Blessed

Chapter 52

Just passing by Qiu Erniang's small courtyard on the way to the Duke's Mansion, Yuzhu sat on the carriage and loaded a basket of mandarin oranges for them to try.The Yuzhu shop has not opened yet, Erniang Qiu has nothing to do, and there is no shortage of jade, gold and silver at home. She takes her daughter to concentrate on making jewelry at home. Filigree inlay is the most difficult craft among crafts. Although she can , but due to limited conditions in the past, I didn't practice much, and it was a little rusty.

No matter what kind of craftsmanship, the more you do it, the more familiar you are, and the more eye-catching artwork you will make.

Yuzhu put a lot of jade and gold and silver threads in Erniang Qiu's yard for her practice.

Yuzhu asked Licorice to carry the tangerines to the small courtyard. The gate was opened by the little girl Meizi. Seeing that it was Yuzhu, she was blessed, "Mr. County, Aunt Qiu is making jewelry in the room. Go in early in the morning. Now Those who haven't come out yet, Miss Yue'e has gone out."

"It's okay, I'm here to give this. This is the citrus that I just got a few days ago." Yuzhu pointed to the bamboo silk basket in Licorice's hand, "Send some here for Erniang and Yue'e to taste, since they are busy Now, you take it to the kitchen and put it away, I have to go to the Duke's mansion, so I will leave first."

Back on the carriage, the coachman drove the carriage and continued towards the alley of the Duke’s Mansion. In the carriage, Licorice put a soft pillow on the back of Yuzhu with moon orchid embroidered gold silk peony silk, "Girl, take a break, there are still some Journey, the servant is calling you when you arrive."

It was windy outside, and it was blowing. The windows on both sides of the carriage were closed, and it was a little dark inside. There was a heater in the corner, and the whole carriage was warm, and Yuzhu was drowsy.

She slept all the way to the Duke's Mansion, and when she arrived, Licorice wrapped her in a cloak before carrying her into the carriage.

Entered from the side door, the concierge directly led the two of them there, never thought of Shen Mei's yard and found out that the little princess was sick again, and was entering the room with a smile on his face, and when he saw Yuzhu, he showed a happy look, "County Jun, are you here?"

Yuzhu asked, "Is the princess sick again?"

Shen Mei's health is not very good, before she met Yuzhu she always fell ill, but after that she didn't know if it was Yuzhu's luck, the princess seldom got sick and her body became stronger.

With a smile on his face, he said, "There was a banquet in the mansion two days ago, and a group of girls went to the pond in the backyard to feed the goldfish. The Princess didn't want to go at all. Mrs. Liu said that the little Princess should also relax and make some friends in her boudoir. The little princess has a stubborn temper, but she still didn't like it, so the Duke was a little displeased, so he gave the princess a few words, and then the little princess went with the girls, didn't expect to be by the pool, and fell into it for some reason."

In the late autumn climate, one can imagine the consequences of falling into the icy pool water.

"Is the Princess better now?" Yuzhu was a little anxious, "Can I go in and have a look?"

He said with a smile, "The Princess was scorching hot two days ago, but today is better. I ate some white porridge in the morning, and I have been sleeping until now without opening my eyes. The maidservant is about to go in and ask the princess to take medicine. The princess thinks the medicine is bitter, so I don’t want to eat it." If you are willing to drink well, it would be great if the county lord can go in with you." Their county lord listened to the words of the little county lord the most.

Yuzhu nodded, followed Hanxiao and entered the room quickly, only to find that all the maids and women in the courtyard had changed. She glanced at Hanxiao, and whispered with a smile, "The prince has changed everyone." She still remembers that the prince was full Standing in the courtyard with a frosty face, the scene of the maidservant.

That day, the little princess fell into the water and was hurriedly sent back to Ningcui Courtyard. The guards took a post to invite the imperial physician in the palace. Shen Shizi happened to be working in the palace, so he came back with the imperial physician. Princess, he asked the imperial physician to stay inside, and came out to ask the maid who served the princess that day.

Knowing that the little princess was standing by the pond to feed the small fish, and the stones by the pond were loose and slipped in, Shen Xian stood tall and straight in the yard wearing a big cloak, looking at the maid who was kneeling on the ground, With a calm face, he said, "Since you can't even take good care of a little master, it's useless to keep you, come here, drag them all down and kill them all."

There were 18 people on duty that day, except for Hanxiao and the princess's wet nurse, all of them were executed in front of a new batch of maids and wives, bleeding all over the place. The servant girl who came here was so frightened that her face had no blood in her face. She has been working hard on duty for the past two days.Even Hanxiao and the nanny will be punished, the two of them serve the princess personally, and when the princess takes care of her body, each of them will be fined ten boards.

Yuzhu thought it was because Shizi felt that the maids were not taking care of them properly, so they were sold out for another batch.

Entering the room, bypassing the huanghuali-carved Chilong green stone screen, I saw Shen Mei lying on the string-carved canopy bed, covered with a thick satin brocade quilt, her black hair was loose, and only a pale little face was exposed. There wasn't even a trace of blood on her face or lips, Yuzhu was so distressed, she walked over to hold her little hand, and called softly, "A Mei, I'm here to see you."

