Daughter of Hou's Mansion

120 The Bitter Meat of Success

Qingluan naturally didn't know what happened in the Xia family.

The people in Weiyuanhou's Mansion were very efficient, and it only took three days to restore the hot spring village to seven or eighty-eight, and Wei Xin'er and the two aunts in the palace also resumed teaching. Maybe everyone has shared adversity. On the contrary, the two aunts treated Wei Xiner more affectionately than before. They had spent most of their lives immersed in the palace, and they knew the twists and turns in the harem best, so while teaching Wei Xiner the rules, More to teach her how to survive in the harem.

In order to let Wei Xiner have more time to study, Qingluan directly left the morning time to Wei Xiner.In this way, Qingluan's whole day is free, but because of the presence of a sleazy treasure, she won't be free for long.

In the morning, after Qingluan had finished her breakfast, she heard Xia Zhi come in and say, "Here comes the little fan."

Qingluan felt helpless when he thought of that cunning boy.Shangguan is definitely an unreliable master, but this little fan is an even more unreliable slave than his master.She really remembered that on the second day after Shangguan Jue was injured, Little Fan called for Hot Spring Zhuangzi.Seeing Shangguanjue lying on the bed injured, he immediately cried like his parents died.

Shangguan Jue, who had been sleeping soundly, was woken up by crying, and the slap flew away, and the crying sound like a magic sound piercing through the brain stopped.

Later, Xiao Fan had to stay in Wenquan Zhuangzi to take care of Shangguanjue. Qingluan had no objection to this point. After all, he was Shangguanjue's personal servant. Good intentions brought him a pair of living treasures, master and servant.

"Let him in." Qingluan waved his hand, if he didn't let that kid in, he could spend a whole day outside the yard.

Xia Zhi answered yes with a bitter face, the little fan at the door heard Da Qingluan call him in, and his face and eyes disappeared with a smile, "Sister Xia Zhi, you have worked hard." The little fan's mouth is very sweet, Qingluan Whether it's a big maid or a young maid, it's very cheerful to call her sister.

Xiao Fan's face is the kind of baby face that is easy to deceive. When she smiles, there are two dimples on her face. After a long time, Xia Zhi realizes that the person in front of her who always calls her sister Xia Zhi is actually three years older than her.

Xia Zhi led the little fan into the room, Qingluan glanced at the little fan who was smiling happily, and asked helplessly: "Tell me, what does he want to eat this time?"

The little fan looked stupid like how do you know, and then suddenly realized: "Miss Wei really understands our master, he is not a foodie by nature, but the food produced by the Zhuangzi of the girl's family is very delicious, the servant looked at our family. My father is a little bit reluctant to leave."

If Shangguan Jue was here, he would have slapped this kid away with a slap, but he secretly dismantled his stage where he couldn't see, wouldn't he deserve a beating?

Qingluan couldn't help rubbing her forehead, she really didn't understand why Shangguanjue chose such a bastard as his personal servant.

"Get to the point." Seeing him opening his mouth endlessly, Qingluan couldn't help interrupting him.

The noisy voice of the little fan stopped abruptly, rolled its big round eyes, and then said: "I want to eat the fish soup from the day before yesterday."

Qingluan nodded and said: "You go back first, I'll send it to him when it's finished."

Only then did the little fan happily leave.

Qingluan tidied up and changed into clothes that were easy to work with. In her last life, Qingluan was the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Weiyuan, but she learned good cooking skills for Lin Zixuan, because at that time Lin Zixuan's mother, Her mother-in-law likes to eat the meals she cooks, so she thinks hard every day about what to do for her.

But later she found out that it wasn't that Mother Lin admired his craftsmanship, but because it was a way to torment her. Watching the eldest daughter of the Weiyuan Hou Mansion wash her hands and make soup for her mother-in-law, this made Mother Lin I have a sense of accomplishment in my heart.

She asked herself that since the day she married into the Lin family, she had treated everyone sincerely, but in return she had fake smiles.

It was only later that she realized that it wasn't that she was bad, but that it was because of the low self-esteem in the Lin family's bones. People like them hoped that their sons could cling to the powerful and get married with the Marquis of Weiyuan in order to bring them a brighter future. , but they didn't want to be overwhelmed by this noble daughter-in-law, so they smiled on the surface, but secretly they kept torturing her.

