She didn't know when her little prince would be born, and she couldn't wait to see him. Of course, she had to find a way to get the Empress to know her so that she could be assigned to serve the prince in the future.
We still need to think of a solution.
Now, the little prince should be in the empress's belly by now.
When was the little prince born? Mingxiu patted her head, but she really couldn't remember.
If she had known what was going to happen, she would have watched "Kangxi Dynasty" countless times.
I wonder if she collected books in her online space back then. I'll have to go in and take a look when I have time.
While Mingxiu was still deep in thought, the main hall of Kunning Palace was indeed full of springtime charm.
The next morning, the entire Kunning Palace was filled with joy. Mingxiu lay in bed, reluctant to get up, watching the torrential rain outside. This morning, the head maidservant of the Empress came to deliver a message that the weather was bad, so everyone would take a day off today. Moreover, because everyone had served well yesterday, each person would be rewarded with a month's allowance.
"Sister, are you up? I've brought your food back," came the voice of a young eunuch from the doorway.
Upon hearing the sound, Mingxiu quickly rubbed against the bed, then got up, opened the door, and said, "Thank you, Xiaoxizi, for troubling you again." She took the food box without stopping.
"Sister, you're too kind. If it weren't for the medicine you gave me that day that saved my life, I'd probably be dead by now. How could I be bringing you food now? Sister, please eat slowly. I'll come back and take the food box away later." After saying that, Xiao Xizi walked out as if something was chasing him.
Mingxiu turned around and saw it running away. She could only sigh helplessly, feeling slightly touched. She put the money back in her hand, 'Never mind, I'll just put it in the food box later.'
Xiao Xizi used to be a sweeping eunuch in the Imperial Garden. Some time ago, he offended someone for some reason and was beaten several times. Eunuchs are usually weak, and those few blows almost killed him. He had a persistent high fever. No one in the palace cared much about the lives of eunuchs. It just so happened that she saw it. Mingxiu was born and raised under the red flag, so how could she watch a human life go unchecked?
After much hesitation, I finally took out the amoxicillin capsules I had previously bought from the pharmacy and gave them to him, which saved his life. Fortunately, we now have Western medicine available, so I can just say that I bought the medicine from the foreigner and get away with it.
From then on, he always helped her, bringing her food or running errands. He wouldn't accept money from Mingxiu, and it always took him a long time to argue with her.
Mingxiu opened the lunchbox and looked at the food inside. She sighed, put the food in her space, and then, seeing that the room was empty, she flashed into her space to cook instant noodles. The food for the palace maids wasn't bad, but there were only a few dishes, and she got tired of eating them after a while.
There were four people living in the room, and since everyone had similar jobs, they spent most of their time together. She usually didn't have a chance to eat in her space, so today, since no one was around, she was going to have to indulge herself.
She went straight to the fourth floor of the mall, which was the closest mall to her home. She had always wanted to eat there, but her wallet was always empty, so she never had the chance. Now she could finally eat to her heart's content.
"Hmm, the steak is delicious, take that one. The glutinous rice noodles are good, take that one too. Wow, the ice cream is good, take that one too. This boiled pork is good, take that one too. 'It's so delicious!' Mingxiu said with satisfaction, crossing her legs and eating so comfortably."
After finishing her meal, Mingxiu quickly went outside and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the room was empty. Holding her stomach, she started to walk around the room. It was so delicious that she couldn't control herself and ate until she was stuffed.
It's really not her fault for lacking self-control; being a palace maid is truly inhuman. She hasn't had a full meal in over a month since she arrived, supposedly to control the timing and frequency of her bowel movements, so she's never full. Besides, in the Qing Dynasty, they only serve two meals a day. How could her developing body possibly endure that? Luckily, she has a spatial ability, so she can sneak in a little something to eat each time; otherwise, she really couldn't take it.
So I really couldn't control myself and ate too much.
The long-lost feeling of fullness is so comforting.
Mingxiu didn't go out that day, and the other three didn't come back either. Mingxiu was puzzled and didn't understand. In modern times, she was a homebody and would never go out if she could avoid it. So she didn't understand how someone could go out for so long, especially in the pouring rain. She preferred to stay at home.
She took out a novel from her spatial storage and started reading. I was in bed, with the window open, watching the heavy rain outside, looking at the sketchbook. This was her favorite time of day; even a god wouldn't trade it for it.
She sipped tea every now and then, and the afternoon passed quickly. In the evening, seeing that the weather outside showed no signs of stopping, she put away her book and prepared to go outside to check why her three roommates hadn't returned yet.
Squeak~
As soon as she opened the door, Mingxiu saw her sister Muyao walking quickly towards her, followed by several palace maids, looking furious.
Seeing her open the door, he didn't say much, but pointed directly to the beds of Lanxin, Qingyin, and Pinzhu, saying, "These are their things. You can decide what to do with them."
Mingxiu was completely bewildered by this series of actions. She pulled Muyao aside and asked, "Good sister, what happened? Why are you suddenly taking their things away?" As she spoke, she took Muyao's hand and put a bracelet on her wrist.
This bracelet was the one I wore when I first entered the palace. I was thinking that I could exchange it for cash if I ran out of money. It was a very affordable gold bracelet, and Mingxiu had never taken it off. I never expected that she would get it for free.
However, she didn't care. She already had plenty of these in the mall, and she didn't want any of the different styles. Her main concern now was figuring out what had happened.
