Chapter 022: Vacation Stealing
After sending Pan Xia away, Ru Xuan felt extremely tired, and the pain on her face was also coming from bursts, which made her upset, so she simply closed her eyes and quietly recuperated.
Qiaohui was overturning the river and the sea in her heart at this time, and she didn't know what it was like. Although Ru Xuan gave her incense powder, causing her to be implicated for no reason, Ru Xuan also took the responsibility for the crime and did not shirk the slightest. On the contrary, in order not to be held accountable for any crime, she summoned all the things she knew......
Thinking about it, Qiao Hui always felt sorry for Ru Xuan, and felt guilty in her heart, and wanted to talk to Ru Xuan well, not to accompany her, it can be seen that Ru Xuan has closed her eyes, as if she doesn't want to talk to her, so she stopped talking, only picked up the handkerchief and went to the cold water, and put it on Ru Xuan's cheek while it was cold.
Ru Xuan only felt a burst of coldness, and the hot pain suddenly alleviated a lot, and it was expected that Qiaohui was not at ease, but at this time she was still powerless to discuss these trivial matters, so she just closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Seeing that Ru Xuan ignored it, Qiaohui thought at first that she was angry and didn't want to pay attention to herself, but later saw that she was breathing evenly and snoring slightly, so she thought that she was too tired and fell asleep, so she was relieved.
Ru Xuan got the permission of Cui Zhangshi and was able to do no work for a month, but Qiaohui didn't have such a good treatment, and the clothes to be washed yesterday and today were also placed there vividly, and she didn't touch a single bit. If you don't wash it again, I'm afraid you'll be scolded again. In this way, Qiaohui had no time to take care of Ru Xuan anymore, rolled up her sleeves, took the wooden bucket, and walked towards the big water tank.
In the end, it was just a skin injury, although those individuals were a little heavier, but under the careful conditioning of daily external application, it was still much better. The redness on the cheeks has subsided somewhat, but it's still red, and it's intimidating.
It's not beautiful in the first place, but now this situation is really worse!
Looking at the image in the basin, Ru Xuan let out a long sigh, and helplessly used her fingers to draw ripples out of the peaceful sleep, and the figure of Fang Cai was suddenly shattered.
The palace maids of the Huanyi Bureau can also go to receive some medicines to treat injuries, but the ones they receive are all the lowest-level, the slowest results, and even some of them are medicinal materials that have been stored for a long time, and the efficacy is naturally low. Therefore, what Ru Xuan hopes for at this time is that after the injury is healed, she will not leave any terrifying scars, otherwise, she will really not be able to see people for the rest of her life.
Don't say anything else, just in the past few days, the people in the Huanyi Bureau are okay, they know what happened, so they don't talk nonsense, but as long as Ru Xuan walks out of the gate of the Huanyi Bureau, she meets the palace maids or eunuchs of other palaces or something, all she gets is pointing and whispering, and some people simply take a detour when they see her directly. I even heard "I must have made a mistake and been punished!" "It's unlucky!" and other ugly words, which made Ru Xuan feel sad for a while. If this really leaves some scar, others must ask what the reason is, which is equivalent to taking out this unpleasant memory again. Just thinking about it makes me feel annoying......
Originally, Ru Xuan thought that she would go to Shang Meiren to thank her when she was better, but she was afraid that she would go out too much to attract attention, and if she provoked some undeserved gossip for Shang Meiren for no reason, it would be worth the loss. Simply, Ru Xuan has been staying in the Huanyi Bureau every day recently, not taking half a step. However, it's okay to live like this for a day or two, but after a long time, I feel so boring.
In the end, it is still the life of suffering and sin, and it is not easy to rest for a while, and I can feel bored! Ru Xuan secretly laughed at herself.
But ridicule is ridicule, and finally got a month of free time, and it is really time to plan and plan, otherwise this good time is really wasted. Thinking of this, Ru Xuan also decided to take advantage of this time to study and practice calligraphy. After weighing for a long time, Ru Xuan carried a blue cloth bag on her back, lowered the head on both sides of her cheeks, and walked out of the gate of the Huanyi Bureau with her head down.
"Sister Ru Xuan, where are you going?" Qiao Hui saw Ru Xuan going out in a hurry, and she was not very relieved, so she asked casually.
"Get out for a walk." Ru Xuan replied with a smile, but did not explain the real situation.
Although Ru Xuan and Qiaohui have released their suspicions from the last time, in Ru Xuan's opinion, Qiaohui's temperament has floated a little, her mouth is fast, and she likes to talk about something that she doesn't have, Ru Xuan is afraid that something will happen again, so she didn't tell the truth.
"Then you come back early, and you have to apply medicine at night!" Qiaohui didn't think so, thinking that Ru Xuan was hit hard by what happened last time, and her feelings were not good, so she just wanted to go out for a walk, so she didn't even raise her head, just rubbing the clothes in her hands.
"Well, I'll be back before dinner." Ru Xuan said, and she had walked out of the gate of the Huanyi Bureau.
At this time, it was after lunch, and the masters of the palaces were also resting, and the palace people were also waiting for them, and the weather was getting hotter. Therefore, Ru Xuan has never met anyone along the way, which is exactly what she wants.
The place where I used to find to practice calligraphy is still remote and difficult to find, the rare set of stone tables and stools is still smooth and neat, and a thick weeping willow next to it just provides the shade needed, plus there is a lake next to it, and the coolness comes with the wind, even in the middle of summer, it will not feel hot.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that this is paradise. Although it has been left unattended for a long time, the sparse lotus flowers that grow crookedly stand there, which is in stark contrast to the exquisite rockeries around it, but it is a unique and poignant beauty.
Putting down the cloth bag, Ru Xuan picked up the prepared rag and wiped the stone table and stone bench, afraid that the dust accumulated for a long time would stain the books that Shang Meiren lent her, fortunately, because there was a lot of rain yesterday, it was not very dirty, and it was clean with a slight sweep.
After cleaning, Ru Xuan took a copy and opened it and read it carefully.
Although the Song Dynasty had technologies such as wire-bound books and movable type printing, after all, the printing cost was large and the sales volume was small, and most of the books were still hand-written. At that time, the monitoring of book publishing was not very high, so many books were copied and distributed privately. For example, the book that Ru Xuan is reading now is not a formal book, but can only be said to be a collection of some popular poems, plus some simple annotations, obviously someone has excerpted his favorite poems together.
However, this is not bad, many of these poems that have been handed down are some that Ru Xuan read when she was studying, such as the poet Immortal Li Bai's "Difficult to Walk", "Will Enter the Wine", etc., easy to remember, even if you encounter traditional Chinese characters that you don't know, you can roughly know how to read these words through guò memory, which saves a lot of effort.
It's just that, read and read, it's another thing to write.
