In the middle of summer, there is always a lot of heat and boredom, the scorching sun is rising, the clothes that have just been changed will soon be soaked, the heat is emitted from the inside out, even the Bodhi leaves outside the hall are listlessly drooping, there is a shade under the tree, the scorching white light through the leaves falls speckled traces, under the tree lies a pure white cat, is lazily stretching the waist.

Ding Bao squinted his eyes and squatted under the eaves, his fair face had been baked red by the sun, his ears were also red, and a line with clear marks had appeared on his neck.

Behind him is a noisy kitchen, the kitchen is literally a stove, a little close to the heat wave, sweating like rain, as if in a steamer, even breathing is extremely difficult.

Someone behind him shouted.

"Ding Bao, come here to help!"

Ding Bao yawned sleepily, stood up helplessly, rolled up his long sleeves and walked in, without taking two steps, his body was already drenched in sweat.

She gasped and stood up to the head chef and said listlessly.

"Here we are."

The head chef is fat and red, his head is like an onion, his whole body is steaming, the sweat beads on his head can't be wiped clean, there are several layers of meat stacked on his neck, and when he speaks, the folds on his face are shaking.

"You girl is lazy! Come here, tidy up the dishes, and send them to the queen later. ”

Ding Bao nodded again, took the dish from the chef's hand, turned around and walked out.

"By the way, Patsy is sick, you help her take care of His Royal Highness at night."

Ding Bao frowned.

After a while, she realized that she was from a good background, and her family sent her into the palace to serve the prince.

"Okay."

She replied slowly, and the head chef looked at her and wrinkled his eyebrows dissatisfied.

When Ding Bao left, he took off his hat and chatted with the people on the side.

"Good girl, how can you fall like this."

"When I first entered the palace, I was really lively and cute, but unfortunately when I fell, my brain seemed to be broken, and I was slow to do anything, and sometimes she shouldn't shout at her so much."

The chef lit a cigarette and shook his head regretfully.

"There are more girls like this, so let's do our job."

Ding Bao naturally couldn't hear the gossip behind others.

Putting the plate on the silver plate, waiting for the meal to start, she slowly squatted under the tree again, the wide skirt was scattered on the ground at will, and the white cat lay beside her to sleep, one person and one cat, lazy.

After that, a girl dressed exactly like Ding Bao would come over and bend down to look at Ding Bao with dissatisfaction on her face.

"Why are you here, everyone can't find you, don't you know that it's almost dinner time? We're all tired because of you. ”

Ding Bao raised his head, looked at her, and then slowly stood up, staring at each other listlessly with a pair of black eyes, and his voice was lazy.

"What you did was what you should do, and it has something to do with me?"

The other party was choked by Ding Bao, his face was a little unbearable, and he sneered.

"The eldest lady is different, she deserves to be tired and tired of our slaves, and she can't let the eldest lady be tired!"

The girl was yin and yang, Ding Bao's face was flat, and he nodded noncommittally.

"If you know, it's good."

After speaking, she got up and left, leaving the people behind her to grit their teeth, staring at her back and scolding in her heart.

The maids in the palace are also divided into three, six, nine and so on.

The third-class maid has a good background, and when she enters the palace, she can directly stay with the king and queen to take care of it.

The sixth-class maid came from an average background, and she entered the palace to do some cleaning work for the princess and prince.

The worst is the ninth-class maids, their daily task is to help with chores in various halls, for example, what Ding Bao is doing now, serving dishes and delivering food, which is the work of ninth-class maids.

Ding Bao was born from a good background, his biological father was a big farmer in the old days, and he was given the title of baron after the unification of the country, although he was not related to the imperial royal family, but he was the most respected person in the local area, and was even invited to the wedding of the eldest prince.

Therefore, when Ding Bao first entered the palace, he was assigned to the second prince to take care of him, and this "close" contains a lot of meanings.

It's a pity that the second prince is the prince with the lowest sense of existence in the empire, and no one has ever seen the true face of the second prince for more than ten years, and there are many rumors about him.

Some people say that the second prince actually died a long time ago, but the queen was delirious after losing her beloved son, and still believed that her child was still alive, and the king kept his palace for the sake of his beloved wife.

It is also said that the second prince was a long-haired monster, and the king locked him in the palace and ordered him to never come out.

There are rumors, but it is a fact that the second prince never showed up.

Ding Bao didn't want to serve the second prince, since she entered the palace, she has been procrastinating and lazy, many people don't like her, and the queen doesn't like her, but because of the baron's face, she can only continue to stay in the palace.

And then what happened was very happy.

Ding Bao, who was lazy and slippery, fell and broke his head, and when he woke up again, he changed.

Lazy is as lazy as ever, but people don't have the same water spirit as before, their movements are slow, and their reactions are even slower, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that Ding Bao is stupid.

Of course, people with slow brain reactions can't continue to serve the prince, so Ding Bao moved from the prince's palace to a small room next to the kitchen, and his main job has changed from taking care of the prince to helping the chef.

The treatment plummeted, and Ding Bao became more and more lazy.

Now no one can get used to her, and anyone can come and laugh at her.

Anyway, her brain is slow to react, and she won't complain.

This is the second month of Ding Baolai's back kitchen.

Those ninth-class maids came to call her for help again, Ding Bao followed, the side dish room was ventilated on all sides, the bamboo curtains were hung on both sides, and the whole room exuded a faint fragrance of vegetables.

As soon as he arrived at the door, the chief servant shouted at Ding Bao.

"Come here, cover all these dishes with a silver cover, and serve them on a silver platter."

Ding Bao glanced at her, walked in without saying a word as usual, and then picked a few items from a large table of sumptuous meals and placed them on a silver plate.

"Why are you picking this? How many times have I told you, you don't have to do the side dishes! ”

When the chief servant saw her picking vegetables at will, his face sank for a moment, and he reprimanded her in an unkind tone.

Ding Bao raised his eyes, glanced at her coldly, and then picked up the plate expressionlessly, raised his feet and walked out.

"Where are you going?!"

The chief servant was angry, put down the things in his hand and blocked them directly in front of Ding Bao, and swept her up and down with his eyes.

"Can't you understand people, stupid girl!"

Ding Bao knew that the original owner's brain had been broken by a tendon, so he spoke without hindrance.

"You're squirting, stay away from me, it's the prince's meal."
