The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 291 Bet Again

Time passed slowly, and the candlelight in the room was getting darker and darker. Song Zhuoxing looked at the paper on the door and window, his gaze was as deep as a starry night.

The candlelight was extinguished, the door opened from the inside, and Cui Hengyue came out.

"Get her something to eat." Cui Hengyue said to Song Zhuoxing.

Song Zhuoxing winked at Runzhu, and Runzhu immediately went to prepare meals.

Seeing Cui Hengyue walking into the yard, Song Zhuoxing followed him: "How is it going? Is everything going well?"

Cui Hengyue shook her head slightly: "It's not going well."

Song Zhuoxing was about to say that he could help, when he suddenly smelled blood, his face changed slightly: "Are you injured? Or is the old wound open again?"

Hearing this, Cui Hengyue looked at her left arm with a calm expression: "I accidentally suffered some skin trauma when I was sparring with Xie Silang in the palace. It's fine, just go back and apply some medicine."

Song Zhuoxing reached out and grabbed her left arm, looked at it under the moonlight, and then pushed her down on the stone bench: "It's not easy to leave the house, is it? The wound is open, I'll help you re-bandage it."

After saying that, without waiting for Cui Hengyue's consent, he tore off her sleeve, exposing the wound, took out the wound medicine, and sprinkled the powder on the wound.

Finally, he took out the veil from his bosom and bandaged the wound.

Cui Hengyue didn't say a word, just watched him do all this quietly.

When Runzhu came over with the food box, he saw his master concentrating on bandaging Cui Hengyue's wound, so he didn't go there and went straight into the room.

"Okay." Song Zhuoxing bandaged the wound, and handed over the medicine bottle: "This wound medicine was given to me by Zhen Jiu, and the medicine is not bad, you can take it back and use it."

"Thank you."

Cui Hengyue took the medicine bottle, turned it around twice in her hands, and suddenly raised her head to look into Song Zhuoxing's eyes with a serious expression: "Can I still trust you?"

Song Zhuoxing's heart trembled, without any hesitation, he immediately replied: "Last time I had to, but from now on, I will never do anything that is not good for you, even if I die."

Hearing this, Cui Hengyue was shocked, and she decided to gamble again.

"Where's Su Biwen?"

Why did you suddenly ask about Su Biwen?

Song Zhuoxing was puzzled, and answered truthfully: "His injury is quite serious. The doctor said that he must stay in bed for rest. He hasn't got out of bed since he came back."

"Does he know Lu'er?" Cui Hengyue asked again.

"He doesn't know, I didn't tell him."

Cui Hengyue felt at ease, and said slowly: "Since he doesn't know, there is no need to tell him in the future.

"You find a safe place to place Lu'er. Don't let anyone find her, and don't tell me. When I need her, I will ask you."

Song Zhuoxing agreed without thinking, "Okay."

Cui Hengyue stuffed the medicine bottle into her bosom and stood up: "Last time you helped me escape, I owe you one favor, plus the matter of Lu'er, I owe you two favors in total.

"If you encounter trouble in the future, you can come to me, and I will return the favor to you."

Song Zhuoxing smiled and said "Okay", but secretly decided in his heart that he would not go to her even if he was in trouble, he wanted her to owe him forever.

In this way, she will remember him.

"I am leaving."

Cui Hengyue jumped onto the wall and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

An hour later, Cui Hengyue returned to Jinglan Garden safely.

"You're back."

Although Cui Hengyue's footsteps were very soft, Miss Wen was a light sleeper, so she was woken up by the noise.

"Well, it's not yet dawn, you continue to sleep, I'm going to change clothes." Cui Hengyue entered the inner room after finishing speaking.

Mrs. Wen fell back to sleep.
-
After dawn, Mrs. Wen came to the bed and called softly, "Yuanniang, it's time to go and pay my respects to the old lady."

"Well"

Cui Hengyue, who was woken up, was a little irritable, turned around and faced inside: "Let Shuifu go to Fuhai Courtyard and say, I want to recuperate, so I won't go to pay my respects today."

Miss Wen thought that she didn't sleep much in the palace and went out again last night, so she left the room lightly.

As soon as she walked outside, Shui Fu came over: "You are still injured, let me take care of Yuanniang, you go back to your room to rest."

