Chapter 119: Qiu Ju rescues people from the bamboo forest
Leisurely living under the west window, under the light of three bright candles, Sister Hui'er was sweating. The news that Xiao Li gave her still shocked her.
"I didn't expect that I could get such a precious secret medicine, but the old lady looked up to me." Sister Hui couldn't help but sigh
"Humph! I don't want you to know about it at such a young age. Xiao Li's eyes were full of sarcasm, and the boudoir girl actually knew how much aphrodisiac was worth, no wonder it was raised by Qin's slut.
"My niece has always liked to read miscellaneous notes or something, and the fourth aunt has always believed that 'a woman is virtuous if she is not talented', so she was naturally surprised." Sister Hui looked at her and said matter-of-factly.
Xiao Li's father is a concubine who does not learn and has no skills, and her mother is just a small daughter, and she has not received much education, so naturally Xiao Li has also obtained the true inheritance of her parents. Since marrying into Anning Houfu, this has always been a place where she feels ashamed, and she doesn't want to be mentioned.
"You don't understand me, I don't understand those things. But I understand, no matter how your godmother grinds her tongue and plays tricks, as long as you fall off the horse, it's okay if you die, if you can't die, you will be a plaything in the hands of the old lady for the rest of your life. The corners of Xiao Li's mouth hooked up a cold smile. Sister Hui felt that this was more infiltrating than the deliberately coquettish or arrogant smile in the past.
"The fourth aunt has always been surnamed Li, how can the old lady also take care of you, how can I not think that this is a game within a game?" Sister Hui turned her head and asked lightly.
"I don't care if you believe it or not."
Xiao Li's arrogance was undiminished, and when he heard Sister Hui'er's words, he got up and left without hesitation. Sister Hui didn't do anything to save her when she saw this, but she heard Moshu say outside the house: "The fourth wife walks slowly." ”
Sister Hui thought about it, but in the end, she would rather believe it or not.
After tossing and turning all night, she never closed her eyes, and the next day, the ink painting was very entangled and kept covering her dark circles.
"Miss, what did the fourth lady tell you yesterday? What keeps you up all night? ”
"Is Qiu Ju back?" Sister Hui asked
"No, yesterday I said that I would go out to do something, change slaves and maids to keep vigil with Moqin, but I haven't come back yet, and I don't know where I went." Ink painting is also chanting.
Although he knew that Qiu Ju would not have returned, he did not give up and asked, and he replied that he had not seen the ink painting, for fear that there was really no trace. Her heart was pounding, although she had planned early on how she would deal with herself and how to rescue Qiu Ju if she failed and was arrested, but at this time, she was still very flustered when she thought that she was likely to be caught.
"Miss, you just have a riding suit, or the old lady prepared it after returning to Beijing, what should you wear if you don't wear that suit today? Is it disobeying the princess's orders? Mo Hua looked at Sister Hui and asked with a frown.
At that time, although horseback riding was also regarded as one of the pastimes, in fact, due to aesthetic problems, few people still went, and today's Chongwen, horseback riding is not very popular.
But the fierce princesses in the imperial city like it more, and they always hold three or five such parties a year, and the old lady was going to send her to the palace, so she also invited the master to teach one or two, and prepared a set of riding clothes.
It was because of this that the old lady dared to make a fuss about her clothes, because she knew that she had nothing to change, and that she could not openly disobey the princess's orders.
"It's okay, you go to find my bottom of the ash box, there is a set of strong suits, when I was in Yizhou, my mother was going to come to give me a spring play, because the old tailor invited by the house at that time made a mistake in the size, made the size of a girl, the material is the best Su Jin, my mother felt a pity, so she stayed, saying that it was for me to grow up to wear, I estimated that this can be done."
The ink painting went in response, but in the end, I felt that the strength was not as good as the riding costume, and it was always a pity that I couldn't dress up my own girl to be amazing, and I thought about it in my heart.
It was funny to see Moqin combing her hair.
