Chapter 36: Return to the Door
Zhong Su's love calmed down, and Ran Ning asked Bizhu to bring in food. Zhong Su's face was not good, so Ran Ning specially boiled porridge with wolfberries, which had no medicinal taste and was nourishing.
Ran Ning blew cold porridge and fed it to Zhong Su's mouth, Zhong Su didn't have the strength to eat, but just enjoyed Ran Ning's care, so he obeyed his wishes and asked Ran Ning to feed him.
"What do you want to eat at night? I'll do it for you. Ran Ning said. What made her a little puzzled was that Zhong Su was like this, her mother-in-law hadn't actually come to see it, and she really didn't know what she thought. At the beginning, listening to the meaning of the Li family, the Tan family was not bad at Zhong Su, how could it not appear until now? Is it because you don't want to see her?
"Don't bother." Zhong Su didn't want Ran Ning to be tired.
"It's not troublesome, I want to see you eat more." Ran Ning said with a smile. Zhong Su was unwell, so he naturally had to eat something that suited his appetite in order to increase his appetite.
"There's nothing special you want to eat." Zhong Su is not a picky eater.
Ran Ning thought for a while and said, "Is the beef noodle good?" The pasta is easy to digest, and the broth is boiled with some radish, which is strong and not greasy. Her grandfather liked this bite very much, and he had to eat it almost every five days, and Ran Ning often ate it with him.
Ran Ning's mention also aroused Zhong Su's appetite, so he nodded and said, "Okay." ”
After eating the porridge, Zhong Su moved in a little and let Ran Ning lie down beside him. Ran Ning didn't refuse, no one from her mother-in-law's side urged her to copy the house rules, I'm afraid she also knew the situation here, so Ran Ning took the opportunity to hide from it.
Lying beside Zhong Su, feeling his body temperature and smelling the special fragrance on his body, Ran Ning took the initiative to hold his hand and said, "The smell on your body is very special." ”
"This?" Zhong Su asked as he took the sachet that had been thrown aside by his master.
Ran Ning took the sachet and sniffed it, and nodded, "That's it." ”
Zhong Su hugged her and said, "The herbs in it have the effect of clearing the heart and calming the nerves, which are personally prepared by the master, which can reduce my impetuousness and try to restrain madness." ”
Ran Ning looked up at him and asked, "How did you go mad?" Can it be said? ”
"There's nothing I can't say to you." Zhong Su said slowly: "I started practicing martial arts at the age of four, and I have been carefully taught by my master. Master is a person in the rivers and lakes, and originally did not want to have anything to do with the people of the court, but the master saw that my skeleton was very suitable for practicing his unique mastery, and he didn't want this set of martial arts to be lost, so he accepted me. Started three years ago
"After that, my internal force began to be uncontrollable, and I entered a state of madness at any time. Except Master, no one can subdue me. Master has found countless ways to help me heal my wounds, but the effect is not very good, and now I can control myself from going out of the yard, but the others still can't, I still don't recognize people, and I don't know what I've done. I don't know until I wake up. Zhong Su said very calmly, although these affected his life, he didn't care, the reason why he minded so much this time was because Ran Ning was injured.
Ran Ning grabbed his hand harder, looked at Zhong Su and said, "Well, it'll be fine, don't worry." "Maybe Zhong Su can't get rid of this crazy state in her life, but she knows that Zhong Su is working hard, and as for the result, it is not something that can be controlled by man.
Zhong Su didn't speak, just kissed the top of her hair.
Ran Ning thought for a moment and asked, "Those rumors about the Broken Halberd Scholar are also because you were crazy at the time?" ”
"Yes." Zhong Su nodded, "Later, the emperor didn't let me go on the expedition, staying in the mansion, with the master here, it's basically fine." ”
"I will be with you in the future. I'll hide next time, but I'm sure that one day, even if you're crazy, I won't have to hide from you, and you won't hurt me. Ran Ning smiled.
"Well, I'll try." Zhong Su hugged Ran Ning hard, Ran Ning was not afraid of him, it was the best motivation for him to restrain the mad demon.
Ran Ning quietly let Zhong Su hold her, she always felt that the emperor seemed to be very fond of Zhong Su, at first she thought it was because of the virtuous concubine, but now it seems that Zhong Su should be saved by the devil and won the emperor's trust. If this is the case, whether it is Zhong Su or the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, as long as he does not make a big mistake, his position in the court should be very stable. However, the premise is that Zhong Su cannot be arrogant, obviously Zhong Su has done a good job at this point, so he has today's status.
In the evening, Ran Ning personally rolled out the noodles with the noodles, cooked them in boiling water, accompanied them with the beef soup that began to boil in the afternoon, cut the beef that had been cooked soft, scalded a small handful of green vegetables and a poached egg, there were meat and vegetarian, and a big bowl was hot, which made people have a great appetite.
