Chapter 125: The heart is higher than the sky
Bai Jiaojiao stretched out her hands to take the note, smiled and said to Su Xi: "Sister, his handwriting is very beautiful, right?" ”
"That is, they all say the words like their people. He is good-looking, handsome and doesn't look like a mortal child at all. You say, can his words be pretty? Su Xi looked at Bai Jiaojiao, smiled mischievously, and asked.
"Do you need to ask?" Bai Jiaojiao saw that Su Xi dared to do so in front of her and Zhou Shiling, and did not hide her admiration for Lu Yu, and hurriedly said according to Su Xi's meaning: "Sister Su Xi said that his words are good-looking, so it must be good-looking." No one can doubt this. ”
Bai Jiaojiao and Su Xi chatted for a while, only to hear Zhou Shiling ask: "Sister Jiaojiao, you said that you followed the Queen Mother and their sisters to Mohu Lake today, and met Bai Qingyun and her aunt Shen Tuying?" ”
"Yes." Bai Jiaojiao replied truthfully.
When Zhou Shiling heard this, she looked at Su Xi with serious eyes and asked, "Didn't I ask you to investigate the matter related to Bai Qingyun's family before?" You went, why didn't you find out that her mother spent nearly three hundred taels of silver to make her a pink Confucian dress? ”
"Miss, I'm really sorry about this." Su Xi's face was embarrassed.
Bai Jiaojiao can understand Su Xi's mood very well, and at the same time, she also knows that it is not easy for Sister Shiling to ask Su Xi to investigate. The silver taels that her father earned were kept at home to support the family.
Her aunt dared to put the silver quietly into her own box, and what else could her aunt do?
Zhou Shiling thought about it for a while, and felt that there was something wrong with this matter.
Jiaojiao's sister had told her before that her aunt Wan was a very thrifty person. Although Jiaojiao's sister's father earned a silver tael, which was kept at home so that it could be raised
Family.
But Wanshi is reluctant to buy it, and he is reluctant to buy it. Jiaojiao's sister eats at home, all year round, eating and eating, that is, eating a few unpalatable dishes.
Zhou Shiling couldn't understand, how could a person who was reluctant to spend money even on groceries be willing to spend money to ask a tailor to make a Confucian skirt?
Bai Jiaojiao saw Zhou Shiling's puzzled face, and she also guessed that Zhou Shiling didn't understand much about Bai Qingyun's two mothers and daughters. Then he asked: "In this imperial city, the tailor with good craftsmanship is afraid that there is only the master of Zhouji tailor's shop, right?" ”
Anyway, in the memory left by Bai Jiaojiao in the original, there is not much information related to these aspects. The reason why there is this information about Zhouji Tailor Shop in my mind is because the sister of the shopkeeper of Zhouji Tailor Shop, who was previously ordered by the Empress Dowager Bai, made clothes for Bai Jiaojiao.
That person seems to have been selected to serve the Empress Dowager Bai in the palace because of his outstanding appearance and ingenuity at a very early age.
That person took care of the Empress Dowager Bai in the palace for a period of time, and won the trust of the Empress Dowager Bai. Xu is because the master-servant relationship between that person and the Empress Dowager Bai is not bad, and later the Empress Dowager Bai helped and asked the emperor to marry that person.
Whether the person was given by the emperor as a wife or a concubine, she couldn't find much information in the memory left by Bai Jiaojiao to her.
Bai Jiaojiao only heard Zhou Shiling say: "The master you are talking about, the craftsmanship is only middle and upper-class." The real master with good craftsmanship is the sister of the shopkeeper of Zhouji tailor shop, and she turned out to have made clothes for the Queen Mother, do you say that the craftsmanship is good? ”
Hearing this, Bai Jiaojiao nodded slightly, "There are not many tailors who can satisfy the Queen Mother, and the shopkeeper's sister is one of those few people." ”
Zhou Shiling and Su Xi listened to it, and said in unison: "It's good to understand." ”
Bai Jiaojiao felt a little embarrassed, she had known about this for a long time. At this moment, she only wanted to know about Bai Qingyun and Shen Tuying.
Those two nasty women don't show up sooner or later. But when the Queen Mother and Qin Zhaoyi took her to swim in Mohu Lake, and she danced on the boat, they appeared.
