Chapter 85 Jiaojiao enters the palace to meet the Queen Mother
An hour later.
The soldier stood under the tree, still not seeing the door of the house opened, let alone Bai Jiaojiao's figure, he waited anxiously.
After about a pillar of incense, the soldier saw that the door of the house was finally opened, and it was Zhou Shiling's personal maid who came out with a bowl and walked to the room on the side
Finish.
The soldier quickly walked to the door of the room, threw out a bamboo tube with a note, and threw it into the handmaiden's hand with unmistakable accuracy. He is very familiar with the people of Zhou Shiling's family, and of course he has also seen Zhou Shiling's maidservant, and reminded the maid with his eyes:
Open the bamboo tube and look at it.
The maidservant smiled knowingly, and in front of the soldier, she opened the bamboo tube and took out a small note inside to look at it.
When the maidservant saw the handwriting on the note, she nodded three times at the soldier standing at the door, and gestured to him, indicating that she would definitely help him bring the words.
The maidservant stretched out her hand and pointed to the room next to her, and whispered to the soldiers: "She is so tired, our wife let her rest by the bed, and asked me to come over and cook for them." When she wakes up, I'm going to talk to her. ”
The soldier smiled lightly, which was regarded as a thanks.
Lu Jue, who was standing under the tree not far away, saw it, and knew in his heart that what the soldier entrusted to do was probably done for him. There was a flash in his eyes
Silk delighted.
Let Bai Jiaojiao's woman come and meet him, he wants to see, she looks at him, what can she say to him.
Half an hour later.
Bai Jiaojiao woke up and found herself lying next to Zhou Shiling, covered with a red brocade robe, which must have been covered for her by Zhou Shiling's maidservant.
She gently took off the brocade robe, carefully folded it for Zhou Shiling, and put it on the bed I.
Zhou Shiling opened her eyes, looked at Bai Jiaojiao with a smile, stretched out her hand and lightly put it on the back of her hand, and said, "Su Xi went to cook, maybe it hasn't been cooked yet." You should rest here for a while, and when Su Xi is ready, you will get up and eat again. ”
Listening to Zhou Shiling's voice, it was much clearer than what she heard after the operation on her before.
As a doctor, she is happy to see the patients she treats gradually recovering. It's just that she doesn't want to lie next to Zhou Shiling, this bed is actually not wide, it can barely be regarded as a double bed.
There is not much furniture in the house, and it can be seen that this is a room that has been temporarily taken out for Zhou Shiling to recuperate.
Zhou Shiling saw that Bai Jiaojiao was a little hesitant, and suddenly saw the other party's thoughts, and said: "I found out that I was pregnant after following my husband to Northern Xinjiang. You are a young lady who has not yet come out of the cabinet, and it is indeed a little difficult for me to say this to you. But you are a female doctor, and it will be fine for me to listen to you. ”
Bai Jiaojiao showed an empathetic smile, indicating that she was happy to listen to what Zhou Shiling said.
"You treat me very well, better than those sisters in my family, treat me better." Bai Jiaojiao said sincerely: "I lie next to you to rest, just like lying next to my sister to rest, so I feel safe." ”
A trace of pity flashed in Zhou Shiling's eyes, she reached out and touched Bai Jiaojiao's forehead, and asked with concern: "You saved the lives of me and my children, and with you, the female doctor, lying beside me, I can sleep peacefully." Honestly, I'm a few years older than you, and I've known you for a long time. If you don't mind, think of me as your sister. ”
Bai Jiaojiao's heart warmed, and she immediately called Zhou Shiling sweetly: "Sister." ”
After that, he lay back beside Zhou Shiling, opened the brocade robe, and covered himself. Stretched out his hand to hug Zhou Shiling, and said sincerely: "Sister, it's good to have you." ”
Although Zhou Shiling's maiden family and in-law's family are all famous families in the imperial city, and Zhou Shiling herself is still a female general, in the Dajing Dynasty, I don't know how many women worship Zhou Shiling's nickname.
