Chapter 336: News
After taking care of the matter, Liu Ruoxi said a few more words to Lloyd's, and then got up and returned to Yunshuiju. In the upper house, Mrs. Liu was sitting on the couch. She held the little pig in her arms, and teased the little pig with a rattle in one hand, and talked to the little pig while teasing like this. The little pig also giggled and babbled, and it was very happy to talk with each other.
Liu Ruoxi entered the house, and when she saw this scene at the door, she couldn't help but stand for a while, and then walked to the couch.
Mrs. Liu's second wife was happy to tease her grandson, or the little pig was clever, and when she saw Liu Ruoxi first, she opened her hand to pounce on Liu Ruoxi, wanting Liu Ruoxi to hug him.
Liu Ruoxi did not pick up the little pig, but continued to let Mrs. Liu hold the little piglet.
Although everyone lives in the same capital, and Mrs. Liu likes her grandson very much, she can't come to the palace to see her grandson as she likes. Liu Ruoxi understands the mind of Second Mrs. Liu, and wants her to be closer to Little Piggy.
Mrs. Liu was really reluctant to let go of the little pig.
"Mother, the little pig is very heavy now. You don't hold him with a sore hand? Let him lie down, and you tease him to talk. Liu Ruoxi also sat on the couch, and said to Mrs. Liu Er.
"No matter how heavy the energy is, I am not old, and I still hold the little pig." When Mrs. Liu said this, she asked Liu Ruoxi what happened to Chunhui Hall just now.
"What's going on?" Mrs. Liu asked.
"It's not a big deal." Liu Ruoxi shook her head, and briefly told Mrs. Liu about the matter. "Now the second sister-in-law is very suspicious, but I can't be idle when I'm tired."
"I just hope that the prince can get better soon." Second Mrs. Liu felt sorry for Liu Ruoxi, but she was helpless about this situation, so she could only say.
"That's what my mother said."
As she was talking, Mama Chang walked in quickly, saying that Liufu had sent someone to find Mrs. Liu.
"Let her come in and talk." Second Mrs. Liu instructed Mama Chang, and said to Liu Ruoxi with some puzzlement, "What can happen at home." I'm an idler again, and I've found it here. β
Liu Ruoxi was also a little strange, Second Mrs. Liu had never been in such a situation when she came to her.
After a while, Mama Chang led someone in, but it was a housekeeper and daughter-in-law of the Liu family, Liu Ruoxi looked a little familiar, like a face. And looking at the behavior of the daughter-in-law in charge, there doesn't seem to be any sign of panic, and it doesn't look like there is something big or urgent. Liu Ruoxi couldn't help but secretly wonder in her heart.
The daughter-in-law who was in charge came in. When I was busy, I saluted Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoxi.
"Get up and speak, what's the matter, who sent you to me?" Mrs. Liu asked the daughter-in-law in charge.
"Returning to the second wife," the daughter-in-law in charge was very humble, "it was the old lady who sent the slave and maid over, saying that she was suing the second wife." It's not a big deal, it's ...... The second aunt and grandmother in the house...... Nope. β
"Ah......" Mrs. Liu took the rattle hand and looked surprised. Her hand paused, and the little pig was a little unhappy. The little body threw himself on Mrs. Liu's arm, and stretched out her chubby little hand to grab the rattle.
Mrs. Liu quickly came back to her senses and continued to shake the rattle to tease her grandson, while exchanging glances with Liu Ruoxi.
At first glance, I heard that Liu Ruojuan was dead. Liu Ruoxi is not unsurprised. But this surprise quickly subsided.
At the end of the day, this is something that everyone has expected for a long time.
ββ¦β¦ When and how did the people disappear, the old lady sent you. But what do you have to say? Liu Ruoxi asked the daughter-in-law in charge.
"Back to the third aunt and grandmother," the daughter-in-law in charge replied hurriedly, "the letter I just received at the house." The person who delivered the letter over there said that the person had just gone, and he didn't dare to delay, so he immediately went to the house to report the news. β
"It is said that people are sick urgently, and I saw the illness in the middle of the night yesterday, and I invited the doctor to come, and the person is no longer good. The old lady sent the slave maid to sue the second wife. Knowing that there are many things in the palace now, the third aunt and grandmother can't finish their hearts every day. The old lady had nothing else to say. β
After the daughter-in-law in charge finished speaking, Liu Ruoxi nodded lightly.
