Chapter 1: Seeking Medicine
As soon as the snow stopped, a thick layer of snow was piled up in the pear orchard, and the maid walked in and out quickly with a nervous face, stepping on the snow and making a creaking sound.
"If you move faster, the second grandmother is about to give birth, everyone should pay attention carefully, the hot water must be ready, and the stable woman is coming?" The housekeeper asked eagerly.
"Not yet, I've already sent someone to invite you! The second master will be back later. ”
With the words of the housekeeper's mother-in-law, the atmosphere in the courtyard became more tense, and the maid carrying the hot water trotted forward.
At this moment, a girl dressed in a small muslin jacket, her face looked a little sallow, her head was combed in a double bun, and she looked like she was in her teens timidly, and approached the housekeeper's mother-in-law timidly: "Mother Li, I'm ...... My mother is sick, can I help get a doctor...... Or...... It's good to give some ephedra......"
After talking about the most, the voice became smaller and smaller, and it was almost inaudible, except for the pair of watery apricot eyes looking at Mother Li timidly.
Mother Li frowned: "Hurry back, now that the second grandmother is about to give birth, no one has time to care about your stubble affairs, if you accidentally delay things here, don't need the eldest grandmother." The eldest lady can't spare you. ”
After speaking, he caught a glimpse of a little maid who accidentally dropped the cotton strip that the second grandmother was going to use to wipe it during childbirth on the ground.
Mother Li stepped forward quickly: "Why are you so careless, hurry, go to the room and get some more, don't delay, these are all things to be used for a while." ”
"There are not enough people in the first place, and there are such things. I have to quickly ask someone to go to another yard to borrow talent......"
Saying that, Mother Li turned around and left, without looking at the girl who was frozen on the side.
After a while, Wen Po arrived, and she hurried into the house, and did not come out of the house to continue to supervise until the delivery began.
When I saw the scene in the courtyard, I was stunned, and I saw that the girl who should have left here naturally followed those maids back and forth to take over the help.
When he saw her come out, he stiffened, revealing a cramped and uneasy expression: "I...... I just wanted to do a little bit of a favor......"
Mother Li couldn't help but have a sour eye, this child was originally also a concubine...... If it weren't for the Zhong family getting into such a lawsuit, it wouldn't have ......
In the final analysis, it was the uncle who was ruthless, spoiling Aunt Liu, and seeing the fall of the Zhong family, he actually raised Aunt Liu as a grandmother, even ignoring his own daughter. This good concubine has become an embarrassing existence that doesn't care about anyone.
Mother Li sighed, and finally called to Liu Rong: "Sister Rong, you are a sensible child, I can't help you with the doctor, I remember what you just said to give some ephedra, right?" ”
Liu Rong hurriedly nodded, her little face tilted up, full of anticipation.
Mother Li's heart was sour again, and she hurriedly turned her head and instructed the second-class maid beside her: "Xiaocui, you take Sister Rong to my house and get some of the medicine I prepared for my family, I remember that there is ephedra in it." ”
After saying that, he hesitated slightly, and added: "There are still some tonics in it, you can also get some for Sister Rong." ”
Xiao Cui on the side frowned: "If this matter is known to the eldest grandmother, I'm afraid it will be ......."
"It's okay, Dafang is now worried about Miss Nine's draft, and he doesn't have time to take care of the second room."
Sister Rong hurriedly nodded gratefully to Mother Li, until Mother Li turned around and continued to be busy, and then followed Cui'er to the room where the maids and daughters-in-law lived.
It's just that she has gone far, but Cui'er's pace is getting slower and slower, and Sister Rong'er frowned slightly, but she continues to follow quietly.
After getting a remote place, Cui'er stopped and looked at Liu Rong with disgust: "Sister Rong, let the slave maid say something that you don't like." Please don't run to the second room in the future, you are like this, not to mention whether it will make the second room and the big room incompatible, but it will be difficult for Mother Li, who will be tired. ”
"Now who in this mansion doesn't know that Mrs. Lu Dao loves Grandma Liu the most, and you yourself know that because your mother is here, Mrs. Tai has wronged her granddaughter to do the side room for many years, even if you don't think about the second room and Mother Li, please don't hurt us as maids anymore!" The more she spoke, the sharper she became, and the disgust on her face became more undisguised.
I still think I'm a concubine, but I'm just an embarrassing concubine. I don't know if there is a lot of trouble in Lu Dao, and so is Mother Li, if she does this, if she is relied on by Sister Rong, and when the time comes, she offends the eldest grandmother, can she still stay in this Hou Mansion? It seems that she has to quickly find a way to distribute it farther away, so as not to be implicated when she gets it.
"I know, this is the last time I have ever seen it."
Just as Cui'er was thinking about it, she heard that Sister Rong, who had been silent before, actually spoke seriously.
Cui'er couldn't help but bow her head, and then she looked at a pair of slightly mocking but sparkling eyes, in front of this look, she actually had a feeling of being seen through, and couldn't help but look too far away, and for a while, even Liu Rong's tone of reply was unusually flat, and the two of them had never noticed before.
Cui'er was stunned for a moment after turning her head, what was wrong with her, she was overwhelmed by the eyes of a timid maid. It's just that how could Sister Rong have such eyes!
Cui'er hurriedly looked at Sister Rong again, and saw that the pair of apricot eyes were still timid, how could they be as sharp as before. Sure enough, it was wrong, if the third girl was not raised by the eldest grandmother and her temperament was as weak, how could Aunt Liu be so easily corrected.
