The tea room was eerily quiet, you could hear a needle drop.
Yaoniang was stunned, but quickly realized and turned around.
Somewhat at a loss, she squatted in front of the stove, mechanically holding a cattail fan to fan the stove, trying to make the water in the copper pot boil faster.
How could Jin Wang appear in the small building, or is he dressed like this
Yaoniang is full of such thoughts, but at the same time, she has a little understanding in her heart, no wonder Yuyan told her not to walk around at night yesterday, but today... Yaoniang vaguely recalled that there seemed to be a movement outside before , but at that time she was breastfeeding the little princess, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
Although she stayed in Xiaokuayuan, Yaoniang's news was relatively well-informed.
This is due to the few talkative wives in the Xiaokua courtyard. Yaoniang doesn't have to work during the day, so she will inevitably encounter them talking small things in private. And during the daytime today, she heard those women say that the Liuchun Pavilion is really incomparable to others, since His Highness came back to the mansion, it was the first time he came to the backyard, and he stayed in the Liuchun Pavilion.
Naturally, this was said last night, but King Jin came to the small building last night.
She suddenly remembered the second floor of the small building where no one was allowed to go up...
After thinking about it, the water boiled. As soon as the spout of the pot beeped, the water with white smoke poured out from the lid of the spout.
It turned out that she overfilled the pot with water, so it overflowed as soon as it boiled.
Yaoniang stood up in a hurry, she wanted to lift the pot, but she was so hot that she withdrew her hand, so she could only turn around and look for a rag. During this period, she knocked over the teacup and teapot on the table next to her, making a series of crisp and messy noises.
The more flustered she was, the more flustered she was, and when she finally lifted the kettle off the stove, the table in front of her was already a mess.
Yaoniang looked at all this dejectedly, wishing she could find a crack in the ground and slip in. She didn't even dare to look back, she didn't dare to imagine what expression Prince Jin would have now, she could only make the tea quickly like an ostrich, and then leave.
King Jin frowned, staring at Yaoniang's back.
Seeing this nanny that day, she was not so clumsy. King Jin remembered Mu Momo's words of praise, and his eyes turned cold.
Since it is impossible for Nanny Mu to lie, it is natural that this nanny did it on purpose.
King Jin thought that Yaoniang was deliberately trying to attract his attention.
King Jin lived in the court with a noble status, and he saw many women who tried their best to win the position.
Those women in the harem have never used any tricks or tricks to invite favor. Some deliberately show off their outstanding appearance and graceful figure, and some see that this way is not working, and use ingenuity to make a fool of themselves to attract attention.
He stared almost meanly at the woman who was walking towards him. She wore an ordinary and rigid bun, and was dressed in clothes that only those old women would wear, and her whole body was tightly wrapped. Except for the half-sagging face and slender jade neck, it looked extraordinarily white against the dark clothes.
It looks like an egg that has been peeled off its shell. Under the faint yellow light, it seems to be covered with a layer of honey, giving people the illusion of fragrance and deliciousness.
Looking at her walking posture, her breasts are swaying and her hips are swaying, even if she is covered by a layer of skin, King Jin's sharp eyes will not ignore it.
Why is she? A woman who is married and has given birth to a child!
The disgust in King Jin's heart deepened, and his brows frowned. At the same time, he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, half covered his thin lips, and looked at Yao Niang with colder eyes. .
Yaoniang was very cramped, and was even more horrified by the sight, and she didn't care if she had lost the rules, so she put down the teacup, said something in a hurry and had to go to see the little princess, and ran away.
Instead, King Jin was stunned on the spot.
Yaoniang ran back to Dongshaojian with her heart beating fast all the way, and only slowed down when she reached the door.
Pushing the door open, Yucui woke up and asked her where she had been. Yaoniang didn't hide it either, and told about meeting King Jin when she went to the teahouse to drink water.
Yuyan looked at Yaoniang, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Nurse Su just needs to know about it herself, don't spread it to the outside world, the masters have their own ideas in everything they do, don't offend your tongue."
