Chapter 97 Cannon Fodder Counterattack 7
"An Yanbing, from today onwards you will follow me." The one who spoke was a maidservant in a pink dress who looked sixteen or seventeen years old, her name was Cui Xia.

"Okay." An Yan smiled lightly, she didn't ask the reason, since she came here, she didn't have a problem with who or what she was doing.

Cui Xia has a cold temper, and she is not very enthusiastic about anyone. She exudes a cold temperament, which makes it difficult for people to get close to.

"Cuixia, what are we mainly responsible for?" An Yanbing couldn't help asking while walking on the road.

"We are in charge of lighting the fire, cooking, and cleaning the courtyard." Cui Xia said flatly.

"Yan Bing, and me." Chun Bai walked over and said with a smile, holding half a bag of rice in her hand.

"Yan Bing, Cui Xia doesn't like to talk, let me introduce some things and some people to you." Chun Bai put down the rice, and pulled An Yan Bing to sit beside her.

Cui Xia glanced at the two of them, then walked away in silence.

"Mengqiu and Dongmei are the concubine's dowry maids. They are responsible for the daily necessities of the concubine, as well as serving tea and water..." Chun Bai told An Yanbing everything she knew like pouring beans.

After listening to her words, An Yanbing had a basic understanding of the things and people in Yunning Pavilion.

"Princess is getting up soon, Chunbai, why don't you come over and help?" Trixia shouted from the kitchen.

"Yan Bing, you go clean the courtyard first, and I'll help in the kitchen." Chun Bai stood up.

"Okay." An Yanbing nodded, walked towards the courtyard, glanced around, and saw some sweeping tools in the corner.

She fetched water and sprinkled a little water first to reduce the dust flying up when sweeping the floor.

She is only responsible for sweeping the backyard, and the front yard is cleaned by a male servant.

Because of the frequent cleaning, the floor was not too dirty. After a while, An Yanbing finished sweeping. Looking at the garbage piled up together, An Yanbing became worried. She didn't know how to deal with the garbage.

"Put the rubbish there, don't worry about it, someone will collect it." Trixia said lightly as she passed by her with an exquisite food box.

An Yanbing walked into the kitchen and saw Chun Bai busy.

Puzzled and asked: "Isn't the meal ready? What are you doing now?"

"What I made just now was just for the concubine to eat, now it's for us and Mengqiu and the others, Yan Bing, come and help." Chun Bai said with a smile.

"Okay." An Yanbing nodded. She doesn't like to cook, and she doesn't know how to cook. She can only help with cooking and washing vegetables.

"Yan Bing, don't you know how to cook?" Chun Bai asked suspiciously, the children of poor people are already in charge of the family, and cooking is the most common thing in the family.

"I've lost my memory. I can't remember how I used to cook." An Yanbing had no way to justify herself and could only lie.

"Oh, that's right." Chun Bai looked at her sympathetically.

"What do the people in the front yard eat?" Seeing that there wasn't much food, An Yan asked in puzzlement.

"They have someone else to do it, we don't need to worry about it, you add a fire, I'm going to cook." Chun Bai walked towards the stove with the dishes.

An Yanbing hurriedly went to light the fire, she would be an idiot if she didn't do this again.

Breakfast is steamed buns and porridge. The steamed buns were steamed yesterday and only need to be reheated. The porridge and vegetables are freshly made.

An Yanbing looked at it, very ordinary food, could it be that the princess also eats these.

Perhaps seeing her doubts, Chun Bai explained: "The princess's food is different from ours. There is a master chef in the palace who specializes in cooking meals for the princess and others. It's just that the princess has fasted for the past two days and can't eat meat or vegetables. That's why I asked Cui Xia to start a small stove."

"Fasting? That's how it is." An Yanbing understood, thinking that the prince and the others eat a lot of food every day and cannot do without meat dishes, but they just don't understand why the princess wants to fast?Is it true Bodhisattva heart?still is?
An Yanbing didn't dare to draw conclusions in vain, she had never even seen the face of the princess, so how could she know what kind of person she was.