Lady Wen lowered her voice: "Yuanniang's wound hurts, she asked you to go to Fuhai Courtyard to tell the old lady, and I won't go to pay her respects today."

Let her go to Fuhai Courtyard to face the unreasonable old lady?
Shui Fu was not happy in her heart, and blurted out: "I think Yuan Niang is asking you to go to Fuhai Courtyard. You don't want to face the old lady and just push the errand to me. You are too unkind."

"Yuanniang said, let you go to Fuhai Courtyard, if you don't believe me, you can go in and ask Yuanniang." Lady Wen's expression was light.

Shuifu: "."

Since she said so, it must be true.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Shui Fu's face, and she said stiffly: "Forget it, for the sake of your injury not recovering, I'll go there for you."

After finishing speaking, she walked out while arranging the bi-color fish-shaped jade pendant on her waist.

After all, she is also a member of Chu Palace, so the old lady will not blame her, right?
Before going to Fuhai Courtyard, Shui Fu went to the kitchen first, saw Shui Rong standing at the door, and asked in confusion, "Why are you here? Why don't you go in?"

Shui Rong looked gloomy and looked very angry: "They said that except for the old lady and the eldest lady in the backyard, the rest of the people are not allowed to use the kitchen without authorization.

"Additional dishes can be added in each house and hospital, but the ingredients must be brought by yourself, or purchased from the kitchen with money.

"If you want your cook to cook, you have to ask the old lady or the eldest lady for instructions."

After hearing this, Shui Fu couldn't help cursing: "What kind of broken rules is this? There are so many masters and so many servants in the Jingguo Mansion, can they be busy?"

At this time, a cook came out and said with a blank expression: "Don't worry about this, the two young ladies, there are two big kitchens in the Yasukuni mansion, one cooks for the master, and the other cooks for the servants.

"Also, the Yasukuni Mansion has the most servants, not to mention one Yasukuni Mansion, even if there are two Yasukuni Mansions, we can handle it."

"You..." Shui Fu was so angry that she couldn't speak, she pulled Shui Rong up and left: "What's the big deal, let's go."

Walking outside the big kitchen, Shui Rong broke free from Shui Fu's hand, and said quietly: "Actually, there are not only two big kitchens in the Yasukuni Mansion, the old lady and the big lady's courtyard each have a small kitchen."

Shui Fu paused and couldn't help sighing: "Oh, the old lady is the owner of the backyard, and the eldest lady is the future owner of the backyard, so it's not surprising that they have a small kitchen.

"However, this Yasukuni Mansion breaks too many rules, which is more troublesome than Yunxuan Temple. If we want to impress Yuanniang with food, I'm afraid we have to find another way."

Ugh--

Shui Rong couldn't help but sighed in her heart, she thought it was a trivial matter and could be done easily, but she didn't expect that there were no trivial matters in the Yasukuni Mansion.

"Don't think about it, accompany me to Fuhai Courtyard."

Shui Fu grabbed Shui Rong's arm and dragged her towards Fuhai Courtyard.

When we arrived at Fuhai Courtyard, there were already many people standing outside Mrs. Cui's room. Except for the third room and the fourth room, the owners of the other rooms were all here.

"Why are there only two of you? Where's the elder sister?" Cui Erniang saw Shui Fu and Shui Rong, and raised her voice to ask.

Seeing everyone looking over, Shui Fu was a little nervous, and dared not speak after saluting.

Shui Rong calmly walked in front of Mrs. Cui: "Ma'am, Yuan Niang was injured in the martial arts competition with Guard Xie in the palace yesterday, His Majesty specially ordered Guard Xie to send Yuan Niang back home to recover from her injuries.

"Earlier this morning, Yuan Niang wanted to greet the old lady, but her wound hurt so badly that she couldn't get out of bed, so she ordered us to come and apologize to the old lady."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Cui immediately became nervous: "Yuan Niang is in severe pain, did you call the doctor?"

"Ma'am, don't worry, Yuanniang is fine after taking the medicine ordered by the imperial physician, but after taking the medicine, she tends to feel drowsy, and Yuanniang fell asleep again." Shui Rong lied without blushing.

Hearing this, Mrs. Cui was at ease, and her tone was gentle: "In that case, you go back and take care of Yuan Niang, I will tell the old lady about this matter."

Shui Fu was overjoyed that she didn't have to face Mrs. Cui, and hurriedly pulled Shui Rong to thank and leave.
