Chapter 368 Raise yourself again (End)
……
a new day.
wake up.
Open your eyes.
There are already palace maids waiting quietly in front of her (the maids must look for good-looking ones, and the unsightly ones will be startled every day when they wake up). The original eldest maid, Fat Ya, is married and should come back to be a nanny. Mom, this is also the career path of a maid. Fat Ya is one of the lucky ones to have joined the national establishment.
The maid opened the curtains, dressed her, put on her shoes, brought her water to rinse her mouth, cleanse her face, brush her teeth... No, she was used to brushing her teeth by herself.
Although it is okay to have a palace maid to help with brushing, she is not used to using an electric toothbrush in modern times, and she is not used to it now, so it is better to do it herself.
Mianmian brushes her teeth very carefully. She brushes every tooth. She also takes care of her back molars very carefully. She brushes them neatly, left, right, left, right, up and down.
After brushing, I rinse my mouth to ensure fresh breath and white teeth, and then apply a little homemade facial cream.
I feel like I haven't done anything, I just changed every detail of my life, and I feel like I've done a lot, even small changes that don't seem to have any effect on social progress.
It may be considered a small change. With this kind of cream, noble ladies are less likely to apply lead powder-laced cream, which may be better for the body and reduce the infant mortality rate during childbirth.
However, noble women are inherently small, ordinary people do not apply expensive lead powder, and luxury goods do not deceive the poor.
Therefore, it actually has little impact on the entire social process.
Mian Mian doesn’t have such lofty ideals either.
I just want to live a more interesting life every day, which is fine.
After washing and dressing up beautifully, I went to find my parents.
Brother Cong will also be there at this time.
Brother Cong is very self-disciplined and has very single hobbies. The clothes he chooses are all the same color. The clothes Auntie prepared for Brother Cong are all the same color. She prepared a lot of clothes. It looks a bit like she hasn't changed clothes.
Mianmian feels that her brother will definitely have a future because he has the simple style of a big boss.
A style can be worn in the old office, in the hall, in the hall, and in the royal palace.
You can wait for Mianmian from Geer almost anywhere.
The two of them went to meet the elders together and then had a meal together.
The breakfast is very rich, with all kinds of beautiful pastries. However, after trying it a few times, I think it looks good and suitable for entertaining guests, but it is not delicious.
Now I have a mouthful of pastry and half a mouthful of sugar, which makes me feel tired.
At first, I chewed the steamed buns hard, trying to bring out the sweetness.
At that time, the body must be short of sugar, and the taste of sugar would be imagined in the mind.
There is a bit of excess sugar now, and there may be a risk of diabetes.
But she's still young, so it's okay. Princess Grandma is at greater risk. Fortunately, Princess Grandma is a sporty old lady, so she should be much better off.
My parents seem to be in good shape, and my father is not overweight in middle age, but my brother-in-law's family may be a bit risky.
While Mianmian was eating, her thoughts were wandering.
I was taught many times about eating etiquette, mainly for the special training before entering the palace. At that time, my father was not the leader.
The key points of training are to eat slowly, don’t gobble it up, don’t eat it hard when you encounter delicious food, don’t let others see what you want to eat, eat a little bit of everything, mainly to show off, and you can eat it at home anyway. , Eat less, talk less and open your mouth less.
Now that I live in the palace, I can be more casual.
If she were to put it back on at this moment and pretend to be a rich lady or something, she would have perfect temperament.
What I like to eat the most is the taste of my childhood, a hodgepodge of soups and watery soups.
No palace maid or eunuch will laugh at you behind your back, after all, everyone wants to live well.
The palace maids and eunuchs are all products of extreme involution, at least they are all smart people, not the stupid or naive ones.
Had breakfast.
Jiang Changtian has to go to work.
But today he plans to take his little girl with him.
The eldest son is meant to work hard and bear no complaints. He has already gone through training like ordinary officials early in the morning.
Brother Cong was free to go to Guanxing Pavilion and study.
Jiang Changtian belongs to a traditional parent.
If the eldest brother wants to inherit the family business, he must suffer a lot and experience a lot.
Because his brother had clearly refused, Jiang Changtian hoped that he could do what he liked, do interesting things, and live a good life.
And daughters are meant to be pampered.
Jiang Changtian is more or less biased.
He wanted to do what he wanted to do when he was a child and the treatment he didn't get, and wanted to at least let Mianmian get it.
The way countless adults raise their children is actually to raise themselves again, grow up again, and make up for their regrets.
He expected to grow up like this.
So he raised his children the way he expected.
When he was a child, he wanted to go to his father's study and wanted to know what his father did every day. He was curious.
He felt that Mianmian was also quite curious, so he decided to give his daughter some experience.
Mianmian was lucky enough to go to court. Of course, she also had the opportunity to dress up like a little eunuch and follow her father.
First, go to court.
Watching hundreds of officials pay homage, this feeling was inexplicably trembling. No wonder I felt that my father was quite happy after becoming the emperor. It did feel different at the peak of power.
There is a hormonal rush of pleasure.
It's fascinating and exciting.
It’s no wonder that my father has become more and more handsome as he gets older, and his appearance remains the same.
The officials below are also very dignified and all dressed gorgeously.
They are all very powerful people. After all, everyone standing here is a super academic. First of all, he passed everyone in the exam, and then the right time, place, people, and various conditions allowed them to reach the front of the court step by step. They are all super bosses, the best of the best.
Mianmian watched her father battle wits with them, either talking, or not speaking, nodding, or smiling. She listened to what they said, which made her dizzy. The clever Eunuch Duan moved a small room for her. Bench, sitting behind the dragon chair.
