Chapter 190: Life

After dinner, Mo Yi went to bed early.

There was no one around me, as if I was back in my room.

I slept very deeply, and when I woke up in the morning, I found that all the fatigue I had experienced before was gone.

Get dressed and go to the dining room for breakfast.

Yesterday, I asked Hongyan to notify all the courtyards and they gathered in the dining hall today. She came earlier, but Concubine Tian, ​​Qianqian's daughter, and the two concubines Xu and Wu were earlier than her.

Seeing her come in, he quickly bowed.

The little girl Qianqian seemed to be quite outgoing. She smiled and called out, "Mother!"

There was a maidservant next to her. She bowed to her and said, "Your Highness, I am Xiaofang, a servant from Aunt Mei's courtyard. Aunt Mei has a fever and is afraid that she will catch a cold or pass the disease. I am asking you to give me a leave."

Before Mo Yi could say anything, Concubine Feng came in with Shao Ge'er.

"Empress," Shao Ge'er bowed gently. He was held by her, still a little sleepy. "Empress." He also called her that.

Mo Yi nodded.

Concubine Feng turned to Xiaofang and said, "Doctor Zhuang will go and see Aunt Mei in a while."

He turned around and told the maid following him to go and call a doctor.

Then he said to Mo Yi, "Aunt Mei is weak and needs to see a doctor from time to time. But it's not a big deal. She will be fine after taking two doses of medicine. You don't have to worry about her, madam."

What I said...

Maybe it's true, but it sounds like... Aunt May did it on purpose...

Mo Yi smiled and said, "Okay. When the doctor is done, please send a copy of the pulse report to my yard."

Concubine Feng was stunned, but still nodded and smiled, "Yes."

Everyone sit around the table.

Mo Yi said: "I just got married, and I have been busy recognizing my relatives these two days, and I haven't taken care of anything else. I invited everyone to come here today. While the prince is not here, let's get familiar with each other first.

I am young and have not experienced many things, but I have to bear the burden of being a princess. Therefore, I hope you can help and give me some advice. Especially when there are children and weak people at home, and it is the New Year, I can't make any mistakes. If I am not thoughtful, just remind me. If you have any ideas, you can also tell me directly. "

Concubine Tian was thinking: This doesn’t make sense!

As a princess, there was nothing wrong with her speaking like this, and it was even very simple. She was very friendly to everyone and didn't have any airs of superiority. Otherwise, she would be really particular and she had the right to call everyone over and scold them every day.

So, this statement gives everyone face and is also proactive.

But at the same time, she doesn't take care of the household... What should I remind you of? What ideas can I share with you that would be useful?

I don’t understand... Just agree first, so she nodded enthusiastically.

"Concubine Feng, please take some time later and tell me about the daily life in the mansion." Mo Yi said again.

"Yes." Concubine Feng smiled sincerely, but cursed in her heart, thinking that I was really treated as a housekeeper.

"Xiangxiang, I heard that your classes haven't started yet. If you want, you can come to my study. There are some interesting things...you can take a look." Mo Yi said to Li Xiangling.

Is this a deliberate attempt to flatter the legitimate daughter? Concubine Feng has a lot going on in her mind...

Li Xiangling's face was tense and she was unmoved. "Princess, Xiangling wants to go back to her parents' home."

Everyone's heart tightened. Not only did the princess not accept the princess's overtures, she was also quite disrespectful...

Mo Yi thought about it seriously and said, "Xiangxiang, your father is only away for two or three days and will be back soon. When he is at home, he must want the family to be together. Besides, the New Year is coming soon..."

Li Xiangling didn't say anything.

So what if my father is at home? He has been back for a year, and the number of times we meet is limited.

Not only is she not close to me at all, but Aunt Nine can't accompany me anymore...

How sad it is to live in a big yard with only a maid?

But, her maternal family... Although she was young, she knew that her maternal family was not happy that her ninth aunt and her father's relationship did not work out. So they did not come to pick her up...

Thinking of this, she wanted to cry, but she couldn't cry.

"Xiangxiang, if you miss them, I'll send someone a message and arrange a time, and then I'll go with you to see them, okay?"

