Chapter Thirteen, Solving Fat Borers

"My maid, Yao Jia, please pay tribute to the Empress." Yao Jiaxin quickly walked into Maopin's study and bowed her knees in a regular manner.

The fragrance of Hui ink was filled with fragrance. Maobin was rubbing his sore wrists, his face was a little heavy. The palace maids and eunuchs serving beside him were obviously tightly clinging to their strings, for fear of touching Maobin's bad head. Maobin glanced at Yao Jiaxin and said a little unhappy: "What are you here to do?"

Yao Jiaxin smiled humbly and said, "It is the right thing for the maid to pay tribute to the empress. Besides, the maid thinks that he has no other strengths, but he can always write. If the maid does not dislike the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid and the maid are willing to do their best for the two little princesses who died prematurely."

Yao Jiaxin has seen the handwriting of the previous owner, and it is very immature, which is a little more regular. Naturally, her handwriting is not much better. She only studied calligraphy for two years, and later she was busy purchasing agents and rarely practiced it. Therefore, her handwriting is just like the original owner.

After hearing this, Maopin's calm brows couldn't help but relieve her three points. There were few palace maids in this palace who could read, let alone write well. Maopin knew the name of Yao Guiren, and it was not very good, but at this time, it would be good to come to someone to help her share the burden.

Maopin nodded with a smile, "It's hard for you to have this kind of heart."

Yao Jiaxin smiled, "The Empress takes care of her maids and concubines all day long, so she naturally wants to repay her maids and concubines." As she said that, she asked in a very casual tone: "By the way, I wonder if that Jinhua ham tastes the Empress?"

Although Maopin was a little puzzled about why Yao Guiren suddenly asked this, she casually said, "The cooking was pretty good." - Eunuch Tang was also thoughtful, and she even gave him ten taels of silver to praise his loyalty.

Yao Jiaxin seemed to have her heart fallen back into her stomach, and she breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that the empress likes it."

No matter how stupid Maopin was, she could hear something was wrong. Her mind turned and her face suddenly turned dark. However, in front of Yao Jiaxin, Maopin did not have anything to do. She asked Yuchichi to take good Xuanxuan and Bimo and handed it over to Yao Guiren.

Yao Jiaxin left, and Maopin glanced at the palace maid, "What the hell is going on?"

Gianta hurriedly said, "Empress, I heard a few days ago that Guiren Yao asked Eunuch Tang to buy some New Year's goods... I'm afraid..."

Maopin's old face immediately covered the dark clouds, looking like he wanted to eat people.

The giant clam also didn't like the fat pig named Tang bullied his superiors and concealed his subordinates, so he added a little more fire, "I was surprised before. Qingfengsi was obviously unwilling to give him meat, so how could the father-in-law get the best ham?"

Maopin snorted coldly: "Then why didn't you say it earlier?"

Gianta hurriedly knelt down, "Eunuch Tang is the one who is used to by the Queen Mother. She has no evidence. How dare the slave say bad things about him?" As she said that, Gianta showed a look of grievance.

Maopin took a deep breath. In fact, Maopin also knew that eunuch Tang had been ignorant of the oil. He just thought that the dishes cooked by eunuch Tang were always very popular with her. This slave was quite loyal, so he turned a blind eye. Unexpectedly, he dared to deceive her now!

Gianta said again: "But fortunately, Yao Guiren is very tactful, otherwise if Chu Xiugong knew that you had taken the noble person's things, you might have said something ugly."

After hearing this, Maopin's face turned pale, "This dog slave can't be kept!" He was just a chef, and there were so many eunuchs in the palace who could control the spoon!

When he returned to the side hall, Yao Jiaxin did not delay and directly ground ink and spread paper. Thinking that he hadn't started writing for a long time, he took out his usual white paper, practiced for a quarter of an hour, and found some feeling, and then he began to write on the white and white primitive rice paper.

Maopin copied the sutras and prayed to the two little princesses who died young, so they copied the original vows of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, with a total of thirteen volumes. Fortunately, Maopin made a vow to copy the sutras of Ksitigarbha King, not a hundred times, otherwise God would have known that he would copy until the year of the Monkey and Horse Month.

Yao Jiaxin didn't write for a long time, so she naturally slowed down. She copied until it was ten thousand, but she had only written half a volume. At this speed, if she had to complete the task, she would probably have to copy until next spring.

Su Yu held the lamp, "My master, Xiao Yangzi has brought the dinner back."

Yao Jiaxin said "yes" and put down the wolf's hair.

Today’s dinner is no different from usual, a plate of steamed bacon, a few light and delicious vegetarian dishes, the staple food is snow-white rice, and a bowl of hot milk.

not bad.

Yao Jiaxin sat down and was about to move, but she heard a mess outside.

Xiao Liuzi ran out cleverly to inquire about the news, and came back in a short while. He was furious and said, "My little master, it was Empress Mao who ate sand from the ham. The Empress was angry and slapped twenty times in the face. Eunuch Tang's face was swollen!"

Yao Jiaxin raised her eyebrows. This Maopin really couldn't help but attacked her.

At this time, I suddenly heard a cry of injustice outside: "That ham belongs to Guiren Yao, she must have tampered with it!"

The sound was so loud that even her side hall could hear it clearly.

This foolish fat pig was still thinking about framed her at this time! Maopin is not very smart, but not so easy to deceive! This happened in Xianfu Palace, just under Maopin's nose. One afternoon was enough for Maopin to check it clearly.

Then he heard the angrily scream of the giant clam: "Why don't you ban it! Take it to Shenxingsi. This dog slave deceives his superiors and hides his subordinates in the kitchen of Xianfu Palace. He has no idea how many corruption is. He asked Shenxingsi to take care of it!"

Yao Jiaxin smiled. This fat borer was solved. She was a little bit powerful and would have a better life in Xianfu Palace in the future. At least she would not dare to bully the kitchen.

Next, Maopin promoted Eunuch Xu, who was good at making snacks in the kitchen, to be the chief manager of Xianfu Palace. Eunuch Xu was said to be very kind and humble. On the first day of taking office, he asked someone to give him two plates of exquisite snacks, saying that they were filial piety.

Yao Jiaxin took a piece of snow-white cloud cake and took a bite. It was indeed sweet and soft. "Eunuch Xu is so kind. Su Yu, it's the end of the year. Remember to send a New Year red envelope to Eunuch Xu."

"Yes, little master."

After eating enough snacks, Yao Jiaxin continued to copy Buddhist scriptures.

In the second year of Yongzheng in the cold winter, Yao Jiaxin never walked out of Xianfu Palace. Apart from paying homage to the master's concubine Maopin, she stayed in her side hall to copy Buddhist scriptures all day long. When she was tired, she lay down for a while and rubbed the mandarin ducks. Although her life was a bit boring, she finally reached the third year of Yongzheng with a stable life.

With her dedicated copying efforts, in February, Maopin finally fulfilled the wish of copying 100 volumes of Buddhist scriptures issued last year to pay homage to the two little princesses, and even sent them to Baohua Palace for praying. In this way, Qingfengsi had no reason to stop giving Xianfu Palace meat.

The day of "vegetarianism and fasting" has finally come to an end.