Yaoniang froze for a moment, then nodded hurriedly.
After Jin Wang finished his tea, he went up to the second floor.
He slept until midnight and was thirsty, but this small building is not as convenient as Zhaohuitang. Fucheng fell asleep again, he was not in the mood to be waited on in everything, so he went to the tea room to pour tea by himself.
But he never expected to meet that nanny.
King Jin went up to the second floor and was still thinking about the nanny just now. He had a vague impression of this person, because she always likes to keep her head down. The only thing that impressed me was her fair skin, those red rabbit eyes, and that day...
The King of Jin couldn't help but think of what he saw that day, the stone blue veil, under which was the white skin wrapped in bright red...
Almost subconsciously, everything that happened in the Liuchun Hall suddenly appeared in King Jin's mind.
King Jin was born in the court, so he naturally knew many unspeakable methods of inviting favors from women, but he never thought that one day someone would use such methods on him.
As long as he thought of the white flower and the white juice falling down, King Jin would feel nauseated, and this psychological change also caused a physiological reaction.
King Jin took out a handkerchief from his sleeve to half-cover his thin lips, and tried his best to suppress the rising nausea, but he couldn't suppress it...
Fucheng heard the movement and hurried in from the outside.
"Your Highness..."
Seeing King Jin like this, Fucheng didn't understand what else, and saw a teacup on the table next to him. It was hot to the touch in the past, so I brought it to King Jin, and hurriedly twisted a cold handkerchief over it.
King Jin drank half a cup of tea, covered his face with a handkerchief and applied it for a long time before suppressing the nausea.
Fucheng's face was full of worry, and thinking of that concubine Hu, he couldn't help sighing in his heart, why bother. It took so much effort, it was useless, and it disgusted His Highness.
"Your Highness, if I don't want this old slave to go to Doctor Liu Liang..."
King Jin tore off the veil and looked up at him with cold eyes, until finally Fucheng couldn't speak anymore.
"The old slave talks too much."
"Go down."
In the second half of the night, Yaoniang was replaced to rest, but she didn't sleep well, she couldn't fall asleep until dawn, and she closed her eyes for a while.
When he woke up again, he felt that someone had come in. Nanny Wang and Yu Cui came very early, and they came as soon as it was bright outside. Putting hands together to tidy up the little princess's room, Yaoniang went back to the room.
When going down the steps, she turned her head and looked at the small building behind her.
In the morning light, the delicate and picturesque small building stands there like a huge monster. Yaoniang thinks of the person on the second floor, wondering if he has left.
In the past, Yaoniang was on duty all night, at least she would sleep until the afternoon before getting up, but today she went back to the room and slept for less than an hour before getting up.
For some reason, she just couldn't sleep.
Unable to sleep and having nothing to do, Yaoniang went to the small kitchen.
The busiest place in the entire small courtyard is naturally the small kitchen. This small kitchen is set up separately, independent of the big kitchen in the mansion, and manages the food going up and down in the small courtyard.
Among them, Mrs. Mo is in charge of the kitchen. She is very good at cooking stoves, and she specializes in taking care of the small stoves.
The small kitchen is divided into large stoves and small stoves. Small stoves refer to more refined food, for example, the nurses and Madam Mu Yucui eat small stoves. The big stove is eaten by other maids and women.
As soon as you enter the small kitchen, there is a huge counter in the middle, which is used for processing vegetables. There is a row of three stoves on the front side against the wall. These are the stoves for small stoves. The left side is used for making large pots of rice, and the right side is used for boiling water.
Yaoniang walked into the small kitchen, and the kitchen was bustling.
Several women were performing their duties, and two little girls were squatting in the corner to choose vegetables, and everyone was talking and laughing. Seeing Yaoniang walking in, a woman surnamed Wang greeted her with a smile: "Why is Su Nanny born so early, but is she hungry?"
Mrs. Mo, who was chopping vegetables at the counter, looked up at Yaoniang, "If you're hungry, there are buns left over from the morning on the stove."
Yao Niang shook her head hurriedly, and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm either hungry, or I just woke up and have nothing to do."
