Chapter 228
"Yes." Everyone replied in a hurry.

Yan Rusi smiled faintly, and said, "Everyone knows that I am still in charge of Qizhenhui. Although there are not many things on weekdays, it is inevitable that sometimes I will be busy for a while, so the housekeeping depends on the number of people. Help, especially Steward Zhao, you know better than anyone else the inside and outside of this palace, and I will ask for more advice from now on."

Zhao Quan said modestly, "The princess is serious. If there is anything wrong, the princess can just order it."

Others also said one after another, "Yes, as long as the princess has a word, we will do whatever we want."

Yan Rusi smiled with satisfaction and said, "I remember when I was young, every New Year, the master would give me a red envelope. Sometimes the red envelope contained a few copper coins, and sometimes it was a surprise gift. Today We have a chance to gather here, and the prince and I have prepared some gifts for everyone."

"Yunyin, go to the back and take the things."

Yunyin hurriedly got up and opened the curtain, and after a while came over with a gleaming white envelope, there were ten of them, 20 taels each.

Murong Ling said in a low voice, "This is mainly what the concubine wants. 20 taels per person is considered a red envelope for the Chinese New Year."

Leading the way hurriedly stood up and helped Yunyin hand out the money.

20 taels of silver is not too much, but it is not too little. Generally, a servant is only two taels of silver for a year, and a respectable servant is five taels, and the most is no more than ten taels.

After receiving the money, everyone hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to express their gratitude, "Thank you, my lord and concubine, for your reward."

"Get up, and just do your best to help the princess take care of the palace in the future." Murong Lin said indifferently.

At a quarter of Xu time, the small teahouse will also close.The tea was already ice-cold, and the table was full of pastries and only ate two or three. Facing the apologetic expression on the boss's face, Bai Muyun snorted softly, got up and strode away.

After watching the fireworks on the street for a while, I walked to the gate of the Three Kings Mansion before I knew it.Seeing the festive appearance decorated with lights and festoons at the door, Bai Muyun suddenly stopped in his tracks and became dazed.What is she doing now?

Bai Muyun squeezed out a forced smile and let out a long sigh.He was so boring, what else could she do?Naturally, they celebrated the New Year happily with Murong Lin. The palace must have delicious food, and it must be much warmer than outside.

When Bai Muyun was thinking with emotion, the door suddenly opened with a bang, which made him dodge in a hurry and hide aside.

Yunyin came out with a basket of hot food. It was left over from the reunion dinner just now. The kitchen said it would be thrown away. She felt it was a pity, so she wanted to come out to see if there were any stray dogs or cats.Who would have thought that when she saw a man in black, she trembled in fright, and after she came to her senses, she hurriedly chased after the black figure.There was no way for Bai Muyun to escape, so he just appeared in front of Yunyin.

As soon as he saw Yunyin, Bai Muyun recognized her. Isn't this the woman who was beaten unconscious by him that day?

"This is for you to eat." Yunyin smiled enthusiastically, and stuffed the basket in Bai Muyun's hands.

Bai Muyun's expression froze, and then he realized that Yunyin regarded him as a beggar, and quickly explained, "I'm not..."

Before he finished speaking, Yunyin said earnestly, "It's hot, but it's still clean, eat it quickly."

The aroma in the basket kept coming out, and it was bundled into a thread and pierced into Bai Muyun's nose, his stomach instinctively made a gurgling sound.Speaking of which, he hadn't eaten for a whole day, and the cakes in the small teahouse were really hard to swallow, so he didn't eat a few pieces at all.

After hesitating for a moment, Bai Muyun opened the basket, took out two dishes and one dish of rice and put them on the ground, then sat down and began to eat.After all, it was hot, and after taking two bites, the greedy worms in his stomach were lured out, and his appetite was huge.

Yunyin laughed dumbly, and said, "Look at you, eat slowly, and be careful of choking."

Saying that, Yunyin squatted down, took out a handkerchief and wiped the scum around Bai Muyun's mouth.Bai Muyun suddenly lost his mind, stared blankly at Yunyin, and put the spoonful of food he had just scooped up into his mouth in a daze.However, just as he was about to swallow, he felt something was wrong, and then his stomach began to churn.

Seeing Bai Muyun's face changed drastically, Yunyin asked anxiously, "What's wrong with you?"

Bai Muyun choked up twice, turned sideways and vomited wildly.

Seeing this, Yunyin hurriedly raised his hand, ready to feel his pulse, but Bai Muyun subconsciously threw it away forcefully.He never liked to be touched by others, especially strangers. This is a habit developed as a killer. If there is any trouble, he will think that others are going to attack him.

Not seeing Bai Muyun's disgusted face, Yunyin grabbed his hand again and said urgently, "Don't move, I'll take your pulse to see if you're sick and why you're vomiting so hard."

Bai Muyun froze, immediately raised his other hand to wipe his mouth, then turned his head and looked at Yunyin quietly.For the first time, a stranger cared so much about him, on this cold New Year's Eve night.

Yunyin frowned tightly, and said to herself, "No, the pulse is normal. What's going on? Is it a disease I don't know about?"

Yunyin let go of Bai Muyun's hand and said, "I'll check your breath again."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and ran towards Bai Muyun's face, but he passed by without a trace.

Bai Muyun said flatly, "No need, I'm not sick, it's just that I accidentally ate meat just now, that's why..."

"You can't eat meat?" Yunyin asked in surprise.

Bai Muyun nodded.

Yunyin looked at Bai Muyun's thick hair, and asked in bewilderment, "Why is that? You're not a monk?"

Bai Muyun pursed his lips, showing hesitation.Seeing this, Yunyin hurriedly smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to inquire about your privacy, if it's inconvenient, don't tell me."

Bai Muyun said indifferently, "When I was young, my family was poor and couldn't afford it. Later, my life improved, but I don't know why, when I eat this meat, it always makes me sick."

Seeing Bai Muyun's sad face, Yunyin was filled with emotion suddenly, she sat down next to him, and said in a low voice, "I used to be like you, I was lonely and alone, and I was most afraid of New Year's Eve every year, because on that day the street sold food. Everyone has gone home, even if I have money, I can only go hungry."

Bai Muyun opened his mouth, wanting to ask how Yunyin knew he was alone?But after thinking about it, I understood that the person who appeared at someone else's gate in desperation on New Year's Eve was not lonely and helpless, what else could it be?

Yunyin suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, pursed her lips, and the sentimentality faded away, leaving only rejoicing and joy, "But it's different now, the prince and princess treat me very well, they treat me like a family member, the most important thing is Yes, the concubine gave me a family-like feeling, and I will no longer have to be afraid of being alone on New Year's Eve."

"Really?" Bai Muyun whispered, as if he was asking Yunyin, or talking to himself.