Thinking of this, Cui'er became more and more disdainful of the third lady in the house in front of her, didn't say anything more, and led Liu Rong to continue to walk forward.
Looking at Cui'er's back, Liu Rong's good-looking brows furrowed.
It's really a wall and everyone pushes it, if the Zhong family is still a big grandmother, who would dare to treat her like this, but although this Cui'er hates it, some words are decent, after all, Mother Li is just a mother in charge, if it is only because of her kindness to help her, it is not good to be implicated, it seems that you have to think of other ways to get medicine!
It's just that she has only been in this world for a few days, even if she has a body of medical skills, well, it is a knife technique, and it is useless in this world where even health defense is not sound.
Who would dare to ask a surgeon to operate in this era?
In this way, she will not be able to use her ability to help the cheap mother who is seriously ill for her. In the end, he was reduced to the point that he could only use traditional Chinese medicine, which he usually doesn't pay much attention to, to help the mother of this body to treat.
You still have to pretend to be stupid and stunned like this!
But now I am afraid that even this cannot continue.
However, she was still worried that others would see the flaws, and she didn't dare to ask about many things. There is no way to find a better way. And really to her mother, when she was a little better, she contracted the wind cold, and she was weak and could only stay in bed, and she didn't want the other party to worry anymore.
But even so, I still learned some from the gossip of others.
Her mother, Zhong, was the wife of Uncle Liufu, but because her mother's family participated in the battle for the prince, the Liu family abolished Zhong in order to avoid being implicated, and raised the original Aunt Liu, that is, Mrs. Tai's granddaughter, as his wife.
Without the support of her mother's family, her husband's family regarded her as a snake and scorpion, so Zhong's life was extremely sad. The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the body fell into the lotus pond for some reason a few days ago, but the cold day made her almost die, but fortunately there was a family passing by, so it was rescued.
That's it, I was in a coma for three days and three nights before I woke up. It's just that outsiders don't know that the owner of this body has gone a long time ago, and now it's just a dove occupying a magpie's nest.
What's funny is that she fell into the water, and if she didn't treat it well, she actually put the responsibility for her falling into the water on Zhong's family, moved Zhong and her dying from the plum garden in Shanghao, and forcibly let them move to a side house not far from the firewood house.
The person who did this was so vicious that he clearly wanted her to die.
Fortunately, there is Zhong's here, if it weren't for Zhong's constant guarding day and night, and she guarded it for three days and three nights, she probably wouldn't be able to get to this body, but she woke up, but Zhong was so tired that she fell into a coma.
Mother's love is like this, even if it is not for her, it is she who receives the benefits, and she will heal the mother of this body no matter how she is disordered.
It's just that the more this comparison, the more she can't help but gnash her teeth at those ruthless people. is even more disgusted with the uncle she has never seen in this mansion, that is, her so-called father.
"This is ephedra, take it back quickly." Cui'er took the medicine, her face was cold and hard, and she didn't mention what Mother Li said, and she had to give her the tonic medicine.
Liu Rong frowned slightly, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Cui'er in her hand behind her back, carrying a medicine bag.
"Why don't you hurry back, don't you plan to ask for ephedra?" Cui'er frowned when she saw Liu Rong looking behind her.
Liu Rong silently took the ephedra, and just when a smile appeared at the corner of Cui'er's mouth, she suddenly raised her head and smiled sweetly at Cui'er, and innocently pointed to the medicine bag leaking from Cui'er's side and said: "Mother Li is so good, there is a shortage of people around the second grandmother, and I am worried that I can't take the medicine when I am too young, so let Sister Cui'er help me carry the medicine." ”
"What do you say......
Liu Rong didn't care about Cui'er's mouth at all, Gu Zi tightened her little face and became serious, and continued like a little adult: "I can't be so ignorant, I'll go back with Sister Cui'er, and go back to help Mother Li." ”
As she spoke, she walked in the direction she came from with her things, Cui'er was stunned for a moment, and then she was shocked, if she asked Li's mother to know that she was deducting the drug, it would be okay, so she hurriedly stopped Liu Rong.
"Mother Li doesn't need your help, the maid she borrowed will help."
"No, Mother Li is so good to me, and let Cui'er take the tonic for me and send me back, how can I take care of myself going back, I must help Mother Li." said that despite Cui'er's obstruction, he wanted to continue to move forward.
Seeing that Cui'er couldn't stop Liu Rong, the composure on her face finally couldn't be hung up, and she hurriedly stuffed the medicine bag in her hand into Liu Rong's hand: "Aunt Zhong is sick after all, her body is serious, and she needs someone to take care of her, you better take the medicine and go back to take care of it first, Mother Li has me there, I won't send you back personally." ”
The corners of Liu Rong's mouth were slightly hooked: "How embarrassing is this, the second grandmother is going to give birth, and it is the time to be busy, and Mother Li may not be busy alone." ”
"I'll go back and help out, so I'm busy, you can go back quickly." As he spoke, he didn't wait for Liu Rong to continue speaking, and hurriedly turned around and walked back quickly, as if he was chasing a big worm behind.
"Then Sister Xie Lu Xie Cui'er, and I have to trouble Sister Cui'er to help me say thank you to Mother Li."
Looking at Cui'er, who heard her voice from a distance and sped up a few steps, Liu Rong showed a smug smile and walked back with the medicine satisfied.
said that after the two left, behind the plum tree behind the two walked out a young man dressed in a white brocade robe and a five-clawed golden dragon jade pendant on his waist, only to see him looking at the direction where Liu Rong left with a playful face.
