Eat more, drink medicine honestly, and the disease will get better quickly. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

For three days, she basically switched skillfully between analyzing her current situation and falling asleep, only three meals arrived on time to wake up and eat with the "gurgling" of her stomach.

She had learned her lesson and never accidentally shone her face on the bronze mirror again. In her deliberate neglect, she comfortably ate all her portion of meals and pastries. Those two maids are no longer greedy for any scum.

She's fat, and she's quite hard at the bottom of her body. The third day was basically fine.

On the fourth day, her eyes didn't open in the morning, her brain hadn't woken up, and her stomach rang like a timer. So she woke up immediately, opened her eyes, and then quickly turned over and sat up, and then she was stunned.

"Jen'er, you're awake. At first glance, a beautiful woman who looked about twenty-four or five years old, dressed dignified, but could not hide her flamboyant demeanor between her eyebrows, greeted her affectionately.

In the past three days, the two kitchen maids who delivered her meals on time, Jing'er and Cui'er followed behind the woman with a dinner plate with low eyebrows. Behind the woman, Jing'er and Cui'er were followed by two other maids.

Zhen'er? She was surprised, 'she' was actually called Zhen'er?

"Zhen'er?" the beautiful woman called out to her again, touching her forehead while she was stunned, "Well, it's really half better." ”

As soon as the woman raised her hand, the two maids behind her stepped forward and began to freshen and change her clothes without saying a word. Only then did she see that the two maids were holding very gorgeous new clothes in their hands.

The woman said to Zhen'er, "Since it is very good, your father and he will be home in a while, so you can go to the main gate to greet you together." ”

The woman looked at her expectantly, and here she seemed to say something.

"Daddy is home, great!" she didn't call the woman, looking at the woman's hypocritical and enthusiastic face, no matter how you look at it, she is not 'her' living mother.

The woman nodded without doubt, and sat down on the side.

The two dressing maids dressed her with their hands and feet. Cui'er and Jing'er had already set up her breakfast and decoction, and came over to help her to sit down at the round table.

She glanced at the woman, and then began to eat and drink the medicine with peace of mind.

Today is really hearty, a bowl of bird's nest porridge, a bowl of soup and medicine remain the same, but there are two more plums. After drinking the medicine, she threw the plum into her mouth, and the bitter taste quickly dissipated, which made her feel good.

Jing'er and Cui'er put away the dishes and retired after she finished eating.

Then the beautiful woman stood up and came to her side. She immediately stood up in understanding.

I'm going to the front gate to greet 'her' dad right away.

Strangely, she noticed that the two dressing maids were naturally at the end, so why did the woman seem to be intending to follow her half a step behind?

She doesn't know the way!

Looking at the woman and the two maids moving lightly, is it because she is too heroic?

She quickly slowed down. But she found that no matter how deliberately she slowed down, the woman and the maid behind her would always follow her unhurriedly, and would never step in front of her.

She was helplessly in a hurry, pretending to stumble, and then looked weakly and pleadingly at the woman.

"Jane, help Miss. The woman did not help her herself, but staggered and ducked with her hands and feet. Fortunately, she was faint, otherwise she would have fallen to the ground.

When the two maids heard the woman's order, they immediately came forward to support her. It seems that she is very well-trained, but just now they didn't come up to help her at the first time, and they are also 'hearty'.

At this moment, she fell behind the woman justifiably with the support of the two maids. She saw a smug smile on the woman's face the moment she overtook her.

It's weird, looking at the woman's swaggering back, it's clear that she enjoys walking in front of her. So why did you have to follow her before that?

With a stomach full of questions, she followed the woman to turn left and right with the support of the two maids, and it was really a long walk until she finally came to a hall. Along the way, at the beginning, it sounded good and secluded, but it was not good, especially compared with the rockery and flowing water pavilions and pavilions in the second half of the road, it was like a dilapidated yard. The second half of the road really opened her eyes, and she also realized that 'her' family is really not an ordinary rich family. That's a very rich family!

There were already quite a few people waiting in the hall.

"Erniang. ”

The woman turned sideways, revealing her. Under the woman's eyes, the men and women in the hall also called her respectfully.

"Miss. "Big sister. ”

The people who call her eldest lady seem to be elders, of course, they are all beautiful women who look roughly in their twenties, but they may actually be in their thirties, and it is not difficult to guess their identities.

The one who calls her eldest sister is naturally 'her' brother and sister. It is worth noting that there are two men and a woman who look to be sixteen, seventeen or eighteen years old, and their faces are the most reluctant when they call her eldest sister. She guessed they were older than her.

Without allowing her to think about it, a small servant ran in and reported, "The master's party has passed the east gate." ”

"Then let's go to the main gate and wait. The beautiful woman said, leading the people of the hall to the main entrance.

This hall was facing the main entrance, and she would not recognize the wrong way, so she did not pretend to be supported by the two maids.

She stood in the middle of the main entrance without knowing what to do, and when she saw that everyone had stopped, she didn't continue to walk. Only then did she realize that she was at the forefront again. That second lady should be the highest status among the ladies in this family, right? Why did you want her to be in front several times?

