Chapter 519 - 271: Meeting Again_3
Next to the bed, there was a small door that led to a tiny washroom when opened.
Leaving the room, she arrived at the maid’s quarters. Qian Yixiu had the maids move elsewhere to make room for Monkey Brother and Monkey Sister.
Monkey Brother and Monkey Sister were taken aback by the sparse furnishings in the room, turning up their noses at its simplicity. Qian Yixiu laughed and said, "The things we brought haven’t been unpacked yet. Tomorrow, once we’ve opened the trunks, we’ll set up your new home."
Only then did the two monkeys reluctantly agree.
Exiting to the backyard, she found peach trees, banana plants, and bamboo growing; at the far end stood a row of houses, totaling six small rooms. Three were for the servants, one was a small kitchen for boiling water, and the remaining two were storerooms. Qian Yixiu had one of the storerooms cleared out for the maid’s residence.
After giving her instructions, she was extremely tired and went to the washroom. After freshening up, she went to bed.
The next day, she was still sleeping soundly when Blue Bead and Zhi Fen woke her up. The Empress Dowager wanted an audience with her, so she needed to get up early for breakfast and to dress up.
Pink Pearl, Bai Zhu, and Xiao Hong brought breakfast back from the kitchen: three bowls of stiff rice porridge, three steamed egg custards, six small pearl meatballs, six steam buns, four scallion oil rolls, four rose pastries, and four plain buns.
This was the breakfast for Qian Yixiu, Monkey Brother, and Monkey Sister.
