Chapter 236: All kinds of flattery
"A few pairs of gold silk auspicious cloud embroidered shoes came down from the previous one, I see that the size is just right for you, and now you happen to be here, you can try it." The Queen Mother put the cloak on Ah Xiu, pulled Ah Xiu and said, smiling.
Before the Queen Mother said, Mama Lu had already brought those shoes over.
They are all freshly made shoes, not to mention the workmanship, but the style, which is the most popular in Beijing recently.
The embroidered on it are all the nobles of the capital now, the favorite patterns, and the silk threads used are the most rare and precious.
Although the Queen Mother just said that it was sent from below, it was actually what she specially ordered to go down and just done.
Otherwise, at her age, she would not be able to wear embroidered shoes with such a young style.
And after all, she is in this position now, and she usually speaks and dresses more steadily, and shoes like pink and peach naturally won't be worn.
"Look, this color is superb." Mama Lu took out a pair of tender yellow ones, which looked very fresh, with silver threads entwined on them, and they looked even more playful and vivid when worn on thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls.
"These shoes are too fancy...... Ah Xiu glanced at them, there were a lot of patterns embroidered on them, if she was more than a dozen years younger in her mental age, maybe she would like them.
"Where is it fancy, this noble girl in the capital likes this the most." Mama Lu said on the side, she had specifically inquired.
When Ah Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but glance at the Queen Mother.
In fact, these embroidered shoes were made especially for her......
It's just that the more she treats her like this, the more uncomfortable she feels in her heart.
If she doesn't care about herself. Even if she speaks coldly, she may be able to feel better, so that she can hate her directly.
It's just that she has to be good to herself everywhere, and she always looks at herself with that kind of loving eyes.
Ah Xiu thinks that she is not from the appearance association, but with the appearance of the queen mother, it is a little difficult for her to be hard-hearted.
"It's a great match." Ah Xiu said, pointing to a pair of dark red shoes, on which rich peony flowers were embroidered with gold and silver thread, which looked very atmospheric.
"Ah Xiu's vision is naturally excellent." When the Queen Mother heard Ah Xiu say that, she took the shoes directly. He smiled and said, "I'm very happy to see it." ”
She didn't have a special fondness for the color. Just because of Ah Xiu's words, she looked at this shoe, and naturally liked it very much.
"I look at it too, why don't you try it, mother?" Mama Lu saw that the Queen Mother was a little eager to try. But it's not easy to show the appearance. Directly gave her a step. So that she can take advantage of the situation.
When the Queen Mother heard this, her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "Then I'll try." ”
Because it was picked by Ah Xiu. That's why she's so interested.
"Exactly." Mama Lu waited for the Queen Mother to change her shoes, the Queen Mother's feet were not big, but they were not small, but because they were slender, they looked very good-looking.
Even though I was wearing socks, I could see that my feet were in a beautiful shape.
"Then let's dress like that." The Queen Mother gently kicked her original shoes to the side, and she planned to stop it directly.
When Mama Lu saw her little action, she just covered her mouth and smiled softly.
"Ah Xiu, why don't you try this pair?" The Queen Mother heard Ah Xiu say that the tender yellow was too fancy, so she chose a grassy green one with delicate small flowers embroidered on it, compared to the pair of tender yellow, this pair looked more ordinary.
But this cloth looks ordinary, but it is not ordinary at all, it is a very rare cloud satin, and it feels very silky.
At first glance, it is no different from ordinary satin, but it can be clearly felt on the feel. This year, there are only a few dozen horses, and ordinary people have never even seen them.
Generally, the powerful have it, and most of them are used to make intimate clothes for children, how can it be used to make shoes so wasteful.
"Okay." Ah Xiu glanced at it, this green one was the most ordinary pair, and nodded.
When the Queen Mother saw Ah Xiu nodding, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.
Mama Lu watched them get along with each other, and a hint of relief flashed on her face.
Ah Xiu's feet are smaller than the queen mother's feet, after all, she is still young, and she put on the grass-green embroidered shoes and walked two steps slightly, just the right size.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
At Ah Xiu's age, her feet are still growing, although she has observed the size of Ah Xiu's feet before, she specially instructed the craftsmen to make shoes according to this size.
But I'm afraid that if I wear it after a while, the size will be wrong.
"I look frivolous when I wear the color, you wear it just right at your age, and this peach, pink, and tender yellow, you remember to bring it, if you don't like it, give it to the little sister who is good friends, I remember that the little girl of the Gu family is about the same age as you." The Queen Mother said with a smile.
If Ah Xiu had been raised by her side, she would have been able to dress her up since she was a child.
Now, although some things can't be done above board, the Queen Mother is very happy to be able to do it like this.
Compared to the earlier days, it is now supreme happiness.
