Concubine like a house

Chapter 25
Three days later, Yunci still hadn't returned home.On the contrary, the guards who went with him sent a letter back, saying that Master Hou, with Zhu Ying and a few others, insisted on going out of the city to find a cure for the epidemic.

When the news came, Mrs. Tai was very worried and furious, and immediately spread the word that the second master Yun Qi took people out of the city and must find Yun Ci back.

When Yun Qi took orders in Mrs. Tai's house, he seemed a little reluctant.At this time, no one is willing to leave Yanlan City, for fear that they will catch the epidemic and lose their lives.The second aunt was listening, she didn't dare to say a word, she just asked the doctor to prepare a lot of medicinal materials in private, and asked Yun Qi to take it on the road just in case.

The Yun Manor suddenly fell into a panic, and for a while, the plague seemed to be menacing.What's more, Yun Qi has always been a licentious person, Chu Xiu didn't expect him to find Yun Ci back.Unexpectedly, this Second Master Yun brought back good news in just two days with his troops out of the city.

It's just that the person who spread the news died outside the city gate before entering Yanlan City. Before he died, he told the news to the city guards before he swallowed his last breath.

The steward Yunzhong sent someone to collect his body and cremate him to prevent the plague from spreading into the city, but even so, Mrs. Tai still ordered everyone in Yunfu not to go out, and made medicine. Only eat as a meal.

Two days later, the Yunci brothers returned to Yanlan City.Yun Ci didn't go back to the residence immediately, but went to another hospital to study the prescriptions to prevent the epidemic; Yun Qi was proud of his spring breeze, and he didn't forget to praise himself in front of Mrs. Tai.

Madam Tai smiled and listened to Yun Qi boasting, as if she had expected Yun Qi to find him back, she only asked him: "Did you have a diagnosis before entering the mansion? Are both Master Hou and you unwell?"

"Big brother personally diagnosed me and said that I was not infected with the epidemic, so I was released."

Mrs. Tai nodded: "You've worked hard these few days, go down and rest." After saying that, he looked at Yunqi's biological mother, Huashi, "It's not easy for him, you go and take care of him in his garden for two days."

Hearing this, Second Aunt Tai Hua was overjoyed, she thanked Yun Qi for a long time before leaving together with Yun Qi.

The rule of the Marquis of Lixin Mansion is that all sons are raised under the knees of their biological mothers, unless the biological mother made a mistake, she will be deprived of the right to raise the parent and child.This method is not quite the same as other high schools, but it is a little more humane, but it can also highlight the identity and majesty of the son.

Because of the rules that have been handed down for hundreds of years, Yun Qi has been raised under Hua Shi's knees, and Yun Xian has also followed his biological mother Wen Shi.In this way, until the age of 13, she will be matched with a servant girl and move to live in a separate garden.And since then, the mother and son can't communicate too closely, especially the son can't stay overnight with the mother, unless the mistress agrees.

This is also the rule that I only figured out when I came to Mrs. Tai's Rongjin Hall when I came out of Xiuxiu.With such an association, Chuxiu has doubts about Yun Qi's current living conditions.He is undoubtedly the most extravagant of the three brothers of the Yun family, and he is an anomaly in the Lixinhou Mansion, which is well-educated and well-known all over the world.

But if Yun Qi grew up with his biological mother, Hua Shi, how could she just ignore her son's ridiculous behavior?There are only three explanations for this: either Hua Shi deliberately indulged her; or she spoiled Yun Qi too much; or, Yun Qi's performance was just an illusion...

Chuxiu stayed in Mrs. Tai's garden for seven days.On the morning of the eighth day, Mrs. Tai had breakfast, and she was left alone to talk.

Mrs. Tai rewarded her with a string of ancient sandalwood beads, and said: "You have served well these days. Today, when Lord Hou returns to the mansion, you should go back to Zhiyanxuan to welcome him."

Yunci is coming back!Chuxiu suppressed the joy in his heart, lowered his eyebrows and accepted the reward.

Mrs. Tai smiled kindly, then turned to Mama Chi and said, "He is really a smart person. It is worthwhile for Lord Hou to bring him back after traveling thousands of miles. In the future, knowing that Yanxuan has a decent mistress, she can be assigned to be her own."