"It's done, don't laugh, go and bring the plum-shaped silver hairpin in my mother's dowry box and put it on my hairpin." Sister Hui commanded.
"Miss, you are going to the palace to play with the princess, not to the countryside to pick fruits, although not to mention bringing the best jewelry, but don't just bring silver, you see, don't wait for you to come out of the palace, it will be spread all over the capital." The ink painting always treats the rumors from the perspective of a gossip pioneer, which makes Sister Hui laugh out loud.
"It's okay, your young lady has become the center of the topic, you also have to talk, you can go and talk to others a few more words."
"Miss!" The ink painting stomped his foot, revealing some annoyance.
After that, no matter how much Sister Hui teased, she didn't want to talk anymore, until Sister Hui went out in a strong suit and waved goodbye to her, she had a calm face.
Sister Hui still went into Shoukang Hall to ask for peace as usual, and the old lady didn't want to see her in the past, but this time she let her into the inner room.
This is the first time the old lady has seen her since she was sick, and Sister Hui couldn't help but be surprised. Although she shouted an old lady in the mansion according to her identity and seniority, and her age was over fifty, in fact, because of proper maintenance, she had green silk and a face that could barely see a few wrinkles, and when she went out to say that it was Chu Jinzhang's concubine, some people believed it.
But at this moment, looking at the whole person leaning crookedly on the side of the bed, his hair was at least one-third white, his face was dark and bloodless, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were very obvious when he spoke, and he really looked like a woman in her fifties.
"You can get this honor, the glory of the whole house, and serve the seventh princess for a good life, don't make trouble in the palace and cause trouble for the family." The snarky language is still as sharp as ever.
Sister Hui was even more panicked in her heart, not afraid of the sudden change of the enemy, but afraid that the enemy would be calm and quiet.
"The granddaughter has been taught, and the granddaughter has gone."
"Well, go ahead." The old lady waved her hand and said.
"By the way, Brother Xuan is studying in the academy in Jiangnan, is it okay?" Sister Hui had already walked to the door, but suddenly heard the old lady asking behind her.
"My granddaughter doesn't know, I haven't heard from her for a long time." Sister Hui'er, I couldn't figure out what the old lady meant, so I had to answer with my eyes down.
Sister Hui walked out of Shoukang Hall suspiciously all the way, and she didn't come up with a reason until she left the gate of Anning Mansion.
"Our young lady is here, Mama, let's go." But it was Qiu Ju's voice.
Hearing this, Sister Hui raised her head and saw Qiu Ju already standing beside the carriage looking at her and smiling.
Sister Hui'er's heart can be regarded as falling.
"You're hurt?" After walking for a while, Sister Hui frowned and suddenly asked.
"I can't hide anything from Miss." Qiu Ju smiled slightly, put down the teapot with tea, and said.
"You have always used your right hand to hold the pot for me, and your left hand is holding the bottom of the pot, but you only used your right hand just now, which shows that your left hand is inconvenient."
"Say, what have you encountered, it's more convenient for you and me to be in the carriage at this time, but it's inconvenient to talk about these housework when you enter the palace."
Although there is no old lady and Chu Jinzhang in the palace, as the companion of the seventh princess, it is naturally the seventh princess's faction, the seventh princess is favored by thousands of people, except for a few princes, it is also the target of everyone, Sister Hui has to be cautious at all times.
"Last night, according to Miss's deployment, the slave maid first sneaked into the Nanzhu Forest with the secret guard given by Miss. Everything went well, but I never thought that gunpowder was buried in the bamboo forest, once I stepped on it, it was equivalent to pulling the lead, and the slave maid was only slightly injured, but lost one of your secret guards. ”
"Landmines?" Obediently, Sister Hui once again sighed what kind of world this is, can those colleagues who cross leave her a way to live!
"What's that?" Qiu Ju asked suspiciously
"No, you detonated that 'mine', oh, not 'gunpowder', it should be very loud, right, why was there no movement in the house last night?" Sister Hui was even more puzzled.
