History of Cannon Fodder Struggle [Qing]

The next morning, the fourth master was about to get up before dawn, and Min Ning was half asleep and half awake when he felt that the fourth master got up and left.

It wasn't until dawn that she was called up by the maid beside her. When she woke up, she felt pain as if her bones were being dismantled and reassembled.

Thinking of being tossed and eaten last night, Minning's face flushed immediately, and she buried her head in the quilt.

Regardless of whether it was her previous life or this life, this was her first time. Apart from the pain at the beginning, it felt pretty good to think about it later.

And the other party was also quite scruples about her feelings. Later, she only responded a little, but the other party seemed to explode, no matter how much she begged for mercy, she would not let her go.

As for when she fell asleep, she has no memory.

Min Ning covered his face, feeling ashamed to meet people, only felt that everyone in the yard knew what happened last night.

"Ge Ge is getting late, and if it is later, it will delay the time to offer tea to Fujin."

Minning heard the maid's urging, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and stand up. As soon as her feet hit the ground, her legs softened and she lay down straight forward.

Fortunately, the maid beside her hugged her in time, which saved her from embarrassment.

He called for water and wanted to take a bath, but Minning felt something he wasn't used to. There was no wooden barrel in the palace, so he could only scrub in the wooden basin when taking a bath.

Ha ha.

After barely scrubbing her body, it was getting late at this time, she hurriedly changed her clothes, combed her hair, drew her eyebrows, and puffed her lips, without even applying rouge and gouache, she hurried to the main courtyard.

Fortunately, it was not too early or too late for her to arrive at the main courtyard, Fujin was still washing up.

After seeing Fujin, Minning felt that Fujin was not very old, because of the big brother's fuss, after drinking her tea and rewarding her with a bracelet, and ordering her to take good care of the master, he let them wait on him. The concubine withdrew.

This made Minning feel that the novels and TV shows were a bit exaggerated, and there was always a fight in the backyard, as if Fujin didn't take her seriously at all.

Fortunately, she was so nervous that she thought she was about to enter the palace fighting mode.

Well, it’s not that Fujin didn’t see it. For example, Li Gege, who gave birth to the second elder brother, felt that when Fujin talked to her, he always assumed that he was the second elder brother’s mother, and told Li Gege to take good care of the second elder brother. elder brother.

Although Li Gege's face was not good-looking, he still complied aggrievedly.

Like the concubine, Minning dared not show his air.

After getting out of the main courtyard and getting to know the other women of the fourth master, first Li Gege left under the pretext of taking care of the second elder brother Hongyi, then Song Gege followed, and the others felt bored and dispersed.

Minning walked towards her yard, and it didn't take long before she realized that there were people behind her. When she turned her head, she saw a girl younger than her being supported by a palace maid.Seeing her trembling on those stilt-like flowerpot-soled shoes, Minning felt a little terrified.

I'm afraid she will fall down.

After asking, I found out that this was Yehenala who lived in the same courtyard as her.

The Yehenala family is a common surname in Manchuria. This surname is too famous for Minning. Gein Yehenala family has two women who opened the beginning and end of the Qing Dynasty.

The former is the old daughter of Yehe, who made Nurhachi unify the Jurchens through several beauties.And the Yehenala family of the latter must be known to everyone, it is the famous Empress Dowager Cixi.

The self-proclaimed Lafayette Queen Mother must be known to many people in Greater China.

And the Yehenala family in front of him was only at the age of a primary school student, and he still had a childish face. When he thought of being destroyed by the fourth master at such a young age, Minning felt bad all over.

Back in the room, Minning kicked off his shoes, quickly opened the bead curtain, and flung himself onto the bed.

The quilt on the bed had been changed again, full of the smell of sunshine, she couldn't help yawning and wanted to go back to sleep.

The maid next to her was first startled by Minning's kicking of her shoes. The master was too bold and unrestrained. Then she hurriedly packed up the shoes at the bottom of the flowerpot, and stood by the bed and whispered advice to Minning.

"Gege, let's go to bed after breakfast."

"I don't want to move..." Minning groaned, and it took a lot of effort to turn her head from under the quilt to look at her, "By the way, what's your name?"

"Slave Bi Ying, there is also Mo Shu who is assigned to serve you together." Bi Ying said again, in fact, she and Mo Shu had already paid homage to Min Ning yesterday.

It's just that Minning was always nervous and didn't have the time to remember the names of the two court ladies.

Minning raised his eyebrows, and praised: "The name Biying sounds nice."

"Thank you Ge Ge for the compliment. The servant's name was given by the maid in charge when she entered the palace."

"Oh, that ink book is the one standing in the room with you yesterday?"

Bi Ying replied, "Yes, she manages Ge Ge's dowry."

When it came to the dowry, Minning didn't care at all, because it was arranged for her by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and she didn't see anything clearly.

The benefits of being a royal, the dowry is covered by the husband's family!

However, according to the regulations of the palace, those things were not worth a lot of money, anyway, Minning didn't take it to heart.Her Ama said that she entered the palace and became Lord Belle's person, and she will also have a backer in the future. Not everyone can bully them as a cat or a dog. They can do a big job and give her more money when she leaves the palace. dowry.