Hearing this, Chuxiu's palm holding the Buddha beads seemed to spark a fire, burning unbearably.With a forced smile on her face, trying to hide her strangeness, she bowed three times to Mrs. Tai and thanked Mother Chi before she came out of Rongjin Hall.After that, nothing happened all the way, and I went out of Xiu and returned to Zhiyanxuan.

Yunci returned to Yunfu at noon, and said that he had researched a prescription to prevent epidemics.As soon as he came back, he went straight to Mrs. Tai's Rongjin Hall, and went with Zhuying, Qianyun and Danxin.Chuxiu waited for a long time in Zhiyanxuan, but he didn't wait for Yun Ci, but instead, he waited for Er Ye Yunqi's maid first.

"Are you sister Chuxiu?" the maid asked as soon as she entered the Zhiyan Pavilion and saw Chuxiu standing in front of the arched carved door.

When Chuxiu saw that the girl was strange, she only smiled and nodded.

"I'm Yueju from Erye's garden, and I'm here to give you something at Erye's order." Yueju said as she took out a small brocade box from her bosom and handed it to Xiudao, "Second Master said, That day he was drunk and rude, please don't blame me."

Chuxiu was very surprised.Where did the master apologize to the servant?She quickly waved her hand at Yueju, indicating that this thing cannot be accepted.

Yueju looks younger than Chuxiu, but her eyebrows and eyes are very handsome, and her smile looks like two crescent moons: "If my sister doesn't accept it, I won't be able to explain to the second master when I go back."

Yueju lowered her voice while talking, and whispered next to Chuxiu's ear: "My sister doesn't know something. This time, the second master went out of the city to find the Hou Ye, and was reprimanded by the Hou Ye again. The second master has been punished by the Hou Ye." He sent me here because of the training, and I would like to trouble you to explain this matter in front of Lord Hou."

It is even more dumbfounding to hear the words out of Xiuxiu.She didn't know what the second master Yun Qi was thinking, and it was fine to be reprimanded by Yun Ci, and she came here to apologize to herself, lest others would not know that he had been abrupt.Now that Yueju had already spoken to this point, she couldn't refuse, so she had to reach out and take the brocade box.

Seeing that Chuxiu didn't refuse any more, Yueju covered her face and giggled, breathing heavily on Chuxiu's face, as if she still had the scent of scented tea: "Sister accepts this thing, and I will do my errands as well." It's over, I'll go back and report to the second master." After saying that, she had already saluted, and walked out of Zhiyan Pavilion with small steps.

Seeing Yueju walking away from Xiuxiu, she sighed helplessly, thinking to herself that she would tell Yunci about this matter some other day, she must not accept such a precious gift casually.Thinking in this way, Chuxiu went back to his residence first, and put away the brocade box properly.

I haven't come back to live in for seven or eight days, and a layer of floating dust has settled in the house.Went out of Xiuxiu to do some sweeping, and just stopped to rest, when I heard a cheerful and charming voice: "Grandma is back!" It was the voice of indifference.

Chuxiu rushed up to greet her, and saw Danxin and Qianyun walking into the yard carrying their respective packages, Danxin walked and said with a smile: "Why are you sweating all over your head, Chuxiu? Why don't you wipe it off quickly! Master went to Qingxin Zhai, I am waiting for you to serve!"

Hearing the words, he didn't bother to say hello to the two of them, he quickly fetched water to wash his face, changed his clothes, and hurried to Qingxinzhai.

Zhuying still guarded the door, saw Chuxiu coming, and whispered with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few days, how is the girl?"

Chuxiu saluted and nodded, pointed to the study with a questioning expression.

"The master is inside, girl go quickly."

Out of Xiuxiu in response to the sound.

Not seen for a few days, Yunci is still dressed in white, still looks like a dusty person, that clear and shallow temperament seems to be otherworldly, almost makes Chuxiu forget the rich status of the person in front of him, and always thinks where he came from Immortals fall into the mortal world.

Yun Ciqing has lost a lot, but there is no sign of tiredness on his face.Chuxiu stopped at the door and stared at him, feeling the tip of his nose sour for a moment, wanting to shed tears.