Just as she was thinking wildly, Meng Qiu and Cui Xia walked over, Cui Xia still had the food box in her hand.Mengqiu looks like she is in her 30s, so she should have served the princess since she was a child.

"You are a newcomer, you look quite fresh." Mengqiu said with a smile.

"Hello, my name is An Yanbing, and I will take care of you from now on." An Yanbing extended her hand in a friendly manner.

"Okay, with me covering you, no one dares to bully you." Mengqiu said with a smile, reaching out to shake her hand.

"Aunt Mengqiu, where is Aunt Dongmei?" Chun Bai looked behind the two and asked.

"She went to the Buddhist hall with the princess, let's save some food for her." Mengqiu sat down, grabbed a steamed bun and ate it.

"Does the concubine often go to the Buddhist hall?" An Yanbing asked, she just wanted to know more about the concubine so that she would not be in a hurry when she came to serve her.

"Well, it's been more than ten years." Mengqiu seemed to remember something, and her eyes suddenly became blurred.

"I'm going to change Dongmei, you go slowly." Mengqiu put down the bowl and chopsticks and said.

"This aunt is always impatient, but she is loyal to the princess." Chun Bai said with a smile, she hadn't been with the princess for long.

"Chunbai, don't talk nonsense, aren't you loyal to the princess?" Cui Xia looked at her with warning eyes.

"I just thought of the dead Bai Ping, and I always felt that her death was not easy." Chun Bai's expression suddenly became a little sad.

"Stop talking, Aunt Dongmei is here." Trixia hastily pulled her to hint.

"Everyone is here, little girl, you must be new here." Dongmei walked over and looked at An Yanbing curiously.

"Well, hello, aunt." An Yanbing said kindly.

"Okay, let's continue eating." Dongmei nodded lightly, then sat down.

After eating, Dongmei left again, and the three of them went back to their rooms to rest after doing some chores.

This is the first day of An Yanbing's life after arriving at Prince Rong's Mansion. She doesn't have a lot of work, and she is not tired at all. It's just that Chunbai seems to think of something hesitant to talk a few times, which makes An Yanbing feel that there is something tricky in it. .

"Zhiyue, what secret do you think this Yunning Pavilion will have?" An Yanbing looked at the colorful eggs on the table, wondering what was going on in her heart.

"how could I know"

"Then what can you do?" An Yan gave her a cold look.

"I can enter people's dreams," Zhiyue said with a sudden smile.

"Entering a dream? Are you talking nonsense?" An Yanbing didn't believe it.

"Sister, why don't you let me enter your dream."

"Mine, leave it alone." An Yanbing shook her head hastily, it was her private space, and there were many little secrets hidden in it, how could she let Zhiyue see it, people should keep a little privacy.

"Zhiyue, then do me a favor." An Yanbing blinked her eyes, and suddenly had an idea.

"What does sister want me to do?" Zhiyue asked curiously.

"Go to Chunbai Mengli and see what happened recently?"

"Okay, sister." The colorful eggs flew out.

An Yanbing picked up a book and read it while waiting for news from Zhiyue.

After waiting for more than an hour, Zhiyue flew back and seemed a little tired and said: "A month ago, Bai Ping, who worked here with Chun Bai, committed suicide. Before Bai Ping died, she had a good relationship with Chun Bai. Chun Bai I don't believe she committed suicide... Sister, I spent a lot of energy checking other people's dreams today, and I'm afraid I'm going to sleep for a few days." Zhiyue automatically flew into the bracelet after speaking.

"A maid who committed suicide? There must be something tricky about it." An Yanbing said to herself.

In ancient times, especially in such a big palace, the maidservant's life was cheap, no one would care if she died, but why would a person who lived a good life die?What must be going on here?
An Yanbing decided to investigate, maybe unraveling the mystery of the maid's death would give her unexpected gains.