After dinner, Zhong Su continued to rest in bed, and Ran Ning accompanied him. Zunchen had his own residence in the capital, so he didn't stay in the Hou Mansion, and after leaving the herbs, he left first.
Zhong Su took out a box of wound medicine from the box at the head of the bed, and said to Ran Ning, "I'll help you with the medicine." ”
Ran Ning nodded, lay on the pillow, and said, "Grandfather has sent a lot of wound medicine, all of which are good medicines." ”
"Hmm." Zhong Su dug out a little bit and carefully applied it to Ran Ning's injury, his movements were very light, for fear of hurting her, "This medicine has the effect of removing scars, once a day in the morning and once in the evening." ”
"Okay." Ran Ning looked at Zhong Su and said, "Go to bed early, your face is still not very good." ”
"It's okay, just rest for two days." Speaking of this, Zhong Su hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll go back tomorrow." ”
Ran Ning was stunned for a moment, and then thought that tomorrow would be the day to return to the door. Today, she has been worried about Zhong Su and forgot about returning to the door.
Without much hesitation, Ran Ning said, "Then go back." ”
"Your face ......" Zhong Su felt that if Ran Ning went back like this, he would definitely be thought to be having a bad time. He is not afraid of what others say, after all, he has heard more ugly words over the years, but he doesn't want Ran Ning to be wronged.
Ran Ning smiled and said, "It's okay, trust me." ”
Seeing that she didn't care at all, Zhong Su nodded and said, "Okay, I'll let Xiao Wu prepare a return salute." ”
"Well, you don't need to be particularly valuable, you can use it every day." It's not that the valuable things can't be sent, but Ran Ning feels that it's unnecessary, and in the end, it's just a squander of the cash.
Early the next morning, after the two asked Tan for peace, they went to Wanpingbo's Mansion. Tan didn't come to see Zhong Su yesterday, but when he greeted him in the morning, he also cared a little more, which made Ran Ning even more confused about their mother-son relationship.
The housekeeper was waiting at the door early in the morning, although Ran Ning had no backer in the Bofu, but Zhong Su was the future Marquis of Zhenbei, and he could not be offended. And earlier, Ran Xiao also came back with Shen Lian, Ran Ning returned to the door, she was supposed to come or not, and today she came back so actively, anyone with a discerning eye can see what she has in mind.
The carriage of the Hou Mansion in the north of the town came from far and near and stopped at the gate of Wanpingbo's Mansion.
Xiao Wu lifted the curtain and helped Bizhu out of the car first. Then the second door opened, Zhong Su got out of the car first, and then carefully helped Ran Ning get out of the car.
"Third aunt, third girl." The butler saluted both.
"Hmm." Ran Ning replied lightly. Looking up at Zhong Su, Zhong Su's complexion looks much better today, and it is estimated that he will be able to recover tomorrow.
"Uncle and husband......" As soon as the housekeeper raised his head, he saw the injury on Ran Ning's face, and what he wanted to say was stuck in half.
Ran Ning didn't feel sorry for him, nodded, and said, "Got it." He was helped by Bizhu into the Bofu.
Ran Ning wore a pink and purple butterfly opera hundred flowers and fairy dress today, curled up in a bun, and wore a set of golden butterfly peony heads, which complemented the embroidery on the clothes, not extravagant, but also very valuable, and there was no lack of shyness of a newlywed woman in the elegance. It's just that the wound on the face is too conspicuous, and it can't be covered with powder, so it can only be "swaggered" outside. However, an injury did not affect Ran Ning's beauty, it just made people feel a little abrupt.
"Greetings to my father, my father."
"Say hello to my father-in-law and mother-in-law."
After entering the main hall, the two knelt down on the mats prepared in advance and greeted their parents.
Originally, what Ran Ning was wearing on her body and on her head made Ran Xiao and Ran Ji, who were sitting on the side, envious, but after seeing the injury on Ran Ning's face, that envy disappeared, and all that was left was schadenfreude.
Yu naturally saw Ran Ning's injury, and asked without scruples: "Ning'er, what's wrong with your face?" ”
"I accidentally broke the vase and was scratched by the flying debris, so it didn't get in the way." Ran Ning smiled.
"Get up and sit down." Wan Pingbo interjected, looked at Zhong Su, who had no expression, and felt a little drumming in his heart.
Ran Ning's lie is not clever, but she doesn't care, whether others believe it or not, it's all in people's hearts, and it's enough for her to understand what is going on.
Shen Lianzi stared at Ran Ning's face, sure that she was not doing well, and was silently thinking - what about the wife? It's better to be a concubine for him.
"Why was it so careless?" Yu's tone was completely inaudible to blame, more of a secret mockery.
