47. Good news

With Ruyue's deliberately raised "Mama Zheng", everyone in the room turned their eyes to the middle-aged woman who looked like a peasant woman who came in.

And Zheng looked at it, only to see a room of beautiful female dependents, almost shaken her eyes, as for which one was Chu Xue she had raised, she couldn't recognize it at a glance. Fortunately, Ruyue's shout helped, she followed the sound and saw the girl who shouted at her, and it only took a long time to recognize it, it was Ruyue.

"Moon, moon girl! You've grown up! Zheng hurriedly blessed everyone in the house, walked up to Ruyue in a few steps, took her hand and looked at it carefully, and sighed, "Look, it's only been a few years, and the little girl has grown into a big girl, the longer she grows, the better she looks!" ”

Ruyue forcibly suppressed the surprise in her heart, and only a smile appeared on her face.

After a moment's pause, Ruyue turned her head to Chu Xue and said, "Master, this is your nurse Mama Zheng, do you see if she has changed a lot, the slaves and maids are almost unrecognizable!" ”

When Chu Xue was still Yue Wen, she often went back to her uncle's house, and she also saw the Zheng family who was with her cousin, so she felt familiar just now, and now Ruyue mentioned it, she also remembered it. She got up slowly, made a surprised look and smiled: "It turned out to be Mama Zheng, after so many years, don't you come unharmed?" Do you remember me? ”

Seeing Ruyue turn her head to speak just now, Mama Zheng set her eyes on Chu Xue, when she entered the door, she felt that there was a room of beauties, and at this moment she realized that the one in front of her was the most beautiful. This beautiful woman carved in pink and jade is like walking down from a painting, and this face makes a figure flash in her mind, which seems to be the girl who married the Chu family in the past......

However, Zheng's mind was simple, and when she heard Ruyue say this, she believed that this was the Chu Xue she had raised.

"Miss? Is it really you? Zheng looked at the person in front of him in surprise, and couldn't believe that this beauty really grew up eating her milk.

"It's me," Chu Xue still smiled and nodded, "Mama has always been good?" ”

"Okay, okay." Zheng suddenly burst into tears, and she choked up: "Miss, at that time, you contracted smallpox, because the old body didn't take good care of it, and you blamed the old body for making you so bad." ”

Hearing this, Chu Xue instantly remembered her cousin who died early, her heart hurt like a pinprick, and her eyes were filled with tears, she said: "Mama, don't blame yourself, I'm well now, the doctor's medical skills are good, I haven't even pulled down the scars on my body, even Ruyue, I haven't been infected, and I'm fine now." ”

Ruyue had long thought of the little master who died at a young age, and her eyes were involuntarily wet. But she still remembered to round the field for Chu Xue, and hurriedly comforted Zheng's and said, "Don't worry, Mama, since the master gave birth to that smallpox, he has probably finished his illness, and then after the doctor's conditioning, his body is much better, and he has never had any illness again." ”

Zheng looked at Chu Xue again, and saw that she was indeed good-looking, so he nodded and smiled: "That's good, that's good, Miss, you're good, the old body is relieved." ”

Everyone saw that the three masters and servants were sad and happy, but they all sighed when they reunited after a long absence. But Xu Jinhe was extremely unhappy, she was obviously seven points sure that Chu Xue was replacing Li with a peach, but this Zheng family didn't distinguish it! She paused and asked, "It's really amazing to reunite after a long absence!" Mama Zheng, do you see Sister Xue's appearance now, has she changed a lot from when she was a child? ”

Zheng wiped his tears, looked at Chu Xue again, and then bowed down and said: "People say that women have changed eighteen times, and Miss is naturally becoming more and more beautiful. However, according to the old body, our young lady has not changed much, she is still so well-behaved and quiet. ”

Xu Jinhe couldn't get a satisfactory answer, and couldn't help but feel bored, so he didn't want to follow the old woman anymore, and only looked at Qiu Gui beside him. Qiu Gui immediately understood and reminded Zheng, "Mama Zheng, didn't you bring a greeting gift to Mrs. Xue?" Why haven't you submitted it yet? ”

Gift?

Chu Xue's heart tightened.

But when she saw Mama Zheng answer, she happily took out a few small pastries from the food box beside her, all of which were what her little cousin loved to eat in the past, and the thick fragrance of osmanthus wafted out, and she knew that it was osmanthus sweet cake.

Zheng smiled: "After so many years, I don't know if Miss's taste has changed?" The old body didn't have anything to do, so he made so many snacks, you used to love to eat these snacks made by the old body, can you try it? ”

Ruyue's eyes changed slightly, and she looked at Chu Xue, the most unpleasant thing for the master now is sweetness......

Ruyue was secretly pinching her fists here, but she saw Chu Xue smiling, pinching a piece of osmanthus sweet cake, and said: "Smell this smell and know that your craftsmanship has not changed, I haven't tasted it for many years, and I'm hungry." With that, he broke a piece and put it in his mouth.

The slightest sweetness was pervasive, and she suddenly felt nauseous, almost vomiting, but she forced the discomfort down, swallowed it with a smile, and said, "It's still the same taste as before, it's really good." After saying that, he picked up another piece and handed it to Xiao Song Ning on the side, "Ning Ning, this is my aunt's favorite dim sum in the past, do you want to try it?" ”

Song Ning had already been greedy, and when she saw Chu Xue taking the initiative to hand it to her, she immediately took it with a smile.

Chu Xue's reaction greatly surprised Xu Jinhe and others, she didn't expect Chu Xue to be so leaky, and she didn't let her find the slightest flaw. But she finally brought people in, and she didn't want to give up, but still wanted to try it further.

