Quick wear: She has turned over the big guys from all walks of life

Chapter 1165 Famine and Natural Disaster 325

Mingyi smiled as she saw that the room was soon filled with people and smoke, and it was not as cold as the one she first saw.

"Steward Luo, please ask people to pay more attention. My teacher will be arriving in Fucheng soon."

"I remember, Miss Cheng, don't worry; you have your meal first, and if you need it, you can tell the maid assigned to you, and ask the maid to inform me, and I will prepare it for you."

Mingyi nodded and watched Butler Luo leave.

As soon as he left, the maid who came to deliver meals also left, leaving the maid who delivered hot water waiting in the courtyard.

Mingyi walked to the table and didn't bother to wash up first and eat before eating; otherwise it would be a pity if these meals were cold, and recooked meals would never taste as good as fresh ones.

She ate happily, and the maids who arranged the room packed their things and came out, all happy.

"The slaves have seen the young lady."

Mingyi waved her hands and said nothing; the five of them understood and lowered their eyes respectfully, waiting for her to finish.

Mingyi seemed to be eating elegantly, and her speed was not slow at all. After filling her stomach, the four dishes on the table were all gone, and the rest could be called leftovers.

A maid came forward and presented a clean handkerchief.

"Please."

"Thank you." He took it and wiped it casually and put it on the table. "The things for bathing and toiletries are ready. I will use them later."

"Yes."

Several people blessed themselves again and turned to the side room.

There are two wing rooms next to the bedroom, one is dedicated for formal use, and the other is for washing and bathing; both have separate doors and are not connected to the bedroom, study, or main hall.

Mingyi returned to the inner room and took out the baggage and medicinal materials and put them on the dressing table. She took out a set of dark green and pink clothes as a spare, and put the other sets in the closet. There was nothing to pack next, so she picked up the clothes. The clothes went to the bathing room.

"Little lady."

"Well, are everything ready?" he asked while scanning the balm, towels, flower petals, and small things for massage placed on the side of the tub.

"Everything is ready. Please undress." A maid came forward to help her undress.

Mingyi quickly waved her hand and refused, "I don't need you to serve me here anymore. Go and tell the housekeeper and help me buy some men's clothes for my age, including shoes and a scholar's belt."

The five of them didn't know what she meant. They were not familiar with the new mistress and didn't understand her temperament, so they didn't dare to ask rashly. Nele agreed and walked out of the bathroom, not forgetting to close the door when she went out.

She was the only one in the bathroom. Mingyi quickly took off her clothes and jumped into the tub. She had a good bath in a comfortable manner. She was dusty all the way, her hair was tangled, and there was some dust on her clothes due to morning dew. The spots are speckled and look dirty.

Throwing the dirty clothes on the shelf aside, you scooped up water and washed them from head to toe with ointment before jumping into the tub.

Soaking in it soothes your whole body, relaxes your nerves, and makes you sleepy.

In the end, she didn't fall asleep either. She only soaked for a quarter of an hour before getting up.

She put on her clothes, twisted her black hair with a dry towel and walked out of the room; there were four maids waiting outside the door. When she came out, one of them stepped forward to wait on her, one went to call the maids in the courtyard to come over and bring water, and the other two went into the house. Clean up the mess and clean the dirty clothes.

There was proper division of labor and coordination. Mingyi nodded secretly. Butler Luo managed the business well.

"Little lady, can I help you twist your hair?"

The person who followed to serve was a girl of twelve or thirteen years old. She was tall and slender, with clean fingers and clear eyes. She had a respectful demeanor and it was not difficult to tell that she was literate when she spoke. "Okay, come on."

Back in the room, Mingyi sat down at the table and handed the towel to the other person.

"My slave, I obey." The maid stepped forward and wiped her hair gently and orderly with a skillful technique.

Seeing the other party's attentiveness in serving, Mingyi relaxed and asked casually: "What's your name?"

"My name is Chunhong. I am thirteen this year."

"Have you been serving in the house since you were a child, or did you have children at home?"

"I am a son of a family member in the house, and the kitchen steward is my mother. I started working as an errand when I was eight years old. I used to help my mother, but then I got older. Butler Luo thinks that I am hardworking and well-educated. , and arranged the slaves to the inner courtyard."

This time Mingyi didn't ask any more questions, she just said, "Serving as a servant in the palace, I feel very honored. The masters of the palace rarely come back, and there are very few opportunities to serve the family members of the palace. Some little sisters work as servants." You may not be able to see your master from the beginning until you get married. My little lady, you are the first female family member I have seen living in this inner courtyard since I can remember."

She spoke softly and softly, with a soothing meekness.

It is also the gentleness and tranquility unique to this era.

Mingyi smiled lightly, "Didn't the family members of the royal family come to the northwest in the past?"

"I heard that the princess came here more than ten years ago. Later, when the prince came to the northwest to fight, he also brought concubines with him. However, few concubines were brought to the prince's palace. Most of them lived with the prince in the military camp." Chunhong was happy to see her. As they got along, they talked more, "Besides, the concubine cannot live alone in the backyard when she comes. She lives with the prince in the front yard. If the mistress of the backyard is not around, there won't be so many rules."

Mingyi understands that with the mistress of the house away, there are more opportunities for concubines, and she is eager to live with her husband. Firstly, it is to cultivate affection, and secondly, she wants to serve him conveniently and meet her husband as soon as possible.

Whichever way you plan, it doesn't matter whether you can live in the backyard or not.

"This is the first time I've heard of this." She smiled brightly and said tentatively, "Did the prince spend a lot of time living in the palace in the northwest?"

Chunhong shook her head, "Very few. Sometimes I don't come back even once a month. When the war ahead is tense, even Butler Luo can't see the prince."

"The King of Zhou cannot come this year, but the prince is here. I wonder if the prince can come back often. If he can't come back, can I go to the military camp to visit him?"

"I don't know about this." Chunhong shook her head in embarrassment, "You can ask Butler Luo."

"Ok."

Mingyi stopped talking. These messages were enough for now.

After drying her hair, which still needed to be aired, Mingyi sat at the table doing nothing; waiting for her hair to dry in boredom, she sat there for a while, and then went to lie down on the bed when she couldn't bear the sleepiness anymore.

Chunhong helped her sleep and closed the door; the other three maids also came over after their work. They had sweated a lot on their foreheads after working for so long.

"Sister Chunhong, has the little lady gone to bed?"

"Yes, the young lady has gone to bed; you should also take a rest. The young lady is an easy person to get along with. As long as we take good care of her, the young lady is very kind." Chunhong comforted her.

The three maids raised their smiles and said, "Thanks to Sister Chunhong."

"Sister Chunhong, the little lady is so pretty. I have never seen such a pretty girl. There is no girl in Fucheng who has skin like snow. Who do you think this little lady is? Assign us When we came here, Butler Luo also gave us a serious warning and told us to be careful and do our duty."

"That's not what we should know. We just need to obey." Chunhong didn't want to talk about it.