"Third sister, this girl's face is the most important, you have to be careful." Ran Ji immediately answered, covered her mouth and smiled: "What I know is that my sister was accidentally scratched, and I don't know that I thought I was beaten." ”
"The second sister is right." Ran Xiao also smiled and said: "No matter how luxuriously a woman dresses, when there is a wound on her face, she will always lose some weight." ”
Ran Ning smiled: "Sisters, I'm going to be careful in the future." If it was ordinary, I would just cover it with fat powder, but the medicine Zhong Su gave me couldn't touch these things, so I came like this. Zhong Su doesn't think that I have a wound on my face that looks bad, so why should I care too much about it? ”
Zhong Su sat on the side and didn't speak, but he listened to Ran Ning's words in his heart, and he also understood Ran Xiao and Ran Ji's attitude. Others may think that Ran Ning was beaten by him, as Ran Ji said, but Ran Ning did not refute it directly, but said that he was very good to her on the other hand, which is more convincing, if it is directly refuted, it will make people feel that it is a quibble.
The maids brought refreshments in a timely manner, which relieved the atmosphere of not being embarrassed or embarrassed in the main hall.
Yu asked Ran Ning and Zhong Su with a smile, "Do you want to stay overnight today?" ”
Zhong Su originally wanted to go back to "stay overnight", but was stopped by Ran Ning and said, "Mother, we won't stay overnight today." It is best for my wound to be less windy, in order to ensure that there is no scar, there is no wind today, it is already favored by God, so I want to take advantage of the wind today, if the wind starts tomorrow, I am afraid that it will not be good for the wound. ”
Ran Ning didn't discuss the matter of staying overnight, so Zhong Su was a little surprised to hear her say this. However, as far as his heart is concerned, he doesn't want to stay overnight, but if he doesn't stay in Wanpingbo's Mansion, I'm afraid he will think that he doesn't like Ran Ning.
After listening to this, Yu nodded and said, "Well, the most important thing is to take care of your injuries." ”
"Yes, we'll go back after dinner." Ran Ning said.
"Okay." Yu adjusted the smile on his face from time to time, allowing himself to show the most amiable smile. Today, because Ran Ning returned to the door, Wan Pingbo was afraid that it would not look good, so he let Ran Ning come out, but there could be no more trouble.
After that, Yu asked Ran Ning about her life after marriage, whether her in-laws were satisfied with her, and Ran Ning answered them one by one, with a natural attitude, and did not give them the slightest chance to pick up jokes.
After asking, Yu Shi went to the kitchen to see how lunch was doing, and Ran Ning took Zhong Su to his yard.
Ran Ji followed Yu to the kitchen, gently grabbed Yu's arm on the way, and said with a smile: "According to my daughter, Ran Ning's injury was beaten, but she has a good face, and it's not easy to say it to make people laugh." ”
"yes." Yu Shi smiled and said, "What's the use of being beautiful?" Or a life of suffering. If you come out, you will come out, and you can't become a phoenix when you fly on the branches. ”
"That's what Mother said." Ran Ji leaned on Yu's body affectionately, looking like a little daughter.
When they arrived at Ran Ning's yard, Ran Ning asked Bizhu and Xiao Wu to guard outside, and she took Zhong Su into the house.
Closing the door, Ran Ning also relaxed, Zhong Su hugged her from behind, and asked, "Your family must think that you are having a bad time, although it is indeed not good......
Ran Ning patted Zhong Su's hand and said, "You should be able to see that no one in the entire Bofu really cares about me, they just want to see my jokes, otherwise the eldest sister would not have brought Shen Lian back today, after all, we don't have a deep friendship in the past few days." In fact, there is a truth that I understand, and you should also understand - in the deep house, only if people think that you are not doing well, they will no longer think about you. ”
Zhong Su looked at Ran Ning with some surprise.
Ran Ning smiled: "If they knew that I was doing so well, they would definitely be jealous, and they didn't know how to arrange it for me outside." Now they think I'm not doing well, they just think it's funny, they want to continue to watch me live a hard life, and then they are infinitely satisfied with their current life and won't waste time on me anymore. And in order for me to continue to stay by your side and suffer, they will not talk about it to the public, lest I have an excuse to leave or win the sympathy of others after the word spreads. It's just that maybe in their hearts, your reputation will be a little worse. ”
"I don't mind." Zhong Su said. After listening to Ran Ning's explanation, he also understood Ran Ning's intentions and agreed with this approach.
"I don't mind what they think, whether you are Zhong Su or a scholar, you are my father-in-law." Ran Ning said with a smile: "You still don't know much about the affairs of a woman's family, after all, it is a matter of a deep house, and I will not let men know and participate, anyway, I will not let myself suffer, don't worry." ”
"Okay." As long as Ran Ning doesn't suffer, he can rest assured. There are some things he really doesn't understand, but he will support Ran Ning and be her strongest backing.