By the time the morning session was over, Mianmian had fallen asleep twice.
It's more difficult than attending class. I don't understand many of them, and they are confused and a bit obscure.
But Mianmian was very excited to see her father.
After the court was over, my father stayed with Uncle Ji to chat for a long time and had lunch. In the afternoon, he took Mianmian to the cabinet and invited different officials to talk.
Mianmian was sitting in her father's big office, eating snacks on the table next to her. Her father had prepared some books for her to read.
But she suspects that her father specially prepared for her "The Legend of the Number One Scholar", "The Case of the White Fox Pretending to Repay a Favor", "The Loss of a Green Plum in a Brothel" and "..."... It is really embarrassing for my father to dig out so many books that violate universal values. of leisure books.
Mianmian watched very seriously, eating snacks, reading novels, and basking in the sun.
When the minister who came to report on his work saw the little princess glowing warmly in the sun in the corner, like a beautiful cat, he knew that the emperor was in a good mood at this time. When reporting on his work, he could report even bad things.
In such a workplace, the emperor is actually happy, and so are his ministers, so there is no need to be so cautious.
In the evening, Dad left early.
Go back to the palace and find A Niang.
The Queen also has reception work.
She took her daughter-in-law with her and would take time to receive officials' wives, clan wives, and the elders who worried about the late emperor's life every day.
There are quite a lot of problems with female relatives.
Doting on concubines destroys wives, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problems, fertility problems.
Qin Luoxia would first listen to what Aunt Yin said about these people, and then judge based on her opinion.
She has always been a neat character, and she will help those who are willing to listen. Those who cry and won't listen can be ignored even if they are told once, and she doesn't have to rush them.
In short, the Queen's work is even better than the Emperor's.
Especially neat.
Dad, who left early, took Mianmian to find grandma, and they went to visit the Royal Garden together.
The Imperial Garden was very large and the scenery was beautiful. The two of them changed into their regular clothes and took a stroll in the Imperial Garden.
Mianmian followed.
She wanted to shout, you two are going on a date, can you not bring me, this little light bulb?
But watching them walk together, I was inexplicably moved.
Very moved.
The light at four or five o'clock in the evening is very soft.
The sun is shining but not too hot.
Make the shadow long.
Mianmian thought it was great. Being able to support each other and go on was already the best state in the world.
She kicked the pebbles behind her and walked slowly, as slowly as possible, so that the two of them could talk privately.
She let the little tree out and walked together on the ground.
Follow the small tree and walk around.
Grandma and Dad had already disappeared in front of a flower garden.
Mianmian thought happily that she was really a qualified little cotton-padded jacket.
Ahead, Jiang Changtian held Xia Mei's hand and walked slowly. When he reached the flower garden, he stopped and waited for Mianmian.
From where they were standing, they could see Mianmian squatting on the ground and playing with ants.
Jiang Changtian said with some confusion: "Mei Xia, do you think Mianmian's brain is a little hard to use?"
Qin Luoxia also felt a little guilty, feeling that Mianmian's appearance had changed after her husband, but her brain habits might have changed after hers.
"Probably not. Didn't she raise ants since she was a child? I heard that my mother also raised big snakes when she was young. Mianmian may be a bit like our mother."
"hiss!"
If Mianmian was like his princess, Jiang Changtian had a toothache and his cheeks felt a little sore just thinking about it. Ask someone to write some more storybooks later, and they must be educational. Don't let your children follow others just because they are good-looking.
Be on guard against death.
Bring Mianmian to see more of the world.
When Mianmian and Ant came over, Jiang Changtian asked kindly: "What do you want to do when you grow up?"
"Ah." Jiang Mianmian thought that at her age, she had grown up in ancient times, because she could talk about marriage when she was sixteen or seventeen years old.
"If you want to be a princess, just be like your mother-in-law and eat, drink and have fun all your life." Mianmian added in her heart without having to take care of a baby.
Jiang Changtian, Qin Luoxia:...
"What kind of man does Nannan like?" Qin Luoxia asked tentatively.
"I like good-looking people." But so far, I haven't found anyone who is better than my dad, so of course there is no one.
Jiang Changtian, Qin Luoxia:...
Jiang Changtian thought to himself that he would ask his mother in the evening if she wanted to go up the mountain to practice. Recently, she kept running around with Mianmian, and would it delay her self-cultivation.
At night, the emperor and the empress went to bed. There was no sign-turning, no romance, and the couple had a serious discussion about the future of their two children, Mianmian and Cong Geer.
It feels like it's much more serious than national affairs.
While Mianmian was sleeping, her ears felt a little itchy for no reason, and she felt like someone was talking about her.
The palace maid knelt beside her and asked: "Princess, I know how to pick ears, can I help you relax for a while?"
Mianmian nodded, and saw the palace maid took out an eight-piece set, all kinds of fine hairs, and bells, and scratched her ears, shaving her auricles, and a palace maid gently rubbed her legs, which made her feel refreshed. After the service, Princess Mianmian fell asleep comfortably.
Corruption sleeps well.
Have a good night's sleep.
I dreamed of a poem: The moon is setting, the crows are crying, the sky is covered with frost, the river maple is fishing and the fire is facing me...
The scene changes.
It's like hearing a baby crying.
It's midsummer evening.
The wind is hot.
The cicadas chirped and the frogs kept chirping.
She opened her eyes and saw a round-faced woman in front of her, smiling at her.
"Nanny is awake, she must be hungry."
The big-faced woman picked her up and lifted her clothes skillfully.
She reflexively opened her mouth and sucked the milk hard.
