Chapter 146: Crisis
machine
“…… If there is a major event in the family, it is not for the old lady to decide. It's just a trivial matter, and I don't want to bother the old lady. Seeing that Mrs. Liu's words were quite complaining, Liu Ruoxi hurriedly comforted.
Recently, when Mrs. Liu talks to people, she often has such a meaning, Liu Ruoxi naturally understands that this is mainly the matter of Liu Er's succession to Liu Yuwen, and it is also related to Liu Yujiang, so Mrs. Liu knows about it, and there is no intention to do it, so everyone tacitly hides it from Mrs. Liu. This is also a helpless thing, as far as Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu are concerned, if Old Lady Liu can be less partial, then they don't need to scruple too much and don't tell Old Lady Liu anything.
Of course, the main reason is really for the sake of Mrs. Liu's body. Older people can't withstand too many mood swings.
Mrs. Liu only said a few words casually, and after hearing Liu Ruojuan's persuasion, she didn't say anything anymore, but just asked Liu Ruojuan how she was.
“…… Seeing that most of them were flesh wounds, I heard from the eldest sister and the second sister that the doctor had come to see and said that the leg bones were injured a little, and they had to give birth to a good life, and they did not prevent trouble. Liu Ruojuan truthfully told Mrs. Liu what she knew about Liu Ruojuan's injuries.
"How can you fall like this when you care so much about your head and tail?" Mrs. Liu frowned, paused, and called the big girl Du Juan over, "You go and see, how is it, I'm so relieved." ”
Mrs. Liu only sent the big girl over to see Liu Ruojuan, but she didn't have the slightest intention of visiting in person. However, Mrs. Liu actually sent a cuckoo instead of a pomegranate that often goes to Mrs. Liu's side, which is also interesting.
Liu Ruoxi couldn't help but secretly glance at Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu was confused a lot of the time, probably out of partiality. After all, she is a person with age and experience, and there are many things that Mrs. Liu may not understand in her heart.
"You're both good boys." Old Lady Liu said suddenly. At first glance, it sounds like no beginning or end.
Liu Ruoxi and Liu Ruoshan secretly exchanged glances, and it was rare for Mrs. Liu to praise them like this. After sitting with Mrs. Liu for a while, Liu Ruoxi asked about peony.
"I don't know what happened to Sister Peony."
“…… After tossing all night, my body is weak, and I lie down in the back, so go and see. Mrs. Liu said, closing her eyes again.
Liu Ruoxi and Liu Ruoshan got busy, quietly came out of Mrs. Liu's house, and went to the back room to visit the peony. Then they went back to their rooms.
When Mrs. Liu saw Liu Ruojuan coming back, she asked her how Liu Ruojuan was doing. Liu Ruoxi naturally said the truth, many things that were not good to say in front of Mrs. Liu, but there was no need to hide them in front of Mrs. Liu.
"It fell hard, and it was really strange to watch. The second sister's expression is not quite right. Liu Ruoxi expressed her suspicions, "Moreover, I saw that the second sister had a slap mark on her face, she should have been beaten." ”
The eldest lady interrogated her, along with a few people who followed her to the Hou Mansion. I also tried it, and I heard that the family law was also moved. Second Mrs. Liu said, now, Mrs. Liu's movements. Someone also ran to tell Mrs. Liu, "The second girl fell, but no one saw it." ”
"Broken bones?! It's also pitiful. ”
"However, it shouldn't be as bad as Mama Chang's fall." Liu Ruoxi said.
"Oh. Since the doctor said that it can be taken care of and will not affect walking, this is okay. Otherwise. At a young age, this is also a rare thing. Mrs. Liu said. In a family like the Liu family, the girls are all pampered, hugging each other from front to back, gold and jade, and pricking their hands with needles, even if they are terrible injuries, it is indeed very rare to hurt Liu Ruojuan.
"I'm going to have to raise it for a while. In the next few months, I'm afraid I won't be able to come out and walk around. Liu Ruoxi said.
Second Mrs. Liu heard something and looked at Liu Ruoxi.
"You mean ......"
"I'm just guessing, after all, no one sees it, it's hard to say." Liu Ruoxi said.
"Big girl, she is indeed a person who can do such a thing." Mrs. Liu said, while pondering for a while, she instructed Liu Ruoxi, "From now on, you can be careful and stay away from her." There are no one around you all the time......"
If it was Liu Ruoyuan's hand on Liu Ruojuan, then the reason was quite obvious. Compared with Liu Ruojuan, Liu Ruojuan is a greater threat to Liu Ruoyuan, but Liu Ruojuan did not embarrass Liu Ruojuan, and she is not as easy to fall into the hands of Liu Ruoyuan as Liu Ruojuan. Second Mrs. Liu is worried that Liu Ruoyuan will be unfavorable to Liu Ruoyuan.
In the past, Mrs. Liu Er never refused to think in this direction, which can be regarded as a big improvement for Mrs. Liu.
"Well, mother, don't worry, I remember." Liu Ruoyuan nodded and agreed, without the second wife of Liu to say, she was also wary of Liu Ruoyuan in her heart.
In the evening, everyone went to Mrs. Liu's house to say goodbye. Mrs. Liu told Mrs. Liu about Liu Ruojuan's injury again.
