maid, in addition, every year there are cloud satin, cloth satin, silk, cotton silk, yarn, silk each one, four dark blue cloth, one summer cloth, three catties of kapok. In terms of food, although the ingredients distributed are similar to those of the palace maids, the dining room of the teaching mothers and the dining room of the palace maids are separated, and the staffing of the cooks is the same amount.

Think about how many palace maids are in this palace? And how many grandmothers are there?

Although Lin Xianyu has not counted, there are often more than a dozen palace maids under the hands of a teaching grandmother.

Therefore, when cooking for the palace maid, the cook can only cut it casually, and the cauldron is good when cooked.

And to teach the grandmothers to cook, fry and fry, especially dedicated. One is because the cooks are sufficient, the other is to teach the grandmothers how much they have real power, and those cooks dare not offend easily, and the third is that the grandmothers have a lot of money, so they naturally give more rewards.

Lin Xianyu, who is nearly twenty-two years old, has already entered the class of teaching grandmothers.

Early in the morning, Lin Xianyu found out a copy of the Mongolian Buddhist scriptures that the Empress Dowager asked for by name, and sent it to the front hall.

The Empress Dowager has been in good condition in the past few days, and people have gained spirits, so they want to worship the Buddha. Looking at the yellowed Mongolian Buddhist scriptures, the Empress Dowager said: "If you are idle in the future, you will translate a few Buddhist scriptures for the mourning family." ”

As she spoke, the old lady couldn't help but mutter, "There are still too few Mongolian scriptures in this palace. ”

Lin Xianyu felt that he was going to become a tool man for the boss of Xiaozhuang again.

At this time, a eunuch bent down and came in to report: "The Empress Dowager, Concubine Shuhui has come to greet you." ”

The Empress Dowager laughed: "Since you served on the side of the mourning family, this girl has become more and more 'filial'!" ”

Lin Xianyu touched his nose, a little embarrassed.

Tana is over forty years old, and only the Queen Mother will call her a "girl" in this palace.

In the past few days, Tana deliberately added a thick shoulder, walked in briskly, and saluted obediently: "Tana greets the Queen Mother!" ”

After Tana made a greeting salute, she bowed solemnly again, "Last night, a little princess was born in Yonghe Palace, and Tana congratulated the Queen Mother. ”

The Empress Dowager's expression was indifferent, and she only said "um", "The mourning family is looking forward to Niu Hulu's birth." ”

In ancient times, the old people were patriarchal, of course, the main thing is that Concubine De's background is Baoyi. So the Empress Dowager didn't reward Concubine De for anything.

Tana was a heartless master, she pulled her fingers and said, "Yes, at most a month, Concubine Niu Hulu should give birth." ”

Lin Xianyu secretly thought, this should be the legendary straw bag old ten. obviously has a noble concubine's mother, and in terms of identity and bloodline, she is only slightly inferior to the crown prince Yinren, but in the later Kowloon heir, she tragically became the younger brother of the Eight Masters.

The Empress Dowager sighed: "This girl has been in the palace for many years, and the emperor has always been indifferent to her, but now she is finally happy, and it must be blessed by the Buddha." As she spoke, the old lady and her hands recited a sentence of Amitabha.

Saying that, the Empress Dowager looked at Lin Xianyu, "You go to the library to pick up a few festive materials, and send them to Yongshou Palace later." ”

Lin Xianyu hurriedly curted his knees and replied "yes".

Tana said sweetly: "With the blessing of the ancestors, the concubine must be safe for the mother and son." ”

The old man was not in good spirits, Tana accompanied her son and said sweet words before leaving, naturally, Lin Xianyu sent the former boss out of Cining Palace.

Tana took Lin Xianyu's hand affectionately, and did not shy away from everyone's eyes. Mainly because Lin Xianyu is now a teacher in the Queen Mother's Palace, and it doesn't hurt for the concubine to be a little polite to her.

Tana stuffed a bag of dim sum into Lin Xianyu's hand, "This is your favorite crystal horseshoe cake." ”

Lin Xian smiled, "Thank you, concubine." Although the special dining room of the grandmothers will also make some pastries and shortbreads, they are relatively simple and trouble-free, and the chefs who specialize in cooking for the palace people will not be able to cook such complex dim sum as crystal horseshoe cakes.

Tana said in a low voice: "The Empress Dowager is getting older and more kind, you just have to rest assured." —just...... Sister Salted Fish is afraid that she will not be able to be a concubine, and Tana can hardly hide her regret.

Lin Xian said in her heart: In these days in Cining Palace, she does feel that the temperament of the Empress Dowager is much gentler than when she was the Empress Dowager. After all, at that time, he had to deal with an unfilial dog son, and Kangxi, the grandson, was very filial to his grandmother.

Tana raised her eyes and glanced at the old high sun, "Okay, you still have to go and give a reward to the Eternal Life Palace, I won't delay your time." ”

Lin Xianyu suddenly remembered his errand, and when he saw Tana go away, he called two young and healthy eunuchs, and went to the treasury to pick up the bright and luxurious silk and selected eight horses, and then memorized the file, and went to Yongshou Palace.

Yongshou Palace is the head of the West Six Palaces, very close to Cining Palace, and Lin Xianyu arrived at his destination.

Don't look at Niu Hulu's concubine who is not favored, but as the sister of Empress Xiaozhao, the treatment in the palace is not inferior to that of the imperial concubine Tong, and the palace where she lives is also one of the best in the six palaces in the east and west.

Niu Hulu's belly, which has been almost nine months old, is already very big, and it is particularly bulging, this is the so-called "pointed belly", it is said that it is very likely to be an elder brother.

Therefore, Niu Hulu's birth has attracted the attention of several bigwigs in the palace, and this is the third time that Niu Hulu's has received a reward from the Queen Mother.

No matter how heavy his body was, Niu Hulu still asked the maid to help her get up, and bowed in the direction of Cining Palace, "Please ask Aunt Wei to convey the palace's gratitude to the empress dowager, and when the palace gives birth, she must take the little elder brother to kowtow to the ancestor to thank her." ”

It's good to be the grandmother next to the boss of Xiaozhuang, and even the concubine is polite.