There is such a woman as Zhou Shiling, who said that she was willing to be her sister, she was really happy.
The daughter of her second uncle's family, Bai Qingyun, is not pure-minded, and she is very unfriendly to her cousin, she doesn't like such a cousin.
"To have a good sister like you is a blessing from my third generation." Zhou Shiling stretched out her hand and pointed in the direction of Beijiang, and said, "Let's swear sisters, but we can't just talk about it, we have to formally bow down." When your brother-in-law returns from the victory in the northern frontier, I will go to Baifu with him.
Please come to my house as a family to witness the friendship between our two sisters. ”
As soon as she heard this, Bai Jiaojiao's eyes flashed with joy, and she said, "Okay." ”
While the two were talking, there was a knock at the door.
Zhou Shiling asked, "Is Su Xi here?" ”
A pleasant female voice came from outside the door, which was the voice of Zhou Shiling's personal maid: "Yes, madam." I've already prepared the meal, and I heard you laughing with the white girl, so I'm here to ask you, is this the food coming? ”
"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, have they gone back?"
Zhou Shiling asked.
When Bai Jiaojiao heard this, she looked forward to saying that His Royal Highness the Second Prince had already gone back. She said that she would do everything she wanted to help His Royal Highness the Second Prince
Finish.
But what she wanted His Royal Highness the Second Prince to do, he was unwilling to do it.
In this way, she didn't want to see His Royal Highness the Second Prince, so as not to annoy him when she saw him. A man who doesn't keep his word, huh.
Su Xi's words came: "Madam, you are here to recuperate. They have done their best to guard us here, and they have never left a single step. ”
"Invite them to dine in the hall, and bring me and my sister the White Girl's meals, so that our two sisters can eat in this room." Zhou Shiling commanded. "Yes, ma'am." Su Xi answered, and hurriedly went to the next room to prepare a meal.
She first brought the chicken soup and even everything to Zhou Shiling into the room and placed it on the wooden table in front of the bed, and then invited Lu Ying and them to the hall to eat.
in the hall.
Lu Ying only brought one of the soldiers in, and as soon as he sat down at the table, he saw Su Xi who came in with a tray. Gan gave the soldier standing opposite a glance to remind him:
Look, Zhou Shiling's maid has come in. You should help this prince ask her, how are you doing the things you asked her to do? ”
The soldier was very understanding, and when Su Xi put a cup of tea on the table, he asked, "...... I wonder what the white girl thinks? ”
Su Xi knows the second prince's affection for Bai Jiaojiao, and she also knows that the second prince's mother is related to her young lady's mother.
I also know that the white girl's father and brother, like my aunt and his father, both led the army to resist the strong enemy in northern Xinjiang.
During the days when the young lady went out with her uncle, she followed the young lady and went to kill the enemy like other soldiers.
She is very grateful to the white girl who is the daughter of the general, or the white girl who saved her young lady. And she also knew that Miss and Aunt Bai had become sisters. In this way, she hopes that the white girl can live well.
Su Xi faced the soldier's question, and said sincerely: "I think, if I don't wait for my wife and Aunt Bai to eat, I'll ask Miss Bai again." I saw that the white girl had a haggard face, and after feeding her wife the medicine, she passed out in front of the bed. Madame asked me to cook chicken soup for the white girl to drink, so that the white girl could replenish her body......"
When Lu Ying heard this, he inevitably felt guilty in his heart.
It's the same, they all blame him.
The woman had been missing for so many days, and she couldn't go back to her home, and it was hard to live outside. But he still put the woman on death row, and starved her all night for no reason.
Thinking of this, Lu Ying couldn't care about any face, and even asked in front of Su Xi: "Isn't there a pancake on the dinner plate, and you didn't serve it to the white girl?" ”
Su Xi hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "The pancakes on the plate, the maid brought them over, and invited the white girl to eat ......."
