Chapter 9 Is my boss a belligerent?
Eunuch Cheng felt as if someone had stepped on his tail. His hair suddenly exploded. He jumped on his limping feet and rushed to Aunt Huang. His flushed face looked particularly funny, "You yellow-faced old woman understands."
What, those were trimmed by the famous craftsmen hired by Butler Ben Cheng who spent a lot of money to trim them. Do you think anyone who comes to our palace would not praise these flowers and plants for how well they are taken care of?"
Chu Xiaomeng stared blankly at the furious Eunuch Cheng, watching the fun with the attitude of the people who eat melons, I have no melons, but I didn't expect it to be quite exciting.
Eunuch Cheng quarreled with Aunt Huang for a few more times. Aunt Huang was too lazy to pay attention to him and went her own way. Chu Xiaomeng and Danqing also followed behind. Eunuch Cheng had no intention of giving up and followed Aunt Huang.
Next to grandma, she was talking and gesticulating very wonderfully, as if she wanted to seek justice for herself.
"It's not that I'm making fun of you, Nanny Huang. Look, we've been working together for so many years. Why are you still so stubborn and inflexible..."
"What? My boss is not a little bellicose? Aunt Huang, let's make it clear today. Over the years, what has this slave done that I haven't done perfectly and impeccably? Is my loyalty to the prince any less sincere than yours? How can I serve the prince?
No more considerate than you? You yellow-faced old woman, let’s make it clear today..."
...
Danqing and Chu Xiaomeng looked at each other, and the maids and maids who were peeking along the way were obviously not used to it. They all covered their mouths and snickered, enjoying what they saw. Chu Xiaomeng pulled Danqing to keep a certain distance from the two in front, deeply afraid
Innocent people were injured.
Chu Xiaomeng took this opportunity to appreciate the environment of the palace. Just like Grandma Liu when she visited the Grand View Garden, she felt fresh everywhere. She just passed a pond, which made Chu Xiaomeng very excited. She especially likes water and takes a dip in summer.
After swimming in the water for a whole day without going anywhere, with a glass of ice drink, it is truly a summer resort.
Chu Xiaomeng thought, in ancient times, there were no air conditioners or fans in this place, so there were only a few ways to cool off the heat. If I dived into the water, the world would have nothing to do with me.
Chu Xiaomeng was lost in thought while strolling around. She didn't notice that the chattering voice had stopped suddenly, nor did she notice that Eunuch Cheng's wide and fat body was standing in front of her.
Hit it.
"Oh my God, child, I'm talking to you, why are you in such a daze?" Eunuch Cheng's voice sounded above her head, causing goosebumps all over Chu Xiaomeng's body.
"Eunuch Cheng, you...what did you just say? The palace is so beautiful that I was fascinated by it by accident." Chu Xiaomeng gave a silly smile, but she could not ignore Nanny Huang's charming smile.
Scan her eyes.
I don’t know if it was Chu Xiaomeng’s words that made Eunuch Cheng happy. He didn’t see Eunuch Cheng angry. Instead, he looked at Aunt Huang with a proud smile and said, “Look, what did I say? Who is coming to our palace?”
Why don't you praise how well our palace is managed? My son, tell Eunuch Cheng what you are so fascinated by?"
Seeing Eunuch Cheng staring at her expectantly, Chu Xiaomeng felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and the atmosphere was quite embarrassing.
"Just... just the buildings, everything is beautiful!" Chu Xiaomeng replied seriously, fearing that she would offend any big boss.
Fortunately, before Eunuch Cheng could happily ask any more questions, a boy ran up to him and said that the prince asked Eunuch Cheng to go to the study. Eunuch Cheng immediately happily went to find his prince. Chu Xiaomeng
Only then did he escape.
Compared with Eunuch Cheng's excessive enthusiasm, Nanny Huang seemed more serious and not easy to mess with. After Eunuch Cheng left, the atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point.
"Two girls, this Prince Yan's Mansion is not a place you can just come to. There are many girls in your profession who want to squeeze into the Prince's Mansion, and there are even more outstanding girls who can be selected as the Prince's personal maids, but there are also
Not just anyone can secure this job." Having said this, Nanny Huang deliberately turned her head to look at Chu Xiaomeng, with a certain amount of consideration and ridicule in her eyes.
Chu Xiaomeng seemed to feel infrared rays shooting across her body, which made her feel particularly uncomfortable.
How could she not understand what this old woman meant? She just wanted her to understand her identity more clearly... Chu Xiaomeng was speechless for a while, not to mention that it was Prince Yan who asked her to come to Yanwang Mansion.
Even if it comes by herself, she may not like it.
Seeing that Chu Xiaomeng's face was indifferent and showed no sign of panic, Aunt Huang snorted coldly in her heart. She has lived a long time now and will not be deceived by superficial imagination. As far as she knows, the current Xiaomeng
The girl's film took a lot of twists and turns.
Aunt Huang took them to a courtyard. There was also a plaque hanging at the gate of the courtyard. Chu Xiaomeng murmured and read out, "Yongqin Courtyard" should be specially used for the girls in the mansion to live. The courtyard is not small, but
She was also organized in an orderly manner. As soon as Nanny Huang entered the door, everyone in the yard who was busy with other things put down their work and immediately came forward to wait for orders.