Mohu Lake is adjacent to the land of Weiyuan, and from the imperial city to the land of Weiyuan, it is necessary to pass by the Mohu Lake.
If Bai Qingyun and Shen Tuying only passed by there and didn't say this or that to Lu Yu, then in her opinion, it seemed understandable.
But the key problem is that Bai Qingyun not only appeared on the shore of Mohu Lake at a special time, but also wore the style of Confucian skirt that Qin Zhaoyi made for her, which appeared in front of Lu Yu's eyes.
If Bai Qingyun didn't go to see Lu Ying with a purpose, she would never believe it.
Anyway, she has to figure out what kind of heart Bai Qingyun and Shen Tuying have when they go to see Lu Yu?
After clarifying this matter, she thought of a way to deal with Bai Qingyun and Shen Tuying.
Bai Jiaojiao looked at Zhou Shiling and Su Xi, and saw that their expressions were a little serious, and they must be thinking about this issue seriously, so she said: "I suspect that the dress that Bai Qingyun wore today was from the sister of the shopkeeper of Zhou Ji's tailor shop. In this imperial city, outside the court, I really can't think of a second tailor with better craftsmanship than that man. ”
Zhou Shiling teased Bai Jiaojiao and said: "You care so much about the Confucian skirt that Bai Qingyun wears on her body, it's not because the Confucian skirt she wears is the same as the Confucian skirt that Qin Zhaoyi gave you." ”
Su Xi repaid his lips and smiled.
She also saw the Confucian skirt brought back by her Jiaojiao sister, which was really the same as the skirt worn by the fairy in the painting, which was very fairy. A beautiful woman like Jiaojiao's sister, wearing that Confucian skirt, can really bring out the temperament of Jiaojiao's sister.
Bai Jiaojiao did not deny Zhou Shiling's point of view, "Yes, I really mind Bai Qingyun doing this." ”
The reason why I mind is because the Confucian skirt worn by Bai Qingyun's scumbag must be her father's silver tael that Wan secretly enjoyed, and gave it to Bai Qingyun to make clothes.
Bai Qingyun's father has never used money to support the family, Wan wants to make clothes for Qian Bai Qingyun, if he doesn't do that, where will the money come from?
You must know that when Bai Qingyun lived in Baifu in the past, whether it was forcibly taking away her new clothes to wear, or having Wan find someone to sew clothes for Bai Qingyun to wear. Bai Qingyun has never worn such a beautiful dress.
It is understandable that Wan's is such a door-picker, and he is kind to her only daughter Bai Qingyun. Just thinking about it, no matter how good and generous Wan is to Bai Qingyun, he won't take out three hundred taels of silver at once to make a Confucian skirt for Bai Qingyun, right?
After all, the Wan family lives in the Bai Mansion, and when he was in charge, he would feel pain when he spent a penny.
Unless the Wan family has full confidence and thinks that Bai Qingyun appears in front of Lu Yu with the most beautiful posture, after getting along with Lu Dang a few more times, he will definitely be able to marry into the palace and become the princess of His Royal Highness the Second Prince. Then, Wan's investment can be rewarded, and it is worth it.
But judging from the current situation, Lu Jue's attitude towards Bai Qingyun is relatively indifferent. Even if Wan spends money and dresses Bai Qingyun beautifully, it can't change Lu Jue's attitude towards Bai Qingyun for the time being.
If it wasn't for Bai Qingyun who lied in front of Shen Tuying and hid something, it was that the skirt was not bought by Bai Qingyun with money, but something she used to exchange for others.
As soon as Bai Jiaojiao thought about this, she told Zhou Shiling and Su Xi her opinion.