Anyway, Liu Ruojuan is the girl of the Liu family after all, and the Liu family cannot ignore such a major event of life and death. As for sending someone to sue Mrs. Liu so soon, it was not an opportunity to send a message to himself.
In addition to passing the message, Mrs. Liu did not have any other instructions, that is, let Liu Ruoxi make her own decisions and do it at her discretion.
"Is there anyone in the family going over there?" Liu Ruoxi thought about it, and asked the daughter-in-law in charge.
"After getting the letter, the old lady sent the third master over with the eldest master." The housekeeper's daughter-in-law replied in a hurry.
"Auntie and grandmother, can the old lady send someone to deliver the letter?" Liu Ruoxi thought about it and asked again.
"Back to the third aunt and grandmother, there are also people from the eldest aunt and grandmother who are going to deliver the letter."
"Did the eldest lady get the letter too?" Second Mrs. Liu asked suddenly.
"Back to the second wife, the eldest wife also knew, and she cried twice ago." The daughter-in-law in charge stretched out two fingers and compared, looking at her demeanor, Mrs. Liu should be very sad.
Mrs. Liu couldn't help but sigh, and she slowly put down the rattle.
The little pig seemed to feel the change in Mrs. Liu's feelings, and with an oh oh scream in her mouth, a pair of steamed bun-like little fat hands touched Mrs. Liu's face.
ββ¦β¦ The little master is young, and he knows that he is distressed. Seeing that the wife is sad, this is to comfort the wife. When the daughter-in-law in charge saw it, she laughed and said.
Mrs. Liu Er held the gentle and soft body of her little grandson in her arms, and when she saw her little grandson like this, her heart was naturally very ironing. The mood that was a little gloomy because of hearing such news immediately became much clearer.
"Our little pigs are the smartest and most sensible children." Mrs. Liu took advantage of the situation and kissed the little pig'er's fat hand.
The little pig seemed to feel itchy, so he withdrew his hand in a hurry, and smiled only to see his teeth and eyes.
"I wanted to sit a little longer. I can't sit anymore, I'll have to go back and see. Second Mrs. Liu said to Liu Ruoxi.
Regarding Liu Ruojuan's death, Mrs. Liu only sent someone to report it. However, there must be many other things that are inconvenient for the attendants to speak. Therefore, Liu Ruoxi did not stop Mrs. Liu.
Liu Ruoxi took the little pig from the hands of Mrs. Liu.
"Mother, if I don't send someone back with you, if there is anything, I will come and tell sΓΉ I know immediately." Liu Ruoxi discussed with Mrs. Liu in a low voice.
Mrs. Liu thought for a moment. He shook his head.
"No need." Mrs. Liu lowered her voice slightly, "What can I do to disturb you?" If there is anything, your father and I, or let Wen'er come and sue you. β
"That's fine." When Liu Ruoji saw that Mrs. Liu said this, she nodded and agreed.
Liu Ruoxi had just sent Mrs. Liu back from the outing, and Mama Xing arrived at Yunshuiju. The old prince woke up from a nap, took medicine, felt in excellent spirits, and wanted to see the little pig.
"Wait a minute, Mama, I'll take you over."
Liu Ruoxi asked the nurse to change the little pig's clothes again. I also cleaned up a little, and then I hugged the little pig and went to Chunhui Hall surrounded by all the girls and mothers-in-law.
In the upper room of Chunhui Hall, the old prince and Su were sitting opposite each other on the couch. Su's body was completely leaning on the backrest, with a sad expression, and when he saw Liu Ruoxi and Little Piggy coming in, he only teased his eyelids, and there was no other expression. As soon as the old prince saw the little pig, his eyes immediately smiled.
The little pig is also familiar with Chunhui Hall these days, and the old prince loves him very much. When he saw the old prince, he greeted him first.
The old prince smiled even more heartily.
Liu Ruoxi took the little pig to salute the old prince and the Su family, and then asked the nurse to take the little pig over to the old prince.