She wanted to step back and let the second lady stand in front. She also didn't know how to face 'her' dad for a while, so she wanted to hide behind the crowd. But everyone was crowded one by one, and there was no space for her to retreat to the rear. She reluctantly took a step back. The second lady actually took a step back with her. Then she had no way back.

The sound of horses' hooves gradually increased, and she looked up, "Good fellow!" There was a long procession, and countless horses' hooves were actually kicked neatly. The closer the team got, the more powerful the neat tapping sounded. The high horses were all fierce young men in military uniforms and leather shoes. No, the one who takes the lead is more steady. However, to say that he is middle-aged seems to describe him as old.

He looked no more than thirty, with a tall build, and the heavy armor didn't make him look bulky. In particular, his long legs straddle the sides of the horse's belly, exposed outside the armor, how to look slender and strong. With such a pair of beautiful legs, the overall body shape of this man must be the kind of person who looks thin in clothes and has muscles when undressed. Hot!

The leading horses had already reached the main entrance, and the procession had come to a halt in unison.

The long-legged man neatly rolled over and dismounted.

She could see his face.

The complexion is very healthy. Big eyes, double eyelids, high nose bridge, a pair of thin lips are very delicate, and a pair of thick eyebrows are just right to be heroic. It turns out that he is baby-faced. But his eyes reveal his true age. That kind of calm implied fierce eyes, which is not something that a stunned young man who has not been trained can imitate.

Corrected for age, he should be thirty-five years old.

The man came to a meter in front of her and stood still. She was startled, and the man was staring at her with burning eyes. But she quickly calmed down. Fortunately, the man's sharp eyes showed a touch of tenderness after meeting her.

"Daddy. Everyone around her didn't move, so she had to happily take a few steps to meet the man, and boldly grabbed one of the man's arms.

"Jane's good. The man smiled, only tugging at the corners of his mouth slightly, but it was already very good-looking. He patted her on the top of the head with genuine affection.

"Sir. Only then did Erniang greet her respectfully, but she only stopped two steps in front of the two.

"Yes. The man answered, took off his helmet and handed it to the woman.

"Sir. "Daddy. ”

The man led her straight to the door, and the crowd at the door called him and gave way to the two of them.

She saw the plaque above the main entrance, "General's Mansion".

When they entered the main entrance, Erniang followed closely with her helmet, and then everyone followed.

The group walked to another corridor at the end of the main hall. It didn't take long to arrive at a ...... It doesn't seem to be that exaggerated, but it looks like it's really that atmosphere.

The man glanced at her, and she obediently let go of the man's arm.

The man knelt forward on the futon, and Erniang immediately sent a bouquet of incense, and then retreated respectfully into the crowd. Everyone stood on both sides, and the old man knelt, and although they did not kneel with him, they all stared at the ground with their heads bowed. As soon as she learned it, she quickly retreated to the side. However, there was only one vacant seat, and she stood at the front of the junior's side.

Listening to the man's words, he was worshipping his father.

Then the man stood up, but it wasn't over, and everyone's heads were still down.

She felt as if the man was looking at her. Curiously raising her head slightly, she unexpectedly bumped into the man's sight.

Huh, it looks like the man asked her to come forward?

She hesitated.

"Jane. The man called out to her.

"Daddy. She had no choice but to come to the man's side.

Only then did she realize that Erniang had been waiting aside again at some point. As soon as she came to the man's side, Erniang handed her the fragrance in her hand. Then Erniang returned to the first place of the elders and looked down at the ground.

It's time for her to kneel this time?

She glanced at the tablet and immediately understood, kneeling respectfully on the futon.

"Wife, I'm back. The man's concise words were full of affection.

"Mother, Zhen'er will incense you. She bowed to the tablet. The man took the incense from her hand and inserted it into the censer himself.

She keenly sensed that her work was not over. After thinking about it, she kowtowed to the tablet. Just now, she lowered her head, and seemed to hear the sound of a man kowtowing.

It doesn't matter if she kowtows, she accidentally saw the second lady pulling her handkerchief tightly, with a look of envy, jealousy and hatred.

The man was silent for a long time, and she didn't dare to get up, but she still had the courage to peek at the man. I saw the man staring at the tablet table.

As the minutes ticked by, she felt her legs start to ache.

"Ahem!ahem!" was so close to the incense burner that she couldn't help coughing.

The man finally came to his senses, and the moment he looked at her, a moment of disgust flashed in the man's eyes. She happened to be peeking at him, stunned by the look in her eyes. But the disgust really only flashed for a moment, and the next moment the man had already come to help her up, and asked with concern, "Why are you coughing?"

"......" choked on incense. She would have liked to answer so honestly.

Unexpectedly, Erniang stepped forward and replied: "The eldest lady was infected with a slight wind chill before, but the concubine has been taking care of her for many days, and she is already fine. ”

The man frowned and asked her, "Caught in the cold?"

She nodded.

"Are you better?" the man asked again.

She nodded again.

The man was silent for a moment and said, "Jiao Niang, you can help Zhen'er go back to the room to rest first." ”

It turns out that Erniang's name is Jiao Niang. The old man personally ordered, and Erniang immediately supported her with one arm.

"I'm going to go to the palace and come back for dinner. With that, the man turned and left.