Shen Mei frowned, but didn't wake up.

With a smile, he put the decoction on the iron pear elephant-patterned case, and said softly, "Master, come here, slave."

Yuzhu backed away, stepped forward with a smile and called softly a few times, "Princess, it's time to get up and drink the medicine."

"Don't drink, don't drink..." Shen Mei muttered weakly.

"A Mei." Yu Zhu called out, "I've come to see you."

"Yuzhu?" Shen Mei finally opened her eyes, and saw Yuzhu standing at the end of the bed when she turned her head. She wanted to sit up happily, and helped her with a soft pillow to lean on with a smile. Shen Mei said with a white face and a smile , "Are you done with your family work?"

Yuzhu hummed, her voice choked with sobs, "It's over, can you drink the medicine quickly, okay? I brought you tangerines. It's sweet. You can wake up after drinking the medicine, and you can eat reeds when you're done." Citrus."

Shen Mei said obediently, "Okay."

With a smile, she hurriedly brought over the medicine bowl. The medicine was sweet and bitter. Shen Mei frowned and finished drinking it. Yuzhu squeezed a candied fruit from the white jade plate on the table and stuffed it into Shen Mei's mouth, "Quickly suppress the bitterness."

Shen Mei smiled happily, and said vaguely with candied fruit in her mouth, "Yuzhu, I miss you."

Yu Zhu sat on the bed and held Shen Mei's hand, "I miss A Mei too, you should get better soon."

Seeing that Hanxiao was still standing aside, Shen Mei waved her hand, "Go down first, I'll talk to Yuzhu."

Smiling and hesitating, he stood still.

Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm here, you go to the kitchen and get some light food, I'll eat it at noon later."

After leaving with a smile, Yu Zhu stretched out her chubby little hands to help Shen Mei tuck up the quilt, "You just lie down, and I will sit here with you."

"Yuzhu, how is your little aunt?"

The matter about Jiang Fangling must not be hidden. Wuguan County is full of uproar, and sooner or later it will spread to the capital. The little aunt still has a tough battle to fight, and Yuzhu hopes that she can survive this test.Yuzhu didn't hide the truth from the princess, and told the matter of Wuguan County all over the place, but didn't say much about the childbirth, "My little aunt has had a hard time, and I hope her life will get better in the future, but With her family protecting her, she must have a good life in the future."

Shen Mei was very angry when she heard that, "The Chen family really went too far. It was too cheap to just kick her feet back then. I asked my elder brother to remove the officials of the Chen family, so that they will never be able to turn over for the rest of their lives."

Yuzhu smiled and said, "Ah Mei, don't be upset. I asked Brother Xie Che, and he said that the official position of the Chen family has been dismissed. They will definitely have a hard time in the future." They don't have any livelihood, and they are people who can't bear hardships. The whole Wuguan County knows about the Chen family. It is afraid that no girl is willing to marry their family. This is just the beginning.

Shen Mei breathed a sigh of relief, "It's not too bad."

Seeing that her face turned red with anger, Yuzhu felt distressed, and asked her, "Why did you fall into the pond?"

"Speaking of this, I'm angry," Shen Mei said angrily, "The side of the pool is usually well-maintained, but for some reason that day, the stones on the side were a little loose, and it fell off when I stepped on it. went in."

This is really not a coincidence, Yuzhu comforted her, "It's all right, be careful in the future, and bless Ah Mei that everything will go smoothly and there will be no more disasters."

The two chatted for a while, and Yuzhu asked, "What about your elder brother, you need to thank him for the guards you borrowed from him a few days ago."

Shen Mei shook her head, "I don't know, but my dad is back, maybe he was looking for something."

Shen Guogong?The two brothers from the Shen family had never met this Duke since Yuzhu knew him. He heard that he had been guarding the Shemen Gate. The nearby mountains and valleys were steep and gloomy.

Because he guards the Sanmen Gate all the year round, the Duke seldom returns home, and Yuzhu has never seen him.

Shen Wei has been fighting for many years. He is tall, stern, and has a tough face. He wears a purple official uniform, a gold and jade belt, thirteen, and returns to the mansion wearing a big cloak. Afterwards, the officials and family members who had made friends with him were invited to the mansion for the banquet. Unexpectedly, something happened that day, and the second daughter fell into the pond and caught the cold. He went over to take a look, and saw Ruyu's daughter lying on the bed lifelessly. Also sad.

But in the next few days, I had something to go to the palace, and I didn't have any free time until today. When I got back to the house, I wanted to visit my daughter when Ji's maid came over and sent a message, "Master, Madam said that you have something to do, please come over."

"Okay, go over and tell Madam, I'll change my official uniform and go." As for the servants in the mansion calling a noble concubine Madam, he did allow him. He is often not at home these years. , This is the only respect he can give her.

As for the real wife of the princess in the mansion, she said that she was recuperating in Zhuangzi. He really hoped that it would be better to die of illness. Otherwise, how would he deal with his two children? What, but really cold-blooded.
