The Cultivation of Concubine

Chapter 5 Peach Blossom Eyes (2)
In addition to the three maids who just arrived today, Jitangxuan also has five maids who are rough envoys.Of course, these maids are not close to the son of the world, and they only clean outside.Speaking of which, it's strange that there is no personal maid by his side with such an identity as the son of the world.Moreover, there are very few servants in Jitangxuan.The one who waits on him is just a young man named Zhusheng.Don't look at this Zhusheng, although he is a servant, but he is the most valued servant of the Shizi.As for the aunt in charge of Jitangxuan's maid, her name is Ruyi, and she is about the same age as Fangzhou next to Lan's, about 30 years old.

Ruyi came out with a teapot, just in time to see Ajiao, her eyes lit up immediately, and hurriedly said: "Miss Six is ​​here, why don't you go in and pour tea?"

The sixth girl, Xiao Yuti, was born of the Duke's wife Lan, and is also the younger sister of the eldest son Xiao Heng.Although Shi Ziye has a dull temperament, he is extraordinarily kind to his two younger sisters.As for the other eldest girl, Xiao Yuxiu, she was married a long time ago, and her husband's family is the prestigious Xuanpinghou Mansion in Yancheng.

But... She is not the only maid in Jitangxuan, isn't there Jinse and Linglong?

Ah Jiao didn't ask this question.

Hearing this, Ajiao quickly took the blue and white teapot with alum red and gilded flowers and birds from Ruyi's hand, hurriedly went to the small kitchen to refill the teapot and brought it in.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw the son of the world and the sixth girl Xiao Yuti sitting face to face on the red sandalwood inlaid marble chair, playing chess together.

Ajiao knew that the Duke's wife, Lan's family, was famous in Daqi for her superb chess skills, so the six girls were naturally outstanding.The sixth girl, Xiao Yuti, is only twelve, and today she is wearing an exquisite double bun with a red coral passionflower hairpin on her hairpin, a hibiscus-colored brocade jacket on her upper body, and a milky white silk satin skirt with brocade ribbons underneath.The material and workmanship of this set of clothes can be seen from the best garment workshop in Yancheng - Jinxiu Workshop, which shows the status of Miss Six in the Jingguo Palace.

Miss Six's appearance followed that of the Duke's wife.With a delicate and fair oval face, a pair of bright and playful red phoenix eyes, and being the prostitute of the Yasukuni Mansion, she naturally has the temperament of a noble woman, but she is not spoiled at all.Moreover, the sixth girl is very fond of laughing, not as unsmiling as the Duke's wife, she is lively and easy-going, except that she is not at odds with the fifth girl Xiao Yuxian who was born by Aunt Lu, she is quite attractive in the Jingguo Palace If you like it, it is also good for the servants.

only--

For the past three years, Ajiao has been serving the old lady by her side, and the old lady's attitude towards the sixth girl is also seen in her eyes.Although the six girls went to the old lady's Banjin hall to pay their respects on time every day, the old lady didn't like this six girls very much, and her attitude was neither cold nor cold every time.She couldn't figure it out at first—how could the old lady not like such a cute and delicate granddaughter?Later she realized that because the old lady didn't like Mrs. Guogong, she didn't even favor the six girls.

Relatively speaking, the old lady's love for the fifth girl is obvious.

Although the fifth girl, Xiao Yuxian, is a concubine, her mother is Aunt Lu.Aunt Lu is the old lady's niece, even if she is a concubine, it is different after all.And she also heard that if it wasn't for the marriage granted by an imperial edict back then, the mistress of the Duke of Jing's mansion would be Aunt Lu.But these are all discussed privately.

Ajiao saluted respectfully, and then refilled tea for Sixth Miss and Shi Ziye.
