The glorious spring scene of the Red House
Chapter 007
Most people in the world are deceitful, and this palace is no exception.
The new batch of palace maids, Yu Yan, were soon assigned a lot of tasks, which they dubbed as: grinding one's temper.
If you do things well, that is your duty, if you do not do well, then you have to be punished.And as long as one person makes a mistake, all will be punished.
When they first started working, everyone was very attentive, but after a long time, some people would inevitably slack off.Those maids and nuns in charge wanted to teach Yu Yan and the others a lesson, so they were naturally found to be wrong.
Yu Yan rubbed his stomach, and couldn't help sighing in his heart: Sure enough, the good days are too many, and the body has become delicate. This sudden hungry meal makes me feel so uncomfortable.
But no matter how hungry you are, you still have to do the work that should be done.
Yu Yan wiped the bookshelf with a rag, silently hypnotizing that he wasn't hungry at all.
In this department, the most people are not the people, but the books and classics stored there.The place where these books and classics are stored must be cleaned every day, and it must be free from dust.What Yu Yan and these newly promoted little maids do every day is to wipe clean the bookshelves where books are displayed, and wipe the floor clean to ensure that there is no dirt at all.
Although I wipe it every day, there is nothing particularly unclean, but I still need to use 12 points of heart.
Today, there was a maid who stood up too hard after cleaning and knocked the books on the shelf to the ground, making a noise.It was nothing at first, just put it back, but the aunt in charge insisted on grasping this point, and punished a whole room of court ladies not to have lunch.
He didn't eat lunch, but he still had to do the work in the afternoon. Yu Yan and the other little maids looked like sunflowers withered, all of them downcast.
The little maid who knocked down the book in the morning was even more rejected by the other little palace ladies.
Yu Yu wanted to say a few words to the little maid to comfort her, but just as she moved a step, He Xiangxiang grabbed her hand.
"Don't go, we are already eye-catching enough, why bother to be such an early bird?"
Yu Yan whispered: "It's so pitiful to see her like that."
"That's her fault. No one made a mistake, why did she make a mistake? It's also troubled us. Let me tell you..."
He Xiangxiang didn't pay attention to Yu Xun originally. From the perspective of identity and background, He Xiangxiang was much better than Yu Xun, but Cui Siji chose Yu Xun instead of her, so she could only follow Shi Dianji.
Si Ji is at the fifth rank, and the classics are at the sixth rank. From the rank of the master he followed, he is already inferior to others, which makes He Xiangxiang feel ashamed and panicked.She used money, how could she not compare to someone who didn't use money.
After a few days of inquiring, He Xiangxiang knew why Cui Siji chose Yu Yan.Since there is no conflict of actual interests, it is naturally more beneficial for He Xiangxiang to make friends with Yu Yan.
He Xiangxiang's family is an imperial merchant, so he knows more about the affairs of the palace.After He Xiangxiang's science popularization, Yu Yan had some more things in his mind.
Even if the palace people had already picked the best ones when they were choosing, there were always good and bad ones who brought Tibetan mastiffs into the prehistoric times.People like Yu Yu and He Xiangxiang who were selected in advance will naturally have good prospects in the future, but those who have been missed must find ways to pick them out.
In the past few days, they are doing selections.
The relationship between palace people is more complicated than Yu Yan imagined, and there are many twists and turns in it.But generally speaking, palace people are actually a group of interests, and mutual help is the norm.If those who show coldness and indifference for a small matter, naturally they will not be reused.
Just like now, when everyone makes mistakes, they just need to accept the punishment and make corrections, but if you keep holding on to other people's mistakes and refuse to forgive, then it's your fault.
Most of these newly-promoted little maids are still children, who they hate now, and fall in love with later.The little palace lady who made a mistake soon blended in again.Of course, there are some who hold grudges against that little maid secretly.
It's just a few days of observation, these newly promoted little maids have already been divided into different ranks in the hearts of those old people.
Yu Xun returned to the room with a day's exhaustion, because of the rules and etiquette in the palace, he could not lie on the bed sprawled, and could only bend over and massage the sore place.This is what I learned from the old man in the palace. As long as I massage the right place, I won't feel too uncomfortable when I wake up tomorrow.
When Cui Siji came back, he was holding a bag in his hand.
"This is your money for the day, you keep it well." This was a bit harsh, Cui Siji saw that Yu Yu didn't answer, and asked in a softer voice: "Are you still used to living these days?" ? If there is anything you want to eat, just tell me, I still have some friendship with the people in Shangshi Bureau."
This Cui Siji might not be very good at getting along with children, Yu Yan thought with some embarrassment.
Yu Yan took the bag and said, "Thank you Si Ji, I will put it away carefully."
Cui Siji looked at Yu Xun, and wanted to reach out his hand to touch Yu Xun's hair, but his hand stopped in the middle, and he took it back.
"Ahem...you are still young, and there are many things you don't understand right now, but you can learn slowly, and I can teach you too. Let's live a good life in this palace, and later... just like the promise , go out of the palace together." Cui Siji's tone was slightly awkward.
Yu Yan stood aside, raised his head, opened his eyes wide, and asked a little awkwardly: "Can Si Ji teach me how to read?"
