The Virtuous Concubine
Chapter 17: Emotional Intelligence
After searching so carefully, it actually found one! It immediately recommended it to Maru like a treasure. Maru took a look at the item and found it was a favorability analyzer, which required 1500 points!
Malu now feels that the system is not setting prices based on his points. After all, he only has 20 points left. It recommends this luxury item worth 1500 points to him, which really doesn't care about his life or death.
Malu thought about it and realized that the locator was a necessity. She could use it once a day to estimate Kangxi's location at different times. After she used it a few times, she would be able to figure out the pattern. After that, she would not need to buy beauty filters unless she was in her thirties or forties and needed to fight aging.
As for having children, Malu's health was originally very good, and she had given birth to several children in history. Unless she wanted to have twins, there was no need to buy special medicine.
This analyzer sounds very useful, but should I be able to get a rough idea by observing carefully? Malu was in a dilemma, but fortunately the system kindly reminded her: "Don't worry about it now, you still need 1480 points to afford it, you can see when the time comes."
Malu rolled her eyes at this, and the maid next to her thought that Malu was choking, so she quickly patted Malu on the back. Malu thanked the kind maid with a smile, and the two of them naturally started chatting.
It turns out that this little maid is Zhang Jia Jingyi, later Concubine Min, the biological mother of the Thirteenth Prince! Her father is Zhang Jia Haikuan, a member of the Bordered Yellow Banner, currently in. After the system reminds me, I know that this is my future roommate. The two children also play together, supporting each other, and I feel close to them. Ma Lu looked at her beautiful face and loved her more and more.
The two of them really got along well and had a great time chatting. Zhang Jia and Jing Yi even made an appointment to have dinner together tomorrow. Malu was so happy. What was the difference between this and the modern dinner partners? In addition to Dachun, she had a new friend! I just wonder how Dachun was doing?
After making a note of this, Malu decided to go see Dachun once his job in the tea house was stable. After dinner, Malu went to the imperial kitchen to get the glutinous rice flour, corn starch, milk and sugar needed to make snow melon, and then asked Aunt Shuyu for some watermelons, mangoes and peaches that were on the table but not eaten by Kangxi, and then found the nuts that were originally stored in the workshop and started working.
First, she boiled the jam, then used glutinous rice flour and corn starch to make soft and sticky snow meringue ice skin, and then used milk and sugar to beat the cream. By this time, Malu was already sweating. There were no modern tools and materials, and it was really just like starting from farming!
After that, cut the relatively fresh fruits into fruit grains. At this time, the jam is ready. Roll the dough into a ball and wrap the fillings. Roll them into round and plump daifuku. Steam them in a small stove and sprinkle them with some ground icing sugar and chopped nuts. Finally, they are done.
Malu tried one and it was delicious! This time, we made white milk flavor, yellow mango flavor, purple sweet potato chestnut flavor, peach flavor, and watermelon flavor. Malu ate one of each flavor and was very satisfied.
The snow meringue is delicate and soft. The first bite is the chewy and elastic snow skin. Inside is the milky and dense cream wrapped with fresh fruit pieces. It is sour and sweet, and you can taste the oily fragrance of nuts from time to time. This time I made more things, so Malu could secretly take a few to give away. I looked at the sky and it was already late.
This snowy plum juice couldn't be kept for long, so she took another pack of snowy plum juice and went to ask Aunt Liu for an ice jar. She asked for two ice jars, one of which she left with Aunt Liu and the other she took back, just waiting for Aunt Shu Yu to come back and inspect today's results.
Aunt Shuyu was very satisfied with the food, but she felt that the emperor should not be allowed to eat overnight snacks, even if they were placed in an ice container. So she asked Malu to make it again tomorrow, and this time it would be better to make some auspicious patterns or patterns on the ice skin, otherwise it would not look good and lose the royal style.
Although Malu had been in the Qing Dynasty for more than ten years, she was still a little uncomfortable hearing such words. She, a person of good family background, could not stand such a life where the emperor's power was everything. If it weren't for the system cheering her up every day, she would collapse in a minute.
But the situation is stronger than people! Malu cursed in his heart, but still smiled gently and agreed before leaving. The system found this scene quite funny. It thought it was a good thing that Malu did not forget his original intention. Many people would be assimilated by the environment of the Qing Dynasty and become a link in this cannibalistic society to help the tyrants.
But the reason why Malu can think like this now is because she is still a slave serving the center of power. If one day she really has the power to decide life and death over others, will she be able to remain unchanged like today over time?
Fortunately, Malu has not become that Malu yet. She is still the Liu Yuan who misses spicy hot pot. For example, now, she went to have dinner, and waited for Dachun and Zhang Jiajingyi to send them a few snow melons.
Dachun was still following Madam Liu, but she said she had found a way and would be going to Concubine Li in a few days. Jingyi was naturally very happy. The two of them did not dare to chat in the dining hall, so they could only chat a few words on the way back to the palace. The madam in the dining hall was very strict. If you ate a little too much or your manners were not correct, the madam would glance at you and you should put down your bowl.
It was already late when she returned after finishing all this. Malu was so tired that she fell asleep after washing up. It was really tiring to whip the cream today! Malu's arms were sore when she got up the next day. Fortunately, Aunt Shuyu said that the emperor was going to leave the palace today and would not be in the South Study in the afternoon, so Malu didn't need to do anything.
Malu obediently learned how to make tea from Aunt Shuyu. Aunt Shuyu looked at her with her eyebrows lowered and her eyes carefully brewing tea. Even though she was a woman, she couldn't help but sigh with admiration. Malu's beauty was definitely not ordinary.
Aunt Shuyu thought of Aunt Hongyu's instructions and Ecan's arrangements, and something was stirring in her heart. But now was not the time to tell her, she had to wait for the opportunity.
After that, Shu Yu no longer asked Ma Lu to develop new snacks, but to make the most common snacks in the palace, and only asked her to "practice more" the making of these snacks. Aunt Shu Yu's workplace rule is that there can't be new snacks every day, otherwise the emperor will eat too well in the future, and what will happen if there is no novelty? Moreover, most of the time, the emperor doesn't pay attention to what the snacks are, let alone who makes them.
Aunt Shuyu used the time saved to train and cultivate Malu's rules, especially the rules for dealing with the emperor and serving tea. It was not easy to hide this matter, and the three Yu'ers thought that Aunt Shuyu intended to let Malu take over her job in the tea room. They were envious, jealous, dissatisfied, and regretful in their hearts, but they were definitely harmonious on the surface, and even wanted to curry favor with Malu.
However, Malu didn't care much about these things, after all, none of them could fight. After so many years here, she had already become Kangxi's bedmate. Many of Kangxi's former palace maids lived in the Qianqing Palace. As for the tea room, it was just a stepping stone for her. Later, they would know that she had no intention of competing with them.
After two or three months, the Yu'er seemed to sense Malu's indifference behind his outwardly friendly attitude, and they were somewhat relieved. Their attitude towards Malu also improved a lot. Seeing that Malu had been here for three or four months and had already started to serve tea to the ministers with the tea-serving aunt, they did not complain about it.
