In the blink of an eye, the master and servant came to the kitchen.

"This is the kitchen of your palace?" Xiao Man looked at it, and it made her want to cry.

The kitchen is divided into 4 rooms side by side, the first room is placed on the left is fresh and unrecognizable young leaves and petals, a row of Android in the middle, it is estimated that the highest is 30 cm, there are puff pads on both sides of the table, and there are rows of terracotta pots on the right clip.

"You eat flower petals and leaves?" Shioman felt like she was going crazy with insistence.

"Of course not."

Fortunately, it's not eaten by people, Xiaoman thought to himself.

"These petals are for a noble person like the prince. Only the prince and Xiang Gongzi can eat it in our house. ”

The petals of feelings are really perverted for two men to eat. I heard that Lin Daiyu buried flowers, but I never heard of the two old men eating flowers, which is too strange.

"Where's the crockpot on the right?"

"That's what we usually eat, and if you pickle it with salt, you can't taste the grass taste of the leaves themselves." It's uncomfortable to have a look on our face that we're not very smart here. The one I usually eat is called pickles, but how did it turn to become a dish here? Give yourself a moment of silence for three seconds, God, stop making a fuss, I want to go home, I'm going to be driven crazy here.

Xiaoman really couldn't bear to open the crockpot and look at it, for fear of seeing something white and fat that shouldn't be seen.

Turn around and come to the second room. The layout is the same as the first one. It's just that the second room on the left is fresh chickens, ducks and fish to be slaughtered, and the crockpot on the right is full of meat. The beams of the house were covered with flesh. The flies shuttled back and forth, buzzing and stirring people's brains, and the bloody board on the table that had just been killed and had not had time to wipe it, and the mildew smell produced under the high temperature, the whole room was a little disgusting and disgusting.

The one further inside was relatively clean, with a row of small tables on the left and a ...... on the right. It's a stove bar, a row of stone pots that are up to the chest.

In the last room, on the left is the stove that was just burned, and on the right is a variety of barbecue grills. Certainly not the modern kind of barbecue. That is, the bottom is burned wood, and the two iron rods above should be placed on the barbecue food. Well, that's it. Nope.

There is a well on the left side of the courtyard, which is supposed to be used to draw water. An iron bucket was set aside. In the middle are several stone basins, which are estimated to be used to wash vegetables and meat. The one on the far right is probably the granary, chopped on one side with a straw mat, and a bamboo faucet-like thing made of bamboo that can't be named is inserted in it. When the plug is removed, the rice flows out, and when it is enough, it is plugged again. It's a pretty clever design.

Oh, and if I had to say that I forgot to say anything, I forgot to say the seasoning! There are two kinds of seasonings, one salt and one sugar. They were all placed in a clay pot in the first room.

It's gone, there's nothing left. It's true.

Xiao Man asked again uncertainly, and when she saw Shan'er's eyes flickering, a sense of powerlessness suddenly came to her heart, and she raised her feet and left the kitchen. My heart is cold.

"San'er, don't you have star anise cinnamon or anything like that?"

"Miss, are you sick? What do you want these herbs for? ”

"Medicine?" It's good to have, it's good to have. It doesn't matter if he's a medicine or not.

When the master and servant returned, they cleared the yard and sat down at the table. Xiaoman pawned some gold and silver jewelry and exchanged it for some money. Let him buy some small clay pots, bowl racks, and draw a prototype of a pot for Shan'er to find a blacksmith to make an iron pot.

Shan'er went out to run errands with an excited face.

Xiao Man looked at the ear room in front of him, and remembered the kitchen he had just got, and inexplicably wanted to know what the name of the person who invented the iron pot in the Song Dynasty was. Hey, the more I talk about it, the more I want to go home.

ps, do you think I'm going to be like the heroines in other novels, and the iron pot will be taken out and sold for money? nonono！ Like, I'll give you an iron pot. Ahem, I won't tell you that I didn't think of selling it for money.

Beds in ancient times were not big beds, and the place where I lived was no exception. The ancients paid attention to the cultivation of qi, saying that there are so many qi in people, and when the place to sleep is large, the qi in the human body will spread, and it is easy to die. I think this last half of the sentence is still reliable, indeed, the place is too big, I don't know who stabbed you, and you will die.

However, for a little fairy like me who is used to living in a high bed and soft pillows, this kind of life really makes me miserable.

You know, there are only two cotton mattresses on the board, and it's not particularly thick! In the summer, it is even necessary to cover the quilt, not to mention the bed that is estimated to be one meter wide at most, and the top, bottom, left and right are all covered with veils.

Coupled with the hot weather, it feels like buns in a steamer, uncomfortable!

The scariest thing is to sleep in the middle of the night, insects may still crawl on you, although there will be some lime powder and other insects around, but there are always some brave people who occasionally climb up.

Well, you can't sleep, always light a candle at night, otherwise it's dark, and you'll always be afraid.

Candle! Well, candles! Know that moths fight fires? It doesn't matter if you're one, what about a group. Later, I blocked the window with a veil, and when I lit it at night, the veil was crawling with all kinds of insects, and I got goosebumps in disgust.

The point is, I seem to be the only one who finds such a life miserable. If there are no bugs in their eyes, it is probably a highly poisonous place.

I really can't stand it, so I asked Shan'er to transplant the wormwood from the mountain into the yard so that the situation would be better. Wormwood is originally insect repellent and mosquito repellent, and planting a yard naturally has fewer snakes, insects, rats and ants.

