Rather be a concubine

Chapter 18
The next day, Bo Yuqiao just heard a few warbler cries beside her ears, and before she could react, she felt a chill hit her face. Standing upright at the head of the bed, Zhao Yueru's smiling face and Huang Ying's servant girl's eyes were a little apprehensive.

Bo Yuqiao glanced at it and saw that the unwrung handkerchief in Zhao Yueruyu's hands was dripping with water dripping down, soaking the marble-polished floor, she was a little stunned, and said.

"Auntie, what are you doing?"

Seeing her daughter's aggrieved appearance, Zhao Yueru suppressed her smile, and spoke directly.

"I told you yesterday that I have to learn cooking skills today, why are you still being lazy, now the time is past, if you don't get up again, the small kitchen will have to prepare the second lady's lunch, we have no time to spare."

Hearing these words, Bo Yuqiao felt dizzy for a while, she completely forgot what Zhao Yueru said yesterday.Thinking about having to spend every day with food from now on, how should I live this day?
"Auntie,"

"Get up quickly, there is no need to discuss this matter!"

Zhao Yueru said sharply.Seeing the coldness on that delicate face, Bo Yuqiao didn't dare to neglect, she immediately got off the ground, put on the embroidered shoes embroidered with peonies embroidered with gold thread, and then stood up to let Huang Ying help her change her clothes.

Huang Ying chose a water-blue skirt, which didn't have complicated tattoos on it, but the embroiderer carefully drew dark patterns on the corners of the dress, which looked really elegant.

"Change to an apricot-yellow one. The oily fume in the small kitchen is heavier. I'm afraid it will be ruined if you wear it in a water-blue skirt."

Hearing Zhao Yueru's order, Huang Ying hurriedly carried the previous water-blue skirt, walked a few steps to the front of the carved mahogany cabinet, and took out a small apricot-yellow shirt.

Bo Yuqiao looked up and saw that Zhao Yueru was also wearing an apricot-yellow dress, and Dang even laughed to herself, is this a mother-child outfit?

Taking advantage of this time, Cuifu, another maidservant next to Bo Yuqiao, was holding a wooden tray with a palm-sized porcelain box on top of it, which contained high-quality green salt. Pig temple brush.Bo Yuqiao first rinsed the pig temple brush in clean water, and then dipped it in green salt to brush her teeth carefully.

The first time I saw a pig temple brush, Bo Yuqiao was a little stunned. After all, except for the rod on the top, which was made of ivory, this little thing was very similar to a toothbrush. It solved Bo Yuqiao's trouble of not being able to brush her teeth.

After washing and washing, Zhao Yueru directly took Bo Yuqiao's little hand, and then led her to the small kitchen in the backyard of Qiongzhi Pavilion.After entering the small kitchen, Bo Yuqiao saw a few rough women gathered around the huge stove. The two of them were lighting a fire. There was a porcelain urn on the stove, with water vapor constantly rising from it, presumably they were cooking soup.

"Auntie, what kind of food is this?"

Although Bo Yuqiao was smelling the strong fragrance, she couldn't tell what was stewed in the porcelain urn.Hearing her question, Zhao Yueru smiled.

"Braised fish lips in a pot. Sister Qiao, of course you can't go to the stove right now. Let's practice knife skills today."

After saying that, Bo Yuqiao raised her eyes and saw the desk that was almost as tall as hers.Zhao Yueru took the wooden bench that had been prepared earlier, and put Bo Yuqiao on it, and then Bo Yuqiao saw two kitchen knives, one large and one small, and thought that the smaller one was her own.
