The light in the room was a little dim, and she saluted before she had time to take a good look at the people around her.

Mrs. Tai sat on the top, wearing a golden purple cloud pattern with the pattern of five blessings holding longevity, wearing a mink forehead on her head, and a huge red treasure in the middle, making her face more and more peaceful and kind. The next one sat only the second lady, Wang.

On the low couch on the side sat the women of Ruzhen, Rusi, and Rucan in the second room, each of whom was dressed beautifully with hairpin rings.

Ruyao glanced at the person in the guest seat out of the corner of her eye, and finally a stone fell to the ground in her heart, but she pretended to be shy and ignorant and wanted to salute, which made the lady in the guest seat laugh, "Good boy, come and show me." ”

Ruyao Lianbu moved to the front, the lady was wearing a long jacket with a red collar inlaid with silver thread bamboo leaf patterns, with a snow-blue horse-faced skirt, a snow-white face like jade with a smile, and a jade bell trembling slightly in her ears.

"This is Ruyao, it's so big."

She shook Ruyao's hand intimately and asked with a smile, "Do you remember me?" ”

Ruyao knew what she was in her heart, but she pretended to be ignorant and thoughtful, and the noble lady patted her hand, "No wonder you can't remember, you were less than four years old when we last met, and I haven't exceeded my knees yet!" ”

Ruyao's acting skills were very realistic, and her eyes flashed with joy and admiration, "You are the fifth aunt, right......?" I remember, when you gave me a piece of mutton fat white jade, it is exquisite, and I have always treasured it. ”

The fifth aunt's temperament likes to be touted the most, although such a compliment is direct, but it fits her spleen and stomach, so the smile is even stronger, "Yo, the memory of the young age is really good, probably because of the sister-in-law!" ”

The sister-in-law in the mouth of the fifth aunt can only be the deceased Zhang. Although Mrs. Chen didn't come today because of something, such a bold mention made both Mrs. Tai and the Wang family look stiff.

As if she couldn't feel their displeasure and embarrassment, the fifth aunt smiled and pulled Ruyao and didn't let go, looking up and down, but she whispered softly and frowned, "Is your child sick, why is his face so ugly!" ”

Only then did everyone realize that Ru Yao's face was not only pale. His face was sunken and his expression was haggard, and he was simply haggard and disconnected from his lack of qi and blood.

Ruyao pursed her lips slightly, her beautiful eyes seemed to have a thousand words, but in the end, she lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Aunt Lao asked, I'm just slightly infected with the cold, just raise it for a few days." ”

The Wang family on the side stared at this scene, and suddenly frowned imperceptibly, and then turned into a look of love and worry. said: "You kid is too sensible and quiet, don't say anything if you're uncomfortable, don't worry the elders, you go back to rest first." I'm going to have someone go to the doctor right now. ”

Ruyao lowered her head and glanced at her, but there was a color of wisdom in the sparkling, she was about to leave, but was stopped by the fifth aunt. "Wait."

Ruyao's heartbeat suddenly quickened - she knew that the most critical moment of the Dao was coming, but her face was deferential and peaceful, waiting for orders.

The fifth aunt bent the corners of her lips without smiling at Wang's skin. "The second sister-in-law is the handsome person who is the director of the Hou Mansion, and she is very busy, but the nobles are too forgetful, and they forget that my husband is also from the apricot forest."

A haze flashed in Wang's eyes, but there was a smile on his face, "The fifth brother-in-law is a dignified medical officer, where do the younger generations have to work for him when they have a little wind and cold, the medical skills of the doctors we often invite in our house are not bad, and they are close to here——"

The fifth aunt interrupted her unceremoniously, "I don't need my lord to go to the clinic in person, since I married him, my husband and wife have also learned some kung fu to look at the situation, let me check the pulse and see the condition." ”

Wang instinctively felt a danger - she couldn't tell what it was for, but she had a very bad premonition, and she wanted to excuse herself but couldn't find any reason, but the lady at the top seemed to hear the edge of their words, and said with a smile: "A good seven-grade woman, you have to take the pulse of a doctor as soon as you look at your face, you are obsessed, you can be selected to be a female doctor in the palace." ”

Mrs. Tai is the mother-in-law of Mrs. Fifth Aunt, and she said this in a soft and smiling tone, as if she was blaming her naughty and ignorant little daughter, but the Fifth Aunt heard the displeasure and ridicule in her words.

Seven Grades!

The fifth aunt's cheeks twitched, and an embarrassed and resentful glint flashed in her eyes.

Her husband's surname is Xia, and he is a deputy medicine deputy of the Imperial Pharmacy, but because he is not favored by the nobles of the palace, he does not even have the opportunity to enter the palace to diagnose the pulse, so he can only do nothing and mess around.

Although the fifth aunt is a concubine, she is also the daughter of the Hou Mansion, and when she was discussing her relatives, she was originally the second son of a new imperial examination person or an official eunuch family, but she was blown by Mrs. Tai and was allowed to marry this mediocre Xia Taiyi.

And the Wang family also has a grudge against her - originally when Mrs. Zhang was there, the three festivals and six ceremonies sent to the Xia Mansion were extremely rich, and it was also because the Zhang family sympathized with this little sister-in-law's poor family background and secretly took care of it. But since the Wang family took charge of the family, the gifts sent were all ordinary and worthless objects, and Mrs. Wugu was angry, and since then she has also held a grudge against the Wang family.

As for what was chosen to enter the palace as a female doctor, it is not a good thing to say - since the first year of Yongle, the inner court has selected medical women to enter the palace several times to serve the concubines, but it is difficult to leave the palace again, so the selected ones are either daughters who have no livelihood in the middle of the family, or widows from the medical family.

Mrs. Wugu was not a broad-minded person in the first place, because her husband's career and the coldness of her mother's family had already accumulated a belly of evil fire, looking at the lady and the Wang family in front of her, but she was almost unable to make up the whole set of first-class heads, she suddenly gritted her teeth with hatred, and sneered: "Mother praises, my daughter really can't afford it - my lord's medical skills are very average, and he doesn't even want to look for him when his relatives are seriously ill, and I, a wife, will not have any tricks. My mother and second sister-in-law believe me, too. ”

This is very polite, and it is directly about the last time Guangren Guangyu was injured by a rockery - at that time, the Hou Mansion was looking for a good doctor in the world, but he just left his aunt Xia Taiyi and ignored it, as if there was no such person.

A look of embarrassment flashed on Wang's face, and his hands in his sleeves tightened the handkerchief-Shen Yuan also wanted to invite Imperial Doctor Xia at that time, but she stopped him—in Wang's opinion, a quack doctor like Imperial Doctor Xia couldn't even enter the palace gate, and the hall was full of doors, and going to him was just delaying the child's condition.

She barely smiled, "Fifth sister is really too careful, we were in a daze, and it just so happened that my mother's family sent one-"

Before the words fell, I heard an exclamation from the maids on the side—followed by the sound of a heavy object falling, along with a porcelain vase falling and shattering!

"Oh no, Miss Ruyao has fainted!" (To be continued......)
