Queen's Development

Chapter 5

Yuzhi was taken aback when she heard the words, and looked at the rough envoy.

Isn't it weird that the son's eldest maid became the father's aunt?
The rough envoy didn't look at Yuzhi at all, and directly opened the door and walked in: "Sister, come and take a look, is this room still tidy?"

Yuzhi followed and walked in, and found that the room was really neat and tidy, with tables, chairs, suitcases and beds in place, but there was a layer of dust.

She hurriedly held the rough envoy's hand and said with a smile, "Thank you, mom! I don't know what's your mother's name?"

Seeing that the little girl was so cute, the rough messenger woman smiled and said: "The old lady's surname is Zhu, just call me Mrs. Zhu, and if you have anything to do in the future, just call the old lady to do it!"

Sending off Mrs. Zhu, Yuzhi cleaned the house carefully, arranged her luggage, washed her face, combed her hair, changed into clean clothes, and then went to the Lingxiao Courtyard to meet the two maids, Shui Lotus and Water Anemone.

Shui Lian didn't know where to go, only Shui Lian was sitting in the open room of the main room of Lingxiao Courtyard doing needlework.

Yu Zhi hurriedly stepped forward and bent her knees: "I've met Sister Shui Lian!"

Shui Lian took a look at Yu Zhi, lowered her head and continued her sewing, after a while, Fang said lightly, "You are responsible for cleaning the yard in the morning!"

Although this Yuzhi was born with picturesque features, she is still young, let's wait and see!
Lingxiao Court now has two first-class maids, she and Shui Ning, and four second-class maids.

These four second-class maids were born with beautiful faces and beautiful appearances, each with their own strengths, so Shui Lian and Shui Ning focused their attention on the four second-class maids. There was no special regard for a new third-class maid like Yu Zhi. care.

Shui Lian arranged work for Yuzhi, and she officially accepted Yuzhi.

Yuzhi hurriedly answered "Yes".

From then on, Yuzhi was regarded as a member of Lingxiao Academy.

According to the rules of the county prince's mansion, she gets up on time at [-] o'clock every morning, and starts cleaning the yard at [-] o'clock in the morning, trying to clean the yard before everyone gets up, then water the flowers and plants in the Lingxiao courtyard, and then clean the railing and window sill of the main house. After wiping everything, her work for today is considered finished.

A few days later, three third-class maidservants entered the Lingxiao Courtyard, and Yuzhi finally had company.

Yuzhi is very patient in doing things, she gets up before dawn and starts cleaning the yard every day, and when she finishes her work, everyone gets up, and she can go to her small attic to cat, write, read, and do needlework , Take care of the flowers and plants in front of the house.

When it was time to eat, Yuzhi and the other three third-class maids went to serve the older maids, and their days were quite pleasant.

After going like this for a month, Yuzhi and the other three third-class maidservants are all familiar with Qingcha, Vanilla and Xiuyun, and Qingcha is even better among them.

In such a relaxed and happy, cold October came to the world.

On this day, Yuzhi started working on time at three quarters o'clock.

The other maids were still asleep, and the entire Lingxiao Courtyard was shrouded in white mist, making it look empty and very quiet.

Yuzhi felt as if she owned the whole world, her heart was peaceful and happy, quiet and comfortable.

She was not in a hurry, first took a bamboo broom and carefully cleaned the fallen leaves in Lingxiao Courtyard, then filled the copper basin with water, and took a rag to wipe the railing in front of the main building of Lingxiao Courtyard.

After Yuzhi finished her work, she washed her hands with clean water, gently pushed open the gate of Lingxiao Courtyard, and prepared to go back to her residence.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened the door, she heard the sound of vomiting in the east.

Yuzhi was startled, and hurriedly looked over.

I saw a young man in a sapphire blue brocade robe standing in front of the privet bushes by the wall, with his back to her and leaning on the wall to retch.

Standing behind the boy was a servant, who was looking around, as if looking for something.

Seeing Yu Zhi, the young servant hurriedly said: "That little maid, come here!"

Yu Zhi has always been a little soft-hearted, seeing the young man vomiting heavily, she quickly walked over and said softly: "Drink some hot tea and press it, maybe it will feel better!"

The young man just bowed his head and retched, it sounded really painful.

The servant asked Yuzhi, "Are you the new maid from Lingxiao Courtyard?"

Yuzhi nodded, still looking at the young man in blue robe with his back facing her with wonderful eyes, and said in a low voice: "I know a folk remedy to stop vomiting. Shred white radish and mash it, mix it with honey and eat it. , I tried it when I was a kid, and it worked!"