"Thank you, mother." Ah Xiu hurriedly thanked him.
"You don't have to be so reserved." The Queen Mother gently patted Ah Xiu's hand and chatted.
"Just now, Dr. Tang checked the pulse of the Empress Dowager, I don't know what the situation is?"
If it was according to the normal procedure, Ah Xiu had just come in, and the Queen Mother should have asked about the Empress Dowager's situation first, but she asked Ah Xiu to pick out the shoes first.
This made Ah Xiu a little confused, what the Queen Mother's feelings for the Queen Mother were.
"Dr. Tang said that there is no cure." Ah Xiu said that she naturally would not tell the secret in it.
"That's it......" A shallow regret flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes.
If that person said that, then there must really be no way.
Although she felt a little sad in her heart, there were some things that she could not control.
Birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature.
"I heard that Niangniang's body is also unwell, I don't know where it is uncomfortable?" Ah Xiu took advantage of the Queen Mother holding her hand. With a slight twist, he grabbed the queen mother's wrist.
"I just didn't sleep well." Sensing Ah Xiu's movements, the Queen Mother stiffened and shrank her hand back.
Ah Xiu didn't use much strength in the first place, so it was naturally out of her wrist.
Although it was only a short moment, Ah Xiu still noticed a lot of problems.
The Queen Mother's heart is very weak, and her internal organs seem to be in a state of failure.
Obviously only in his early thirties, but his pulse is like an old man in his fifties and sixties.
It made her not think about it too much.
"Niang Niang is here this year. Is your body very weak? Ah Xiu couldn't help but ask.
She didn't think she should do it. But the mouth is a step ahead of the thought in the heart.
When the Queen Mother heard Ah Xiu say this, she was shocked, and hurriedly smiled: "You see where I look like a person with a bad body, but I haven't slept very well in the past few years." So it's a little uncomfortable. ”
She didn't study medicine after all. I can think of it all at once. It's just a pale excuse.
If it's just bad sleep, how can the heart pulse be so damaged?
But she didn't sleep well, and it wasn't fake.
"It's not a good night's sleep. The problem can be big or small, I don't know if the mother has the habit of incense on weekdays? Ah Xiu asked.
"I don't really like those weird smells." The Queen Mother covered her mouth slightly.
When she was young, it wasn't that she didn't like these things, after all, she was a woman, and she liked them somewhat.
Especially when he was still in the Tang family, he would use various medicinal herbs to make various spices for himself, just to make her happy.
Later, when she came to the palace, she was drugged in her incense and almost died.
From then on, she didn't need incense.
It's not that she's afraid of death, it's just that she doesn't want to use her death to fulfill other people's desires.
"I have a recipe here, using incense made from these herbs to improve sleep." Ah Xiu said.
Her sanity told her not to be in such a nosy.
But her mouth was faster than reason, and she could only comfort herself that she had just accepted someone's shoes, so that she would be treated as a gift.
"I'll go get pen and paper." Mama Lu listened beside her, and immediately took the initiative to take the pen and paper.
This prescription prescribed by others, the Queen Mother may not listen to it.
But this is written by Ah Xiu, even if she doesn't like this thing in her heart, she will be obedient.
In the past, if other doctors prescribed any medicine, the Queen Mother was very casual, and sometimes she would drink two sips when she was in a good mood, so her body never got better.
Now, if Ah Xiu is willing to help her recuperate......
When Mama Lu thought of this, she couldn't help but have some expectations in her heart.
"Niangniang, if you let Ah Xiu take a look, I see that Ah Xiu's medical skills are excellent." Mama Lu said, looking at the Queen Mother expectantly.
When the Queen Mother heard this, she frowned, and glanced at Mama Lu with some disapproval.
Her current situation, how can she let Ah Xiu know.
"Mama, you're confused, it's just a little insomnia, where do you need to take a closer look."
When Mama Lu heard this, her heart ached, she had made up her mind to go down in such a dilapidated state.
Why didn't she want to think about it, she was gone, she was happy, what about the people who stayed?!
If Ah Xiu knows the truth in the future, how will he feel!
"Although it's just insomnia, it's not a small problem, why don't the Queen Mother let the people take a look." Ah Xiu said, pausing slightly: "Or does the mother not believe in the medical skills of the people's daughters?" ”
"I naturally believe in your medical skills, but I am the most impatient to see a doctor and diagnose the pulse, so you can prescribe me a prescription to calm my nerves." The Queen Mother smiled a little reluctantly, and gently stroked her right wrist with her left hand.
She hadn't had her pulse checked for a long time, and she didn't want anyone else to know how she was doing.
She was already very relieved to be able to find Ah Xiu before her body was completely corrupted.
No matter how long she can live, she will never feel regrets again! (To be continued......)