At that time, I was really ridiculous. I swallowed all the grievances because of Lin Zixuan. Every time my sister-in-law came to visit her, I always put on a happy feeling, but fortunately, I was the only one who could decide whether I was happy or not. clear.

"Girl, aren't you going to the kitchen?" Seeing Qingluan suddenly startled, Xia Zhi raised her voice and asked.

Qingluan suddenly regained consciousness, smiled and shook his head, those things are already in the past.

The master and the servant went to the kitchen, Xia Zhi couldn't help but said: "Girl, that prince's tongue is really good, whenever you cook the dishes yourself, he will ask the little fan to order again the next day."

When Qingluan thought about it, it was true, because Shangguan was definitely injured because of him, so Qingluan also paid special attention to his food, and several dishes were cooked by herself, but any dishes cooked by herself, the second Ri Xiaofan will definitely ask to do it again, maybe he can really learn his own craftsmanship.

***********************************

When the little fan came out of Qingluan, she was in a good mood, and turned back humming a little tune.

As soon as Shangguanjue heard his voice in the room, he yelled directly: "Don't get out of here." 13acv.

The little fan ran in quickly and saw Shangguan Jue sitting on the edge of the bed with a swollen face, and said with a smile: "Master, my servant is very angry when you yell at someone, I'm afraid this injury will heal?"

Shangguanjue raised his hand and smashed the teacup on one side, the little fan reached out to grab it, and the teacup landed firmly in his palm, and said courteously: "Master, don't be angry, this fall It doesn't matter if you bought things, it would be bad if Miss Wei misunderstood that you have a bad temper.

Shangguan Jue put the teapot back on the spot with a sullen face. This misunderstanding was just a wound in his heart. Senior Brother Unscrupulous still wanted to give him a hand when he was leaving. Miss Wei didn't know if she was hurt or not. Affected by Murong Yulai's words, he seldom came to this courtyard, and even the daily meals were only sent over by someone.He couldn't wait to slap Murong Yuruo with his palm, that bt didn't want him to be proud, now that he lives in this hot spring village, not far from the main courtyard where Qingluan lives, but he still can't see anyone, this Let his heart scratch his heart and lungs.

"Master, just tell Miss Wei that Murong is a son and not a girl." The little fan sat down on the stool and knocked the melon seeds.He is also very boring in this yard, the master can already stand up, but he still pretends to be weak, even a slave like him will despise him, how can this be a way to chase girls?This is obviously self-torture.

Shangguan Jue's face turned even darker when he heard the words: "You think I don't want to, then I have to see her."

The little fan said: "Master, according to my opinion, Miss Wei is very kind to you. She is willing to cook for you by herself. I must be grateful to you from the bottom of my heart."

Shangguan Jue's face paled when he heard this, his tongue has always been very good, ever since the dishes that came out of the kitchen were made by two people, he asked Little Fan to inquire, and he was very happy after inquiring. The other dish was made by Qingluan, and after that, he asked the little fan to start ordering repeatedly, always feeling that no matter what dish was made by Qingluan, the taste would be particularly good.

"Master, if you said that your wound has suddenly deteriorated, Miss Wei will have to come over to see if you are worried about your hand. Then you will take the opportunity to explain the matter of the uncle, or it will be fine." The little fan approached Shangguan and gave it to him. idea.

Shangguan Jue thought for a moment, then murmured: "The wound has worsened?"

After a long while, Shangguan Jue suddenly turned red and felt hot all over, he said to Xiao Fan repeatedly: "Little Fan, hurry up and invite Miss Wei, Master's wound seems to be healed."

The little fan saw that his forehead was sweating, and his skin was so red that it could bleed, he patted Shangguan Jue on the shoulder and said, "Master, calm down, the temperature on your body will make the doctor think that you are going to die soon." of."

Shangguan Jue gave the little fan a hard look, but still slightly absorbed the internal force circulating in his body.Only then did the little fan rush out the door.

Qingluan was preparing fish in the kitchen, when the little fan ran in panting and said, "Miss Wei, it's not good, I think our master's wound seems to have deteriorated, and he seemed to have a fever when he went back just now. What should I do?"

Qingluan couldn't help being startled when he heard the words, and he didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he said, "Don't panic, I'll go and see him, Xia Zhi, you go and invite Doctor Zhou over."

Because many people in Hot Spring Village were injured, Wei Che directly invited the doctor who is best at seeing trauma in Shangjing.

