Pet official

After scolding severely, Wang Changan led the people away unsteadily.

Only then did Zhou Jun dare to step forward, and supported Ruan Yunqing, his eyes were red, "Xiao Er..."

Ruan Yunqing rubbed his shoulders, pulled a smiley face, and comforted him: "It's okay. We brothers can be together again. It's not very good."

It was fine if he didn't say this, but upon hearing this, Zhou Jun couldn't hold back anymore, and wailed loudly while hugging Ruan Yunqing, "Little Er... woo... I'm worried every day... I'm scared to death..."

Eunuch Cui kicked him, "Howling, let people hear you and you will be beaten up again. Just come back, don't howl, and don't let Xiao Er enter the house."

Zhou Jun stopped crying and dragged Ruan Yunqing into the small kitchen.Several other people in the room sneered, staring at Ruan Yunqing with disdain on their faces: "I thought it was a crow that turned into a phoenix, but I didn't expect it to be a sparrow that got into the fire. It's as dark as it should be. Turn around , came back in disgrace again. Alas, shameless, shameless. I feel ashamed for him."

The rest of the people laughed, and some people followed the example of the old raven and quacked twice.Everyone heard it, and laughed again.When Zhou Jun heard that he was about to rush up and make a noise with the little eunuchs, Ruan Yunqing stopped him, and persuaded him to come back with some good words.

Zhou Jun muttered a few words reluctantly, glared at the leading eunuch, and shook his fist at him.The little eunuch was not to be outdone, he stuck out his tongue and made a face, and got together with other people to arrange Ruan Yunqing, and then laughed happily.

Ruan Yunqing sighed softly, these little eunuchs have bad mouths, they are idle and bored, and only this kind of fun can make their tired body and mind relax. In fact, they are not bad people. The man who trips you up and wears shoes is much stronger.

Now that I have time to argue with them, I might as well think about what to do next.It was only during the day that I had a fight with Xiao Changfu in Shuyu Pavilion, and at night he was demoted back to the handyman's room. I have to say that Xiao Changfu is really a man who must take revenge, and he can't even wait for a night's spare time. He sent an order to Wang Chang'an, asking him to send someone to take him back to the handyman's room, and he even picked a master to eat, and when the eunuchs and maids in Likun Palace were busy, they had a good meal in front of the crowd. I humiliated myself.

This time, everyone in the palace knew that they had offended Xiao Changfu and were demoted back by him.In the days to come, I think I know it will be very sad.

The purpose of Xiao Changfu's move is obvious. Those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish. He just wants to let the servants in Likun Palace see clearly that Ruan Yunqing will end up if he dares to go against him.

Killing chickens to warn monkeys, using one policeman to police a hundred, really deserves his reputation of being cruel and merciless.

After thinking about it all afternoon, Ruan Yunqing already had an idea in his mind, but there was still an important link missing, which made him hesitate to fight back.Xiao Changfu is deeply favored by the empress, if he wants to touch him, unless he has ironclad evidence in his hand, if he acts rashly, not only will he not be able to bring down Xiao Changfu, but he will incur even more vicious revenge from him; Restless, within half a year of being here, he dared to dictate to the chief eunuch.

One is a servant who is used to by her side, and the other is a young eunuch who has only been here for three months. The weight of the two of them in the queen's heart is clear at a glance.Although Ruan Yunqing had just entered the palace and hadn't gone through any storms, she would not be so reckless and naive as to jump out to confront Xiao Changfu head-on before she was fully sure.

Three days, three days later, Ruan Yunqing clenched his fists tightly and stared at a dark bush outside the pane.Three days later, it will be the day when the man in black will deliver the antidote to him. At that time, he will have the bargaining chip to confront Xiao Changfu.

There is no reason to be idle when you come back, Ruan Yunqing works with Eunuch Cui.

In the miscellaneous room, wait for the people in the palace to finish their dinner, then gather all the spoons and dishes in one place, wash them, and carry them to the gate of Likun Palace, waiting for the Shangshan supervisor to come and clean them up go back.

The meals in the palace are sent by the Shangshan Supervisor to the palaces and courtyards, and there are regulations everywhere, even the emperor and queen are no exception.In each palace and courtyard, a small kitchen is set up in the southeast direction, which is convenient for the people in the palace to use. Occasionally, the masters do not want to eat the meals sent by the Shangshan Supervisor, so they will let the small kitchen cook some small stoves that suit their wishes. Adjust the taste.

The small kitchen in Likun Palace is in charge of a fat, white-looking old eunuch with round head and round face, round eyes and round nose, who looks kind and happy no matter how you look.He and Cui Xi are about the same age, and they entered the palace in the same group, and they are usually the best friends. Ruan Yunqing and Zhou Jun followed Eunuch Cui, eating and drinking at his place.

The steward's surname is Du, and everyone calls him Lao Du.

Old Du is good at vegetarian food, and his dim sum and snacks are even more excellent. Back then, he won the appreciation of the empress with his dish of "fried three delicacies", and promoted him to work in the small kitchen.

