I was a queen in ancient times, no, a maid!

In the stable in the backyard was Zhao Shiyan's mount, which was also his war horse in the army.

A war horse is a soldier's closest companion, so naturally it must be taken good care of.

Zhao Shiyan loves horses very much. He has three horses in his stable, which require at least five or six people to take care of. In addition, when the prince travels and needs a carriage, someone is also required to drive it.

Cheng Bin did this job.

Their daily duties are to take care of the horses' eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. If the master wants to go out, they will harness the horses to the carriage and drive them.

Not everyone can drive this car.

There were five or six people in the stable, and only Cheng Bin and another person named Ding Xiaowei had the opportunity to drive the carriage for the prince.

The prince is in the military camp all year round and seldom comes back, so driving the carriage for him is a leisurely job.

When Heiya and Cheng Yu arrived at the door of the stable, the people inside were busy. Heiya's brother was called Heiniu, and he was also a strong man. He was the one who combed and bathed the horses. He was a little stupid, but he had good physical strength.

When Hei Niu saw his sister coming, he thought she was looking for him, so he came over happily with his teeth bared.

Heiya said directly, "Brother, I'm looking for someone named Cheng Bin, go and call him over."

Hei Niu frowned and said, "Don't even think about it. Cheng Bin is the best-looking one in our stable. Many maids from the outer courtyard have their eyes on him, but he doesn't respond. You are not his type."

"Who likes him? I like the stew made by his sister."

Thinking of the stewed fat pieces, Heiya started drooling.

"Call me here, go quickly."

Hei Niu didn't think much about it and went straight to call Cheng Bin.

When Cheng Bin learned that it was Hei Niu's sister who called him, he was a little afraid to go. Everyone in the stable knew that the big Hei Niu had an equally big sister named Heiya.

If Heiya and Heiniu's father was not also a servant of the palace, it would be impossible for the brother and sister to stay in the palace to work.

If these two were dragged out, the master of the palace would be embarrassed.

Cheng Bin didn't want to go, but Hei Niu was very strong and pushed him out.

When Cheng Bin was preparing to say something to Heiya to refuse, he suddenly saw a fair and pretty face that was particularly familiar to him appearing behind Heiya who was standing at the door.

"Yu'er."

Cheng Bin's face, which was full of disgust just now, instantly showed a happy smile.

"Yu'er, why are you back? When did you come back?"

"I've been back for a few days, and I've been looking for you, but you haven't come home yet. Is your stable busy? Why haven't I seen you come out?"

While the servants were eating, Cheng Yu waited several times.

The servants also have meal times divided into different periods. For example, the female members would eat earlier so that they could serve their masters more conveniently, while the able-bodied men would eat later. Therefore, Cheng Yu could never wait for his brother.

When coming to see Cheng Bin, Cheng Yu was still a little worried about what to say to him.

When she really met Cheng Bin, Cheng Yu realized that she didn't need to find topics to talk about at all.

Her brother is like a real mother and cares about her very much.

"...The food at my son-in-law's house was good. I privately found Dingxiang, the maidservant of the eldest lady, and gave her money to ask her to take better care of you. She didn't want my money and said that I was a horse breeder and didn't have much money. I thought she was dissatisfied with my gift because it was too little."

"Over the past year or so, in addition to the money I give to grandma every month, I have secretly saved some money. I should have about one or two taels. I will give it all to you. Just buy whatever you want to eat secretly. Don't let your mouth go hungry."

In modern times, Cheng Yu has never been cared for by brothers and sisters. She is a left-behind child who grew up with her grandparents.

Later, her parents had a younger brother and brought him with them, saying that they were under a lot of pressure and had to work in the city and take care of his brother, so they couldn't take care of her.

What’s funny is that when they left her in her hometown to live with her grandparents, they said that they were going out to make money all for her.

Because she is a girl, her grandfather doesn't like her.

Her grandfather was a drinker and had a tendency to domestic violence. Whenever her parents didn't send money home, he would vent his anger on her.

In modern times, she dropped out of school after high school. If she hadn't benefited from the live streaming dividend, she would never have been able to own a house, a car, and savings.

When she was preparing to enjoy life, God gave her a blow and sent her directly to ancient times.

However, fortunately, the original owner's brother was very good.

Since she became the original owner, the original owner's brother is her biological brother.

"Don't worry, brother. I'm doing OK at the moment..."

Cheng Yu briefly explained the purpose of returning to the palace. He heard that his sister was doing well now. She was a personal cook for the eldest daughter in her brother-in-law's house. Now that she is in the palace, she cooks for the prince. This makes her a decent maid.

"If Dad knew that you are doing well now, he would definitely be happy. I just don't know how long you will stay in the palace. Dad will definitely be back before the New Year."

Cheng Yu calculated the time.

"I guess I won't be able to wait until that time. Brother, just tell Dad. I'll come back to see you when I have the chance in the future."

It was a rare opportunity to see his sister, so Cheng Bin asked Cheng Yu if she wanted to go home in the evening.

If she goes back, he will go back tonight.

"Forget it. I'll go back these few days. I'll ask the people in the stable to keep an eye on it for me. You keep an eye on the time and go back when you have time."

As Cheng Bin spoke, he thought to himself that his sister must have a hard time being a maid, and now that he had the chance to come back, he wanted to go out and buy some food for his sister.

Cheng Yu said yes.

She didn't cook this morning, but she had some time. As for the evening, she didn't know who Wanxiang would tell to cook for the prince.

She made a rough plan in her mind. If she did it, it would be a little late to go back, but she could still go back.

Of course it’s best not to let her do it.

After talking to Cheng Bin, the Cheng brother and sister were both excited and happy.

Cheng Bin returned to the stable to continue his work.

Cheng Yu and Hei Ya quietly returned to the kitchen.

These past few days, Cheng Yu had been cooking three meals a day for the prince. Mother Fang said that she was helping her but that was just what she said to outsiders. In fact, Cheng Yu did everything herself. Mother Fang just sat on a chair and chatted with the maids in the kitchen.

As it happened, the lunch for the prince today was given to Mother Fang to prepare.

She had been relaxing for a few days and felt very comfortable, but now that she was asked to cook, she felt annoyed.

Not seeing Cheng Yu, he asked her with a stern face where she had been.

Cheng Yu frowned, looked at Mother Fang and said, "Miss Fu Cui said that you, Mother Fang, will prepare the prince's lunch today. She said that I should rest for a while. That's what I wanted to tell you, Mother Fang. I'm going home for lunch."

Mother Fang didn't expect Cheng Yu to say this.

She just wanted to say something offensive.

At this moment, Fu Cui came.

"Is Miss Yu'er in the kitchen?"

"I'm here." Cheng Yu replied. Fu Cui just happened to be there, proving that she was not lying. "Miss Fu Cui, are you looking for me?"

"Here, this is a reward from the prince."

Fu Cui stuffed something wrapped in a royal blue handkerchief into Cheng Yu's hand.

"Here, you've worked hard cooking these past few days. The prince said that you will return to the Lu family in two days. It just so happens that the prince will prepare some things for the eldest lady in these two days, so I'll send them over as well."