Xia Zhi replied and went to Doctor Zhou's courtyard, while Qingluan and Xiao Fan went straight to the courtyard where Shangguan Jue lived.

Seeing that he had invited Qingluan into the courtyard as soon as he got off the horse, Little Fan couldn't help but make a victory gesture for himself in his heart.

Qingluan entered Shangguanjue's room, and saw him lying on the bed with his eyes closed, his face was flushed with heat, and his forehead was dripping with sweat.Qingluan's heart was anxious, and he didn't care about the defense of men and women, so he went up to hold Shangguanjue's hand, and asked repeatedly: "Shangguanjue, Shangguanjue, how are you doing?"

Shangguan seemed to have heard her voice, and reluctantly opened his eyes. Because Qingluan rushed over from the kitchen, he was wearing a lake-colored double-breasted jacket, and even a little hairpin ornament on his head. Nothing, just wrapped his hair with a piece of blue cloth, and the extremely plain attire gave Shangguan a feeling of palpitation.

Seeing his grandfather staring at Miss Wei in a daze, the little fan on the side couldn't help thinking, this man usually looks very smart, but why does he act like a fool when he meets Miss Wei? The little fan is worried that he will continue to stare like this Qingluan saw that it would arouse Qingluan's suspicion, so he hurriedly raised his voice: "Master, don't worry about it, you are about to have an accident, what will you do little fan?"

Only then did Shangguan Jue react suddenly, opened his mouth, and wriggled softly: "I feel uncomfortable."

Qingluan didn't notice the strangeness between the master and servant, so he stretched out his hand to touch Shangguan Jue's forehead, and when he touched the hot spot, he was startled, and quickly ordered to the little fan: "Hurry up, get cold water in. "

The little fan immediately responded with a cry and left.

Qingluan took out the veil to wipe off Shangguanjue's sweat, Shangguanjue felt all the blood rushing to his face, and his face turned even redder.Qingluan was worried, and subconsciously held his hand to comfort him: "It's okay, the doctor will be here soon, just wait a little longer."

Her hands are really small, soft and smooth, like a feather brushing gently across her heart, Shangguan Jue was delighted, but still put on a painful expression on his face, turned his backhand Holding Qingluan's little hand, he hummed in pain: "Am I going to die?"

Qingluan immediately glared at him and said: "What nonsense, you won't die, you will be fine."

Several times they met, Qingluan gave Shangguanjue the most stares like this, but today this stare sweetened Shangguanjue's heart, wishing she could stare twice more.

The small fan came in with a basin of cold water, Qingluan got up and wrung the clean veil, then carefully applied the veil to Shangguan Jue's forehead, not forgetting to comfort him.Little Fan looked at his grandfather happily unable to find Bei from behind, and felt ruthless contempt in his heart.

But such a good time is always short-lived, after a while, Xia Zhi rushed over with Dr. Zhou.Qingluan quickly gave up her seat, and the soft touch of her palm was suddenly replaced by a rough hand, and Shangguanjue felt extremely disappointed.

Dr. Zhou took the pulse carefully for a while, shook his head and sighed while checking the pulse, which made Qingluan's heart hang.

After a long while, Doctor Zhou stood up with a troubled expression on his face and said: "Master's pulse condition is stable, so it is reasonable to say that the injury did not hurt the internal organs, but the flushing of the son's face and the trembling of the body are indeed symptoms of fever. Let me take another look at the son's wound."

Qingluan heard the words and quickly avoided going out.

When Shangguan Jue was touched by Doctor Zhou's hand, he was a little lucky, his back shook without a trace, and the wound that had just grown up suddenly opened again.Xiao Fan watched clearly from the side, and said secretly, his master really went all out this time, not even afraid of pain.

But thinking about it, his grandfather would foolishly block the knife for her in order to get close to Miss Wei, and of course he could deliberately open the wound in order to win Miss Wei's sympathy.

Dr. Zhou lifted the quilt, only to find that the upper gauze on Shangguan Jue's back was wet again, and the mattress was even bright red.Dr. Zhou shook his head and said, "I'm afraid the wound will be opened because of too much movement. Brother, you should take care of it carefully."

The little fan found out that Dr. Zhou was blaming him for not taking good care of me, and he felt extremely wronged in his heart. Which eye of yours saw that I didn't take good care of me, it was obviously his own intention, okay?