People say, "Don't offend the cook who offends anyone", because they are afraid that the cook will treat him harshly when he scoops up the rice and soup, and the spoon of the rice should not be so slightly in your bowl, you will never be full after this meal. up.

This is a bit exaggerated, but it is not unreasonable. At least Likun Palace, if you want to say who is the most aloof from the world, who is at ease, who doesn't provoke anyone, and who doesn't take care of anyone, you have to say this Manager Du .

Seeing Ruan Yunqing's return, Du Guanshi didn't have anything extra to say. He still had his usual smiling face, and patted Ruan Yunqing's shoulder, "Good boy, you have a lot of backbone. I'm going to hang out with your master in this palace." It's been almost 30 years, and I haven't seen you so stubborn. Hey, it's good to be back, but I'm afraid..."

Du Guanshi didn't go on, Ruan Yunqing also knew what he was going to say, it was just to be careful of Xiao Changfu, he didn't let himself off so easily.

Ruan Yunqing thanked her, then turned to Zhou Jun and carried the big wooden barrel with the dishes, and moved it to the well to wash it, all the way silent, thinking of what happened today, Ruan Yunqing couldn't help being afraid for a while, thinking about his little backbone If it weren't for Pingxi's secret help, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to show her strength.

This busy work lasted until the first watch of the day, and everything was tidied up, and the fire on the stove was extinguished, leaving only a small pot and stove in case it was needed at night.

The little eunuch who was on duty at night was left behind, and everyone dispersed and went back to their rooms to rest.

Zhou Jun was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep well. He poked Ruan Yunqing next to him, and asked how he had been these few days, whether Shuyu Pavilion was really as leisurely and peaceful as he said. It's good, it's a rare fat difference.

Ruan Yunqing was covered in the quilt and laughed sullenly. He didn't say a word, but just secretly stretched out his hand from his side, and handed the golden curly that Sun Jieyu rewarded today to Zhou Jun's palm.

Zhou Jun didn't know what he stuffed, he groped for a long time, then bit his teeth, a carp jumped up from the bed, excitedly shouted: "This, this is..."

Ruan Yunqing hurriedly tugged him, there were two other young eunuchs living in the room, Zhou Jun suddenly yelled, startling them.In the dark, I don't know what they are doing here. They are all tired people all day. They finally fell asleep and were woken up by Zhou Jun. How could they not be angry.

The two couldn't stop yelling viciously: "I knew you were not a good person, and you would make a fuss as soon as you came back. What are you going to do, find a place where no one is around, don't stand in front of us, don't be ashamed!" , we are ashamed."

Since Ruan Yunqing went to Shuyu Pavilion, Zhou Jun quarreled with the little eunuchs in the handyman's room every day. He didn't understand the meaning of those words, but he heard a lot these days and quarreled a lot. After exercising, he pointed his nose and scolded, but he never suffered any more.

The little eunuch satirized Ruan Yunqing overtly and secretly. Zhou Jun had already jumped up when he was on the other side, but now he was holding the gold in his hand, and his heart was so happy that he heard these words, but he ignored them and climbed onto Ruan Yunqing's bed. side, asked in a low voice, "Where did it come from?"

Ruan Yunqing also whispered: "The master rewarded you. You can keep it for fun."

Zhou Jun was very happy. They only gave one or two taels of silver a month, and they also gave a dime of rice, noodles, vegetables, scraps of cloth and other things. It was not worth the gold in Ruan Yunqing's hands to save all these months. How could Zhou Jun be unhappy?

"Really for me?"

Ruan Yunqing was also happy, nodded, and said with a smile: "Here. Thank you too."

Zhou Jun couldn't even close his mouth, "How can this be... Hehe, then, then I will keep it. We brothers have stayed for so many days, and you know the situation of my family. This is my brother's loan from you. In the future, I will If you get a good one, I will definitely pay you back."

"Well," Ruan Yunqing got up quietly, took out a piece of rag, wrapped the golden box tightly, and stuffed it under the bed for Zhou Jun, in a hidden groove. Only the two of them knew this place, even if someone turned over the bag again. , so as not to throw away the gold.

Zhou Jun couldn't sleep anymore, so he leaned into Ruan Yunqing's ear and whispered, "Next time, I will ask someone to take my mother home. I heard that the thatched hut at home has collapsed. My mother is a widow, and she doesn't even have the money to repair the house." , my younger brother is still young, so fart is useless, with this money, the neighbors in the neighborhood can help my mother."

For a while, he said: "Shuyu Pavilion is really a fat job. Being close to the master is an advantage. You have only been there for half a month, and you have received so much money. When will I get such a fat job!"

Suddenly remembering the reason why Ruan Yunqing went to Shuyu Pavilion, Zhou Jun wished he could give himself two slaps, he blushed, and hurriedly said: "Xiaoer, I..." hurriedly changed the conversation, and said something else indiscriminately.

Ruan Yunqing heard Zhou Jun mumbling endlessly, but her heart was much more stable than when she lived in Shuyu Pavilion, and she felt dizzy and fell into a deep sleep after a while.
