Zhen Baolu respects Mama Xin, but although this kind of thing is a trivial matter, she can't turn a blind eye. She asked Xianghan to call Mama Xin and ask about it by the way.
Mama Xin didn't expect this matter to be bumped into by Zhen Baolu, so she immediately knelt down and said, "Young lady, it was the old slave who saw those pastries placed there, and the weather was hot, if you didn't eat it, it would definitely be bad, so she moved her mind and secretly took it." The old slave was willing to be punished by the young lady. β
Zhen Baolu just entered the door, even if she just set up the rules, it is not easy to take Mama Xin under the knife. This Mama Xin takes care of Xue Rang, and there is no credit and hard work. She hurriedly helped Mama Xin up and said, "I'm just asking, Mama Xin doesn't have to be nervous." Those pastries are indeed wasteful, but they have to be told to me about this after all. β
Mama Xin said: "It's the old slave's fault." β
Zhen Baolu is not mainly pursuing this matter, and she feels uncomfortable when she scares Mama Xin like this. Is she really that scary? Zhen Baolu looked at Mama Xin's expression, smiled slightly and said, "Mama Xin and Aunt Lan are quite close. β
"Aunt Lan came from the Lu family with the old slave back then, she has been in poor health all these years, and she has no children and no daughters under her knees, so the old slave will go over to see her when she is free. In the past few days, Aunt Lan has been sick strictly, and the old slave knows that Aunt Lan likes sweets the most, and when she sees those leftover pastries, she thinks about sending them to her. β
Zhen Baolu had heard that this Aunt Lan had given birth to a girl earlier, but that girl was a blessed girl, but she died early at the age of two or three.
Zhen Baolu said: "Since you are sick, why don't you ask a doctor?" "Although this Aunt Lan has no heirs, she is also the concubine of An Guogong in the end, so there is no reason why she will not even invite a doctor if she is sick.
Mama Xin saw that the young lady had no intention of blaming her, and that she was kind in her heart, so she said truthfully: "Duchess Guo said, delay it for a few more days." β
This Wang is really a deceptive and fearful of evil!
Zhen Baolu didn't think that she just didn't like her, but after only a few days, she felt that this Wang family was really hateful. Zhen Baolu pondered, this Aunt Lan is Xue Rangniang's personal maid of the Lu family. This Lu family's people in the Anguo Mansion are now left with Mama Xin and Aunt Lan, and the Wang family can't tolerate it at all.
Zhen Baolu also had nothing to do, so she got up and said, "I'll go over and take a look." If you are sick and don't ask for a doctor, it's not a way to go. β
Mama Xin was already anxious about Aunt Lan's condition, but now she saw that Zhen Baolu was willing to help, but it couldn't be better. This led Zhen Baolu to Yilanju.
Zhen Baolu went over with Mama Xin.
Compared with the Minghua residence where the Wang family lived before, this Aunt Lan's Yilan residence is really remote, located in the northwest corner of the Anguo Mansion, in front of a piece of green bamboo, and there is a clear lotus pond next to the bamboo forest. Now it is the height of summer, the lotus flowers in the lotus pond are competing to open, the pink is tender and tender, the lotus fields, green like jade, the breeze blows, the pool is sparkling, the nose can smell the fragrance of bamboo leaves and the fragrance of lotus flowers.
I have to say that this Yilanju is too remote. It's the height of summer, and once it's over, it's a feeling of coldness.
Zhen Baolu walked in with Mama Xin, followed by a fragrant cold peach, and before she entered the house, she heard a cough inside, and there was a faint young man's deep voice.
Zhen Baolu was suspicious.
Mama Xin explained, smiled at Zhen Baolu and said, "It's the fifth son." β
The fifth son? In Zhen Baolu's impression, she had never seen this fifth son at all.
Sure enough, when Zhen Baolu entered, he saw a young man sitting next to the bed, wearing a white-washed cyan round-necked robe. Even if he was sitting at this time, he could see that he was a little thin, and his hands holding the tea cup were white and slender, but he was born very good-looking.
