Chapter 3 Laundry maid
"It's a lot of talk." The little girl turned around and went out. Although her tone was still impatient, her face was much better. I don't know if it was the one that Xie Zhiruo had just said to her.
This little girl's name is Xiaomi. She grew up in a poor family. She has a younger brother in the family. Her parents are more patriarchal. They always regard her as a loser and drinker. Even many of her younger brothers are like her and can only scold her.
A few years ago, Xiaomi's hometown was hit by drought, and the grain was poor. She could no longer afford to raise her as an "idleman". Her parents bought her and was bought by a rich family to replace her daughter who was going to be sent to the palace as a slave. She was sent to the palace. She didn't have any money and didn't please others. Therefore, she has always been bullied. No one has been polite to her.
No matter how Xie Zhiruo was rejected by the prince, after all, she used to be an official lady, and now she is the crown prince's concubine. The identity is always there. Who knows if there will be a day when the salted fish will turn over? This is the first time to ask her to work. When she is a slave, a smart person can naturally hide. Xiaomi has no mentions anything, and no one has no one to help her. It is such an offending errand that falls on her.
Xiaomi just saw that Xie Zhiruo didn't pay attention to her bad words, and also treated herself with courtesy, and secretly had a little kindness in her heart.
A moment later, Xie Zhiruo changed her clothes, opened the door, smiled at the little girl, and said, "Please wait for a long time. Let's go there now."
It's not that Xie Zhiruo was born with the mentality that someone else hit the right face and wanted to send his left face up quickly. It's just that she comes from the modern era of information explosion. She knows the true meaning of reaching out and not smiling people. When she first came here, she was in such a situation. Of course, she can't make new enemies. Otherwise, I'm afraid that she hasn't awakened Ye Ting's memory, and she will be swallowed by this strange environment.
Xie Zhiruo's smiling face once again won Xiaomi's goodwill. Xiaomi did not say any more bad words, but said, "Let's go. Mother Gong is going to be angry again. We don't have breakfast."
"M Mother Gong?" Xie Zhiruo said with doubt.
"Well, Mage Gong is the Mage who manages our laundry room." Xiaomi replied.
"I don't know what kind of person Mother Gong is. Can you tell me about it? You are an old man. You must know more than me. Please mention more. Xie Zhiruo looked at Xiaomi with a pleading face and said.
"No matter who, no matter how despicable this person's status is, as long as he is a human being, he needs to be respected." This is what teachers who teach social relations teach in class, and Xie Zhiruo has always remembered it.
For the first time in his life, someone spoke to himself in such a pleading tone, and Xiaomi's vanity hidden in the depths of inferiority suddenly got a little satisfaction.
"M Mother Gong has a bad temper, and she is most unpopular to disobey her own words. In the future, no matter what it is, whether she can do it or not, just promise to do it first. If it's really difficult, I will probably agree if I ask her later. In fact, it is rare for Mother to really force others to be difficult.
"Thank you, I remember. Can I ask you if there is anything you don't understand in the future? Xie Zhiruo looked at Xiaomi and thanked him sincerely.
Xiaomi thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, but you can't let others know."
Although Xiaomi has no one to mention it, after all, it has been in the uterus for a period of time. It may not be able to make profits, but it has a desire to avoid harm early. It's just that she was originally a kind woman. Just now, Xie Zhiruo satisfied her vanity hidden in the bottom of her heart. Naturally, she was easy to talk.
"Well, I understand, thank you." Xie Zhiruo thanked again.
Gradually, there were palace people who got up early on the road. The two stopped talking and just bowed their heads and walked forward. Occasionally, two or three little girl pointed behind Xie Zhiruo after passing by Xie Zhiruo, but Xie Zhiruo automatically ignored it.
Xie Zhiruo feels that she has more important things to do, and she has no time and is angry with irrelevant people. At present, the most important thing is how to restore Ye Ting's memory. Everything else doesn't matter.
Xie Zhiruo didn't think about whether this person is really not Ye Ting. Since she can travel through time, why can't Ye Ting? God asked her to come to this place. Naturally, there are some arrangements. She believes that God is always merciful.
"Woman, I can't take good care of you in this life, but in the next life, I will definitely find you and take care of you for the rest of my life."
This is what Ye Ting said to her in person. He has never lied to her. As long as he says it, she will believe it. She believes that her Ye Ting is omnipotent.
Xie Zhiruo and Xiaomi were silent all the way and walked for a quarter of an hour before turning into a yard. The yard was full of shelves for drying clothes. The high shelves were high on the open space. Xiaomi did not stay, but directly took Xie Zhiruo through the small courtyard, went to a room with lights on, and lowered his head and said, "M Mother Gong, I'll bring people over."
"Well, come in." After a long time, a serious voice sounded in the room without a trace of emotion.
"Yes." Xiaomi answered respectfully and motioned Xie Zhiruo to follow him into the room.
"M Mother Gong is safe." When she saw Mother Gong, Xiaomi respectfully asked her.
Seeing that Xiaomi greeted Mother Gong, Xie Zhiruo also quickly learned from Xiaomi's appearance and said, "M Mother Gong." It's just that her soul is a modern person after all, and her salute is a little strange.