Thinking of this, Min Ning finally lifted her spirits and got up from the bed. She knelt on the bed, raised her chin and said to Bi Ying, "I'm hungry, so I'll take my breakfast first."

For a happy life after leaving the palace, it is better to start with filling the stomach first.

There is only one kitchen in each elder brother's yard in the elder brother's office, and no matter which master eats in this kitchen.

There are regulations on everything in the palace, and there are also regulations on meals. You can’t eat whatever you want.

Although Min Ning was stuffed with some money by her Ama, she was not so extravagant that she made moths on the first day she entered the door. According to her current status, she is not qualified to order food from the kitchen.

Following the crowd to receive breakfast, she simply drank a bowl of porridge and ate a piece of oily fruit, and shared the rest with the people below.

After a full sleep in the morning and dinner at noon, Minning was now in despair about the food in the palace.

They are all light and healthy, and most of them are steamed vegetables, which do not meet her taste at all.

Well, I thought that there were a lot of food in the palace, but I didn't expect it to be as good as the food at her home. After finally training the cook at home, I didn't expect her to go back to the gloomy days without food.

Thinking of how many more years this kind of life would have to pass, Minning felt weak all over.

Fourth master came back in the evening, he first went to the main courtyard to accompany Fujin, teased the elder brother for a while, and then went back to the study.

After staying in the study for an hour, he went to Xingege's courtyard.

If there are no exceptions for newcomers entering the mansion, they have to give face in the first three days, not to mention that he still likes Ge Ge who has just arrived.

Minning slept for a long time during the day, so he couldn't sleep for a while at night, so he thought about how to get a bath bucket.

She had already asked the maids around her during the day, except that the emperor had a bathtub to bathe in, and the empress dowager and the empresses all used wooden basins to scrub.

Minning's face turned green when she heard this, it's fine if she doesn't have a shower, and now she doesn't even give her a bucket, she suddenly wonders if this is really a palace?The conditions are not even as good as her home, at least her home has been remodeled by her to have a flush squat pit and a swimming pool specially used for swimming.

Minning bit the pen and drew the pattern of the wooden barrel on the paper, then looked at the paper and sighed, the days went by, and even owning a wooden barrel was out of reach.

The sound of the curtain being lifted came from behind, and Minning hurriedly stuffed the drawings into the book before turning back.

Then I saw fourth master standing a step away from her, looking at her hand pressing the book.

The fourth master glanced at her very lightly, and Minning quickly withdrew his hand without being angry.

Seeing Fourth Master come over to open the book and pull out the blueprint, the corner of Minning's mouth twitched.

"You drew this? What is it?" Fourth Master looked at the drawing on the paper, raised his eyebrows and asked.

The smile on Minning's face is far-fetched, well, she knows that she can't do calligraphy and painting with a brush, but there's no need to say it so directly, right?

"Master, I drew this for fun, so don't make fun of me." Min Ning interrupted with a dry smile.

The fourth master didn't take it to heart either. He stuffed the drawings back and turned to ask her, "Are you used to living in the palace? Are the servants serving you well? If there is someone who steals and cheats, ask Zhang Qilin to send it to the House of Internal Affairs for exchange." A batch." Different from Su Peisheng who often accompanied him out of the palace, Zhang Qilin was the chief steward in charge of managing the backyard.

Bi Ying, who was carrying tea outside the bead curtain and was about to come in, just heard Si Ye's words, her face turned pale, and the maids and eunuchs sent back to the House of Internal Affairs did not end well, and it would be best to send them to Xinzheku to do rough work.

But Minning knew that this was just a routine questioning, and she didn't really want her to complain, so she said, "There's nothing to be careless about, the people around me are very kind to me."

Fourth Master nodded, apparently satisfied with Minning's lack of arrogance.

The two talked a few more words, and Minning finally managed to get the blueprints out of the way.Now is not the time, she plans to take a look at the situation, find out the situation in the backyard first, and then ask fourth master at this time, that would be too outrageous.

The two rested and did nothing that night.

On the second day, Minning got up and waited for Fourth Master to get up, then went back to bed and squinted for a while, and then it was time to greet Fujin.

This time I kowtowed in the yard, and asked her to retreat without seeing Fujin, and then a maid beside Fujin came to tell her that today is the day when Fujin pays respects to the concubine Defei. When five comes over, the other days are not used to say hello.

All in all, just let her stay in her room when she has nothing to do and don't make a fuss, Fujin has no time to talk to her.

Minning: ...

She shrugged, well, at least she doesn't have to get up early every day.

Fourth master stayed in Minning's house for a total of three days, and after three days, he began to roam the backyard.

Without Fourth Master's interference, Minning slept comfortably that night, at least no one came to share the bed with her.

But when she got up the next day, Biying looked at her worriedly, especially when Minning only ate half a bowl of porridge, she directly comforted her, "Gege, Lord Baylor still cares about you, and the last one left still Instruct your servants to serve you well."

Minning was embarrassed, she just lost her appetite in the morning, and it was really not because of Fourth Master that she went to someone else's room to be sad.
