After crossing, I was dragged by the bamboo horse and became a queen

Chapter 23 The legendary steward aunt
In the twelfth lunar month, it seems that the Chinese New Year is coming.

For two children who lack resources, there is nothing unusual about the New Year.But this is the first New Year since Shangguan Jing crossed into this world, and she really wanted to have a good time.

She and Xiao Jingheng discussed and wrote a list of New Year's goods, and handed it to Xiaohong along with a thick silver hairpin, asking Xiaohong to find a way to help buy it.

After all, money is easy to do things. This is the first time Xiao Jingheng has gotten a decent snack box during the Chinese New Year.

There is no shortage of candied and dried fruit snacks. They are full and placed on the table, enough to eat for several days.

Xiao Jingheng is a child who is easy to satisfy, and this small New Year's welfare has made him happy for many days.

Before and after Laba, Mammy Zhang, who had not seen her face for a long time, suddenly appeared.With her, there was also a middle-aged maid from the sewing room. Together, the two measured Shangguan Jing and Xiao Jingheng and prepared to make new clothes.

"Have I been married to the palace for half a year? This is the first time I've seen someone in a sewing room!" Shangguanjing exclaimed, "They finally remembered to make clothes for us!"

"It's about this time every year to make new clothes." Xiao Jingheng replied: "One winter and one summer, two seasons of new clothes, I won't forget it."

"I won't forget!" Shangguanjing nodded: "You are a child growing up. Your father loves face so much, how could it be possible for you to wear a short robe and go out to shame."

"The people from the sewing room came quite early this year." Xiao Jingheng said with a smile: "In previous years, it was my last turn. It must be because Sister Jing was here that they could think of me earlier."

"So, I'm a lucky star!" Shangguan Jing boasted unceremoniously.

"Sister Jing is my lucky star." Xiao Jingheng nodded vigorously with a smile, and couldn't agree more: "With Sister Jing here, life is always better."

Lucky stars are not lucky stars, it's all a joke.Shangguan Jing quickly understood why the people in the sewing room came very early this year.

Before the new year, new clothes were sent, but they were not ordinary winter clothes, but two gorgeous dresses.

"My robe seems to be from Song Jin." Xiao Jingheng, an ancient child, was obviously more aware of the fabric: "It's rare. They rarely make me such a gorgeous robe."

"So what are you trying to do?" Shangguanjing also raised her skirt, which was not made of material, but was very beautiful and complicated anyway: "Suddenly treating us so well, it's scary."

Not long after the clothes were delivered, a strange visitor suddenly came to Shangguan Jing and Xiao Jingheng's small courtyard.

It was a middle-aged woman with a serious face, her hair was neatly combed, and she wore an extremely fine jade hairpin on her head. The fabric of the clothes looked gorgeous, but the style was not exaggerated.

She is very beautiful and looks about 40 years old. Even if she is not young, she is still very good-looking and has a good demeanor.

Shangguanjing didn't know this woman, but the rough maids in the yard were no strangers to this face.

As soon as the woman entered the door, Xiaohong and the others were so frightened that they hurriedly avoided them, and respectfully knelt in a row against the wall, not even daring to lift their heads.

Only later did Shangguan Jing know that this is the famous Aunt Yun, the one who even the concubine side has to give a third of face.

When Shangguanjing looked at Aunt Yun curiously, Aunt Yun was also looking at her.

The little girl has a big and square smile on her face, big round eyes, a pretty nose bridge, and a rosy mouth. Because she is still young, she still has a bit of baby fat on her face, and her black hair is combed in pairs. Yaji, wearing a homely cotton skirt.

Although dressed very simply, but still bright and cute.

And... Aunt Yun took a closer look at Shangguan Jing's eyes.This child has a pair of shining eyes, and he doesn't look stupid!

"Auntie is good." Shangguanjing took the initiative to greet Aunt Yun, with a very polite attitude: "I don't know if Auntie is free to come over today, and I couldn't meet her. It's rude, and I hope Auntie doesn't care."

Shangguanjing's polite remarks made Aunt Yun very surprised, but she had seen the world after all, her face was still calm, and she replied with a smile: "Mrs. Jiu's words are going to break the slaves. It has been a long time since you entered the palace, and this is the first time a slave has come to greet you, and the ninth madam should not care about the slave's rudeness and neglect."

"What did Aunt Yun say?" Shangguanjing replied with a smile: "You are the one who serves in front of the father and the king. We are juniors, how dare we take care of you in front of you."

"It's Mrs. Ninth's generosity." Aunt Yun also smiled and nodded to Shangguanjing. They came and went, and both sides were cautiously testing.

Shangguanjing let Aunt Yun into the house, rolled up her sleeves and planned to cook tea for Aunt Yun herself.After finally waiting for this big Buddha to take the initiative to come to the door, Shangguanjing planned to sing all the tricks.

"How can I work for the ninth lady to do it herself." Aunt Yun hurriedly stopped Shangguanjing, gave a slight look, and the maid who followed her immediately took the teapot in Shangguanjing's hand with great discernment, and quickly began to boil water to make tea , the action is very neat.

"It's a joke." Shangguanjing said very deliberately: "I only have a few rough maids in my yard, and those who are rough and clumsy can't come in to serve. As for Jiuye's nanny, there are three disasters and eight disasters on weekdays. I can't count on it. Therefore, Jiuye and I do most of the chores in the back room on our own."

Aunt Yun certainly understood Shangguanjing's obvious complaint.She immediately smiled and said: "Ninth madam, forgive me, this is the negligence of the slaves. The ninth master has loved cleanliness since he was a child, and he doesn't like to have too many people waiting in front of him, so there are fewer people in this yard."

"After Mrs. entered the door, she should have followed her habit to fill up people first, but this maid who is close to serving has to be in the eyes of Mrs. Therefore, the servant originally thought, first select a group of people to send to her. Madam took a look, but I didn't expect that the right person could not be selected for a while, and it was delayed."

Of course Shangguan Jing wouldn't believe this kind of bullshit, and of course Aunt Yun didn't expect Shangguan Jing to believe it.She deliberately said an excuse for such an obvious loophole, just to see how the little girl would respond.

Of course, an adult Shangguan Jing can understand the twists and turns inside.So she was very understanding and handed the ladder to Aunt Yun.

"What are you talking about, aunt?" Shangguanjing said with a smile: "Jiuye likes to be clean. As a wife, I naturally follow my husband's preferences, so I have never reached out to my aunt to ask for someone, so where did my aunt come from? ?"

"It's just that Jiuye's nanny is not in good health, and it's not a problem that there is always no one in the house to serve you. I think if my aunt can't find a suitable person for a while, she doesn't have to force herself. It's better to ask my mother's family for mine. Grandma, will you come over to serve me?"

Back and forth.Aunt Yun will naturally not refuse Shangguanjing's request when she steps down the stairs, she readily agrees, and she will consult with the Wuding residence as soon as possible, and pick up Mother Chen.
