Volume 1, Chapter 70: The Old Lady Falls Ill
Under the soft light, one large and one small are practicing calligraphy seriously.
Hua Bud walked lightly to the door of the study and asked Qiao Lan who was guarding the outer hall in a low voice: "Hasn't the girl finished practicing calligraphy yet?" "The supper I prepared was cold.
Yueyao had an order, when she practiced calligraphy or painting, she didn't ask anyone not to go in, and she was afraid that her thinking would be disturbed.
Qiaolan bitter gourd with a face: "No! "In the past, I usually came out after half an hour of practice, but today it hasn't come out for almost an hour, and I don't know how the girl can be so involved in practicing a word, and often even forget the hour.
Both of them were muttering in their hearts, and they heard Yueyao say, "Come in!" As Qiaolan thought, Yueyao forgot to practice calligraphy for so long that she came back to her senses and saw Tingzheng standing beside her watching her practice calligraphy.
Ting Zheng waited for Yueyao to put down the pen and said, "My sister's handwriting is so beautiful, sister, can I learn it?" Looking like one by one, Tingzheng also wants to learn.
Yue Yao shook her head: "You can practice the calligraphy I gave you first." "Greedy and chewy, it is impossible for Tingzheng to have so much time and energy to practice calligraphy like her. So, just learn the European body well.
Tingzheng was a little disappointed.
Flower Bud brought two bowls of egg and milk custard. Egg and milk soup is made by Yueyao's orders, Yueyao used to eat it often in Jiangnan, but she couldn't eat it when she came back, and now there is a small kitchen and she has ordered the kitchen again, and she does it every three or five times.
Reading > novel xstxt Ting was looking at the white, tender and tofu-like thing in the tangled blue and white porcelain bowl: "Sister, it's so beautiful." "There are a lot of supper patterns in the Li Mansion, but Ting Zheng thinks that it is still good for his own things, although he has not eaten it yet, he doesn't know the taste.
Yue Yao smiled and said, "If you like it, eat more." "In this era, ordinary people eat two meals a day, such as Lianjia, a family has three meals a day, but Yueyao now has four meals a day. In addition to three meals, you have to add supper every day, and the supper is all picked up and eaten.
Ting Zheng took a spoon, scooped a spoonful, put it in his mouth and slid it down: "Sister, it tastes so good." "Sweet, smooth and delicious.
Yueyao also likes this supper, so she eats more. Before Ting Zheng went to sleep, Yue Yao re-measured Ting Zheng's figure, planning to make another New Year's dress for Yue Yao.
Of course, Yueyao will definitely not do it from head to toe, she asked Xijuan and a few other maids to cut the fabric, and then she will embroider it again. Otherwise, it would take a lot of effort to make a single dress, and she wouldn't have so much time.
Brother Zheng only had two days off, and early in the morning of the third day, he took a carriage to Li's mansion. This time, he didn't politely ask Ting Zheng to bring things to the Li Mansion, but Ting Zheng showed off the clothes on his body to Li Han: "This is the clothes made by my sister herself." ”
Li Hancai didn't believe it: "How old is your sister to be able to make clothes?" Li Han didn't know what needlework was, so he felt that Yueyao was only eight years old and knew how to make clothes.
Li Han was just skeptical, but for Ting Zheng, this was a matter of slandering his sister, and he would never give up, so he quarreled with Li Han.
Mrs. Li was a little surprised when she heard that Ting Zheng was arguing with her youngest son: "Why did it make trouble?" "Ting Zheng has been in the Li Mansion for more than a month, well-behaved, diligent and studious, not only her, but also her husband and husband also like it.
The maid said the reason for the awkwardness.
Mrs. Li smiled: "The relationship between the two sisters and brothers is really good. She knew that her youngest son must have no intentions, but Ting Zheng had to dispel the discomfort in her heart if she was more serious.
At lunchtime, Mrs. Li pulled Ting Zheng to her side. Looking at the clothes worn by Ting Zheng, the length of the needle and thread is uneven, the needle lines overlap and are slightly convex, and the embroidery is also extremely fine. Mrs. Li couldn't help but ask, "Tingzheng, did your sister tell you that she embroidered this dress?" Just looking at this matter, Mrs. Li didn't believe that the embroiderers and needlework of the clothes were embroidered by Yueyao, so Mrs. Li couldn't help but ask.
