Chapter 3 She is the one who is not favored and has no children to support
Chu Yu was in a daze when she first traveled here. The famous Yongzheng was her husband, and she was the short-lived queen of Yongzheng in history. She was not favored and could not support her only child.
.
It is now the thirty-third year of Kangxi. Emperor Kangxi is still in his prime, and it is still early for the Fourth Master to become emperor.
Chu Yu thought it was better to ease the relationship with the Fourth Master. He was his direct leader and was bound to him for life.
She is also someone who has watched Qing palace dramas. Emperor Yongzheng had many favorite concubines, including the famous Concubine Nian and Concubine Xi. Who doesn't know about them?
And Concubine Qi, who gave birth to many children for Yongzheng, has a worrying future if she thinks about it.
Fourth Master doesn't like her very much now. After all, she has a bit of a criminal record, right?
Chu Yu thinks that in order to have a better life in the future, she has to work hard, maybe there will be a turn for the better.
After all, those beloved concubines don’t know where they are yet, right?
"Master, please get up, it's already midnight." Xing'er called Chu Yu softly from outside the curtain, and Chu Yu snorted twice and continued to sleep.
Xing'er seemed to be used to it, and the master liked the lazy bed more and more.
She didn't rush, and waited for nearly an hour. When she heard some movement, Xing'er softly called someone to come in to serve her, and she gently opened the curtain.
Seeing this, Xing'er's face turned red and she wished she could lower her head to the ground.
Yesterday, Zaoer finally finished the little clothes Chu Yu asked her to make, and Chu Yu put them on that night.
Myolie has also seen the finished product, but wearing it on her master will inevitably make people blush.
She wore an improved red bellyband and nightgown on her upper body, but the straps of the nightgown were opened, and the fiery red bellyband hanging around her neck was exposed, and the skin lining it was as white as jade.
He stretched his arms upward and yawned by the way, half-covering his head, showing an indescribable charm, and the moving eyes made people panic even more.
Myolie had never seen such a scene before, and she felt that she would never forget it in this life.
My master is so good-looking, Xing'er really feels that this is what a favored woman should look like. I can't imagine how that man can escape?
Even if he is the Fourth Master, he is still a man, right?
Inexplicably, Myolie was looking forward to the fourth master seeing his master. It was said that the fourth master had not seen his master for nearly half a year.
Chu Yu didn't know what her girl was thinking, but seeing her blushing shyly, she thought it was strange. Myolie was usually a very well-behaved girl.
"Little beauty, are you willing to marry me and become my wife? I will love you very much." Chu Yu pretended to be a gangster teasing a good girl, and reached out to hook Myolie's chin.
"Master, you are really... you are really..." Xing'er hesitated for a long time without saying anything. Her face became even redder with embarrassment, and her ears were also red, and it was about to reach her neck.
Seeing her like this, Chu Yu laughed even harder.
The master and servant laughed for a while, and Xing'er helped Chu Yu get up and wash up.
Half an hour later, Chu Yu sat at the dinner table, her nose twitched, and then she became energetic.
Xing'er thought that her master was really cute, and completely forgot about the rogue way she had just teased her.
With a smile on her face, she quickly filled a bowl of vegetable porridge and placed it in front of her. "Master, please warm your stomach first. Today, I specially asked the kitchen to make your favorite pan-fried buns. They are just out of the oven and are piping hot."
"Yeah, I'll do it myself," Chu Yu said, taking the chopsticks.
Xing'er's eyes widened when she saw that her master was eating delicious food.
My master has finally recovered from his illness. He is no longer as crying as before in the past half month, which is great.
Xing'er didn't know that her original master was no longer alive, and now it was Chu Yu who had traveled through time, so he naturally ate well and slept well.
Now that the fourth master has not yet moved to another house, Chu Yu and the fourth master live in his elder brother's residence, which is the third east residence of Qiandong fourth residence.
The main meals in the palace are naturally served in the imperial dining room. According to the rules of the Qing Dynasty, there are only two meals a day. Breakfast is usually at seven or eight o'clock in the morning, dinner is usually at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and snacks can only be eaten at other times, so the prince The ladies in charge of the courtyard and each palace generally have their own small kitchens.
Chu Yu is different from the original owner. After she found out that she was a little rich woman, she was not stingy with her money. It is true that money can make the world go round. She is living a happy life now.