Lu Jue looked happy and said, "It's good to eat, it's good to eat." ”
Su Xi saw that the smile on Lu Ling's face was very warm, and after returning to the room where Zhou Shiling was, he whispered to Zhou Shiling: "Miss, you haven't seen it, His Royal Highness the Second Prince listened to me, and the white girl ate the pancake." He was as happy as a child, completely different from the cold and cold man he had seen in his daily life. ”
Zhou Shiling quietly glanced at Bai Jiaojiao and couldn't help but snicker.
The sister she worshipped has a beautiful face and an extraordinary temperament, not only has superb medical skills, but also is kind-hearted and upright.
It is reasonable for the second prince to be able to love his sister.
But Zhou Shiling saw that Bai Jiaojiao had an embarrassed look on her face, and she knew in her heart that maybe her sister was not emotional about the second prince yet. So he gave Su Xi a look and motioned to the other party to change the topic.
Su Xi smiled knowingly, and said, "Madam, I should go to the hall to have a look, do you want to pour them wine......
Zhou Shiling nodded slightly, "Go ahead, don't neglect the guests." ”
Seeing Su Xi stand up and leave the room, Zhou Shiling took a pair of chopsticks to pick up vegetables for Bai Jiaojiao, and said, "Sister, try Su Xi's fried beans and eggplant, they taste very good." ”
Bai Jiaojiao ate a little, and felt that the beans were sour. I also understood in my heart that this was Zhou Shiling's favorite dish, so let her taste it too.
But in the summer, she prefers to eat sweet, even if it is just a plate of honey. Juice tomatoes, she can also eat very happily. But at this time, she can only think about it.
In this plane, there are not necessarily tomatoes.
Bai Jiaojiao also used chopsticks to clip pork ribs and lotus root slices for Zhou Shiling, and persuaded: "Sister, don't just care about picking up vegetables for me, you also have to eat more meals yourself, so as to supplement nutrition." You see, you are pregnant with a child now, and you can eat the food of several people by yourself, and don't suffer the child in your womb. ”
When Zhou Shiling heard this, a hint of worry flashed in her eyes.
Isn't it?
She and her husband have been married for several years, and they only had children this year. It's not easy for this child to come, she was injured last time, she almost hurt the child, but she can't let the child suffer with her anymore.
Zhou Shiling eats very actively and is not picky at all. As soon as she heard Bai Jiaojiao say which dish is nutritious and which dish she eats can make her recover quickly, she obediently eats what dish.
When the meal was over, Zhou Shiling couldn't help but snicker when she looked at the empty plates on the wooden table.
I'm afraid that more than half of the good dishes on this table were eaten by her.
Bai Jiaojiao quickly saw Zhou Shiling's thoughts, in fact, she was indeed hungry, and she had eaten more than Zhou Shiling for this meal. said: "Sister, to be honest with you, I rarely eat so many dishes at home. My aunt is in charge of the house, and she can't afford to eat anything, and she can't eat a few fresh dishes all year round. I'm eating at your place today, and I'm really happy to be able to eat the delicious dishes fried by my sister Suxi. ”
When Zhou Shiling heard this, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "What did you just say?" Your aunt is in charge of your family, and you are reluctant to eat well? ”
She knows all the people of the Bai family. Bai Jiaojiao's father and brother have a lot of money to receive, and every time they win a battle, they can also get a lot of rewards.
It stands to reason that the silver taels earned by Bai Jiaojiao's father alone are enough to support a large family in the Bai Mansion.
But Bai Jiaojiao's aunt still has to be so frugal, for what?
Bai Jiaojiao looked embarrassed and said: "Sister, I rarely have enough food in the house, and after my mother died, there was originally a nurse to take care of me. Later, for some reason, the nurse suddenly disappeared, and then in order to save some money, my aunt asked my cousin's maid S to take care of me and her. ”