Cui Siji's brows loosened, and Yu Yan was willing to get close to her, that's always good.Cui Siji also had other considerations when he was anxious to find someone back then.Now that she is by her side, she should naturally treat her well, this will be her future support.
Since Cui Siji can become a supervisor, Cui Siji's knowledge will not be far behind. She first carefully asked Yu Xun what he had learned before, and then planned to teach Yu Xun step by step.
In addition to reading and reading, Yu Yan is still learning female celebrities, and is constantly learning and deepening palace rituals.
On this day, the nanny of the Shanggong Bureau came to teach the little maid to be a maid. Yu Yan and He Xiangxiang sat together, holding a stretcher in their hands and comparing it with the needle and thread.
"Cui Siji really gave you all your Fengyin and asked you to keep it yourself?" He Xiangxiang was a little surprised, and couldn't help but raise his voice a little.
Nanny Needlework walked behind He Xiangxiang and said, "Concentrate."
He Xiangxiang shook her head, bowed her head, and concentrated on being a female celebrity.
Waiting for the nanny to leave, He Xiangxiang put away her needle and thread, pulled Yu Yan and asked, "Is what you just said true?"
"fake."
"Is it true or not?" He Xiangxiang asked eagerly, "Let me tell you..."
He Xiangxiang naturally has her own money, but He Xiangxiang has not seen half of the copper until now, and it has been collected by Shi Dianji who lives with her.
Most of the court ladies have no descendants, so they will be lonely and helpless in the future. Most of them like to save some money to Yuwang.Some of them like to collect money even more. As for the source of money, in addition to relying on rewards from above, it is natural to exploit the little maids and servants below.
After being told by He Xiangxiang, Yu Yan wondered if he wanted to hand over the money to Cui Siji for safekeeping.
"Since Cui Siji gave it to you, you can keep it yourself. Although you don't need to spend money on food and clothing in this palace, but you have money in your hand, after all, you have more confidence." He Xiangxiang smiled slyly , held Yu Yan's hand, and sincerely said: "Since you have money, sister, if I have difficulties in the future, please help me a little bit."
He Xiangxiang's attitude made Yu Yan laugh so hard that he quickly agreed.
Cui Siji and Shi Dianji are happy to see Yu Xing and He Xiangxiang getting close.Cui Siji and Shi Dianji are colleagues, they work together and live close together, and they are also happy to get along well when Yu Yan and He Xiangxiang are together.
The more you learn in the palace, the more you know, the more handsome Yu Yan and his group of newly promoted young ladies will be.
After eating moon cakes on the [-]th day of the eighth lunar month, wearing dogwood from the ninth and ninth Chongyang Festival, and changing into thick winter clothes in October, Laba drank a bowl of thick Laba porridge, and soon the busiest time in the palace came.
The six bureaus and one department in the inner palace are all busy, and the little palace ladies like Yu Yan are also very busy.
But the reward money issued in the year is also a lot, a little more weight in the hand, and the face looks festive.Even a little court lady like Yu Yan has more or less won a few rewards.
But these little maids like Yu Yan don't value money, what makes them happiest is smelling the smell of food wafting from Shangshi Bureau every day, thinking about what they can eat today.
For those important sacrifices, ceremonies, and banquets, it was not Yu Yan's turn to participate in them, so he had to sit in a row and listen to the elderly aunt talk about the grand occasion inside.
But Cui Siji couldn't be lazy, he got up early every day, and couldn't even fall asleep.
On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhong Shangyi and Lu Shangyi gathered people together, set up a few decent tables, and asked the people in the Shangyi Bureau to watch the new year together.
There are chairs on the left and right, and two Shangyi, who are in charge of each department, sit on them according to the size of their positions.All the maids came forward to salute together according to their respective duties.After the ceremony, the two Shangyi and the principals of each division generously distributed the lucky money.
Because he still had a job, he didn't dare to drink alcohol at the banquet, but the various soups, fruits, and dishes still made everyone feel full.
Yu Yu's table was filled with the same batch of maids who came in, most of them were acquainted, who liked what to eat, who didn't like what to eat, whispered, and slowly moved the dishes, and started to eat happily.
Yu Yan ate auspicious fruit and sandwiched Ruyi cake, hoping for good luck, peace and joy in the coming year.
When it was close to Zishi, plates of ingot-shaped dumplings were placed on each table, with all kinds of fillings inside. Yu Yan ate a few, but he didn't eat a single one that was the same.
For a while, there was endless laughter and laughter until the sound of the midnight drum.
It's been a new year, and Yu Yan's newcomers are not too new, but they are still left behind to clean up the leftovers.
Everyone was in a hurry to go back to catch up on sleep, so they cleaned up very neatly.
Yu Xie and He Xiangxiang went back together, looking at the bright red lanterns under the corridor, Yu Xie murmured: "Today is my best birthday ever."
On this birthday, there is a table full of delicious food, so you don't have to worry about your livelihood for the next year.Everyone is happy and celebrating this grand festival.
He Xiangxiang asked suspiciously, "What did you say?"
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking, from now on... it will be like this every year."
The new batch of palace maids, Yu Yan, were soon assigned a lot of tasks, which they dubbed as: grinding one's temper.
If you do things well, that is your duty, if you do not do well, then you have to be punished.And as long as one person makes a mistake, all will be punished.
