Chapter 340: The Inner Sheers
Neisheren is a general term for female officials, and all female officials who enter the palace, if they can't call their positions, will generally become a certain sheren.
Xiahou Ying nodded at Xiao Tao and said with a smile, "Yes, I'm the new tea waiter Lu Wanxin, your name is Xiao Tao, right?" ”
"Hmm!" Xiao Tao nodded happily and grabbed Xiahou Ying's hand, "Wanxin, it's great that you're here!" You don't know, after Sister Huihui got married out of the palace, there were only Liu Sicha and me left in the imperial tea room, and I was so busy every day that I hit the back of my head, it's good that you came! ”
Liu Xinlan really wanted to throw Xiao Tao into the teapot and boil it at this time, she had just told the new person that there was no place to use her, but Xiao Tao turned around and sold her......
Xiahou Ying glanced at Liu Xinlan without a trace, and said to Xiao Tao with a smile, "I'm a newcomer, I don't know anything, I'm afraid I won't be able to help much, so I can only help my aunt and you temporarily." ”
Hearing Xiahou Ying directly and unceremoniously call herself "aunt", Liu Xinlan couldn't help but pouted secretly, her "aunt" is not so easy to recognize!
"Oh, just look at your skills just now, I don't know how many times stronger than me, I believe you will soon be able to become a good helper for my aunt!" Xiao Tao took Xiahou Ying's hand and said happily.
Xiao Tao's enthusiasm is not pretended, although in this palace, you have to be cautious in what you say and do, and there are also people in front of you and behind your back, but now she is really looking forward to someone who can share some work for her.
"Okay, stop chatting, the morning dynasty is coming to an end, we have to hurry up and prepare." Liu Xinlan said with a cold face to Xiao Tao and Xiahou Ying.
"Yes!" Xiao Tao and Xiahou Ying owed to Liu Xinlan at the same time, and nodded in response.
Seeing Liu Xinlan turn around to make tea, Xiao Tao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"That's it, Wanxin, you just came today, so be responsible for preparing the tea set first, and when you're free tomorrow, I'll teach you to make tea." Xiao Tao smiled and said to Xiahou Ying.
"Okay." Xia Houying nodded, and went to the shelf full of tea sets on the side to take the utensils to be used today.
Although Liu Xinlan didn't say a word, she always secretly observed Xiahou Ying's every move, watching Xiahou Ying skillfully pass the tea set through the boiling water one by one, she knew that Xiahou Ying should also be a tea ceremony expert, and her evaluation of Xiahou Ying in her heart couldn't help but change.
Finally, because of the addition of Xiahou Ying's helper, the imperial tea room finally prepared refreshments before the holy queen and his party arrived at the south study.
Seeing off Liu Xinlan, who led the palace maid to deliver tea to the south study, Xiao Tao breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Oops! I'm exhausted! Xiao Tao said weakly while beating her sore arm.
Seeing Xiao Tao like this, Xiahou Ying just smiled faintly, then walked to the stove on the side and began to clean up the utensils she had just used.
"Huh? Wanxin, I see that you just washed the tea set, it seems that you are very good at making tea, is it because you are good at making tea, was you selected to enter the palace because of the good tea? Xiao Tao asked with a curious look on her face, staring at a pair of big eyes.
Listening to Xiao Tao's words, Xiahou Ying couldn't help but feel a little helpless in her heart, if she really entered the palace for this reason, then it would be fine......
"Maybe, I don't know ...... either" Xiahou Ying shook her head with a faint smile.
"Oops! I knew that you were recruited into the palace because you were good at making tea, and I should have let you make tea just now! Xiao Tao hammered her head with a look of annoyance.
