Chapter 56 It's like a newborn baby that hasn't gained a firm footing yet!
Luo Changan did not raise her head. Her most important task at the moment was to embroider her forehead. Although Aunt Mei said there was no need to rush, she really couldn't do it too slowly. If she did it too slowly, it would appear to be carelessness.
For forehead protection, it can take as fast as two days, or as slowly as four or five days, and it must be embroidered.
If the embroidery is too fast, people will think it is shoddy; if the embroidery is too slow, it will easily make people think it is incompetent.
After thinking for a moment, he told Xiaotao: "The bamboo pole is hooked behind the utility room door, and the big bamboo frame is in the third compartment on the left of the utility room cabinet. Go get it for her."
"good."
"Oh, tell her that she has to use it here in the next two days and needs to come back early. The snow has been falling very hard these days, and the big tree entering the courtyard has fallen a lot of snow. It has to be knocked down with a hook. The emperor is tall.
, the branches were weighed down by snow, blocking his way in."
"I understand, sister Chang'an."
"Xiao Tao, remember, you must be polite. Don't make any remarks."
"Okay. I understand."
Xiaotao said and went out to get a bamboo pole hook and a big bamboo frame and handed them to Aunt Gui. She said: "Aunt Gui, here you go, this is what you want. I just need to remind you that it will take these two days to use it up."
If you return it in time, the Dragon Sleeping Room is waiting for you to use it."
Aunt Gui wrinkled her nose and said, "Hey, why do you need a bamboo pole and frame in such a hurry? What's the big deal? But this thing is not commonly used, and no palace has prepared it. I saw Changan himself made a bamboo pole hook like this before, and he also
There is a small hand-woven basket, which is very exquisite. I just want to borrow it today to see how stingy it looks."
Xiaotao heard the woman's sarcastic remarks and said: "The snow is falling very hard now, and soon the big tree at the door was bent down. The Emperor is tall, so when you enter the door, you must teach the Emperor to bend down. Besides, you are the one who bends down."
I'm here to borrow something. It was originally made by Sister Chang'an, not from the public. Now that I'm lending it to you, you're complaining?"
Aunt Gui didn't take Xiao Tao seriously and snorted, "It's just that the master of our Yuliu Palace is easy to bully. He has always been indifferent to the world. He's used to you little hooves being arrogant. Now if he is one of the four concubines
One of them came to borrow it, and you knelt down to give it to me. You didn’t even have time to lick it, but we, the Yuliu Palace, had no shame.”
Xiaotao grabbed the bamboo pole and was really angry. Although Sister Changan taught me to be polite, this woman was really too mean.
The fourth concubine has given us such a big hat, so why don’t you borrow it and just return the things."
The woman said nothing more, grabbed the bamboo pole hook and bamboo basket and ran away, cursing as she ran: "You little hooves seeking death, who are you relying on? Someone has been promoted to a junior rank.
Third grade, it’s so incredible that your nostrils are turned upward.”
Xiaotao heard that Mrs. Gui was connoting Luo Changan, and immediately became angry and jealous. When she came to Luo Changan, she squeezed her tears and said, "Sister Chang'an, Mrs. Gui from Yuliu Palace is not a good person. She came here last time to take advantage of the cold weather."
I squeezed Aunt Mei into beating me with my snow water, and today I am not clean, saying that I am bullying others, saying that you have only been promoted to the third rank, and now your nostrils are pointed in the sky."
After hearing this, Luo Changan paused, thought for a moment, and said slowly: "Xiao Tao, you don't have to be angry. First of all, we didn't bully others. If she can't understand, it means she is narrow-minded. Besides, we are indeed useful. It's two days late.
If she doesn't return it, we'll just ask for it. If she has any objections, she won't be able to borrow things from here in the future."
After Xiaotao heard this, she said, "Sister Chang'an, aren't you angry when she says that to you?"
Luo Changan smiled slightly, "This is not a big deal. Except for life and death, everything else is trivial. Xiao Tao, we must find things that are beneficial to our own development from the things we encounter, learn, make progress, and use our
Let’s think about how we can make this matter beneficial to us. Aunt Mei has a saying that I completely agree with, that everything should be based on the same principle.”
Luo Changan nodded his forehead as he spoke.
Xiao Tao then wiped away her tears and stopped crying, "If it was my way, I would have gone to have a fight with that woman. But after the fight, we would lose, right? Aunt Mei would fight again."
People. Hey, Sister Changan, when can we do whatever we want and do nothing if we don’t want to do anything?"
Luo Changan touched Xiaotao's forehead, "It's difficult. Even the emperor can't do whatever he wants. Let alone you and me."
"The emperor is an emperor, can't he do whatever he wants? Sister, why do you think life is so difficult?"
"Look, the emperor can't carry melon seeds and walnuts in his purse like you, nor can he secretly eat jelly beans when going to court. Do you think you are happier than the emperor?"
Xiao Tao suddenly smiled, "Sister Chang'an, you really know how to make people happy. I really shouldn't have taught that woman to make me anxious just now. I should be like Sister Chang'an, as calm as the Buddha."
Luo Changan thought that I was not calm, but patient and dormant, and I didn't have the capital to be arrogant.
Furthermore, I must knock down the snow on the big tree at the door before the emperor comes back. He said he would be back in about seven days, and this is the third day. I don’t want him to be blocked by the snow.
Within the scope of my authority, I must consider all details that can benefit the emperor. The emperor is the key to my settling down in the palace.
I am alive today only because I am a slave of Longqi.

Aunt Gui took the bamboo pole hook and the big bamboo frame, returned to Yuliu Palace, spat, then entered the room, and said in a mean tone: "Luo Chang'an is really putting on a big show today, I'm going to borrow something, she
You didn't give it to me yourself, but you taught that little girl Xiaotao to get it for me, and you even taught that damn girl to force me to return it immediately after using it. This is obviously not giving you face, Miss Xibi."
Liu Yuxi was talking to Song Panyan, who had just entered the palace. When she heard what Aunt Gui said, she looked unhappy and said, "Last time I went to borrow the snow water from previous winter days, didn't she do a pretty good job? Why?
But today you don’t even show your face?”
Aunt Gui lay next to Liu Yuxi's ear and whispered: "That day when I got the snow water, the hoof had just risen to the third level. There was no deep cultivation. It was like a newborn baby that hadn't yet established its feet. Now she is here
From the third rank, she has been sitting firmly. Aunt Mei thinks highly of her. I heard that various palaces go to collect expenses. If Aunt Mei is not available, Luo Changan will handle it. A lot of money flows through her hands.
Do you think it’s because of obesity?”
Xibi snorted disdainfully but jealously.
Aunt Gui continued to be jealous, "She has strong wings, so she won't take you seriously. She must be looking forward to climbing high branches now. I'm not telling you that if one of the four concubines comes to borrow it today, she will definitely have a different look."
