Traveling through time and encountering war, I took the whole village to escape famine

[My dear children: Xiao Sheng neglected to remember that in ancient times, servants had to avoid naming their masters, so he named the queen's maid Shiqi without thinking about it. This name clashes with the pronunciation of poetry, so from this chapter onwards, Shiqi will be renamed Qinqi, which is easier to remember——]

Cheng Shiyin gently raised her jade hand, picked up the water glass gracefully, tilted the cup slightly, opened her mouth slightly, and swallowed slowly. Every movement was so gentle, soothing and elegant, as if time had slowed down because of her.

Xiangcao and Lancao, who were standing aside, stared at the scene in front of them and were actually attracted by Cheng Shiyin.

They had never seen such a dignified and beautiful person, it was simply a pleasure to the eyes.

Lancao's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but exclaim in her heart: "This lady is so beautiful!"

She actually said what was in her mind. Although her voice was not loud, it was clearly heard by everyone present. In an instant, the air seemed to freeze, and the atmosphere became extremely tense.

After hearing this, Xiangcao, who was standing side by side with Lancao, suddenly changed her expression and thought to herself that something was wrong. She was terrified and quickly stretched out her hands to cover Lancao's mouth tightly, fearing that she would say something inappropriate again.

Xiangcao quickly knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Madam, please forgive me. I am still young and don't know the rules. My words offended you. Please don't blame me." After saying that, Xiangcao pulled Lancao, who was still in a daze beside her, hard, signaling her to kneel down and apologize to you.

Lancao just woke up from her dream and realized that she had caused a disaster. She was so scared that her face turned pale. She knelt down on the ground with Xiangcao in fear, her body trembling constantly, and she didn't even dare to breathe.

Seeing this, Cheng Shiyin smiled slightly and said softly: "Don't be so restrained, get up quickly!" Her tone was gentle and kind, without any blame in her tone.

Hearing this, Vanilla and Orchid breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Madam!"

The two sisters stood up carefully, and Xiangcao mustered up the courage to speak again: "Madam, can you wash up now? I will go get you some water."

Cheng Shiyin nodded: "Yes! Go ahead!"

"Yes, ma'am," Vanilla took the medicine lightly and prepared it.

Cheng Shiyin put the empty cup of water into Qinqi's hand: "Qinqi, change my clothes for me."

"Yes, ma'am."

Lancao was young and adapted quickly. She looked at the beautiful lady in front of her and found her very amiable. She no longer had the fear she had when she came in. She smiled with her small gap teeth showing: "Beautiful lady, my wife has personally prepared breakfast for you and Old Madam Cheng. I will go and tell my wife that you are awake."

Cheng Shiyin looked at the smiling little girl calling her beautiful lady, and she was delighted. She smiled at Lancao and said, "Go!"

"Madam, you look even more beautiful when you smile," he said and went out happily.

“Madam, this little maid of the Yun family is quite courageous, but what she said is also true, Madam is indeed a rare beauty in the world.”

"How dare you tease me, little girl? Aren't you afraid that I will punish you?"

"My lady, please don't be reluctant to punish me."

The master and servant looked at each other and smiled.

"Madam, madam, the lady has woken up," Lancao had just walked out of the tent when she saw Li Xiuxiu helping Madam Cheng out of the tent.

Lancao belatedly remembered the etiquette that Sister Yunteng had taught her, and bowed slightly: "I pay my respects to Old Madam Cheng."

"Oh! Isn't this Lancao? I haven't seen you for a few days and you have learned the etiquette quite well."

"Haha! Old lady, this was all taught to you by the Yunteng sisters," Old Lady Cheng was familiar with the three Lancao sisters, so she was not too reserved and responded with a smile.

Early this morning, Yun Teng and several maids followed Yun Duo to deal with the killers, so Li Xiuxiu prepared breakfast for Madam Cheng and the Queen herself.

After preparing breakfast, seeing that it was almost time for Yunhai and the others to wake up as he had said, he asked the sisters Xiangcao and Lancao to guard outside the queen's tent.

Li Xiuxiu was worried that the two maids were old and had been drugged last night, so they would feel unwell when they woke up this morning.

During the journey of fleeing famine, she got along very well with Old Madam Cheng, and they had a deep affection for each other. She treated the old lady like her own aunt, so there was no need to be shy about anything.

So, Li Xiuxiu went into Madam Cheng's tent in person and sat on the stool in front of the old lady's bed. For fear of getting bored, she took the recipe given by her daughter and read it with relish.

Li Xiuxiu saw that Old Madam Cheng had woken up and put down the book in her hand: "Aunt Cheng, you are awake. How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"

Old Madam Cheng felt that she hadn't slept so soundly for a long time. She was very happy to see a familiar person: "Jinxiu, is that you? Aunt Cheng is fine, no need to worry."

Before Li Xiuxiu came over, Yunhai had already told her that after waking up from the drug, they would be thirsty, so they needed to prepare some boiled water for them: "Aunt Cheng, are you thirsty? I'll help you sit up, you should drink some water early."

Li Xiuxiu poured a glass of water for the old lady.

The sound of their talking woke up the two maids.

As the two talked, the two maids woke up. "Madame Chun, Madame Xia, are you awake? There is water on the bedside table. You two can drink some first."

The two of them felt really good after waking up. They usually got up very early, but today they didn't know why they overslept. They didn't even have time to serve the old lady. They cried out in guilt for their dereliction of duty.

The two of them stood up in a hurry and said, "Mrs. Xiucai, we are so sorry. It's because we are useless and too old to be useful. We are sorry to trouble you."

Along the way, the two maids called Li Xiuxiu "Mrs. Scholar" just like the villagers did.

"What are you saying, Madam? Aunt Cheng is just like my own aunt. It is my duty to serve her. Madam, you must have drunk some water. Have a drink first! I have prepared toiletries outside. Madam, go wash up first! After washing up, let Lady Vanilla take you two to have breakfast. I will just serve Aunt Cheng here."

"Then thank you for your hard work, Madam Scholar. We, the old servants, will not be polite to you."

Nanny Xia smiled brightly and went out with Nanny Qiu.

"Aunt Cheng, I'll help you change your clothes. After you're done washing up, I'll take you to have breakfast with the Queen, okay?"

Madam Cheng was both happy and sad as she held Li Xiuxiu's hand: "That's great! My daughter has suffered so much over the years, but fortunately she has found the right person. The emperor is a man who values ​​love and friendship, and has been treating her the same way all these years. It can be said that the suffering has not been in vain."

Li Xiuxiu helped Madam Cheng change her clothes and wash up, and then helped her to go see the Empress. When she came out, Lancao came to call her.

After washing up, Cheng Shiyin sat back on the bed. When she heard Lancao's voice outside, she hurriedly asked Qinqi to go and greet the old lady.
