I don't want to be the favorite concubine of this palace anymore

An Muxi didn't expect that Concubine Xu would come to Furong Courtyard just after she had cured herself of the poison. She didn't know if she was here to cause trouble. If so, she wouldn't mind giving her some more unforgettable memories.

But on second thought, although she had obtained the maid's indenture, this also reminded An Muxi that her own identity documents were also in the palace. She had to be prepared for both situations in the future. If Li Rui did not let her go, she would have to find a way to escape by herself.

The identity document must be obtained, and since Nanny Zhao is the prince's person, she will definitely not help him. The only thing he can do is to start with this brainless Concubine Xu.

As she was thinking, she saw Xu Wanying and two personal maids coming in. An Muxi quickly stood up and saluted, then said respectfully: "I pay my respects to the Concubine. Please take a seat. Xiaoqin, serve the tea."

Xu Wanying looked arrogant, and although she was still wearing a luxurious Shu brocade dress, she didn't wear so many pearl hairpins and jewelry on her head. It was obvious that she was afraid that they would be broken again.

She sat at the top seat and stared at An Muxi. There was a hint of jealousy in her eyes, which An Muxi caught.

It seems that this stupid woman loves Prince Rui and is still upset about her sleeping with him, so she is looking for trouble with him. Now she is jumping around again just after detoxification. An Muxi was speechless. If she has the ability, go find Li Rui. It's no use looking for her.

Seeing that her complexion was not good, An Muxi wanted to laugh. It was probably because she had just detoxified and was in a bad mood because of the poisoning, so she lost a lot of weight.

"You are so lucky. The prince actually arranged for you to live in such a nice courtyard and gave you so many maids." The moment she opened her mouth, her tone was full of sourness.

An Muxi smiled and said, "My Lady Concubine, you don't know that the prince arranged for me to live here just to compensate me."

"Although this place is not bad, it is still in the backyard. The prince still values ​​you the most. I heard that he is urging Doctor Gao to prescribe medicine for you all day long."

Xu Wanying was almost confused by the flattery, and she became more pleasing to An Muxi. She looked a little smug, thinking that the prince still had her in his heart.

"You said that the prince arranged for you to live here to compensate you? Why is that?"

"Well, I just know that the prince seemed to have been poisoned by some aphrodisiac that day, and I was temporarily captured by the prince's guards to help him remove the aphrodisiac."

"I have never seen the prince before, how could he be interested in me? Besides, the prince has never asked me to sleep with him since that time. So he didn't ask me to sleep with him because he liked me."

After hearing what she said, Xu Wanying realized that this was how it was like to sleep with the prince that day. The prince didn't ask her to sleep with him just because he liked her. She felt a lot more relieved.

But then she changed her mind and realized that she and the princess were both in the front yard, so close to the prince, but he was still going far away. She became unhappy again.

She heard a few days ago that the prince had arranged a separate courtyard for An Muxi, so she wanted to come and take a look, but she gave up because Hua Lian couldn't go out.

Just now, Doctor Gao brought some medicine to her. Unexpectedly, after she drank the bowl of medicine, her complexion immediately returned to normal.

She couldn't wait to come to An Muxi. She originally suspected that it was this woman who caused her poisoning last time.

Because although the princess in the palace doesn't get along with me, she won't harm me for no reason. After thinking about it, it seems that only An Muxi has a grudge against me.

She originally wanted to question An Muxi, but seeing how respectful she was to her today and what she said made sense, she dispelled some of her doubts.

An Muxi watched her changing expressions and laughed in her heart, she was indeed a fool who was easy to fool.

Then he took out two sketchbooks and handed them over.

"My Lady Concubine, these are the sketchbooks I wrote when I was bored. I'm giving you two of them. You can read them to kill time when you're bored."

Xu Wanying took the two sketchbooks and was shocked when she saw the titles: "The Overbearing Prince Falls in Love with Me" and "Prince, Please Respect Yourself".

She flipped through it casually and was immediately attracted by the content. This book was simply based on her?

Her expression eased a little, and she looked at An Muxi: "Did you write this sketchbook yourself?"

An Muxi nodded quickly and replied, "Yes, if the concubine likes to read it, I will send you a new picture book in the future."

Xu Wanying snorted softly, "You are quite tactful. Well, I don't have anything to do, I just came to see you. After all, I am still in charge of the household affairs of the palace, so I don't have time to chat with you."

After saying that, she stood up and was about to leave: "By the way, remember to send me a new sketchbook next time you have one." She couldn't wait to go back and look at the sketchbook.

An Muxi quickly agreed and sent her out.

After a while, Xiaoyun came back with the completed indenture, and An Muxi called in a few maids.

This time, we had a heart-to-heart meeting with them.

"Your indentures are now in my hands. From now on, you will be completely my servants."

"This is Xiaoyun, and she will be my personal maid from now on. Banxia, ​​Zisu, Baizhi, Chenxiang, the four of you will be responsible for sweeping the yard and the attic with two people each day, rotating every day."

In fact, there were several servants from the palace who were responsible for cleaning the courtyard, so the maids did not have to do any heavy work.

"I will arrange your work according to your situation in the future. For now, just leave it at that. As long as you behave yourself and work hard, I will not treat you unfairly."

The maids were all very happy. They also felt that Young Master An was very considerate of her servants and kind to others.

Before they knew it, it was lunch time and Xiaoqin arranged for two maids to get the food.

An Muxi thought that Xiaoyun hadn't arranged any work yet, so she asked, "Xiaoyun, what can you do?"

Xiaoyun said embarrassedly: "I only know how to cook and embroider. I can also recognize some medicinal herbs."

An Muxi nodded. It was good for a child from a poor family to have some skills. It was probably because she often took care of her younger brother and knew some medicinal herbs.

An Muxi suddenly thought that Dr. Gao should have a lot of medical books, so she went back to borrow a few basic books from him so that Xiaoyun could learn first.

The two maids brought the food back, and this time An Muxi called everyone to the side hall and asked them to sit down and eat together.

Except for Xiaoqin who sat down naturally, the others didn't dare to do so. Xiaoqin said directly: "Everyone please sit down. The master doesn't have to be so particular here."

An Muxi also said: "Yes, now we are all family, when there are no outsiders, we don't need to talk about so many etiquette. You will get used to it in the future."

The few of them sat down. An Muxi looked at the food here. As a concubine, she only had two dishes and a soup for a meal, and the maids' dishes were even simpler, without even any meat.

She remembered that there seemed to be a small kitchen in Furong Courtyard, so she asked, "Who among you knows how to cook?"

Banxia and Zisu both raised their hands, and An Muxi said, "I will go to the big kitchen to get some good ingredients so we can cook for ourselves."

The maids were very happy when they heard this and liked An Muxi even more.

The meals served to the servants in the big kitchen were all the leftovers of the masters, which were not fresh or were about to go bad, and there were very few meat dishes.

We only give them meat dishes during festivals.

An Muxi knew that the oldest maid, Bai Zhi, was only 16 years old, the same age as her. They were still growing up, so it was not okay for them to eat like this.

Since you want to employ them, you must improve their treatment and make them feel a sense of belonging so that they can serve you better.

After dinner, she went to Dr. Gao to borrow some medical books for Xiaoyun. But Dr. Gao's medical books were all advanced editions, and there were no medical books suitable for novices.

It seems that I have to go out of the house tomorrow. I just happened to go to the bookstore to buy some medical books. I wonder if I can meet that handsome boss this time. Suddenly I feel a little bit excited.