Of course, Xiao Fan only dared to murmur these words in his heart, if he really exposes the master's tricks, he is afraid that he will expose himself.

There is no trouble in the family.Dr. Zhou reapplied medicine to Shangguan Jue's wound, and replaced it with a clean white cloth, and then prescribed another dose of antipyretic medicine to Qingluan: "Master's wound has opened again, which caused the fever. Brother is too careless, girl should find a more careful maid to take care of her."

In front of Qingluan, Dr. Zhou once again mentioned that the little fan was not dedicated enough, and he hated his teeth itching, and had to keep apologizing for his actions.

Qingluan thought for a while and told Xia Zhi who was beside her: "For the next few days, you should take care of this place. I feel more at ease when you are here."

Xia Zhi actually had feelings for Shangguan Jue, after all, he was injured because he saved his own lady, so he nodded in agreement without hesitation.Only then did Qingluan hand over the medicine prescribed by Dr. Zhou to Little Fan, and at the end she did not forget to say: "This time, I was too careless."

The little fan scolded Shangguanjue's deceitful behavior in his heart, but on the other hand, he assured with a bitter face: "Don't worry, girl, this time the slave will definitely not make mistakes again." The little fan stared at the prescription viciously, thinking in his heart Do you want to increase the weight of Coptis chinensis to vent his hatred.

Looking at his back, Qingluan always felt unreliable, so she said: "Xia Zhi, go and watch, that little fan really looks too unreliable."

Xia Zhi glanced at the room and said hesitantly: "But, girl, you are the only one here."

"Okay, you go, why does he care so much about a patient." After saying this, Qingluan walked in again.

Shangguan Jue heard the conversation between their master and servant clearly, and bubbles of joy kept popping up in his heart. If he had known earlier, he should have used this trick earlier, it was so stupid.

Qingluan went inside, saw Shangguanjue's drowsy look, a trace of guilt rose in his heart, he soaked the veil in cold water again before putting it on his forehead.Shangguan Jue's eyeballs moved slightly, but in Qingluan's eyes, he thought that he was not sleeping well, so he wiped his sweat and comforted him softly.

Shangguanjue felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he pretended to be extremely uneasy, grabbed Qingluan's hand tightly, and said something vaguely, Qingluan approached slightly, and finally I heard him say "Miss Wei, be careful."

Qingluan's expression froze, and a strange feeling surged in his heart, did he miss her even when he fell asleep?She thought that no one in this world except her brother would be willing to give up her life to pull her, but Shangguan Jue, who had only met a few times, blocked the knife for her without hesitation. , I am afraid that she will never block the sword for Shangguan Jue, so she does not understand what Shangguan Jue is thinking, muttering like asking Shangguan Jue or asking herself: "Why?"

Why do you block the knife for her, why do you even care about your life for her.

Shangguan never knew why Qingluan had such a sad tone, and his heart throbbed when he asked "why", shouldn't she be bright and proud, with a proud family status, and someone who loves her Brother, why does her tone contain the desolation of seeing all the things in the world? This shouldn't be what she should have at her age.

Shangguanjue really wanted to get up to comfort him, but the last trace of rationality grabbed him and prevented him from jumping up from the bed.Fortunately, Qingluan was only emotional for a while, and soon returned to normal. When Xia Zhi and Xiaofan boiled the medicine and came in, watching Shangguan Jue drink the medicine, Qingluan left.

On the second day, Qingluan still came to see Shangguanjue at this point.Because Xia Zhi was staring at him, Shangguan would never do anything bad. After a night of recuperation, his complexion was much better than yesterday.

Seeing this, Qingluan said happily: "My lord looks much better today."

Shangguan Jue was a little unhappy, he remembered that Qingluan called him by his name yesterday, but now he changed it to Shizi again.

"Miss Wei, your brother and I are good friends. Doesn't the title of the son of this world shorten the distance between people? You can just call me by my name." Shangguan Jue looked at Qingluan with a smile on his face.

It has to be said that Shangguanjue's skin has added a lot of points to him. His beautiful phoenix eyes were full of smiles, clean and sincere. Qingluan really couldn't say anything to refuse, so he could only follow his words: "If that's the case, Then I will call you Shangguanjue from now on."

Although Shangguan Jue wanted Qingluan to call him "Jue" or "Mo Yang", he also knew that some things had to be done step by step, at least now Qingluan no longer looked at him with disgust as before.

