Chapter 24: Liu Xiaozhen
In the past few days in Tonghetang, Lin Xiuyuan ordered the kitchen to prepare a recuperating meal every day and sent it over, and he himself came to visit Xuezhao whenever he was free, asked her about her physical condition, and sometimes told her some things that happened in the courtyard and lobby in front of him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Xuezhao can't go out these days, and it's interesting to listen to him, but if the guys in Tonghetang see the young owner sitting there seriously telling jokes, they are probably so shocked that their jaws are going to drop again.
Ren Shouchuan also came to check the pulse every day and prescribed medicine to give her, and Xue Zhao's body recovered quickly.
Early this morning, Xue Zhao saw that the sky was clear outside, and wanted to go outside for a walk. Min Po was beside her, and they walked slowly in the yard. The design of the Jiangnan garden is different from that of the north, and it is often not a sight to see the scenery of the garden at a glance, but is built according to the situation, with different heights and staggered results. Walking through a seemingly winding path, but at the end there is a cave, or suddenly entering an open area, people who are amazed by the design of the heart of the mountain.
Xue Zhao came out of the house, crossed a small patio, and walked along a corridor beside a forest of mountain caryophyllus, at the end of which suddenly a large pavilion appeared, built on the water's edge, and below the platform was an open pond. There is nothing in the pavilion, except for a row of chairs near the pond facing the lake. Xue Zhao walked to the pavilion, a gust of wind blew, Min Po said, "The wind is blowing, Miss, you stand a little, I'll go back and find your cloak." Xue Zhao nodded, and Min Po returned the same way. Xue Zhao sat on the pavilion chair and looked at the past, but saw the mountains and rivers in the garden, the water and stones reflect each other, the layout follows the shadow and the trend, eclectic, giving people a feeling that although there are people who make it, it is like the sky is open.
It was windy at the water's edge, so Xue Zhao looked to the other side of the pavilion and saw a round arch ajar. Xue Zhao stood up and walked over slowly, passed through the courtyard gate, and saw a huge courtyard, where a young woman in blue clothes was drying medicinal herbs, and there was no one around.
Xue Zhao didn't want to disturb her, turned around and was about to go back, but she heard the young woman behind her calling, "Miss Yu? ”
Xue Zhao was puzzled, turned her head to look over there, and saw the woman running towards her briskly, and when she came to her, she asked with concern, "Is Miss well?" ”
Xue Zhao nodded with a smile and asked, "Who is the girl?" ”
The young woman smiled, "Miss Strange Dao doesn't recognize me, the day the eldest young master ordered me to come and serve Miss, Miss was still unconscious, and then Miss woke up with a fever, and Mother-in-law Min was taking care of her!" ”
Xue Zhao was grateful in her heart, and thanked, "I'm tired of the girl." What do you call a girl? ”
The woman smiled and said, "Miss is too polite. My name is Liu Xiaozhen, and the housekeeper here is my father. I've been working in Tonghetang since I was a teenager, and sometimes I take care of the daily life of the eldest young master in it. Saying that, she looked at Xue Zhao's expression, saw Xue Zhao smiling, unfazed, and continued, "I saw that when the eldest young master brought the young lady back, I was so anxious that I went over to help, and the eldest young master also asked me to boil medicine for the young lady, and the eldest young master cared about the young lady very much." ”
Xue Zhao said with a smile, "The girl said with a smile. The kindness of the people of Tonghetang to Xue Zhao, Xue Zhao has all been remembered in their hearts. ”
Liu Xiaozhen smiled and said, "Don't worry about these little things, our eldest young master is very good to people." Just like me, since I came to Tonghetang, the eldest young master treats me like a sister. If there are good things on weekdays, let them bring them to me. Every time I got sick, it was the eldest young master who personally read the prescription before letting me take it, and let me rest more. Originally, there was only a room for my father to live in this courtyard at night, but after I came, the eldest young master asked people to vacate a room for me to live in. Once I was sick and fainted, and the eldest young master asked people to help me to lie in his room in the inner courtyard... Liu Xiaozhen's face turned slightly red as he spoke.
Xue Zhao listened to her quietly, and with the cold wind, she couldn't help coughing twice, and then Min Po's voice came from the courtyard inside, "Miss? Miss, where have you been? ”
Xue Zhao was about to respond to her, but saw Liu Xiaozhen gently wave her hand and said, "It's windy here, Miss, go back quickly." I'm going to dry the herbs, and if the lady needs anything, just tell me. Then he turned and left. Xue Zhao stood on the ground in a daze, and didn't find her until Min Po came back from a big circle, and quickly put the cloak on her. Seeing that she was stunned, she hurriedly asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”
Xue Zhao shook her head, held Min Po's arm and stood firm, and said, "It's nothing, Mother-in-law, I'm almost fine." Tomorrow, let's go back. ”