The small kitchen has been bustling ever since Chu Yu traveled through time, because Chu Yu eats three meals a day without skipping a meal.
In addition, Chu Yu was a little unaccustomed to the food in the imperial dining room, so the small kitchen came to great use and became the envy of everyone in the main courtyard.
It’s not that the meals in the imperial dining room are not good, it’s just that in the Qing Dynasty, meat dishes are the main ones, with few green vegetables, and the variety of dishes is scary.
Although it is exquisitely made, it is still greasy and often comes out lukewarm.
In fact, the warm food is quite good, and the dining room is not close to their Dongsan residence. It is winter now, and the warm food is the result of the money spent by the original owner. The master in the palace also eats a lot of cold food. But Chu Jade doesn't want to wrong herself. She just likes to eat like this. Using a small kitchen is just to spend some money on ingredients. Why not do it so that she can eat well?
The most important thing for Chu Yu now is money. She found that her own dowry may not be used up in several lifetimes.
Now I can’t leave the Forbidden City. I spent my money on food and clothing without losing anything. It feels like I have too much money and no place to spend it... It’s really... refreshing!
I think a few days ago, she saw a very good-looking little girl whose clothes were a little thin, and she was rewarded with money.
She felt that this girl had good looks and was in a good mood, so she should give her some money.
But Zaoer was very angry. Master, do you know that others say you are taken advantage of?
Besides, the people in Chu Yu’s small kitchen really have two brushes.
The eunuch in charge of the small kitchen is called Wang Dali. He is in his thirties this year. He is a fat man who loves to think about food. He also has an apprentice named Xiao Anzi, who is also a lovable child.
Chu Yu wanted to eat pan-fried buns before, but with just a few more explanations, Wang Dali cooked them properly.
The pan-fried buns in front of me make people drool. The bottom of the skin is fried to a golden brown and crispy, with some sesame seeds sprinkled on top. It smells delicious. One bite fills your mouth with soup. The skin is not broken and not burnt. The fillings are also Chu Yu likes chicken and carrots. She accidentally ate too much.
Most of the food on the table was left untouched. Qingmiao, who was standing closer and still young, took a peek at the plate of fat meat and swallowed silently.
Seeing her like this, Chu Yu stood up and said: "Xing'er, you guys, stop standing around and eat quickly."
"Hey, thank you, Master, for the reward." The girls responded happily.
Qingmiao was so happy, and Xing'er was naturally happy too. Their servants had no fixed time for eating, often eating cold food, and sometimes just eating some steamed buns with pickles. This was all to reduce trouble and serve the master better. , it is not easy to eat hot rice.
Chu Yu couldn't help but laugh when she saw them eating.
She likes to watch jujubes eating the most. The little girl is not here today because she is on her day off. Her enthusiasm for eating is so interesting.
Chu Yu likes to eat and share. Delicious food is only fun if we all share it.
I remember when she first asked several girls to sit down and eat together, they were so frightened that they all turned pale and knelt down. Being able to do this now is progress.
She felt a little sorry for her girls. They were in their teens and had to serve her. The rules in this palace were very strict and nothing could be done carelessly. Who wouldn't be a little princess if they were born in modern times?
Chu Yu is now the prince of Fujin. According to the rules, he can have two maids, four eunuchs, four first-class maids, eight second-class maids, and third-class and little maids are not counted.
There is no nun by her side now, but there are two eunuchs, Jiang Fuhai and Xiao Quanzi. There are only two first-class girls, Zaoer and Xing'er, and there are many second-class girls, namely Qingning, Qingmiao, Qingfang,
Qingzhu, Yunzhu, Yunqian, Yunjing, Yunwei. There are now more than a dozen third-class girls and little girls, but Chu Yu has not recognized them all yet.
There are only a few people in her palace. Who is willing to follow the unpopular Fujin?
All thoughtful people have found a new way out. If they are taken aback by these four blessings and are taken out of the palace in the future, will they not be able to get ahead for the rest of their lives?
Now most of the remaining ones are honest and responsible. Of course, there are no other good ways out.
At present, Chu Yu is still very satisfied with the people around her. When Jianfu leaves the palace in the future, she will try to take them all away, and those who serve her loyally will not be wronged.
