Chapter 31
That night—

Under the two bright candles, a small and delicate figure was sitting. The embroidery frame in front of her seemed too big for her, but she was still sitting upright, meticulously threading the needles on a piece of organdy on the embroidery frame.

It's just that she couldn't lift her left hand and only used her right hand to embroider, so it seemed a bit slow, but the stitches she embroidered were really neat.

Although Song Jiayin was puzzled, why did the young lady have such superb embroidery skills when she was only eight years old?But this doubt was suppressed by her in her heart, and she didn't ask it out.

She had noticed a long time ago that since the design of Aunt Zheng, the young lady seems to be different from before, presumably because she has grown up in her heart.

"Miss, what should I do? There seems to be not enough charcoal fire this month." Song Jiayin said worriedly. "On the first day of the lunar new year, the month's monthly routine is put down, and there are still several days, but the charcoal fire in the kitchen is only enough to burn today and tomorrow, and it has to be saved."

Wen Jinyu has been using charcoal to decoct medicine these days, so it is not enough.

Wen Jinyu said without raising her head: "Average the remaining charcoal fires, and only burn a fixed amount every day, just a little bit, and the monthly schedule will be set on the first day of the new year."

The eldest aunt has always deducted the expenses of the second room, and Aunt Zheng would also steal silver frost charcoal and ordinary charcoal for boiling water from home. Over the years, the charcoal fire in her room has never been enough. If she hadn't had A mother who really loves her, knows that she is going through hardships here, and will secretly help her, but the Yinshuang charcoal of each hospital has a share, and the mother is not rich, and the most she can give each month She evened out ten catties.

Normally, with these ten catties of charcoal, she would be enough, because she would usually go to "Yilan Courtyard" to learn the rules from Madam Xu, so there is no need to light a charcoal fire in the house during the day.

But this year she got sick and was lying in the house all the time, and Song Jiayin was new here, so she didn't know this, so she had a severe fever at the beginning of the month.

"But, it's so cold, Miss, you still need to embroider..." Song Jiayin complained to herself, forgot to be careful when she entered the prime minister's mansion, but then again, who would have imagined that the prime minister's mansion would Deducting the concubine's expenses?
The two of them were talking, but they didn't notice that the closed latch on the door of the outer room was suddenly opened, and then the door opened without a sound, and a black figure flashed in quickly, and it was silent before anyone heard the movement. He closed the door quietly, and lightly bolted it.

When he swaggered into the room, Song Jiayin was startled, "Shi... Shizi, you...how did you get in?"

"Of course he came in!" Xuan Chen said ruffiantly, threw a bamboo basket on the table, rubbed his hands and sat down on the stool. "It's really cold outside, I'm afraid it's going to snow. Jiayin, hurry up and make me a pot of fruit tea. There are fruits in the basket."

He freely commands Wen Jinyu's girl.

"Fruit tea?" Song Jiayin asked puzzled. "How to make fruit tea?"

"Just chop up the fruit and boil it in water! I brought you a few apples, pears and hawthorns. You can cook them with pears and hawthorns, and add some rock sugar."

Song Jiayin suddenly realized, "I see, my son, sit down for a while, and I'll go to the kitchen to cook now."

Wen Jinyu felt a bit of a headache, and couldn't help raising her head to look at him and said, "Did you treat my house as your back garden, and come here for a stroll if you have nothing to do?"