Xu Jinhe said with a smile: "Speaking of Ningning, I have a few good things here, I passed by Sanmizhai when I went back to my house today, and the candied fruit there was the best in the whole capital, so I brought a few things, thinking that I would bring some back to Ningning later, and everyone should come and try it!" So saying, he ordered the plates to be brought to him.

When Song Ning saw the objects on the plate, she immediately cheered, but Chu Xue's heart tightened, because she saw hawthorn fruits wrapped in rock sugar.

On the most delicate gold-threaded porcelain plate, there was a plate full of rock sugar hawthorn fruits.

This is the latest candied fruit pattern of Sanmizhai, sugar gourd is a snack suitable for all ages, but the dignitaries and nobles are suspected of eating indecently, Sanmizhai came out of this way of eating, although it is the same practice, but one by one disassembled, poked with a small silver fork to eat, it is much more elegant. Moreover, the pits of the hawthorn berries have long been replaced by walnut kernels, and then soaked in oily rock molasses juice, which is coveted.

The other ladies had already tasted it and praised it again and again, only Chu Xue had not raised her hand for a long time.

No one knows why she doesn't like sweetness, especially this rock sugar gourd.

Because that night many years ago, she was chewing rock sugar gourd back to Yingyue Manor, and when the mouth full of sweetness and sourness had not been swallowed, she had already lost all the relatives of the Yue family. When she heard the news of her father's death, when she heard her mother draw her sword and kill herself, when she smelled choking smoke and blood, her mouth was full of this sweet and sour taste. This abominable taste.

So whenever she rang that terrible night, she couldn't help but think of this smell, which was the most hated smell in her life.

She can swallow the osmanthus sweet cake, but she can't swallow the rock sugar hawthorn fruit.

Xu Jinhe noticed her abnormality, and she must have pretended to care in her heart, "Sister Xue, why don't you taste it, I heard Mama Zheng say, you used to love this kind of candied fruit the most, and I specially chose it for you." ”

Chu Xue knew that Xu Jinhe, including the Xu family, must have been suspicious, so she brought Mama Zheng to test her, they must have inquired with Mama Zheng about the little cousin's past, and started with the fact that she didn't like sweets......

She smiled and said to Xu Jinhe, "Princess Xie cares, so the concubine is better than obeying her fate." With that, he took a shiny hawthorn fruit and put it in his mouth.

She wanted to use perseverance to suppress her instinct again, as she had just done, and swallowed what she had in her mouth as if it were ordinary food, but when the sweet and sour taste hit again, she finally failed, and for a moment her heart was in great pain, and the choking smell of blood seemed to entangle her again, and her stomach twitched, and she vomited out the contents of her mouth.

Ruyue hurriedly supported her, and with her strange appearance, everyone present was shocked and looked at her in unison.

Xu Jinhe finally felt a little more comfortable in his heart, sure that he had found her flaws, and asked, "Sister, what's wrong?" Others don't like to eat it, why do you react so much? After that, he looked at Song Ning, "Ning Ning, tell my mother, is this candied fruit delicious?" ”

Song Ning didn't understand what was going on, so he only nodded blankly with a mouth full of fruit.

Chu Xue took a few breaths, she didn't think of what to say, but she heard Ruyue reply for her, "Back to the princess, our master has been not feeling well recently, he is very tired, and his appetite is not very good......

In fact, Chu Xue's menstrual affair was only three days late, Ruyue was a little suspicious, but she was not very sure, so she never told Chu Xue, and Chu Xue was also inexperienced, so naturally she didn't think much about it. But for now, I can only use this as an excuse to gamble.

Xu Jinhe was stunned and looked at her suspiciously.

When Li Jiaoyun heard this, she understood a little, and hurriedly asked, "How long has your master's letter been late?" ”

"It's been five days." Ruyue lied a little.

Chu Xue understood, and looked at Ruyue with some incredulity, but saw Ruyue with a smile in her eyes.

Li Jiaoyun hurriedly looked at Xu Jinhe, "Princess, Wantang Yuan is inexperienced, depending on the concubine's body, you should ask the house doctor to take a look at Sister Xue's body!" ”

Li Jiaoyun said this, Xu Jinhe knew that he couldn't shirk it, so he gritted his teeth secretly, but he also said with concern on his face: "What Sister Yun said is, come here, go and ask the house doctor." ”

I don't believe it will be so coincidental, and every time I ask her to drill!

After a while, the doctor came.

Coincidentally, since Concubine Jing knew that Chu Xue had taken the child-avoiding medicine, she naturally put the blame on Xu Jinhe, and she also knew that Liao Zhong was Xu Jinhe's person and could not be trusted, so she ordered Ji Yuan to find a trustworthy doctor to stay in Hengwang's mansion, just in case.

Today's arrival is the new doctor.

This house doctor is in his forties and is also an old doctor with superb medical skills, he carefully checked the pulse for Chu Xue for a while, and got up and said to Chu Xue, "Congratulations, madam, you are happy pulse." ”

The room was full of accidents.

Xu Jinhe didn't believe it. Although the brassica seed said that she did not stop her childbearing, but she took so many days of service, according to Liao Zhong, she has always been unable to conceive in the past two years, and it has only been less than a year of work, how is it possible?

She was suspicious, "Can you see clearly?" ”

The house doctor nodded, "Lady Snow is still young, so the pulse is not very obvious, but the old slave can be sure that Lady Snow is happy." ”

Hearing the words of the house doctor again, Chu Xue was stunned. It took her a while to understand what the doctor meant.

She has a bun in the oven?

She has a baby in her belly?

Seeing that Chu Xue was stunned, Li Jiaoyun smiled, and she instructed the maid beside her, "Didn't you hear the doctor's words clearly?" Mrs. Snow is happy, go and report the good news to the prince and receive the reward! ”

"Yes." The little maid nodded hurriedly and ran out of the door to the front yard.