Ting Zheng didn't hear the surprise: "My sister embroidered it herself, and my sister measured my size last night, and I was going to make another winter robe." ”
Mrs. Li was surprised, she really didn't believe it when it came to clothes. But since Yueyao herself said that she did it, then she really did it. Because there is no need for Yueyao to lie to Tingzheng for a piece of clothing.
Mrs. Li couldn't help but say after waiting for Ting Zheng to leave: "This kid is really good. "It's rare to do so well in needlework at such a young age.
The mother-in-law beside Mrs. Li said with a smile: "Madam, I heard that Lianfu invited an embroidery girl surnamed Ma, who was very famous in Jiangnan before. Even the three girls in the family are so smart, and they naturally learn quickly with famous teachers. ”
Mrs. Li smiled: "This not only has to have talent, but also has to have a heart." "If you have talent and no heart, you can do anything in vain.
The mother-in-law next to him said with a smile: "If you want me to say, you can see from the young master that the third girl of the Lian family must be a smart and studious person." "This mother-in-law knows that Ting is the one who was enlightened by Yueyao, and Tingzheng's diligence and studiousness in the Li Mansion is obvious to all, so it can naturally be inferred that Yueyao must also be a studious child.
Mrs. Li nodded.
Yueyao finished practicing the words and walked out to look at the sky, the sun came out today, and the weather was good, but the sun seemed to be covered with fog, emitting a faint light, and the gray clouds did not flow. The whole sky seemed dull and dull.
A gust of wind blew, except for the evergreen trees in the corners, which swayed left and right, and the towering trees could not shake bare because of the absence of leaves, which looked particularly bulky.
Yue Yao stayed in the courtyard for a quarter of an hour, and then went back to the room to practice calligraphy. After a while, Hao's mother hurriedly walked into the bedroom: "Girl, the old lady has fainted, and the eldest lady has sent someone to invite Dr. Tang." ”
Yueyao immediately put down the pen when she heard this, and went to the upper room without changing her clothes. Yueyao told herself as she walked that it would be fine, that it would be fine. In the previous life, my grandmother passed away next year, so I am sure that it will be okay now.
Although Yueyao has been comforting herself like this, she is still very panicked in her heart, maybe things will change, she can be reborn to a child, and her grandmother's affairs are uncertain.
When Yueyao rushed to the upper room, the old lady hadn't woken up yet, Yueyao entered the bedroom and saw the old lady in a coma, she knew that crying was taboo now, so she suppressed it and didn't cry, but the tears were fluttering.
Qiao Hui looked at the third girl who was crying incorrectly, and then looked at the sad eldest girl, the second girl, and the fourth girl with her head down, and couldn't help but think that the old lady loved the third girl so much.
Dr. Tang came over to take the old lady's pulse and immediately pricked the needle, and the old lady woke up after the needle. Yue Yao wiped her tears and said, "Grandmother ,......"
The old lady was weak and whispered: "Don't cry, grandmother is fine, she is old, her body is really bad, and she fainted when she is fine." ”
After Dr. Tang prescribed the medicine, he said, "Old lady, you must recuperate well in the future, and you can't work hard." "As I get older, I naturally have more and more problems.
Because the old lady was sick, Yueyao didn't even go to school, and waited by the old lady's side every day. In order to make the old lady feel comfortable, Yue Yao deliberately told the old lady the interesting stories she saw in the book, and occasionally recited Buddhist scriptures, in order to make the old lady happy.
Yueyao's behavior praised her filial piety in the mansion. And Yueyao is not a show, let alone fame, she wants to take good care of the old lady from the bottom of her heart and do her filial piety. But Yueyao's behavior robbed Yueying's job.
Yueying heard that the three girls were praising her filial piety inside and outside the mansion, and she didn't mention her, and she felt a little gloomy, she had not left the old lady for the past few days.
Cailan, the maid beside Yueying, said hatefully: "Why? The girl worked so hard, and the good name was all won by the three girls. ”
Cai Qing persuaded: "You just don't say a word." Cai Qing didn't want to add fuel to the fire, she thought that the third girl was not simple, and it was better for her own girl not to have a bad relationship with the girl.
