Before you know it, autumn is coming, and the weather is getting cooler.
Li Guan has been back to Kwai Garden for more than a month, and he has only sent people back twice during this period, once to send a letter of peace, and once to give Li Zhizhu's birthday gift.
On this day, Mrs. Li was trying to send some food to Li Guan, and the person who went to Kwai Yuan a while ago came back and said that Li Guan had a bad appetite and could only eat two meals a day, and she was not interested in the dim sum carefully made by Hui Niang.
This can make Mrs. Li anxious, how can a sick person have no appetite, and how can he nourish his body if he doesn't eat well?
She immediately instructed Yao's mother in the kitchen to make some appetizing pickles and snacks according to Li Guan's taste, and prepared to take advantage of the recent cool weather to send Kwai Yuan.
After a busy morning, I was almost ready.
Mother Ann was about to order someone to have lunch, and the maid came in and said that someone from Princess Chaoyang's mansion was coming.
Mrs. Li frowned: "What are the people from Princess Chaoyang's Mansion doing?" ā
After Li Guan and Yu Fengyao got a grudge, Mrs. Li had a faint dislike for Yu Fengyao, and since Li Guan fell seriously ill, this dislike has become an undisguised disgust, and even Dong Linzhi, who has a close relationship with Yu Fengyao, does not like it as much as before, plus after Li Guan fell ill, Dong Linzhi did not come to visit once, and did not even send someone to greet her, she was even more sure that the two of them were the same dog. She scolded herself in her heart more than once, and she thought that Dong Linzhi was a good person!
However, these two people have noble status, and they are not something that Li Fu can easily provoke, so even if she is not happy in her heart, she can only endure it.
Mother An saw her calm face and very unhappy look, knowing that she still had a grudge in her heart, so she said: "Since it is in the name of the princess's mansion, most of them are not Dong Sanye's people, they should be sent by the princess, it is better to call people in first and hear what is going on." ā
Mrs. Li also reacted that in the past, Dong Linzhi's people came directly to the Remnant Lotus Pavilion and would not find her here.
Her face was slightly pale, and she said, "Take people to the flower hall." ā
Although she was very reluctant, Mrs. Li quickly cleaned up and went to the flower hall with a smile on her face.
Two people came to the princess's mansion, a mother surnamed Zhang, and a thirteen or fourteen-year-old maid, and the two of them saluted Mrs. Li in a proper manner.
Mrs. Li glanced at the little girl's face, and a little surprise flashed across her face.
Isn't this the little guy who often follows Dong Linzhi to Li Mansion and is called Fence Shu!
She quietly changed her eyes with Mother An, it seems that there is something strange about today's events.
Mrs. Li smiled and asked the mother-in-law, "I don't know why the princess let her mother come?" ā
Mother Zhang's expression was polite and detached: "The princess heard that the eldest lady of your mansion is sick, and the special slave maid is going to take a trip to see how the young lady's illness is. Oh, by the way, the princess also asked the slave maid to bring something to the young lady. As he spoke, he handed over the box in his hand, "This is some of the specialties and gadgets that our second lady brought back from Yanqing. ā
The fence standing next to her listened to her words and skimmed Dong Linzhi clean, and couldn't help but stop talking.
Mrs. Li couldn't help but feel strange, how long has it been since Guan'er got sick, and now she is coming to visit her? And for no reason, why did Princess Chaoyang suddenly care about Guan'er?
She glanced at the fence, was it because of Dong Sanye?
She suppressed the doubts in her heart, instructed the maid to take the things, and said, "The little girl's illness has improved a lot, thank you for the princess's concern." Then he took the opportunity to ask about the second lady Dong's return to Yanqing and Princess Chaoyang's physical condition.
Zhang's mother answered them one by one.
As they spoke, the fence beside them was in trouble.
It was obviously something that the third master brought to Miss Li, but now it has become the princess's concern for Miss Li, obviously because the princess doesn't want the third master to have anything to do with Miss Li. But the princess said again that the letter was going to Miss Li, what should he do so that he could give the letter to Miss Li without letting the rest of the Li Mansion know?
At this moment, Zhang's mother said: "Before leaving, the princess specially instructed the slave maid to see the young lady and greet her, I don't know if it is inconvenient for the young lady to meet the guest now?" ā
Mother Zhang asked politely, but what she thought in her heart was that Li Wan was just a little concubine, how much honor it was to be favored by the princess? She was sure that Mrs. Li would not refuse the request.
And Liang Shu was also relieved when he heard this, it seems that Mother Zhang has been instructed by the princess, and she has already planned everything, so she doesn't need him to worry about it at all!
It's just that the letter from the third master to Miss Li was sent by the princess's people, and I don't know what Miss Li's reaction was......
The two of them each thought about their own thoughts, but Mrs. Li had already smiled and said, "It is really a blessing for our family to have such a princess to care!" However, Guan'er went to another hospital to recuperate more than a month ago, and my mother is afraid that she will not be able to see her this time! ā
"Miss went to another courtyard?" Zhang's mother was full of surprise.
Mrs. Li nodded with a smile and said, "The doctor said that Guan'er needs to recuperate, and the environment in the other courtyard is elegant, which is more suitable for recuperation than Fuzhong." ā
"That's ...... so"
This time Zhang's mother was in trouble, and the princess specially ordered that the letter must be handed over to Li Guan, but she didn't expect her to go to another courtyard, so this letter ......
But the fence was slightly relieved.
Although he didn't know why the princess obviously didn't like the third master and Miss Li, and she had to send this letter to Miss Li, his intuition told him that the princess must have a deep meaning in doing this, and it was very unfavorable to the third master and Miss Li. It's a good thing that Miss Li is not in the house now......
Here, Zhang's mother couldn't think of an idea for a while, and planned to go back to the princess's mansion first and tell the princess about it first.
She was about to say goodbye to Mrs. Li, when a maid came in and said, "Gu Gongzi has sent someone!" ā
Mrs. Li's eyes lit up, and the polite smile on her face became a little warmer, and she immediately said, "Please come in!" ā
Gu Gongzi?
Mother Zhang's eyes flashed, swallowed the words on her lips, motioned for her to step aside with her, and looked at the door curiously.
The maid came in with a boy dressed in a stone blue cloth, he was about the same age as the fence, medium height, fair skin, delicate face, and a rare restraint and composure in his gestures.
He respectfully saluted Mrs. Li: "Gao Yi has seen Mrs. ā
"No need to be polite." Mrs. Li smiled, "I was still wondering before, why didn't Cheng Yu come to teach Er to blow Xun today, I didn't expect you to come, is it because he can't come for a while?" ā
"Yes, Childe went to Baoding this morning, so let the villain run so that you don't worry."
"It's hard for him to think so well." Mrs. Li was obviously very satisfied with Gu Chengyu's attitude, and a smile overflowed from her eyes, "Why did he suddenly go to Baoding, is there something urgent?" Why didn't you go along? Next time, if he can't come, just point to someone and say it, you don't need to make a special trip! ā
It's just a subordinate, isn't Mrs. Li's attitude too kind?
Zhang's mother couldn't help but glance at Gao Yi.
ps: Xiao Wan'er is sick and has to take care of herself, so the author won't let her appear in the last few chapters......