Everyone nodded in understanding, and one of the women moved a stool for her and stuffed a handful of fennel beans into her hand, "Then sit here and talk to us old women."
Yao Niang didn't answer, "Thank you Ma'am, but I can't eat this."
A woman next to her interjected: "You old woman is too. Mrs. Su is in charge of the little princess's breastfeeding. How can she eat this kind of thing."
Mrs. Wang was not annoyed either, she smiled and said, "I forgot about this."
Yao Niang was a little embarrassed: "I'd better find something to do, I'll help Xiang Cao and the others." Then, she went to the open space on the right side of the door, where two girls were squatting.
One is called Vanilla, and the other is called Xiangxiang, both of whom are rough maids in the kitchen.
"Nurse Su, sit down." Xiang Cao went to get a small stick and handed it to Yao Niang, and said to her: "How can I ask you to help us, just order like this, and Xiangxiang and I will finish it in a while."
She took out a dry cucumber from the vegetable basket at hand, washed it outside, and brought it back to Yaoniang.
"It's so juicy, you can try it."
Yao Niang could only take it, put it in her mouth and ate it in small bites, watching Vanilla and the two of them choose the dishes.
Everyone chatted a few gossips with Yaoniang first, asked the princess how she slept soundly at night, and then went elsewhere.
Most of them were trivial matters in the mansion, such as which woman had a quarrel with others, which girl was killed in front of the master. This palace seems to be quite big, but in fact the back house only takes up one-third of it. Everyone looks up and sees down, and some trivial matters will inevitably be passed on from you to me.
"Hey, you don't know, today I went out and ran into a fight between Ling'er from Liuchun Pavilion and Meng'er from Ruguixuan." It was a woman named Zhao who spoke. There is a big show.
For a moment, everyone looked over, and some couldn't help telling her to speak quickly.
"What could it be? It's not for some trivial matter. The big kitchen took the food box for Liuchun Pavilion and gave it to Ruguixuan by mistake. Now that Liuchun Pavilion is so popular, and His Highness is in the house, then Ling'er will Extraordinarily arrogant, stopped Meng'er on the way, and gave her two slaps across the face."
"Tsk tsk, that girl Meng'er looks quite fresh, her face is swollen from these two slaps."
"That's not right! That little face was red and purple, like a purple eggplant, and it swelled up on the spot. I remember that Ling'er and Meng'er used to have a rift. The museum has no face. Concubine Hu is also a temper tantrum, and when she comes back, she will be assigned to Ling'er to hang up. This is not a combination of new and old hatred, and it will be right."
Ling'er and Meng'er are both meal-providing girls. Now in the Prince Jin's mansion, apart from Zhaohui Hall where King Jin lives, Siyi Courtyard where Princess Jin lives, and the Xiaokua Courtyard where the princess lives, the meals in other places are from big kitchen. Concubine Hu Fang once mentioned that she wanted to set up a small kitchen in the Liuchun Hall, but unfortunately she was rejected by Princess Jin, so the Liuchun Hall, like the other courtyards, used the big kitchen for meals.
"Tsk tsk, next time your highness returns to the mansion, moths will appear in the Liuchun hall. When your highness leaves the mansion..." The rest of the words were left unsaid, but everyone knew what it meant.
Isn't it just relying on His Highness's power to show off that he is favored.
But people have pets.
When this is mentioned, everyone's eyes can't help but change, becoming very ambiguous and content.
"Hey, don't talk about it. Just follow the momentum of the Liuchun Pavilion. His Highness stayed there yesterday. Maybe Siyi Court will do something..." As he spoke, the man seemed to suddenly realize that Yao Mother's origin, immediately fell silent.
The women hurriedly glanced at each other and changed the topic.
Yaoniang listened with her ears upright, but what she thought in her heart was whether other people talked about her in the same way in her previous life.
At the same time, she paid more attention to the fact that King Jin stayed at the Liuchun Hall for two consecutive nights. But why did she see King Jin in the small building? Could it be the fake King Jin