At this moment, Yunci raised his head from the desk, and saw Chuxiu standing at the door.She is wearing a light green dress today, and the bright sun forms a dense halo behind her, making her look refined and vivid.

At this moment, this scene, this person, couldn't help evoking Yun Ci's longing and anxiety that had been hidden in his heart for several days. "Why are you standing there stupidly at the door?" He smiled at the right time, watching Chuxiu approaching him intently.

Chuxiu was brought back to his senses by this sound, and suddenly he didn't dare to look directly into Yun Ci's eyes, he only pursed his lips and lowered his eyes and walked into the door, feeling a little at a loss.

It was only then that Yun Ci noticed her reddish eyes, and comforted her softly: "When you see the master coming back, why don't you laugh and cry instead?" He waved to her, "Come and help me."

Chuxiu quickly sniffed, and went to help Yunci.The faint scent of medicine came suddenly, which instantly made her feel extremely at ease.

Yunci stood up with Chuxiu's support, and said, "Today, my mother told me that after this epidemic is resolved, she wants me to get married."

Hearing this, Chuxiu's whole body was shocked, but she still lowered her eyes and forced a smile.She understood that according to Yunci's identity and age, it was indeed time to get married.Thinking like this, not only did she feel sore in her heart, but her mind also seemed to feel uncomfortable, and she felt dizzy.

Yunci kept staring at Chuxiu, seeing that she wasn't surprised at all, and she was smiling with downcast eyes, so he pinched her wrist with his backhand, and said in a low voice, "I've been away for seven or eight days this time, and I've figured out some things. I treat you..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt his hands sink, and a delicate body had fallen into his arms.

"Chuxiu... come here!"

Chuxiu seemed to be in a dream, in which she returned to the night when the Zuihua Building caught fire.Only this time, there was no Qin'er to replace her, nor Shen Yu to help her. She herself was chained to the beams of the bed, enduring the scorching flames.

The skin around him was on fire, and the thick smoke was suffocating.The pain in her hair and skin and the oppression in her chest made her breathless, and she couldn't break free from the shackles. She could not wait for salvation, but to wait for death.

Looking at Chuxiu's appearance, Yunci first checked her pulse, then looked at her face, and finally came to a conclusion that Chuxiu was infected with the epidemic.

"The epidemic? How is this possible!" Dan Xin took the lead to retort when she learned about it, "If you go out of the gate of Xiuxiu and don't leave the second gate, we'll be fine after walking outside once. How could she be infected with the epidemic?"

Yun Ci obviously thought about it too, and couldn't help frowning and said: "Maybe someone accidentally brought back the disease, and the body was able to resist it, but passed it to Chuxiu..." At this point, Yun Ci's tone suddenly changed , said decisively, "She can no longer live in the mansion, Zhuying, you arrange someone to send her to another hospital, and drink two doses of the medicine I developed first."

Zhu Ying took the order, and didn't care about men and women, immediately hugged Chuxiu by the waist, and explained to the guards while walking out: "Prepare the car, go to the other courtyard."

Yunci pondered for a moment, and then said to Danxin: "When Zhiyanxuan sprays medicine inside and outside, the servants have to cover their faces with white towels, and change them three times a day. The white towels must be scalded with boiling water, and then exposed to the sun."

Hearing the words, he didn't dare to delay, and was about to turn around and go to do some errands, but he heard Yunci and said: "This matter can't be hidden, when you know that Yanxuan is settled, you go to each garden and say it, be sure to let the co-workers The government will follow suit."

He said yes again and again, and trot away immediately.

At this time, only Qianyun remained in the room.Quiet, reticent, indisputable, and indifferent, this is Yunci's impression of Qianyun.It was because of her temperament that Mrs. Tai pulled her out of Rongjin Hall and sent her to Zhiyanxuan.

"Qian Yun." Yun Ci called her, "Go and report this to your mother, so that she can be fully prepared."

"Aren't you going?" There was a rare ups and downs in Qian Yun's flat tone, and there was a bit of doubt on her face.

"It's at stake to get out of Xiuxiu, I'm going to another courtyard." Yunci replied firmly.
