after marrying stepbrother

Chapter 138
Chapter 138
After dinner, it was completely dark.

With Hearts joining in, the progress of tidying up the room was much faster.

"Sister Hongtao, didn't you go to find Madam Xiao, where are the bathtub, teapot, and bedding used by the girl?"

It's getting late, Lin Yuesha urged, she didn't sleep well last night, and she didn't want to find a place to nest for another night today.

"what……"

Hongtao didn't see Nanny Xiao at all, she couldn't answer, so she had to shirk and wait, but fortunately, there was movement in the yard after a while.

"Mother Yu, why are you here?"

Hearing the voice, Hongtao hurriedly opened the door, and when she saw the person coming, she immediately spoke enthusiastically.

Nanny Yu, that Nanny Yu who works in the big kitchen, from Ziyuan?

Lin Yuesha also went out, and happened to have a face-to-face meeting with Nanny Yu.

"After dinner, the big kitchen was free. I happened to run into Madam Xiao. I heard that there was a new girl in the yard, so I came to join in the fun."

Clothing, food, housing, and transportation are inseparable in the palace, and the people in the big kitchen are the targets of all the servants.

Nanny Yu was about forty years old, she looked very kind, she looked at Lin Yuesha and smiled, "Where did this little girl come from? She looks strange."

"This is Miss Lin, who is serving in the yard. Mommy will take care of her in the future."

Heart had a good impression of Lin Yuesha, so she took the initiative to introduce her.

"Hi Mammy Yu, just call me Miss Lin."

The little maid doesn't deserve a name, and Lin Yuesha doesn't want to be called a maid.

"It's a clever girl!"

Nanny Yu stared at Lin Yuesha carefully. The master has a good eye for seeing people. Although the little girl is clever, her eyes don't wander, and she looks upright and reliable.

Mammy Yu followed a few women, holding blankets and other things in their hands, Hongtao heaved a sigh of relief, thanks to Mammy Xiao not forgetting, she finally delivered the things.

Xuan Yao was injured, and fell asleep after washing, leaving only Heart and Lin Yuesha sitting outside chatting.

There are many rules in the palace, the maids have to be on duty at night, Hongtao looks down on Xuanyao, and she is behind Xiaomao's back, so she can dodge as long as she can.

"Sister Yuesha, the three courtyards of the mansion are not small, and there is the main courtyard of the prince, you are new here, try to go out as little as possible."

Hongtao fooled Lin Yuesha and deliberately made the rules scary. Once she entered the secret military area, she was easily caught as a spy. If she was caught, it would be useless to plead for mercy.

"So, I will go out to run errands in the future. I am familiar with the mansion, so you can stay in the yard."

Hongtao doesn't want to serve Xuanyao, and plans to go out for a walk every day, and come back after dinner.

"Okay, listen to Sister Hongtao."

In other people's territory, Lin Yuesha couldn't wait to go out less, so she easily agreed to Heart.

Hearts are fooling people, and they realize that Lin Yuesha is too innocent. In the palace, such a temperament will not last long.

The maids who were too honest, Hongtao had seen before, and later blocked the guns for those concubines who made mistakes, and were killed with sticks.

……

In the mansion for a few days, the life was extremely peaceful. Lin Yuesha almost didn't leave the gate, and stayed in the small courtyard obediently.

Every day after breakfast, Heart finds an excuse to go out, and after dinner, she shows up again with a food box.

Xuanyao is in the stage of recovering from her injuries, but she doesn't ask about Hongtao's whereabouts, so the three of them are still in peace.

The twelfth lunar month is the twentieth day of the lunar calendar, and there are only ten days left before the Chinese New Year.

The family needs to do a lot of shopping during the Chinese New Year, and Madam Xiao is so busy that her feet don't touch the ground. When she has some free time, she thinks of Lin Yuesha, who hasn't seen anyone for several days.

Last night, Mother Xiao suddenly dreamed of her granddaughter who had died tragically. After waking up, she was not in a good spirit.

Hurriedly finishing the work in hand, Madam Xiao came to Xuan Yao's small courtyard.

Hongtao had already gone out for a stroll, Xuan Yao was recuperating by sleeping, and Lin Yuesha was making snowmen in the yard to entertain herself.

"Girl Lin, where is Heart?"

The yard was quiet, and the snow had not been cleaned up.

This place is secluded, but it is also the prince's mansion, the maid of Hongtao is probably dodging.

"Sister Hongtao said that the house cut new clothes for the servants, and she went to get them."

Lin Yuesha is not a servant of the palace, and she still wears the same clothes she brought with her.

"Are you getting used to it here?"

It's obviously not a day or two for Hongtao to be so lazy, but Lin Yatou really didn't mean to betray Hongtao at all, instead she defended Hongtao.

This temperament is exactly the same as that of her silly granddaughter!

Nanny Xiao sighed, unconsciously loving Lin Yuesha a little more.

"Fortunately, the food in the palace is better than the food at home."

There are big fish and meat in almost every meal, and every time Hongtao comes back to claim credit, saying that she has been taken care of by Mammy Yu.

However, Lin Yuesha knew that Nanny Yu had been ordered by Ziyuan, so she brought the delicious food.

Xuanyao was not favored, but she was not neglected in terms of food and treatment. For this reason, Hongtao took the credit for herself, bragging about her good popularity every time.

"You don't have new clothes to cut at the house this time, but there are always new clothes for the New Year. I still have a few pieces of fabric suitable for little girls. I will send them to you when I find a chance."

After Xiao Mama finished speaking, Lin Yuesha waved her hands again and again, she said in embarrassment, "Xiao Mama, I don't know how to make clothes."

"Won't?"

Mother Xiao was surprised, Lin girl was at least twelve or thirteen years old, ordinary people's daughters could sew the family's clothes at the age of seven or eight, and the poor's children were already in charge of the family.

"Then I'll cut the fabric and you can sew it."

Mother Xiao was the next best thing to do. She wanted to help Lin Yatou make clothes, but she was old and her eyes were blurred, so she couldn't see clearly.

"Then... neither will I."

Lin Yuesha was embarrassing, she didn't know how to sew, she seemed ashamed, anyway, Mammy Xiao looked at her like a monster.

"Ugh!"

Mother Xiao sighed, she heard that Lin Yatou's mother was a widow and remarried, these days the family has no man to support the family, life is too hard, so maybe she ignored these.

"Mommy, do women really want to learn this?"

Mother Chen did not ask her before, Lin Yuesha clearly felt that since the family had savings, Chen began to worry.

"It's not too late for you to pick it up."

Mammy Xiao couldn't hit Lin Yuesha again, so she changed to a tactful way.

Women will always get married in the future, and after they get married, they have to make clothes, shoes and socks.

Even if you marry a good family in the future and have servants, some men's private clothes are not easy to borrow from others.

Especially in rich families, women pay more attention to these things. There are many concubines and aunts who climb into bed by giving men clothes.

Lin girl is too simple to be exposed to such dirty things.

"How about this, from now on you come to my place for two hours every day, and I will let Hongliu teach you."

Hongliu is also a servant girl of the palace, she has a docile temperament, and female reds are especially outstanding. Mother Xiao asked Hongliu to teach Lin Yuesha because she has no basic foundation, and if she has a bad temper, she might be annoying.
