Queen's Development

Chapter 14 Moon Letter
After listening to Yuzhi, that thin and frail figure appeared in her mind. For some reason, she felt a little sour in her heart...

But she was always unwilling to let unhappy things stay in her heart for too long, so she smiled and said: "I said, it turned out to be the second son's clothes!"

Aimei got up and fetched some water with a bucket, soaked the clothes with clean water, took out a delicate wooden box, opened the box and let Yuzhi smell it: "Yuzhi, what does it smell like!"

Seeing that there were two pieces of fragrant soap in the jade box, one was round and the other was rose-shaped, very delicate, so she took it and smelled it, and found that the round one smelled like mint, while the rose-shaped one smelled like roses. smell, said: "such a good thing, where did you get it?"

In the palace, only masters can use fragrant soap, and they still use it to wash their hands and face; generally, maids use clean water to wash their faces, and cotton oil soap made from cotton oil to wash clothes.

Aimei lowered her head shyly and timidly: "The second young master rewarded me..."

After listening to Aimei's words, although she felt slightly disappointed, Yuzhi did not have the sourness just now - she thought that the second son treated her differently, but now it seems that the second son treats Aimei differently.

She smiled and looked at Aimei: "Did Mama Yang ask you to wash the second young master's clothes?"

Aimei nodded with a smile, then smacked the suit of underwear, and began to scrub.

After hearing this, Yu Zhi thought silently while doing laundry: Mama Yang asked me to cook for the second son, and asked Aimei to wash the clothes for the second son. What is her purpose?
She quickly thought of several possibilities, and she felt that her imagination was rich enough, so she couldn't help but stop thinking about it.

It was time to wash the clothes, but Yuzhi didn't fetch enough water, so she got up to fetch water from the well.

Seeing that Yuzhi was silent, Aimei looked at Yuzhi with a smile on her face, and saw that Yuzhi's black hair was combed up and tied into a loose bun, her snow-white face had a pair of eyes shining brightly, and she wore a The simple white silk jacket and sapphire blue satin skirt are both beautiful and refreshing.

She smiled and asked, "Yu Zhi, have you been to Mama Yang's place these few days?"

Yuzhi smiled and shook her head.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps from behind.

Yuzhi looked up and found that Hong Yuli was coming, so she greeted with a smile: "Yuli, you are here too!"

Hong Yuli entered the Shuijing Pavilion with a straight face, responded lazily, walked to the side of the well, and threw the wooden basin in her hand on the ground with a "bang".

Both Aimei and Yuzhi were a little surprised.

Yuzhi and Hong Yuli were more familiar, and said, "Yuli, what's wrong?"

Hong Yuli groaned angrily and did not speak. Seeing that the clothes she had brought had fallen to the ground, she angrily stepped forward and stomped her feet a few times. Only then did she relieve her anger, moved a small stool and sat down.

Seeing that the clothes Hong Yuli was stepping on were men's clothes of high quality, Yuzhi guessed that they were the clothes of Lin Yi, the third son Yuli served, so she kept silent and concentrated on washing her clothes.

While washing, Hong Yuli murmured to herself in a low voice: "...What are you so proud of! You think you're born with a good status, so I'll catch up with you? Bah!...You think you're a big maid, so I should let you, Raw enough that pigs don't eat dogs and dogs..."

After venting herself for a while, Yuli finally noticed Yuzhi and Aimei.

She didn't know Aimei very well, but she knew Yuzhi very well, so she asked Yuzhi, "Yuzhi, have you selected a servant girl for Second Young Master's room in Lingxiao Court?"

Yuzhi was taken aback when she heard the words, then paused, and said, "I didn't hear that!"

While immersing her clothes in clean water to rinse, Yuli sighed and said, "We at Lingyun Court haven't heard of it either! But last time I met Zhu Lingling, Zhu Lingling said that she had already served the Eldest Prince!"

Lingyun courtyard is the courtyard where Lin Yi, the third son of Concubine Li, lives.

Zhu Lingling was assigned to the Lingfeng Courtyard of the eldest son Lin Yu, and the master was Lin Yu, the eldest son of the Xingping County Prince's Mansion.

Aimei said softly: "Aren't we all serving the master?"

Yuli snorted and laughed: "Come on, don't tell me that you two don't know what serving is! The other maids in the county prince's mansion are all homeborn children who don't spend a penny, or cats and dogs bought for ten taels of silver, but He bought us here at a high price of tens of taels of silver, and locked us up in the other village to learn things. Why? Isn’t it just to let us sleep with the master! Heroes don’t ask the source, as long as the master is well served, we can even do it. Not the princess, but the side concubine, wife and aunt can always do it?!"

Yuzhi: "..."

Although Yuli had been a bit eccentric before, she was not so ostentatious. What kind of stimulation did she receive in Lingyun Academy?

Aimei was also speechless.

She was originally two years older than Yuzhi and Yuli, and she is 16 years old this year, so she advised: "Yuli, the palace is full of ears, so don't say such things again!"

Yuli glanced at Aimei, then looked at the snow-white men's coat that was being washed in Aimei's tub, and suddenly asked, "Aimei, whose clothes are you washing? Eldest Young Master? Second Young Master ? Could it be... the prince?"

Aimei's face was flushed, she said nothing, and ignored Yuli.

Seeing this, Yuzhi was both angry and funny, and said, "Yuli, we are only 14 years old, how could the master let a maid who is under 15 years old... wait, stop talking nonsense!"

