Chapter 834: Enlightenment
Tu Manfen said: "It's not just the Queen Mother. My cousin's appearance is even more worrying than the two years I was asleep. ”
Xu Wanzhen touched her face, a little incredulous, "Is it really that bad?"
Mr. Ning took her hand and said, "Come, you come with me." ”
Pressed her down in front of the dressing table and sat down, without Mr. Ning's words, Xu Wanzhen also knew that her current state was worrying.
The cheeks, which were as smooth as jade in the past, now looked pale and lacked blood. His eyes were blank, his chin was pointed, and there were green tendons popping out of the back of his hands.
The clothes hung loosely on his shoulders, and the whole person was shrouded in melancholy. Beauty is beautiful, which makes people feel pitiful, but they lose their spirit.
If it's someone else, it's still terrifyingly beautiful. But this kind of Xu Wanzhen, as long as she is familiar with her, can see that something is wrong at a glance.
In the past, although her figure was not plump, she was slender and graceful. Her expression is calm, her eyes are clear, and there is a reassuring power in her.
And these are almost gone.
Mr. Ning pressed her shoulder, personally unwrapped her bun, and said gently: "I can see that you have something on your mind." But if you don't say it, I won't ask, your task now is to raise yourself. ”
"Not for you, but also for those who love you, let go of your worries for the time being. The second son is still fighting on the front line, if he knows that you feel sorry for yourself like this, can he rest assured?"
"If he has a chance because of this, will you regret it again?"
Her voice was not loud, word by word, but like a sharp sword, it dispelled the last lingering fog in Xu Wan's heart.
When I think of the epiphany when I just ate noodles, yes, instead of regretting and feeling guilty, I should try my best to make the current situation better. Even if you can't do anything, at least you are worthy of it.
Xu Wanzhen nodded heavily, and her expression returned to her eyes again, and said, "It's really bad, which makes you worried." ”
Tu Manfen let out a long breath, these days she sees Xu Wan's real malaise, but there is nothing she can do. I can only talk to her, and I am secretly anxious in my heart.
It was still Mr. Ning who was amazing, and she looked at Mr. Ning with a little more admiration.
"Tomorrow, I'll ask someone in the sewing room to cut you a dress that fits in two. "The clothes on Xu Wanzhen's body are temporary ready-to-wear, and the texture may be good, but it really doesn't fit.
In Beijing, a woman of Xu Wanzhen's status wears appropriate clothes and accessories that match her status, which is the most basic etiquette requirement.
Otherwise, you can see at a glance that something is wrong with her. Secretly, I don't know how many gossip will be aroused.
"No need. Xu Wanzhen shook her head slowly and said, "Please ask Aunt Nan to go to the business tomorrow and find Brother to get two bodies." If it's inappropriate, I'll fix it. ”
Knowing that Empress Dowager Xiao was sick, Xu Wan was really anxious and wanted to get into the palace as soon as possible.
It will take at least a few days to let the sewing room in Mr. Ning's house tailor, and there is a possibility that the news will leak. To this day, she is not willing to take any risks.
She knew from Fengqi that in order to avoid her grandmother's worry, Wen Mulan handed him over to Xu Wenmin after rescuing Xu Wenyu.
In other words, Xu Wenmin knows the ins and outs of the matter and is the most reliable candidate.
Still in October, Xu Wanzhen memorized a few clothes in Jinxiu, and it was just right to change the size at this time.
Mr. Ning nodded in response, "Tomorrow, I'll ask Baicaowei to send nourishing medicinal food over there to give you a good recuperation." And relax, everything has me. ”
Her eyes were quiet and soft, which made Xu Wan really feel a lot more relieved.
This time is the most vulnerable time since she arrived in Gaomang. If her identity is leaked out, it will cause countless gossip, and she will no longer be able to live in this era in the name of Xu Wanzhen.
In the past, she arranged everything and was confident. For now, she can only put her trust in Mr. Ning's hands and obey her arrangement.
At this time, she thought happily that she was fortunate to have Mr. Ning to rely on.
There is a ground dragon burning in the room, and a few crab claw chrysanthemums grown in the greenhouse are raised with clean water on the desk. The large yellow and white chrysanthemums, quietly exuding a fragrance, linger in the house, and there is a sense of tranquility.
This was deliberately arranged for her in advance by Mr. Ning knowing that Tu Manfen was coming back.
After smelling a few sips of the fragrance, Xu Wanzhen felt that she was much lighter. "I've figured it out, don't worry. ”
Mr. Ning looked at her eyes, laughed, pressed his palms on her shoulders, and immediately withdrew, "Okay!"
"Sir, are you hungry? Tu Manfen proposed.
Mr. Ning nodded, she came here first without even changing her clothes, and she was really hungry at this time.
She is already in charge of herb-flavored pastries, and she knows how to maintain health. The dishes prepared by the chef are very delicate and delicious, and have a unique flavor.
After eating a meal, Xu Wanzhen felt as if she had come back to life and stretched her body and mind. Between the eyebrows, although there is still a slight sorrow, it is no longer a sad look.
"These days, you and Manfen are squeezing together. Mr. Ning said with a smile.
After she has taken care of her body and entered the palace to see the Empress Dowager Xiao, she will be able to come out of the palace and return to the Zhongguo Mansion in a bright light.
In just a few days, it is best not to grow branches.
Xu Wan really understood what she meant, and nodded in response. During her time as a hostage in the Northland, she suffered a lot. Compared to this, it is now like being in heaven, where is there anything not satisfied?
The night was getting late, and the subordinates cleaned up the original warm pavilion in the courtyard as Xu Wanzhen's temporary residence.
An arhat bed was placed in the warm pavilion, and Zhiyan had already laid a complete set of autumn-colored folded branches and begonia pattern bedding on it, and smoked benzoin in advance, making the room quiet.
Seeing her come in, Zhiyan stepped forward and said, "Young lady, the hot water has been prepared, and the maid is waiting for you to bathe." ”
She did things in a very orderly manner, and she was not in a hurry when she came to this strange environment, and did these things silently. She didn't know her well, and it wasn't easy to do that.
Just say a hot water ready for bathing. In this warm pavilion, there must have been no bath tub in the first place. Besides, where is the kitchen, and which rough women are responsible for carrying water?
There is more than one of the same trifles. Although it doesn't seem to be difficult, everything needs her to solve the problem. Zhiyan was able to complete these things quietly, and didn't let Xu Wanzhen worry about it, which is really competent.
Xu Wanzhen looked at it in her eyes and nodded secretly.
She soaked in the steaming tub, and Zhiyan took the shampoo and put it in the palm of her hand and applied it evenly for her. Then use her fingers as a comb, combing her long hair one by one.
After this catastrophe, Xu Wan really lost a lot of weight. The only thing that hasn't changed is that this long satin-like hair is still so black and shiny.
Zhiyan's technique was gentle, and after combing her long hair, she massaged her head. Kneading from Baihui acupoints to both sides, her technique is not much better than Bai Yao's.
This made Xu Wanzhen have a thought in her heart.