The old lady, known as the palace, did not put Xie Zhiruo's nondescript salute in her heart. In her opinion, some official ladies are originally representatives of incompetence, not to mention that the man's reputation in front of her spread all over the womb.
M Mother Gong looked up and down sternly at Xie Zhiruo, and then said, "I don't care what identity you used to be, and I don't care what identity you are looking at in your heart now. Since His Royal Highness asked you to come to my laundry room, there can only be one identity, that is, the maid of honor in my laundry room."
"Yes, Zhiruo understands." Xie Zhiruo said respectfully.
"It would be great if you really understand. Don't try to make trouble in my laundry room and honestly complete the tasks assigned to you. Naturally, I won't embarrass you, otherwise..."
Mother Gong paused and said in an aggravated tone, "Otherwise, I will let you know whether the rattan in my hand is meat-eating or vegetarian!" Can you remember it?"
"Yes, Zhiruo remembered it." Xie Zhiruo still replied respectfully.
"Well, let Xiaomi take her down. Tell her what to do today.
"Yes." Xiaomi only answered and motioned Xie Zhiruo to follow him out of the door.
Xie Zhiruo was not a person without eyesight. Now she followed Xiaomi and bowed her head and exited the door.
"Let's go." Out of the door of the palace, Xiaomi said anxiously, bowing his head and hurriedly.
Xie Zhiruo was a little curious. It seemed that the little girl was afraid that the palace was tight. If she was not mistaken, after just exiting the door, she secretly wiped her forehead with her sleeve. Isn't it a sweat?
Thinking of this, Xie Zhiruo was a little surprised. Although Mother Gong doesn't look very polite, in fact, there is no malice in or out of her words. Isn't it normal for the people above to hope that the people below are honest?
Thinking of this, Xie Zhiruo couldn't help asking, "Are you afraid of Mother Gong?"
Xiaomi stared at Xie Zhiruo, looked left and right, and then said, "Mother Gong's men have beaten people to death."
Hearing what she said, Xie Zhiruo was a little tongue-tight. She couldn't see it. She thought it was just a strict old lady, but she didn't expect it to be so fierce and obedient. She really can't look good-looking, and the sea water can't be measured.
Thinking about it, the little girl who led the way in front of her stopped and pointed to a big wooden basin and said, "In the future, this wooden basin will be used by you. Take good care of it. If it breaks, you have to take out the money to buy it by yourself. Layer by layer, it's not enough without three or five taels of silver. It's valuable."
In fact, it was also Xiaomi who thought that Xie Zhiruo was more polite to him before, so he kindly mentioned it to her. There are a lot of curved and curved layers at the beginning of the palace. Everyone has been cheated, cheated, bumped, and came here. There is not so much kindness to mention others.
Xie Zhiruo naturally understood in her heart that although it was just a matter of one sentence, such a point was also a kindness. At present, she said thank you seriously.
Xiaomi nodded, pointed to a big basket next to the wooden basin beside him, and said, "This is what you have to wash this morning. Someone will send clothes after dinner. It should be such a big basket. There is not much to do in the afternoon after washing in the morning. After washing, someone will come to collect and dry it. At that time, there will be nothing to do.
Looking at a basket full of clothes, Xie Zhiruo has a headache. From childhood to age, she hasn't even tried washing clothes with a washing machine. Because of her bad health, she was at home with her parents. At first, when she went to school, she had good sisters who grew up together. Later, she met Ye Ting. Ye Ting took care of everything in life. There is no chance to wash your own clothes, let alone do it by hand.
"What will happen if you can't finish it?" Xie Zhiruo asked cautiously.
"If you can't finish washing, you will continue to wash, and you will be hungry after dinner. You must wash today's amount in the middle of the night. Xiaomi is back.
"Oh, my God!" Xie Zhiruo held her forehead and sighed. Who sent a fairy to save her? She really needed it.
"Don't be the God. Wash it quickly." Xiaomi frowned and said to Xie Zhiruo, "The well is over there. You have to take the bucket to carry the water by yourself."
"Can't you move the wooden basin and clothes to wash?" Xie Zhiruo asked.
"There is someone occupying it next to the well. If you go there, you will be expelled." Xiaomi replied.
"Uh-huh..." Xie Zhiruo silently didn't know what to say. A small laundry room is so weak and the law. I don't know what the whole prince's palace looks like. Are you too optimistic?
Looking at her motionless, Xiaomi also lost her patience and went back to her position to pick up and wash her own basket of clothes.
After a moment of mourning, Xie Zhiruo woke up. At this point, it was ineffective to resist. It's better to let nature take its course, find a foothold first, and then find a way to get close to Ye Ting.
Just do it. Xie Zhiruo pulled her sleeve and carried a bucket to fought water.
But when she really walked to the well, Xie Zhiruo was dumbfounded at the bucket tied to the wheel and the wheel shaft.
No matter how many times she throws down the barrel, when she turns the barrel up, there is only water in it that is not even covered with the bottom of the bucket.
"This... Who can tell me how to play this water?" Xie Zhiruo looked at the barrel without tears, and once again sincerely pleaded with God to send a fairy to save her.
