Chapter 030: Heart Fire
Qin Shuang and Cai Lan entered the door with their front and back feet, and Ying'er listened to their intentions and sent a message to the house: "Qin Shuang and Cai Lan have something to tell the princess." After listening to them, Ah Xiu raised his head from the pile of account books and asked, "Have you seen it with the doctor?" ”
The two nodded in unison, and Ah Xiu thought for a while and said, "Seeing that it's the end of the year, and the house is busy, I won't go to see it in person." Go back and tell your master, since you have a body, take care of it, and don't use it to ask for peace. ”
The two agreed, and Ah Xiu instructed again: "You follow Ying'er to the account room, and each of you will receive ten taels of silver to use it first, and if there is anything short of it, come and sue me diligently." If the master is well, he will have your reward. ”
Since she had finished the order, she still buried her head in checking the account books, so Ying'er led the two out. When they went, Yan'er brought tea and put on a coat for Ah Xiu: "I am pregnant in the month of Layue, and the melons will ripen in August of the next year." In this way, the princess will be able to give birth in peace for a few months. ”
Ah Xiu shook his head and smiled bitterly, and Su Xin said aside: "I'm afraid that if I have a child, it will be more fierce!" The two had a feud because of the winter kite, and now they are like black-eyed chickens, waiting to give birth to a son and a half daughter, for the sake of the future future, I don't know how far to go. ”
"That's exactly what I'm worried about," Ah Xiu put down the account book, "People's hearts are unpredictable, the two of them are not very old, and they are not restrained enough, if they give birth to a daughter, I'm afraid it's okay, but I'm afraid that if both of them give birth to a boy, I'm afraid that there will be no peace in this house." ”
"No matter how angry they are with their bellies, can they still cross the princess after giving birth to a boy? I don't believe it. The first prince couldn't tolerate them to be presumptuous. Yan'er said angrily. Su Xin nodded: "This is also true, the prince is different from others to the princess, and he is not distracted." ”
Hearing them say this, Ah Xiu was silent, took a sip of tea from the cup, and frowned: "Why is this tea so bitter?" Yan'er was puzzled: "Madame, I'm afraid that I tasted it wrong for a while, this is Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoots, how can it be bitter?" ”
Ah Xiu looked at it suspiciously, and smelled it again, this decent aroma and orange brown color are indeed Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoots, taste it carefully, and still feel bitter, frowning and putting it down, and continuing to look at the accounts without thinking about it. Su Xin was suspicious when he saw this, and took a bite of it, which was fragrant and sweet, not only did it not become mildew, but it was as delicious as if it was newly picked and newly made.
"Madame-" Su Xin put down the teacup and opened her mouth carefully, "Are you feeling unwell?" Do you want to find a doctor to check the pulse? Ah Xiu saw her put down the teacup and asked herself if she wanted to diagnose the pulse, and her heart moved: "You tasted this tea?" ”
Seeing Su Xin nodding, Ah Xiu asked again: "Isn't it bitter?" Su Xin nodded again. Ah Xiu was stunned, his sense of taste was abnormal? Seeing that they were abnormal, Yan'er also took a bite and said quickly, "Is Madam sick?" This tea is so sweet! ”
After speaking, Yan'er covered her mouth and stepped aside. Su Xin frowned: "Do you want to invite Mr. Dai to come over and have a look?" The two ladies on the left and right also have bodies, so it's good to take a pulse of peace together. ”
Ah Xiu smiled faintly: "It's okay, I'm afraid that I have made a mistake today, and it is normal for my mouth to be bitter." How can you be shocked like this? Am I so useless? Seeing Su Xin's face embarrassed, Ah Xiu had no choice but to say: "Since you are so anxious, go and bother Mr. Dai to take the pulse of peace." ”
Su Xin saw that Ah Xiu responded, and was slightly relieved for a while, and turned back to give Yan'er a look. Yan'er nodded knowingly and went out to call someone to ask for a doctor, took out the candied fruit jar here, took a few dates with silver chopsticks and put them in a shallow dish with flowers and silver, and brought them in.
"This is the date I soaked in the nectar of the jujube, the princess feels that the tea is bitter, take this sweet mouth and press the mouth." Ah Xiu smiled and nodded, picked one up with his hand and put it in his mouth, chewed it twice, and then frowned and spit on the handkerchief.
Su Xin was anxious when she saw it: "Is this also bitter?" Ah Xiu forced a smile: "How can you be in a hurry like this?" Am I not here in a good way? But the fire is rising, and when the gentleman comes, you can just beg him to prescribe me a lot of medicine! Rest assured, you might as well do it. ”
After speaking, he suppressed his feelings and pretended to continue to read the accounts, but his heart turned upside down: it is indeed a taste disorder, is this a nervous disorder or is he terminally ill? Doesn't it mean that there are more than ten years to live?!
No matter how uncomfortable I felt in my heart, I also pressed it, but my eyes and the tip of my nose were red, Ah Xiu was afraid that Su Xin would see it, so she pulled the account book to her knees and buried her head to check it, and her hands only turned it over, but her mind was not on the account, and she didn't read half a point in her mind.
Seeing her like this, Su Xin only said in her heart that Ah Xiu didn't know where her body was weak, and she wanted to persuade but was afraid that she would persuade too much, so she had to quietly retreat and light up the ice dragon spirit that calmed the nerves.
After a short time, Mr. Dai Si entered the mansion and came in with his apprentice to say goodbye. Ah Xiu forced his composure, got up and smiled: "I'm tired of Mr. Running like this again!" Is it cold outside? Turning his face and instructing someone to move a chair for Dai Si to pour tea, Ah Xiu smiled again: "It's almost the end of the year, how is the gentleman's things prepared this year?" ”
"The tired princess remembers, this year thanks to the blessing of the prince, the family's land harvest is very good." Dai Si replied respectfully, and Xie En sat down and said, "The princess has a bad complexion, is she feeling hot?" Let the contemptible people give the princess a pulse of peace first. ”
Ah Xiu nodded and raised his hand, put it on the pulse pillow that Dai Si took out, Su Xin on the side was just about to put a veil on Ah Xiu's wrist, Ah Xiu stopped with his other hand: "Mr. is my benefactor, there is no need to hold these courtesies." ”
Seeing Ah Xiu's insistence, Su Xin accepted the veil, Dai Si solemnly checked the pulse, listened to Ah Xiu's self-reported symptoms, and was silent for a while. Seeing this, Ah Xiu's heart sank, and asked, "But my body is not very good?" Sir, I don't shy away from this. ”
Dai Si stood up and said, "The princess forgives the sin, it is a contemptible faux pas, and the princess's jade body has never been harmed." The pulse is just a false fire, please don't worry about the princess. Ah Xiu wondered: "In this case, why does Mr. show a contemplative look?" ”
Hearing Ah Xiu's question, Dai Si smiled: "The princess is too worried, the symptoms are indeed as the contemptible people said, the contemptible people just suspect that this disease is very serious, and I think that the princess should not have such a big heart fire for a while, so she hesitated." ”
"If that's the case, it's okay, it's because I'm too careful." Ah Xiu remembered that getting up early to eat was still as usual, and after thinking about it, she suddenly became enlightened, knowing that it was because of the fact that she was pregnant because of Fang Cai's frost and Lan Cai's confession that she was too worried for a while, and her heart was angry.