Concubine Feng laughed inwardly. After all, you are from a small family. You don't even know this little bit of etiquette. Isn't it rude for you to come here? Who are you? The prince didn't even formally introduce you to the Zhou family!

Li Xiangling was young and didn't know how to handle it, so he could only nod.

After dinner, Concubine Feng said, "Princess, I still have some housework to do. Can I come and talk to you after I finish it?"

Mo Yi nodded and smiled, "Okay!"

When leaving the house, Mo Yi specifically called Li Xiangling, "Xiangxiang, there are fish and wild ducks in the pond. Let's take some steamed buns to feed them?"

Li Xiangling was a little hesitant. The maid next to her said, "Princess, why don't you go back and put on more clothes first? It's cold by the lake..."

So she shook her head and said, "It's cold, Xiangxiang won't go."

After hearing this, Shao Ge'er was very polite: "Mother, Shao Ge'er wants to go!"

Qianqian also said: "Mother, Qianqian wants to go too!"

Concubine Feng smiled and said to Li Shaofeng: "It's cold today, let's go at noon when the sun is shining brightly."

Although Li Shaofeng was not happy, he was still obedient and followed the girl...

So, Mo Yi took Concubine Tian and Qianqian to the pond.

The three people, holding steamed buns, fed the fish and the ducks, having a lot of fun.

Li Xiangling returned to his yard, thinking about this matter, and came out again, watching from a distance. Hearing Qianqian screaming, he laughed...

Mo Yi and Concubine Tian fed her for a while and found that Qianqian put the steamed buns in her purse...

"This is given to you by the princess. It's your favorite. Wouldn't it be dirty if you put steamed buns in it?" Concubine Tian reminded.

Qianqian is small but wealthy: "It's okay, the queen will give Qianqian a gift..."

Mo Yi and Concubine Tian looked at each other and smiled.

"After the New Year, the shop is open. There are many purses. You can choose whatever you want."

"Madam, what shop?" Concubine Tian is a person who knows a little bit about music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is not interested in them. She is only interested in business.

So Mo Yi started chatting with her.

At this point, the two of them had a lot to talk about.

Concubine Tian is indeed born into a merchant family. She has extraordinary knowledge and knows a thing or two about all kinds of things.

Mo Yi was overjoyed and asked for advice humbly. But Concubine Tian was a good teacher, so she just said these words.

The two of them felt unsatisfied and cold just standing there talking, so after Miss Qianqian finished throwing away her steamed buns, they all went back to the main courtyard.

As soon as he entered the room, Mo Yi asked the maid to make tea and bring snacks, and took Concubine Tian into the study.

The huge study is filled with things.

"I haven't had time to sort them out since we moved here. I guess the shop is going to sell these..." She had an idea about these things, so she picked them up and explained them casually.

Concubine Tian and her daughter looked at her with shining eyes.

For lunch, the mother and daughter ate at Mo Yi's place.

Concubine Feng didn't come until the afternoon.

"My queen..." She held a few pieces of paper in her hand.

"Look, this is the princess' monthly allowance and treatment, including clothing, meals, entertainment, travel and other regulations, as well as the standards for receiving and giving gifts and how to settle accounts, etc. Please take a look first. If there is anything you don't understand, please ask me."

Mo Yi took it and looked at it...

She only has her own standards, and there are no standards for concubines and concubines. It seems that Concubine Feng thinks it has nothing to do with her...

No rush.

"For example, regarding meals..." Concubine Feng continued to explain: "This is your standard, this is the range. Beyond this, if you have any special needs, you need to place an order at least one day in advance, and... you need to pay for it yourself."

"Let me take a look at these first. If I don't understand anything, I'll ask you."

Concubine Feng nodded in agreement.

"I have some things on hand that require me to leave the house frequently. One is the arrangement of the carriage guards, and the other is that I may not eat at home. What should I do about this?"

Concubine Feng wanted to embarrass her, especially...

But she can't.

She smiled and said, "As for all this, you can come up with a plan and I will arrange it for you."

Mo Yi nodded and that was the end of the conversation.

Concubine Feng said goodbye and walked out, but Mo Yi called her again, "Has the doctor examined Aunt Mei?"

"…I just finished reading it and wrote a prescription. I'll have someone bring it over in a bit!"

"Okay." Mo Yi didn't forget about it.
