Chapter 127 Makeup Lessons

Lin Xiao asked Lu Shan and Muchen to unload the goods and take everything on the carriage to the main room.

Mu Chen appeared out of nowhere, approached furtively, unloaded the goods like lightning, and disappeared again.

Lu Shan holding three pieces of silk: "..."

I haven't finished moving in one trip. Does your speed slap me in the face?

Mrs. Bao, who heard the sound and came to see the excitement, entered the main room and asked Qiaoqiao to open all the boxes.

After looking around with her hands behind her back, Mrs. Bao stretched herself and said: "There are a lot of things, basically only a few small things are missing."

Yang Mu looked confused.

Lin Xiao explained: "The people from the Protector's Palace are coming soon, and people rely on clothes."

Yang Mu touched the fabrics, tugged on her sleeves, and said, "Isn't this quality bad?" This was a dress she just bought a few days ago, and it cost her twenty taels of silver!

Lin Xiao motioned her to look at the silks with his eyes and said, "Put these on to save yourself unnecessary trouble."

Yang Mu heard Lin Xiao say "save trouble" and already guessed what he and Mrs. Bao meant.

It's not that you can't return to the capital in plain clothes, but it just makes your subordinates look down upon you, and it makes the Protectorate lose face.

There is really no need to clarify things that can be avoided with just one piece of clothing.

She follows the good and listens decisively to everyone's reasonable opinions.

Old Mrs. Bao said: "Girl Mu, from today on, come to my room every night at midnight." After saying this, Old Mrs. Bao left with her hands behind her back.

Yang Mu looked at the old lady's back in surprise, wondering what was going on.

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up and he whispered to Yang Mu, "Mrs. Bao should be teaching you some things in the backyard."

Seeing that Yang Mu still didn't understand, he said, "Aunt Bao is a female official from the palace. I only found out recently."

"Ah?" Yang Mu's eyes widened. She guessed that Mrs. Bao's identity was not simple, but she had never thought about it in this direction.

Lin Xiao then told Yang Mu what the Hang County magistrate had told him.

Yang Mu looked at Lin Xiao with wide eyes, "Are you saying that Mrs. Bao is not only a female official, but also a female official of the Crown Princess?"

Lin Xiao nodded and said: "The first Emperor Xiaorui died in just six months after he came to power. Without the prince in the palace, the two empress dowagers took the regent's young son into the palace and canonized him as emperor. And the regent's biological mother is like this

A royal concubine."

Yang Mu suddenly realized, "In other words, the current emperor is the grandson of the Empress Dowager, and Aunt Bao is the female official beside the Empress Dowager!"

Isn't this the same as the female official next to the Queen Mother?

Aunt Sumala?

Lin Xiao said: "I once heard someone say that this female official is a person with bad luck, very unlucky. But if you meet someone with the right destiny, both parties will be blessed with good luck."

He pointed in the direction of the capital and said: "The Crown Princess was just an unpopular concubine of the Wang family back then. Ever since Aunt Bao made her a maid, this concubine of the Wang family has been treated like a concubine by the Wang family.

Emperor Jiaji chose him to enter the palace and became Jieyu. After that, the two supported each other and rose through the ranks."

Yang Mu pointed at herself and said, "So, she chose me?"

My European emperor physique was discovered by the old lady?

Lin Xiao reminded her, "Have you saved Aunt Bao many times?"

Yang Mu thought for a while and it seemed like this.

Lin Xiao said: "She must have decided that you are the person she is destined to resolve the crisis. Then she should follow you to the capital and stay with you."

He smiled and said: "With a fifth-grade female officer by your side, I won't worry about you being in danger in the backyard. I'm afraid that those tricks in the backyard will not escape the eyes of this old man in the palace."

Yang Mu realized that this was her keeping Old Mrs. Bao safe, and Old Mrs. Bao in turn helped her gain a foothold in the house fight, mutually beneficial!

After dinner, Yang Mu followed Mrs. Bao back to the private room in the backyard.