The old prince hugged the little pig, and the grandparents and grandchildren immediately "chatted" affectionately. The little pig is still old/habitual, and after a while, he wants to grab the beard of the old prince. Although the old prince loves his grandson. But after all, the beard couldn't stand the catch, so he had to take something else to tease the little pig.
"Just ...... Have you/your mother been here? Su Shi picked up the teacup on the kang table and took a sip slowly, and then asked Liu Ruoxi. When he asked like this, Su Shi did not look up.
"Back to the mother. Yes. Liu Ruoxi immediately replied, "I was going to ask my mother to say goodbye, but my mother was not in good health." I ordered not to see the guests first, so I didn't dare to disturb the concubine for the time being. My mother asked me to say hello to my father and my mother, and when my mother was safe, I would talk to my mother. β
"Oh." Su Shi saw that what Liu Ruoxi said was not leaky, so there was nothing else to say.
"My father originally planned to come to visit my father, but there was something on the Zongxue side that couldn't get out of it. My father asked me to ask my father when it was convenient, and my father came to greet him. Liu Ruoxi said to the old prince again.
"Your father is too polite." The old prince hugged the little pig, raised his head and said to Liu Ruoxi, "I'm fine now, I just want to have a good talk with your father." Invite your father for me another day. β
"Yes."
"You/Mother are gone? Why didn't you stay for dinner? Su asked again.
Liu Ruoxi hesitated.
Her hesitation, the old prince and the Su family both saw it.
"But what's the matter?" The old prince asked first.
"That's right, the old lady sent someone to deliver a letter to my mother, the second sister of the family...... Nope. Regarding Liu Ruojuan's death, Liu Ruojuan didn't want to hide it. The Yongjing Mansion and the eldest princess are also relatives, and the palace will get news of such a thing soon.
The old prince and the Su family both showed surprised expressions on their faces.
"Why...... Gone? Su Shi said in surprise.
"You're so young, you're only a few years older than you, why didn't you?" The old prince asked.
"I said I had a sudden illness." Liu Ruoxi replied, "I have already sent someone over." It's something I didn't expect. β
"People have good and bad luck, this can't be said, don't be too sad." The old prince actually comforted Liu Ruoxi, "Although the family is busy, if you want to go over there, go as well." β
Liu Ruoxi hurriedly agreed.
The old prince no longer talked to Liu Ruoxi, but concentrated on playing with the little pig. On the kang table are some scrolls, as well as pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. The little pig looked at the novelty and reached out to catch it.
"This is terrible, if you want to grab a hand of ink, you will become a little ink man." The old prince hurriedly moved the inkstone farther away, but while he took a pen, carefully dipped it in ink and handed it to the little pig.
"This is a pen, should be held like this......" The old prince hugged the little pig, and taught the little pig how to hold the pen, and also held the little pig's hand to hold the pen, and wrote and drew on a piece of rice paper.
The first word that the old prince taught the little pig to write turned out to be the word "ι".
The little pig didn't know what the old prince was doing. I still thought I was taking him to play, so I was quite happy and giggled.
Liu Ruoxi could barely help holding her forehead on the side. The old prince looked at Sun Jackie Chan, but he was too anxious. Little pig, he's still too young......
Liu Ruoxi was slandering, but a little girl outside came in to report that the princess was here.
Not only Liu Ruoxi was surprised, but the old prince and the Su family were obviously also a little surprised.
The princess's health is still not good, because she has to go to the council every day, although it is not helpful for family affairs. But she really tossed herself and Rongjin. The princess was usually only in Rongyuan Hall, and rarely went to Chunhui Hall to see the old prince and the Su family. Because of the princess's body, the old prince and the Su family did not blame her for this. Since the princess began to take care of family affairs, except for the small council room, she has no energy to go elsewhere.
At this time, it is no wonder that everyone is surprised.
Not only Liu Ruoxi, but the old prince and the Su family also thought that the princess must have something important.
The Su family was busy and asked someone to invite the princess in.
The princess still sat in a sedan chair and arrived at the door. Then he took the little girl's shoulders and walked in slowly. followed the princess and concubine, and Rong Jin, who was held in the arms of the nurse.
When the princess entered the door, she was about to salute, and Su Shi hurriedly said goodbye. Let the princess sit down and speak.
