Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 10

"It's really the second sister," Yao Shizan smiled a little bit on his blood-colored lips, and his gray eyes lit up a little bit, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen the second sister for a long time! The second sister came to see me, very nice!"

I still remember that when my mother hadn't passed away, my second sister was the most affectionate with me!At that time, the current mother was still a concubine!Since when did everything change?Yao Shizan was in a trance for a while, frowning and struggling to remember.

"My sister will come to accompany you often in the future, okay?" Yao Cunhui felt sour in his heart, forced a smile, and almost shed tears.

"Okay! Second sister can't count if she can't talk!" Yao Shizan was very happy and nodded childishly.

Master Yao couldn't help smiling a little more on his face, and looked at his daughter with softer eyes: It seems that this daughter is not completely useless!At least Zan'er likes her!
"Anyway, you're fine, so come and stay with Zan'er more often in the future! You two are brothers and sisters, so you should get closer!"

"Yes, Daddy!" Yao Cunhui smiled sweetly, Li Xiang and Qin Xiang inadvertently passed by out of the corner of his eyes, the faces of those two were indeed a bit ugly.

Ugly is ugly, Yao Cunhui sneered in his heart!

"How much did the young master eat at night? What kind of food did the kitchen bring?" After Yao Shizan couldn't get an answer, Master Yao's eyes fell on Li Xiang and Qin Xiang, and his tone was stern.

"Father..." Yao Shizan frowned slightly, and could only swallow his words when he met his father's sharp eyes.

Lixiang and Qinxiang looked at each other, and had to laugh carefully and said: "Going back to the master, the kitchen has sent medlar stewed mutton with angelica, stewed black chicken with Poria cocos and Gastrodia elata, fried shredded pork with Polygonatum odoratum and ginkgo fruit, stir-fried lily kidney flower, and crucian carp soup with yellow flowers and Atractylodes macrocephala. Master I don't have a good appetite, and I haven't used much..."

"Father, my mouth is bitter. It's because I don't have an appetite. Don't blame them, they've been persuading me to use it more!" Yao Shizan saw that his father seemed to be angry, and tugged on his sleeves beggingly.

Master Yao's expression softened a little, but he was still unhappy and said, "Even if you have a bad appetite, you can't stop eating. How can you go on like this? Why does your mouth feel bitter? After drinking the medicine, you can eat clear candied fruit? No If you have one, ask someone to tell your mother to buy it!"

Yao Shizan hurriedly said: "Yes, there are several kinds of sweet plums, preserved apricots made from honey, kumquats made from honey, winter melon candy, and dried longan. It's just, just."

Yao Cunhui was secretly shocked when he heard that almost every dish name reported by Lixiang contained traditional Chinese medicine.The medicine is three-point poisonous, according to this way of eating, it's no wonder that Yao Shizan's body can bear it!
He is still so young, and he can't leave his mouth with medicine, even a normal person will get sick, let alone he is still a patient?

Talking about this illness, Yao Cunhui secretly became suspicious. She didn't believe that a good person can't get sick because of excessive grief and falling into the water. There must be something tricky here!It's a pity that the entire backyard is now under the control of Mrs. Ma, and she dare not act rashly without sufficient evidence.

"Daddy, Zan'er is not feeling well and has a weak stomach. How can he bear this big fish and meat? Why don't Hui'er cook some clear porridge tomorrow? Five grains nourish people, and he might be able to use something bland! "

"Alright, let's try!" Master Yao nodded.

"Ming'er's servant will tell the kitchen to prepare, how can I work hard for the second lady!" Li Xiang hurriedly laughed out loud.

Yao Cunhui smiled and stopped insisting.

"Zan'er should also go out for a walk more on weekdays, and be active. A better mood and better energy will be good for the illness!" Yao Cunhui laughed again.

"Miss Er was joking. The young master is not in good health. He can't be exposed to the wind or the sun. The doctor told him to take a good rest!" Li Xiang laughed again.

Yao Cunhui sneered, stared at Lixiang and said back: "Zan'er should of course have a good rest, but, why can't I just go for a walk? I'm bored in the house all day long, so who would suffer? Go out Look at the flowers and grass, look at the swimming fish in the lake, wouldn't it be good to have clearer eyes and more energy? You won't take good care of yourself, you won't go to a proper place for a walk, and you must let the young master catch the wind and catch the cold. Exposure to the scorching sun?"

"Second Miss is right!" Master Yao suddenly remembered that one of the causes of his son's illness was excessive sadness, and he might be in a much better mood when he was happy, so he agreed with Yao Cunhui's words very much, nodded and said: "When the weather is good in the future, you can wait for the young master to go out for a walk Let's go, relax!"

"Yes, master!" Li Xiang and Qin Xiang did not dare to disobey Master Yao's words, so they had to nod in agreement.

Master Yao sat for a while longer, seeing the tiredness on Yao Shizan's face, he couldn't bear to disturb him to rest, so he said some kind words to comfort him, and then went out with Yao Cunhui.

Yao Cunhui and Hongliu returned to Luomeiyuan, ordered Hongzhi to bring water to wash his face and remove makeup, left Hongliu to watch the night, and ordered Hongzhi to go back to rest.Hongzhi was much more honest, and she backed away with a polite promise.