I knitted a big futon, anyway, it's summer, I picked up a veil with a bamboo pole, and slept in it like this.

What Xiao Man didn't know was that there were always some masters sitting on the wall at night watching the strange situation in the yard.

Xiaoman is also getting thinner and thinner, first, the food is really unpalatable, and then he feels unclean, and there are not many snacks in his schoolbag, so he basically eats fruit every day and eats a full stomach.

Such days lasted for seven days, and on the morning of the seventh day, Shan'er took the iron pot, tilted her head and asked Xiaoman, "Miss, this self-defense tool is not bad, so that you can not only see the outside situation, but also protect your head, and you can also use it as an umbrella when it rains." ”

Looking at the iron pot in Shan'er's hand, Xiaoman was very happy, and brought fresh meat and grain from the kitchen, which was ground into noodles and wrapped into flower rolls with sugar; The fat meat got out of the pot and put the oil into the crockpot, and then overtook the egg cabbage sum that he liked very much, that is, scrambled eggs with green onions, added salt and pepper noodles, and made a little thirteen spices, that is, peppercorns and peppers were ground into powder and put into the jar, and then fried the pot and wrapped the meat, first fried the meat, then poured the juice, boiled the chicken soup in a casserole with boiling medicine, and specially made a pimple soup for Shan'er, because Shan'er inadvertently mentioned the batter that the emperor ate a few days ago, which was very delicious and looked yearning.

Meimei's two dishes and one soup, plus a flower roll, and Shan'er's pimple soup. The master and servant ate happily.

The two of them fell asleep in the courtyard in a daze after eating, but they didn't know that the leftover leftovers in the kitchen were eaten clean by a master.

It is said that the day in June is like a child's face, and this sentence is really true! The sun was still shining during the day, but who would have thought that it would rain heavily in the middle of the night, which would make the sleeping people feel cold all of a sudden......

"Ah Qiu!" Xiaoman, who had just changed into clean clothes, sneezed.

"Miss, drink some ginger soup and warm up," Shan'er handed over the bowl, "Miss...... Small...... Sister. ”

Shan'er's feeling of-holding if she didn't say anything made Xiaoman feel uncomfortable, "What's the matter, hurry up, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be constipated." ”

"Miss, Shan'er thinks Miss is very different from before......"

"Huh...?"

Nonsense, of course it's different, I'm not the original owner at all!

Xiaoman coughed awkwardly, not knowing how to answer.

"Isn't that bad?"

"Of course, the previous young lady was polite, but she was too polite but felt a little cowardly, but she looked at the gold and silver jewelry around her more than life, and now the young lady is smart and lively, eccentric, and has a lot of ghost ideas, and there are many good ways that slaves and maids don't know, and they will cook such delicious meals...... Moreover, although Miss used to be good to slaves and maids, I always felt that I was guarding against slaves and maids, but now Miss is different, and sometimes I am moved to cry. ......" said that, and looked at Xiaoman with tears in his eyes.

"Stop...... If you shed tears, you will be put on a hunger strike tomorrow...... Believe it or not...... "Xiaoman is the heart of tofu."

"Miss is the best." Shan'er took the empty bowl, "You said that this parrot has been gone for several days, why don't you see the prince come to the door, the parrot used to rely on the prince to pamper her, and she bullied us a lot, why hasn't it been ...... seven or eight days this time?"

"Parrots?" Xiaoman suddenly felt that this little girl's mouth was poisonous enough. But she likes to be called that. It feels like going back to college and talking to your girlfriends. "Shan'er, you've learned badly."

"Miss, you're bullying people again." The two of them were giggling together.

"Shan'er, tell me about the situation in the house again, I don't remember anything you know, if I meet someone who doesn't dare to touch, I'll be miserable~"

"Miss, are you finally interested in the prince?"

"...... "Anyway, do you want to be crooked, I'm just adapting to life at home."

"Miss, you used to be too gentle and didn't fight for anything, now you can figure it out, Shan'er is really happy for you, you also know that the world in this house is the world of the prince, with your appearance and talent, the prince will definitely be haunted by you."

"Hit ...... Stay ......, stop, tell me about the real situation, don't talk useless. Xiaoman suddenly regretted that she had used Shan'er to be so unobtrusive.

Shan'er thought that the young lady was shy, squinted and laughed, and her face was the kind of look I knew, and I promised not to say it.

Xiaoman felt that he really didn't know where to start getting angry.

"The biggest thing in the palace is the prince, then the concubines, and then the subordinates, and there are no elders in the palace."

"Huh...? Not bad! ”

"There are more than ten concubines in total, there are the emperor's last time, the colleagues gave them, and the rich businessmen gave it to him in order to tie up with the prince, day after day, day after night, the number is quite a lot, but miss, don't worry, the prince just keeps them as pets, basically doesn't meet them,........." Occasionally, one or two concubines were summoned...... Waiting for ......" the more you talk, the quieter it becomes.

Glancing at Xiaoman, seeing that he didn't respond, he stubbornly continued, "The parrot last time was one of them, because she was brought by Xiang Gongzi from the house, so she was favored." ”

"Xiang Gongzi? Who is it? ”

"This son, whose full name is Xiang Yunlu, is the most important person in the prince, and his status in the palace is second only to the prince, and his medical skills are also very good, which is what doctor you said last time, he must be worthy of the title of doctor."

Seeing the little girl's look, Xiaoman was embarrassed to interrupt her.
