Chapter Seventy-Five: Herbal Medicine
He also got angry and said, "It's not that you can't tolerate such small things as me, and I have to be a thief if I accept a woman." I said angrily, "You swore to your mother back then, have you forgotten?" He sneered: "Am I the only one who has sworn an oath?" I was angry with him and shed tears: "If I say no, I can't!" I won't let her in! ”
He took a deep breath, his tone was gentle, and he said softly: "She really has nowhere to go, she is an orphan, she used to follow Mr. Mu, and now Mr. Mu is gone, if you don't let her enter the door, I can't ignore her, raise her outside, and be known, after all, it is the face of our Guogong Mansion, and your face is not good-looking." ”
I understand who he's talking about, Mu Yanfei. The fox that Qingqing said. "This kind of person who pretends to be very tall is the real fox." Qingqing's words were still in my ears, my heart was sour, and tears couldn't stop falling. Qingqing was right, Mu Yanfei just started to hang up Du Lingjun, and seeing that Du Lingjun was no longer good, he began to seduce Zhou Sinian again. She didn't care who picked her up, as long as someone picked her up.
Zhou Sinian saw me crying so sadly, and he didn't know what to do, and said: "She is just a singer, and when she enters the door, she is just a concubine and a slave. ”
Listening to Zhou Sinian's meaning, he must let Mu Yan fly in the door, seeing him so resolute, I was very uneasy, and my heart was even more bitter, and I asked sadly: "You are in such a hurry to take her into the door, is she pregnant?" Saying this, my heart hurt anymore, I trembled all over, and I couldn't help choking.
Zhou Sinian hurriedly said: "No, there really isn't." I didn't go to her much, except to see her occasionally. I didn't want to take her into the house, but because she was Mr. Mu's goddaughter, it was not safe to put her outside. After a while, he whispered again, "Raise your hand, and she will have a place, please." ”
Seeing that what he said was so pitiful, I almost agreed, but my heart still hurt, and I couldn't breathe normally because of the pain: "When she enters the house, she will slowly have children with you, and you will slowly like her, no, I don't want this." My heart was sour, tears welled up with snot and I hurriedly wiped them with a handkerchief. I think my current appearance must be ugly, I must not be as beautiful as Mu Yanfei, Zhou Sinian must prefer her pitiful and well-behaved appearance.
Zhou Sinian patted me on the back helplessly, and then said unwillingly: "What do you mean, as long as she never has children, you will agree to her entering the house, right?" I hatefully said, "Yes! Unless you can guarantee that she will never have children. "I thought he couldn't do it and wouldn't do it. Who knows what Zhou Sinian said: "What's so difficult about this, now there is a medicine in the brothel, and if you drink it, you won't have children." ”
He said this lightly, and I was once again frightened by his cruelty. I forgot to cry for a while, and asked blankly, "Would you really do this?" Does Mu Yanfei agree? He said: "I will not force her to enter the house, naturally I will say in advance, if she does not agree, I will give her some money and let her leave on her own." When he said this, I was relieved, how could a woman agree to his request, and naturally Mu Yanfei would not enter the mansion.
Who knows, a few days later, Zhou Sinian told me that Mu Yanfei had agreed to my request, and drank the cold medicine, and waited to enter the house to kowtow to me and offer tea. I listened to him in a daze, I didn't expect that anyone would really be so cruel to me. I muttered, "What is she trying to do?" Just to enter the mansion to be your concubine? Zhou Sinian said, "How do I know what she wants," and asked, "Can I let her enter the house now?" I nodded in a panic.
The next day, when the weather was nice, I got up and freshened up, and although I was lying down, I still liked to sit in front of the mirror and look at myself carefully. After combing his hair, he pulled a very loose bun at the back of his head and pinned it with a hairpin of mutton fat jade. The warm mutton fat hosta is my favorite jewelry. I used to like jade bracelets before, but after what happened to Qingqing, I didn't wear the bracelet again.
Wearing a light pink long gauze skirt and a jade-colored gauze shirt, I smiled at myself, my cheeks showed a slight pear vortex, and I smeared rouge on my slightly pale face and lips, slightly powdered, and looked carefully in the mirror, feeling that the whole outfit looked young, beautiful and dignified, and the clothes did not show a deliberate dress, so I walked to the garden with a dry girl. I also chose the location, and I didn't want her to come into my house.
Zhou Sinian was already waiting in the garden, saw me coming over, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I've seen you so beautiful." I said sourly: "Yes, they are all yellow-faced women, and I can't keep my husband." Zhou Sinian said softly seriously: "Between you and me, it has nothing to do with skin. My heart warmed and I said, "Let someone call her?" He nodded. Someone went to pass it on.
As soon as we sat down, we saw Mu Yanfei coming, gentle and lovely. A purple dress swayed gently with his steps, melon seed face, willow eyebrows, and the corners of Danfeng's eyes were gently raised, but they did not look demonic. She bowed slowly, made a big salute, served tea, and from then on she entered the Zhou Mansion.
"You go down first," Zhou Sinian said to her, "Madame is pregnant, so she can't be tired." Since you have entered the Zhou Mansion, you must abide by the rules of the Zhou Mansion, the wives and concubines are different, and the dignity and humility are orderly. If you feel wronged, you can go down to the court and beg to go, I won't be difficult for you. ”
I smiled and said, "Brother Nian, don't scare her, where do I have so many rules." Beckoning her to come over, she came over, sat a little cramped on the low table next to me, and said, "Miss Yanfei, it's not the first time we've met, we met in Princess Chaofeng's Mansion last year, remember?" She whispered, "The concubine doesn't remember this." ”
I smiled and said, "Also, Miss Yanfei has been to so many places, and my aunt's house is only one of them, how can she remember it?" Does Miss Yan Fei still often go to see Princess Chaofeng now? ”
Princess Chaofeng was the only one who escaped when the Wei and Du families were purged, and as the emperor's sister, she was secretly picked up in advance. Since then, he has been closed in the princess's mansion. If you don't see outsiders, it's impossible to receive people like Mu Yanfei.
Therefore, Zhou Sinian asked: "Princess Chaofeng's Mansion?" Where have you seen it? Didn't Princess Chaofeng see outsiders? I said, "It was last year when there was a plague, and my cousin was recuperating in the princess's mansion. ”
Mu Yanfei's face turned pale and said, "The concubine really doesn't remember these things. I smiled and said, "Yes, the wealth has been scattered with the wind, who can remember the illustrious Du Xiaohou Ye back then?" That is, he is self-inflicted, thinking that there is truth in the hook column. ”