Yao Cunhui winked at Hong Liao quietly, Hong Liao understood, and quietly left Luomei Courtyard, and would come back with a big bag of things, calling softly, "Second Miss."

Yao Cunhui lifted the curtain and put on his clothes and got up from the bed, and hurriedly asked: "Is it possible?"

Hong Liao nodded, carefully put the things on the table, rubbed his hands on the clothes, came to help Yao Cunhui up, and said in a low voice: "The servants have brought them, there is nothing left!"

"Prepare paper and pen." Yao Cunhui nodded, sitting in front of the round table, opened the paper bag with a dignified expression, and a strong smell of medicine came over his face.

What she asked Red Polygonum to fetch was the dregs of Yao Shizan's boiled medicine.

Hong Liao prepared a pen and paper as he said, and Yao Cunhui fiddled with the black medicinal residues with his light-white slender fingers, picked up one of them from time to time and looked at it carefully, and then put it under his nose to sniff, or simply put it in his mouth He lightly licked and bit, then took a pen to record something on the paper.

After a long while, Yao Cunhui finally stopped the movement of his hands, put down his pen, shook the recording paper, stared at it without blinking, frowned slightly, and his expression became more and more dignified.

"Second Miss! But this medicine, this medicine—" Red Polygonum suddenly realized what she was doing, her face changed drastically, and she was covered in cold sweat from fright!

Yao Cunhui raised his gentle eyes, smiled at her, pouted his lips and said softly: "Let's deal with it, and don't tell anyone about today's matter, understand?"

"Yes, Second Miss!" Hong Liao's mind was in a turmoil, she never dreamed, and she didn't dare to think, could it be that Madam, actually——

So much so that Rhizoma Polygonum didn't even think about it, why did Second Miss suddenly understand the principles of medicine?
"Second Miss, don't worry, I won't tell you even if I die!" Hong Liao quickly wrapped the paper bag, and added another sentence in a trembling voice, not knowing whether it was An Yao Cunhui's heart or his own.

Yao Cunhui gave a soft "hmm", and stared at the paper in the beating dim candlelight, her heart sank suddenly.

For her who was a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner in her previous life, no one is more familiar with these medicinal materials than her.No wonder Yao Shizan has been ill for a long time!After taking it for a long time, Yao Shizan can only become a useless person, a useless person who will neither live long nor be too short.

Yao Cunhui sneered slightly, slowly folded the prescription in his hand into strips, lit it on the lamp, and watched it slowly turn into ashes in the light of the fire.

Now that she met her, of course she wouldn't let Yao Shizan have trouble.

Early the next morning, I came back from Mrs. Ma's greetings. After breakfast, I heard Hongzhi report: Mother Wen is here!
The corners of Yao Cunhui's lips were raised, and she raised her hand to gently smooth her temple hair. She said with a smile, "Please come in soon! Mother Wen is a rare visitor!"

"Second Miss!" Mother Wen entered the door, bent her knees slightly and made a gesture of greeting, and before Yao Cunhui woke up, she stood up straight again, with a sad face, and said casually with a dazed expression: "Madam ordered this old slave to come over to the Second Miss." Cut the clothes, ask the second lady to measure them, and report the measurements to the old slave."

Yao Cunhui was startled, then squinted slightly, turned her head to look at Mother Wen and said nothing.

Ms. Wen must have stayed up all night, and the smug look in the past was gone, replaced by a haggard face with big dark circles under her eyes.The sideburns were messy, and the hair bun that had been combed oily and smooth in the past was randomly tied, and there were no other accessories except a silver wire flat square that fixed the hair.She was also wearing a tea-brown half-worn jacket and skirt, and tied with a washed-white indigo belt.

I don't know, who would have guessed that just yesterday she was the mother of the big housekeeper who gave orders above all others, and she thought she was the rough washer of the laundry room!
She really has no status, no one takes her seriously!Even if this mother Wen lost power and was punished, she still didn't take her seriously!He was ambiguous, cut corners, and wanted to send her away with just a few words!

The corners of Yao Cunhui's mouth curled up slightly, a half-smile, but a pair of dark eyes just stared at Mother Wen quietly, flatly, and unhappily, unable to see what it meant.

Mama Wen lowered her head and was only thinking about her own thoughts. She didn't see Yao Cunhui's answer for a while, subconsciously raised her head, and crashed into a pair of dark eyes without warning. Trembling, I was a little uneasy and reminded again: "Please ask the second lady to measure yourself, and tell the old slave the size, the old slave is good—"

"I seem to remember," Yao Cunhui interrupted her unhurriedly, and said with a slight smile, "The ladies in the house should send masters from the tailor shop to measure the new clothes, right? Is Mama Wen old? Do you have a bad memory?"

Mother Wen was taken aback for a moment, and stared at Yao Cunhui with wide eyes in surprise, unable to recover for a while.

"Bold!" Hong Liao couldn't stand it anymore, her pretty face tensed, she glared at Mama Wen and said in a low voice, "Mama Wen dares to be so rude to Miss?"

Mother Wen hurriedly withdrew her unscrupulous gaze, and patiently explained: "Miss Er misunderstood, the tailor shop sent masters to come in for tailoring, and they only came when they bought new clothes on a regular basis every year, and what they should buy next season were autumn clothes. , the time has not come yet!"