"You're not in good health, and you have something to send someone to say, why did you come here by yourself? What did Jin'er eat, and it was good to rest. Did you cough again? "Compared with the two of them when they saw Liu Ruoxi and Little Piggy, Su's concern for the princess and Rongjin was beyond words.
"It's nothing, Jin'er misses her grandfather. Let his daughter-in-law bring him. The princess sat down on the chair and said weakly, while glancing at the nurse who was holding Rongjin.
The nurse walked to the old prince with Rong Jin in her arms.
Rong Jin's health has always been bad, and the princess has always looked at Rong Jin very tightly, the old prince loves Rong Jin very much, but the grandfather and grandson have very little time together. Every time Rong Jin came to the old prince, the old prince would call Rong Jin to him and hold him in his arms.
Now, the old prince is holding the little pig in his arms and holding the little pig's hand to write.
However, seeing Rong Jin in front of him, the old prince was still very happy, so he asked the nurse to carry Rong Jin to the couch and sit.
The nurse obeyed the order and put Rong Jin in front of the old prince, and the old prince did not let go of the little pig, but moved it back, so that Rong Jin'er could sit more comfortably against him.
"Come in, come and see your younger brother." The old prince lowered his head, with a look of kindness, and said to Rong Jin.
It's not the first time Rong Jin has seen the little pig, but it's the first time he's been so close to the little piglet. Looking at such a chubby and beautiful baby, Rong Jin's eyes were full of curiosity.
The little pig looked at Rong Jin, his big black eyes were also shining, and he was even more curious than Rong Jin.
"Child...... The younger brother ...... "Rongjin's little / face was pale, looking at the little pig, it seemed that he wanted to get close, but he didn't dare to get close."
"Xiao'er, this is your eldest brother." The old prince said to the little pig again.
Little Pig didn't have any worries, and Rongjin was a more novel thing for him. The little pig's little body pounced on Rong Jin, while stretching out both little hands to Rong Jin. The little pig was still holding a pen in one hand, and the old prince relaxed his hand a little after a moment of negligence. As a result, the little piggy's hand holding the pen broke free.
The little pig took the pen and stretched out to Rong Jin, after all, he was still young, he couldn't hold the pen at all, and the pen was taken by him and fell down. Coincidentally, two bits of ink splashed on Rong Jin's face.
Rong Jin's face was very pale, and the ink was particularly conspicuous on it.
Rong Jin was frightened, so he screamed, and at the same time looked very flustered, a pair of eyes looked around, and finally looked at the princess, as if asking for help.
This child, since he was born, has been watched closely by the princess. In her world, the status and influence of the princess are absolutely dominant.
Rong Jin shouted, and the princess heard it, and she was even more excited than Rong Jin. The princess screamed, Huo Ran stood up, and rushed towards Rong Jin.
The princess was weak, and she couldn't stand steadily after standing up, thanks to the girl next to her, who came up to support the princess.
"Jin'er, Jin'er, my Jin'er......" Concubine Shizi screamed, as if Rong Jin was not splashed with ink, but suffered some fatal tragedy.
Liu Ruoxi was also busy coming forward at this time, no weaker than the princess, Liu Ruoxi walked quickly to the bed.
"Hurry up and bring water,......" Liu Ruoxi commanded, while already taking out the handkerchief and gently wiping the ink off Rong Jin's face.
Rong Jin sat obediently and did not struggle. He tilted his face slightly and looked at Liu Ruoxi's eyes dark.
Liu Ruoxi couldn't help but feel a move in her heart.
"Don't touch my Jin'er......" Concubine Shizi almost shouted, she was only helped to her at this time, and at the same time stretched out her hand and pushed Liu Ruoxi.
The princess was weak, and then pushed hard, Liu Ruoxi still took two steps back.
"Jin'er ......" The princess threw herself to the side of the couch and hugged Rong Jin.
"I know, I know ......" hugged Rong Jin, and the princess raised her face. At this time, the princess's face was already red, her eyes were also red, and her eyes were still a little moist/moist, but the flashing light was sharp and full of accusations.
Being looked at like this by the princess, Liu Ruoxi couldn't help but be a little angry. If it was usual, she wouldn't mind at all, but this time it involved Piggy.
The princess glanced at Liu Ruoxi, then turned her head to look at the little pig, and raised a hand at the same time. (To be continued......)