As soon as she entered the side room, Yang Mu found that the room was much neater than before. She looked at Qiaoqiao who was pouring water for her. This girl was quite capable.

Yang Mu now doesn't know that this dark-skinned little girl has obsessive-compulsive disorder and mysophobia. In the near future, she will go crazy because of this.

Mrs. Bao drank tea leisurely and said frankly and honestly: "Do you know my identity?"

Yang Mu: "Fifth-grade female officer?"

Mrs. Bao: "When did you know?"

Yang Mu: "Just now."

Mrs. Bao was silent for a second and said in a low voice: "The eldest son of the Lin family, if you stick your hair on it, you will be a monkey!"

Yang Mu chuckled and said, "So are Aunt Bao going to follow me to the capital? Are you buying the maid for me as well?"

Mrs. Bao rolled her eyes at her and said, "Young Shamei, Qiaoqiao is the maid you bought for me! I haven't found the right one for you yet."

"Are you really planning to buy me a maid?" Yang Mu was a little unbelievable. Mrs. Bao was usually so stingy that she didn't even pay for food. How could she be willing to buy her a maid?

Mrs. Bao said: "Buy a bookkeeper who is literate and will take care of your outside business and small warehouse in the future."

Yang Mu didn't know much about the ancient maid system, but it seemed that among Jia Baoyu's many maids, Hua Xiren was in charge of the accounts.

Seeing the confused look on Yang Mu's face, Mrs. Bao knew that she knew nothing about the backyard. She sighed inwardly and said, "Let me tell you about the capital city."

Yang Mu is still very interested in things in the capital, after all, he is going to live there soon.

Under the dim oil lamp, Mrs. Bao brewed a pot of scented tea and talked about it.

Yang Mu only listened for a few minutes before he became confused and said, "Wait a minute, I need to take notes!"

She ran out, got rice paper and charcoal, then ran back and sat at the table, like a primary school student studying hard, staring at Mrs. Bao eagerly with eyes eager for knowledge.

"Auntie, say what you just said again!"

Mrs. Bao immediately darkened her face and regretted for a moment. This little girl obviously didn't have the keenness to fight in a house!

That’s all, just for the sake of her luck!

She took a deep breath and spoke again.

The current emperor is Emperor Longxing, who is only three years old. The empress dowagers of the two palaces listen to the government behind the curtain.

In the entire Dashun Dynasty, the eight most powerful families were the Four Kings and Four Families.

Prince Ding's Mansion is one of the four princes. Lin Xiao's father, Prince Ding Lin Mao, is the only prince of the opposite sex.

The Yang family of the Protector's Palace is one of the four families. Protector Yang Cheng'en is sixty years old. The eldest son Yang Zhen is Yang Mu's father and the future Protector.

Mrs. Chen, the protector of the country, was Yang Mu’s grandmother. She was from a family that inherited poetry and rituals in the south of the Yangtze River - the Chen family.

The eldest son Yang Zhen's Tang family, that is, Yang Mu's aunt is fond of auntie.

…

An hour later, Yang Mu walked out of Mrs. Bao's wing with stars in her eyes.

Help!

She needs a relatives calculator!

Who can understand how confused an orphan would be when he saw the terms cousin, cousin, cousin, and cousin aunt, and how devastated he would be when he saw the terms cousin-in-law and cousin-in-law!

Mrs. Bao's cramming education has reduced Yang Mu's expectations of going to the capital by half.

Yang Mu felt dizzy at the thought of having to attend classes for many days.

Back in the east room, Lin Xiao was sitting on her bed.

Yang Shitou has fallen asleep, Qiuqiu is sleeping next to Shitou with his arms stretched out, and the unlucky Hei Da Ya was robbed by Lu Shan and went to the front yard, so he is no longer here.

Lin Xiao made a silent gesture towards her and said, "I just fell asleep."

Yang Mu was listless, as if his body had been hollowed out, and his lively look at calendar reading was completely gone.

This was the first time Lin Xiao saw her like this. He found it interesting and said, "What's wrong? What did Aunt Bao say?"
