In the spring of the forty-second year of Kangxi, the capital, the backyard of the Hubu Shilang Mansion.

When I opened my eyes, there was already a light in the outhouse, and my body was too sour to move, and I opened my mouth to shout, "Ailian." The maidservant girl in the emerald green spring jacket with flowers came in and said with a smile: "Miss, you are awake, someone from the compound has called for dinner." As he spoke, four or five girls came in, lit the lamps, and waited for the dressed. I was dizzy and sat on the bed with my body bent, and Ai Lian stood beside me with a rhinoceros horn comb to curl my hair. One girl brought me a red hairpin earring in a brocade box, and the other half-knelt on the pedal and held a mercury mirror. I glanced at the Western clock in the closet, it was already past six o'clock, and asked, "Is my brother back?" ”

Ai Lian combed my "little two hairs", inserted a thin double butterfly golden hairpin, and said: "Uncle passed the word out of the palace, saying that Long Live Lord suddenly wants to ask the fourth elder brother about his homework, and the long story is short, so I told the family not to wait." I was silent, got up and hung my feet on the side of the bed, and the clever girl waited for me to put on my shoes. He changed into a long skirt with a light red placket, washed his face, and walked out of the gate along the verandah.

I walked along the stone path for a quarter of an hour, turned the fake stone, entered the hugging building, went out through the back door, and then turned into the compound. A grandmother came to meet me, I took the shoulder casually and asked, "Is Eniang here?" Mama replied: "Madame is rheumatist, and she doesn't want to eat at night, so she asked the old lady to go back to the east courtyard to sleep." I said to Ailian: "You send someone to ask if Yan is serious." Ai Lian answered, took my shoulder and put it on her arm. I followed my grandmother into the house, Ai Lian and other girls stayed outside, and when I got to the bottom of the steps, I saw my father's little maid waiting with his head down, and I was overjoyed, and I lifted my skirt and ran in, and said with a smile: "Ama, Ama..."

In the screen, Wanyan Luo cha reprimanded: "What kind of system is it to shout in front of the old lady." ”

I grabbed Yan Luocha's arm, arched into his arms, and said coquettishly: "Amma, you haven't been back for half a month, I miss you." Luo Cha poked his index finger on my forehead and said, "You don't know when I don't know, I'm not in the house, and no one dares to let you out of the house, so I remembered that I'm Amma." I flattered, "How so?" Then I will never go out tomorrow, and I will keep it and play with Amma in the house. The old lady leaned on the soft couch and said with a smile: "Look at your father and daughter talking and laughing, and the house will be alive." ”

Ama said: "It's serious for you to accompany the old lady a lot." He sighed again and said, "You're going to enter the palace draft next month, and you're still so naughty, what can you do when you get to the palace?" ”

When it comes to entering the palace draft, I have one head and two big. Originally, I crossed over, a big mansion, a big house, a girl and a slave, delicious food and drink, and I didn't plan to wear it back. I don't want to have a good life after only four or five years, so I want to enter the palace for the draft, the key is that the current saint Kangxi the Great is already forty or fifty years old, and he can only be regarded as half an old, middle-aged and young man who can only be regarded as old and middle-aged when he dies, and he feels congested when he thinks about it.

I pouted and whispered, "I don't want to enter the palace, I just want to stay by Amma's side for the rest of my life." Banzai is older than Amma, and I don't want to. The old lady shouted: "It is a grace and an honor to serve the master, blame you Ama is too accustomed to you, so you have the problem of not being afraid of heaven and earth." In the future, you are not allowed to say this again, and when it reaches the ears of the master, your father will be embarrassed in the officialdom. ”

Amma patted me on the shoulder and whispered in my ear, "Amma will find a way to dredge it again." After speaking, he laughed loudly: "The old lady is also hungry, let's have dinner." When the maidservants heard this, a stack of voices spread out.