"It's good to take medicine and raise it for a month, and it's fine. It's just that the old lady was worried again, so she specially sent the girl to see her and folded her blessings. The second girl has been flustered like this lately......" Mrs. Liu laughed.
"You let her take care of her, what to eat, what is not available in the house, go and buy it. The young girl's family, if there is any root disease, it will be ruined for the rest of her life. Our Liu family's girls have never had such a thing. Mrs. Liu said words of concern, but there was also a faint hint of reproach.
Liu Ruojuan herself is not promising, but Mrs. Liu has the responsibility of neglecting discipline and care.
Mrs. Liu naturally didn't dare to say anything else, so she only promised.
"Big girl?" Mrs. Liu asked again. Mrs. Liu came to ask for peace and did not bring Liu Ruoyuan with her.
“…… She was still grounded, and she didn't dare to come without the summons of the old lady. said that she knew that she was wrong, and she wanted to repent in the house, and she happened to take care of her second sister. Mrs. Liu said.
"Hmm." Mrs. Liu seemed to be quite satisfied with Mrs. Liu's answer, nodded, and stopped asking.
Coming back from Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu couldn't help but sigh with Liu Ruoxi.
"The old lady has been very normal for the second girl, and from now on, I am afraid that she will not wait to see the second girl." Liu Ruojuan fell like that, but Mrs. Liu only sent the girl to see it, which is different from Liu Yujiang's case, which shows Mrs. Liu's attitude towards Liu Ruojuan.
Mrs. Liu didn't want to see Liu Ruojuan, but her attitude towards Liu Ruoyuan showed signs of warming.
The two of them lowered their voices and talked for a long time, and a little girl outside reported that Aunt Jin was here. Mrs. Liu was busy letting Aunt Jin in.
Aunt Jin came in and said a few gossips, and talked about Liu Ruojuan's fall injury.
“…… The second girl sent the little girl and asked me for the ointment. Aunt Jin told Second Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoxi that Liu Ruojuan had just sent the little girl to find her and asked her to find an ointment to treat the scars on her face, that is, after Aunt Jin was scratched and her face was scratched, Master Liu spent a lot of money to beg someone to prepare the ointment for her, "Ask me if I have any ...... left."
Second Mrs. Liu exchanged a look with Liu Ruoxi.
Liu Ruojuan's face was broken, this was because she was afraid of leaving a scar, so she sent someone to find Aunt Jin. It's just that why does Liu Ruojuan need to find Aunt Jin to use the rest of the ointment, just because she is a girl from the Liu family, will Mrs. Liu still care about these silver coins and can't heal her if she doesn't do her best?
Liu Ruojuan is worried that Mrs. Liu will not do her best to heal her!
“…… There was still a little bit left, so I had to give it to the little girl to take it back. I am afraid that after a long time, the ointment will lose its effect. The second girl was also anxious, panicked, although the ointment was more expensive, it was not very easy for the second girl to use it. It's ridiculous that the little girl is not sensible, and she told me not to say it......"
Aunt Jin told the whole thing to Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoxi as if she was joking.
"When the second girl went out, I said a word in front of the eldest master. Now like this, I'm afraid I have something to do with it......"
"What can I do about my aunt, my aunt doesn't have to worry about it. Besides, no one knows. How the eldest uncle arranges is naturally the eldest uncle's own reason. Liu Ruoxi said. Looking at Aunt Jin's demeanor, I am afraid that in addition to the ointment, Liu Ruojuan also asked for something else, and Aunt Jin heard some things about Liu Ruojuan in the Hou Mansion, so she was embarrassed.
sent away Aunt Jin, and Second Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoxi were relatively speechless for a long time.
"It's very boring for this mother and daughter to do this." Mrs. Liu sighed.
The next day, Liu Ruoxi went to Liu Ruoshan's house, and the sisters did needlework and talked together, and after a long time, Liu Ruoxi said goodbye and came back. Walking into the courtyard gate, Liu Ruoxi could hear someone talking in the small study in the east wing. In the courtyard of Mrs. Liu's second wife, there are three wing rooms in the east and west. Now the west wing room is given to Liu Yuwen to live, and the three east wing rooms are small study rooms, which were originally the places where Liu Er's master collects books and usually reads and writes.
This small study is the most strict place in the courtyard of Mrs. Liu's second wife, and I think that there are many calligraphy, paintings, and antiques in it, many of which are rare and unique books. Second Master Liu is afraid that the girls will break it randomly, so he usually takes care of it himself, and the girls can't enter without being summoned, and the second master Liu never entertains guests in this small study.
"Is the master back?" Liu Ruoxi asked the girl who was waiting in the yard.
"Back girl, is the master back?"
Liu Ruoxi listened carefully, in the small study, in addition to the voice of the second master Liu, there was another person, although it sounded a little familiar, but it was not the second wife of Liu, nor Liu Yuwen.
Liu Ruoxi suddenly had a bad premonition.
"The lord also brought guests?"
"Yes, girl."
"Who is it?"
"Miss Hui, she is the new disciple of the master, the little prince of the Yongjing Palace."
"How could it be him!" Liu Ruoxi's willow eyebrows were upside down.
