Chapter 269: Tears on the pillow and rain before the steps
After this day, the world was turned upside down, not only my state of mind, but also the situation in the Xuzhi Pavilion.
Mama Lu's ability to turn her face faster than a book is vividly exerted, which makes people stunning.
I leaned against the coarse cloth bedding and said nothing. Cuinong accompanied her, tore a plain satin garment, and wrapped my wounds with strips of cloth.
Kou'er originally went to beg Mama Lu to ask the doctor to come and show me the injury on my forehead, but she was scolded back by her bloody head. At this time, he flattened his mouth and said aggrievedly: "That grandma is too much." When you open your mouth, you are foul language, and the maid is embarrassed to learn it from the young lady. β
Cui Nong knotted the plain white satin strip at the back of my head, turned her head and reminded her softly: "In that case, you should not tell the whole thing to the young lady." The young lady injured her head and needed to recuperate. β
Chloe wiped away her tears and nodded, "What you said is that I'm impulsive again." I'll go to the ear room to make some white porridge for Miss. Let's see if I can try to persuade her to use some later. You have to sort out our things and hide what should be hidden. In case the old goddess comes to search again as if she were half a loud one. β
Cui Nong's chin bowed: "I can save it, you can go." In the future, this japonica rice must be rare, you make less movement in the porridge, don't invite other people. β
Kou Er said angrily: "It's really hard for that old pious woman to run so fast, Your Highness walks on the front foot, and she dares to bully the young lady on the back foot." β
Cuinong sighed: "What kind of place are you in the Xuzhi Pavilion?" A few days ago, there was a warning from Xiao Dezi that shocked her, and Mama Na Lu was worried that the young lady would be taken back to the East Palace by His Royal Highness one day, so she restrained a lot. Now His Royal Highness is so angry with the young lady that everyone outside can hear the movement. Naturally, she wants to get us back even harder. Look, these days don't count, and the sadness is still to come. β
Kou Er said: "What's so sad, no matter what, we'll accompany the young lady to hold on." β
Cuinong said in a low voice: "That's the reason. I'm just worried about Miss's body. β
Chloe glanced at my snow-white face, stomped her feet and said, "I'm going to make porridge!" and turned around and walked out the door.
The creak of the door closing woke me from my distraction. "What time is it?"
Cui Nong stopped arranging my black hair and replied, "It's the beginning of the unitary period." β
I slowly turned my head to look at the only window in the room, and outside the small sash was the sun that was fading and the sun was sinking in the west.
After a long time, I withdrew my gaze and looked at Cui Nong's faceβthe injury from Wu Shanghua's palm mouth had only improved. And Kou'er, who was busy cooking porridge for me in the ear room, had the same wounds on her face and the bruises had not faded, but she was newly injured by Mama Lu.
A wave of guilt welled up in my heart, and I said softly: "Now, I have no pity for myself, but I can no longer burden you." β
My breath was weak, Cui Nong didn't hear it clearly for a while, and asked, "What did Miss say?"
I shook my head and was silent. The hand resting on the outside of the futon, the slender white fingers fisted.
These days, the encounter from the clouds to the mud, others may not understand, but I know very well that it is just the result of my own benevolence. Therefore, the situation in the Xuzhi Pavilion is very calm, if it is not for the heartache of Shengyao, it can be said that the heart is like water.
However, I have to prevent those who can't help but come to the door to bully me, and bring these two handmaidens who are dedicated to me.
I called out to Trinon and whispered in her ear for a moment. The body was weak in the end, and after giving the instructions, she fell on the futon in sweat again.
Cuinong helped me lie down and wiped my sweat with a silk. Fang Zi went to arrange and did not mention it.
Seven or eight days passed like water. Mama Lu would come to our house every morning and ask us to sweep the entire Xuzhi Pavilion.
Kou Er was not angry and asked her, "The Xuzhi Pavilion is so big, and we are not the only ones here, why do we clean all the places?"
Without saying a word, Mama Lu pushed her to the ground, and scolded: "You little cheap hoof, it seems that I beat you lightly before, and I dare to talk back to the old lady! The old lady asked you to sweep you, so you have to listen, and asked why! Didn't your master say that he wanted to be taken back by the prince, why didn't he go back! Since he can't go back and take root in the Xuzhi Pavilion, he has to be soft! He has to be practiced by the old lady! This is how he can understand what kind of lowly status he is now! I still think that I am the concubine of the East Palace. β
I grabbed Chloe, shook my head at her, reached out and took the broomstick path and began to sweep the floor.
Mama Lu walked away in a huff, and was busy trying to learn from others.
Rao is shared with Cui Nong and Ko'er, but it can't resist the vast area of Xuzhi Pavilion and the many abandoned palaces. By the time Mama Lu thought we had finished cleaning, it was almost time. All three of them were exhausted, and their hands and feet were blistered with blood.
It rained all night that night.
I listened to the sound of the rain hitting the steps, but my heart uncontrollably remembered the scene of living with Sheng Yao in the willow forest of the Manhe River in the spring of last year - between the verdant willow leaves fluttering, and sharing an umbrella under the gentle wind and drizzle. His attentiveness and doting seemed to be still in front of me, and the warmth of his deep kiss seemed to remain in the corners of my lips......
I suddenly bit my lip hard and cried quietly.
Outside, the rain was falling more rapidly.
The pain on the forehead is getting worse and worse, but the most painful thing is not the physical injury, but a heart that has been torn repeatedly by the past and reality.
I just kept my eyes open until dawn.
The rain was heavier.
originally thought that with such a heavy rainstorm, Mama Lu would not come to find trouble, but who knew that she was as punctual as usual. As soon as Chloe opened the door, she pushed her into the house and shouted, "Still sleeping! Get up and clean. β
Cuinong touched my hot forehead and tucked the futon for me. He took out a golden hairpin and went to the outhouse. I was dazed and heard her whispering softly to Mama Lu: "With such a heavy rain today, please be accommodating." When the weather is fine, we will definitely sprinkle and sweep. What's more, the rain was so heavy that the ground had been washed away very cleanly. β
Mama Lu's smiling voice raised a few points in the direction of the inner room: "Not only the two of you are going to go, but the one inside, don't leave here to pretend to be the master, do you want the old lady to come and invite you personally? What's wrong with the rain, it's just right to sweep away the filth when it rains! Hurry up and go to work! If it's half a o'clock in the evening, the old lady guarantees that you will look good!"
Then there was a clang of the door, and Mama Lu's footsteps went far away.
Cinon and Chloe went into the back room at a loss.
I smiled faintly, but I was a little stiffened by Mama Lu, and got out of bed with my clothes lifted. I got up a little harder, and suddenly there was a rush of Venus in front of me.
Cui Nong said sadly: "The maid is incompetent, and she failed to ask Mama Lu to agree to be accommodating." β
Chloe said, "It's not because of you, it's because this old pious woman is too hateful." If you take the gold, you will still be as cruel as you torture people!"
A sneer appeared on the corner of my mouth: "Naturally, it's not because of us. Mama Lu behaved like this, and there were so many waste concubines in the Xuzhi Pavilion, but they were only aimed at us recently. Of course, there were others who instigated it. β