Cai Lan snorted coldly: "Sister Cai Qing, you may not know yet, right? The three girls looked at charity on their faces, but in fact, they repeatedly sued in front of the old lady behind their backs. The third girl also has to call our girl sister, and she actually does such a dirty thing behind her back. ”
Cai Qing pressed Cai Lan's mouth: "What nonsense are you talking about?" If you wait for Mother Zheng to know, you won't tear your mouth apart? "To sow discord between the master, at least sell or kill on the spot.
Yueying's face turned cold: "What did you just say?" Again, what did the third girl sue her grandmother? She really didn't expect Yueyao to sue her for a small case.
Cai Lan opened her mouth, she really didn't know what bad things Yueyao said about Yueying. I can't arrange a few now. Cai Qing hurriedly said: "Girl, those mothers love to chew their tongues when they are fine, where can I worry about them." ”
Cai Lan hurriedly nodded: "Yes, yes, yes." It's all a few mothers chewing on the root of their tongues there, but in fact, there is no such thing. ”
Yueying's complexion did not improve.
Yueyao served by the old lady's side for five days, and the old lady touched Yueyao's head and said, "Look at you, what have you lost weight, you will start studying with my husband tomorrow, and my grandmother will be fine." ”
Seeing the old lady's resolute attitude, Yueyao didn't refute: "Okay." ”
Qiao Hui saw the old lady lying on the bed a little bored: "Old lady, it's a pity that the third girl is not a young master, otherwise the Lian family will definitely have a champion." Qiaohui could see that the third girl was sincere to the old lady, so she didn't hesitate to say good things about Yueyao.
The old lady was a little strange: "How do you say this?" ”
Qiao Hui smiled: "The old lady doesn't know, the third girl practiced calligraphy in the wing room while the old lady was sleeping, and it hasn't been broken for a day in the past few days, and I saw that the three girls' hands were calloused." When she doesn't practice calligraphy, the three girls don't leave the book. Old lady, do you say that if the third girl is a man, should she be admitted to the top prize? "It's the eldest young master, none of the three girls are so diligent, and learning can really be said to be a race against time.
The old lady sighed slightly: "It would be nice if Yueyao was a man." "Yueyao's talent and understanding are all first-class, and she is also diligent and studious, but she was born as a daughter, and God is really playing tricks on the Lian family.
Not long after Yueyao returned to the courtyard, the old lady sent Qiaohui over. Qiao Hui said: "Girl, the old lady said that the girl has been tired in the past few days, and she doesn't need to go over at night, and it is right to have a good rest." These were the words of the old lady.
Yue Yao nodded, the old lady's condition is stable now, as long as she recuperates, it won't be a big deal. This is actually because of the change of seasons, the old people can't stand it, and it's good to get through this hurdle.
Qiaohui not only came to spread the word, but also sent something. Yueyao and the others walked away and looked at the thing sent by her grandmother, which was a pair of beaded flowers.
The pearl flower is carefully wound into the shape of a flower with pearls that are round and jade, and the middle is dotted with small jade grains to show a little crystal green color, like a stamen. Yueyao liked it very much, and wore this pair of beads on the second day.
The old lady looked at it and smiled: "This beaded flower is so beautiful to wear." "Yueyao's skin is fair and moist, and it complements this pearl flower well.
Yue Yao said with a smile: "The things that grandmother gave are naturally the best. ”
Yueying heard that this pair of beads was given by her grandmother, and couldn't help biting her jaw at the moment. Yueying only complained that she had also taken care of the old lady for a long time but had nothing, completely forgetting that she had given her a lot of good things before the old lady.
The old lady has been sick for half a month. Yueyao does not go back to Lanxi Courtyard after morning class every day, but rests in the upper room, and accompanies the old lady to return to Lanxi Courtyard after dinner in the evening.
Yueyao had to practice calligraphy and paint when she went back at night; I get up in the morning to practice my skills, and my days are full and busy.
The old lady was seriously ill, and Mo didn't have any moths. Yue Bing is also a good baby, and even the house is extremely harmonious.
Yue Yao knew very well that the reason why Mo Shi didn't make any moves was waiting. Once something happens to the grandmother, Mohs will not hold it anymore. But she is not afraid, she must come.