"Miss Wei, I heard from Little Fan that it was thanks to you yesterday." Shangguan Jue's expression definitely did not reveal that he had played another bitter trick yesterday.

Then Qingluan said slightly embarrassed: "Shangguanjue, you are my savior, and I should take care of you."

Shangguan Jue quickly waved his hand and said: "Miss Wei, don't take it to heart, it's just a matter of little effort, if you keep thinking about it, I'd be embarrassed."

Seeing his master's behavior, Xiao Fan couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, it's so hypocritical to pretend he doesn't care when he clearly looks like you're going to praise me.

Of course, Qingluan and Shangguanjue didn't know about the little fan's complaints, but the relationship between Qingluan and Shangguanjue seemed to be brought closer because of this incident. The two chatted without saying a word for more than half an hour. got up and left.

After Qingluan left, Shangguanjue was clearly in a happy mood, and even looked at the little fan much more pleasing to the eye, and said cheerfully: "Little fan, didn't you fall in love with that snuff bottle of my master? I will reward you when I go back tomorrow." gone."

The little fan thanked him with a smile, and then asked with a straight face: "Master, when do you plan to go back? If you leave the ground for a long time, there is no guarantee that the mansion will not find you."

The little fan's words successfully made Shangguan Jue's good mood disappear, his face sank slightly and he said: "It's not like the man in the house can't see you well. Okay, let's take another three days, and the year is approaching, and they can't stay together forever Stay on this Zhuangzi, and after three days, you go and invite Dr. Zhou to see my injury, and then we will bid farewell to Miss Wei."

The little fan responded, and then slapped his forehead suddenly and said, "Master, you haven't explained the matter of the uncle to Miss Wei yet?"

Shangguan Jue felt annoyed for a while, how could he forget such an important matter, uh, let's see if there is a chance to explain to Qingluan again in the next three days.

But Shangguan Jue obviously didn't expect that there would be worse things waiting for him in the afternoon.

At noon, after Qingluan and Wei Xin'er finished their meal together, Wang Daming's daughter-in-law said that several carriages had arrived at the door, saying they were from Prince Qin's residence.Upon hearing this, Qingluan hurriedly invited people in. There were four of them in a group. The two in front were nuns who were in their early forties. .And behind them are two young girls, one red and one green, who look like maids, but there is frivolity in their eyebrows, and even the way they walk looks like they will fall down when the wind blows. There is no trace of stability in his appearance.

Qingluan raised her eyebrows, these four people probably didn't have any kindness.

The two nuns were not in a hurry to salute Qingluan when they saw Qingluan, but sized Qingluan up with a pair of critical eyes. Qingluan's heart gradually became a little annoyed. Put on airs.

After a while, the two women led the two maidservants to salute and said: "I have met Miss Wei."

Qingluan had a faint smile on his face: "Who are you?"

The woman with a long face said: "The slave's surname is Ma, and this one's surname is Xu. We are all servants of the side concubine Xiao of Prince Qin's residence."

Qingluan nodded and said: "Forgive my blind eyes, it's because the two nuns are so well-behaved, I couldn't figure out which family in Shangjing could teach such a well-behaved nunnery."

Qingluan's words were full of irony, and the two women couldn't help but tighten their faces. At first glance, they thought that the girl from the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion was soft, but who knew that the inside was also a rose with thorns.

"Is there something for the two nuns to come here today?" Qingluan asked lightly after sarcasm.

After seeing Qingluan's mouth, the round-faced person didn't dare to push it too hard, and said with a smile: "The old side concubine Xiao ordered us two to pick up our family's son. This son won't come home for a long time. I am very worried, before the old prince went to the northwest, he asked our old side concubine to treat the eldest son as his own grandson, so he hastily sent us here because he did not hear that our eldest son is here."

Qingluan glanced around the four of them with a cold face. Regarding the fact that Shangguan was recuperating in this village, Qingluan told those who knew about it to keep silent. After all, Wei Xiner and her are living in this village now. For an unmarried girl, if Shangguan Jue had no other choice, Qingluan would not let him stay here if she had no other choice.

She didn't know who leaked the news. After all, these four people are coming to ask for someone aggressively. If one of them fails, it will not only ruin her own reputation, but also Wei Xiner's reputation.

"Who said that Prince Qin's son is here? Could it be that the two mothers want to pour dirty water on our Wei family." Qingluan asked in a cold tone.
