Chapter 5: Nightmares
After figuring out some things, Wu Tianrou felt that her heart was finally a lot calmer, and after tossing and turning around the quilt a few times, she finally slowly fell asleep......
As soon as I slept at dawn, although I only slept in the second half of the night, I was no longer depressed in my heart, but I rested well.
When I got up this morning, there were a lot of maids who came in to serve, but no one dared to make extra noises to make Wu Tianrou, because everyone knew that the young lady was frightened by the nightmare last night and didn't rest well.
This is all thanks to the big-mouthed Cui Zhi, and now the nightmare of Miss last night has become known to everyone in Yunxiang Courtyard.
"Rou'er, how are you feeling now?"
Wu Tianrou had just finished grooming by the maid, and the bead curtain at the door sounded, and Mrs. Wu's voice had already come.
"Mother, why did you come here so early?" Turning her head in surprise, Wu Tianrou saw Mrs. Wu coming over with a worried face.
"I'm fine, what do you say, did you fall into the lotus pond yesterday and be frightened, and you will have a nightmare last night."
Walking a few steps to Wu Tianrou's side, Mrs. Wu raised her hand and touched her forehead and cheeks.
"Look at you, your face is so bad, go back to bed and lie down." Forced Wu Tianrou back to the bed, Mrs. Wu raised her eyes to look at the maids in the house.
"Cuizhi, you go to the housekeeper and ask him to invite Dr. Chen from the Rejuvenation Hall to come and take a look at Miss, remember to know quickly."
"Yes, ma'am, the slave and maid will go at once." Cuizhi leaned over and bowed, and hurriedly walked out.
"Miss is not feeling well today, so don't move around much today, just do your own thing, and disperse."
With a wave of her hand at the little maids, Mrs. Wu stopped paying attention to them.
"Yes, ma'am, the slaves and maidservants have stepped aside."
After the little maids gave a salute, they packed up the toiletries and quietly exited the room, leaving only Cuiping and Mrs. Wu's personal big girl Onyx in front of the bed.
"Mother, I'm fine, I rested well last night, you don't have to worry."
Looking at Mrs. Wu's battle, Wu Tianrou's heart was sweet but also felt impatient. It's just a dream, why are you so nervous?
"Mother, you must not have rested well when you came over so early, why don't you let Onyx accompany you back to rest."
"Mother is fine, today is the day of your father's pilgrimage, and my mother also got up early. You said that you are too, why didn't you inform your mother earlier when you were frightened by nightmares, and it was still dawn before the girl from Cuizhi came to report the situation to her mother. What if something goes wrong, you say? ”
Shaking her head disapprovingly, Mrs. Wu raised her hand and gently tugged the hair on her sideburns behind her ears for Wu Tianrou.
"It's all the fault of the city and the water, it must be the incident that shocked you yesterday, and yesterday you should have asked Dr. Chen to prescribe two doses of medicine for palpitations."
As soon as she heard that she still had to take medicine, Wu Tianrou's nose couldn't help but wrinkle, and she was just about to speak, when the bead curtain at the door sounded, and Cuiqin's voice came.
"Madam, Miss, the old lady heard that Miss was frightened by the nightmare, so she specially sent Miss Begonia over."
"Begonia is here, come in and talk."
Hearing that Mrs. Wu sent someone over, Mrs. Wu hurriedly shouted with a smile outside.
With the sound of small footsteps, a round-faced woman in a pale blue dress turned the screen and walked in.
"Begonia has seen the lady and the eldest lady, and the old lady heard that the eldest lady was frightened and had a nightmare, so she asked the slave maid to come and see the situation. Miss hasn't had breakfast yet, has she? This is the sour jujube kernel porridge that the old lady asked to send to the young lady, which is the best for the nightmare of palpitations. ”
With a smile, he handed over the tray in his hand to Cuiping on the side, and Haitang came to the bed and looked at Wu Tianrou's complexion carefully.
"The eldest lady's complexion really doesn't look good, the old lady has been worried when she heard that the eldest lady fell into the water yesterday, and then she was relieved when she heard that it was okay. This morning, I heard that the eldest lady was frightened and had a nightmare, so I hurriedly asked the small kitchen to make this sour jujube kernel porridge and send it over, and the eldest lady drank it while it was hot. ”
"Thank you grandmother, it's all not good, the tired grandmother is worried, and I have to work for the begonia girl to run this trip, it's really hard." Smiling at the begonia, Wu Tianrou sincerely thanked him.
In her memory, this begonia was extremely loyal to the old lady, and later after the old lady died of illness, she also committed suicide and followed.
Begonia is only in her early twenties, but she has been combing her bun for several years, which is her own choice. In fact, she didn't get married, she just wanted to serve the old lady for the rest of her life, so she volunteered to 'comb her hair' and become an aunt who never married. But everyone doesn't call her aunt, but still calls her Miss Begonia.
"The eldest lady is so polite, you don't have to be like this with the slave."
Listening to Wu Tianrou's words, Haitang had a slight surprise on her face, but she couldn't help laughing.
In the past, Wu Tianrou had always been arrogant and domineering, when had she ever been so polite to her subordinates.
couldn't help but glance at Wu Tianrou again, Haitang really felt that today's eldest lady gave her a different feeling than before.
Knowing what Haitang was thinking, Wu Tianrou smiled slightly, "I know that I was too ignorant before, always arrogant and arrogant, maybe I fell into the water and suffered the baptism of life and death, I will not be the same as before in the future, I want to be a qualified Miss Xiangfu." ”
"Oh, the slave and maid congratulate Madame, Miss can have such a change after an accident, I believe the old lady will also feel comforted."
With surprise, Haitang couldn't help but bend down to congratulate Mrs. Wu. After all, for those of them, the better the master, the better the family, and the better they can live.
"Miss, you haven't eaten breakfast yet, let's drink a bowl of sour jujube kernel porridge sent by the old lady while it's hot."
Put the porridge sent by the begonia into a small bowl, and Cuiping came to the bed with a delicate small porcelain bowl.
"It's not too early, it's almost time for the old lady to worship the Buddha, and the slave won't disturb the eldest lady to rest. Madame, eldest lady, the slave and maid retreated first. ”
Bowing to Mrs. Wu and Wu Tianrou, Begonia walked out slowly with a smile under the nod of Mrs. Wu and returned to the old lady's Xishou Hall.
Leaning on the cushion, Meimei drank the sour jujube kernel porridge fed by Mrs. Wu herself, and Wu Tianrou squinted happily.
This scene is what Wu Zixu saw when he walked in, raised his eyebrows slightly, and he bypassed the screen in a few steps. "Okay, they all said that you had a nightmare, I think you are enjoying it!"