The boy wanted Yuzhi to get this honey white radish puree, but he was a little worried and was hesitating. The boy pressed his chest that was already swollen and aching from vomiting: "Ah Qing, hurry up!"

Even in such an embarrassing situation, his voice was still pleasant, clear and lingering, with the aftertaste of broken jade.

As soon as the words fell, he retched again.

This little servant called "Aqing" hurriedly told Yuzhi: "You help me take care of the master, I will come as soon as I go!"

Yuzhi hurriedly agreed, walked quickly to the boy's side, stretched out her hand and patted him lightly on the back a few times.

Under the brocade robe, the young man's back is thin and seems to be very thin.

He didn't speak, and didn't look back, as if he acquiesced to Yuzhi's behavior.

Yuzhi put her hand on his back again, stroked along the spine from top to bottom a few times, then found the boy's left hand, found the Guannei point on his wrist, pinched it with the tip of her thumb.

The boy covered his mouth with his right hand, and still didn't look back.

At this time, he is really too embarrassed, how can he be seen by others?

While pinching, Yuzhi asked, "Do you feel numb?"

The boy turned his face sideways and shook his head.

Yuzhi took a deep breath and pinched it down forcefully: "Do you feel it now?"

The boy hissed in pain, and muffled: "Yes."

Yuzhi said happily: "I just said it's useful!"

The young man covered his mouth with his right hand, and said sullenly: "Your wrist hurts so much."

Yuzhi: "..."

She resentfully said: "When I was a child, I suffered from a cold and retched, and my neighbor pinched me like this. It is very useful!"

Fearing that her words would not be convincing, Yuzhi added another sentence: "My neighbor is the doctor of our village!"

While Yuzhi was talking, she didn't stop pinching the boy's Guannei acupoint.

The young man let out a soft "hiss", only to realize that the disgusting feeling just now was gone, but his wrist was a little swollen and painful. Knowing that the little girl's technique was still useful, he muffled, "Thank you!"

Yuzhi pursed her lips and smiled: "Give me your right hand, and I'll press it again!"

The young man still didn't look at Yu Zhi, and asked in a low voice, "Is there a cleansing veil?"

Yuzhi took out her own handkerchief from her sleeve pocket and handed it over. Afraid that the young man would dislike it, she explained: "I just washed this handkerchief yesterday, and I haven't used it myself. If you don't believe me, you can smell the handkerchief on it. Soap locust smell!"

Embarrassed for a while, the young man took the handkerchief, wiped the corner of his mouth, folded it and wiped his right hand, and then stuffed the handkerchief into his sleeve pocket.

Yuzhi also had no reason to ask for the dirty handkerchief back, so she didn't speak for a while.

At this moment, the boy named Ah Qing quickly ran over with a teacup.

Seeing Ah Qing coming, Yuzhi smiled and said, "Sisters are about to wake up, I have to fetch hot water for them to wash their faces, goodbye!"

The boy still turned his back to her and did not speak.

Yuzhi was afraid that she might miss Shuilian and the others' water, so she hurriedly turned around and ran towards the water room.

Ah Qing ran to Lin Jia's side, panting, "My lord, I asked Mama Yang to squeeze the radish and honey water for you!"

Mama Yang is Lin Jia's nanny, Lin Jia felt relieved, took the teacup, drank the radish and honey water in it, thought the taste was too strange, and almost vomited again.

He stayed here for a while, until his chest and abdomen felt better, and then he brought Ah Qing into the Lingxiao Courtyard.

The little maid just now had gone to nowhere, and the yard was quiet, presumably those maids were still sleeping.

Lin Jia stood in front of the main room for a moment, brewing for a while, then raised her foot and kicked towards the door of the main room.

Anyway, his reputation is terrible, this time he came back from the capital, if he doesn't behave well, how can he live up to his reputation as a villain in the county palace!
Although there are many maids in Lingxiao Courtyard, only two big maids, Shui Lian and Shui Ning, are eligible to spend the night in Lingxiao Courtyard.

Shui Lian and Shui Xun were sleeping soundly in Lin Jia's bedroom in the dark room of the main landlord, when they were woken up by the loud knocking on the door, they felt a "thump" in their hearts: Second Young Master, Tai Sui is back!

The two of them stood up, and raised their voices: "Second Young Master, this servant is here!"

What responded to them was a loud bang—the door of Mingjian was kicked open!
Shui Lian and Shui Xun rushed out while covering their skirts, seeing that the Second Young Master was squinting at him, they were a little flustered, and hurriedly rushed over: "Second Young Master!"

Seeing the two maidservants coming out of her bedroom with disheveled hair and disheveled dresses, Lin Jia felt sick and frowned, "Get out!"
