As a medical concubine

Chapter 240: The Old Mrs. Ran Who Finally Raised Her Parents (2)
Unexpectedly, after Hua Zhu finished washing, she first ate two big bowls of rice, and then quietly practiced calligraphy for a while, except for her complexion, she seemed to be no different from usual.

It's not easy for anyone to put this matter on. I promised to come to propose marriage but let the pigeons go on the last day. I don't know which slave has a bad mouth and made this matter known to the whole family, saying "Second Miss" Shamelessly hooked up with the admiral of the navy, and didn't piss to look in the mirror. She has the backing of the emperor, what kind of woman do you want to marry? Would you fancy a concubine from the servant's mansion?" He also said, "She is more than just hooking up with Liao Son, last year she was able to go to Langya to take care of my aunt because she climbed into my uncle's bed..." In short, all kinds of ugly, disgusting, and beatings!She had just gone to the dining room to pick up her lunch, and listening to everyone talking about these unsavory things, she wished she could fight them.

It's better for the second young lady to stay behind closed doors, so as not to feel bad after listening to it.

"What are they talking about behind my back?" Huazhu turned a page of the book and asked casually.

Qiao'er's heart skipped a beat, and she said with a sneering smile: "I didn't say anything, don't think too much. The sun is too bad today, so I won't go out for a stroll in the garden. I'll get an embroidery basket and let's embroider flowers together." .”

Turning around, eyes wet with grievance.The admiral is really too much, if you don't marry the lady, don't provoke the lady in the first place, it's fine if you do, I would like to waste time when you love me, and no one will stand in the way when the man and woman are married.But why did you take the lady's hand to the door?Let so many masters and so many slaves see that the young lady is his, but he retreats, leaving the young lady to bear all the infamy...

Men, as expected, are heartless!

All afternoon, Huazhu stayed quietly in the room, embroidered flowers for a while, read a book for a while, and took a nap for half an hour when she was a little tired.

If they didn't know the inside story, no one in the room would be able to see that she was broken in love. Occasionally they would think that maybe the second lady didn't like the admiral as much as they thought, but she was still young. good family.

But sometimes there are some things that some people want to avoid, but they can't avoid it.

When dinner was approaching, Mother Zhao, who was next to Aunt Mei, came.

Anyway, she is a decent mother, Qiaoer poured her a cup of tea.

Zhao's mother didn't even look at it, so she smiled proudly: "This servant is rushing to help Miss San make a wedding dress, so I won't drink tea."

Qiao'er's face changed, and she coldly withdrew her hand.

Zhao's mother blessed Huazhu and said triumphantly: "It's like this second lady, Madam said that your marriage has been delayed anyway, so let's give up the jewelry and brocade I bought for you to the third lady first, the Gu family and the third lady Your wedding is approaching, so I'm afraid you won't be able to pick one if you rush to buy it. When the second miss gets engaged again, the madam will buy it for you again."

It's just that you don't need such precious things anyway, so why bother standing in the latrine and not shitting?Hurry up and donate it to the future Mrs. Gu's Patriarch!

Qiaoer turned pale with anger and trembled all over: "Second Master Gu and Miss San just gave one gift to accept the lottery, and there are five more gifts after that. Why is the wedding date approaching? The third lady wants jewelry and brocade, let Aunt Mei go Buy it for me! Don’t talk about the big lady! If you have the ability, call Fang’s mother here!”

The corners of Zhao's mother's mouth twitched, and her eyes flickered slightly: "Miss Qiaoer, why bother to be angry with me? I am a slave, and I dare to go to Shanghai Tang Courtyard only when the master orders me. If the second miss really can't bear to let go, I will report the truth to the elder sister. Madam, please ask her to buy a new set for Miss San."

"No need, I don't need it anyway, give it to my third sister." After Huazhu said blankly, she put down her book, went to the inner room, and brought out two boxes of dowry and four top-quality brocades, "Three If my sister thinks it’s not enough, there is something else in this room that you like, just pick it.”

Zhao's mother didn't expect Hua Zhu to be so talkative. She had prepared a lot of nagging excuses to fight with each other, but she hadn't appeared on the stage yet, and the scene was over... she felt powerless.Zhao's mother raised her eyebrows and looked at the enamel green pear flower vase on Duobaoge, the six-eared gold and jade cup, and the translucent goblet with luminous brush, revealing a hint of greed: "Miss San's dowry is missing something. A few good things, when the third miss becomes the master's grandmother, how many yellow and white things does the second miss want, right?"

Qiao'er really can't listen anymore, what does this old lady Yu think of the second lady?Could it be that the third lady has become the master's grandmother, and the second lady sticks to the door like a dog's skin plaster to ask for benefits?

Hua Zhu waved her hand lightly, the blood jade on her bright wrist was like a monster, faintly flickering with a heart-warming light: "Take it, mother just bought it, it's new."

"Second Miss!" Qiao'er was anxious.

Mother Zhao rolled her eyes and showed a contemptuous smile: "The servant thanked the second lady on behalf of the third lady." After finishing speaking, she asked someone to bring in the box, and put the enamel green pear flower vase, the six-eared gold and jade cup, and half a cup. The transparent luminous goblet, dowry and brocade were all moved back to Nian Lizhu's yard.At the end, he thought of the blood jade bracelet that Huazhu showed when he raised his hand, that was the real treasure!

Qiao'er was so anxious that she hid in the earphones and cried, Xiuyun walked in tiptoe, patted her on the shoulder and said: "Second Miss's heart is dead, and she no longer enjoys seeing these things. Give it out, but it will save you from being hurt. .”

What Xiuyun didn't say was that the third young lady who was the least favored became the hottest figure in the mansion overnight, while the much-loved and respected second young lady fell into the mud from the clouds.

At night, the carriage from the palace arrives at Nianfu, and Hua Zhu is invited into the palace to administer needles for Princess Changle.

Even the imperial physician pronounced that there was nothing they could do, and the people in Nianfu didn't believe that Hua Zhu could perform any miracles, so they all watched her leave with cold eyes.

From the Nianfu to the imperial palace, under normal circumstances, one needs to pass through the Emperor’s Mansion. Hua Zhu thought about it, and said to the old eunuch: “Please trouble me, please go to Changhe Street. Last time I heard that there will be a new pharmacy there. Do you want to choose some medicinal materials from his family?"

The old eunuch didn't doubt it, he tightened the reins, turned around and turned into Changhe Street.

Just happened to pass by a pair of rushing convoys.

The old eunuch looked back, there was a carriage from the palace, and the direction was towards the emperor's mansion. At this point, the emperor had already gone down to court. Could it be that the emperor called again urgently?

Huazhu also heard the sound of panicked hooves, and she knew it was coming from near the Emperor's Mansion. She covered her ears and forced herself not to hear or think about it.