And the sickly, skinny woman sitting on the couch was probably Aunt Lan. Although Aunt Lan looked sick and weak at the moment, Zhen Baolu looked at it and felt that this Aunt Lan looked mediocre and had no outstanding facial features.
Mama Xin said, "Aunt Lan, this is the young lady. β
She led Zhen Baolu to Aunt Lan's couch.
The woman by the couch has a young face, but her appearance is outstanding, and she has a pretty face like a jade flower, even the fairy in the sky is nothing more than that. Aunt Lan heard that the eldest prince was married, and when she looked at the young lady, she was ready to stay and salute.
The green-robed young man beside her hurriedly supported her: "Auntie." β
Zhen Baolu also said: "Aunt Lan doesn't have to be polite, just lie down." β
She looked at the young man next to Aunt Lan again, and saw that his face was pale and his face was a little thin, but he was born extraordinarily fair, and his eyebrows were clear, and his appearance was very similar to Xue Rang. It's just that he was thinner, pursed his lips under his eyes, and looked quiet. He helped Aunt Lan up, and then got up and saluted her, "Sister-in-law." β
The boy was about the same height as her, and even slightly shorter than her.
Zhen Baolu nodded, seeing that he was very close to Aunt Lan, if she didn't know, she really thought that they were mother and son.
Aunt Lan is indeed very sick, Zhen Baolu is not nosy, she will come over today, in fact, she is also curious about her deceased mother-in-law Lu. Mama Xin and Aunt Lan had served the Lu family before, so she had to keep them. She ordered Xianghan to invite a doctor, and asked Xiangtao to bring those pastries to Aunt Lan, and when she went out, she said to Mama Xin: "What Aunt Lan wants to eat in the future, let the cook of Siheju make it, no need to be so sneaky." β
Mama Xin was also ashamed when she heard it.
Zhen Baolu thought about the fifth son, so she asked, "Does the fifth prince often come to see Aunt Lan?" β
Mama Xin nodded yes. Speaking of the fifth son, he also looks very distressed.
It turned out that the biological mother of the fifth son was originally a maid who was serving in the study of An Guogong, and once An Guogong was drunk, so there was a fifth son. It's just that the maid is also a blessed one, and she went after giving birth to the fifth son. According to the Wang family's temperament, it is naturally impossible to treat a concubine son well, and Aunt Lan was still very healthy at that time, and she often took care of the fifth son. But he said that although these five sons are young and don't like to talk, they don't have any sense of zΓ i at all in this Anguo Mansion, but they are very filial to Aunt Lan.
Zhen Baolu didn't ask much, just looked at the young man's clear voice behind her, she turned her head when she heard the sound, and looked at him with a depressed look, Zhen Baolu felt that the little guys in the Qi Mansion were better dressed than him.
It's just that the young man's back is straight, and he has a sense of loneliness and pride.
Maybe it's because he and Xue Rang are a little similar, Zhen Baolu is also a little kind when he sees him, seeing that he glanced at her with a pair of dark eyes, and the back looked indifferent, didn't look at her face, lowered his eyes and arched his hand: "Thank you, sister-in-law." β
Zhen Baolu said: "It's all a family, the fifth brother doesn't have to be so polite." β
Although the fifth son was an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, Zhen Baolu didn't have much contact with him, so he went back to Siheju.
After going back, Zhen Baolu saw that Xue Rang was not in the study, but had already returned. She was about to tell him about the matter, but seeing that he was indifferent, she picked up a gilded wedding card from the table and handed it to her.
Zhen Baolu bent her lips and said with a smile: "Which family marries a daughter-in-law?" β
She took the wedding card from Xue Rang's hand, opened it, and looked at the name on it, and then her expression was slightly flustered.
It is the wedding card of Xu Chenglang and Shen Shenyu.
