Chapter 038 Settled

Hongling never left, but still stood in the shade under the lilac tree, and said softly: "I'll wait here, Aunt Yu is afraid to look for me for a while."

"It's time for Sister Hongling to be done." Fangcao laughed and pulled Hongyao to the Sishu Office.

Yu Shouzhu was indeed sitting in the house. Seeing that they were coming, Wen Yan explained a few words, and then ordered people to take two pairs of silver hairpins, two pairs of white earrings and a box of silk flowers from the small warehouse. He handed them over to the red medicine. He warmly reminded: "You must not be too humble when you go outside in the future. These are all useful."

He said and laughed again: "You are lucky. It happened that this year I changed my style. I look better than in previous years. This is a year-on-year example. Don't lose it."

Hong Yao held it with both hands, Qu Xing bowed and stepped aside.

The Sixing Bureau often walks around the six palaces, and the clothes are not good and the clothes are too simple. The palace people dress more fancy, which means to be auspicious.

Fangcao stepped forward and replied.

She was not as reserved as Hong Yao. She was talking and she had to make an expression from time to time. Yu Shouzhu only listened with a smile, which seemed to be extremely lenient towards her.

After she finished speaking, Yu Shouzhu indeed called Hong Ling in and ordered her to take Hong Yao back to her residence first. Then she took out the sign and called an old lady to help Hong Yao pick up her clothes.

Fangcao volunteered and said bravely: "Sisters, go and get your lunch. I'll help you get it. Let me eat it later. If you have anything that sisters can't eat, just give it to me. Don't look at me as short as I'm big."

He said that, he was quite tall and had a small belly. That look really made people laugh.

Everyone laughed, and Yu Shouzhu knocked her with the handle of the fan and scolded her, "I'm so happy to speak."

Fangcao ran out of the house with her head covered, and Yu Shouzhu shook her head helplessly, waved her hand and ordered Shuanghong to retreat.

The residences of the Shangdian Bureau were not far away, and they could only be reached by turning two turns.

Hongling led her way and led her into a courtyard.

Hong Yao looked up and saw green trees and mixed alleys intersecting. The vines hanging on the courtyard walls were only visible. There were roses, wood fragrance, lychee, wisteria, lingxiao, and a bunch of grapes. The fragrance of flowers was faintly scented and the green shadows were scattered, which was even more exquisite than those similar to those outside.

When he arrived here, Hongling slowed down and pointed out everywhere, introducing Hongyao one by one. He said that this was the yard of Cai and Yuan, and that it was the residence of each department, Siyu, Siyuan, and Sideng, as well as the residence of each department, and the residence of each department, Zhang, and the residence of the Nushishi. He also explained in detail.

Hong Yao took a look at the ears.

Hongling is a meticulous person, and she knew in her previous life that otherwise, the "benefit" that year would not have fallen on the other party's head.

With this introduction, the incomplete parts of Hong Yao’s memory were also made up, and she was quite grateful to Hong Ling.

After a moment of speech, the two of them also arrived at their residence.

It was a two-entry yard, and most of the people living in it were the last-class palace maids, including Fangcao.

Because there were not many people, the two of them had enough in one room. In the main room of the second courtyard, there were two great palace maids living in, one was Zhong Ximei and the other Meng Shoulan, who were considered the leader of the courtyard.

It was the time of meals, and there were quite a lot of people in the yard. Hong Yao followed Hong Ling to meet everyone before returning to the house.

The house was slightly smaller than that of Lengxiang Pavilion, because there were only two people living in it, but it was not cramped. The middle of the house was divided into two rooms with a diamond-shaped inner fan. Hong Ling lived in the inner room, and Hong Yao lived in the outer room.

"I don't know that you can't help but heat up. I'll put the cold mat on you first. If you're afraid of the cold, the thin mattress will be placed on the top of the cabinet. You can change it yourself, and the pillow mat is the same..." Hongling said everything in a scattered manner, or where to pick it up, etc., so meticulous that it makes people feel that she is a very good-hearted person.

Only Hong Yao knows what is hidden behind this "heart".

"I'm sorry, I'm thinking so thoughtful for me." Seeing that Hongling finally finished speaking, Hongyao hurriedly thanked her.

Hongling waved her hand with a smile, and helped Hongyao put it in. At a moment, everything was done. Fangcao also brought the rice. The three of them just used the rice in the house, and they went to rest for lunch and didn't mention it.

From this day on, Hongyao was officially settled at Shangdian Bureau.

Compared with the trivial matters of Lengxiang Pavilion, Shangdian Bureau's responsibilities are both heavy and complicated, and they are also responsible for a lot of work, but the benefits are also many.

First, you don’t have to stay there and you can sleep until dawn;

Secondly, the rules are strict and there are few things that bully the small by bullying the big ones. All actions are done according to the palace rules and must not be exceeded.

In other words, if someone dares to order a little palace maid like Liu Xilian to clean up her husband like Hongyao, once the matter is verified, the salary will be fined for the minor ones, the heavy ones will be punished, and even the heavier ones will be beaten to death.

This is not just the rules of Shangyu Bureau, but the rules of the entire Six Bureau and One Department, because after all, the palace ladies are all here to serve their masters. A mere slave dares to make money from their masters. They are simply guilty of being the ones, and even if they die, they deserve it.

In addition to these two, there is another advantage, which is that each performs its own duties and is well organized.

If you are faster and finish your errands early, you will have some time to do your own thing. Don’t be too disconnected and no one will control it.

With these three benefits, the red medicine was naturally like a fish in water. Yu Shouzhu was also happy to see that she was really good at using it, so she soon transferred her to the small warehouse to serve as a service.

Time passed by, and it was June.

On this day, it was the sixth day of the sixth month. Hong Yao got up in the morning to dress up. She saw a few clusters of peony in the corner of the wall, and the tips of the leaves were also yellow. She remembered that she was busy these days, but forgot to water it, so she hurriedly washed it and took a flower pot to water it before she went to get the meal.

This delay was half a moment later than usual when she arrived at the small warehouse where she was working.

Fortunately, she got up early, but she never took the time to sweep the house quickly. She worked with Fang Kui, who was in the same class, to clean the shelf where the debris was placed.

Just after cleaning it up, Yu Shouzhu took Fang and stepped into the yard.

This is a daily routine inspection.

The two hurriedly greeted each other and walked around Yu Shouzhu. Seeing that everything was fine, they smiled and praised him, and then left.

Seeing her and her party go out, Fang Kui let out a long sigh, picked up the palm fan and slapped it hard, and said, "Oh my mother, it's really dangerous today, it's not too late."

Hong Yao also wiped his sweat and nodded, "No, I'm lucky to catch up."

After a while, she turned to the small book desk, opened the paper book and saw a circle on the top of the sixth day of the sixth month.

She thought for a while and said, "I remember that Aunt Yu had ordered that all the good things on the Dragon Boat Festival must be delivered clearly, I think it is today."