“…… I dare to say that no matter how much Wan loves Bai Qingyun, he will not be willing to spend so much silver taels to make a dress for Bai Qingyun. If she was willing to spend money, I was afraid that when she lived in Baifu in the past, she would not always take away the new clothes my father gave me and enjoy them for Bai Qingyun to wear. ”
Zhou Shiling nodded slightly and said, "Your aunt is such a thrifty person on weekdays, if you make me believe that she can enjoy a few hundred taels of silver to buy clothes for Bai Qingyun, it will be difficult." But I can tell what you're thinking. ”
Bai Jiaojiao looked at Zhou Shiling with stunned eyes, "Let's talk about it." ”
Zhou Shiling leaned sideways, and when she was about to answer, she suddenly felt a faint pain in her lower abdomen, and hurriedly reached out to caress her lower abdomen, and said, "Sister Jiaojiao,...... I hurt! ”
Seeing Zhou Shiling asking her for help, she hurriedly walked to the bed and comforted Zhou Shiling: "Sister, don't be afraid, with my sister here, you will be fine." ”
Bai Jiaojiao said, sat on the edge of the bed, and cut the pulse for Zhou Shiling.
She saw that beads of sweat were oozing from Zhou Shiling's forehead, and her face was pale. It was very different from the Zhou Shiling she saw when she first returned to the house.
Bai Jiaojiao carefully cut Zhou Shiling's pulse, and found that Zhou Shiling's pulse was not stable, and she had qi deficiency and blood deficiency. But during the days when she was taking care of Zhou Shiling,
Aren't they all well conditioned for her?
Why did she leave the house a few hours today, went to the palace, went to Mohu for a trip, and when she came back, she found that Sister Shiling was not very well?
It stands to reason that Sister Su Xi is a good sister of Sister Shiling, and Sister Su Xi has taken care of Sister Shiling for so many years. In any case, I can take good care of Sister Shiling.
Bai Jiaojiao comforted Zhou Shiling softly: "Sister, you're fine." I'm going to get you the pills, and when you take the medicine, it won't hurt. ”
"I may have had a tire gas." Zhou Shiling could hear it, Bai Jiaojiao didn't tell her the truth. Although this was the first time she was pregnant, she knew for sure that she was uncomfortable.
Thinking that Jiaojiao's sister didn't say anything, she should be taking into account Su Xi's feelings.
Zhou Shiling said to Bai Jiaojiao: "Don't hide it from me, you can't hide it!" ”
Su Xi looked stunned and asked Bai Jiaojiao: "That's right, Sister Jiaojiao, you tell the truth to Miss." How could she suddenly be unwell? ”
Bai Jiaojiao saw that Su Xi was also asking herself, so she said truthfully: "If I hadn't given my sister tocolytic medicine during this time, I'm afraid my sister would really have fetal gas at this time." But fortunately, my sister had used fetal pills before this, and even if she ate those things, it wouldn't hurt her sister and the child in her sister's womb. ”
If Zhou Shiling hadn't asked that sentence herself, she would definitely not have told Zhou Shiling the truth so directly.
The people of the Dajing Dynasty, who doesn't know that the person who raised Zhou Shiling is the prime minister; And Zhou Shiling's father-in-law is also the imperial historian; Zhou Shiling's husband and Zhou Shiling herself are both the commanders of the Jing army.
If anyone harms the fetus in Zhou Shiling's womb, it hurts the grandson of the Prime Minister, the grandson of the Imperial Doctor, and the biological children of General Yun and General Zhou.
When the time comes, I am afraid that I don't have to wait for Zhou Shiling's husband to return triumphantly and seek revenge on that person. I'm afraid that that person will die under the sword of the prime minister, and he will go to bury Zhou Shiling's child.
There are only a few ministers of humerus in the court, and the emperor sometimes has to give them a little thin face when making major decisions. Not to mention ordinary people?
Su Xi grew up in the Zhou Mansion with Zhou Shiling since she was a child, and she knows how much the Prime Minister loves Zhou Shiling's junior.
Bai Jiaojiao saw Su Xi slap herself hard, she felt very distressed for Su Xi, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Su Xi's hand away, and persuaded: "Don't be like this, Sister Su Xi." Sister Shiling is really fine, just take some medicine. ”
After that, he quickly went back to the house to get the medicine, took the warm water brought by Su Xi, and took care of Zhou Shiling to take the medicine. For the sake of safety, Bai Jiaojiao gave Zhou Shiling another needle, so that Zhou Shiling could recover sooner.
Su Xi shed tears of grievance, and explained softly on the side: "I have always been like my sister taking care of Miss, decocting medicine for Miss, and cooking lean porridge for Miss. I...... I really didn't put anything in Miss's medicine, I dare to swear to God......"