"My monthly letter has come!" Yuli looked at Yuzhi confidently, "Could it be that your monthly letter hasn't come yet?"

Yuzhi: "..."

Now it was her turn to blush.

Yuzhi's clothes had already been washed, and she was wringing out the water. She put the clothes in the tub and said with a smile, "I've finished washing, I'm leaving first! Goodbye!"

Yuli likes to get to the bottom of things, she straightened her neck and asked Yuzhi: "Yuzhi, your monthly letter is really not here yet? Really?"

Yuzhi didn't reply, she walked out with her head down and her face blushing while hugging the tub.

Aimei was also very surprised, thinking: Usually girls come when they are 13 years old, but Yuzhi is 14 years old this year, why hasn't she come yet?
However, she changed her mind and remembered the news that Xia's mother had told her in private, and thought: "It's good news that Yuzhiyue's letter didn't come..."

Thinking of the handsome and handsome appearance of the Second Young Master, Ai Mei blushed slightly.

Yuli was still talking to herself: "It's strange, Yuexin hasn't come yet at the age of 14, is there something wrong with Yuzhi? Could it be that she is a natural stone girl..."

Beifeng delivered Yuli's words to Yuzhi who hadn't gone far.

Even though Yuzhi has always been smart, she also has some doubts that she is really a stone girl as Yuli said.

She didn't know what a stone girl was, she only knew that other women would have monthly letters when they were twelve or thirteen years old, but stone girls would not have monthly letters and would not have children.

Without Yuexin, Yuzhi is not afraid, what she is afraid of is not being able to have children!

Yuzhi really likes children very much. When she was in her hometown, because she liked children, she often helped the husband's house in the village library to look after the children. Because of this, the husband and his wife acquiesced in her not going out. Take classes in the library.

Thinking that she will not have her own children in the future, Yuzhi, who has always been strong and willed, feels for the first time that her future is uncertain, and she feels very uncomfortable.

Yuzhi was very strong, holding the wooden basin in her left arm, slightly lifting her skirt with her right hand, while thinking about something, she walked quickly towards Lingxiaoyuan.

Unexpectedly, at the corner, Yuzhi was about to turn, but someone suddenly turned around from the opposite side, and the two collided with each other.

Yuzhi only cared to protect the wooden basin in the crook of her left arm, but she bumped into the other person's body, and her still-developing breasts collided with the other's chest at once, causing her to cry out in pain, and burst into tears on the spot come out.

The other party was not much taller than her, and was also stunned. He covered his chest with his hands and coughed while supporting the flower wall.

Yuzhi quickly came back to her senses, ignoring the severe pain in her chest, she hurriedly apologized to the man: "I'm sorry, I didn't see the way!"

The man was a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old, with a lovely baby face, his skin was like white porcelain, his eyes were so dark that they were almost blue, his nose was straight, his lips were bright red, he looked like a natural fairy boy like.

It's a pity that Xiantong seemed to have a bad temper, he gave Yuzhi a hard look, and said, "Don't you have eyes?"

The voice is rough and still in the stage of changing.

Yuzhi was indeed at fault, and hurriedly said: "I was careless, I'm sorry!"

Xian Tong took out a clean white handkerchief from nowhere, frowned and wiped the place where Yu Zhi touched the snow-white robe, then pinched the white handkerchief with two fingers in distaste, feeling resentful. away.

Yuzhi quietly looked at his back, wearing a jade crown on his head, a white robe with silver cloud patterns on his body, and a purple jade belt around his waist, it should be some male master in the mansion.

The prince is 33 years old this year, the eldest son Lin Yu is this year, the second son Lin Jia is 16 years old this year, and the third son Lin Yi is 14 years old this year-this master who looks bad-tempered should be the third son Lin Yi!
I didn't expect Yuli to serve such a difficult master, and Yuli was eager to wait in the room. She really... rushed to be disgusted!

After dinner in the evening, Yuzhi lit a lamp in the small attic, put the lamp on the window sill to the east, and sat on the couch in front of the window to do needlework.

Shuiping, who lived here before, and now Aunt Ping, did not take the bedding with her when she left, and Mrs. Zhu, who brought Yuzhi over, said that Aunt Ping had said that she didn't want these things, so Yuzhi took off Aunt Ping's quilt, I re-spread the cotton bed, put on a jade-colored embroidered quilt cover, and spread it on the couch in front of the window. It is thick and thick, and it is comfortable to sit on and do needlework.

I don't know when the wind picked up outside.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the branches of the poplar trees in the small side courtyard "clicked", and the flowers and trees outside the small attic also made a rustling sound, which further enhanced the warmth and tranquility in the small attic.

Yuzhi did needlework for a while, and remembered that she hadn't come to the monthly letter when she was 14 years old. She didn't know if she was a stone girl, and she didn't know if she would have children in the future...

The more she thought about it, the more worried she became, and her always sunny heart was suddenly shrouded in haze.

But after Yuzhi thought about it for a while, she soon began to explain herself:
The monthly letter hasn't arrived yet?Maybe the monthly letter will come in a few days!
Is it a stone girl?Just find an opportunity to ask someone who understands it!

Will not have children?There are so many poor children who have been abandoned by adults, it is enough to adopt one!
Thinking of this, Yuzhi's mood quickly improved, and she started sewing happily again.