"These two girls are new here. Tell them what taboos there are in this house. Mother Liu, has the house of the girl who just left yesterday been tidied up?" Nanny Huang said with a straight face.
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman on the side who thought she was about the same age came forward.
"It's all packed up. Have you chosen the candidate?" The woman who spoke seemed to have some identity. Her clothes were different from those of the other girls, but she was much more amiable and approachable than Aunt Huang. Little Chu
Meng thought secretly in her heart.
There were many girls in the yard. After hearing what the old woman said, they all raised their heads and looked at Chu Xiaomeng and Danqing. Chu Xiaomeng also glanced at them to say hello and return the favor. From the time she entered the palace to now, she felt that everything
The eyes were all on them, and this feeling was particularly uncomfortable. It reminded Chu Xiaomeng of the uniform glances cast by her classmates every time she was late.
"Chu Xiaomeng, introduce yourself." Nanny Huang said calmly.
Chu Xiaomeng was suddenly called by name, and her thoughts that were racing around suddenly came back together. Then she gave a sincere smile and said with a smile: "Hello everyone, I am Chu Xiaomeng, and I am the prince's personal bodyguard."
Girl, I just arrived today, I hope everyone will take good care of her."
Her round eyes were curved with a smile, and her fair and tender face was slightly reddish by the sun. Her signature smile was absolutely stunning. Chu Xiaomeng's innocent look looked very harmless. She glanced at it
Everyone's reaction seems to be pretty good.
After Nanny Huang left, the little girls in the yard immediately gathered around and stared at Chu Xiaomeng and Danqing with curious faces.
"Are you really brought into the palace by the prince himself?" A girl standing in front of Chu Xiaomeng looked curious.
Chu Xiaomeng nodded blankly, didn't she think this was a magical thing?
After receiving Chu Xiaomeng's answer, the girls were in an uproar, and gradually someone said: "The prince is very strict with his personal maids. He has been replaced by many girls before, for various reasons. You actually became the prince's personal maid, that's terrible
Be careful."
"Yes, yes! Our palace also has a lot of rules..."
...
Voices like this kept coming and going, one person was yelling at them, and they were noisy. Chu Xiaomeng and Danqing looked in a daze and couldn't say anything. They waited until Liu Ma spoke to relieve them.
Danqing was arranged to live with other girls, and Chu Xiaomeng had a separate room. The house was neatly tidied. In addition to a single bed, there was also a small table of her own and a small wooden box for personal belongings. Chu Xiaomeng
Both Meng and Danqing came empty-handed, so the small wooden box had to be left empty.
Mother Liu gave her three sets of maid uniforms and undergarments. Chu Xiaomeng felt the texture and found that the material didn't look too bad, and the style was naturally better than what ordinary girls wear. How could I say it?
The Chu Mansion can't compare with the Prince's Mansion. The girls here are very particular about the clothes they wear. As the eldest lady of the Chu Mansion, Chu Qianqian only has a few shabby clothes, which she must have worn for several years.
Speaking of which, this palace is not as scary as they said. At least they considered that she and Danqing were new arrivals, so they were not rushed to work and were allowed to wander around to familiarize themselves with the environment. It was a pity that Chu
Xiaomeng was very tired today and her legs were still sore, so she just stayed at Yongqinyuan.
Chu Xiaomeng stood at the door of her house, watching the girls from Yongqinyuan walking in and out. She felt that it was much more interesting than in Chu Qianqian, a place where birds didn't poop and chickens didn't lay eggs.
The girls here seem to be of all ages, the youngest one looks to be only eight or nine years old, which would be considered child labor in modern times.
Chu Xiaomeng looked here and there, eyes blank, Liu Ma came over with Danqing, and Chu Xiaomeng came back to her senses.
"Xiao...Xiaomeng." Danqing was very excited to see Chu Xiaomeng. She almost forgot all about what Chu Xiaomeng told her. The word "miss" almost blurted out, but Chu Xiaomeng said harshly.
He glared.
"Hello, Mother Liu." Chu Xiaomeng greeted her superior very obediently. She was new here. Whether in modern or ancient times, Chu Xiaomeng still knew how to behave.
Mother Liu seemed to have a good impression of Chu Xiaomeng. When she saw Chu Xiaomeng calling her such a sensible name, she didn't look like a superior on her face. Chu Xiaomeng cursed, this was much easier to deal with than Aunt Huang.
"You don't have to be so formal. Everyone comes to the Prince's Mansion to work. There is no status distinction as long as they come for a long time. Our Prince's Mansion is not an ordinary family, and we are the most humane. As long as you abide by the rules and do your part,
You will be safe and sound in the palace." Liu Ma stepped forward and took Chu Xiaomeng's hand, and said sincerely.
Before Chu Xiaomeng could say anything, Danqing nodded wildly with excitement and said, "That's right, compared to the Chu Mansion we stayed in before, the Wang Mansion is really great."
